0ermany -The Protestant Congresi at
Worms.
The important movement on the
part of German Protestantism, in
tended as a demonstration against the
pretentions of the Roman Church,
-hais resulted in a general conference
at Worms, the particulars of which
we furnish you with, at the risk of
co01mmunicaticang most of that with which
you are already acquainted. The
number of delegates to this confer.
.once, hailing from.all parts of Get
iany, is estimated at 900, and more
than 20,000 strangers crowded the
-streets of that little city on the 31st
ult. Even Austria and France were
represented by delegates. The open
ing porayer of the Rev. Mr. Briegleb
closed with the words, "Lord,give
.the German people aGerman church !"
Professor Bluntshli (born in Zurich,
but of the lieidelberg University) was
-ohosen president ; and after a welcome
to the guests by Dr. Schioder the
point at issue was at oneo entered
ipon by Professor Dr. Sehenhel, who
dwelt strongly upon the fact that
Rome did not acknowledge the Augs
burg Confesbsion of Yait,h, the ti uo
pillar of religious peace, hor c1l'orts
being directed to spreading disseniou
throughout Germuny. Such attempts
must be strenuously opposed, and it
'behooved the Protestant body to or
ganize and combine in order to give
a genuine German answer to Papal
arrogance, consisting in a renewal of
the protest of their forefathers. Oth
er speakers followed, among them
Protessor F. N. H1oltzendoriff and
4 Reverend Lisco, of this city ; Zttel
and Schoellenberg, from Iluidelborg
Manohot, from Broien, &c., &c.
The prooeedings were conducted
throughtent in the most hormouious
and eno -io manner, and the follow.
ing declaration, as emanating from
the Conference of German Protestaits,
Was submitted to the meeting and
carried unanimously:
1. We, Protestants at present as
sembled in Worms, feel the conscien
tious necessity-while fully acknowl
e.ging the right of belief of our Catho
lie fellow Christians, with whom we
wish to live in peace, but also in the
full, consciouness of the religious,
moral, political and soial blessings ef
the Rteformnatigu which we enjoy-to
protest publicly and most solemnly
against the im:yutatiou oontained in
the so-calleg Apostolical. Letter of
September 13, I86, calling upon us
to return to the fold of the Roman
Catholic Char9b.
2. Always willig to unite with our
Cathoulie fellow Christians upon the
basis of pure evangelism, we do pro
test to-day, as determinedly as Luther
did in WVorms and other forefate-e
*did in Speyer, 350.years ago, against
every hierarchical and priestly tute
lage atnd against every species of op
pression of consolence, espeolally with
respect to the noxious principles- an
tagonistic to. Stato and elvilisation
expressed in the Papal Enoyolioa of
December 8, 1864, and the Syllabus
annexed thereto.
3. We extend here, at the foot of
th~e Luther monument, a brother hand
to our Catholic fellow-citisens and co
Christians en the om mon basis of
Christian spirit, German sentiment
and modern culture. But we expect
them to unite with US In the protec
tion of our highest national and spir
itual privileges in opposition to our
omnson enemy, the enemy of religi
one peace, national unity and free
developmient of civilisation.
4. We declare as the main cause of
the religious divisions which we so
much lament, hierarohioal errors, es
pecially the spirit and the actseof the
order of Jesuits, whieh 'eonduets a
life and.death coinbat against Pfotes
tantism, suppresales all spiritual liber
ty, falsifies modern- civilisation and
dominates over the Ro8man Catholic
Church, Only by deeively' repel
ling hierarchical pretentions, whleh,
since the year 1615, hav6 ..een renew
ed and constantly on the increase, on
ly by a return to pure evangelical
faith and acknowledgeinent of the
triumphs of eillization, can divided
Christendom recover'and secure per
manently peaoo etd prosperity.
5. Finally, v/e declare all efforts
within the Protestant Church tending
to esanblish hier.acial1 power of the
olergy and an ex.lusive dominion of
dogmas as a denial of the Protestant
spirit and stepping stones only to
Rome. Convinced that supineness
and indifference on the part of many
Protestants have furaishod a main
support to the reictioniry Church
party, and constituto also the princi
pal impediment in the urost powerful
German State against national and
1hurch revivifloation, we admonish
all our brethren in faith to be vigilant
and conbite together in a strong bul
wark against all tendencies menacing
spiritual and conscientious freedom.
This declaration was read a second I
time at the public market place, andj
still greater solemnity was imparted
to the proceedings by the vast assem
bly joining in the Luther hy)nn. More
than :0@ persons sat down to i sunip.
tuous banquet in the evening, at
which many toasts were proposed.
The prevailing sentiment was that of
German unity and nationality, and I
such was the enthusiasm on the occa- I
sion that most of the speakers seemed I
to have entirely forgotten the distance I
yet to be accomplished in order to j
obtaia the much coveted fatherland.

To Impede Importis to Impedo Exports, <
By impeding imports we raise the
cost of home productions, and by im..
peding exports we diminish the power
of consumers to purchase home pro.
ducts.
Whenever there is an excess of any
givon crop, say of wheat., the value of:
the whole crop is regulated by the
price which can be obtained for tbe
portion exported, as there cannot be t
two prices for the same article ut the
same time and in the same place.
Therefore although the quantity
exported may be very small, it is of
the utmost consequence to the produ
eer that its export should be uinim
peded, since ipon the price obtainable
Ior this portion inay depend the profit
or loss of his wvhole year's work.
It is alleged that we have N
not impeded exports from the United f
States; but the allegation is not true, -
for the'reason that an itnport duty imay,
and often does, have the sane effect
as.an export duty.
There can be no export unless there t
is an import, and in some cases the ,
import must be a commodity produced i
in the same country to which tihe ex- r
port is made, if the exporter is to get i
the full value of the article which lie 3
ships.
In illustration of this, let us take t
the trade with South Africa. Before I
the pussage of the tariff upon the
wool we used to ship a considerable c
Iquantity of wheat flour shipped to the i
Cape of Good Hope, to be exchanged
for Cape wool. To the extent of this
shipment the home market was re- i
lieved of surplus wheat., and the value i
of tihe whole crop wasenhanced ther
by.
SVo have impeded, or practically
prohibited the import of Cape wool,
by a high duty (froma which the Gov
ernmient fails to obtain revenue), and
therefore we cannot salt the wheat. t
But, it may be sqid, why cannot the I
Cape wool be sold elsewhere, and the
proceeds paid to us for our wvheat?1
True, this can be done., but under
what conditions T
Other nations being wiser than we
are, welcome the supply of Cape wool
because it is cheap, and as we by our <
policy of exclusion diminish the de
mand, we thereby increase their sup
ply, and reduce the price to those tn
tions which will buy it.<
WeT have forced all the Cape wool<
into the markets of London and Ant-<
werp, where the producers receive but
one-half or two-thirds as much as<
they might get if we wouldl continue]
to trade with them; thoy must pay
exchange and bankers commissions,i
and can th erefore buy of us, for gold,i
less than one-half or two-thirds as
[much wheat as they could if we would
take their wool directly from them.
IIaving thus reduced the p rice of
wheat, our farmer is compelled to do
something else, and lhe undertakes to
raise the wool, but this lie must soil at
a-very low price. Why ? Because by I
atolading the Cape wool, and reduo- 1
lng. the r abroad, we have enableda
th oreign manufacturer to .make1
cheap cloth ; in other words we have
protected him, and the home manu-<
facturer must buy his homc-grown I
wool at a correspondingly low price, I
also, or atop his mill.poi.1
In some cas~es we absolutely 'poi
bit bomd -manufactui-ing, and must
take foreign goods whether we want or
not, whevi by preventing the implort of I
torei'gri wo-ol we deprive the mantifao-<
turer'of. cert ain. kinds which -we must
have.; take broadcloth, as ao Instance,
for the -manufacture of which we havej
hot succeeded in riising a suitable
W*ool in' the United States, or "godea
m dp from what are called lusre
It may again be said w*hy not raise
the duty on woollen g6ords still higher
than it is ? Bunt the ahmuggler and frau
dulent importer impose a limit to the
rate of duty, and th ialinibthae:alrM6
dy been reached~
TheQ effect of the protective duty
upon wool baa, therefore, been as fol
Iowa.
1. To yield 'ittle or no -revenue ti
the Government.
2. To diminish tlihe export of wheat
and thereby to roduce the pitoo of th<
whole crop.
3. To protect the foreign manufac
hurer.
-1. 'To oripplo the lhomno manufactu
3.
5. To deprive the farmer of a goot
narket for wheat, and to give him
bad one for wool.
Finally, to increase the cost of cloth,
ng, an1 to diminish the power of th<
'arming population, who constitute th<
,roat mass of consumers, to buy it.
WVehave tnkon wool and wheat a
)ur examples, the same argunierit will
%pply to all other commodities.
This truth is but faintly perceived
,hat there can be no export unlesh
here is an import, and neither can
xist unless there is a profit to both
)arties in the trade. That nation
oses most by obstructing foreign
rade, which has within itself the
,reatest natural resour'ces, and the
)est educated and highest pa'A labor,
Natural resources are ia power by
vhich men are enabled to gain largo
)rodNotion with little labor ; there
oro oheapness of cost may be com
)ined with high wages to the laborer.
.ntolligent l&borers will select their
u ;r. employments better than two
undred and forty members of Con
rcss can do it for them.
We have natural resources beyond
ny nation, the most intelligent labor
rs, and full employment for all our
apital; therefore we cannot afford to
ollow some employments which pau
Pers are barbarians can do so much
oetter than we can, such as the raising
f Cape wool and other similar varie
ies.
"To say that we cannot compete
rith paupers and barbarians in such
roduction, is simply that we can and
re doing something else which is
Auch more profitable."
John S. Mosby.
A correspondent of the Richmond

iative meeting at Leesburg, Va., re
era to Col. dohn S. Mosby, the great
nrtisan lovder, Is follows:
I was gratified to notice Colonel
ohn 8. Mosby moving from group to
roup on the gourt green and urging
lie people to vote for Walker and the
xpurgated Constitution as the only
scans of escaping the evils which
ow threaten us. A gentleman re
aarked: "Why, Colonel, a year ago
on talked differently."
Mosby-"Yes; I swore Y wouldn't
egister, but I think difrerently, and
.id rather he right than coinistent.
.hon we had our own judge(- our own
ounty ofioers, and no one of tim
vas required to take the iron-clad

Citiven-"You thiiik we onuht to

Iosby-"Certainly ; negro suflrage
annot possibly impose upon us a
vorse man than Wells, and by voting
lown the Constitution, you vote to
lisfranchise yourselves, and to keep
he State under the rule of carpet
Paggers."
Citiven--"H1ow is thatt"
Mosby-" Why, the concurrent re
olution by the two houses of (Con

ixcept by the adoption of the expur

leserves all the abus9 it has received
for my own part, I cannot see any
lense in voting for Walker and against

f you defeat the latter, you keep
Weclls and his party in oflice. A vote
ignast thme amended Constitution is a
rote for Wells."
Your Reoportor-"Colonel, I am

Mosby-"Yes, and he heads his ar

The Colored Dootori in Washington.
The reject.ion of tho applications of
the colored )oetors Purvin and Au
gusta for membershii'in the Medical
Society of the District of Columbia is
exciting considerabla comment. Tho
Wamhinpton Star, ir, explairing the
case says
The question was simply that of ad.
mitting them to social fello%tship.
The Board of Examiners of the So.
granted license' to Drs. Pur% is
an, uut to practico ai soon as
they made applicatio,-and it is claim
ed teat this i. the first instance in the
country whore any medioal society
has given colored rractitioners any
status. The Society did not quite
comic ip to the mark of receiving the
colored doctors into social afliliation,
but they have shown 'themselves quito
as exclusive in regard to numerous
which applicants in the past. The
colored practitioncis will, as they be
coMO better known, b able to dispel
every prejudice to their social disad
vantage. The Medical Society of
this District was formed with a view
to prescribing a test of qualifications
for practitioners in order to shut off
quackery. The Bmtard of Fxaminers
of the society are atlioriz:d to li
Cense applicants to practice who tire
able to show themselves prope-Iy
qpualifled, and by t! *!iarter of the
society every personl v.:o undertakes
to va'twIk wi nol M - imise is
liable to a fine of $50 in each case.
It is not requisito that the applicant
shnll be of tiny puirticnl-ir r-hool of
medicine, but lie must show a know
ledge of medicino and the qualifica
tions for practice. Drs. Augusta and
Purvis hav received their licenses
from the Medical Society here, as
above stated, and have all the legal
rightr of any practitioners in the Dis
trict.
There is some talk ainofig the ex

I h4vo lived now in this home of thb

have not forgotten' the old sceirn i
Virginia, nor the kindness of many
White friends i former days. I wish
it was in my power to return for a time,
that my voice might be heard by my
volored brethren of the Southern States.
I aim i for their fato. As

continent filled with white men, .1 o int
not but be fearful in regard to the future
of th.' few millions of the people of my'
own blood in h South, now left to
their own rvsources. I see a tide ot
white ien pouring over those ftAde
whidlh have heretofore fed them ; i tide
coming from the overflowing populatyon
of Ltho Norther, States and Europe. 1

feeble, swept off the native Indians;
and now, as it ruthes in its niig lt, what
is to shield the tranlsplanted Afri-caA

If, as a body, the colored people of
