REMEMBER THE FACTS.

Ever since the Wing Tariff was passed, it has
been constantly abused by the Locofoco orators in
Congress and on the stump, and by their editors.
In Vermont, especially it has been denounced
as ruinous and insulting to the farmers-as grossly
partial TO the manufacturers; and by holding up
Locofocos the true friends of Protection and the
very men to take care of the wool-growers, they
have virtually pledged their party to reform and
correct this bill of denominations" This is a true
bill, Is it Motive appeal to all Locos. Well
your party has FIFTY -FOUR MAJORITY in
the House in Congress-cnough, it would seem,
for all practical purposes; it has spent five months
in debating the Tariff, and has had ample time and
power to perfect bill and remedy every alleged
grievance; it did frame bill and yet with all this
waste OF money and time, this Locofoco Congress
leareS The much absscd Hhig Tariff precisely as ii
prs LEFT by The WhigS' 1t is an admission, stronger
than words can make it, that the Wing Tariff is
sustained by the American People and we 1sh if
it is not also proof that the Locofoco leaders are
utterly unworthy of further confidence or support
from the friends of Protection? They rssge RENE
died alleged grievance on the one hand; on
the other, they hare attempted to rob the Wing Tar
if in the main of its protective features They
agreed in framing bill to reduce the Wing Tariff:
nearly four-ifths of them voted for it, but it was
defeated by tweny-eght members, who either on
principle or interest are for degree of Protec-
ton. This very fact, that it was defeated by such
votes, proves that the bill would have been ruinous
to the cause of Protection, had it been passed.
Remember, then, that the vaunted Locofoco prom.
ises of Reform have been falsfed; that four-ffths
Of the party have recorded their votes for the Free
Trade doctrine as embraced in this bill that eve
ry Wing save one, from the North, the South the
East, and the West stood firm in defence of the
Protective Tariff of 1912.
We subioin classification by States of the vote
in the House of Representatives, by which Mr. Nc
Kays British Bill was laid upon the table, there to
remain during the residue of the present session:

MR.. CLAY ON PROJECTION.

1t has for some months been a standing charge
of the Locofoco newspapers that Mr.. Clay has aban-

at last found a responsible author, and met with a
prompt and decisive denial from Mr.. Clay himself.
"Tho Washington Correspondent of United

Rev. Mr.. Stockton, of the Methodist Church in
Philadelphia, and formerly Chaplain to Congress,

quent and well arranged one, but having little con,
necton with the objects of the meeting. The first
fifteen minutes of his address was occupied with
discussion of the relative bearings of practical and
contemplative Christianity, and making sudden
DEPRESSION to the influence of Christianity upon the
State, he said Look, sir, at the recent nomination

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

The hints in the following, from a British news
paper, are significant. Let the friends of Protec
ton ponGer them:
The Liverpool Engand) Moroury in spoakng fvorably
the annexation Of Texas the United States, says;
" The annexation of Texas would give great additional pre-
pondefance in the Union the interest which
cesary rely the for maintenance Of reHdy political
commercial relations with Euglandtha namely, of the South
growing States The TcIds could be ECES
SARILY additional troctrdde vote, which in the present
anced parties and interests might frequently
csye. We afford aanac the Southern interest," ant
strengthen the advocates Of high Tariff by opposing
warmly advocated by tho Southern States by enlist
ing all the feelings Of National prejudice aud Aus pd
against il throughout the Uuion,'"
Here, then, creeps out another reason why the
Locofoco Free-Traders go for annexation. 1t is
not enough to add four or five more slave States tc
the Union but when they are added, they are tc
vote against Protection, and in favor of British
Free Trade! Let us have no more humbuggcry
about British Interference" from the advocates o
annexation. If England could destroy the Tariff
and get free admission for her commerce into this
country, it would be worth more to her than all hel
East India possessions.

THE OLD FEDERAL ORGAN.

There are not few of the Locofoco party in
Vermont who believe their leaders to be pure Dem
ocrats and anti British in feelings and principle,
and withall the only consistent friends of Protcc-
ton. Would that we could present to every such
man the following extract from one of the leading
Locofoco organs of the present day. 1t is from the
old Federal Evening Post of New-York, and was
written on the defeat of the ocofoco bill to reduce
the Tariff. Mark how this bill is recognised as
Free TRADE bill how the little minority of Loco
focos (25 only ont of 1875 Locos presently who voted
against it. abused as recreant to their party and
taking post among the Wings and at last how this
mighty organ of Locoioco Democracy adopts the
very language, as well as the principles of mem
Der of the British Parliament, in abusing every man
who dares to vote for the protection of American
Industry

GIVING IT UP,

1t is very seldom that we can concur in any
sentiment of the big organ of locofocoism, to wit
the Washington Globe; but here is an extract,
COPIED too, into the Albany Argus) to which we
most heartily agree. Whether the Globe has ac-
cidentally or Intentionally let slip this streak of
TRUTH is perhaps questionable but at any rate it is
a good one. Speaking of the Wing Conventions
the Globe of the Both ult. says:
rc thing however, the Whgs, young and DID, an
example to the democracy worthy of their awakened attention
They throw aside personal preferences, private aspirations
candidate whom the voice of their party has designated to rep
their principles in this great contest for hs success
Of their cherished principles they contend aad satisfied that Nh
Clay, eeetsd ri be dsrOed and iit to ha they
der every other coueton and march, in solid column, to
nominate and TO ELECT HIM"
Aye, most excellent Globe-(for we forgive thee
all thy countless lies for this bit of truh)-aye, the
Wing party is patriotcally striving for cherished
principles; it is firmly united it does conhde in
Henry Clay, and it will elect him
And the Globe was that day in a truth-telling
vein it confesses to report upon report of the UNI
popularity of Mr.. Van Buren-to intrigues to de-
molish him, and winds up with the comforting as
surance that he is not Withdrawn, and will not be,
but by the voice of the locofoco party. We re-
ioce at it; we go, most heartily, for "justice to
Mr.. Van Buren," Let him face the people--the
people whom he first misruled and then abused
1t is but fair that he who has leveed his bowc at
the people, should stand up and take blows back
TO he sure the blows will be hard but then he
got used TO such in 40.
