State benator. I I 1 53 I T. 3 3 I 03 2 3 I ai Tni3 campaign which ended last night was probably uo more remarkable in any respect than for tho utter absence of arguments advanced by tho Republican party in behalf of that parly's retention of power. Of all the hundreds of speeches made, printed and circulated by Republican orators from the profound Mr. Evarts and tho "brilliant" Mr.

Blaine down, or up, to the backwoods orator not a line of serious talk on the grave questions of tho hour that directly touch the people was vouchsafed. Tho customary claims, of course, were advanced of having wived the Union, freed the slaves, developed the industrial resources of the country and the like but no sound reasoning was given those who to hear it. Xo Hepubliean orator from to November contributed one earnest sentence of thought worthy the considerat ion of reflecting men. Appeals to prejudices and passion comprised the stock-in-trade of all the Republican speakers, from their leader down, or up. 81' 178 Spirits PUBLIBIIED EVERY WUDNKBDAY EVENING BY JOHN 11.

Herodotus mentions this tunnel, which served for providing the old seaport with drinking-j water. It is completely preserved, and eon- tains water-tubes of about twenty-five centimetres in diameter, eaeh one provided with a lateral aperture for eleansing purposes. The tunnel is not quite straight. A comparison has been instituted between the work of a European employee and one in the United States. It appears that employees of the cotton mills in England will work up 2,914 lb.

per annum, and those in Germany from 1,200 lb. to 1,500 lb. while the operatives of the United States work up no less than 4,850 lb. The amount of wool worked up in England by each operative averages lb. In the United States, 1,040 lb.

and in Germany, 1,000 lb. In flax the average is lb. for England, and 715 lb. for Germany in silk, 71 lb. for England, 87 lb.

in the United States, and 59 lb. in Germany. It will thus be seen that the operative in the United States works up 100 lb. of cotton to (17 lb. worked up by the English operative, and lb.

in Germany 100 lb. of wool against 77 lb. by tho English operative, and GO lb. by the German 100 lb. of silk against 8Ua' lb.

by the English and no lb. by the German operative. It is consequently claimed that, ns the American artisan furnishes more work in a given time than the foreigner, he is entitled to the higher wages he receives. When the present mode of electing the President was adopted, it was feared that the electors chosen by the people would be tampered with and that intrigue would defeat the wishes of the people. The original idea was that the electors chosen would exercise freedom of judgment and will In regard to the man for whom they would vote.

But the caucus and the convention have set that aside, and the electors are mere agents of the party to cast a certain vote for the men already put in nomination by the political parties. In the November Century Slv. George Ticknor Curtis, a statesman, not a politician, has an elab orate paper on the question "How shall we elect our Presidents." After reviewing the history of our elections, and showing the obvious evils of the present system, he pro poses that the electors be chosen as now, and that they all be assembled at Washington on an appointed day, then and there to proceed to the election of a President and Vice President. These electors should be untrammeled in their choice by the action of any previous convention, and the good sense and patriotism of parties are to be relied on to secure this freedom for them, The November Atlantic Is noteworthy as containing a very interesting installment of the autobiography of the late Ilnery James under the title "Stephen Dewhurst's Autobiography."

Kef erring to the question of protection in his Union town speech Governor Pattison said The sole interest that business lawfully has in government is that the prosperity of the masses shall be promoted. The roots of business sink deep into the body of the people, and it draws its sustenance from all parts of the social organizations.

The true protection needed to sturdy capital capital that does not require a governmental crutch is that the general burden of the people shall be reduced, their cost of living lightened, their taxes equitably distributed, their revenues honestly collected and honestly applied, and the iratfairs conducted by prudent, pure aud courageously upright officers. This is the sort of protection that business needs, that labor needs, that protects but does not subsidize, without which all other protection is vain. It is embraced in the demand of "honest government," to which the candidacy of James G. Blaine is a defiant menace, and of which the most conspicuous representative in the land is Grover Cleveland. In the discharge of every public trust reposed in him lie has shown resoluto integrity, faithful zeal and commanding capacity.

He has not hesitated to do right from timidity or motives of expediency. He has been free from the arts of the demagogue as from the wiles of the jobber, and has been fortunate in arraying against himself equally the hoodlums of society and the traders in polities. The character of his friends is not a greater tribute to this world than the character of his enemies. He is to be congratulated for both, as they alike attest the fidelity of Grover Cleveland to the cause of honest government. NOTES OF INTKKKST.

Owing to the lateness of the hour at which it was received we were unable to present the address of the National Democratic Committee, to the people of the United States, in our last issue but some of the subject matter contained therein should not be allowed to escape attention. The address clearly exposed the fallacy set up by Mr. Blaine that here was great credit due to him for having aided in imposing duties upon imports for the purpose of protecting American labor. The address pointed, to tho fact that the national debt at the elose of the war amounted to To meet the annual interest 011 this accumulated indebtedness and the. amount required for the sinking fund intended for its redemption, as well as for the current expenses of the government, the paramount necessity arose for largely increasing the custom duties.

Although the tariff enacted in consequence was framed by the Republicans, its direct purpose was not to protect American industry, but to acquire enough revenue to discharge year by year the recurring obligations of the government. The performance of this obligation would have been incumbent upon the party in power in any event, whether that party were Democratic or Republican, and no credit would attach to either for doing what is absolutely required to be done if the government is to keep good faith with its creditors. The protection of American industry was not the motive of the tariff; it was simply au incident of the situation in which the country found itself at the close of the war, and the address very justly says that at that time heavy duties would have had to be imposed r. JHaine had never been horn, or if the Republican party had ceased to exist1 The difference might have been, as the Raltimore Smi says, that under a Democratic administration a fairer discrimination in the levying of duties would have been exercised, and a lighter burden imposed on the people during the process of payiug off the public debt by conducting the affair of government on stricter business methods ami through a greater watchfulness over expenditures. On the 1st nf January, tsri, the national debt, notwithstanding the reductions that had been made in it during the previous eighteen years, was 1.884.171,7.

To meet the interest upon it, together with the, large sum required to pay the constantly increasing pension list and the current expenses of the government, still necessitates the maintenance of high la-riff duties, and American labor is now, and will thus continue to be, amply protected as far as it is in the nature of a lax on consumption to protect airy one nnr is here, nor can there be, any possibility for years to come for the Democratic party to change the result. That party-lias repeatedly and emphatically disclaimed any desire to interfere with the tariff, except in so far as it would be of public benefit to make a more equitable adjustment of its schedules by transferring a part of the burden from the shoulders of the people, to those better able to bear it. Such a revision of the tariff would be a public blessing. It would stimulate industry instead of checking it, and by getting rid of the hundred millions of surplus now taken j-early from the pockets of the people for no conceivable reason, would place our manufactures Sua position to compete abroad with the products of other nations. It would enlarge our power to exchange commodities and would take from Congress that constant incentive to extravagance which a phethorie treasury and an enormous surplus constantly invites.

To speak of Democrats as "free traders" is an absurdity. So long as it is point of honor to regard the paying of the interest of the United States as a sacred obligation, and to provide for the pension list, free trade, even if it were desirable, is an impossibility, and no nmount of declamation on the part of those who charge the Democratic party with a purpose to bring it about can ke it otherwise. The national Democratic Committee, speaking for the party, expressly declared "that in revising the present apportionment of duties it will protect the labor and capital Involved in existing industries, and that it will always protect American labor and enable it to compete successfully with foreign What more than this could be reasonably asked? In point of fact, even if the party wauled to do what it emphatically disavows, it could not make any radical change in the tariff for two reasons One is that a serious reduction in it would cripple the government. The other reason that a Republican majority in the Senate is adverse to any reduction whatever, and the only thing accomplished by the bulk of the Democratic members of the House of Representatives last session was to show that they had the desire, although they lacked the numerical power, to give the people some relief, even though the extent of it at best, would have been but small. It may as well be said here that in regard to the cry that has been raised that the Democratic agitation in favor of a revision of the tariff has caused the shutting down of mills, he blowing iit of furnaces and the closing of factories, nothing could be more transparently absurd, and this, we believe, now that the election is over, the Republicans, themselves, will admit.

The true cause of these proceedings is overproduction, and, however employers may disguise it. their object in stopping work is to get rid of their surplus stock at better prices by restricting production. It is a defensive measure on their part, by which they cannot easily lose, but which usually inures to their benefit. The really serious consequence of such acts tall upon the operatives and working pco- pie for such stoppages throw them out i of employment, regardless of the. priva- tioifc that the logs of their customary i wages may iiitlici upon them.

It "Will tmrprisn ninny to know that tlifc fimplc making and selling of men's clothing is the greatest local industry in Ntnv York city. It employs nearly double as many people as any other single occupation, not taking into account the workmen who manufacture and finish the cloth. Inside the city limits about eight hundred establishments are devoted to the biisiucsd, with an aggregate capital of about twenty-five million dollars, employing fifty thousand operatives and paying out fifteen million dollars year in wages.

And while import- have fallen oft' live ami one-half per cent, exports have decreased En value nearly eleven per cent. The changes in prices during the last year will not account for this marked decrease; it denotes a real falling oil' in trade. As measured in money, our exports of beef, pork and dairy products are nearly lcs in the last nine months than in the same nine months of last year; of breadslulls, nearly and petroleum and cotton have likewise been affected. In the same period we have exported in specie more than we have imported, as compared with like excess of ShTIil'O1--1 in lrtfti. Thest returns, ns an exchange remarks, show something more than mere depression in business and invite a serious and careful study.

Vrt the returns do not show anv such result, The new German revision of tho liible is finding as much learned and unlearned opposition as did and does the Knclish revision. After years of toil the work is now about finished. At a recent general pastoral conference of the Saxon Lutheran Church, held at Dresden, Professor one of the principal revisers, delivered an address of remarkable lire, and convincing force, entitled "The llevised Iaither-liible; an appeal to the. Lutheran Church." and proposed five theses, declaring the necessity of a revision, and approving the corrected version made by the JIalle Commission.

Not withstanding the logic of his address and the general applause of his views, a determined minority declared its opposition. Such sentiments, as "5,000 changes have been made, the half of which were unnecessary, and C00 of which are false. "the revision opens the wav for an entrance of rationalism, ny "the laity will take offence at the changes" were boldly uttered. At last, however, the theses were adopted with considerable unanimity. The Theological Society of Lubcek has also had the matter up for discussion, and has criticised a number of changes and proposed others It asks that the new version be not published for the next two years.

Tins appointment by President Arthur of the Hon. Hugh MeCulloeh as Secretary of the Treasury in place of Gen. Gresham, resigned, has met with general commendation. Mr. succeeded Mr.

Fessenden as Secretary of the Treasury in 1805. and held the position four years under tho troubled period of Andrew Johnson, His administration was surrounded by difiiculties, both political and financial, far greater than any which his successors have been called to face, but was nevertheless eminently huc-eessful and praiseworthy.
