Gen. Jackson caused the ladies' OF the Sscreta-
ries to be invited to tea, on an afternoon IN inc
simmer. They anne, Mrs. Eaton, OF course among
them. Their carriages were In waiting 10 carry

hint from him. dismissed them all, saying that inc
Presidents carriage would convey the ladies nome.
Before dark the ladies requested that their carris-
ges might be called. and rose to 60. Carriages
were called, but none came, and they were INFORM
ed that no carriages were there They expressed
surprise and chagrin and the President interposeo
and said that it blunder of his servant or his
secretary and that his barouche was at the door,
and at their service. 1t then about sunset ana
too late TO send for their carriages They tncro
fore accepted the offer, which was made with an
air OF great gallantry and good humot.
The General gave his arm to Mrs. Eaton, ana
placed her on the right hand back seat. The 9TH
er ladies occupied the vacant places; and in this
situation Jacksons coachman, in an open barouche
and four paraded them the whole length of Penn
syvania Avenue! The affair attracted general
attention, because the intercourse of the Ia
dies and the Presidents motive for this polite
stratagem, were well understood-Nass. Journal.
The Vice President asserts that the Tariff is
equal in its effects and operation on the several
parts of the United States, from the fact, that
section is in favor of and the other opposed TO it,
| The fact does not warrant the conclusion. But
verv few years since, Mr.. Calhoun and the South
were the advocates and the friends of the Tariff,
and New England was opposed to It. The Tariff
of 1916 imposed by the South. At that time,
and prior to it, New England was exclusively en-
gagged in commerce; our wealth consisted in our
ships, but seeing the policy of the Government,
| our capitalists gradually Withdrew their immense
resources from foreign commerce, and vested
! them in manufactures of various kinds. We
then driven aganst wishes from an accustomed
employment and forced by the policy of the Gov
! eminent to engage in pursuits The South
sanctioned the protection given by the laws to do
.mestic industry and manufactures and the North,
considering the policy of the Government as set
tied and the faith of the Government as pledged to
protect dsuppurt home labor, vested an immense
amount in the manufacturing business In our in
FAINT establishments we felt our weakness and i'm
'becilty we were hike child attempting to wres-
tic with Hercules.
The Government beheld with anxiety the alarm
ing situation Of the country and from year to year
continued to extend additional protection, until
, our own market waslgven to our own citizens.
; This is the situation of the country. New
England has hundreds ofmillions of dollars vested
permanently in manufactures; vested under the
solemn pledge of the Government to protect them !;
a pledge sanctioned by the South-by the very
States now the most anxious to desert and abandon
, them to a runous and unequal competition.-
Should the Government under the advice of Mr..
Calhoun and the South, destroy the Tariff it would
infct an irreparable injury on the manufacturing
States; it would be guilty of the greatest breach
of faith that was ever perpetraed by the Govern
2 ment against the governed Mr.. Calhoun in his
address, appears to be sensible of this fact and to
avoid the immediate evil, proposes slow but sure
poison under the operation of which the coun-
try might linger, and lingering live. But should
his present plan go into operation the power and
the glory of the nation would soon pass away
