Tariff Frlaftaff Tjpem. The Free Traders bare assailed another point in Protection, anil hope to gain the united anr. BOrt of the press in their behalf, by appealing to their selfishness. Howell's American Kaetpaper Reporter has inangnrateil it, and keeps urging it erervweek. even enclosing blank petitions to nnnmMnen.

for printers to sien. The scheme to place printing types on the free list. This, they claim, will admit the Scotch types in competition with those of home manufacture, as tbeyarerery much cheaper. if there is any need of protection to American mannfactnres, we presume that the manufacture of types is no exception; and it is a poor principle to advocate Free Trade on a single branch of enterprise, simply because it would benefit the one class advocating it. No person doubts that Scotch types can be sold cheaper than American, for the laborer who produces them receives smaller wages.

It is the same reason why all foreign manufactures are cheaper than American, and which makes protection necessary. It comes off of tlie laborer. But a majority of American printers do not want foreign types. American types are handsomer, and printers jiefer them. Ttikoore Dk Vixxk, of New York, one of the most accomplished printers in the United States, says that foreign types of the same name are different in size from those of American make, and are also different in height.

A printer using foreign types, conld nev er get sorts to justify or work with them in a pinch he would have to send to Europe for them, or the Scotch manufacturers would have to es tablish branch foundries in this country, in oppo sition to our own, when that 'cheapness would vanish, in the absence of Protection. Then, it is said, the tariff on types is a tax on knowledge. Thcreisagooddealofdemagogncry in this cry of tax on knowledge. Auy price whatever attached to books and newspapers, is a tax on knowledge. Taxes for building school houses and paying teachers, are taxes on, or for, knowledge.

Knowledgo is a costly commodity, in whatever shape we take it; bnt it is a tax that the American people can well afford to pay. We decline to sign the petition. Gettlng Thkm Mixed. We last week copied from some paper an article headed "Bolts," in which the writer got badly out of his reckoning, as in the following: The next bolt wae la 1852, when General Scott wsa nomi. natal over Fillmore sod Webster, both of whom care Scott the cold shoulder.

Fillmore and Bell ran on the conserva tire ticket and ct the electoral rote of Maryland only, but succeeded in electing Franklin Herce over the "greateat general of the age. The fact is, there was no bolting Whig candidate fur President in 1852, although some 1300 men in Massachusetts voted forDAXlELWEBSTKK after he was dead. The only opjmsition candidate to Scott aud Pierce was Joiix P. Hale, Abolitionist. Scott carried the four States of Vermont, Massachusetts, Kentucky, and Tennessee.

The writer mixes the Scott campaign of 1853, the Fillmore campaign of 1856, aud the Bell and Everett campaign of 18G0, in one jum-bledmass. Fillmore aud Hell never ran together on one ticket; but Fillmore and Doxklsox were the candidates for President and Vice President in 1850, aud carried the single State of Maryland. Something About Investigation'. We this week copy from the Wathena Reporter, the answer of the editor to certain statements made in the Report of the Investigating Committee. It illustrates the manner in which the whole thing was conducted.

Men are implicated, who are perfectly and who could prove themselves so; but they were not permitted to know that there was pretended evidence against them in fact, it seems to have been the design to prevent the summoning of witnesses to disprove rumors and rauduui statements. Men were present, anxious to be examined, but the Committee refused to hear them. Mr. Drknnixg was examined before the Committee, and could have told his own story about the Nenialia Representatives; but in stead of asking him personally, the Committee took the second-hand statements of somebody else statements -n Inch both Mr. Dr.r.N'xiXG and the Treasurer of Nemaha County pronounce totallv false.

But this is a fair average of the whole proceeding. Ear" The Legislative Woorm are having an unpleasant run of luck. At the lieginning of the recent session of the Legislature, it will be remembered, Senator JairI'S Wooi, of this State, was charged by a newspaper with' having been bribed, last Winter. He denonnced it as false, and demanded an investigation, which was had, and he was acquitted. About the same time, papers in New York charged Senator James Wood, at that 8tate, with having lieeu bribed by Tweed, last inter.

He. denounced it as false, aud asked for au investigation, which was had, but with worse luck than his namesake, for the Committee brought in a report of guilty.

Besides all these superior embellishments, there is the large extension sheet, containing a number of the latest designs for the toilet. We need not speak of iu literature. A perusal of it will repay all readers. "Excouragijco." A Missionary, writiug from Japan, states that "Bible selling is going on freely and prosperously, averaging in, Yeddo alone, one copy a day." Yeddo is supposed to be the most populous city on the globe, the claims of London and Pekin to the contrary notwithstand ing. The population is something near fonr millions.

Call it, for convenience sake, 3,650,000. At the rate of oue copy per day, or 365 in a year, it wonld require only ten thousand years to place the Bible in the bands of every person In Yeddo. Those missionaries have an exalted estimate of prosperity!

In this unique series of papers, now appearing in Seribner't Monthly, Mr. Warner, author of "My Summer in a Garden," is doing his best work. Here wo have in a pleasant fiction oftt talking gronp in front of an old-fashioned country back-log philosophic sngges-tion, sarcasm that smiles, not sneers, bright bits of description, social ont-looks, and, enlivening all, a fresh, "crisp, yet juicy" and delicious humor.

Back-Log Studies have been quickly appreciated by the press. The New York Tisie says that these sketches, "fur light, airy, bnt genuine delineations of character, have" rarely been surpassed by any writer of the present day." The Botton saya that "for delicacy of toncfa, quaint sentiment, and quiet humor, Back-Log Studiesase the best of things in their way." The Xation thinks that Back-Log Studies No. III. "renew and increases the evidence given in his previous performances that we have in him a hnmor-iat of real merit." Writing of one of these papers, theN. Y.

Mail says it is the "best thii.gbehas written, and the best thing in its way any American or English magazine has had for many a tray?" and the Botton Commercial Bulletin says: "Back-Log Stndies constitnte a decided hit in magazine literatnre."

A few days ago a difficulty occurred in the Southern part of Cloud connty, in which three men were wounded by shots and one killed dead. The following particulars were furnished tho Tojieka Commonwealth: Two Texas cattle men have been allowing their herd to eat the hay belonging to two brothers, named Dalrymple, who after a time claimed damages and this claim created a difficulty.

Canni-chael, one of the owners of the herd, swore that he conld whip any one of them, whereupon one of the Dalrymple brothers shot him torongh the body, and though he was living at last accounts, his condition is regarded as very critical. After being shot by Dalrymple. Camiichael fired at his assailant ana the ball lodced in his bowels. At this juncture7, 1. N.

Dalrymple aud Carmi-chacl'8 boss herder, Lewis, had a contest and shot a( eaoh other, resulting in the death of Dalrymple and the woundiugof Lewis in the shoulder. The Dalrymple brothers have always borne a good name in Cloud connty, and the one who was killed wasa'member of the Legislature in 1869. The surviving parties, who were connected with the" affray, are nnder arrest. A Kansas Max in Limbo. On Friday night Sheriff Maqnilken, of Doniphan county, Kansas, arrived in the city with a man named Gallagher in charge, and yesterday started with the prisoner for Troy.

Some time ago Gallagher, who is a butcher, liorrowed a snm of monev, Joseph Nixon, of that place, becoming seenrity for its payment.

The La Cygne Journal gives the details of the recent jail delivery at Mound City as follows: Mr. Jailor Blackburn let them ont into the hall about noon for rest aud recreation, and to all appearances everything was in usual good orden Sometime afterwards he started to go up town, and when a short distance from the jail turned about, and returning carefully looked in upon the prisoners and fonnd them. lounging abont as nana.

Being satisfied that all was right he he went away again, hut in less than twenty tuinnte they had broken ont and escaped, taking the thick brush liuiug the Little Sugar, which runs close to the back of the jail, and where" it is almost impossible to trace them. A pursuit was immediately organized, bnt at the time of writing this no trace of the fugitives has been discovered. The names of the prison-era are Alfred Reed, sent from here on a charge of breaking into saloons; Charles Smith, from Barnard, for stealing $70 in money; and Henry Smith. from La Cygne, for stealing boots, watch, dec They were all awaiting the sitting of the District Court. Renben Lake's saw mill, three miles southeast of Osage Mission, was burned on the morning of the 12th.

No insurance. The mill will be immediately rebuilt. The residence of Mr.A.Smithers, near Williamsburg, Franklin connty, was burned one day last week, with all its contents. Among the articles consumed were three guns, two revolvers, a chest of very fine tools, a considerable quantity of provisions, and $33 in greenbacks. Miss Sinithers also lost a very fine wardrobe.

The total loss, exclusive of building, cannot fall short of $1,000, on which there was no insurance. A man named J. W. Majors, of Wea township, in Miami connty, was arrested a few days.ago, charged with threatening to kill his wife. On examination he was fonnd to lie insane, and ordered to be sent ta the lunatic asylum.

For some canse or other, be was not admitted to that institution. He was taken to the poor farm on Tuesday last by depnty sheriff Eaton. A Topeka clergyman, Rev. John Kirby, has got himself into tionble. On Saturday a letter was received by the Postmaster of that city, from England, "inclosing papers to be served on the Rev.

gentleman in a divorce pending in "her Majesty's Court for Divorce and Matrimonial causes." Mr. Kirby 'prononnces the charge false, and says it is an effort on the part of his attorney to get his property. The good folks of Topeka are greatly scandalized at the development. Mr. Frankcnberger, of Mound City, and Mr.

Elliott, of Kansas City, came near being drowned in'the Marais des Cygnes, which they were attempting to cross iu a buggy. Their horse took them through. Three men have drowned at the same crossing. The school house known as the "Pleasant Prairie school honse," in Miami township, in Miami county, was burned dowu on last Friday night. The scholars lost all of their books, aud the Sunday school lost a fine library.

So says the Paola Spirit. Dr. Wliarry, of Alma, fell in jumping from his buggy, a few days since, and dislocated his right shoulder. The Vnion says that oulya fewuiouths ago he dislocated his left shoulder. In Kansas it is unlawful to catch or kill prairie chickens between the 1st of March and the 1st of August, or to kill or catch quail between the 1st of March and tho 1st of October, or to trap or net either off one's own premises.

Mrs. Fesrl, wife of the Hon. Silas Fearl, of unriiugton, was accidentally shot and killed by her son, a boy nine or ten years old, two nights ago. The dwelling honse of Mr. Thos.

Martin, living about eight miles northeast of Girard, was burn-ned by a prairie fire on Tuesday evening. A horse and calf were burned to death, and two families made homeless. The Colnrabns (Kas.) Journal of Friday says: Last night. Dr. Warner of the Girard PrirMwas rotten-egged while taking the train at our depot.

The persons who used the eggs were concealed, and when the train drew up. and the Doctor was getting alioard, they let fly their eggs, splattering the cars and the Doctor iretty-thoronghly." The Po8tofnco at says the Parsons Sun, was robbed on Wednesday night of last week, and the entire Eastern mail made up to leave iu the morning, a sack holding some three bushels, stolen. There were a large niimlier of registered letters in the sack. The thief broke out a pane of glass and then shoved up the window. The Neodesba Citizen says that farmer named Hild, living ten miles from town, visited Neodesba last Saturday on business with the land office.

During thedayliegot gloriously his team ran nway, throwing the man ont and fracturing his skull, causing almost instant death. He was a widower, and leaves five children, three of them quite yonng. The destruction of the Congregational Church in Fort Scott, on Thursday, was caused by a defective flue in the cellar. The fire there was readily extinguished, but the flames commnnica-ted aloft, between the roof and ceiling, and then it was not possible to save the building. The organ was destroyed with the church.

Last Saturday, Mr. W. H. Edmiston, whose farm is three miles west of Ameririis. went into a piece of timber belonging to his father, to get a load of wood, aud discovered a couple of Indians cutting timber.

He told them they were off their reservation, and must leave, which they did. Soon after they returned and told Mr. K. they had lost a knife, and asked him to go with them to look for it. This he did, and when they had got him over the line, upon the Indian reservation, one of them knocked him down with a club, and as he regained his feet the other attacked him wit li an ax.

r.lmiston succeeded in warding otr their blows, and finally made his escape, though considerably injured. Renben Lake's saw mill, three miles southeast of Osage Mission, has been burnt. The fire was discovered at about 5 o'clock Tuesday morning. March 12th, when the building was nearly burned up. The cause was accidental, and there was no insurance.

The mill will be immediately rebuilt. We are informed that Prairie Hill School House, in District No. 50, Knpioma township, was burned on Monday night. It is snpnsed to have taken fire in the night by a block of burning wood falling against the door of the stove and bursting it open. No.

blame is attached to any one. The loss is about $1,200: insured for $600. Champion. The Irving Reorder says that large and vicious catamount was trapped by Mr. L.

St rat ton, who lives at the west end of the bridge, on Tuesday night last. The animal had for some time leen a great annoyance to those living iu the. neighlmr-hood, having made sad havoc among the poultry, especially of Mr. 8. The beast weighed fifty pounds.

The Xeodesha Citizen says that Jim Hampton saw seventeen deer while on his way from Xeodesha to Sedan, Howard County, a few weeks ago. Deer are quite nnmerons in some parts of Howard Connty, and will be, no doubt, for many years, the rough and wild character of the County affording them freedom from molestation. We learn from the Topeka ComaonKealtk that on Wednesday the State Board of Agriculture abolished the office of General Superintendent, created that of Chief Marshal, and elected Capt. H. T.

Iavesttfattiwau The Leavenworth Timet of a recent date, publishes what it claims to be the evidence of the Hon.

Win. Spriggs, ex-State Treasurer, taken before the Joint Investigating Committee of the Legislature, during the- late session. In that testimoney we find a statement about as follows: F. H. Drenning, of Wathena, told me that he placed in the hands of the Treasurer of Nemaha County, the sum of $0600, to he paid to the two members of the House" of Representatives from that County, in ronsidera'tion of their voting for Alex.

Caldwell for United, States Senator. The following letter from J. C. Hebbard, then and now Treasurer of that County, fully explains itself: Sexeca, -March 9, 1872." Hox. F.

II. Drenning, Wathena, Kansas Dear Sir: The Seutorial Election Investigating Committee, appointed by the last State Legislature, report Hon. William Spriggs, ex-State Treasurer, as stating that Frank Drenning said that he placed $2000 in the hands of the Treasurer of Nemaha Connty, to be delivered to two of the members of the Honse from Nemaha County, if they voted for Caldwell for United States Senator, and if Mr. Caldwell had not been so slow, he would have secured Iwth for $1000. As I was then, and am now holding the office of Treasurer of Nemaba Connty, it is perhaps fitting that I should say that during the pendency of thesentorial struggle, and for a considerable time previous, and since that time, I have not met you that Hon.

Richard Johnson, and Hon. Adam Simons, the members from this County, (the post "office address of both being at this place,) bad no conversation with me in regard to the support of any one for U. S. Senator that fur the purpose of making the first semi-annual payment fur Nemaha County for 1871,1 left Seneca on Tuesday, the 24th day of 1871, and stopped at Atchison that night, leaving there on the next morning train for Topeka, and reaching the latter place after the Senatorial election was over. If any one can "rise to explain," bow and when and where, I obtained $2000 of Mr.

Alexander Caldwell's tnoney to assist him in securing votes for himself for, United. States' will' make an extra' effort to be grateful to him now, and from hencforth. Hoping that you will give this an insertion in the Reporter, and request State papers and the St. Louis Democrat to copy, I remain, most truly yours, J. Hebbard.

Now, if that is a correct statement of Mr. Spriggs's evidence, all we have to say is, that it is not true. We never made any such statement to Mr. Spriggs, or any other person. We said to him, as we may have said to many others, that we understood, or heard from others, that the members from that County had been "fixed," just as we heard similar charges against many other members of the Legislature; bnt we never said that re paid "to the Treasurer of Nemaha County, or persom, $2,000, or any other snm of money for the pnrpose of influencing their votes forUnitedStatesSt-nntor.

Andinallourconversa-tions with Mr. Spriggs, or other persons, the name of Mr. Hebbanl.or the Treasurer of that County, was notthonghtuf ormentionediunnywajr by us, with aiiythingconnecteil with theSenatorialelec-tion of last winter. Mr.Hebbardisanianof unblemished character, and has always been esteemed by those who know him, and we are free to say, that if we were going to buy any one, Mr. H.

is the last man in Northern Kansas we would approach with such a proposition. The post office address of lioth the members of the House from Nemaha County, is Seneca, and if any person desires to attempt to disprove onr statement, he can address'them upon the subject. And further, we say unreservedly that the two memliers from Nemaha are entire strangers to ns. We never. conversed with them concerning the Senatorial election, or upon any subject whatever.

Once for all, we wish to state that we never paid to any man, any snm of money, great or small, or any other thing of value, he being a menilier of the Legislature, or to any other person for any member, for the purpose of influencing' his vote for United States Senator, or for any otherpnrpose. We are willing to have this statement go before tho people of the State who knows ns, and we will lie satisfied to go with it before the final Judge of all, where the truth is and will lie known.

far Prealdrat-, I Tkaak Tea. We regret to leam that the soreness of Mr. Greeley's caput is not improving. He now denounces all national Conventions and caucuses, in his Tribune, and says they are no binding force. It is stated also that he privately says he will not support Gen.

Grant, if he is nominated. The cause of all this is that the evidence daily accumulates that the people don't want 11. G. for President, but, on the contrary, popular feeling runs more and more for Grant. We don't know that anvlsxly cares much about this singular course of Mr.

We are reliably informed by news-dealers in this city that the circulation of the New York Tribune is falling off iu Newark from eight to ten copies a day on the number which he himself serves personally to subscrilierH.

There are probably forty or fifty news-dealers in town.nndif.as it is reasonable to supjiose, there is a like ratio in the decrease among them all, it will not be many days before the Tribune will cease to come among or disturb any body iu these parts. Indeed the rapidly failing circulation of the Tribune must have been sensibly felt at the publication office, inasmuch, for the first time for years. thepapcV has been placed "on sale" to the news-deal-ers, with the privilege of returning all copies not disposed of. We are by no means surprised to leam these facts, for the Tribunal course for the past few months.has been such as to disgust Republicans; and as for the Democrats, while they ma- applaud its sentiments, they will lie the last iersnns in the world to extend it any encouragement in the shape of tangible patronage. Mean time tne Jeir i jtk limn is as rapidly and surely taking the place in the hearts of the people, so long ocenpied by the Tribune while it remained a decent paper.

When Mnnsirnr Parrott, the impractical Frenchman, transform his "Commercial Element" into a commercial Elephant for a legislative show, and cries, "Friends, Romans, Countrymen, lend me your ears," please excuse the nrenfour auricular organs. The man who has a Roman nose or has read Roman history is not necessarily a great statesman.

The man who has practiced orator' until it has liecome a disease, 1s too likely to peril a principle for the sake of rounding a period. It is not a good day nor a good country for Ricn-zis. To lie a real toising Roman, one mnst needs have a Koman popmace. True reform will come not as a pale ghost from the political graveyard, bnt as a living spirit in robes of purity from the same altar upon which a patriotic people laid the priceless offering of a million lives. The evils of which we complain are the outgrowth of war and not of party.

There is vigor enongh in the Republican party to linrge its ranks and purify its record. It will lose noth ing ifi strength by the expulsion of the Clarkes and the Lee t.

No, be is not giiing over to the Democrats. Ho did not go over to the Democrats of Missouri bnt he served their purposes a great deal more effectually by creating dissensions in the Repnb-lican party by which they profited so well that a State with twenty odd thousand Republican, ma jority sent, br the aid and assistance of Carl tenure, tliat virulent old copperhead, Frank V. Blair, to misrepresent it in the United States Senate. No, heia notguingover to the Democrats; we understand that well enough.

TiikAkms DF.BATF- Don Piatt, of tho Washington Capitol, a paper bitterly hostile to Presi dent Grant and to his renomiuatinn, makes the following sensible comments npon the nseless French arms discussion in the Senate of the United States: "After sifting with rare all the evidence, offered, we are forced to admit that not even a prima facie case has been made ont. At the close of onr late civil war, tne government ion nu irseii pos sessed of a vast amonnt of material in the way of arms of all sorts, that were not only nseless, but wonld not bear keeping, lwcanse of the improvements continually demanding acceptance, if we wish to keep pace with other governments in this respect. The law authorizing the sale is sufficient! broad to allow a ceneral sale of all material. It 'reads, 'the Secretary of War may sell at private or public sale, as ue may deem most advantageous to the public interest, the old cannon, arms and other ordnance stores now in possession of the War Department, which are damaged or otherwise unsuitable for the United States service- Now, whether to seenre an advantageous sale the Department rould manufacture ammnnitinn to snit the arms, i questionable. It is the only qnestion in the whole affair." Bad Taste.

Referring to the remark made by Senator Summer about the "relic of injuries which he snstained sixteen years ago still clinging to him," the Richmond Encuirer, nsnallyao ennrteons, has the lad taste to say; "Thus is Brooks, of South Carolina, felt ami remembered long after hia death. His small cane erected him a monnment more durable than brass." Wonder if Brooks, were he to rise from the grave, would declare that he felt complimented at finding that his memory was so deeply cherished for an act remorse for which carried him, to an untimely tomb.

"I don't want to, but I suppose I shall have to," were his words. Good Apvice.
