CLAY AND THE TARIFF.

We wonder if the wings are not as much in the
daIk to Mr. Clay's opinions as they were to Capt
Tylers. They advocate his claims warmly and e.
ven with enthusiasm, yet if any reliance can be
placed upon what he says himself he is opposed 10
one Of their cardinal measures. As explanatory Of
his 1'aiil opinions we give the following extract
from his speech on the Treasury Notes:
"lt was, scandalous that this government, should
hare gone on for years past. and was going on now
by the expenditure of more than was received
Taxation he knew, and had before said, was the
remedy for this Garry out then, the spirit of the
compromise act. Look TO revenue alone for the
support Of Government. DO not raise the question
of protection, which had hoped had been put to
res. There is no necessity for protection.
