it will yet be done We hope the ultra Wings,
who, in their unrelenting hostility TO the
President, would gladly see the country plunged
ia irreparable ruin, and are exertng them
selves to produce such a calamity, are
doomed to defeat and disappointment
We trust that the honest members of both par
ties will not be willing to sacrifice the revenue
bill on a mere cav about the disposition OF the
land fund. We submit il 10 Congress, and 10 the
country, if this fund is not matter of seconda-
ry importance in comparison with a judicicus
revision Of the Tariff. We ask the People the
Wigs, if they are prepared to sustain those
Legislators who would willingly destroy any Ia
riff bill, rather than consent TO suspension OF
the Distribution act until the National debt is
paid We trust that the opinions oil the Peo-
pie on this subject will be speedily made known
through the Press, and by memorials TO Con
gress. We desire TO know if the mdnufdctu-
rers themselves attach the same vital import
ance to distribution that is done by the ultra
Wings in Congress. This is momentous ques-
ton.

CONGRESS-.

In the House, on Saturday, the most Of the
day was consumed in the consideration of the
great Louisiana claim-that day having been
previously set apart for that purpose by reso-
luton adopted on the motion of Mr.. Dawson
The merits Of the case were debated at length
by Mr.. Moore, in favor Of the claim, and by
Mr.. Cave Johnson, in opposition.
Previous to the agitation Of the question
some preliminary business was transacted-the
most important being the adoption of a resolu-
ton offered by Mr.. Gushing, calling on the Pre-
sident for the report made by the Commission
crs on the Mexican claims, and for information
az TO the present condition Of those claims

ten days later intelligence.
Nothing official has transpired respecting the move

Sante Fee Ii is generally understood that General

GENERAL CASS.

We perceive the Protest Of our Minister at
Paris against the right of search, has been
roughly attacked by the Intelligencer, and the
Intelligencer in turn, attacked by the Globe,
and the shafts made to glance against the Ad-
ministratou This is all wrong
In the first place, General Cass certainly
knows his duty better than the lntelligencer can
tell it him, and the Administration is no more
responsible for the assertions OF the Intelligent
Ger than il is for the London Herald, paper
resembling it in many respects. In the second
place, the wisdom and patriotism of General
Cass entie him to the confidence OF the Exc
cutive, and we doubt not he enjoys it, AT least
pens will not be found wanting, either in his ma
tive country or France to defend his fair name
against any open or insdious assaults that may
be made upon IT.
Why does not the Globe make the Admins
tration responsible for the assertions OF the Bos-
ton Courier, New York American, Louisville
Journal, and Alexandra Gazette

DISTRIBUTION.

The enemies of the Administration are en-
deavoring to show that the President in 1889
was in favor Of unconditional distribution
They have failed of success. But if he lods in
favor of the measure in 1885, we contend that
there would be no Inconsistency in his opposi
ton to it now Iheh, there was surplus re-
venue in the Treasury. Now, the Government
is in debt. 1t would be strange consistency
indeed which would impel man to advocate
measure of expediency at all times, and under
all circumstances. AT war with England, Mr..
CLAY would advocate an attack on Canada-at
peace with all the world would he still
advocate the attack to preserve his consis-
tencu? And so with distribution. The Ar
my and Navy are broken up for want Of reve-
nue., and shall the millions arising from the
lands be thrust out of the Treasury
Consistency! Mr.. Clay opposed National
Bank at a time when It's operation might have
relieved the dstrt sses Of the country, in some
measure-no,c, he DEGREES the establishment Of
such an institutions, when it would be mpossi-

THE RHODE ISLAND AFFAIR.

Our private letters inform US that every effort
is making by the leader of certain party in
New York 10 impress the public with the belief
that the administration is opposed to any and
all change ia the Charter of this State. Not so
fast, good gentleman, not so fast. The Admin
tration has nothing to Go with the projections or
defects of any State Constitution. Heaven for
bid that the Executive should ever possess a
power Of dictatorship in this respect-a power
which would make such constitutions as the Presi-
dent for the time being might wish, TO clothe
himself with supreme sway. We doubt not
but that members of the Executive Department
would gladly see all defects cured the right
Of suffrage extended and the representation
equalized but they can not make their own
wishes override the law Of the Constitution.

WHO'S TO BLAME2

The ultraists are in fair way of playing
the game so celebrated in an Irish town called
Kilkenny, in which two of the feline race were
the combatants The chroniclers tell us that, on
one occasion, the battle waged so fercely that
nothing was left of these examples for modern
chivary but their tails Now, to our thinking,
the course Of two distinguished personages who
lately met in Kentucky, and who are recogniz-
ed as the heads of their respective cliques, will
very likely be used up in similar manner by
the time the fight is concluded. We claim only
the privilege Of spectators, and look upon the
matter with the same nonchalance that the
Western amazon did when her cara sposa and
the bear were engaged in hostile warfare.
The reduction of the Army and Navy By
Congress has set these worthless in an extensive
snar. While the organ here is endeavoring to
justify the conduct Of the Congressman, the
whippers-in, in Philadelphia and New York,
are laundering forth !" ike a roaring lion" at the
impolicy Of such proceedings. Who's to de-
eide when doctors disagreed The President

Gently defeated. This was considerate, as ex-
plantations at home would be rather awkward, if
not unnecessary, in several instances. In at

have been deprived Of bread, need no monitor
ia tell them BY whom the blow was struck.
Fortunately for our country this British mode
of stopping the supplies" does not affect the
Chief Magistrate. He can look calmly on the
Vaccinations of his false friends as well as his
open and avowed enemies, and the People can
easily find out who's to blame when their inter
ests are neglected. We mistake the character
of the American citizen much if the factionists
in Congress do not receive most terrible lash
ing at the next elections. They feel it is COM
ing now, but are unwilling to depart this life
political, without giving the world the balance
OF venom that remains in their composition. 1t
is the last effort of expiring nature which init
mates dissolution.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

The tariff recommended by the President In
his annual Message, has not been objected to
by either party. The People approved it, and
the politicians were afraid to denounce it. Mr.
Clay himself said it was sufficient for every
good purpose The manufacturers acknow.
lodged that the Incidental protection proposed,
and inevitable, in laying duties to raise an am
Pile amount Of revenue, would satisfy them.

with cheerfulness. Then, if such a tariff is pre-
csely what is demanded by the country, why
has it not been passed by Congress We hope

Buenos Ayrean forces in the North, in consequence
of which great number Of assasslnatons, estimated
at 300 or 300 had taken place in the city OF Buenos
Ayres The atrocities comm tied by the Federallsts
against the Unltarians or Central party are almost
incredible On the night Of the llth of April, the
anniversary of General Rosas installation they COM

all they met in the streets Of the Unitarians, and
threw their bodies in cart to be taken out OF the
city.
On the morning Of the 18th, the heads of two per
sons were found hanging in the principal public beef
market, having had blue ribbons drawn through the
nostrlls.
Many of these assassinations were acts OF private
vengeance and il was not till others had been killed

These proceedings have been entirely amongst the
natives themselves The rights and property OF for

The Unitarians were escaping TO Montevdeo and

cigners in the city by secreng themselves IN their
houses. Rosas has issued decree disapprovlng OF
these atrocities.
