Now. to say thnt protective tariffs are a dopled for the benefit of tho capitalist ia just nboiit as trueiis thai lows are made for ihs benefit of lhu lawyers only, or that poor houses oro built merely for tho sake of ihe overseers of thu poor. But there ore oth ers that have a much grenler itilerest in the existence oflaw than lhu lawyers, and in that of poor houses than that oi overseers. It is nil llio difference which n man has be tween tho necessity of living nnd that of getting rich. Laws nnd poor houses mny enable lawyers and overseers to grow rich er: but lho rest of lhu community cnulilnot exist without tho laws, and lho naiinnrs would perish iflheru were not poor houses. So it is by the laws, that by what wo call ihe proteclivc system, creato lucrative cm ployments for those dependent for subsis tence on their daily labor. Tho same laws help Iho capitalist n who man is nlrcndy possessed ol some wealth lo get more ; but what is lhu little nnd vain enjoyment of show, which added wealth creates for him in comparison with the solid comfort sprral among whole bodies of thn poor by these laws, which bring ihuir labor into constant employment than in the mere rates of iva ges? If, then, protective duties ure to the ad vantage of ono cnpiuili.it, (who could, how ever, live williout them.) they are of vastly more relative advantage lo porhups Hun dreds of poor, in each manufactory, who could scarcely "live," even without them, and about tin in. nnd nbout whom, at nny event, they double nnd (ripple, and quadru ple nil the security, ond comfort, nnd icj pcctability of life. To judge more surely of th.e f.ict whuh. wo nru asserting, lei any one look ai tho comparative condition oftho laboring poor, in those quarters where tho protective sys tem has reared up (lima urlificial employ mcnts, nnd in thosn other quarters where it Ims tint. In ihe former you seu nil busy, diligent and well paid ; the women ns prof itably occupied ns lho men, in proportion lo their strength ; nnd the very children at work or nt school, upon funds which tlm surplus ol'lhrir own wages has in reality, often supplied, No rags, no wretchednrss, no melancholy cabin, half rooiless, nol with floor of mud, n tatlcrod troop of will children about it, a sad mother looking half famine struck, to be seen occasionally thro' the dismantled door or broken walls, her husband probably gono a fishing or a hunt ing, becauso,hft the sole worker for lho fam ily, cannot get employment more lhan half his lime. This latter is tho decriptmn, fs miliar to every body,of the poor of nil llioso parts of the country where thn brnificcnl action of the system we spenk of has not yet created employment Among ihem the hab itation is such as scarcely defends from lho went her; the raiment is scanty, coarse, un suited to the season, and full of rents or pntches ; the food itself is bad, insufficient, nnd nlways uncertain for lho morrow , nnd five dollars nt n lime, in monoy, is n thing no more lo be dreamed of lhan the possess ion oflho Hank of England. Add to all this tho saddest of human denrivnlions lho nWncnofall hope of ever bettering ihcir condition.

A most lamentable accident happonod on tho New Jersey Kail road, yesterday. An extra train had been chartered by an association of tho order of Itechabiios, belonging to Newark, for an ex cursion tu New Hruuswick. When within two or thico miles from Itahway, lant night about half past ten o'clock, on their return, soma of the comjany in lho first car, think ing it would be an oxcclent jolo toleave their friends in tho second behind, withdrew tho boll that conncctod the two, and they sep arated. When from two or throe hundred yards apart, lho cry was rallied "tho oar is off!" Tho onginccr understood by tills that a portion oftho train was off the track, and immediately stopped his engino. In tho mean time the second car, by the impetus acquired from lho rato at which the the train was going at the lime uf the separ ation, aided by tho decondinu grade of the track at the place, was coming down upon the first with fearful force and apeed. The concussion which almost immediately took place waa very violont, breaking up the platforms which camo together, and atavlng in the ends of tho cam. Ono young man named Wird.a resident of Railway, had both lega dreadfully crnshed, and one of his ttba broken, and forced through a portion of his lungs, besides being badly hurt internally. It is the opinion of his physlcia n that he can not live through tc-day. Another young man, named Dunn, had his knes hurt in a manner that will probably make him a crip ple. Two other young men, belonging lo Newatk, whose names we have not ascer tained, were also badly wounded,one by hav jng a thigh breken, the other bla collar and bieast bonos. Eight or ten others weie more or leas hurl, but there were no more broken bones. It la worthy of remaik that in this, as in most other railroad accidents, only those who were standing on the outside platforms were senoasly injured. -A. Y. Com. Adv., Oth.
