THE BOsToN CULTIVATION. In our last

speak, as foliows:-

ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY SET
SPEECHES IN CONGRESS,
UPON THE TARIFF.


This is the last number of The Tribune
which will reach many of our friends in
Vermont prior to their approaching Election,
and we claim the privilege Of saying few
words to them regarding the imPudently
false claim set up by the Loco Focos among
them that their party is the party Of Protec'
lion, and that the Wings are at heart its
opponents
The monstrous audacity of this falsehood
is such that we hardly knew how to treat it
with patience. and yet we will calmly state
few facts, as follows:
There have been about one hundred and
fifty set Speeches made in Congress on the
Tariff question at this Session: about one
half on each side. OF these one half have
been by Wings, in favor of Protection with
scarce an exception; the other half by Lo
co.Focos, nearly every one scouting the
idea of any Protection whatever They
did not object to the Land Distribution mer-
ely or mainly they objected to Protection
as folly or friend. Frecmen Of Vermont!
we pledge you our faith that the division
by party lines has been almost without a
shade of exception. five could make room,
we would fortify these positions beyond the
possibility of cavil by extracts, not merely
from the Speeches of Southern LocoFocos,
but from those of Clifford of Maine, Ather-
'on and Burke of Now Hampshire, Roose-
welt, McKeon and Wood of New York,
Sny der, Beeson and Brown o. Penn, Weller
of Ohio. Kennedy of Indiana, Reynolds of
Illinois, &c. &c. Every one of them de-
clares that Protection is an absurdity, and
that the next Loco Foco Congress will de-
molish it. In the same way talk the Globe,
the Richmond Enquirer, and all the Loco
Foco and Tyler papers of this City. inclu-
ding the pretended neutrals. So in Gin
cinnati, Louisville, Baltimore, New Orleans,
&c. &c.

Although in its passage it has been crippled
in some Of its provisions by tho rude as

its best features, it still retains exceilencies
enough to render it an almost unspeakable
benefit to the country. The pursuits of do

SINGULAR IyDfCTMENT.-CHARGE AGAINST THE
REcoRpER.-The talk of the city for some DAYS has
been the extraordinary indictment found against
the Rev Mr.. Verren, an Epscopalian clergyman
on the oaths of two Frenchmen, who were some
time since convicted and sent to the pententary
for these offences. One of these men had served
out his time-the other had not But what renders
this extraordinary affair still more SO, is the as
founding fact that il was meant only as a mode OF
reaching Mr. Whiting in some way or another.
In connection with this affair we find charge
made In the journal of Commerce" of Yesterday,
alleging that Recorder Tslmadge procured the pre-
sence OF one of the so-called witnesses from Black
wells Island, and that the iindictment was got up
by his influence and under his direction. We are
authorised to pronounce this assertion utterly false
Recorder Talmadge knew nothing of this exiraor
binary affair until it was perpetrated Neither is the
Recorder the man of such principles or such feel
ings as would lead him to tromple and destroy
quiet clergyman merely TO make stepping stone to
reach political opponent We cannot tell who are
the authors Of this most extraordinary Indictment
but it looks so much like the handywork of those
nalevolent beings that got up an indictment against
us for jen d'espr,t, that shoad not be surprised
if the paternity were one and the same
This affair is so novel--so extraordinary-so Ut,
terly mean and malignant, that we shall set to work
and find out the originaors and bring them to the
light of day. Can any one give US list OF the
