VAN buren, AND THE TARIFF.

We are glad to see (says the Ohio State
JournaD the followers of Mr.. Van Buren, defin-
ing their position, and at the same time remov-
ing all doubt, if any remained, as to his. We
rejoice in the issue that is being made. The
people Of this country never will surrender the
principle Of protection as contended for by Wash
ngton, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, Adams, and
even Jackson himself The experience of the
last twenty or thirty years affords an argument
too strong and triumphant in favor of the princi-
cipIes of such Tariff TO allow it to be lightly
sarihced. The happy and encouraging fruits OF
the present Tariff, although just in its infancy,
are too palpable to be thrown away at the bid.
ding of ignorant and designing experimenters.
We are happy, therefore, to see our opponents
defining their position, that the people may 90
into the campaign with their eyes open, and a
full knowledge Of the disastrous consequences
which must follow the election of mercenary
enemy of American industry and American la
Dor TO the Presidency of the United States.
The New York Evening Post, the leading or
gan of Mr.. Van Buren, in New York city, saws
that the party to which it belongs are pledged
against the Tariff, and that they are SO averse to
the provisions Of the Tariff that not only are its
members bound to sustain Free Trade, but tina,
no man who is not looked upon as an enemy ia
that tyranny can be supported by the Democratic
party as It's candidate for the Presidency. II
thus speaks of its men and candidates:
| IL we and thousands of our readers supper,
Mr.. Van Buren, cordially, it is because we regard
him as pledged to commercial REFORM and &c
the laying Of duties simply for the sake Of reve
nue.. If we believed him friend of the Protec
tive System, we should no longer wish to see
him candidate"

DOINGS AT HARRISBURG.

Things appear to be in glorious confusion al
Harrisburg, in Pennsylvania. The Governor
ID. R. Porter, refuses to send into the Legislature
the reports of his Secretaries, as he contends
there is no printer legally appointed to print them
The Legislature insists that it has elected prin-
ter according to its own law passed at the last
sion. The Governor charges the Legislature
with corrupt bargains in the election of the prin-
ter, and the Legislature raises committee to in
vestigate the subject; in the course Of which in
vestigation it appears that The Governor endeav-
ored to get his own candidate for printer elected,
and, as consequence Of certain votes, it is in
simulated by one of the witnesses that certain
members received Offices from the Governor at
Harrisburg, and from his brother, J. M. Porter,
the Secretary of War, at Washington Truly
Pennsylvania has great blessings!
We presume the people of the Union will not
desire to see Pennsylvania politics extend beyond
the bounds of that State. Wenote one remarkable
fact at Harrisburg, which deserves to be chron-
icled, and that is, that the Pennsylvania Legisla-
ture, after six years of servile subserviency has
at length overcome an Executive veto There
is now some hope Of the moral regeneration Of the
Keystone State.

PUBLIC OPINION.

Public opinion has become an allpowerfnl
agent in controlling the action Of every branch Of
our Government, and any department of it which
attempts to run counter to it, or to set It at de-
fance for any length of time, is made to feel the
weight and power of that element which can be-
come strong and active only where freedom puts
it in motion. This public opinion, however, par
takes Of the character of the great mass of the
people it is, in truth, the combined thoughts Of
tive. Its power is felt by every functionary Of
the Government, from the Chief Magistrate down
I to the humblest Clerk Of Bureau, and by none
more than the highest in Office. Daily do we see
this power .propitated with as much anxiety as
savage nations wont to proptiate the author Of
diately members are liable to be affected by it,
the more assiduous are they in counting its favor
What are called " Bunkum speeches." are but
many propitiatory prayers and offerings to this
all-pervading and eyerywhere-felt power; its
whims and caprices are studied and conformed to
with the utmost anxiety and the most humble
submission; its slightest change is instantly
perceived. and corresponding change in the OBJ
server is the immediate consequence. 1t has
been remarked by foreigners, that in no country
in the world-certainly in no European nation
does this Power bear SO omnipotent sway, nor
exercise SO complete tyranny over the minds Of
men in religion, politics, Dress manners, customs,
and every thing, as in the United States. How
important, then, that this great and controlling
agent should possess other qualities than that Of
power, consonant with those of the Great Au-
thor Of good that it should be intelligent, slow
to anger, calm, not hasty in judgment, steady,
uniform that Il should despse the hypocrite, and
scorn those who would propitiate it with lip-ser-
vice. Ifenlightened, it can and will exert sal
utary and conservative influence upon public men
and public bodies, making them, in truth, what
they should be; if unenlightened, rash and tickle,
its conservative effect will be lost, and we shall
continue to witness what we have witnessed for
the last fifteen years, both in the public councils,
and in the community-outbreaks of violence,
and Total disregard Of order, courtesy, deco
rum, and good manners, without which public
bodies and communities sink to brutal and saw
age level.
