taken. American born citizens ought to be
ashamed of it,-for they have not the excuse
of an ignorant Irish population, the plea of
prejudice, of religious fanaticism, and of ig-
noTance.
We,are amazed. that, for three days or more,
a riot resulting in the loss of so much life,
and the conhagration Of so many dwellings,
could be prolonged in any city of this Union.

hardly be, we suspect, unless stupor came
over the minds Of men, from the blood that

Of the disturbances.
In settling up the loss by these disturban-
ces, we hope it will be rigidly insisted that the
civil community in which Kensinst on is, shall
fully pay for the loss oil property, and oflimb,
and if it could be for the loss of life. There

WAsHINGroN, May IL.
The Locofocos, in grand caucus assem-
bled, last evening, agreed 10 the 18th of June
for the adjournment Of the two Houses. The
Senate have named the 81 of May, but will
be glad TO concur to the earliest day named
by the House. If the caucus plan, therefore,
is carried out tomorrow in the House ofRep-
resentatives, Congress will adjourn in FIVE
weeks from tomorrow.
Ii is not yet known who will be Secretary
of the Treasury. The names floating for the
Office are Albert Tracy and Gov. Marcy, OF
~. Y, Mr. Green. of n. j., and Alexander
Everett, who has been in the cityfor month
past. Mr. Nelson, the Attorney General, still
holds on to his Office here. but has less TO
say of Van Buren, presume than formerly.
The tide Of Van Buren, is setting in more
strongly again, not from choice. but from ne
cessity. The Texas mania is subsiding slow
ly. The Senate have or will have propo-
sition to discuss the Treaty with open doors,
the effect ofwhich would be TO consume twice
as much time as otherwise would be occu-
pied upon the subject. The Treaty is not
yet reported from the Committee on Foreign
Relations. The result OF the Report, howev-
er, is as well known as if the Committee had
reported. The Southern Locofocos will be
about all that will support the Treasury, and
probably not all OF those.

PROTECTION AND PRICE OF
WOOL.

The Editor of the Patriot labors Justify to
prove that the rise in the price of wool is no
way attributable to the present tariff. 1t is
hard. even for this copyist of Amos Kendall
and the Globe to kick against the pricks. 1t
is indeed tremendous tax upon his ingenu-
lty, to show that the present tariff which dis
eliminates with so much care between coarse
wool and fine, in the duties on the importa-
ton Of the lower grades, with view of sub
Jecting all fHe woods coming in competition
with our own to the highest rate of duties,
should not have had any influence in check
lug the introduction of SouthAmerican wool.
That the importation of this staple has de-
creased from 10 millions in 1912, to 43-4
millions in 1913, is a fact which cannot be
denied. Public documents prove it as seen
below, and still further. The importation of
fine wool hasdecreased in the same time from
600,0 lbs, to 100000.
But in these results, the Patriot allows no
efficacy TO the Tariff, but has not the ingenu-
ity TO devise any other cause. This it leaves
to conjecture. But we would ask, if South
American wool costing cents abroad, and
paying but few mills Of duty, or the lowest
rate Of duties, is such wool as the American
manufacturer wants, why in the name ofwon-
der do not our manufacturers continue to i'm |
portit, rather than give 40 cents for the do |
mestic fleece as they have done since the pas /
sage Of the Tariff The truth is this sort of
coarse and buried wool is very little wanted,
and never SO much as to pay the fifty and sew
enty-ive per cent duty imposed upon it, and
which is actually paid, if the Collector of New
York is to be believed. As to the coarse for
eign wool used for negro cloths, blankets.
&c. the less the duty the better. 1t does not
come in competition with any which any sane
man in this country would wish to raise.
The difficulty with the editor of the Pat
riot is, and ever has been that he lays down
alse premises, and Of course his conclusions
ire all delusive. All South American wool
which comes at all in competition with our
'wn, pays from so to rs per cent. duty in
tead of mills and no fine European wool

rofit, is enhanced to IS cents as the lowest

aud other locofocos, who arc now eyincing
their sincerity in Congress by attempting to
reduce it at least one third. But, brother far
mers, look out for the men who cry out that
the whig tariff is good for nothing. They
would have it so. What are the interests of
the toiIing people to men who can fatten only
on the spoils. Unless some extraordinary
event should occur, your wool, we assure
you, will fetch more this year than last, and
all you can reasonably desire;at least 30 cents
for what last year was sold for 81. The at
tempts of locoiocoism to break down the ia
riff for the present session have failed. This
will add TO the frmness Of the market for
wool, by imparting new energy to the manu-
facturers and extending their operations.

They had preserved the peace since midnight,
and protected the firemen in subdung the
flames. The elements of destruction, how
ever, were on the ground. Thousands and
tens of thousands of persons were there and
in the neighborhood collected in groups, and
crying for vengeance.
The persons killed or wounded were almost
all citizens Of Philadelphia, and all Ameri-
cans. They were all peaceable people, and
had assembled there chiefly to see what was
going on. They were fred upon by the Irish
from the various houses occupied by that
class in that neighborhood. The Native A
rericsns being unable to dislodge them, fred
the buildings. A fine new Catholic Church,
and parsonage adjoining, inhabited by the
priests, was saved by the energy of the mill
tary; but when We were Oh the ground, the
populace could, with great difficulty, be re-
strained. The Police of the city was of no
avail, and it viii be owing entirely to the Mil
itary, if the destruction ends where it is.
The Catholic clergy were endeavoring to
appease their own people and the citizens gen.
orally.
Several, and we believe all, the Catholic
churches in the city were guarded by persons
who worshipped there.
The loss of life on the part of the Irish is
very small. They were all within their bull
dings, where they could not, except with
great difficulty, be dislodsed. Every good
citizen, whether Catholic or American, is us
ing his influence to restore peace and order.

The summary disposition of the Tariff Bill:
yesterday, i'll the House Of Representatives. has
given rise 10 great many speeulations. Ii was.
however, an event TO have teen expe cted. and no
caucus management, think could have made the
result different one.
The Bill would have been rejected. had there
been the test vote, by the same majority il WAS
laid on the table. The Calhounmen in the House
affect TO be outraged by the result, but it was as
as well known iour months since as now. and the
precise course was then predicted. By the vote
in the House of Representatives, the Senate are
saved the trouble Of doing what the House has
DONE
The House have but two Appropriation
Bills to pass upon now, and may adjourn, if
they will, upon the 9th of May, the day fix
ed upon by the Senate. The two appropri
alton bills to be acted upon, are the General
Appropriation Bill and the Navy Appropria-
ton Bill, both of which may easily be dispos-
ed OF IN few days. In legislative business,
the Senate are ahead of the House of Reure,
