The high tariff policy of the Radical party has prostrated many of the business interests of the country, but uo department of trade has suffered so great as our ocean commerce. Under Radical rnle an iron steamship of three thousand tons costs a ship-builder something over 8600,000. 'The same vessels may be purchased in Scotland for $400,000, but the buyer would be obliged to pay a heavy lax in the way vo& & & . of import duty. The Ttesult is, our shipping interests have gradually sunk until instead of ranking one of the first commercial powers of the globe, as was the case under Democratic rule, we now take a position with the fourth and fifth class powers. . In the United States ship building is a thing of the past. The material used in the construetion of vessels is 80 loaded down with oppressive duties, and protection .is carried to such an unreasonable extent, that it amounts to nothing else than unqualified prohibition. As a nataral consequence such management has destroyed our ocean commerce and the sound of the hammer is no longer heard in our ship yards. ' e There are fully thirty theusand ship mechanics in New Yotk alone who are thrown out of proper employment, and probably not less than one hundred thousand of the same class of people thronghout the States are comparatively idle. According to the Radical gospel these poor *wo‘r‘kj‘mén are to suffer in order that less than ten thonsand pig iron manufacturers may be saved to fatten and grow immensely rich. The iron interests of Pennsylvania must thrive, if it be at the expense of the laborer and ship builder. The greedy monopolists, led by Simon Cameron, and the money bags of New England manufacturers, have taken rights from the western people that nothing but a eomplete Democratic guccess will ever restore. - - .

The Radical tariff is literally a dog in the manger policy ; wecannot build ships and .are prevented from going abroad to purchase them, : ' We cannot | sell our products in the ‘highest markets and buy our necessities where we choose, but must sell to New England and take our pay in goods at such prices as ‘they in their might deem fit to charge. < ; It has come to pass that when a great European war opens a chance for us to regain our lost prestige on the seas, and whiten the broad oceans with the canyass of our merchant navies, we are forced to sit idle. At the expense of every interest of the country we are obliged to fold our arms and gee all such opportunities wasted, but for .loml'{_ amn:emeqttw,? are permitted ook on at a sort of a:negro pi é:ing, dance, performed by ‘Ba;dicﬁlm i -gressmen to distract 'the attention of the people and keep ‘themselvés'in - power. e If the capitalists and statesmen of England Ims framed' our fariff’ laws they could not have doné better service to ‘their own ecotntry.

LIGONIER,; IND., WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 17, 1870.

THE SOLDIER AT THE DOOR, OR THE RASH MISTAKE. “No tramgs here,” said T ; and shut the doorin his face. The wind blew 80 1 could hardly do it, and the sleet was beating on the panes, and the bare trees were groaning and moaning just as if they suffered in the storm. “No tramps here. I'm a lone women, and I'm afraid of them.” . 4 Then, the man T hadn’t seen yet for the dark, went away from the door —tramp, tramp, came through the slueh, as I' heard the creak at the gate; then tramp, tramp, came the man back again, and he knocked on the door—knocked not half so lond as he had before—and I cpened it hot and angry. This time I saw his face, with yellow brown hair, cropped close, and great staring blue eyes; and he put his hand against the door and held it open. ““How far is it to the next house, madam ?”’ said he. L3l ps “T'hvee miles or more,’ I said. '- ‘And that is not a tavern ?*

‘No,” said I'; *no drinks to be gov there, it's Miss Mitten’s, and she is as set against tramps as [ am.’ : ‘I don’t want anything to drink, but Ido .want food. You needn’t be afraid to let mein, madam. I’ve been wounded-—am not able to walk far—my clothes are thin, and its bitter cold. I’ve been trying to get to my parents at Greenbank, where I-can rest til' I am better ; and all my money was stolen from me three ddys ago. You needn’t be afraid ; just let me lie before the fire, and only give me a crust to keep me from starving, and the: Lord will bless you for it.’

_.And then he looked at me with his mild blue eyes in a way that would bave made me'do it, if it hadn’t been that I had seen so much of those impostors. 'The war was just over, and every beggar that came along said he was a soldier traveling. home and had been robbed. One that I had been fool enough to gssist, limped away out of sight, as’ he ‘thought, and then, for I was at the garret window, shouldered his crutches and tramped it with the strongest. ,

. *Nodoubt your pocket is full of money,’ said" I, ‘and you only want a chance to rob and murder me. Go away with you.’ wl ¥ : Drusilla, my niece, was baking short cake in the kitchen. - Just then she came to the door, and motioned with her mouth ‘to me: ‘Do let him atay, aunty,” and if I han’t had good' sense I might, but I-knew better than a girl of sixteen. : ‘ “Go away with you,” said I, londer than before. . ‘I won’t have this any longer.’ Pt

And he gave a kind of groan and took his hand from the latch, and went tramp, tramp, through the frozen snow again, and I thought him gone, when there he was once more, hardly with a knock at all—a faint touch like a child’s now. : :

And when I opened the door he came quite in, and stood leaning on his came, pale as a ghost, his eyes bigger that ever. g ‘Well, of all impudence,’ said I. He looked at me, and said he, ‘Madam, I have a mother at Greenbank. I want live to see her. I shall not if I try to go further to-night.’ ‘They all want to see their mothers,’ gaid I, and just then it came into my mind that I hoped my son Charles, who had been a soldier—an officer he had got to be, mind you—wanted to gee his, and would soon. L

‘l’'ve been wounded, as you see,’ said he. iR

‘Don’t go showing me your hurts,’ said I. ‘They buy ’em, go they tell me, to go begging with now. I read the papers, 1 tell ye and I'm principled, Bo’s our clergyman, again giving anything, unless it is through some well-organized society. ~Tramps are my abominations. And as for keeping you all night, you ecan’t expect that of decent folks—go !’ 2l G v Drusilla came to the door, and gaid: ‘Let him stay, aunty,” with her ‘lip’ again, but I took mno notice, :

80 he went, and this -time did not come back, I Bat down by the fire, and listed to the wind and sleet, and felt the warm' fire, and smelt the baking cakes, and apples stewing, and tea drawing on tfe, Ritchen stove, and I ought to have been very ecomfortable, but I wasn’t. :Something seemed too be tugging at my heart all the time.

1 gave the fire “a_poke, ‘and lit another candle to cheer myself by, and went to my work-basket to get the gock I had been knitting for Charlie ; and as I weat to get it I saw something lying on ‘the floor. I picked it up. It was an old tobacco pouch, ever so much like the one I gave Charlie, with .fringe around it, and written on it in ink, ‘C. F.'to R: H.,’ and inside was a bit of tobacco, and an old pipe, and a letter ;- and when I spread it out.l saw at the top, ‘My dear son.’ I'knew the beggar must have dropped it, and my heart gave one bi thump, as though it had been turngg into-a hammer. : Perhaps his ‘story - was trae; and he hﬁ%gx ‘mother. T shivered all over, -and'the fire, and’the candles, and t.bel{ ‘nice and comfortable smell, might just as well not have beenat all, I was 8o cold and wretched. Feion ‘ ““4&md over and over again 1 had to say to myself what 1 had heard my pastor say o often. . ‘Never give anything to chance beggars, my degr friends ; always bestow. your charity .on_worthy persons, through well-or-ganized societies;,’ before.l eould get a bit -of comifort. ' ‘And ‘what an’ old fool: 1 was to' ery, T'thooght, when' 1. found my choeks wet. oe o . “But T did not cry long, for while sitting there, dash, c’x"aai?and‘ jingle came a sleigh over the road, and it atopped .at: onn:gate, .and I heard my COharlie’s voice crying : *Halloo, mather !a'-.::Lm&fﬁofih&dm:d ml;:ld bim An my.arms—my great, tall, handaome, ‘brown son.: :And there he was in his ainiform;; with his = pretty shouldesstrape,dnd hearty as if he had ‘never ‘been through any hardshipe. " Hehad to leave me to put up his horse, and i dby the fire again my own bay, ~Aud Drasilla, who had been pp stairs,and had been exyingy came

down all in a flatter—for they were like a brother and sister—and Ke kissed her, and she kissed him, and away she went to set the table for supper.— How Charlie _enjoyed them. But once, in the midst of all, T turned very pale, for Drausilla said, ‘What ie the matter Aunt. Fairfax 7. : I said nothing, but I thought I heard something like the ghost of a step, going tramp, tramp, over the frozen snow; kind o’like the ghost of a voice crying: ‘Let me lie on the floor before the fire, and give me any kind of a crust;” kind o’ like seeing some one that had a mother, dropping down on the wintry road, and freezing and ‘starving to death there.” - . ' Oharlie and 1 drew up together by the fire, when tea was over, and he told us things about the war, I'd never heard of before ; how the soldiers suffered, and what weary marches and ghort rations tuey sometimes had: And he told me how his life had been set upon, and he was badly wounded ; and how at the rigk of his own life, a fellow sotiier had saved him and carried him away, fighting his way back to camp. ‘l’d never have seen you but for him,” says my Charlie. ‘And if there’s a man I love, it is Rob Hadway—the dearest, best fellow. We’ve shared each other’s rations, and drank from the same canteen many a tithe ; and if I ever had a brother, I didn’t think more of him.’ it

‘Why don't you bring him home to gee your mother, Charlie?” said I.— ‘Why, I'd love him too; anything that I could do for him, for the man who saved my son’s life, couldn’t be enough. Send for him, Charlie.” But Charlie shook his head and covered his face with his hands. - : “Mother,” said he, ‘I don’t know whether Rob Hadway is alive or dead to-day. While I was stillin the ranks he was taken prisoner. And the prisons are poor places to live in, mother; I'd give my right hand to be able to do him any good ; but I can’t find no trace of him.' And he has a mother, too; shelives at Greenbank—poor old lady! My dear, good, noble Rob, the preserver of my life!” And I saw Charlie nearly crying. Not to let us see the teare, he got up and went to the mantlepice. ] ~ ‘Good H%avens! what is'this 7’ And I turned, and Charlie had the tobacco pouch the man dropped, in his hand. - “Where did this come from ?, said he. ‘I feel as though I had seen a ghost.” I gave this pouch to Rob Hadway the day he saved me. =We soldiers have not much to give, you know, and vowed never to part with it while he lived. How did it come here, mother ? ‘

I féel,,l’ back in my chair, white and cold, and =aid I : ‘A waundering tramp left it here, never, never your Rob, my dear, never your Rob.. He must have been an impostor. I wouldn’t have turned away a person really in want. Oh! no, noj; it is another pouch, my child ; not yoars, or he stole it. A tall fellow with blue eyes, and yellow brown hair, wounded, he said, and going to his mother at Greenbank. Not your Rob.’ syl ‘ And Charlie stood staring at me with clenched hands, and said he: ‘lt was Rob; it was my dear old Rob who saved my life, and you have driven him out in such a night as this, mother. My mother, to use Rob so ! ‘Curse me, Charlie,” said I, ‘curse me, if you like ; 'l'm afraid God will. Three times he asked only for a crust, and a place to lie, and I drove him away. I, I—and he's laying on that road now. Oh! it I had known—’ And Charlie caught up his hat.— I'll find him if he’s alive, said he. ‘Oh, Rob, my dear friend ! | j And then—l never saw the girl in such a flurry—down went Drusilla on her knees, as if she was saying her prayers, and says she, ‘I thank God I dared to do it I’ And she says to me, ‘O, aunt, I've been trembling with fright, not knowing what you'd say to me. I took him in the kitchen way. I could not see him so faint and hungry, and woununded, and I pat him in the spare chamber over the parlor, and I've been so frightened all the time.”

A writer, for the Boston Journal is reviewing the recollections of old ¢haracters and old “times.” We quote the | following reminiscence of Dr, Alex. Dancan, Congressman from Ohio in ~,“Whether. it was from ' perdonal ‘choice, orfrom.a secret desire o imitate indrese, as be resembled in fignre, Mr. _Webster, we cannot say, but pitiain 1 ja; tha henerss, mg say him he wore! dark pantaloons, buff cassimere, vest, aiiFblad drste coat with brass bations, which” was Mr. ‘Webster’s ordinary et whon i the sétate or apon the m, f;'z;‘m, Pl BEASHIBHE MELSRnD { ~/:Mr.Duncan’ had 'the'appearance of & lover of good tbinsr«-?u@rdm,, gqgod wines, and good company--and 3‘

such was his character. He was elected first to congress in 1836 from Cincinnati, and was re elected ‘in 1838, In 1840 he was defeated by his whig opponent, Mr. Pendleton, but he was again elected in 1842, defeating Mr. Pendleton, and served in the house until 1845. About this time his health began to fail,and continued failing until the spring of 1852, when we should judge he bad not reached the age of three score at the time of his death.— Men of all parties spoke kindly and respectfully of Dr. -Duncan ‘when he lived in Ohio, and yet probably ‘there was no prominent person on the Democratic side—not even Amos .Kendall nor Isaac Hillawho was more cordially hated and abused by the Whigs than the representative from Cincinnati during the campaign of 1840. He was the cause of tge innumerable jibes and jokes in the Louisville Journal. Mr. Prentice appeared to take iofinite delight in scoring him. Here is one passage which we remember. 'The Cincinnati Fnquirer, in speaking of Dr. Duncan, incidentally sai«f : “There is no man in Congress who can bring an interesting question down to a point 80, quickly as Dr. Duncan.” This Prentice quoted in the Louisville Journal and added: “We don’t know how it may be with him in a matter of argumen., but we know that there is no man in Congress that can bring a quart of whisky down to a pint as quickly as the Doctor.” - With these preliminary remarks, we proceed to say something in regard to the “Mary Rogers speech,” which i ite day attracted much attention. On reading it over, the other day, we thought the parts intended to be serious were the funniest; for instance nothing could be more ludicrous than his serious attempt to answer the speech of his colleague, Corwin, made in reply to Crarey, upon the military abilities of General Harrison, than his going away back to Jewish, Egyptian, Greecian and Roman times, down to modern days, to prove from the examples of Moses, Joshua, Pharaohs, and others; that General Harrizon, at the battle of the Thames, ought to have been 'in front of his battalions instead of their rear. How Corwin must have enjoyed it | | The following extract gives the’ Doctor’s views and experience of log cabins and log cabin life : ] ST Bet

“SIR—I delight in the very name of a log cabin. There is no name in the English vocabulary that dwells upon my lips with so much delight as log eabin. It brings fresh to my recollection scenes of youthful pleasures, which I have never since, nor ever will again enjoy. » Many, oft is the time that I thought a day a month in anxious watch for the setting of the sun, which was the token for the rally to the frolic of the log cabin, where I met ‘the comrades of my youth in dance, flay‘and song. In the times of which am speaking log cabins were- what the term means—a house ' made. of round logs, one story high, of dimen‘sions suited to the size of the family who were to inhabit it, and sometimes with reference to an increase ; a punch.eon floor, tin back loft, and a clapboard roof. The industry of the matron and her daughters was displayed by -the thick folds of linsey frocks, pantaloens and hunting shirts which behung its walls. Its_loft was underhung with strings of, dried pumkins, and capacity heated and' lighted with a large wood fire from its capacious chimney. So much for decription, now for the frolic. It consisted in dancing, playing and singing love and murder sonps, eating Johnny ecake and pumkin pies; and drinking new whisky and brown sugar out of a gourd. Our daneing in ‘m youthful day, and in my neighborhoo@{, was done to the performance of an old Irishman with one leg, with the heel of which he beat time to a fiddle with three strings to the air of ‘ “Barney, let the girls alone, | - Barney, let the girls alode, - Bamek let the girls alone, And;let them quiet be. 5 Judy, put the kettle on,/ i 3ady Bat the eatele on, 5 And we'll all drink tea.” - i

Or, if I recollect right, I think our fiddler could only play:one tune. But let me tell you, sir, our girls were not to be sneezed at., They. presented a form in beauty that marked the developments of nature when unrestrained by fashionable and high life, and their guileless hearts looked through a countenanee that demanded confidence in their innocence and unsallied virtue. But, oh, their forms! -When you applied your arms to their waste in the giddy waltz with the . twenty-five yards of warm linsey in which they were comfortably enwrapped, you had an armful of health and firmness. These constituted my pleas ures in the days of log cabins, which, go far as it goes, will be recognized by 1 ‘thoseé 'who have been’ round in the western country.” : 5 The Religious Element in the Euroi pean 'War. ; : .1 As there has been an effort made in cer. tain quarters to. identify the present way ‘between France and Prussia as a contest between Catholicism, . represented by France, and Protestantism, by Prussia, we_give the following from the New ‘ York Freeman's Journal and Catholic Reg ister, the most iniuential of all the Cath olic priats in the United States, and one ‘ of the most orthodox. Itsaye: : -~ - “But, here comes in a moral considera | tion.. Very stupidly it has been asserted that the triumph of France would be for , Ca_t'ho)it;’itg', and the triumph of Prussia Protestantism. We believe it will bLe so, accepted, at large. - 'And yet thie Catholic: Chureh is more fres, and more happy, in Pruseia than she is in France. =~ -~ “The miserable course taken by thepres - ‘ent French Ministry toward Rome—well répresented by the doctrinaire Paradol, who shot himself-——makes us doubt abont ‘whether the success of France could be for the benetit of Christianity.

'THE STATE FINANCES. Rece‘i‘ins and Expenditures for Twenty Years—Republican Extravagance and Deception — Intentional Dishonesty of the Journal and Other Re- : puhlic,anPapeu.- ; 5 g For months past the Republican _]l);rejss and’ Republican leaders in Indiana have taken ‘great credit to themselves for, as they allege, extinguishing. the State debt. Even as late as the 29th ult., the Journal stated that when Governor Laneand Gov. Morton, in 1861, took-charge of the’ administration of State affairs, the foreign and domestic debt amounted to $10,179,267, and that the Republicans had paid llt entirvely off. - The address of the Republican State Central Committee, recently published, charges dereliction of duty on the part of the Democratic party, for not paying off the State debt during'its six: tecn years of uninterrupted ascendancy in the administration of State affairs. =~ - The whole history of State government does not exhibit such reckless and extrav: agant expenditures of money, such disregard of the interests of the people, and such intolerable burdens as have been, and now are imposed upon the tax payers of Indiana, as have marked the administration of the Repuolican party during the last ten years. L : The boast of having paid the State debt is a gross deception upon the:tax}payers of Indiana, and evinces a want of eonfi - dence in the-intelligence of the people, by the leaders of the Republican garty.” The last report of the Auditor of State shows a State indebtedness of $5,650,597.61, and that there was collected off of the people the sum of $377,661.57 to pay the interest thereon. The amount of the State debt, November 1, 1861, as reported by the Auditor of State, Hone Albert Lange, was $7,770,2383. : e B The Auditor of State’ reports now, dut ungfficially; that since his last annual re--port there has been' retired of the State debt, and that there is now a-<fund on: hand sufficient to pay the bonds that have not been returned, toreduce the outstanding indebtedness of the State to $3,614,901. 15, upon which there is.paid an annual interest of $216,71407. -For the year ending November 1, 1861, according to the report of the Auditor of State, Hon. Albert: Lange, the State debt was $7,770,233, and the interest upon the same was $309,548.09. ' But now, withan indebtedness of $3,614,901.15, the annual interest i 8 ' $216,714.07. Sothat while,the debt of the State has been diminisiled more than one half what it was Novem: ber 1, 1861, the interest has increased to more than two thirds_of what was ﬁaid in 1861." | Under this state of faets which can not be truthfully contradicted /what becomes of the boastings of the State organ of the Republican party, and all the lesser lights, Ihat the Republicans have in the past nine years' paid off all of the indebtedness of the State ® : ;

“The “Mitraillense>’ of fhe French ) i P i "-'" s -!n;.;;r.-—‘—u;.'&' o ;, The London Globe gives the following _description -of theé formidable weapon, ‘the' French “mitrailleuse.” This is the ‘weapon for which the Prussian govern: ment offers a reward of 5,000 thalers fur the first one captured by the Prussian troops: Eir 5 ““To destroy youf enemy in the shortest ‘time, in the easiest manner, and at the ‘least possible expense, 1s the-first maxim; of war. The stone that whistled from' David's sling, the bullet of the ‘zundnad-el-gewehr,’ and thie volley of the ‘machinegun’ bad all the sante object. Since the days of Roger . Bacon the aim of all im‘provements in fire-arms has been to carry the greatest possible number of deaths to the greatest: possible distance. Grape, canister or case, and shrapnel all contain bullets, and are all means for multiplying ‘deaths. The /field-gun mows down its aundreds by showers of case at close - quarters, or at longer distances rains bullets from the bursting shrapnmel.” The mitraillear, or machine-gun, on the con trary,sendsa large number of small projectiles independently, and with ‘precision. to a considerable distance. We may di--vide arms on the latter principleinto two classes~ first, those which dischargetheir bullets from a single barrel, fed by 8 manychambered breech ; and, secondly, those ‘in which each cartridge has its correspond- - ing barrel, the charging and discharging of which is direct, and more or less simple. Itis obvious that, for rough usage and : continuous firing, it is better that a large ° number of rounds should be fired from a - considerable number of barrels so placed as to support each other and add strength to the whole machine. . The French' mitrailleuse, a 8 well’ as the Belgian Montigny, belongs to the second class, and ‘the following brief description is equally applicable to botharms: The machine-gun consists of a cluster ‘of barrels, either bound together or bored out of the solid, - and mounted on the same principle as an. ordinary fleld-gun.. At a few hundred yards, indeed, it would be difficult to distinguish: between these two , weapons, as far as outward appearance goes.. To the barrel is attached a massive breechaction, capable of being opened and closed by. a lever. Inthe Montigny arm the cartridges are carried in steel plates perforated with holes, corresponding in aumber and position to the holes:in the barrel. - This steel plate, in fact, forms the ‘vent piece’ of.the system. The central fire car. tridges being dropped into the holes in the steel plate, stand out at right angles from it, and the plates, thus ready charged, are so carried in limber and axeltree boxes specially fitted for their reception.— - When the gun comes into action /the- - is .drawn back, <a steel plate full of cartridges is dropped into its ‘corresponding slot, and the brecch block thrust torward and secufred. The. gun sgs now on full cack, and/contains from 30 to 40cartridges, which| are fired by a ‘barrel organ’ handle, either one by one as the handle works round, click-click, or in a volley by a rapid torn-of the wrist.-— When the gun is empty, the breech block is again withdrawn, the steelplate, carrying the empty cartriage cases, is: lifted’ out, and a fresh plate drepped in, if necessary. Theé advantage possessed by the- - gun over infantry fire is that it /- is never ina funk. Bullets may rain around, bursting. shélls miay fill the air, still the 37 barrels of the mitrailleuse shoot like .one¢ man, and at 800 or 1,000. - yards will pour volley after. volley of - deadly concentrated. fire.into a circle of from 10 to 12 feet in diameter. No boring or fixing of fuses is required, and the whole operation is performed so rapidly that two steady, cool men could maintain a fire ot ten discharges per minute. On the other hand, the mitralleuse could not well ‘compete with the field gun, and it is with this weapon it will assuredly be . met. - Its bullets would have compara. . tively slight effect at the ranges at which field artillery projectiles are erhzéps most effective, while its size wou{)d offer . a very fair mark to the gumner. - A
