We now hear frequent, and apparently earnest Demo cratic appeals for Southern manufactures, and the protection of Southern manufacturing interests. It is becoming quite fashionable among Admin istration men to ulk in favor of “the protectiv e standard;” of indirect or direct, incidental or posi tive protection, as the case may require; of specific protective duties levied by Congress; of counter vailing duties for the protection of Kentucky to bacco, Kentucky hemp, Kentucky and Tennessee iron, and the producta of Missouri; and of the in terests not only of the American planter, but also the American cotton spinner. You know our late Democratic Legislature re solved unanimously, by way of appeal to Congress, that it is the duty of the United States to take care of “American tobacco.” Our Democratic organs generally have indorsed this protective move and are to-day rolling on the tariff ball and urging the expediency of raising the tariff on iron, silks, wine, brandy, silver and gold ware, &c,, to the exorbitant rate which other Govern- inentB are charging on tobacco. Also here, and in Tennessee, I learn, they are urging a tariff of something like ten dollars a ton on pig iron, and twenty on bar iron, a,s necessary to revive the decayed and abandoned iron furnaces. Out of fifty furnaces in blast four years ago on the Cum berland and Tennessee Rivers, only seven are said to be in operation now, for want of Federal protection. They claim that “adequat* protection” ought to be extended to our manufacturers, “to enable them to compete with the cheap labor and capital of England.” Home manufactures in every de partment and on a large scale would be found profitable. They say many kinds of goods can be manufactured cheaper South than North, The merchant can lay in his goods the cheaper, the nearer the manutacturer is to him, “The true policy of the South and West is to manufacture their own cotton and wool, and to consume their own corn and beef at home,” To hear Democrats below Mason and Dixon’s line talk like protective tariff men, uae some of the samj argun'ent# in behalf of American labor and the development of American resources that Mr. Clay and Mr, Webster used, is a little wonderful Recent events seem to be opening their eyes to their actual condition. Louisville, cor. N. y. Times. The O^cial Cats of Paris.—“In the Budget of the Imperial Printing oflSce, which is now be fore the legislative body,” says the Pays, “is an i- tem which has excited considerable curiosity,—it is for cats. It appears that, in order to preserve the stores of paper, printed and unprintcd, from the ravages of mice and rats, a considerable num ber of cats have to be kept in the establishment; and the expense of giving food twice a day, and of paying a man to watch over them, is sufficient ly great to form a special item. These cats were once nearly the cause of war between the director of the Imperial Printing Office and the director of the Archives whose gardens are adjacent. The latter has in his garden a small artificial river, and he kept in it a number of rare aquatic birds. He perceived that the number of his birds de creased almost daily, but he could not tell how; at la.'st he discovered that they were killed by cats, and he set snares, by which a number of these animals were caught, “The keeper ot the cats in the printing office perceived his feline stock diminishing, and he suspected the workmen of t'le establishment of killing them. But one day a cat arrived with a fragment of a snare round his neck, and led to the li.scovery of the whole truth. The director of the printing-office thereupon complained that his cats were killed, while the director of the archives said that he would not allow his birds to be de voured, but at last an arrangement was made to the effect, on the one hand, that every issue of the printing office should be closed to prevent the inva.sion of cats into the gardens of the ar chives, and, on the other, that in the event of one by chance escaping it should not be put to death.” Slave Wurshij).—In an interesting letter from Raleigh, N, C., a late Northern writer says, after speaking of the churches of that city; “The after noon is devoted by each of the I^rotestant church>.s to teaching the slaves. These meetings are held in the basements or conference rooms of the churche.s; also in a mis.sion chapel e.'^tablished for the slave population in the suburbs. 1 attended the meeting held in the basement of the Baptist Church. About five hundred slaves were as sembled, all dressed neatly; some ot the women wearing dresses of rather dashaway style. The meeting was led by two white nicnibers of the church. The exercises consisted of singing, read- 1 ing the Scriptures, with explanations (by the ] leaders) and pray^T, in which the negroes partici pated. Their petitions were very touching, and I in language so chaste that tlie ear would be offend ed very rarely by an^’ language peculiar to the negro. Their expressions were those of the truly ; child-like Chri.-stian. J hey thanked (jiod that I “He gave //(- m the Darling of His bosom to come j down into this low ground of sorrow; that in Him whosoever believeth may have full joy here and j glory everladting on high.” They prayed that I “God would then, flntt >yri/ t{rn\ pity the weeping j Marys, lilt up the sinking Peters, and confirm the I faith of doubting Thoiiiases;” all their expressions I indicating an intelligent and genuine fiiitli. Their j singing was very interesting. 'J'he songs were I gencraily started by the leading .singer, (ji slave,) j and were familiar to all, -As they sang .some ol I the lines, they would take each other by the I hand to rejoice togetlier in the luture j'»ys of ■ which they sang as if already possessing. They seemed to enjoy to the full, without any of th:H I boisteroii:-‘ doniuiistration so common in all parts of the country. This J{apti?t Thurch atinibers >500 } members, JoO of whom are ,;jlaves. The pastor I told US tliat the slaves were as consistent memV>ers 'as the white«, if not even more so 'J'hey coti- ' tribi;tod about four hundred dollars toward the new church now ne.'xrly completed ” Didn’t Ll/if tii f'tumtry.—An officer of tiie I'nited States Army, who htis travelled, thus ex presses his opinion of Arizona; “We have just travelled over tin' niuch-talked- of Territory of Arizona. Such another (Jod for saken, untimberftd. unwatered. a.id unfinished country never beiore fell iimler my vision, and my optics have run over a good deal of what is called bad country.” ■
