MIR. POLK ON THE TARIFF.

We have before us Loco oco pamphlet
entitled " Answers Of ex-Gov. Polk to two
Series Of lnterrogatories propoundcd to him
and Gov. Jones, through the presses Of Mem
pills." together with Letter disclosing his
views on the various public questions of the
day. This is pamphlet got up by Polk
himself last summer, when eectioneering for
the office of Governor, and printed at the
Loco Appeal Office, Memphis. In his let
tel, under the head of "'rhe Tariff" Mr..
Polk thus opens:
"THE TARIFF"
upon the subject of the Tariff, have but little TO
add to what have heretofore often declared to the
public. All who have observed my course know that

policy l am for laying such moderate duties on

the act of 1872 not regarding it TO be Revenue Ia

restoration of the Complo mise Act of 1888"
He goes on TO argue that the passage of this
act is violation Of the Compromise, assails
MIR. Clay on that ground, proceeds to specify
the duties on Salt, Sugar, iSows, Axes,
Scythes, Iron, Cotton and Woolen fabrics,
&c. as oppressive and such as ought TO be re-
pealed. And yet the Iron men of Pennsyl-
