Gov. HunpARDs MrssAoE-The recent Mes
snge of Gov. Hubbard to the Legislature oil New
Hampshire is a long document, and treats oi quite
a number Of things 1t takes up the Rhode Island
question: and us n thing Of course sustans the Dorr
side of il. He recommends, also, that New Hnn'p-
shire shall refuse her share of the Land Distribution
Our object m calling the attention of our readers
10 the Message, is TO show what are Northern Loco
Foco views upon the Tariff and the Governor
recommendation to nuiiJy law Of Congress, re-
ourinp the States TO district their Territory for the
choice of Representatives
Upon the New Tariff he spoke follows;
4 Tariff like Ills un,qudi in its oraetions, diserim-
mating in its character, tookiag more TO PROTECTION
than TO rereHue, is without hat uniformity in lis OPP
erations which atone eon mote il eogformotie to the
Constitution IF Me United Suites.
We are often told that the question of protection
Is not n question between the two parties But
there is nothing more certain than that the loco TO-
co party is determined TO wage deadly hostility to
the whole system of protection. We say TO Me-
chancs and Artisans, be not deceived swallow not
the pill, though ever smoothly wrapped up in the
Jadieous pbruscology of loco focosm.
Again, on the subject ofApportionmcnt the Gov
says,
"Cougrcss at lis late session passed an act re-
quirng the respective States TO district their own
Territory for the election of Representatives 10 the
popular brauch of our Government, and also for fix
ing the ratio for such representation New llamp-
SHIRE according 10 the provisions of the act, will be
entitled to only four Representatives in Congress
for the next ten years Entertaining a decided
opinion against the policy of dividing our State in
10 districts for the choice Of Representatives, aud
believing that Congress has no constitutional power
10 require of the State Govcrnmc nts such net of
legislation hope no sueh lac ,eW be passed at Tie
present session
We had hoped that the doctrine Of Notification
would never he proclaimed in New England-cer
tainly not by holding high and responsible
Office that Of Governor But the very learn
cd and wise Governor thinks the law unconstltu-
uona WELL suppose any individual in the State
of New Hampshire refuses 10 obey the legal enact
ments of the State, because he deems them uncon-
sttutional Would the Governor think him usli-
fable in obeying the laws only as far che under
stands them TO be constitutional Certainly not
We deem il to be the duty ofcvery American cit
izcn, who has regard for law aud ORDER to set his
face a flint against every species OF Modification
and 'Repudiation.' The doctrines promul gated by
many of the loco foco oracles, consider danger
in the extreme, and we shall fail 10 combat
them, in whatever form, or under whatever guise
they may make their appearance.

Horrible Outrage-In the Runinsas
Qowa) Gazette we find the most extraordi-
nary and cruel relation of circumstances
that we believe ever went forth in type. An
old man lived alone, and had forbidden a
daughter, who lived near, and her husband,
or even their children, ever TO approach his
dwelling, merely on account of some whim-
steal pique that the old wretch had taken
against his child. One morning the inhu-
man being found his grandchild, under three
years of age, climbing upon his garden rail
and her deliberately went for his rifle, and
shot the boy dead. The victim fell inside
the fence. The old man reloaded and sat
watching. Not long after the mother came
seeking for her child, and the moment she
touched her fathers garden rail- as she did
with shrek the instant she perceived her
dead child, the old brute shot her in the
temple and killed her stone dead on the spot.
The hoary maniac (as he is now accounted)
shot the father also when he came, and he
is now in prison to answer for the three muir
dcrs.

states that few days since "countryman
and his wife, on their way to town, overlook

loaded with hay, and driven by negro with

treated the negro to drains on the road till
both became drunk. About mile from
town, the negro fell off the load, and the
wagon wheels passing over him, broke both
his legs. The horses ran away, and the wo-
man jumped from the wagon and broke both
her legs Her husband knew nothing OF

was arrested at the corner of Seventh and

sued it from the brick yards reused him up

HYPOCRISY UNMASkED.

The following paragraph, designed to hum
bug the people of New England in general,
and of Vermont in particular, made its APP
pearance few days ago in the Globe news
paper published in this city.
KEEP IT BEFORE TIE PEOPLE.
That on the 18th day of August, loi2, bill
was introduced in the lonse OF Representatives
OF the United States, by CHARLES J. lNGEasoLL,
a democratic member form the State of Penn
sylyaEia, proposing 10 enact0 tarW Of duties, in
accordance with the prayer of the petitions be-
fore Congress, and sufficiently high to afford
ample revenue for the just wants OF the Govern
ment, and afford reasonable protection TO all the
industrial pursuits OF the people, and that said
| bill was sustained by the democratic party from
the North, and voted down by the whole whia
porty of the House. II is therefore nor erjdeR
that the wings, as party, arc willing to sacri-
ice tho tariff interests Of the country, and what
they contend is essential TO the industrial pur-
suits of the people, in order TO distribute the
proceeds of the public lands to bsaeGi me sJecR
lating, stock obJiag and corporation interests d
he States.
Now this is the most barefaced attempt tc
deceive the people of the North that | have
ever known TO be made even in the column.

THE DILEMMA,
Or THE Ass PLACED IN A QUANDARY

Or THE Ass PLACED IN A QUANDARY.
To those, who are acquainted with the
"Spirit ofthe Age" and the course adopted
by its Editor the past winter and spring on
the subject of tariff, its present position will
seem not little singular. Then, no ultra
nulifer could have cIamored louder or la
bored harder to convince the ireemen of
Vermont of the blessings that would flow
from FREE TRADE AND DIRECT
TAXATION. Now, however it is all for
a tariff, and according to this sagacious edi-
tor, too much protection, even, could not be
laid upon wool. From about the first of
January last, down TO the last Of March,
speeches of members Of Congress who were
IN iavor of Free Trade we're paraded before
ms readers, and clumsy editorials deduced
from these speeches numbered mp the col
ulhhs Of his paper and were weekly doled
out TO the public, until his own patrons even,
became nauseated with the stuff, and he was
compelled to deslst from policy, rather thar
from any better motive. OF all this, TIE
Wings did not complain deeming it best to
give the fellow the full length of the rope
and if his own party even were satisfied with
and approved of his course, to let them EN-.
brace the doctrines if they wished and in du,
time, by bitter experience to reap the con
sequences.
One old farmer, however, IN in Vest
ford, who signed himself "Westford Far
mcr" discussed the subject with the Age ma
through the columns of the Burliuptoa Ere
Press and by means of few figures battle,
all the fine spun theories of the "Aoe"
compelled its Editor to back out of ~

NAILED TO TIE
COUNTER.

Every body knows that tho locofocos
have all along pretended that they were
willing to 60 for protection ifthe Distribution
clause was stricken from the Bill. Now let
the people observe what they may expect
from that party in the way of protoc ton, and
notice likewise the sincerity Of the gentle
men in their professions of willingness to 90
for "A tariff. A resolution was introduced
to suspend the rules, in or der TO the passage
of "a resolution declaring it expcdent to pass
the same bill vetoed by the President,
TING THE PROCEEDS OF TIE
PUBLIC LANDS STRICKEN OUT.
On this question, incredible as it may seem
to those who are not acquainted with Loco
foco consistency, ONLY FOURTEEN
LOCOS VOTED IN FAVOR while the
rest all VOTED AGAINST the proposition.
So, after all the hypocrtical prating we have
had about willingness to go for protection,

with it, here we come to the upshot 81 the
sincerity Of these glorious friends, to the
"dcar people," and find them voting against
