sHAY,s RESURRECTION.

The Shay's Instruction in Massachusetts
has been frequently alluded to of late, as al
fording parallel TO the course expected from
South Carolina. But there is in fact little
or no parity in the case. In Massachusetts,
the instruction was quelled by the state au-
thorities, while in South Carolina it is the
state authorities themselves who are leading
the incipient rebellion. Shays has neither Of
talent nor power to make his influence felt, nor
talents TO delude or guide the multitude. He
attained the rank Of Captain in The army OF
the revolution; but he acquired n" laurels in
that honorable service, and voluntarily resign
ed his rank in the army and retired to private
life before the objects ofthe war were achieved.
When peace was proclaimed the finances OF
the states were in confusion, and the affairs of
individuals embarrassed The debt of Massa-
chusetts alone was five millions, and taxation
of course heavy.
The number of debtors was so great that in
1882 the legislature had been reduced TO resort
to the empirical expedient of an act requiring
the creditors to receive in payment for their
debts, cattle and other specific articles ofprop-
erty rendered by the debtors. This relief
quackery only exasperated the disease, and the
law was suffered to expire in a year. Dlscon.
tented debtors then held conventions, and soon

WEDNESDAY, FEB. ~.
THE TARIFF.

The TARIFF
The bill from the House of Representatives
''to modify the act of 1882, and all other acts
imposing duties on imports" was read second
time.
Mr.. Clay stated, that in the present stage
of the session, he believed no amendment would
be offered to the bill 1t was not his intention
however, to p ess bill which seemed to be so
favorably accepted by the Senate, and he sup
posed that it would be proper that it should
have its final reading to-morrow.
Mr. GRUMPY asked whether the Senator
from Kentucky [Mr. Clayl had examined the
bill, and found it the same, in all parts, as the
one heretofore before the Senate.
Mr. CLAY replied that he had examined it,
and found 1t essentially the same.
With this Mr.. GRUMPY said he was satisfied.
Mr. DIcKERsoN then rose, and said that
however unpleasant might he the situation in
which he placed himself he felt it his duty to
offer an amendment to the bill. He did not be-
|lieve that it could endanger its passage, and il,
appeared to him to be SO essential as to demand
attention 1t was "a provision, that the rule by
which the graduation of duties shall be made,

Commerce and Navigation for the last year.
He read a letter which he said was from a
highly respectable commercial correspondent
of New York, which expressed not only the
same ideas but the Identical words which he
had himself made use of on Il former occasion
when speaking upon this subject. He was a,
ware that it would he objected, that tins amend

next session Of Congress; but ho was unwil.

Mr.. CLAY said that it was with extreme re-
,j,ot ho to tha N
fered by his friend from New jersey. He
would be gratifed if he could see the possible
! ity of Incorporating any amendment with The
bill at the present session of Congress without
endangering its passage. He did not, howe
ever, believe the amendment Of the Senator
at all essential to the object intended, He ur-
ged the necessity of immediate action upon the
bill both from the shortnes- of the time left Of
the Session, and the multiplicity of business
before the other branch of the Legislature. He

Treasury, las he believed he could,) would take
up the act in the spirit in which it was framed
no difficulty could arise and no amendment
would be necessary. He said he should ask

) Mr. WEBSTER, although he believed this
and the several other amendments were desira

jersey [Mr. Dickerson] would withdraw it.
Mr. Smith said he did not rise to speak OF
the amendment, but he gave notice that hi

follows yeas 81, nays los.
Mr.. DEARBORN moved the previous qucs-
ton on the bill
The CHAIR was ascertaining whether the
motion was seconded, when
Mr. McDUFFIE rose and asked leave to adj
dress an appeal to the House
The SPEAKER was proceeding in the count,
when
Mr.. McDUFFIE insisted on being heard
Great confusion arose: but amidst cries Of
'order" and "count," Mr.. Mods voice was
heard, saying that all he asked was fair discus
sion. If gentlemen were disposed to hear the
opponents OF the bill, he was ready to meet
them; but If not, and if he could get forty men
to stand by him, he would continue to move
and call for yeas and nays until
the end of the session.
Mr. CARSON exclaimed ~ will support you.
SIR" Several other voices cried out in sim,>
lar manner.
The SPEAKER called to order
Mr., BELL rose and began to speak. but his
words were inaudible from the noise
Mr.. McDUFF1E moved repeatedly to adjourn.
The SPEAKER called him to order, and adj
monished him that member was on the floor
AS socn as the reporter could hear any thing
distinctly,
Mr.. BELL was saying, that he had no wish
TO cut off discussion, if that was what the op-
ponens of the bill desired; and If they were
ready to discuss its merits, and not to put It by
he should not sustain the motion for the pres
vious question.
Mr.. McDUFFIE, moved that the House adj
journ.
The Chair decided the motion to be out of
order, the House having previously resolved,
that it would at certain hour take a recess,
and meet at 6 o'clock
Mr.. DEARBORN explained his reasons for
having moved the previous question-whlch
was not to prevent fair discussion, but TO pre-
vent circumvcntive course, calculated to get
rid of or defeat the bill
Mr.. DANIEL and Mr. DEARBORN had some
further, rather coloquial discussion; when the
hour of four having arrived,
The House took recess till six O'Clock.
