THE PHILADELPHIA IN QUIREB. MONDAY. JULY 9. 1883 THE PHILADELPHIA INQUIKEn three years later it was declared not to be an American dollar. Hence the confusion and the difficulty in decidinsr what to do Aannal Consnmptloa of Beer and Spirit a A recent calculation about the consume- enrtof the spirit and beer uet annotliy la Illinois baa led tbe St Lonis Republican to a similar calculation for tbe whole ooantry.

We krow from the government a'lsticj that there are about 170,000 re' all liquor dealers in tbe country. If tbev have an Income ot atvmt $15 rfav. the Republican finds that the total is 1930,730,000 annually. During the latest fiscal year taxes were paid on about 73,030,000 gailoD ot spirits and nearly 17.000,000 barrels of beer. A gallon of spirits Is said to make reerly a hutdred drtckt, costlnar about ten cents each, thai yielding ab-at The beer consumed is about 4 216 003 000 pit which at five cents a pint makes about Thus in two alffwent way the inclusion Is arrived at that the paople of thl courtry pay anoufellv fir and whUky which they drink 000.

tage of the man whose daily toil supplies his daily bread. As there is no possible advantage, but, on the contrary, every disadvantage to the artisan and mechanic to be derived from the taxation of food staples, a true protective policy seeks to relieve these first products of the soil from ail revenue impositions. Protection will develop manufactures and eventually reduce costs, as we in this country know by experience; but all the protection or prohibition in the world cannot increase the natural resources of the ground nor add another acre to the boundaries of the farm. Cattle raising especially requires but the minimum of labor, and the working people of England would not earn a farthing the more if the importation of beef should be strictly prohibited. It would be absurd, of course, for a free trade community to resort to protectionist arguments, but it should be plainly understood that sound protection would never impose burdens on the food of the poor.

If England should exclude our cattle from her markets she could only do it as an arbitrary act based on no policy recognized by political economy. It is a matter, however, which we can afford to rest easy about, as in case the noble Briton cannot get American food staples in his own country he will ome here to get them, which in the end would suit us quite as well. The London Speriator, in a trenchant and courageous article, sets forth the reasons why Mr. Gladstone should and did consider Prince Leopold ineligible to the post since given to Lord Lansdowne. The English Government, it holds, cannot afford to put a viceroy in a place of control where he cannot be controlled.

A Prince is too strong to bear the check line. In case the amiable Duke of Albany should make a mistake he could not be recalled without an affront to the Queen. The Spectator hints that so close an approximation of second-hand royalty might not be pleasant to the neighboring great and sensitive Republic," in which it overrates our sensibility. We could bear with equanimity the whole Itoypl Family in Canada. But it finally brings out the true objection Emigrant Englishmen are Republicans at heart.

The British social system is historical I here, anA therefore endurable: but it is not a good one in itself, acd but for tradition it would not last. It is not the business of tbe British Government to plant it in all its colonies. Hot tin out of Prince in colonial gardens wilt not alter the character of the soil. That is carrying the axe ta the root of the tree with a vengeance. An emigrant American in England could strike no harder blow.

It is well that the character of the political in Canada is so clearly understood in England. It would probably be easier to raise sympathy for Prince Leopold as a Prince on this side of the St. Lawrence than among the French inhabitants and Irish who make up the large proportion of the Queen's subjects on the other. A twig of royalty is to us a picturesque object, to be run after and saluted with trumpets. He is as alien and harmless to us as a pillar from the Giant's Causeway or a prehistoric bear.

We can afford to be civil to him. But to the Canadians he is a possible danger and a real weight. Tuey know to a penny how much they are now taxed to support the seven governments, and how much more any small imitation in stucco of a royal palace will cost them. The genuine Canadian owes all his traditions, his reverence, his instinctive obedience to his church; he cares nothing for the house of Hanover. Ho is in too close proximity to the States not to have learned that the best government for him is not the one backed by the strongest historic prestige, but the one that will give him the best chance to put beef into his jot au-feu and money in his purse.

If the government in England understands his temper and wants, and humors them, it can hold him as a remunerative, passive subject a few years longer. There is not much danger that our government will ever be called on to redeem the money it is now coining or has lately coined for the Sandwich Islands, because that does not bear any inscription representing it to bo American coin, nor has it ever had a legal tender value given it by act of Congress. If the politicians in Congress who enacted the trade dollar laws tiad been gifted with ordinary business sense we should not now be in trouble over that unfortunate "token." It was made for private customers, just as medals are sometimes mado; it was for a specific purpose, and not for circulation in this country at all. It should, therefore, have been so stamped that it could not be mistaken for an American dollar. But this would not have been satisfactory to the owners of it, who wished to make the Cbinefe believe it was an American dollar.

It should bo borne in mind, right here, that there was no deception intended in this; the coin at that time was worth a dollar and a little more in gold, and is yet superior in value to the Mexican dollar, which it was intended to replace. It was so valuable and liecame so popular in this country that it was readily accepted as an American dollar. It is less valuable now, not becauso the silver has been taken out of it in sonvj mysterious manner, but because, first, the gold value of 420 grains of silver is considerably less in 1883 than it was in 1873; and decause, second, Congress has taken away the legal tender quality of the coin. The career of the trade dollar is a vivid illustration of the necessity that exists in this country for some fixed and intelligent monetary system. It was a dollar, but not intended for an American dollar.

By what is now said to have been a blunder iu the law authorizing its coinage it was made an American dollar. By what is now 6oen to have been a very grave error TUB MEMORY OT OABWIMLD. As we recede from the active scenes brought to an awful close by the assassination of the 2d of July, two years ago, the broad outlines of a noble life and the grand proportions of a lofty character are more plainly revealed. In the perspective of time President Garfield's career begins to be recognized as a mighty potentiality in the history of this Republic, and the citizen, soldier and statesman is awarded that high place he will hold through all futurity among the national heroes of America. It is well to rear monuments to his name, to build up shrines for patriot pilgrims to visit in after ages, to perpetuate bis lineaments in bronze and stone for our children's children to revere; but his lasting monument will ever be in the hearth of the people, in their appreciation of his worth and their undying faith in his integral manliness.

A more fitting and abiding tribute, therefore, to the memory of Garfield than storied urn or animated bust is the voice that gives expression to the sentiment of the people toward their lost leader, uttering in words that will be heard by the generations yet to come the love and reverence and honor paid in common tribute by fifty millions of freemen. To speak for the whole people in the supreme moments of our national experience has ever been one of the most delicate and trying responsibilities that our great men are called upon to assume. On the death of President Garfield, the one man pre-eminently qualified to speak for the many was the President's chief counsellor, the one who stood by his side when he was struck down, who was with him through all the terrible days of that tragic summer, the man who, by the unquestioned fiat of necessity, was called to the forefront when the head of the nation fell, upon whose shoulders the whole bur den of the administration was thrown, and in whom the people reposed such confidence that not a breath of dis trust troubled the peace of the land, they knowing that, though the President died, the government still lived. Sec retary of State James G. Blaine it was whom the people, through their representatives, honored with their behest to speak in the order of Garfield's funeral, the offi cial ceremonies at the Capitol being the closing act of the national obsequies.

IIow the heart of Garfield's warm personal friend must have been wrung by the task the nation imposed need not be publicly noted, but the Memorial Address given in obedience to this behest bears the immor tal stamp of soul-felt sincerity, and appeals with power to the sympathy of every right-feeling American. The address was delivered before Congress on the 27th of February, 1882, and has now been published by the government in appropriately iK-autiful form. It is a masterly tribute, instinct with vigorous truth, as an exposition of character, and, as a memorial, touched with infinite tenderness and breathing the very spirit of the sad hour when the civilized world stood in tears while all that was mortal of Garfield was borne to the grave. More truly than any n.p.terial structure reared by human bands this abiding work of a great mind, in spired by love and honor, will stand as the people's cenotaph to the memory of the dead President until time shall be no more. ''Not marble nor the gilded monuments of I princes shall outlive his eulogy, but in these contents the revered name shall dune more bright when wasteful war shall fctatues overturn and broils root out the work of masonry; not Mars' sword nor wanton fire destroying this living record his memory.

The more the difficulty of reaching Lieutenant Greeley party, at Lady Franklin Bay, is appreciated the greater becomes the wonder that any government facial should have had the hardihood to order a body of men to take up their quar ters in that desolate spot, cut off from all communication with the world and from nil relief in case of trouble. By some almost miraculous chance the party reached the designated spot in safety and proceeded to establish themselves, but since then all efforts to reach them have been unsuccessful. Another expedition, is now on the way, with no very sanguine hopes of getting through the ice this year, nnd its members are already calculating on the most available spot to "cache" a mautity of provisions for the use of Gree ley's party in case they are obliged to leave iheir fetation and try to mako their way homeward on foot. The worst of it is that nobody seems to know just what the Greeley expedition is expected to accomplish. Certain meteorological observations are to lie taken, it true.

They are somewhat in the naturf of the Signal Service notes telegraphed over the country three times a day, but that they will ever lie of any practical use, especially that they will be important enough to warrant the exposure so many valuable lives and the incur ring of so much hardship, is scarcely regarded as a possibility. If the Proteus ind the antic succeed in reaching the ice-imprisoned men, it is to be hoped they will bring the party home and leave the frozen ocean to take care of itself. There are evidences in the reports re- reived by late London files that the stock- raisers of England are importuning the British Government for a prohibitory ariff against the importation of American attle, and, further, that these importuni- ies are received with a degree of tolerance, cot to say favor, amazing to contemplate as shown by an administration professing the loftiest kind of free trade principles. It is one of the fundamental axioms of protection that the ultimate object aimed for is the welfare of the laborer, the advan shows.

The mildness of the eights and the general clearness of the air la the latter part ot May, and during June up to the summer solstice, combine to make this the most favorable season for viewing the double stars. Fortunately, at this same season many of the mast beautiful aiid celebrated double stars in tbe heavens are favorably situated for observation. A double star is one which appears single to tho naked eje, but which when viewed with, a telEFccpe Is seen to be compose! of two stars, generally of different magnitudes, and often of different oolors. There are also triple Blare, quadruple stars, octufle Btnrs, and stars In clusters as thick as a swarm of golden bees.

The interest iu these worderful objects is greatly heightened when we rt fl ct that they are not mere shining specks points, but huge suds, which appear minute simply on account of their immense distance from us. In many cases direct proof has beea obtained that thesa double and triple suns are idually held in leash by their mutual gravitation, and are awicging around and around like idsnts boldlng one another at a-m's le-igth. If there are any planets obeying tbe attraction of these grappling su'is, tbe tcor.e presented to then must be strange beyocd description. This singularity ts heightened by the contrast in me colors oi mar of tbe double stars Some of these colors atd tbe manrerln which tbey are contrasted, prcdnce most charming fleets. For Instance, tho star called Mlrao, In Bootes, really consists of two stars, one ot which Is orange, and the otter pure ses green.

Weather Indications for To-day. For New England and the Middle Atlantic States cool, fair weather, preceded by local rains in the morning, northeast to northwest winds, and higher barometer. Indications fob To morrow.

Cool and fair mother is indicated for New England and the Middle States during Tuesday The Department officials havo come to the sensible conclusion that General Crook shall be permitted to manage the captured Apaches in his own way, and his suggestion will, accordingly, be adopted. The Indians, who have surrendered with the understanding that they will be placed on the reservation, will be placed there, Lut under military surveillance, to which they do not seem to make any objection. This will keep those quiet who are now in nominal custody, and will bring in the scattered bands that are still in the mountains waiting to learn the fate of those who have surrendered. Agent Wilcox and Ids peaceable Indians will not be affected by the movement, as the hostiles will be separated from them and will be kept away from the agent, as he will be kept away from them. At the same time the plan of putting the Indian reservations under control of the War Department will receive a fair trial, and there is every reason to believe that the result will be satisfactory.

Thus the vexed question of the disposal of the captured warriors seems to be settled happily, and probably to the greatest advantage of all concerned. One of the best arguments against removing the Mint, or interfering with its work in any way, except to give it the needed increase of facilities, is to be found in the satisfactory figures presented at every annual settlement. This is the one government institution whose work is always satisfactory, and against which fraud, extravagance or dishonesty can never be charged. While the law allows the deduction of a small percentage of the amount of metal passing through the Mint, on account of wastage, the limit is never exceeded and seldom reached. Last year, for example, the amount allowed for wastage in the amount of gold and silver coined aggregated $97,811 '33.

The amount which actually was wasted, or lost, was $83013, and some of this will be recovered eventually from the sweepings of the floors and the soot of the chimney; and, though this amount is legally supposed to be lost, it is nobody's perquisite, but goes to the credit of the government. The Philadelphia Mint is run on business principles and managed ty careful men. It is doing much better than the law expects of it, and it would be fcheer folly to disturb it. The people who sue so anxious to get their hands on it could not do better, and would be very likely to do a great deal worse. CIIX KOTiCMh.
