ments made with it were unsuccessful. 1t did

half the distance that the common cannon did,
and the force with which a shot sert from it
penetrated a resisting body, is far less. Its on
ly advantage is in the swifincss Of its discharg.

30 it seems that the old mode Of killing peo.
pie is good yet, and that tho celebrated steam
gun is to make no new era in the history Of
wars and fghtlngs. Well, let it BIO even so.

should enable tho French to shove oil the rest
Of the inhabitants Of the earth from of the

be a good thing.

"THE TARIFF SYsTEM.--The system OF
protecting the less fourishing branches Of our
manufacturers by judicious protecting duties IS
one IN tho wisdom and expcdiency OF which a
large majority Of the people Of the United
States cordially concur"
The above paragraph is from the Hallowcll
Advocate, a paper published in a section Of
the country as unfavorably affected by the
operation Of the Tariff, as any east Of New
York, and breathes a spirit Of independence
as honorable as il lie just.
Perhaps the State Of Maine imports as much
molssscs and sugar as all the rest of New
England. Nearly all her is cngag-
ed in the wcst-India trade, and taken in con-
nexion with her lumber expectations, is now a
saving, and has formerly been a money-mak-
ing business. This trade the Tariff has nearly
annihilatcd /; and yet a majority Of the inha-
bitants of that State entertain the opinions ex-
pressed by the Hallowell Editor. Ought not

From the motion Of Mr.. Dwight 10 have
that part OF tho Report OF tho War Depart.
ment printed, which relates 10 the Massachu.
sets claim. We anticipate an attempt a, the
present session TO bring this subject before
Congress, and il possible, have the claim al.
lowed. 1t is ardsnily to be hoped that gen
tlemen will lock ut the precedent, before they
put their names on tho journal in favor Of this
bill ; that they will weigh we'll the considera-
ton OF the times, when obedience 10 the or
ders Of the General Government was withheld
by tho authorities Of Missa chusetis, and
when The Prosidcn, Of Tho Uaitcd States was
told that State troops knew no higher author
ity than thoir Governor. Tho State retained
the command Of the troops, and now let the
State pay them. Size was foolisa enough for
a mere shadow 10 forfeit all claim of payment
from the n~aiioha II chest, and now let her reap
tho fruits of her folly. 1t will have a bad ten
dency 10 reinnncrate her for a disobediencc
~hich approached so near to treason, that it

This question has been harped upon long
enough, and if il is now brought up, lot it he

permit it TO employ the time of our National
Legislature. 1t should be blotted from the
book OF our remembrance. or only be permitted
10 stand as an example TO such as have a dis
position to do the like upon II similar occasion.

SoUrH-CARoLINA REsoLuTIoNs.--The
inha bitants Of the Southern States generally,
and South Carolina in particular, are full of
resolves, breathing hostility TO the Tariff and
the Protective System. In some Of the States
they show their disapprobation by resolving to
wear no cloth Of New-England manufa cture,
thereby fur,hsrihg in a small degree the very
principles they are labouring to prove to be
unjust, impoltIc and oppressive. In other
States they conine themselves TO putting
down high-sounding terms upon paper. and
talking about Southern rights and c%onstitu-
,ional objections. The following is one Of q
number of strings Of resolutions, offered to the
Legislature of South Carolina AT the present
session
"Rcsolrcd, That all dutios imposed by Con-
qrcss, on imposts, not for revenue, but TO con-
troll the industry Of The country, are unconsttu-
tionsl.
"Resolped. That the acts commonly called
the Tariff laws, passed in 1924 and 1928, for
the encouragement Of manufactures, are DELHI
crate, palpable, and dangerous infractions Of
the Constitution. H..
20 Resoiped, That those laws are partial and
oppressive in their operation upon tho Southern
States, and more particularly upon this State ;
and in their consequences calculated TO produce
the ruin Of one section Of the country, to cor
rupt the public morals Of another, and TO de-
stroy the liberty Of oil.
"'R,,oiped, That the States, when their re-
served rights are palpably. deliberately and
dangerously violated by the General Cover
,nent, have. under the Constitution, the right,
acting in their high sovereign capacity, to in
,srpose and arrest the usrrpation.
Resoired That il lie tho deliberate opinion
Of this Legislature, that. to defend and protect
the Constitution OF the United States in lie true
me sning. to preserve unimpairsd tho reserved
rights OF this State, and to protect its citizens
from impending ruin, such interPositien is now
ne cessary.
"ResoIred, That Q COMMITTEES Of DO
raised to devise and report such measures as
may be best calculated TO carry into cfoct the
foregoing rosolutioss."
