columns OF which paper, we have copied synop-

The introduction of this bill is the first piece oil
real business in legislation which has been trans
acted by Congress since the opening of the session.
We trust, therefore, that the members of that ho-
norabe body will for one month, lay aside all
their vulgarily, all their folly, all their person.
aity, all their silly speechfying for Buncombe,
and proceed to action at once.
So far as we can see by the items before us, this
bill is framed on the same principles of compro-
mise which characterized the Clay tariff of 1882,
and which ought never to have been altered, as
was done by the last Congress. Perhaps the plan
now proposed is more favorable by per cent to
the manufacturing and agricultural interests than
the last nstalment of that law was-but we are
persuaded that these advantages to the manufac-
turers will be cheerfully acqulesced IN by the mer-
camille interests, if Congress proceed at once to
pass the bill into law, and to make it permanent
All partes-all interests want this "vexed ques-
tom settled-and we are satisfied that a better
arrangement could not be adopted than to take
this new proposition and make it the law of the
land.
Nor is there much use for long discussions on
this topic. The whole country understands it at
glance. II has been debated for the last thirty
years, in every shape and form. Nothing can
prevent a happy settlement now, but the tricks
and schemes OF " scurvy politicians" Let the
whole nation rise up as one man, and demand the
passage of this bill as the best mode to end the
agltation-to give repose to trade-to aid the pre-
sent favorable revival of business-and forever TO
separate politics from mercantile affairs. Come
let great public meeting be called in New York
land like meetings every where throughout the
land.
ASTOUNDING PoLlTICAL MovEMENT-ORGANIZA-
TON OF THE TYLER PARTY AT LAsT.-JOhn Jones
(not the button maker) announces to the universe,
through the g Madsonian,' that at last, he has
organized the "Tyer democracy" with its head,
or centre in Washington, and its tail or extremtles
In Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia. A central
committee has been established-an address
issued privately TO their friends, and the movement
begun in Ohio, and protracted in Pennsylvania to
hold Convention in Baltimore on the same day
tthe 9th Of May,) on which the Van Buren, de-
ypocracy hold theirs, is to be carried out to the
utmost limits of fact fancy-philosophy or fun
But while John Jones mot the button maker)
sings cheerily of these suspicious omens to the
cause, he lanents, in the agony OF jeremiah I'M
prsoned in the gourd, the backsiiding of the Tyler
office-holders in New York-compla.ns of their
treachery-and threatens unutterable pains to the
recreants in this latitude.
Just so, as Peter Gilpin says. John Jones has at
length discovered that the Office holders of New
York are deceiving and duping their chief Just so

in this matter connected with New York, there is

All the attempts made to organise Tyler party
here, have been upset by the policy and intrgues
of these distinguished officials They have es-

Union, and others-to throw dirt in Captain Ty-
lers eyes more efectually, while, all the time,
they have been hand and glove secretly with the
bterest OF the Wall street papers against the self
same Mr.. Tyler.
These are facts-but 1t seems that John Jones
has only just now discovered how the wind blows
He will also discover that, in New York, in conse-
quence of the same influences, delegates to the new
Tyler Baltimore Convention, on the 9th of May
cannot be elected here, and will not be sent from
New York The effect of such convention, with
delegates from every State, might be very power
ful on the action of the first called convention in
the same pace-but the influence of Mr.. Tyler's
office holders here is potent, that none will ever
be attempted or sent from New York or New
England. Mark that, John Jones of the Madi-
sonian.''
