Passage of the TnriG RiII.

Bv referring to our Congress iona report, oui
readers will see that the Tariff bill, sustaining the
Land Distribution, passed the Senate on Friday

came from the House. 1t was signed by the ofi-
GERS Of both Houses, and sent to the President on
Saturday, so that his action thereon may be conf
denty expected to transpire in the course OF this
week The nature of that action, however, may
be pretty accurately inferred from recent demon
stratons and especially from the leading artcle in
Saturdays Madisonian, which is as follows:
