LIc School BILL, in every stage Of its pro
gress through the House, and by endeavoring
to hav: il post poned in the Senate. e.--Uid.
TARIFF BILL, It will be seen by the pro-
ce6dngs Of Congress in this days paper, that
the amendment, offered to the Tariff Bill, by
MIR Mallary has been rejected This vote
may be considered n death blow 10 the hopes
Of the anufaciurer. during the reign Of the
opposition in Congr1ss. We not dsappoin-
the Jackson party, were opposed to Domestic
Industry, and that they would defeat every
measure calculated to promote the interest
Of that cause, and We have not been mis,a
ken.
The following article from the National
Journal, places the question in its proper sha PC:
| THE REAL STATE OF THE CASE 1t
seems TO us TO be high time that the People
! Should understand the true situation of the
question, respecting an increased protection
on Wool and WooLLEN GooDs, now pending
in the House of Representatives.
| Argument is exhausted; and there is, after
! all, very great reason 10 fear, III n0thins
bit an inpe, attire expression IF puJiic opinion

subi'ct, to be pissed at ne present sessio
| The real and sober truth Is--That Jack.
ION member was elected -PEAKER, at The
commencement of The session;
That ihe' Speaker, by the rules of the House
appoints all Committees;
That on the Committee Of Manufa cires
ne appointed Mr.. MA.LARY Mr.. STEVENSON
of Pi. Mr.. CoNDIcT, Mr.. MooRE, of Ky. Mr.
i. SrAHpERRY, Mr.. WRIGHT, Of New YORK
ana Mr.. MARTINI;
That FIVE, ont OF these SEVEN members Oi
the Committee, viz: Messrs. -tcvenson, Moore
Wright, Stanbcrry, and Martin. are open and
avoNed f. ends of General Jachson;
That Mr. M,Il,ry and Mr. Cnndc,. ard
they alone Of the Committee, are friends OF tn,
Adm ns,rliion;
That Mr.. Military and Mr. Coniict, were
mcm5ers Of the last Congress, and both volco
for. and supported tho WooLLENs BILL, oil

That Mr.. Stevenson and MIR Moore were

Admin s. iatIon members, were against H.:
Tnat the PROVISIONS Of this bill are SUCH IL
the opinor ct The most intelligent farmcrs ,nt
manufacturers, that no RATIONAL man can b,
expected to vote for it; these manufl urer
aud wool growers all agree, that This bill
would njurc both. THIS is the language
those interested, from New Hampshire Il
Washington, and from the sea to The Mis-
sissippi;
y That it imposes heavy duty on cheap
coarse wool, such as we do not raise in thi
country, as must entirely break up all til,
=, manufa ctures OF carpets, negro cloths, ant
other coarse fabrics;
That this enormous duty on imported coars,
: wool is obviously designed to cate ch the suppor
= of the farming interest; while all well inforne,
wool growers know, that the manufacturer
above alluded to must use this cheap importe,
}. wool, or stop their factories; and that, If the
!, stop, then of course, there will be no marke
: for their OWN wool, at any price;
u That the very high duties on moasses, an,
: S ONE other articles were obviously inserted 70
J. the purpose Of giving the bill such charactc
=, as that tho Northern and Eastern member
could not vote for il;
: That The whole proceeding is apparent
It Designed to produce two results: first, to dc
q feat tho measure altogether, second, to thro,
its defeat on the friends ofthe Administra

u That Mr. Malary has moved, and tho mo
