Mr.. BUCHANAN AND THETARIFF-

NIX. BUCHANAN AND THE TARIFF
we see 1t limited in the Washington papers.
especially the Union, now the exponent of
the Administration, that Mr.. Walker. the Soc
retary OF the Treasury, will soon present tn
the public reduced tariff of duties. or
course he will Mr. Walker came from Mis-
sissippi-he avows himself free trade man
Mr.. Polk came from Tennessee, and canvas scd
mat State for the Gubernatorial chair as n
Tree trade man. The Attorney General is of
the Tree trade party and Mr.. Marcy WAS onno-
sea by The protectlonists. OF course, then. the
capihel VIII resolve ON some change, impor-
tantand injurious TO the tariff and Mr. Walk
er, the Secretary of the Treasury, will present
1t to the public. MIR. Polk will not. we CON
ceive, suffer much any way, because all that
ne SAID might be made TO meet almost any set
OF opinions. But how will Mr. Buchanan be-
situated! I'm Pennsylvania, MIR. Polk WAS
represented as friend of the tariff of 1912

signature, and which was never denied nv HIM,
was proclaimed at the Democratic mcctincs
III the interior as the token of annie pro,ec-
Ilon TO home industry and home products
MT. buchanan, ii we mistake not. was i'm the
neiu, ana, from the stump, advocated Mr..
folks election, upon what was then under
STOOD TO be the true Pennsylvania policy, the
VI iolnc Industry ana In the track
oil MI Buchanan were displayed flags. having
the motto of "Polk, Dallas, and the Tariff Of
lS42, and even when that motto was not
displayed, the spirit of the inscription was
every where manifest, and the people were an
Pealed to ON all hands, by the Locofoco ora
tors, to vote for Polk, and sustain their tariff.
80 manifest was this, that the free trade men
OF New York city denounced their brethren of
Pennsy lvania, as guilty of deception and deser-
wing defeat, from the very means that secured
TO them success.
Now, as Mr.. Buchanan evidently election
eered with the advantages of a protective tar
MI, either avowed TO the people, or not denied.
when the people raised that cry-what is me
to do in that Cabinet that directs the Secre
tary OF the Treasury to present project for
reducing the scale of duties far below that
which was declared for, when the people of
Pennsylvania voted for James X. Poik? We
shall see. 1t may be that the prophecies
which we hear made, that Mr.. Buchanan must
leave the Cabinet before January next. are
founded on calculation that he will not. as
minister, consent TO that which ne opposed as
an clectioneerer. He will be tried. we think.

"A fire occurred yesterday, between two and

THE CROPS.-We are sorry to hear dismal
accounts oil the coming tobacco crop in this
State. In many, if not most of the counties
on the Missouri, there has bcena very general
iailufe of the plants, in consequence of the
cold and untavorable weather. and those who
persist III attempting to raise them must relv
on the most favorable aspect of the weather

county, noted for the production of our finest
tobacco, the planters are substituting corn and
elsewhere Others are putting in hemp. Unless
very great change takes place in the pros
pcct, there will be AN almost entire failure of
the tobacco crop.
We learn from the country bordering on the
Mississippi, that the Timely rains have greatly
improved the prospect of the wheat. corn and
other crops.

Imposing over the City we find many valu-
able lots and squares totally unoccupied and
unused Tor any purpose whatever. We also
find large number of persons who own no
lots, aud who would gladly buitl good houses
IL they only owned small spot of land ON
which to build. Thus it is that those who
have the land have not the will nor the enter.
prise to build. This results from the monop-
oily OF real estate that is kept up by few in
mviduals. Self interest and patriotic public
spirit should lead to different course. that
would tend TO a general and rapid improve
ment.
There are now around our office pieces OF

at a fair price, would have realized to the own
ers fair sums, and been well improved, which
now are being built up with shantys. Well,
even that is better than TO have them Law idle.
