THE TARIFF.

b
The position Of the Administration on this
question is impregnable. Ultralsm on either
hand is avoided, and course suggested which
must elicit the appreciation OF the whole country,
and sustain all its various interests. 1t only re-
mains for Congress to carry out the Presidents
equitable system, and place the fiscal affairs of
the Government as well as the business of the
People on basis at once satisfactory and stable
In fact, we have not observed that any excep-
ton has been taken, In any respectable quarter,
to the views Of the President A few ultra par
tisan presses, both for and against protection,
have assailed him but the good sense and mod
Grafton of the country approve his salutary
suggestions
1t is perhaps fortunate that there is no sort Of
necessity for the agitation of the abstract ques
ton of protection for protection's sake. The
uras will therefore fail entirely in their attempts
to produce discussion upon it. The People
can see that the necessities Of the Government
mperativelv require the imposition of duties for
rerenue, sufficient to afford incidentally all the
protection needed, or asked by the reasonable
advocates Of that policy. Even with the land
fund restored, there is no other way to sustain
the Government, ex ept by direct internal taxes !;
and this is a system, which. we believe, but few
advocate now, and which is not likely to be
resorled to except in times OF great public
necessity.
In levying the revenue duties, the President
is in favor of the discrimination so strongly
urged by the old Republican Chief Magistrates.

Mr.. MADISON, (which leaves to the sagacity

THE TARIFF-oUR OPINIONS.

We did hope that none would be found so
reckless Of the in erests of the Union, as to en-
deavor to make political capital out of question
so peculiarly delicate and dangerous as the Ia
riff. That it is subject specially inhammatory,
we need not inform any one-and knowing that
it is so, we have felt anxious that its principles
and details should be discussed as we have al
ready said in spirit Of concession and COM
promise. We certainly have been panied at
finding that any one could be found to raise the
watch-word Of party on topic which, above
all others, requires a sacrifice of party drill and
sectional prejudice. 1t requires still more. 1t
has been said, and we believe with truth, that
legislation to be wise must be not only abstract
ly right, but it must be adapted to the condition

possible, conflicting interests and warning pas
