VETO ON THE TAIFF.
Friends of protection, look at the follow
idg extract from a correspondent al Washing
ton to the cdeInr Of the Burlington Free
Press.
As understand ar effort has been made
il yonr State IL represent the Wings in Con
eress as bang hostile to the wool growers,
and to represent them as wishing To build up
the manufacturers al the expense of the far
mers; think it important that the facts in
the case should be fairly presented to your
readers. | will therefore state, for their infor-
nation, and | wish you TO call their pqrticW-
lar attention toit that; when the article of
wool was under consideration; in committee
of the whole; James L. Roosevelt; of New
York city; and Care johnson, of Tennessee,
two of the most prominent Loco Focos i'll the
House, each submitted motion 10 reduce the
duty on wool to a much lower rate than was
originally fixed in the Billiard that hcy
tcere both sustained by the great mass of the
Loco Foco members. The Wigs, however,
united against them, and voted down their
propositions. The Vermont Delegation
went before the Committee of Ways and
Means, and prevailed upon them through
their chairman, Mr.. Fillmore, 10 submit pro-
position TO raise the duty on this article 10 the
rate al which it now stands in the Bill. This
proposition was strongly opposed by the Loco
Foco members, but il was supported and tar
ried by the Wings. Two other Loco Foco
members, besides Messrs. Johnson and Rose
belt, also prepared amendments TO reduce the
The duty on wool TO very low rate and they
were sustained by tEier political friends.
Tie Wings, however, succeeded in defeating
them. The vote on the fiual passage of the
Bill was taken in he Honse at late hour,nn
