OPPOSED TO A TARIFF.

>ON'-
tors and papers contend that the demo-
Gratis are opposed to Tariff. They then
go on to show their opposition to the Ia
riff of 40! Now we ask any candid man,
if because man is opposed to, the pres
snt listing law, for instance, it follows
that he is opposed to any listing law
No such thing! The democrats have al
ways sustained Tariff for the support
of the government, and the protection OF
our own industry. No man on earth can
show the contrary; but now, because
thew cannot favor The Tariff of 40 as per-
feet in all its parts-the coons declare
they are opposed to Tarif.-to any and
all Tariffs The truth is the coons de-
clare, if yol are not in favor of our Ia
riff you are not in favor of any Tariff
That is it, With Just as much propriety
may the Baptist people say to the Meth
odisis, because you arc not in favor of
our bapt SIN, you are not in favor of any
baptism!
Daniel Webster voted against the Ia
riff of "a Is he the enemy of a Tariff
John Quincy Adams voted against the
Tariff of '12. Is he the enemy of Ia
riff; Henry Clay was opposed to the
Tariff of 49, Is he the enemy of a Ia
riff; WHO ever heard any man declare
Daniel Webster opposed to any and all
Tariffs because he did not vote for the
Tar of '21-or who ever heard any
man declare Henry Clay opposed to any
and all Tariffs because he did not ap-
prove of The Tariff of '28-or who ever
heard any man declare John Quincy Ad-
ans opposed to any and all Tariffs be-
cause he did not vote for the Tariff of AZ ;
The coOrs mry charge Dapel Webster,
Henry Clay, and John Quincy Adams
with being opposed to Tariff because
they did not approve of the Tariffs OF "a,
% and 40 with just the same reason that
they charge the democrats with being OPP
posed to Tariff because they do not ap-
prove of the Tariff of 40 in all its de-
tails.
The truth is, the coons framed and
passed, by the aid Of democrats, the Ia
riff of 40, and now, any and every man
who WI not come up to the scratch and
swear that The Tariff of 40 is just the
best th'pg hat can be framed. they de-
clare is an opponent of a Tariff of any
sort or kind! This is intolerance with
Vengeance. WAY don't ,ley assert that
arv man who is not in favor of The man
Henry Cl'y, for Preside 1t. is, therefore,
opposed to any man for PRESIDENT You
don't approve of o~ Tariff No, Then
you don't want any Tariff, You don't
like snuff on yourhash; No. Then you
don't like hash. wish to buy horse.
Well, says nv neighbor, have horse
I'll sell you; fine whiie horse. But, |
don't want awhile horse prefera Jlack
horse. Then you don't want any horse
at all! The coons got up Inc Tariff of
10 and when democrat suggests that it
is not exactly right, here and there in its
details, although he goes the principle of
IA Tariff, he is impudcntly told that he
don't go for any Tariff. Look here Mr.
halter, want a hat. All! | have Just
the thing - splendid one | made for
myself. But, m, dear sir, this is No. 8
and ! wear No. I; it is too largc tell
you it is just he thing for you-I know.
No, but ! can't wear it, it is too largc-I
don't want it. Well then, if you don't
want his hat, you don't want any hat!
On the same principle the coons tell the
democrats because they don't approve of
The tariff of ~ in all its details, they don't
want any Tariff!
