FARMERS AND MECHANICS, READ IT!
MR.. WOODBURY'S LATE SPEECH ON THE
TARIFF-HEAR HIM

The reliance of all men should be on their
own energies, and skill, and local advantages,
looking, Sir Robert Peel at last sensiby advises the
Iamcoh farmers to do after experiencing the epiLs Of
different course, MORE TO THEIR MANUREs AND
LESS TO GOVERNMENT"
Only another way of saying {" the people ex-
pect too much of the Government" And are
American farmers to regulate their conduct by
what Sir Robert Peel advises the farmers of
Tamworth to do To depend more upon their
manures, and less on the Government! What
say you, farmers, to this? Is your conduct to
be regulated by the scale meted out to the Tam
North farmers by Sir Robert Peel, and to you,
by his echo, Woodbury.! Think of it, and an
swer him as he deserves with scorn and indig-
nation.
And you, MECHANICS, listen to the sentiments
he adopts in reference 10 yosr wages:
"By which means protective dutes) the
workmen are enabled to tax the home consumer
by great prices, while the higher wages they
receive, MAKES THEM NEITHER HAPPIER NOR RICH
Err, SINCE THEY ONLY DRINK MORE AND
WORK LESS"
Impudence and slander-do downright calsmny.
Buchanan said that you could do as ,ceU with
low wages as you could with high. But what
says Woodbury." the higher wages you re-
ceive makes you neither happier nor richer,
since you only DRINK MORE AND WORK
LESS" The American MECHANIC, then, drinks
just in proportion TO the wages he receives; and
it is necessary, therefore, to prevent him from
DRINKING too much, to pay him lo,D ,oages
This is the estimate Of this free-trade dema-
gogue-this patent democrat-this dear lover Of
the people-of the Mechanics of the country.
They only DRINK MORE and WORK LESS,
according to the wages they get 1t is not
enough to break down your wages, but you are
to be told that it is for your owm good, to pre-
vent you from DRINKING TOO much, that your
wages are to be reduced to the level Of the pau
per labor of Europe Let him hear you, Me-
chanics Spurn this vile calumny, and its
utterer, as you would pestilence.

THE PRIZE BANNER.

The committee appointed by the Baltimore
City Wing Convention for the purpose Of pre-
pairing an appropriate BANNER, to be presented
to such State delegation maryland excepted) in
the Young Mems Wing National Convention of
Ratification, to assemble in Baltimore on Thurs.
day, the second day Of May, 1874, as shall on that
occasion have the proportionabe largest number
in attendance, having in view the Wing popula-
Of the several States as tested by the Presiden-
from this city," have issued an address "to the
Wings Of the United States" inviting an earnest
and enegetic competition for its possession. 1t
will bear upon its front (says the committee) an
admirable likeness of him upon whom the eyes
of the Union are now fixed in hope and expecta-
ton, and who has always Ito use the words Of the
motto upon our banner) ain all assaults our SUI
rest signal" 1t will be supported by an ASH
STAFF, cut at our request by the hands of HENRY
CLAY himself from the soil of ASHLAND.
The following is the basis upon which the de-
cision will be made:
Make Delaware the starting point. Her
Wing population is 5,967. Dover, her capital, is
80 miles from Baltimore. The delegation from
each other State should be either larger or small
err than that from Delaware, in proportion to its
greater or less Wing population, with proper
tlonable reduction for an increased distance, or
proportonable addition for decreased distance.
Thus:
"The Wing population of N. Jersey is 33,35l,
which is $50 per cent. Of that OF Delaware. There
fore, for every hundred delegates sent by Della
ware, if the distances were equal, New Jersey
should send $50. But the distance from Della
ware being only 63.49 per cent. of that from New
Jersey, (which is l26 mles,) New Jersey would
be required TO send only 6349 per cent. of the
number she must otherwise send, that u.s. 6349
per cent. of $50, which is 355.''

PENNSYLvANIA-THE TARIFF.

In the lower House Of the Pennsylvania Lee
gislature, the 18th instant, the following res
olutions were adopted unanimously-the vote
being yeas 80, and nays none They were sent
to the Senate, which body will doubtless signify
their concurrence by decided vote:
Whereas, the present Tariff promises to an
swer the purposes of revenue, and also yields to
American industry the encouragement necessary
to the development of the great resources of our
country and whereas permanency in our reve-
nue. laws is indispensably necessary to the pro-
lection of the capital and labor embarked in man
ufacturing and agricultural operations under the
sanction OF those laws, and can alone insure and
advance the prosperity of the various great inter-
ests which, combined, constitute the wealth Of
the nation; and whereas, bill is now pending
in the Congress Of the United States, the opera
ton Of which would affect, injuriously, the inn
portant staple productions of this Common
wealth; therefore
Resoiued, That our Senators in Congress be
instructed, and our Representatives requested,
to oppose any change in the present Tariff which
might prove injurious to the manufacturing and
agricultural interests of this Commonwealth !;
sternly to resist any reduction in the present
duties on iron, coal, and wool, and to omit no
effort to sustain all the great interests OF the
nation, calculated to foster and promote AmeI-
can industry.
Resolved That copy Of this resolution be
forwarded to each of our members in the House
of Representatives and Senate Of the United
States, with the yeas and nays attached.

The Buenos Ayreans have taken everything ex-

strick blockade from Browns troops on one hand

into the city whilst his fleet boards every vessel
that comes in, to see if they have any on board.
We had 500 hams on board, which escaped their
notice, and on which we made quite "spec."
One of Browns schooners ordered the barque

her; she braced her main yard aback, as if for
him to come on board, but she Immediately braced
her head-yards also, and in the twinkling of an
