FROM The Phit4GtiPhid fTq1r.r.
The majority Of the people Of the Uni.
ted States will be astonlshed To learn that,
according 10 the organs Of the National
Administration, Mr.. Polk having been e.
Icclel to power by such means as we're
resor,ed to in Pennsylvania, feels j., to tc
his duty 10 WELD the power of his Admin.
is'ralion to the pros,ratIon Of the Tariff of
lsl2 and the revival of the odlouS aaG mi.
qpItous SuMrensury system. The Wash.
lngton Unlon has boldly taken ground
against the Tariff, while IN several quar-.
ters we see that the Independent, or Sub.
treasury scheme is lauded to the SKIES
THIS, too, with the recollection Of the
lrIghl(nl results of that system under the
Van Buren, administration so fresh IN the
minds Of the people. A double fraud, il
would seem, has been prac'sed upon large
masses of the voters. lu' the first place,
they were deceived with regard to Mr..
Folks views upon the Tatn aud in the
second, the idea that his success would
lead to the revival of the SuhtrCnsurv was
scarcely limited at. But the Locofocos
have the power IN their own hands, aud
they seem disposed 10 make use of it IN n
most radical spirit. What a dcplorablc
evil for Pennsylvania would the election OF
James X. Polk prove, if in the first place
his dynasty should break down the Tariff;
IN the second, re.establish the Subtrcasu.
~ and in tho third, plunge the country
Into all the horrors Of war
