A schedule of rates for longer periods fur- k d!1 y d2f 1 on New York or Charlotte, and iJeeont7 fder or Registered Letter , il i umci wise we wui not ne re sponsible for miscarriages.. MR. HKWITTS POSITION. Mr. Abram S. Hewitt, of New York, whg is himself largely inter ested in the manufacture of iron, has written a letter to the Albany Argus giving his views upon the tariff ques tion and the course that ought to be pursued in the line of reform. He attributes the great depression in cer tain branches of our industries to over-production, stimulated by exces sive protection, which production was forced more rapidly than the home and foreign demand could meet, and consequently stagnation resulted. Hence not only the manufacturer suf fers, but the employees suffer in re duction of wages made necessary by the unprofitable business of the em ployer. After pointing out the evils he then goes on to suggest the reme dy, thus: So far as any relief can be provided by legislation for the existing state of affairs the remedy must be found, first, in freeing raw materials from all duties ; and, secondly, in imposing rates of duty on manufactured pro ducts not more than sufficient to make good the difference 'in thtf amount paid for labor in the produc tion of any given article in this coun try, as compared with the amount paid for the same labor in other coun tries with which we compete For this purpose the incidental protection afforded by revenue duties will, as a rule, be found sufficient when any protection is needed. I am aware that the last proposition involves the protective idea to some extent, but to no greater extent than is the logical outgrowth of our past legislation. If we had never had pro tection we should not be required to Day any attention to the rates f !abor, which are the result, not of protection, but of other conditions i entirely independent of legislation. But the protective system" nas un doubtedly built up some branches of industry which otherwise might not, in consequence of the higher rate of wages, have existed, inasmuch as this is their misfortune and not their f auk. no sensible legislator would strike those industries down by the sudden abrogation of the protective system. We should, nevertheless, endeavor to gradually reduceits evils to a minimum until in the progress of time it shall have given way under natural laws to a better and sounder condition of affairs. But in this assurance of inevitable progress, there is to be found no justi fication tor tne runner maintenance of duties, which only tend to reduce the wafc es of labor.without conferring benefits on any interest whatever: duties which only impair our ability to sell commodities in the open markets of the world, and hinder the natural and healthy growth of busi ness. All such unnecessary and hurt ful obstructions should be removed without delay ; and it will be a mock ery of duty if Congress should fail to open the way to "freer trade, and wider markets ior our proaucis, through any fear of consequences to politicians who have not the courage of their convictions, or have no other convictions than the desire for office. The mere politician follows public opinion ; the true statesman instructs it. His constant aim should be to make clear .to those who depend upon their daily labor tor their aaiiy bread the real basis upon which their wel fare rests, and then to trust to tneir intelligence and votes for support. Success on any otner conaraon wouia be dishonor. Any party which ex pects to get power by playing the game oi niae ana seeK in pyiiicB does not deserve, and wm not gam, the confidence of the country. The only living issue then between the two great political parties which divide the country, as l understand it, is this wnetner i ne revenue sys tem Bhall be reformed, aDd upon what basis of principle it snail be set tled. ... . The Republican party believes in the doctrine of protection., It insists that protective duties are constitu tional and are necessary m order to insure to the workingmen a fair re muneration for their labor. It would, therefore, imp se duties as nearly Srohibitory as possible on articles pro uced in-this country, and as a policy make free those articles which are not or cannot be produced here. The Democratic parcy insist mat, the constitution merely provides for the imposition of duties lor revenue and not for protection, except so far as duties so imposed necessarily af ford incidental: protection; that pro tective duties can not, and do not, favorably affect the general rate of (wages ; thai legislation is powerless to 'permanently increase the remunera tion for labor, although it may seri ously impair it; thet protection can divert labor and capital from.more profitable into less profitable channels of industry. It recognizes, however, the fact that the protective svstem has been bo long, in force, and is so intrenched in judicial construction as to make it idle now to raise the con stitutional question; that the amount of capital and .labor now engaged m the protected industries is too great to -admit of any legislation likely to do them Any real injury; that the onjytrefoim $ow; possible is in the re duction tnd removal of duties which are no longer needed to insure their xwntinuediexistence that these jexces ive duties are in reality obstructive to their prosperity ; tnai uuueson raw materials should be removed, because such duties epnstiuite aractjical Re duction fia.the wages-ofc labor. If the question were an open, one, the Democratic party would prefer to raise the public revenue by duties imposediupon articles inot produced in thcoufe and tfust to natural laws for the developm nj oi iteindu- CHARLOTTE, N. C, THURSDAY JANUARY 3, tries. But the question is foreclosed by the great extent of the protec.'eo industries replacing dead industries, which otherwise would have thriven. The Democratic party, recognizing the necessity, therefore, of reforming the tariff in such a way as not to de prive these industries of the incidental protection afforded by . reasonable revenue duties, insist that the protec tive system shall not be enlarged, and believes that moderate duties pro ducing on the average of years a suf ficient revenue are adequate for pro tection, at the only times when it is now needed; that is, in: bad times. wnen our foreign competitors would seek to get rid of their surplus pro duct in our markets, . which, consid ering that an idle population is the greatest social calamity r we must then preserve, in order to give em ployment to our labor engaged in the protected industries; that at all other periods extra protective duties merely give excessive profits to one class at the expense of other classes, ending in over-production, stagnation of business and irregular employment for labor, powerless to protect itself against the errors of legislation and selfish action of capital striving for unreasonable profits. The condition of the business of the country at this time is conclusive proof that the pro tective system cannot relieve either labor or capital from the consequences of over-production, which is its legiti mate result. Between the two political parties representing these two opposing views the country is soon to make its choice. The Republican party of fers no remedy for the policy which has produced the existing paralysis of industry. The Democratic party proposes to open the way to freer markets, fuller trade, and better wa ges by abolishing the duties on raw materials and removing the purely obstructive features of the tariff. If the Democratic House shall frame and pass a judicious measure of rev enue reform, carefully adjusted to the actual condition of our suffering industries, and the Republican Sen ate shall refuse to - concur, the issue will be fairly joined. The people can then decide whether the do-nothing party now in power shall be replaced by an administration which will re move the artificial barriers to healthy progress. When this is done, and not till then, will the country realize that it is no longer an infant at nurse, but a veritable giant, only requiring "ample room and verge enough" for the free play of the vast energies. Mr. Howitt believes in reform; be lieves in lightening the burdens upon the people, but he . wisely recognizes the necessity ot pursuing this reform cautiously, with discriminating judg ment, so as not to cause a shock in our industries nor to deprive them of a "reasonable amount" of protection. In other words, he believes in inci dental protection, agreeing substan tially with the Democracy of Ohio, Pennsylvania, New Jersey,' New York, Virginia and North Carolina, as announced in- their platforms.

CHRISTMAS RECESS. Opinions of Senator morgan What is Thought of Hewitt's Letter 4 Civ it Service Reform BillNorth Caro lina Unofficial Pec pie in Washington Gen. (Ransom's Committee Clerk ship. Correspondence Qftfie Observer. Washington, Dec si. Last even ing a friend of mine, who is an inti mate friend of General Morgan, the distinguished Senator from Alabama, had a conversation with that gentle man on the course of politics and the prospects of important legislation this session. General Morgan said Ihe policy of the Democratic party was aggressive. The time, he thought, "was passed when the Democracy had to take its cue from the Republicans. We make the issues; they are on the defensive. He applauded warmly this offensive programme, and pre dicted the best results to accrue here from. While he did notgo into par ' ticulars as to what the House Com mittee on Ways and Means should report, he said that the reforms at tempted should be thorough, so far as there was ability to carry them into, execution. This would require a long session, extending possibly to August. He did not believe in a half hearted policy. Too long already had the party acted on the defensive. Its line, he rejoiced to know, was to be bolder in the future. As to the internal revenue, in which there was much warm interest in several of the Southern States, he would suggest the retention of at least a portion of the tax and some modification of the svstem bv which the people oppress ed could be relieved. General Mor gan is in hearty accord with the strict school of Revenue Reform, of which Beck and Vance in the Senate, and Carlisle, Morrison and Tucker in the House, are the most zealous ad vocates and able exponents. Hewitt's letter to the Albany argus covers the subject of the customs rev enue at every essential point or con tact. Its tone is regarded as very moderate, but its suggestions are far reaching. Bill H. R., No. 1110, is directly in the line of civil service reform. It was introduced by Gen. R B. Vance. This bill provides that it shall be a misdemeanor, punishable by fine not exceeding $5,000 and dismissal from office for any officer under the United States Government, including the three departments, to accept of a free pass or ticket over any railroad, or to accept as a sritt, except as a lawrul legatee, any stock or bonds of any national bank or telegraph corpora tion; and that all such officers oi em ployes of the General Government, holding such pass or railroad ticket or stock or bonds, in any way influ encing official action, shall immedi ately surrender such passes, etc. The second section provides for forfeiture of commission and fine in discretion of the court. The third section re lates to officers, attorneys and em ployes of railroads, national banks and telegraph companies, who shall violate the provisions ot tne act and be convicted of the same in any dis trict court of the United States, makes the punishment not less than $500 nor more than $5,000 in each and ev ery case. ' he fourth section repeals all acts or parts of actP inconsistent with the presen act. This measure. or something like it, would seem to be necessary. The abuse is one which strikes at the root of our liberties. The movement to eradicate it ought to extend to the State legislatures. NORTH CAROLINA PERSONALS. I had a visit this morning from the grandson of my beloved friend, the late Bishop Atkinson. Johnie is the son oi Col. John wilder AtKinson, ot Wilmington, and is going to school to his father s brother, Mr. Roger Atkinson, in Baltimore. North Carolinians universally will regret to learn that the health of that ad mirable woman, the Bishop a widow, is rather: infirm; nothing serious is apprehended, however The son ot M.ai. jonn w. Cameron, formerly of Wilmington, is a student at Georgetown College! Maj Cam eron is a law partner of Gen. Bel knap, (office near the Treasury on New York avenue,) and resides at 1,- 710, F street. Residing here also are Mai. Wood bury and Mr. Sully Wheeler, sons of the North Carolina historian. The former has a law office in town, but resides A few miles in the country. Dr. Cook, formerly of Granville county, Mr. Mitchell, once a citizen of Newbern, Mr. Bishop, (a druggist,) also from the latter city, these, with the gentlemen named in the above paragraphs, are some or the resident unofficifd exr-Carolinians. Mr. Daniel R. Goodloe, the journalist and historian, although residing here, would make a vigorous protest if the "ex" were placed to his credit. Not long ago I introduced him to Gen. Corse, of Alexandria, as a former citizen of North Carolina. "Not at all," ss id Mr. Goodlcx ; "I am always a citizen of North Carolina." Fab. H. Bushee.
