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 infammatory,
we need not inform any one--and knowing that
it is so, we have felt anxious that It's 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 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
of those on whom it is intended to operate. Ii
is not wise TO be always too !" fond of the right
to pursue the expedent'-both should be consi-
dered together and be made, as far as possible, to
harmonic on the momentous question of the
Tariff particularly, in the settlement Of which
an attempt must be made to concate, as far as
possible, conflicting interests and warning pas
sions. We conceive that a pertinacious adhe-
renee TO theory OF abstract correctness OF po-
Icy would he injudicious 1t must receive the
notifications which experience teaches to be
requisite, that it may be brought into successful
practical operation. Experience must fit the
theories of politics for practice, as it does those
Of mechanics.
We began this article not with the intention
Of penning an essay on the Tariff, but of again
setting ourselves right with those who ignorant
lv or Intentionally misrepresent us. We hat
hoped that, after the distinct exposition of oul
principles on this question, we might escape
further misrepresentation. Sometimes our doc
trines are stated enormously, at others we arr
told that they are not Republican. Two o
three days since we gave, in language, WI
trust, too explicit to be misunderstood or dis
torted, our opinions on Protective Tariff

FOR THE MADISONIAN
On the first ballot, MIR. Mangum received twenty
two votes, twenty-three being necessary to choice
The remainder Of the votes was divided among
Messrs. King, Bayard, SEWER Kerr, Tallmadge,
Clayton, and blank on the second ballot blank re-
ceived no vote; and is it not highly probable that
Mr.. Mangum, finding that he could muster but TWEEN
tytwo votes threw aside his modesty and voted for
himselfi Was Mr.. Mangum thus elected by Mr..
Mangum?
Now, if there is an inch of calumny in this, how
many miles of just such calumny has been ut
tered against the President, in the various ultra
Wing papers? Let Sam Johnsing ans wer.
And yet the nteligencer, the next day, pub
fishes an article in reply. with this barefaced
assertion:
{" In the Madisonian of this morning it is as serted
that in the election yesterday for President pro tenn
pore of the Senate, Mr.. Mangum voted for himself"

Some of the shameless and INSCRIPTIONS
scribblers are charging us with having calum-
mated Mr.. Mangum, or rather intimating that
Mr.. Robert Tyler is the author of assertions re-
specting the gentleman for whose sake the North
State was complimented, as the Intelligencer
says. 1t is unnecessary for US to say they are
all false. But let US prone them to be so. The
following communication, written by gentle
man in the gallery, and not by Mr.. Tyler, is

The Washington Correspondent of the Bal
timore Sun, abiding to his excellency Mr.. Bo-
disco, says:
During the residence Of this gentleman in this Dis
nict he has sustained an irreproachabe and exem-
plary characteristics identified himself almost all
occasions with the citizens of Georgetown es ecialy
and of the District generally. His polite and anna
bic department, unostenatious benevolence, hberaty
and uniform Kindness the humbest individuals, has
had the effect to endcarhim to all classes of our cti-
zens.
The peculiar circumstances under which he be-
came connected with of our highly priced daugh-
tiers of Columbia excited unusual degree of interest
and his subsequent department has been strictly scru
TIED The result has 'ended TO awaken additional
ard and admiration in the breasts of our whole
nitv, and the worthy fami to which he has become
onocctcd has just for high qualification in the
choice of the beautiful young lady in selecting an
