STRIrE.-How hateful is the spirit Of
contention and strife 1t drives away the
pure and warm affections of the soul and
maketh demon to reign in their stead
And how prevalent is the scourge. FamI-
lies, kindred, eighborhoods, are affected by
it, and where should be peace and love,
there are hatred and revenge.-S,rive for
peace if we would be happy. Give no oc-
casion to stir up the muddy waters of dissen-
sion and strife. There is misery enough
produced by the common vicisstudes of life,
without adding to the catalogue of evils
How many once happy and contcnted neigh
bors have been allenated, the strife commen-
cling with an unkind word, harsh rebuke,
or some other trivial affair in itself unworthy
of notice, but opening the way fierce Ian
guage and violent measures, till,
"Contention, like horse
Full of high feeding mndly has broken loose
And bears down all before it.
Labor for peace. Do nothing-say not a
word that will stir up strife 1t is the death
of happiness ; the sure road to misery
Bear much suffer deprivation even, rather
than dispute, and live and not die in whirl
Of contention. Portland Tribune.

] GEN. JACKsON's FINE BILL.

81 -. The House yesterday had under consideration
4 in Committee of the Whole the bill to refund
Y Sen Jackson's fine, upon which Mr.. Schenck, Of
Ohio, having the floor, addressed the committee.
MIR. s., replied to the several gentlemen who have
spoken favor Of the bill, and repealed their at
lacks upon Judge Hall and the judiciary in
: manner that told upon the committee, and will
serve as caution to those who felt the force Of
his arguments and his sarcasms not to wake up
such an antagonist again. He also replied to the
argument intended, no doubt, TO operate upon the
people Of the country, that Judge Hall was, San
Esglishman"- British Judge" land therefore
the, fine imposed by him, whether right or wrong,
! must be Illegal and unjust, and should be re-
funded This was an argument the force Of
which MIS-. could not understand. He had sup
posed that the Judge was the, embodiment Of the
law, and that through him thsslaw itself spoke.
He wished to know of the gentlemen who had
taken it upon themseves TO .stigmatse Judge
Hall because he had no friends, whether, when a
man is arraigned before court, and is asked
what he has to say why fine should not be i'm
posed upon him. It is sufficient answer to reply,
"you are foreigner sir, or q you are cow
ard" He wished to know if such were legal
pleas in the courts Of Indiana or Illinois. !
The wincing manifested BY gentlemen under
the severe lash of Mr.. Schenck, furnished the
best evidence of its judicious application. I'm
der the scorching effect Of those rays Of truth
! which Mr.. S. collected, and which were concen-
trated by the powerful lens If his mind, the chap
let which Mr. Douglass, Of Illinois, woye for the
adorunent Of his own bfows; wiltered and with
erred Nor did Mr. Kennedy escape more foru-
nately; in reply to his wholesale charge Of cor
rnption against the Judiciary, and his allusion
to his having been a blacksmith, Mr.. Schenck
said he feared the gentleman had forgotten much
that he had learned whenexercising that respect
able calling; that he had foo1ong hammered the
political anvil, and blown the bellows Of Democ-
racy, and that while thus employed, he had lost
some Of that respect for;.the Judiciary which
was generally entertained by the intelligent and
vrtuous mechanics of this country. ea1 ~

MR. MADISON ON THE TARIFF.
Some unknown friend has dropped in our box
the following extract taken from the Virginia Free
Press;
"REMINISCENCES.
On the discussion Of tariff bill in 1885, Mr.
Madison, then in Congress, said
"The people adopted the nev Constitution, +
believe, under the universal expectation that we
should collect higher dulles. We must do this,
# we mean to avoid direct taxation, which was
always means of revenue in the particular
6tates.'' ~ 81
The bill passed that year was approved by
General Washington on the fourth of .Julu, and
was deemed second Declaration of Indepen-
dence-placing our commerce above the influence
OF British restrictions. The preamble to that bill
is IN the following words fr ra 4.
!" Whereas it is necessary for the support of
government. for the discharge of the debts Of the
Union, and the enc0uraaenem and protection
Of manufactures, that duties be laid on goods.
wares, and merchandise, imported-Be il enact.
ed" &C. n sa6atl9 eH ! aastias3 i -
This was the doctrine, and these the trords Of
the Father of his Country, and Of the Founder
OF the Constitution. Is it likely the striplings Of
Modern Democracy have a better knowledge of
the true powers of Congress, than these Fathers
had! Let common sense answer the question
Yes! this was the doctrine then, and for many
years afterwards. Mr.. Philip Barbour was the
first man who ever doubted the perfect constitu-
tlonalty OF the tariff for protection. BY the Con-
stitutlon, unlimited power over the subject; is
given to Congress-. Mr. Madison, who perfectly
well understood the feeling and designs Of the
people on this subject, here informs us what was
the object in giving it this power. We do not
see what argument can be used against SO plain
a declaration as this of Mr. Madison! sg'las +

CAN THE FRIENDS OF Mr.. CALHOUN SUPPORT
Mr.. VAN buren, !-Calhounites are, or should
be, free traders. But on such subjects, it is as
difficult to find Mr.. Van Buren, as it is to find the
author of Junius, or the man sUho struck Billy
Patterson. The State Convention in New York
which chose the delegates to Baltimore recog-
nized the principle Of Tariff. That State, as
well as Virginia, appointed the delegates by con-
vention-a method wholly repudiated by Cal
houn and his friends. Can all these things be bur-
ed and forgotten, by men who have natural antip-
athies against Mr.. Van Buren's character antp-
athies sharpened by the oily trickeries of his
whole political history. Can these things be {?
When we hear that Mr.. Calhoun will give his
cordial support to Mr.. Van Buren,, we shall con-
clude that oil and water will commingle.

FOOLISH IF NOT IMPIoUs.-A party Of foolish
fellows in Philadelphia entered an undertaken.
shop, and one conserving to play the dead man,
was nailed up in coffin, and several danced
upon 1t. On opening tbs lid, the man lay appa-
rently suffocated and dead, which produced great
CONSERVATION among the party, and alarmed
several females, who were brought to the spot
by the commotion, but the sham dead man soon
disappointed their apprehensions by springing
from the coffin. When the King of Terrors APP
pears to him in reality, we doubt whether his
courage will enable him to repeat such scene.

act OF 1912 passed. Generally the duties which
It imposes are lower than those in the act Of
1883. And without intending to express any
opinion upon every item Of the last tariff would
say that think the provisions in the main, are
wise and proper If there be any excuses or
defects in it, (of which have not the means Of
judging) they ought TO be corrected-Mr. Clay's
letter to Mr.. Bronson.

tent to enact it's inexplicable shows in popular

II will be seen by the following article from
Hills N. H. Patriot, that the editor of that DEM
ocntic paper, and the N. Y. Evening Post, edited
by Mr.. Bryant bear strong testimony to the de-
iciency in principle, and the shameful manage
ment which characterize the proceedings at eau
cuses aud conventions of the Democratic party:
PARTY MAcHINERY.--The New York Evening
Post, in reference to the system in vogue in that
city for appointing delegates 10 the c INVENTIONS,
aud committees for the nomination of candidates
to be supported at the election, says:
1T is fact, admitted by all, that our system
of nominations by conventions has become cor
rupt to the core. Our primary meetings have
been disgrace and by-word. Frauds of the
basest nature are openly and unblushingy prac-
tised to secure delegates to the nominating COM
mittee, who will subserve the interests of few
corrupt politicians like greedy pack of
hounds, set upon any man who dares expose
their prohigacy, the profigacy OF those who owe
their elevation to Their shameless frauds" &c. y
New York city is not the only place where
precisely such conduct as described above is
openly and unbushingly practised," and after
wards avowed and justified The present Gov
ernor Of our State owes bo.h his nominations to
the Office he now holds, to practices fully as un-
Unsuitable BY any rules of common honesty, as
would be the basest political fraud ever perpe-
trated while the members elect to the present
Congress from this State, or two Of them at least,
could never have been nominated except through
the grossest profigacy and corruption. And yet,
for not supporting such nominations, thus made,
many of the Oldest, frmest, and most consistent
Democrats in the State have been formally read
out Of the party" and denied all participation in
the primary meetings of the people. Such have
been the operations of "party machinery" in
New Hampshire; its effects can scarcely have
been worse in any other part of the Union.
