IKE BMY - REVIEW. JOSH. T. JAMES, Editor & Propr WILMINGTON, N. C , MONDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1881. Entered at the Postoffice at Wilmington, N. t;., a secona-Uau Alatter. TUrtTAKIPPQURTlON. The rew York Time of a recent date gives a plain and practical state ment of some Tew of the workings of the present iniquitous tariff. We copy a portion of tbe article : About 35 years ago, when the writer was 15 j ears of age. he made the follow in comparison : His father wag a me, chanic. Id the family were ihe father and mother and 11 children. Tbe father, mother, an older brother and the writer supported themaelres and nine younger member of the family. The gross earn iugs of ihs four productive members of the family were about $800. Since ev erythiag was purchased for the sapport of the family, about 500 was paid out for articles the price of which was affect cd by tbo tariff, on some articles the tariff was 50 per cent ; on some as low as 10 percent. .A low average would be 20 ? per cent. ' It appeared to the writer that ni3-father's family piid $100 to support the National Government ; that the lour productive members of tbe family paid $100, or 2 o apiece to tbe National Uov crument, besides supporting themselves and the nine non-prod aeius members of the iamily. In the same town was a State Senator, lie was worth in rea estate and money loaned out $30,000 His family consisted of the father and . m mother, two sons, wno were men, and tne yoan daughter. Oue son assisted his father in L-gal business, the other was a teacher. The gross income of the family was at least $3,500. I heard him say that he bought ubout $210 worth o articles each year on which there was duty. It appeared to the writer that the Senator s family pud 50 to the Malion al Government, or that tho four produc ing members paid $12 50 and supported themselves and onj non prodaciojj mera br of the faniilv. The writer made these comparisons: Our family,' without one dollar of property, except household stuff and clothing, piy slOO natiooal tax. Senator with 30,000, pay ;0 Each productive member of our. family supports himself and two aod'ot,c qnar ter heloless persons and has no property to help in doin" it, aud pays $25 nation al tax. Each productive member of Senator family supports himself and one-fourth ot a helpless person has the forth of the income of 830,000 to help him do it, and pays $12 50 national taju Is such taxation lust and equal? Did the fact that in our family there were nine helpless persons render it our duty to pay twice tax? Did the fact that we had no property, aud Senator H. had $30,000. make it our duty to pay twice the tax the Senator's family paid? Is such taxation just and equal? I re member another incident. A prosprous neighbor, who was a high tariff man, was discussing the question with my father, a frca trader. Father had just purchased a dress suit. He took a pen ciland paper and handed Mr. S. the fol lowing statement: Goat of cloth in England . . $10 00 Tariff, 50 per cent. .... 8 00 Importers' expenses and profits. 4 00 - 11 1 i. " 1 - t - - ? i ia argument. If tbe publishers had ad Jed to their list, "How to wia at Cards' and "Fistiana," it would hare "proved i strong incentive to eDgage in the work and would have been equally as appro priate. To induce persons of more ma tare years to labor for an increase in their subscription list, we would suggest-: that the publishers offer "Bb IngersoH'a lectures azainet Christianity." There is nothing like havisg a large subscription listand, as the chremo busicees is played out, other inducements most be offered- We have received from Messrs Li thaxn, Alexander & Co., cotton com mission merchants, of New ' York, their circular containing the report of the cot ton crop of the present year. The crop of last year amounted to . . . 6,605.750 bales The estimated crop for this year . . . 4,620,130 bales Total $28 0d "Now," said he, 'I had to piy $3. tariff on that suit. I could have got it for S20 with no tariff. I had to pay $28 for it. lean see easily what the tariff wt me on that suit. Now, will you set mo down alike bill of benefits and show 'me where the tarig returns to me$8,oreven 8 cents 1"' Mr. S. began to talk of pro tection to industry, home trade, home market, higher price for home products, and higher wages and increased prosper ity, etc. "Mr. S.. " said father, "set down what each item would be without tariff, what it is now under tariff, show the amount each ia increased; prove your figures to be facts, not fancies that they are as undeniable as mine. Then, when you have done that, prove that myself or any other laboring man, or ordinary farmer, or mechanic is bene fited 10 cents in a year by protection,M as you call it. Give me the facts and figures, not assertions, theories, and loose declamation." "Well," said Mr. S., have you any objection to supporting the, gov ernment?" "No," replied father, "I have cot. But I want burdens to be equal. . I pay $100 tariff, -and sapport my large family out of my wages and j the wages of my wife and two sons. You pay about $25 and have a good property, aud your family are all producers. Is it just? 1 still want to know if I did cot pay $3 bounty out of my, pocket to American manufacturers? I want to know why I should do it, and what I get for it?" I have never heard his queries answered. Can you do it? , THK WAY THKV DO IT. "We have received No. 6, Vol. II, o : " -.r ... -the Chxirch Mirror, published at Bos ton, Mass. It is gotten op in excellent style and the articles are ably written by Eoine of the distinguished divines of the country. It offers many inducements, in the way of premiums, to subscribers, many of which are useful and valuable;' bat among the list we notice that it of fers three styles of revolyers, which, we beg to think, is harldy in keeping with a religions publication. If any arrange xn2ut could be made whereby canvassers ould be furnished with the pistols in a J ranee we doubt not that "young Bos toa" would do a thriviogbustoess in get ting subscribers. With the pistol in one hind and the subscription book in the other it might be mado profitable and much valuable time saved that ia thi ordinary way would ba wasted Decrease this year . . 1,985,620 bales -Tbe estimate for this year is made np m mm as follows: At" Washington Agricul tural Bureau from 334 conn ties, Oct. 15 . 4,634,725 bales At Bradstreets,. 900 coun ties, Oct. 24 . -. . 4,olG,378 bales At Latham, Alexander & Cos. 1,910 replies, No vember 1 ... . 4,709,287 bales The average of these estimates is taken as the estimate for the ciop for this year, which is above stated. The largest number of bales in the estimates of. the correspondents is 6,459,000 baUs and tho smallest is 3,000,000, a difference of 3,450,000. It is probable that later reports may. show an increase in this year's production, but it is hardly poesi ble that the crop will approach near to that ol last year. The embezzlements by Capt. Howgate of the funds appropriated by Congress for the Signal Service Bureau, uow foot up, as jar as discovered, $160,000, end it is believed that additional nusappro priatioos will be brought to light. There have been already four indictments fouu against Capt. Howgate, and the grand jury is soon expected to present a nun indictment. During the palmy days o Capt. Howgate, when he maintained two expensive establishments in Washington kent a hunting box in the mountains' a -4 sailed his own private yacht on the Po tomac, and fitted out Arctic expeditions, with no legitimate income beyond the salary of his lineal rank in the army, no one ever seemed to think that there was anything out of Ihe way in his princely expenditures. Now it is very easy to see whose money was making the mare so. " third street, "I thought it was O'Dono vin Rossi, so I did." Ptdtv - Tennor assert "a winter of some sort has-got to be experienced." We are glad to be informed of this beforehand, however much it pains us to find that our summer clothes will not do for the rest of the fiscal year. Lowell Citizen. Said-Brown, grandiloquently: 'I bare no money to give to any ef these public call3. My duty is nearer. I must sup port those whom I hold dear!" "Yes," replied Fogg. "I understand. You mean to say that you are""like the Au burn prison self supporting, you know." Boston Transcript. "I love ray wife," young Mr. Osculus, who had been married only six weeks, was saying, "I love my wife as no other man doe?." And then the rippling smile of approbation went around the company and died aw-iy in whispering giggles in shadowed window scats and dimly lighted corners, and the young man feltthat be had failed to make, himself, understood just as he wished to be.

Indications, that the Republicans contemplate a revision of the pension system are increasing in num ber rapidly. ': . .
