In this critical state of things, Mr.. Nc
KEENAN, of Pennsylvania brought forward
the vetoed bill with the land distribution

from duty. The result was that Mr.. In
gersops bill was rejected and Mr.. Nc. Ken
mans adopted in Committee of the whole,
and reported to the House. Then came
the tug of war. Such a contest never
witnessed before in Congress. You will
see the history oft in the Intelligencer of
this morning. The result was that Mr.. Nc
Kennsn's bill passed by majority of one.
The following is an analysis of the vote.

Violated Pledges.

Of all accusations, the last which locofo
cos shou bring against the Wings is that of
violating their pledges. 1hey-who so no
toriously broke their trusts-should ut least

GrThe Loco Focos arc propagating a
miserable lie to the effect that Gov Paine
instructed his agents TO pay on y "a cents
per pound for wool for his factory. He is
not locofoco enough to do that. He goes
against locofoco doctrines of reducing the
price Of the raw material to the low price
OF other countries, as well as against the
low wages system of the locofoco creed
Nor does he like Nathan Smile. Grind tbe
faces of the poor with mortgages and high
rates of interest, and TO make interest still
higher, like the said Nathan, seek to DESTROY
Banks, and have all the money boarded in
the hands of rich men.
Gov. Paine in the course Of his business
pays out for wool, to the farmers of Yer.
mont, at the current prices, about 100000
annually. Nathan SMILES business has
been quite ola different character. He has
sold, say from S. to $4,000 worth of spir'
ITS annually, and the money has gone, save
what did not lodge in his own hands, out Of
Inc State and country. We would do him
no injustice, and will say what we learn to

Hypocrite.

That our readers may become more and
more convinced of the duplicitv and fraud
of the Editor of the Spirit of the Age,and the
utter insincerity of his recent Tariff pro-
LESSONS we annex couple of extracts from
that sheet in addition TO what we published
last week. In fact, his paper from Dec.
last, down to April, contains scarcely any
thing else but constant issue OF Free
Trade articles, and speeches of mem
bers of Congress, who maintain this
pernicious doctrine. But all of sudden,
we behold him making himself hoarse al.
most, by his constant clamor about Tariff
on ,oooI. for the purpose of throwing dust
in the eyes Of our freemen, and catcnine
the votes of the farmers. Were the fellow
in any way sincere in his professions we
would gladly announce the accession oil
fresh ally to the ranks of the friends OF
Protective Tariff. But it is because we
know that he is not honest in his preten-
sions. that we thus call the attention of the
public to the course he has heretofore pur-
sued. In his paper of 3lst Dec. last, near
the close of long article against Protee'

Upon this subject of Tariff of Protec-
ton we have never said much, hitherto
allowing the cidercrats in the state, to make

now, as we think, that the people began to
look into the subject, somewhat; and to

veIged wofully against the horrible high
pressure tariff of 1928 and even now con-
dennis all except incidental protection"
did not, before reading the above extract,

personal and inveterate, that you would, for

iect of the Tariff Of 1928. But such would
seem to be the case, as the following state

You, Sir, we'll know that. in the Tariff

FROM AN UNPUBLISHED TEMPERANCE

Permit me, in conclusion, by a few

led, as they are, with the other benevolent
operations of the present day.

own times and my own country, which

bears along, to be lntemperance; but

face of things quite changed. As when a
turbid torrent, fed by no living fountains,
dries up on some barren sand, the fiery
food had disappeared, and, in its place, a
river broad and deep flowed on, over whose
banks, and spreading thence far on every
side, glorious light was manifest, which,
my instructor taught me, was the smile of
God.

Third Party-a locoio-
CO game.

We observe in The last Patriot-mark
that-a defence of the imposition practised
upon the people by sending abroad foreign
paper, purporting to be published within our
own state. Every line and word of that
article bespeaks its author to be Col. j.
Miller. He began his political career as
one of the Patriot clique--has run through
all the phases Of the moon, as Jackson
man, a Harrison man, a Birney man, and
has as last fallen again into the arms of the
Patriot. 1t is high time for us to say, that
we are fully persuaded that LOCOFOCO
ISM is at the bottom of the third party abo
lition movements of the present day. The
locofoco Stale Committee hare hand IN this
business; Miller is leagued with Marston
and Barker and Flint, and G. W. BAR
KER HIMSELF ATTENDS TO THE
DISTRIBUTION OF that fraud upon the

When next he takes out load to be put on
board the Northern Stage we advise hun TO
be sure that there are no Wing witnesses
aboard. Their aim is solely TO break down
the Wings, elect locofoco lieutenant Gov

der the State. To this end they got Bar
Der put on to the state ticket, while Judge
Williams and Mr.. Hale were put there mer-
civ as bait to draw the Wing abolitionlsts
on to Barber. To accomplish this end,
they gathered up locofocos from the streets
of Clarendon the other day, to go into an
abolition convention and vote down mo-
ton to Dr. Ranney's name on the abolition
ticket in the place of BARRIERS. To this end
they get up third party senatorial tickets
for the Wing abolitionists to support, while
the locofocos will all vote their own ticket
thus hoping to elect locofocO Senators
even in whig counties, by mere plurality
of votes. To the same end, you will find
locofocos busily engaged in fomenting d.
visions in the election of town representa-
tives Such are tricks of locOfocism. and
