A Voice from Tennessee.

We copy below paragraph, from an ediio-
rial article tha, appeared in late number Of
the National Banner II embodies just re-
buke to the friends of the Tariff in New York
and Pennsylvania. who voted for Polk. We
canno, feel surprised a. the indignation Of our
brethren in Tennessee, especially when we re-
member that that Stale has just gone for Hen
ry Clay and the Tariff of 1912, while The EN-
pire and the Keystone States have given their
voles, in The language Of the Banner, 10 de.
lermned enemy of leading Whig measures.
"You men of New York and Pennsylvania,
are responsible for the disaster brought upon
the nation by. the election Of a man whom we
Of Tennessee have rejected for the Chief Ma
gisiracy Of the nation, after having rejected him
over and over again, when candidate for The
Office Of Governor in the State. We have no
bitterness Of feeling towards you we have gone
with you in support Of measures on which pros
perry is based and you have chosen TO place
over US man who is the determined enemy OF
those measures. Are We to understand from
your decision ,ha, you are in favor Of breaking
down the Tariff! II that is your meaning, be
assured ,ha, we. of this region, can meet the
direful consequences quite as well as you can.
LIE, your elected anti-,ariff President do his
wors. in destroying the benefcen, policy we
have advocated; and We will see who could

Saiaeratus a Substitute for Saltpctre
i'm Curing Meat.

Sallpetre has long been considered by ply
sicians as bad article TO be used IN curing
meat, being extremely injurious 10 digestion.
Ii is Of SO cod nature that only small guam
riy is sufficient TO destroy ife In The article
of saleralus we have an excellent, convenient,
and harmless substitute. and should be used in
the same manner as sal,pe,re has been. Meat
has stronger affinity for salrpeire than for CON-
mon salt, Saleratus has the same power in
that respect. and 'hereby prevents The meal,
from becoming too salt, and the same quantity
should be used as of salipere. There is this
difference in them, that salrpelre dissolves read
lily in cold water, whereas saIeratus does not
i. should be pounded and dissolved before i, is
pu. into the brine. Salera,us is composed of
sulphale Of potash and pearlash; and if any
person is disposed to procure the sulphate OF
potash al the shops, and use it instead of sal
aralus, they will fud its effects substantially

The Legislature of this State met a, Colum-
bis. on the 25,h uI,.. and organized by electing
Speakers Of both Houses On the following
day Governor Hammond sent in his annual
Message, in which, among other things, he
threatens nulifcation, and dissolution Of the
Union, unless the Tariff is repealed and Texas
annexed. He also denounces the Northern
loco focos, as a set Of shuffling, ,reacherous
politicians. on whose honesty and good faith no
reliance can be placed In this las, particular,
he is unquesiionably right. As TO his threats
of notification and dissolution, i, may do TO
amuse the no, spirits of his own State. and get
them into such another difficulty as Henry Clay
freed them from in 1888.

The Southern papers, without single ex-

peal of the Wing Tariff Of ls42, will follow,
as one of it's natural consequences. On the
Sher hand, portion Of the Pennsylvania Loco
Focos say, ,ha, if Mr.. Polk permits the pres
ent Tariff to be repealed, he is traitor-a We

one Of The queeres, times, according TO all ac-
counts that ever occurred. The only thing of

place, was the presentation Of large piece Of
