'i \ [From the PhlUdelibt* Ainoteu'.] An interesting illustration of- the success of the .industrial policy 'of"the'North German States appeared in the Berlin.correspondence of a New York paper on Saturday. -Very soon after the devastiition'of ,'tiie wars of :1812,'. Prus sia, which had suffered as miich or more .than any other part of Europe, .entered upon a vigor ous course of encouragement, tp domestic in dustry. History has not yet clearly,'toliijus to whom the honor of initiating' this system .is due", and the writer nhoye referred.tb, credits tl^e. Prussian minister'Steih' -first, and after him his successor, Hardenbiirg. We would be glad to. know accurately who it was, and to. heap one stone on the pile'reared.in-his honor."iThe lea dership was taken by Prussia, however, and for.nearly ten,vcarR'fmm 1 *L " r- ?. - v -punuy*. ??i ioiu eleven Saxon and other, duchie/formed; a tariff union, called Her Mittel Yerein; and in 1827 and 182$ BavuriiTtand Wsvtgmhurg joined'this "union;" Prussia' then invited all these small .States to-join in its own,'System, which was^more^ highly protective than their own association, dut jealousy of Prussian influ ence prevented the consummation of the plan until March 1833,'at which time the Zhll iVerein; or general union of customs, was formed:? Nearly all the remaining small States joined before 1845, and now Bremen, Hamburg,' Lubec ? land Mecklenburg are.the.only exception's in the I north of Germany. The'revenues'are divided (in certain defined proportions among the several States, Prussia'receiving over fifty per cent! bf the whole. ... But our great interest is in liie results of this | system in recent years. It is now, more than ever, astonishingly prolific in benefits to all. public and private interests. Theincrease of revenues is the culminating point of interest, ? and for tho edification of those who think an - increase of protective duties the sure wayftoj exhaust the country and reduce the revenues, we give the statistics for the Zollyerein during the last five year*.

Thus the revenues of the German Union rap idly increased at the very moment ours disap pc<ired,*arid this because our system hung ypon external prosperity, and theirs upon internal prosperity. In preserving, their .industiy they secured the permanence of their revenues au. certainly as we scattered our revenues in despis ing home industry. The writer from whom we get these figures", puts ;thef argument in'de cisive language^ \vhfch ' we'riced not repeat, iippn'every branch of the statistical returns for this tariff union. Iron gains as rapidly as; any. ? .oilier article, and its production in Prussia rose from 2,11)6,889 tons in 1851,ito Jl;881,l?iS) tpns_ in 1857., The incrense of impoited iron .WfcB, even greater in the same period. In the . factuies of iron the writer cites locomotiviis at . Berlin, as having reached the number of'oue I thousand at a single establishment, while in 1849 Philadelphia locomotives were imported for the earlier railways;-. r.,-( At Berlin the' external evidences of prospcrijj. are abundant. House building, on an extensive , scale, was in progress when the existing politi cal troubles began?iron works, blocks of build ings'for laboring families, and a great new canal basin, named.after Humboldt, were nmortg tho works. "In Breslau, now n city of 130,000 in habitants; -whole streets of great German house* aro growing up; on every hand one sees the mason anjl the carpenter at work. So in Mag dullui'pj'so iri' other cities.3'- ?,;i- 1 Such is North Germany -under; aj protective tariff union, and this at the very, time that our, revenues ol State, and the rewards of our'lahor are at their minimum under practical: free trade. Such also i^ France; and all the States of Eu rope, which advocate and sustain this sensible:, policy, exhibit its results equally in-.the public revenues,.and in the external evidences of pros perity in the town's and tho country. The les son is a inost impressive one .' to /Americans abroad, and not only do our citizens traveling there express themselves strongly on the sub ject, but we understand that our Minister at Berlin expresses freely and forciblyhis convic tions in regard to building up domestic indus try. The density of ignorance in high placcs hero is too great to hope" that these ideas can penetrate their present occupants. cWe live in hope that changes may como.

From ah'interesting letter-dated at Shanghai," iir ltie .Sunday Timet, we make the following extracts': " " A ' '"""?Theta.are small footed ladles at Hong 'Kong ? who gain a very fast livelihood., by exhibiting their pedal extremities to sea captain?, and other curious Europeans,, at a dollar a head; but as so superficial' an examination 9f this na tional peculiarity did not satisfy me, I had res course to some of rny good ? friends among the missionaries. By their aid, I obtained . that. some ppor Chinese women should bring me a complete gam'ut of little girls from the mission ary, schools. : Many of these female children * prohahly' owed their lives to ' tho persuason (aided by .the opportune donation/ of rice) of my missionary friend and his lady, but their influence had' been powerless to prevent the torture of their feet. On the appointed day they were all seated in a row in my friend's, brary, and -their feet, which. I suspect had' un dergone ^ preparatory washing; .were unbound' by, |h$ir mammas. , ,1 lie.' first 'was a child of two years old. Her' penance had just, commenced. When the bandage of blue cotton was taken oil, I found that tho great too had been le'fi un touched, but the other four hadjbeen forced down under tho hall of the foot, and closely hound in .that position. The child, therefore^-, walked upon' the kriucklo joints'of her Jour., toes. The toes were red and infiimed, and the . ligature caused evident pain. In thenextj^hreB'1'; children (all of ages advancing'at smatljntc'r- ? vals) the preparation was only to the same tent; it.was confincd to the four ttjes; gradOally," however, those four toes ceding tc/tlie continual pressure, lost their articulations apd their'iden tity as limbs, and berame amalgamated with: the sole of the .foot.
