"TEN CENTS A. DAY AND BEAN
SOTIPn

Whig Railroads, Whig banners, and Whig
principles appear to be going dog cheap.-We
learn from the Cincinnati Message, that the cele-
brated Banner of the Wings, used during the
hard cider and coon skin campaign, was sold in
that city few evenings since for 25 cents. This
was one of the famous humbug banners, made to
deceive the laboring classes of the community
The following is the inscription it portrait of
General Harrison underneath which are the
words-"Two dollars aday and roast beef" on
one side, and on the other portrait of Mr.. Van
Buren, and underneath cents day and
bean soup!" We hope the purchaser was Dem
ocrat, and that he will preserve the banner to be
shown at the public meetings next campaign, as
one of the evidences Of Whig promises; for, be
assured when the time arrives for electioneering,
the Wings will deny all their promises, and dis
avow ever having deluded the people by resort
inc to the contemplate humbuggery which char
acterised the late Presidential election But will
they be believed? What says the 800 or 400
men who were discharged from the Brooklyn
Navy Yard2 Most of them voted for "a change"
they have got it. What says the 800 men dis
charged from the Philadelphia Navy Yard on
Wednesday last? They too, every man, voted
for ga change''-"for Tippecanoe and Tyler too,"
and they got what they asked fora change
But have they got their stwo dollars day and
roast beef?" Does it not my honest fellows, look
now IeetIe more like ''ten cents a day and bean

ten hour system and good wages 1t certainly
appears so to US. We must all live and learn,

THE TARIFF.

Unexpectedly, discussion has arisen in the
House of Representatives involving the princi-
pie of PROTECTIVE Tariffs 1t is gratifying to
perceive in the remarks of members, the pro-
gress which truth has made on the subject with
in few years.
Formerly, it was considered sectional mea-
sure, favorable to the North, and oppressive
only to the South Now, it is recognised as
equally or more injurious to the Northern Far
mer than to the Southern Planter, as we'll as
the Mercantile interests generally, which thrive
best when the Farmers and Planters are most
thriving. In fine, it is now understood to be a
scheme to tax the productive labor of the whole
country, North, South, and West, to enrich a
few individuals who have vested their capital in
manufacturing establishments. Certainly such
a tax is most unjust, and will not be borne by
our people when properly understood.
We will endeavor briefly to illustrate the DIFF
ference in their effect upon the people, of q
Tariff for Rcrenue, and IhrFfor Protection.
