BY the enormous expenses Of the whoI,
operation.
"We now come 10 the insolvent states
These declare -some Of lbsm-that lhey
sic unable to pay their debts--others iha
they viii not pay them, being illegally
contracted. We may trace lhe operation
BY taking one State, say Illinois; theil
debt is Sl7,Gi3.000, bearing an interest
Of $932, ,43O; Under the distribution bill
his Stale would receive So 900 per an

illinois will get S2,00O,000 bearing a
charge Of 100000 per snnum. United
States six per cent stocks are now SELL
ing at paT--lt the same relative value
the four per cent would be worth 66a per
cent. For this she could retrieve $6,..
100000 other own stock. She would
then be taxed $50 900 per annum above
the proceeds Of the lands, and have re-
naming 81 1000, 600 ofhe, own dishonor-
ed debt. Instead Of being taxed the
$S0,0G0 by her own state, the people
would have the tax gatherers ftEe Fed
eral Government upoG them"
But we find right views in an unexpect-
ed quarter. The Rochester Democrat,
an active "Whig" paper, takes ground
distinctly and poiniedIy against assump
ton, and it presents the objections 10 the
scheme forcibly and clearly
"To our mind, but single argument
is necessary TO show the absurdity Of the
some Of the states have
been prudent and borrowed no money
or no more than they can readily pay,
while Others have. been extrayagant and
borrowed a great deal more than they
should have borrowed, or than they can
ever pay. II the general government
should assume the debts Of all the states
the prodigahty Of the prodcal would have
to he borne by the prudent, aud those
who had no agency in contracting the
debts would have TO ray them This in
ordinary life, we would declare unjuSt.-
Il would be so here. II Is maxim in
morals that every individual will he pub
shed for his individual transgresSions.
II should be The maxim of fuance, that
every individual must abide the conse-
lnencesO Of his own folly, and not heap
the mischief upon his neigbOr. This
10 which we object would
mike Connecticut, Vermont and Rhode
Island share the Indebtedness of Michi
gan, Indiana and Illinois. No one would
say that this would be right, because eve
sry one knows that the states first named
had ho ageoey whatever in contracting
lhe debts Of the latter"
We suspect that, aside from any ques.
ion ofpolicy Or politics, this great argu
nent Of truth and Justice will be found
nvulherable. No party can stand on the
ground of assumption; nor wiIEany party
'enture TO rally under it at The p0! or in

" PiOus Fraud 20

A third party paper, called "Thc Peoples Ad-
vocate'-and purporling TO he published in this
village by A. ST. Clair, publishing agents week
ly circulated in various sections Of the State Now
be it known, that this paper is printed, edited, and
published-not in Montpelier, but in Concord, NJ
Fl. We care very little whether the politicians of
New Hampshire do or do not NEEDLE with the pol
itics of Vermont, though we do really think that
the Green Mounisin Boys are old enough to 60
alone and arrange their own affairs: if foreigners
will interfere, however lei it be done honestly and
openly, not under the cover Of fraud like this.
By the way il, towns in this vicinity, the Advo-
cate is sent TO the regular subscribers OF The Voice
of Freedom, without orders. We cannot suspect
the Voice OF playing n double game, and therefore
ask that paper TO say, whether n copy of its sub
scription list has been stolen by the Advocate?

Direct Taxation +!

Mr.. Hdiker opened tho new ball by proposing
DIRECT TAXATION in one Of its most nne-
quail unjust, and therefore most odous forms
the taxation OF one kind ofproperty to the exclu-
sion of all other kinds He proposed thus:
".dnd be ii further enacted That from and after
the passage of this act, there shall be collected by
the marshais in the several districts OF the United
States, under such regulation as shall he prescr-
bed by the Secretary of the Treasury, All annual
tax Of 20 per cent. ad valorem on all gold and sill
yer toare, and in all cases where the marshals shall
not themselves collect this duty they are author
ized 10 employ tho assessor, collector sheriff, or
coroner, in each Of the same counties or parishes
OF the several States TO aid them in collecting said
tax and a compensation of one per cent shall be
allowed for the actual amount OF tax collected and
paid over under the provisions Of this act'
In advocating this amendment, Walker stated
that the whole amount of gold and silver ware in
the country exceeded 100000, 900 in value. On
this. he proposed to levy tax Of 20 per cent. ad
valorem, and this tex TO be paid, annually, on the
whole value-so that in five years the tares paid
upon this species Of property would equal the
value of the property itself! Besides this, tho
redoubtabe Mr.. Walker had all along denounced
tho Bill, because it provided too much revenue
for the Government--andy yet, in this sage amend
ment of his, no proposed, by a single stroke Of
his pen, to insert a provision in the Bill, which,
accordipgto his own showing would increase

Tariff Bill Passed.

The Wings in both Houses hayo gone through
tho contest like men at the risk of lnisrepresen-
tation and abuse, they have put down oil the fac
tous and dishonest attempts Of locofocosm to de.
feat the bill by northumberland passed it precise
ly as it passed the House. According to Calhoun
and Woodbury., this bill is better than the protec-
tive Tariff of 1923. We say that il is good BILL
While in some of ito details 4, is liable 10 oboc-
ton in one section aud another, yet as whoie il is
cool, and Of the highest importance to the whole
country. Vermont would better like it, it the 20
per cent. duty on tea and coffee and the 8 cents on
salt were omitted-yet, while il gives us than
40 on wool, 40 on manufactures OF wool, cotton,
leather, shoes, sc. &C., and ample protection on
butter, cheese, beet pork, &c. &C., clearly is the
bill excellent for Vermont. 1t will take something
from MS for duties on articles which we do not
prodncs-stl it restores the sum four fold by Tho
protection of what we do produce. SO is ii with
all Tariffs: that in 1928, even imposed more than
double tho duties Of this bill on tea aud coffee
and more on salt: but who denies that that act
was the very best for Vermont? We repent, thon,
that the Wings have pissed good Tariff; and
let the responsibility of its defeat if defeated it is
rest upon those who defeat it.

Why is it so 4?

90 How happens i, that the locofoco leaders
in New York, Massachusetts, New Hampshire g.
Vermont, unanimously and voluntarily avowed
themselves against Protection in l54l For this
reason (: TO form an opposition to the admin
stralion just then commenced, which they be-
ieved would be for Protection. They looked IN
the South for co operation, and expected thus TO
prevent the Wings from passing Tariff. When
this could he accomplished, and the people had
become disaffecied and dspirsd by the loss of q
Tariff, the locoloco leaders then Intended to play
over the same deceptive game which they success
fully played when jackson was elected. At the
North they would promise " n iudicious Tariff
at the South Free Trade" Such was their pol
icy, aud such it is now. Nolhing do they want
so much as TO defeat the Wings in their efforts to
get good Tariff For this reason they sustain
King Tyler, and vote against the bills. Their
very amendments in the Senate were solely inten-
ded 10 kill the bill if successful If not, TO dssat.
lsiy the people. From the beginning to the end,
1t is deep and wicked plot, in the execution OF
which they lrife with the people, keep the whole
nation in a state Of alarm, and paralyze every
branch Of Domestic Industry.

The humbuggers on
Stills.

Never, probably, did the United States Senate
present more ridiculous scenes than those enacted
on the I'd, 81, 9TH and 9Th of August. The loco.
foco leaders mounted their stilts and unniligated
demagogisIn had full sway to wasto the time of
that session which, according the last Patriot is
now on its eighth month at $4,000 per day. As
the rules of the Senate permitted amendments at
that stage Of the tariff bill aud also unlimited de-
bato the Wings could not prevent this waste both
Of time and money they voted down the dema-
goguos, as last as they were permitted TO vote
and this was all the Wings could do. OF course
the tariff bill WINS the theme. The whole subject
had been fully debated and considered: the loco.
focos had determined to vote against the BILL hav-
ing in their speeches denounced it os giving TOO
MUCH PROTECTION while the Wings had
determined to pass the bill without any amend
ment TO this they were impelled, FIRST because
If amended even in n single particular, il must go
back TO the House, occasion n great loss of lime,
and perhaps be defeated Ivy trick or Otherwise I;
and second, because as n whole, they considered
it as good bill as could he carried. This deter
minaon was well known by the locofocos, md
hence they resolved TO take advantage of it for
two purposes: TO DEFEAT THE Bull, if
possible, and nj amy rate to make party capital by
placing the Wings in a false position Such were
The designs-then came the means, in the shape Of
clap-trap amendments which they knew the
Wings must defeat, or endanger the bill by send
ing it again 10 the House. If those amendments
were carried then the bill must 60 back to the
House for new fight; if rejected, then would the
locofoco presses at orce raise the hue and cry that
The Hhigs were nguns, protection when i'll point
Of fact the Wings are the truo friends OF proiec-
lion, and the oher party entirely against it. Such
was the dishonest and disgruceful game, now let
the people see how it was played. We 90 very
fully into the subject, as already do we find that
the locofoco leaders in Vermont have got the bait,
and are endcavoring with it TO hook the people.

Coarse Wool.

Then came Mr.. Benton, with motion TO limit
the per cent duty on coarse wool to tina, I'M
der 5 cents, instead Of z per pound.
This is not ofthe lenst possible use to the wool
grower, as it is confined TO wool, and does
not add one Whit 10 the protection against the fine
wool, which has been imported duty free under
the cent. clause of the existing locoloco law.-
But it would do TO make q noise about. So Mr.
Benton brings in his motion, and the most ultra
enemies Of all Tariffs vote for il, mud the Wings
against il. Yens Is. (there are 20 ocos, by the
way nays 26, Wings, we presume.
Next Mr.. Preston IA Wing, but n Nullifer,)
moves TO change the duty from 5 to 20 per cent.
on course wool under seven cents The ayes were
II, principally locos noes 25 principally Wings.
Mr.. Preston then said, that if this amendment had
been adopted he should nave moved to REDUCE
THE DUTY ON ALL OTHER WooL TO 20 per cent.
but as the other had been jected he should not
make the motion. So, then, The first motion was
but an entering wedge TO cut down ALL wool TO
20 per cent! Yet will the ocos abuse the Wings
for rejecting 1t.
The bill says that on wool manufactured, tho
value whereof, at the Inst port or place from
whence exported" &c. Mr.. Benton moved to
strike out the words at the last port or place
from whence exported apparently this looks
like substituting home valuation for the foreign
but in truth it did no such thing. Had these
words been erased, iciihoH substituting home raj
ualon, as Mr. Benton took care not 10 do, the val
uaton would have been left precisely as il is now
Ii WAS another motion TO be talked about only and
was rejected like it's predecessors.
Now mark this thing not one of these men
proposed to increase the duties on tcool which COM
peies ,cith ours all their efforts were aimed at
coarse wool, mol including the grades OF foreign
wool which, under the name OF 8 cent wool, are
now imported duty free by cE5-iheir DION act Of
1888. To complete the evidence Of their hypoc-
risy, we have only to add that they VOTED A.
GAlNST THE PASSAGE OF THE BILL,
which does give over 40 per cent protection to tho
wool-grower BY thus voting, they did whit they
could to keep wool 10 the existing duties, viz all
under cents FREE, and only Copper cent on the
rlsf

''sTH MONTH OF THE SESSION.
$4,000 PER DAY.''

Thanks to the Patriot for the hint. Three days
did the ocos waste on the Tariff BILL after know
ing that the Wings would not he driven to suffer
a single amendment. Put it on TO the rascals,
Jerry! At the opening of the session the Wings
proposed 10 adopt the one hour rule, which would
have saved half the time OF Congress and great
er per cent. in reputation. But the Iocos, the
Guard md lew tinid Wings, voted it down.
Put il on 10 the rogues-hard.
AS another mode of saving time, after bills have
been sufficiently debated, the higs have been
forced to stop debate by fixing specified time Tor
action yet, ap general rule, the locoocos have
uniformly resisted il. Go it, Jerry lash the ras-
calls TO your hearts content We WON'T interfere,
'pOn honor.

oh! OH!

"Ihe record of the Convention says the resolu-
tons were separately discussed by four indyidu-
ais, and from this The Wa.chman inters that Mr.,
Barber discussed this particular resolution"

all the attributes of the old = rit of Iniguity.-
Cunning is lacking. Rather Than bubble in this
style, the Devil would have put on brazen front
and swear the whole record forgery. The Age
admits the record then let the reader take The
record and Judge for himself
"The resolutions were separately and ably dis.
cussed by Messrs. Dillingham;, Barber, Spalding,
| Farr and others, aud unanimously adopted"
Again, says the Age:
awe happen to know more about this matter
than the Wdtchmdn. Mr.. Barber was called out
about The middle of the series of resolutions He
said he had "nothipg particular to say about the
resolution under discussion"-( whatever il was)
and proceeded 10 make general political speech.
He did not speak upon any p1rticulur resolution ;
aud further than this we happen TO know and can
prove, that he opposed The Industry resolution pri
pately and publicly The gentlemen who compos-
ed the committee on Resolutions may remember
this and what Mr.. b. said when his opinion was
asked"

Wines.

The next exhibition which wo have is on the
subject of French toines. Mr.. Rves (anti-protec-
live Whg) moved to STRIKE OUT THE DU-
TY on this article of luxury. Ayes-l2 locolo-
cos and Southern Wings; Noes, 25 Wings and
locoioco Mark that: while they would admit
the rich mans wine duty free, you will find them
anon voting Tor heavy tax on poor woman 3
gold beads!
Succeeding these were motions to admit tea and
coffee duty iree-salt dto and to reduce the du-
ty on salt-and host ofo.her amendments which
the reporters have not described; all which were
rejected the locos generally voting for them, and
the Wings porssling steadily in voting da,ss rll
Of them, on the grounds that they were iniea4ed
merely to embarrass the bill and deceive the poo
pie.
BY this time the rampant locoiocos lost all rom
troll over themselves, and unwtingly exposed
their real character, as enemies, not only of PRO
TECTlON but even Of raising revenue by Tar
