Written for the Blatimorc Sun. Oae of the very earliest truis.ns ol political economy which the study of . : i.t.i:.i i ii- i 1 1 - science ewioiisueu wvs mac me main source of the wealth of nations is com merce with foreign peoples. It is not necessary here to repeat the familiar irgiuuents of Adam ; Smith, John otuart Mill and other great authors; 110 fact in science is better established than Jlii, that nations get rich by pash- ingto-the utmost theroduction of the things in. the makmg of which tney excel, and exchanging them for tho.se projucti in the making of which other conn tries: excel. It is simply the pnn ciple of the division of i tbor by which a village community thrives carried into operation in the larger business of world. In fact, all the great laws of tliescieii.ee have their source in the liumble .dealings of the- hamlet. " The laws j which are evolved there in the petty transactions between man and man are the same in principle as those witicb control all other busiuess, great or small, in which" the s.mie human nature enlistetl.. Bearing this in mind, let us look further into the pretensions of protec tionists that our tarff taxation is the cause of national wealth, and that it must be kept up if our wealth is to in crease; It must always be remember ed: that money is not wealth, but pnly the medium by which wealth is exchang ed. Real wealth consists hi the posses sion of objects of utility or pleasure. Now it is desirable that as far as it is possible to do so with profit, a country should supply its own want. Hence most good writers on political economy admit it is to the advantage of countries in their infancy to encourage domestic manufactures1 by extraordinary me.tns. The first necessity of such n country, struggling to establish itself among the nations, is to secure a home supply , of the things necessary t j its existence of which it might be deprived by wur, in case it were dependent on foreigners. ! Bat that period soon passes, and then comes the questio.i of a surplus of pro ducts. , So long as ciur cotfntry is pro ducing only its own supplies, of course its wealth is increasing day by day; and if we made ; all j that we required and could make no tbor we could attain to national wealth by d pal in with each other only that is to say we could attain to all the wealth pos- Mch ill-gotten wealth can hire to per sible in such a state of things. But prt human reason can make auything humin industry canotptop without de- cay and ruin. After it lias : surjplied j our owu country, one or two things' must taxe pi ace; eitner a ioreign mar ket must be found for our surplus prod nets or, we must' cease to make any. If we make 'more than we want And can't sell it, this lessens the""val he of wnat we have, and our aggreg ite wealth is not increasing a particle; if we stop production at the point of Jjonie .sup ply, then all the labor and capital of the country beyond that limit is un employed, and again our wealth ceases to grow. Common sense points out that we must have .a market for our surplus, and high tariffs tend unmis takable to prevent this. They are in tended to prevent it, for- as all' foreign commerce is simply exchange, nations will not buyrorn Vs unless they pay us with their products. With a tariff wall around our -country they cannot trade with us. " v : - The wickedness of this policy is only equaled by its folly. There is no country up.m earth prepared to become so rich by foreign trade as these United States, because there is none so abun dantly supplied with all.'the material and all the conditions of production absolutely none. There is not labor enough in our sixty million of people to dig up all of our coal and iron ore in a thousand years; our forests, though rapidly decreasing by lavish wmte and the tariff premium we offer for their destruction, are still ra03t abundant. We hare a practical monopoly of cot ton', a staple wh?bh clothes two-thirds of mankind, whilst in all food-' product pur vast and fertile plants are the gran ary as well as the wonder of the world. In addition to all these advantages which are the gift of nature our pop ulation, tinder the stimulus of .free in stitution, has developed more indus trial energy, and more inventive genius than any other people tino:i earth. Their labor saving inventions for an epoch in the history of our race, and h ive multiplied the productions of bu- ma:i labor beyond the dreams of the poet. The statistics show, and candid men everywhere admit, that the best trained labor to be found in Christen dom cann 3t equal our workmen, measur ed by the amount and qnanity of their work. And yet, in the face of all this, and whilst the sound of our boasting A it is still heard, we declare in the next breath that we are unable to com pete with our inferiors, shut out their products by prohibitory tariffs, deny ourselves the riches and the political friendships which are the fruits of for- eign commerce, ana coniemn tnis n.i'hty repository of unborn wealth and human energy to the narrow liui-J its of the home market! Vv ith the ore and the coal under his feet, the Penn sylvania iron master declares he can not make a ton of pig iron without a tax of seventy-five per cent, on the product of his nearest rival, who is from thr eto four thousand miles away beyond the sea. So t is with the cotr t n spinner, the w o!en ve.ver, the S otter andill the rest. Offer to re uce the duty, even slightly, on any one of his products, and he will cry Murder" loud enough to wake a sleep ing city, and declare that. the slightest reduction will destroy him instantly and forever. If he would consent to die alone it would not be so alarming we might attend one funeral but he is equally positive that the country at large will perish with him. He wants no foreign trade of course. Th home market is good enough for H'm. There the competition of the foreigne: is forbid len by law, the competition of his neighbors, when it gets troublesome, is regulated bv a ring or trust which stops production atid keeps up' prices a dividends in iy demand, and there is none to molest him or make htm afraid. W en by chance he miscalculates and finds' himself po."S3ed of more goods than ae can sidl at home, he ships them abroad a id markets Iheiu in competi tion with the foreign paupers. If he suffers any loss he makes it up out of hi3 own people, who are not allowed to buy anywhere else, and he goes on prospering and to prosper. In this way we have failed to secure the trade of foreign nations. It is all done at the instance-and for the benefit of the protected classes. By it their control the home market; if prices tend down ward thev buoy them up by combina tions; if the supply is getting too large they shut down their mills, and turn their operatives into the street?. Hav ing control of the engine, they move forward, backward or stand still as suits their pockets. Mean while con sumers are at their mercy, and the farmers 'worst of all. Their market prices are fixed abroad by the compe tition of the whole world; their pur chases are made in the restricted home m;rket. If they want woolen cloth they send tljeir wheat to Liverpool and sell it for, say one dollar per bushel; there the cloth they need eould be bought at twenty -five cents a yard one bushel of w'heat paying for four yards.- But&i tariff of seventy-five per c;nt. prevents them from doing that; r thev bring, the dollar back, and from a Massachusetts man trrey ouy w.th it two yards of the same cloth. The farmer has lost two yards of cloth, and the public wealth is that ranch less. The manufacturer has made that much, not bv fair uud Voluntary exchange, j but an unjust aud unconstitutional law. Not all the sophistry of all the talent out 0f 8Uca a transaction. The farmer cannot at will . shut down hjs operations and discharge his laborers his productions are perishable and will not Keep over lnaenoiteij; therefore lie is pbligeil to selj his surplus at any prree he 'pan' get 6fx loose it altogether. 1'hereforje. it is that year after year seven-eighths! of the Vxports of this country fire agricultural products. The farmer ;pupports the manufacturers, maintains our foreign trade and ex change and I does his full share in bearing the public expenditures beside; and all this be does with the most nec essary conditions of political economy reversed i their application lo him being forced Co sell in the cheapest market ind to buy in thedenrest. Small ia oi.r foreign trade is, there would be jrniversal distress and finan cial niinfwithput it. It furnishes the' exchange which pays for whatever we are oblige! tof buy abroad keeps our precious I metijls at : home, and main tains tlnf credit of our country. Iti could be -raadc double its present vol ume in if brief time if we would only legislate! a f little in the interest of the whofe country and not in that of a class. We Have twice the population of Greater" tian, ten tiine the material resources and thirty times the territory, yet she has double the foreign trade that we have. Ours has been protect ed to death. ;lt has been fitted with a Chinese shoe and can only , grow by distortion. In the same way our merchant marine as perished. We undertook to protept it; we not only imposed heavy dfties bn the material of -which ships are built, but we excluded for eign ships from all internal and coast wise trade, aid tried to exclude it from theoperi sea also by refusing registra tion and the American flag to any ship in whole or in part made abroad.

Of these States North Carolina expends less money for schools ier CAPin on her whole population than any otheraexcept South Carolina and Georgia, and only about one-half as much as Virginia or Arkansas. i The column of "expenditures per capita pf total population affords a very fair comparative view of what we are doing in public school matters, and in the com parison we are put in no favorable light. Y ben we consider carefully the column of "Total assessed value of property" aud calculate the rate of taxation necess ary to raise the total amouuts expended iu the different States wc find jour rate would be less than that of any of the States uamed except South Carolina and Georgia. . , If all the expenditures were raised from tax on property the rate would oe 39 cents on $100 in Maryland; 33 cents in North Caronina; 28 cents 4n South Carolina; 46 in Tennessee; 43 cents In V trginia; 21 cents in Ceo gia; 44 cents in Alabama: 60 cents in Mississippi: 66 cents in Arkansas; 65 cents in West Virginia: 44 Cents in Florida; and 59 cents , in Mis souri. If it be said that some of these States have permanent State funds the interest of which goes to the support of the schools, it will be found upon examina tion that this is really a very small item comparatively, audthat ANNUAL taxa tion in all these States, as well as in all. the Northern States is mainly relied upon to support the schools. I have not selected a year that would make the worst showing for the State. Looking back about four years I find that much the same proportions, existed and that the year I have selected shows us in as favorable a lieht as anv other. According to the assessed valuation of our property we are far from doing as much for public education as most of our sister Southern States. This is apparent not only from the proportionally smaller amount of money expended, but by the ?hort annual school terms, Virginia hav ing 118 days. Alabama 89 days Mis&tfip pi 78 davs. Tennessee 80 days, Arkansas 102 davs. while we have only 60 days. These figures seem to show not only that wc are far behind but also that, we ak ahlfi to do better. The total expenditure in the States above named was $17,833,185. In all Che States of the Union the expenditure was $111,304,927. 8. M. Finger, . Supt. Public Instruction- Homes in the South.
