The Tariff and the Locos.

Tha, the interests Of the nation demand a Tariff
nc one of any party at present denies The Wings
have shown the depth and sincerity of their con-
vction Of its necessity by passing two bills which
have been vetoed by the President and the Loco
Focos both in and out Of Congress are loud and
brawling in abuse of the Wings for not establish
ing one True, say they, when coupled with the
Land Distribution it must be killed by the Prcsi
dent but if YOU are in earnest in your zeal ior
Tariff give this up and you can have 1t. Now we
deeply regret that many of our friends deem u
best, in view Of the necessity laid upon them to
Weld in this matter and to sacrifice one just and
bene6cent law 10 secure another. But even this Is
more tolerable than to see the Wings abused and
vili6ed day after day-by some OF tier own num-
her TOO. for not doing ,his--when it is demonsra-
bly certain that they could not secure 1arsB

the great measure on which, as we contend
every Tariff, to be permanent and worth having
must rest How stand the friends and the enemies
Of Protection in the House? On the final passage
of Ia. last bill-l16 voted for it, and IL against
it-,here being absent Loco-Foco and Tyler
enemies, and friends--thus, in full House,
making tie on this question OF q Tariff tssth DIS
,r;hn,;on. Now if Distribution be given up, how
sha,l we s,andl The Western Whigs-nearly all
those from Indiana, kentucky and part OF OHIO
will at once be arrayed against i,-tor they would
deem it breach of good faith and a violation OF
the terms on which they consented to support q
Tari8. fkat of course would throw the friends
rs Protection into decided mnority-and how
would that better their condition?
Bu, say the Loco-F ocos-give up the Land Dis
,ribu,ioa and zoe u vote for a Tariff. The Globe
saws that they are willing to so back to the duties
Of 1s39-(which would be much better than no.

brasgart tone, WIN the Wing Hotspurs at WASH

Boston Post, in staring capitals, demands thaf II
bs kept before the people'-that CHARLES j.
IseERsoLL moved TO suspend tho rules OF the
Hou Sc for the introduction OF q bill reviVing the
Tariff of 1885, and that forty of the Leco-tocos
voted in the affirmative. This is done TO create
tine impression that, if the Wings viii truckle to
the Executive, and will only consent tarneiy 90 do
his bidding and repeal the Distribution, the Locos
win then aid them in establishing. an adequate
Tariff. Every man who knows any thing of the
nature Of coFoeosm, knows perfectly that this
IS mere attempt TO cast odium upon the Wings
that the Locos have nor the yemo,es. intention
Of doing any sach thing. Ii there be any, how
ever, so far deceived BY these articles as to pu,
the slightest faith in these hints, We think they
must be undeceiyed by the following letter from
enc of the party who vsssd iu favor of Mr.. Inger.

disposed TO go for an adequate TariH let his own
words show:
