THEIR BRETHREN IN VERMONT
The Spirit of the Times, The leading ocofoco
paper Of Philadelphia, publishes the following re-
marks on the passage of the new bill, enshrouded
in black mourning lines
PASSAGE or THE TARIFF BILL IN THE SEN
ATE-TREAsoN TO PENNSYLVANIA! The infamy
has been consummated! and by the vote Of George
Mfln Dallas, of Pennsylvania! The old Key
stone has been blasted by the migrate hand of
treacbcrous son! Like that of him who fred the
Ephesan dome, the fame of George NJ. Dallas shall
be immortal Immortal to eXecation immortal
to iniamy! The Commonwealth that had given
him BIRTH life, favor, wealth, station and power,
called upon him 10 stretch forth his arm aud save
her; he has answered the call as the assassin
spends to the mercy cry of the helpless. Alas
poor Pennsylvania! An empire within herself,
possessing more OF the real elements of wealth and
greatness than the entire Union besides, she has
been sacrificed to the dogmas of the Souh-pros-
trated and trodden down to earth by those who
were pledged orally and in writing to stand by her.
The fraud must be wiped out-REPEAL is the
word, and we set the ball in motion, even though
we stand SOLITARY and alone" But we shall not
be alone. The rough, stout arms of sixteen thou
sand iron workers and miners, will roll on the ball,
nor will it stop till justice has been done TO Penn
sylvania.
There is still ginmor of hope, but it is gm-
mtr only. The bill goes back to the House for
co occurrence in Mr. Webster's amendment. We
fc II that the partizan lash has had its effect there
TOD and that the efforts Of our energetic delegation
viii not avail us. 1t is slight thing on which to
hang the hopes Of the State. To our Senator's 81
MON CAMERON and DANIEL STURGEuN, the State
will ever owe debt of gratitude They have
ID mistaken and unntmldated, disfegarding a
like the Establishments and denunciatlons OF those
in ligh places. They too, will be remembered ;
and. their memories, years after they have gone
fro m among the living will be dear to every true
Pc nnsylvanan. Though overpowered by numbers
tn ey have come CALAMITY out Of the struggle.
Tennessee What shall Pennsylvania say to
her? We gave her President to whom she re-
fused her vote; she has given US, by the instruc-
Ii pms Of her Legislature the invable tableau of a
rlined and disgraccd Commonwealth We'll may
p ennsyvania exclam in the language Of the sim
pie Thracian,
" There gods in heaven"
The American Sentinel another leading Demo
ratio paper, says:
1,HE TARIFF BILL PASSED TIE SENATE
PENNSYLVANIA DECEIVED.
The news of the passage of the Tariff Bill, by
t'ne Senate, was received in this city by Telegraph
cserday afternoon, and caused tho most intense
excitement. There was but one burst of indigna-
ton, that Pennsylvania had been grossly deceived
nd that her best interests had been Frustrated, too
by the vote of George Miflin Dallas, one of hei
own sons-whom she had lostered and cherished
Ir yearS-and WHO she had a right TO expect WOulC
| 81 and by her. in the hour of trial.
Mr.. Dallas has thrown the weight of his innu
I ence into the Southern scale, against his native
| Stale. We are sorry that we have to reco th
deed of deep ingratitude 10 the keystone State
If Mr.. Dallas had, by the remotest hint, given The
people of Pennsylvania, in the campaign Of 1874
! to beove that lie would 90 with the South for
| Southern Tariff, he would not have been elected
Vice President.
| what makes this act the more offensive, is the
TACT, that up TO the time of his reaching the Vice
| Presl dency, to have questioned his Pennsylyani!
! Tariff feelings would have been considered gros!
! insult But now, since he has been looking out o
Pennsylvania instead of keeping his eve upon he
interests, he has grown needless OF her great inter
ests. Nay to such distance has he wandered
that the Great mining and iron interests of Penn
| sylvania have been wholly Frustrated by his vote
! The people of Pennsylvania should sit down II
sP.ckclo and ashes, and lament this great dis
SER, inflicted upon them by one of her heretofore
4" cherished sons" Should Mr.. Dallas live 10 The
a, &c of Methuselch he will never be able to make
h 9no industry of Pennsylvania. Ia kweli t, al
ice Presidents, for the future, from fenilsy wanna
We have had enough of one TO last US, while al
W Ito live now shall continue to breathe the breatl
OF existence in our land.
To say that the People of Pennsylvania have
! cen horribly deceived, on aqueston of immens
il nportance to her prosperity, is TO use mild ant
ieasured language. Indeed such has been th
f ,rce of the blow that MIR. Dallas has given to h
rospcrity of Pennsylvania that it will never b.
orgotten, overlooked, by the patriotic and intel
il gent people of our Commonwealth.
We repeat that we arc sorry that Mr.. Dallas ha
il ientifed himself so strongly with the South tina
P ennsylvana will never attempt to break tn
C. lans that bind him and the Free Traders togeth
| C r Whatever signet Pennsylvania may have pla
I'd upon him anterior to his vote, it is now erase
! f ,rever.
These are but specimens Of the voice of tn
d. ,mocratic presses in old Pennsylvania. Ofeght,
pr csses friendly to the administration there is onl
a half dozen which do not utterly condemn TIN
tt cachery of Polk and Dallas. Democrats of Yer
m ont: they appeal to you for sympathy and aid il
denouncing and furnishing the treachery 70,
also were deceived by the Kane letter, and tn
| false CLOSES and promises of your leaders, yo'
| a lso are sacrificed TO the South by this wretche
| ill; and why should not you join your brethren
! O Pennsylvania, ard break the chains of part
hich have bound you to the service of your wors
nemies? We regret to say it, but it is true tina
Il lere is not press in Vermont, of your party
hich will have the Independence to coudemn tn
II eachery of your leaders, or even permit you t
81 re the demonstrations which are coming from tn
d emocracy of Pennsylvania upon this subject
GU can bring your leaders to their senses, onl
/. Y taking the decided ground of utterly abandon
il e those who have abandoned you. If YOU ar
IL C friends of Protection-if you arc for eenuin
A mericon independence, is the time 70 sho
| it.
