-Aad now word to the Nelrark Post, which
IS on the other tack. The general cry is that
Manufactures arc too high and Agricultural
produce too low under the present Tariff, and
the Farmers dIC tlAoS my -N.- 1NrS~ -0'
what they sci! and pay far more for what they
buy than of old. But the Post has 4 case Of
hardship which proves the contrary. Hear it;

Herc YOU see that Hames-a manufactured
article which Farmers must buy-arc said to be
thirty per cent. cheaper than before the present
Tariff was imposed! Hinges, too, are getting so
cheap as to ruin the manufacturer, although the
Hardware Importers made the enormous duty on
Hinges one of their strong grounds Of remon-
STRANGE against this Tariff last winter! To DC
sure, we are not told how the Tarif' has cut down
the price of Hames, but let that go nor does
this gentleman who deals in fact and the hard
materials of truth tell Us h0,o much the price Of
the iron used in making Hamcs has been in

And this brings to the -Nem- Ho,nrsA;yo
Patriot, with which we c!osc. That paper has
undertaken 10 answer our former arlicle-bui
.,I IL. 81
of the Journal Of Commerce, Eve Post, Sc We
then gave them oar facts IN reply. The Patriot
is very careful not To let ours reach It's readers
1t OWNS that it was wrong in asserting that Mr.
Appleton had admitted rsc Of four cents ward
on Calicocs. which Was the basis of It's computl
ton that the Farmers paid sG,0000G0 more this
year than last for that article. 1t untruy asserts
that our list OF Cotton Goods which had not risen


IN price was confined TO articles of 90 one particu-
lar sort, which beng unstable, had not risen"
No such thing: We went into one of the hcavi-
est Commission Houses in the City, now in active
business, and took the prices of all Tire goods tkey
sell If Walham Sheetings. Hamilton Go. Stark
Drills and Sea Island Shceungs are unsaablc,
rlllc ItuliS navy lpt 1SI ISuiiA - Cu-.


But the Patriot means 10 conceal the truth
from its readers. The main point in our article
WAS this, that the Patriot had gone back TO
1910 and ~ 10 show Il decline in Agricultural
staples, but did not and dared not go back 10
the same years and compare the prices OF
Manufactures. On the contrary, while il pro
tessed to be comparing High Tariff and Low
Tariff prices, it cheated, and actually compared
the prices for Manufactures Of 1913 and lS44,
both since the present Tariff became law
1t did not venture 10 compare present prices
with those of day year when the duties were
lower. This is a gross fraud, and the Patriot
shows that it means TO persist in it and conceal
the truth from its readers.


But the Manufacturers arc making great div.
deeds says the Telegraph. This is the last re.
sort of Loco Focoism. Admit that many of them
arc-but holo They bought Wool and Cotton
when they were lows they ind this year a ready
market for their goods at lltle better price than
at the lowest point Of depression Those who
bought Wool heavily at 26 to 80 cents, and sell
the Cloth made Off when that same Wool is
worth 35 to IS cents, OF course make money on
it-just as miller who buys Wheat at seventy
five cents bushel and sells the -four when Wheat
is worth dollar, will make money. But can
they do as well on the cloth they are now making
OF Wool that costs them 81 to 45 cents ? Ger.
ttiny not And if they could advance the price
Of Cloth (Which they cannot) rush of compeli.
ton in manufacturing would soon ruin half OF
them and cripple the rest. There is nothing more
peri!ous TO any branch Of business than high
profts-nothing which more certainly redfesses
itself, Put the Tariff just where the genera
interest and general prosperity require it, and all
the special or partial interests Will, after hriei
oscillation, adjust themselves 10 it. and no branch
Of business have any advantage of another II
Wool is TOO high, there Will soon be too much
Wool, as we have seen the case with Beef within
4 few years past; so of Woolens or any thing
else. We believe the Tariff is right as it Is, and
that ne pupic interest mperatyely requires thai
