MIR. FILLMORE AND THE TARIFF.


The Hon. Mr. Fillmore appeared to be parti-
cularlv outraged on Tuesday last because this
protracling of the present session OF Congress
was attributed to the Committee of Ways and
Means. He declared that it was the second
time that the charge had been made upon him,
and he then said that it was attributable to the
Secretary of the Treasury. We threw out
hint yesterday that we should soon give the
history of the Twelve Line Bill and in that
we shall show that it was originated purposely,
and in consequence of the delay Of the Commit
tee of Ways and Means Several weeks were
wasted in an idle discussion-called by one of
Mr. Fillmores friends humbug-as to whe-
Their that part of the Presidents Message which
alluded to the Tariff should be sent to the Com
mittee of Ways and Means, or that on Manu-
features. When this was decided, the Com
mittee hung fire for several weeks m ore, and
finding they could do nothing, because they did
not understand the subject, they then called on
Mr.. Forward for a bill, well aware that it was
neither his province, his duty, nor his inclination
TO give them projet of a Tariff. They were,
or ought to have been, fully aware that it was
Secretary of the Treasury, as the Consttu-
ton says expressly that the measure shall
rest entirely with the House Of Representa-
tives. BY callingon the Secretary they presumed
to throw into his hands power expressly con-
ferred on them by the Constitutions; thus ac-
knowledging their total incompetency to dis
charge the duties of their station, and with at
least the appearance of shutting the response
bility from their own shoulders TO those of the
Secretary of the Treasury, who was neither
bound to consider nor reply to their extraordna-
ry demand. The attempt of Mr.. Fillmore TO
make Mr.. Forward accountable for the delay, is
as singular as it is unjust, and but adds weight
to the supposition formed at the time and area-
dy noticed.
Mr.. Fillmore, finding himself in trouble for
his unheard of delay, reminds US of the school
boy who, when caught at bad trick, points at
another, who is perfectly innocent, and ex-
claims: "You did it, you know you did. Oh!
what naughty boy" In this case Mr.. Fill
more is the naughty boy. He is very naughty
for having engaged to do what he is incapable
of performing secondly, for delaying to tell his
fellow members of his incapacity in time third
ly, in call ing for assistance where he had no
right to ask it, and dele5ating to the Secretary
of the Treasury power confined, constitutions
ally, to the House; fourthly for waiting sin.
gle moment after he made the unconstitutional
call; and filthy, for endeavoring to screen
himself from cvnsure at the expense Of Mr..
Forward.
Enough for the present. We shall have more
to say to Mr. Fillmore in day or two, when
we shall give the history of the Twelve Line
Bill and its dgnifed Godiathers, the editors Of
the lntelligencer

BLUE SULPHUR Srarses, july 4. 1912

MIR Ed';os-l" your paper OF the 2lsi, you copy
an article from New York paper; you thea go o n
to remark; 1--WE in Richmond know very littls
more OF the Virginia Springs Than they do in New
York The proprietors OF the Elo', Red Sulphur,
and DibTelps are those only who 10 not seem dis
posed to conceal the virtues Of their waters from the
public, or let them know they prepared to en-
terrain company"
In the above, the writer thinks you do many Of
the Springs injustice. Al! have had their waters
analyz and published to tie world When the
Legislature Of Virginia made an appropriation for a
geological survey Of the State. it was made an IS
pecial duty OF the geologsi make careful analy-
els Of all the Virginia Springs; every facility has been
furnished him for this purpose; and he has furnished
the general result but has withheld, il understood
the minute results for place in his forthcoming
work, which has been long and unxiousy looked
for by the pablo.
Lay aside the duties or your Office for few weeks
come TO our mountains, breathe free invigorat-
ing nir, drink at our fountain, (wherc you will be
furnished with the anaysis) taste Of our fine veni-
SON and mutton, &c, Join IN the dance, there you
will find fine band Of music,) SEQ the preparation
made foe the comfort and pleasure OF visitors; you
will return to Richmond, and say, the Blue Sulphur
Springs deserved better notice from you.
