a century. The recent cat of $1.50 per ton
is the suhiecl of much comment and spec
nlation If Mr. CLE\ KLAND had been
elected it would all have o*en blamed on
“fear of free trade."
Mr. Caknhuik, who knows as ranch
about it as any one, explains it thus, and
mark his words
"The truth is, our country cannot consume the
amount of pig iron which it has the cajwciiy to
pro* luce. The Kastern drop has been hastened
by Southern competition • You know I told the
Legislator.-, m my address, tnatthls competition
would soou be felt It has come soouer than I
expected. That the consumption of iron and
steel in as great a* It is arise* from the fad that
owing tolhe advance in price* abroad the Amor
lean manufacturer* are left for the flr*t lime In
almiwt complete control of our home markets
But even under those conditions the eouutry ean
not take the amount we arc prepared to make,
and prices must rule low until a uumlsst of fur
naces and mitls conclude that it is better to slop
for a white than to continue tunning. It Mena
probable that this will soou occur, for furnaces
can not afford to i>ay the prices demanded for
on- anl run at the rates now ruling for pig iron
And so we have oar glorious home mark
et and yet we are not happy* Bi.aink anil
the rest of the Republican orators roared
oat from t be stump last campaign that it
the workingmen would only vote the Re
publican ticket, so that onr manufacturers
could hold the home market against the
attacks of the "free traders," wages and
everything else would boom l*ke a sky
rocket. Mr. Mima and the Democrats
advised the manufacturers to reach ont for
foreign market3, in addition to the home
market, but Bi.aink and the rest of them
snul this was the argument of the “tree
trade enemies id American prosperity."
A \, Ac. Now Mr. OarkKOIK tells us
that we have almost exclusive control of the
home market, and yet what is the condi
tion? The American iron trade was never
in worse shape and with a smaller pros
pect of improvement, for the reason that
we are shnt ont from foreign markets by
onr excessive tariff.
And the dinner pail, which, we were
told, was tilled by this same tariff, is
.gradually being emptied.

The Rmustrk recently mentioned a
scheme ot the Republican leaders in Con
gress by which they proposed to hold their
vantage grouud agoiust the people's will,
and secure coutrol of the next Congress.
It is a gigauttc scheme ol ..errymaudcr by
which Congress proposed to regnlate the
Southern Corgress.onal districts so as to
elect Rrpublica w to Oongrewi, sud also
those districts ot the Democratic States of
the North where there are no Republican
legislatures to do the work.
We have heard nothing farther on the
subject, bat the fallowing, from the Wash
ington correspondent ol the Chicago 7Vi
bunt, looks like it might he part nod parcel
of the same revolutionary trick—one ol
the preliminary details, as it were. The
Tribn*e\< Washington man says:
• Many Republicans believe the ouly manner
iu which this Democratic conspiracy ;the •••slut
South 1 can be overcome is to elect a* Speaker a
man of nufltclent cournge to take the reins of
House government in his own hand* In fact a
quiet canvas has beeti made among the peasant
candidates for Speaker in hopes of fludlng one
who would avow hi* willingness to declare a
quorum present when he can see a sufficient
uumber of members to eon*Utute a quorum sit
liug at their desks before his eyes. A bold deci
sion of thi* sort, sustained for a few days, would
make powible a construction of the rules iu such
a way a> to deprive an arrogant minority of its
exce-sive privileges and to curtail the list of op
porv u .ties for delaying the busiue*> of the House
by motion* of a purely dilatory character and
purpoee."
la other words, atter the Republicans
elect as Speaker a man who ha* no regard,
whatever lor the rights ol the people, lor
the law or for honor, who will carry ont
any nulawlul, partisan scheme that may
be decided upon by the Republican lead
ers, then they will make short shrift of
the solid Sooth by the aid of a National
gerrymander and if need be by the aid of
Federal bayonets, should the South object
to being openly plundered and outraged.
If the scheme spoken of by the Chicago
Trtbum correspondent is not revolutionary,
what is it' If the Speaker of the House of
Representatives is to decide tor himself
whether or not there is a quorum present
what is tbs use of having parliamentary
law, or any law, but that of brute force to
govern the deliberations of Congrem? Is
the Speaker to take the reins of Honaa gov
ernment in bis own hands? Is be to be the
•natter of the people’s representatives, and
override the Federal Constitution if it
aland in the way of the revolutionary de
signs of tbe Republican leader-?
Wi> have seen enough of the (jrAY-Driv
I.KY'-Hakrison meth-rd* to know lhat the
R publicao leaders will stop at notbiug to
c*rrv their point, and they will carry ont
this revolutionary so eiua if tney have the
chance. And the chance they have already
in a bare majority.
Will the Democrats allow this plot
aicain-tt popular rights to come to a snrcees
fill issue? They are forewarned. They
have a good leader, in the absence of the
Speaker in th** person of Clerk CLARK
He roa*“ be gagtained.
This is not the concern of the DeuHcfat
jc South sloue. it concerns the Republican
North as well. Speaking of this Republi
can scheme, the Richmond Dispatch save:
The i-erpeiuity or onr free government de
peud* upon the freedom of the ballot-box. If
the Southern people be enslaved, and lhair elec
tions I •« taken out of their hands, the northern
people will soon And themself.-* in a like condi
tion of belple-sneas. The chains that bind us
will be long enough and strong enough to bind
them. -This country cannot exist half slave
aud half ftee.' said M Lincoln. If it was true

tiik wool, market.
Wow Wool S«IUn* Frwnly -Krlcna Klrm
und Hl|h.
New Yokk, May 18.—Bradutrtet's my
new wool s hegiumug lo sell freely in ibe
producing districts, where prices are very
firm and comparatively high. There is, as
nsnal at this season, no little speculative
activity. Two or three representatives of
Boston houses have honght quite largely
at San Antonio at lSa^-Jc a pound, and
Eastern bnveis are also operating at San
Francisco Dispatches from St. l.onis re
port a strong market for the clip of that
region, and in New Mexico and Texas gen
erally values are somewhat above last
year’s quotations.
This state of things is rather out ot keep
lug with the continued dulluees ot the
seaboard markets, where there is little in
the demand for woolen goods to enconrage
manufacturer*, and the strongest element
is the comparative meagerness of stock.
Wool, however, ia tirnt at Boeton, New
York and Philadelphia. Buyers do not
hesita'e to take all desirable selections of
old wool at current prices, bearing in mind
the still greater strength at the West, the
shortness of supplies locally, and the pos
sibility of better trade in goods next sea
son.
There is no change in the state of things
at Boston. Values are easily supported
with moderate activity, stocks being very
small. While the heavy-weight season
has been a disappointment in many re*
specie, most of the New Englaud mills
have been kept antler full headway until
now. Ohio fleeces hsve sold in larger
quantities than last week, and Michigan
wool is in some request. Delaines and
combings are quiet. Little is doing in
Territory selections, ard the demand for
foreign wool hs* reached no great propor
tions. Current quotations are as follows,
in companion with last year and the year
before:
