Jones at Carrollyille the 18th Of April last, that
we should each wrte'out and publish our views and
opinions on the, subject of the Tariff, ridtpur
respective positions rnieh,he distinctly known dnd

already fully and distinctly known could not

re8ntdtiUe u, Congress- been opposed 10 Protective
policy, as my recorded uotes and pubc speeches prore
Since retired from Congress hare hcid the same
opinions. In the present canvass for Governor
had avowed my opposition to the Tariff act Of the
late Wing Congress, us being highly Protective in
its character and not designed by its authors as
revenue measure | had ayowed my opinion in nay
public speeches that the interests ofthe country and
especially Of the producing and exporting States
required its repeal and the restoration Of the prnci
pies OF the compromise tariff act of 1888

tradict the impression intended to be given by his

LETTER FROM MR.. CLAY.

sertions made in this state by locos. Compare
this letter with the above from Mr. Polk.-and then

mont are honest men.
ASHLAND, Doth June, 1874.
Dear SRI have received your favor, stating
that our political opponents represent me as being
friend of protection at the North, and for free
trade at the South; and you desire an expression
Of my opinion, under my own hand for the pur-
pose of correcting this misrepresentation. | am
afraid that you Will find the effort vain to correct
misrepresentation of me. Those who choose to
understand my opinions can have no difficulty in
clearly compromising them. | have repeatedly
expressed them as late this spring, and several
times in answer to letters from Pennsylvania. My
opinions, such as they are, have been recently quite
as freely expressed at the South, as ever uttered
them at the North. hare every ,chere maintained,
That IN adjusting d Tariff for rcgenue, discrimina-
tons ought 10 be made FOR PROJECTIONS;
THAT THE TARIFF OF 1912 HAS OPERATED MOST
BENEFIcIALLY, and that / AM UTTERLY OP-
POSED TO IT'S REPEAL. These opinions were
announced by me at public meetings in Alabama,
Georgia, Charleston in South Carolina, North Car
olina and in Virginia.
am respectfully, your friend and obedent serv't,

promise act if some few articles shall not prove to
be sufficiently protected beneath the established
maximum rate, l30 per cent. with home valuation,
should hope that in the spirit of harmony and
compromise, ADDITIONAL DUTIES ABOVE
THAT RATE, sufficient 10 afford reasonable protec.
ton 10 those teD articles by general consent WOULD
BE IMPOSED"
At Dayton, Ohio, Sept. 90, 1S42, [subsequent to
the above speech Mr. Clay said
al AM FOR AN ADEQUATE pROTEC-
TON OF AMERICAN INDUSTRY, and not on
~ manufactures, but ALL OTHER BRANCHES +;
and in that form of protection which will be most
generally satisfactory, which promises the most
lasting benefits, and which is therefore most likely
to be stable"
In the same speech he expressed his conviction
that Tariff of 80 per cent. with home valuation,
might be arranged in strict consonanco with the
compromise act, which would be more effective,
both for revenue and protection, than even the Tar
if Of 1912; and of the Tariff of 1s42, (which
Mr.. Polk would repeal because it is too protectve,)
Mr.. Clay in that speech said that it was
"a tariff adopted for the double purpose of sup
plying a necessary revenue TO the government and
incidental protection to the interests Of the people,
By ,Cise determinations IN their behaiC--I AM
GLAD THAT II DID PASS"
In reference to the money from the public lands,
we have already shown that Mr.. Clay regards the
the compromised would also be absolutely fatal
to the cause of protection; but let us add from
Mr. Clays letter of Sept 10, 1643, that he is in IA
vor of
GA faithful administration of the public domain
with an equitable distribution Of The proceeds Of The
sales Of ii among all The States"
L., Al al, IL Al
the compromise does not limit duties to 20 per cent
that any other rate of duties may be imposed
that Congress may extend any amount of protec-
ton required by the exgencies of the country, eli
their by discriminating duties, bounties, or prohi
bition-th distribution of the proceeds of the
public lands is consistent with the compromise
and finally, that he is in favor of adequate protec
ton to all branches of American industry.
BY comparing these views, drawn from the very
language of Messrs. Clay and Polk, it will be seer
that they differ entirely every point of the com
promise, which touches the cause of Protection
1t follows that the ocofoco argument that botl
agree as to protection because both profess tC
abide by the compromise, is mere play upor
words; and when the argument is used by mel
WIZ uHuCIotuHu tllC ldClS anu ule uCtuuI views u
Messrs. Clay and Polk, it becomes gross ant
criminal attempt to deceive the people. Such il
the trickery by which the locofoco leaders mean t
force James X. Polk upon their party in the North
Will the friends of protection in that party tolerate
it 81? Some will not; we know of intelligent men
hitherto in that party, who will support Mr.. Clay
and if the simple truth could have fair chance
with the rank and file, Mr.. Polk would fin few
supporters in Vermont.

PHILADELPHIA RIOTS.

This bloody riot originated in the mere fact
that the Catholics were carrying arms into one of
their Churches. The military were called out to
protect the Church, (which had been protected for
a time by a committee of the Native Americans J
drunken man interfered with the military and a
quarrel ensued, the mob became excited, and at
last the military fired, killing several! The Ma
tives soon rallied and armed themselves to resist
the military, and it was between the Natives and
the militia that the war was carried on during the
night Of July 9Th. On the 9th, the civil and mill
tary power controlled the city

Stale ofjeeling at .NauuOo-By the following
from the louisville Journal of the 3D. it would seem
that the Mormons have more discretion than any
body has given them credit for:
Yesterday morning we announced the murder OF
10. Smith and his brother in the Carthage jail
We have since received by traveller from StLou-
u.s. copy of the st. Louis Gazette, of last Friday
evening, from which we copy several versions Of
the circumstances OF the murder, all Of them no
doubt, containing more or less error We have seen
gentleman who was in Nauvoo on Friday, and
wi o informs I'd that all was quiet there, the prom.
neht mormons exhorting their followers to offer no
insult molestation to any one and in no case to
offer whence except in strict self defence. The
deepest grief and affection prevailed the city,
Warsaw or Carthage.

acknowledgement We did great injustice to
the Spirit of the Age last week in saying that it
claimed that Polk is in favor of 10 per cent. duty
on wool. The Age never tells lies on so small
scale as that: it said that Polk was in favor of l5
cents duty a ponnd!! AS Illustrative of the rerdci-
" Of the Age, let us now say that it charges Mr..
Clay with opposing a Is [20l per cent duty on
Icoarsel wool and supporting the per cent. duty.
Mr.. Cly ,oas not a member of Congress ,Uhen that
question oaS tried!! On the 3st of March, 1912,
Mr. Clay took his leave Of the Senate, and the
Tariff was not passed till August of that year.
