A HARD HIT.-During the discussion.
In the Senate, of the tariff bill, lnow the law
ofthe land,) Mr.. Calhoun indulged in u ve-
ry fierce and harsh denuncia,ion of the bill,
calling tia measure of oppression, of abom-
nations, of plumber, and all sorts OF odious
names And. 10 illustrate and show the e
normity of the bill, he said, just take the du-
tg on rolled iron on which the farmer will
be Obliged to pay S25 per ton
Mr.. Buchanan, of Pennsylvania. answer
ed Mr. Calhoun, and said the duty on rolled
iron is not as high in this bill as it was un-
der the bill cf 1929. which imposed a duty
of $50 per ton The duty on rolled iron ls
not as high in this bill as the tariff of 1916.
which MIR. Calhoun advocated and voted for
This bill only imposes a duty of S25 per
ton on rolled iron, and Mr.. Calhoun's tariff
bill of 1916, which made him so popular
in Pennsylvania, imposed duty of $50 per
ton on rolled iron; that was g. higher in the
ton than this bill, which was now 50 much
denounced by MIR Calhoun.

0+yOn last Tuesday night, mule was
stolen from the stable Of Mr.. J.D. VIII,
lIams, of this neigh5orhood. He immedi.
ately suspected a Williams. who had
been lettering about here for some DAYS
past, whom he pursued aud opprehended,
with the mule in Madison County. lie
was brought back aud taken before Ma.
gistrate, who committed him to ail ia
stand his trial at he next term OF The CIR
cult Court.
This loyer Of mule flesh, is no "kith Of
kin" TO his appreheuder, who is one of our
most worthy citizen.
We did not hear the evidence adduceC
before tho Justice, and if lad should no
publish it. We condemn the practice o
some of orr papers of publishing the evi
dence before the final trial, as well in petit,
as great criminal cases. Il is shameful

The American people ore honest; love

Farther, when they found The veto, or
the Zone man powern as demagogues
style it, stood in the way Of the passage
of some Of their dangerous measures, they
deliberately set nbort striking 1t out Of the
constitution. A wiser or more patriotic
body than that which framed the Consti-
tu,iun, never assembled. They were
profoundly learned--lhe various forms aud
schemes of government, that had, or then
existed, were fam liar 10 them-they had
no private ends to grailiy-they were
rearing a fabric Which they fondly hoped
would las, through all time; they thought
the veto was necessary the work OF such
men should not be lightly oyerihrown,-
Under the veto power our country has
been steadily advancing onward. The
veto is a shield to the smaller .Saies-it
prevents hasty ard inconsderate egsla-
uon- guards the Constitution and defends
the executive from the encroacbment o.
the other branches government. Shall
it be abolished, merely to crafty the am
bi,ion of Henry Clay. The Senate may
next thwart some of his fAvorl,e meqsuret
He may then mpdostIy ask its destruc'
ton. But the people are attached to tEt
Constitution, and will never suffer the ak,
of the destroyer to mar its beautiful apc
admirable proportions.
The above are some of the reasons lha
have led to the defeat of the wing party.

0J5IEce the late elections, particular
ly ONO, the faces of oaa Wing friends
seem considerably elongated; indeed, they
[lcel have cause for dependency; for the
writing is on the walI-lhe doom Of their
party is sealed. We have bowels of com,
passion, and though we could not rejoice
with them in their prosperity, we may be
excused for feeling liule sympathy for
them in their adversely. Now indeed,
Sis the winter of discomfort"
The overthrow Of this party is, howev.
er, not astonishing. 1t was composed of
different and conflicting parties; i'm the
North 1t rallied under one banner--tu the
South under another-in one place in IA
vor OF National Bank, in another oppos-
ed TO it. 1t had no common principles
no common platform upon which to stand.
How then, could i, be expected to remain
united2 As well pight it have been thou
that water and oil would commngle.
Again its leaders denounced prescription
IN the mostloud and bitter language, No
sooner were they in power than they were
guilty OF the most unsparing prescription.
1t Is SAID, the single month of General
Harrlson'S administration, witnessed more
removals from Office, than the whole of the
preceding administration. Men who had
grown IN the public service, and who had
discharged their duty with singular integ.
rlty and fidelity were shamelully thrust
from office, for mere opinions sake. Such
gIarIng consistency was marked by the
people and had, no doubt, its due influence
IN the recent elections.
The leaders of this party, during The
canvass were afraid to make the direct
issue before the people, of Bank or no
Bank. 1t Is true, it was squinted at, in
some dark corners; but boldly denied 10
other places. The address of the Wbir
convention of Virginia, defended General
Harrison against the charge of leaning to
a bank. Mr.. Ewing, the late Secrerar,
OF the Treasury, was indignant before the
election, at being even thought to have al
luded TO the question. Yet the extra
session had hardly opened before bill
was introduced TO charter Bank. with
great and most alarming powers; and il
was boldly said that the people, by elect
ing General Harrison, had decided il ia.
