SEAFORTII, FRIDAY, AMY 14, 1876.
GOOdg Enough as Far as it Goes.
A melees Free Trade advocate dis-
courses on the fallacy of i'rotection as
follows:
" Anybody who takes the trouble to
Oriole the matter out, can see that it is
net going to pay all classes to raise
prices. The law that makes cattle and
barley sell at an enhanced price might
be a very tine thing for the farmer, but
it would not pay the townsman When he
goes to -buy his meat and beer. So the
regulation that raises the price of stoves
will be nice for the man who owns the
_foundry, but it will not be pleasent to
the tenser(4rho buys the ' new cooking
stove."
e
This sort\f argument won't do. If
the fernier, as is admitted, will get a
higher price for his cattle and barley, he
can just as easily afford to pay the high-
er price for his stoves is he now ca,n the
low price. The same may be said of the
mechanic or manufacturer. If the latter
gets a higher price for his stoves, he can
afford to pay his workmen higher wages,
ancl they in turn can afford to pay the
farmer higher prices for their meat and
flour. The thing is just as broad as it is
long. The two elasses are se iotimately
conneeted that one cannot be benefitted
without benefitting the other. _There is
this, also, that the greater umnber of
stOves.of Canadian manufacture that are
used, the greater number there will be
manufactured, and the more that are
manufactured, the more employees there
will be required to make them, and, con-
sequently, the greater will be the local
-demand for the farmer's 'produce. If
our contemporary can prove to us that
manufactories are not a benefit to the
country, and that it is not more profit-
able to consume our produce at home
than to send it abroad, then we will ad-
mit that it would not be judicious to
place the farmers and manufacturers of
Canada on an equal footing 3vith those
of the United States in respect of tariffs.
Very Igncrant, but not Very
Honest.

PROPELLOR BURNED ON LAKE Su-

o'clock the prop. St. Clair, belonging to
Ward's Line, on her way from Duluth
left Ontonagon, having on board 18 ma-
sengers and a crew of 14 persons. VV, en
off Fourteen Mile Point fire was diihov-
ered in the fore hold, and in lees than five
minutes the boat was enveloped in flames
from one end to the other. Owing to the
rapidity with which the flames spread but
one boat was launched. Thelife preservers
were brought on deck, and all the passen-
gers succeeded in putting them or, when
a rush was made for the yawl,' which was
swamped six or seven times. The water
was yery cold, and it was not long before
16 passengers p enshed, together with 10
of thecrew. When the boat caught fire
she was about five miles from shore.
ST011.11.-0n the evening of July 5th a
terrific storm prevailed over the north
part of the State of Iowa on the lines of
the Illinois Central and Davenport and
St. Paul and Midland Balleoads.
Bridges and embankments on the Illinois
Central were washed out, and there have
been no trains On either for some days.
The village of Rockdale was washed out
the same night, and 42 personsdrowned.
South Burlington was also the scene of
terrible destruction. -Mr. and Mrs.
Stockwell were killed lust ntly while
lying in bed. Mr. Dyke wa instantly
killed, and the body found in the wreck
of his building, which was levelled to the
ground. Numerous others were more or
less injured. Twenty-ninej buildings
were riddled to pieces. Thelstorm was
of but an instant's duration, and its work
of destruction was like a flash of light-
