u The opponents of the Punishment of Death
are called to assemble in public meeting at
O'Clock this evening at the Apollo Saloon, to con.
slider the propriety of organizing Society, disse-
minatng information by Tracts memorializing
the Legislature, &c. This is not a meeting for
discussion or controversy those who dissent from
its objects are not invited unless SPECTATORS
But those among our citizens who deeply feel
that the taking of human life for crime is demo,
ralizing and wrong-that it often subjects the IN
nocent irrctrieyably to the punishment of the
worst OF criminals-that it cherishes In the popu-
lar mind false ideas of the nature and purpose OF
D punishment, and incites men to wreak vengeance
on those who (they think have injured them
-thatit is every way brutalizing, barbarous,
and un-C hrstian--will we trust be promptly and
generally at the meeting tonight. Specific pro-
positions will be submitted for their consideration.
{See cal)
*ss Seats will be reserved for Ladies, and it IS
earnestly desired that those opposed to the chok-
ing to death of human beings will be present.

Here It will be seen that, while the Govern.
ment receives S4,5l more duty on this cask of
kitchen hardware than under the old Tariff, the
American consumer obtains it three dollars
cheaper than the cheapest it was sold before the
present Tariff was imposed The British manu-
facturer tc retain his hold on our market, has
put down the price from 524 to 60 per cent-in
other words, from $46,O7 to $38,6S for the cask;
SO that the cask is actually made over seven dol
lars cheaper than before, of which part goes to
our Government and the rest to the American
consumer. Shall we take off this duty? For
whose benefit
But let us explain. What the Foreign houses
who got up this memorial really want is ad "a
loren duty instead of the specific so much a
pound charged whenever practicable by the
present Tariff. That so much a pound is a
choker, which cannot be maneuvred, and
against which Custom House oaths are Of little
avail But 90 back to an a9 palorem duty
matter at what rate--and these Foreign gentle
men can import ,oares !o,oer than any american
house possibly can do It. The manner is this !:
A British house which manufactures goods can
ALWAYS swear their cost honestly below what any
body here can buy them in England, and thus,
if the duty be ad ralorsm, introduce them here
at lower duty. For instance, the Liverpool
market price of a cask of screws is $500, and
an American merchant buys them and pays duty
on that amount--say at 25 per cent, SIS. But
a British manufacturer, with an agency or
branch house here, can conscientiously swear
that like cask of Screws cost it but $3.50, on
which the duty is $65, or $40 less than the
American house pays. This is the way that
our American Silk and Woolen Goods Importers
have gone down, row after row, until of a hundred
American importing houses in business ten years
ago, you shall not find FIVE standing now-the
Foreign houses having swallowed all. Now,
under the fostering justice OF Specific Duties, the
American side of the house is coming up again !;
but let the Tariff be modified as its adversaries
propose, and all will 60 back to the days of Biz
mingham and Yorkshire ascendancy again Shall
we let 1t go?

,Millerism DisaVOWed.

On Thursday evening, in the Millerite
Church, corner of Chrystie and Delaney
street, Mr. Storrs publicly recanted his
egregious folly and madness in the mat
ter ofthe second advent. He said, what
indeed others besides his congregation
had already found out, that he was de-
cieved as to tue day of the second advent
He said he had been led away by excite
ment and deceived by mesmoism and
now most penitently acknowledged his
manifold sins and wickedness. He now
exhorts them to stick to work. &c.
Hines next took the stand in thu con
fessional, and forgetting, we presume,
that he had been both the deceived and
the deceiver, rated the people pretty harsh
ly for their Infatuation, and urged them
all to go home and to work, and stepped
down from The rostrum. Storrs has also
acknowledged his error in the Midnight
Cry, but we do not remember seeing any
thing about meSmerism! Hines says
this as an error.
This is tolerably cool. Confession is
easy, but how is restitution to be made
Perhaps the leaders think they have fur
nished as much excitement as could be
expected at the price.

&There were something like 10 de-
luded men and women in hou,e in
Westminster, which they call the ARK,

We might recount hundred instances o
suicide, loss of reason, and waste of prop
erty, through the fanaticism or something
else Of these leaders.
0rMr Hines complains of being Sian
dered of accusation of dishonesty, sc.
and desires to be allowed to ''go on" il
peace. He ought to ego on SO as to d.
less mischief in the result hereafter.

sWINDLED PENNSYLVANIA.

4 very small majority of the Voters of
Pennsylvania have been induced to vote for
James X. Polk on the solemn assurance OF
the I.oco-Foco leaders that Polk is more ola
Tariff man Than Clay. At the very time
these men are thus duped, South Carolina
goes unanimously for Polk on the ground of
his utter aud uniform hostility to any Protec-
tive Tariff whatever! There never was a
bIacker fraud than that by which PennsyI-
vania has been seduced from her own side to
cast her vote for the deadly enemies of her
Industry and her Prosperity. Freemen of
Ncw-York they hope SO to swindle you
But how can theyl The Locofocos here are
in good part detected if not declared adver-
saries Of the Protective Policy.-The skulk

Of the Tariff is betrayed in all their move

The Prospects before us.

Il appears that we have drawn wrong con-
clusious from certain facts; and have been
disappointed IN the result of Pennsylvania and
= Y. elections which have gone for Polk and
Dallas by from 2 to 5000 majority each. We
did suppose that the Tariff men OF those
States could not be induced to cast their votes
Cor freetrade man, but we are mistaken.
They have done so,and we must all abide the
consequences. The Loco gain in N. Y. is
about 10000, since 1910, being less than 500
gain to each member Of Congress. There is
aprospect of Virginia going for Henry Clay,
which viii render his election almost sure, but
should that fail there are States enough TO
elect Mr.. Clay that voted for Gen. Harrison
III 1910, unless those States give larger Loco
gain to each Congressional District than have
been gained in Pennsylvania or New York.
Michigan gave Harrison 1,8O2 majority,
hiissi, ,ippi 2.523, Georgia $3.50, Indiana
1858, Tennessee I2,I02, Louisiana $3.50,
North Caro!ula l2,5gl. Delaware 1903, ma
iorilics !lr Harrlson. These with the States
which have already elected Care conceded to
Gay viii elect him, without even Virginia
rs they will give IA votes six more than nee
essary fora choice.
Now ifany EVhio stays from the polls and
suffers Vermont to 90 for Polk and by such
iase neglect Poia should be elected. could he
ever Look an honest aud patriotic Wing in the
face without blush orshamc.
