Protection acts as a robbery of the laboring man and th man receiving wages, The agriculturist lias no pro tection exonpt prtttontiously on wool, while he has to pay seventy-five to one hundred per cent on the woolen good he must ne?ds have. Tho daylaborer receiving a wage, or the mechanic, car penter, shoemaker and men on a salary all have no protection and all are com pelled to pay from twenty-five to sixty per cent of what they rocoive in the increased price of goods which are pro tected, and which they are obliged to boy. I visited the house of a friend of mine in Toledo the other day, who had a family of several children. Ho had a wage of $1,50 a day, bringing him in a year, an income of $450. I a.sked him how much ho paid for the clothing of his family. He said $100 at least I told him he could have those clothes in Canada for $75. I demonstrated to him that he paid in a year nearly $200 more for articles required by himself and family than they could have pur chased for in Canada. I told him that this was the nefarious result of the protective tarilT. He said that this was a new light to him, and that he would tell his neighlwrs and friends that the protective tariff was taking nearly one-half their wages which the Government did not receive (because these goods were manufactured in America, and therefore puid no duty to the Government,) but which went into the pockets of the home manufac turers. The result of a protective tariff for twenty years have been the robbery of all men on waees of from one-half to one-third of what they have received with no advantage to compensate for the loss to any,, unless it be those who are employed in the manufacturing in dustries whose products are protected. But. tlioso men are out of employment a greater portion of the time, and for the lust ten years. I will undertake to to show, the average wages of the men in such manufacturing industries have been less duily thun those of the same persons similarly employed for the last ten years preceding 1800 un der a revenue tariff. Hon. Frank IlritD. Tillard'i Orcao Raits. In conversation with a Portland merchant last week' he mentioned to us the fact of having some cases of mer chandise come from New York to Ore gon, coming across too continent by rail and from San Prancisco on the steamer. Ho cave us the figures on his freight bill, from which it appears that for carrying the goods from San Franoisco to Portland, seven hundred miles, by cheap water transportation, Villard had charged and collected more than one-third as much as the entire charge for the three thousand miles by rail from New York to San Francisco. Now, when we consider that if the whole distance transported had been all railroad, Villard would have tx-en entitled to less than one fifth of the rates; yet, for less that one-fifth of the distance, and over the only piece of cheap water line on the route, he takes nearly one-third the entire charges. We begin to see how he is grinding the people of Oregon on every hand and proving hiinself to lie the worst mono polist in the United States. In this way every man, woman and child in in the State is compiled to pay un just charges on all groceries, dry goods, hardware, agricultural implements, and everything used or consumed in the State. Vidttle. New Postal Card. The new postal card for private cor respondence differs from the ordinary postal card mainly in having attached to the upper edge a flap of light brown paper, the lower edge of which is touched with mucilage, tho same as the flap of an envelope. After the message is wr'.'ien on the card the flap is turned ovtr and sealed at the lattom. This effectually screens the message from curious eyes and at the same time leavps the ends open, according to the requirements of second-class mail mat ter. Brpubtlcao Pro;ranimc. Standard, Feb. 24th. It was -nothing strange that the Republican Stato Central Committee excluded reporters at its meeting yes terday. The committee is created for the purpose of calling a convention, apportioning tho State and do such other business as the public has a right to know. Put this does not include all that is done at a Republican committee meeting. The slate is made out in full at this meeting by those in command, and the members return home to thoir constituents to report what they have been instructed to do, and prepare their ticket for delegates to ratify tho ticket selected. Wo are informed that there was such a difference of opinion on the candidate for Congress that the com inittee hud to leave that choice to the convention in a measure, but the rest of the ticket was settled upon. Lord. Karhart and Hi inch got away with it, while Powell was shelved for Prof. McElroy of Denton. Peekman has the lead for Governor, closely pressed by Moody; but there are combinations threatened by Mallory and Hare which promise to be rather troublesome to our Republican friends. Mallory wants to go to Congress. Hare wants to get the nomination for Governor, Both have a strong following, but George's friends insist on his re nomi nation, while Cap. Humphrey claims to hold tho winning hand. He is a hold over Senator. Aspirants for the Sen ate cannot afford to antagonize him. The programme as now arranged will not lie bo satisfactory as to keep down future troublo, and wo shall expects lively time from now until the conven tion meets, by the different factions to get the delegates. Tho Hill-Thompson element did not have enough strength iu the committee to bring it into promi nence. It may be stroii-rcr iu the con vention. It was a cunning trick to get Capt Humphrey out for Congress in order to sinch our friend Tom Mon tcith from Linn. We are not satisfied that Tom will appreciate that kind of treatment There is lots of fun in tliu air. Lcup for Libtriy. Wednesday Feb 21, about 11:30 A. M., as the north bound train from Iloseburg passed Harrisburg, a prisoner by the name of Henry Graham, sen tenced by his honor, Judge I farina, to two years in tho Stato Penitentiary, from Jackson county for lurceny, and in charge of Special Deputy Sheriff 15. Seyhert, asked permission to go to the water closet, wliiuh was granted. As soon as he entered Jio immediately locked the door, opened the window and jumped out, the train being in full mo tion and running at about the rate of 25 miles per hour. The Deputy Sher iff saw him jump, and immediutely informed Conductor liogart, who stopped the train and backed up to where he jumped off. Tho gentlemen on board all knowing of the escape, alighted from the cars and assisted ill the search. The prisoner was soon found, hid in a ditch but a short dis tance from the track. He gave up, was taken back to the train aud brought on to the Penitentiary, where he now languishes. Considering the fact that his legs were chained together and the truin passing along at full speed, it is a wonder that he was not instantly killed or seriously injured, but he escaped without Wing hurt in the least, except lieing covered with mud. The Deputy Sheriff who saw him jump says that he turned several sommertault before lighting in the mud. It was indeed a desperate leap for liberty. A bill has been introduced in the Senate by Grover for the organization of Southeastern Alaska and esta'dish ment of a civil government therefor. It provides for the appointment of a U. S. District Attorney with exclusive powers over the district. The bill ex tends the general laws of Oregon over the district, so far as they may be ap plicable and not conflict with the pro visions of the bill, and provides for the- election of a delegate to Congress in SeptemW, 18KA Citizeiin .ti Mc.Mi'inville have eon. tributed about ?-'L)0 to the band tour cauvmt fund.

Hender son, of Amity, has been suffering for many months with some kind of a bone disease in two fingers of one hand, and after' treatment during the pro tracted period with no beneficial re sult, amputation was resorted to on Friday last The severed fingers were as large as those of a large roan's, al though the child was but five years of ago. Lou of Ibe Corsica. Standard, Feb 21st By dispatches received in this city yesterday, it was learned that tht British ship "Corsica," Capt. Veasey, ladeu with wheat, sank outside the bar of the Columbia yesterday morn ing at 5 o'clock. She left Astoria on Monday evening in tow of a tug, and while crossing the bar on an ebb tide, struck several times, three times heav ily, causing her to spring a leak. When the tug left her she had 33 inches of water in her hold, and at 5 o'clock she sank. The officers and crew took to the lioats and arrived safely at Astoria.
