Discrimination Against Protec-
&Snvn

The new tariff not only reduces the duty
on most orthe products of this country, but
also discrininates against Home Industry by
admitting foreign manufactured goods AT Il
less rate ofduty than is charged on the raw ma
teral For instance, take the article Of wool
which is one of the staple products OF Yer
mont The duty on wool is reduced from
Ten TO fifteen per cent, but even this is not the
worst feature the bill While unmanutac-
tured wool Is taxed 30 per cent adsa'orem, va
rious kinds ofwoolen manufactures are adj
mitted by paying duty of20 and 25 per cent
thus discriminating directly against the A
merican manufacturer and wool growers and
in favor of European pauper labor. Our
government says in effect to England, "Wc
shall charge you 30 per cent on your uninan-
ufactured wool, but just makeSit up into tlan-
nels, blankets, bookings, yarn, &c, &c, and
we will make discrimination in favor ofyow
manufacturers and laborers offs and 10 per
cent" And this is called, by the Vermont
Patriot and other Locotoco papers, tariff
for the benefit of the farmer and ofthe labor
ing classes generally! They even call upon
the woolgrowcrs of Vermont to sustain 1t on
account of the protection il affords to their
WOOL. Admitting for moment, that 30 per
cent nd ra|ore,a is sufficient protection for the
wool grower, if the tariffs so constructed us
to kill ofIour manufactures where is he to find
n market for his wool? Even 100 per cent
would not nvail him any thing in such case.
Whnt advantage will the farmer derive from
high protection unless he can find Il sale for
the products he raises? What we have said
about wool applies equally well to ALMOST all
the other agricultural products of the Nor
thern states. Discrimination against Home
production and Home labor Is one ofthc most
prominent features of the new bill. 1t was
framed with the express view Of encouraging
the largest amount of foreign importations.
Workingmen look at this for yourselves.

LATE AND IMPORTANT FROM MEXI-
CO.-REVOLUTION IN FAVOR OF
SANTA ANNA. SANTA ANNA GONE
TO MEXICO.
The NY. papers have the following advi-
,ces from Mexico:
The City nf Vera Cruz, including the gar
rison of the castle ofSan Juan d'Ulloa, has
pronounced against the government of Pa
redes, and in favor of Santa Anna. This
movement is made in concurrence with the
revolution i'll the department of Jalisco, IAN
nounced by former arrivals) which, so far
from being put down, has gained strength and
consistency with every passing hour A
government force under General Alevalo,
which was sent to suppress TWAS cut to piec-
es, and the General killed.
We learn from Captain Adams, that on the
next day after the news ofthe pronunciamen-
to at Vera Cruz reached Havana, General
Santa Anna left the city for Vera Cruz, ac-
.companied by Generals Almonte and Rajon,
in the British steamer Arab.
These events will be productive of most
important consequences to Mexico, and may
have no slight bearing upon our future rela-
tons with that country.
Two battalions oftroops had left the capital
of Mexico for the North prior;to the 28th ult.
and that Paroles was intending to follow i'm
mediately, with the remainder OF the army
of reserve. The pronunciamento at Vera
Cruz and the arrival ofSanta Anna,who must
have reached that port about the 18th inst
probably prevented Paredes' departure, or in
duced his immediate return, and perhaps al
so the recall Of the two battaions above men,
toned. The prospect now is that the Mexi-
cans, for some time to come, will have plen-
ty to do i'll fighting each other, without be-
slowing any attention upon the American in
Vaders.

From the above it will be seen that New England
voted against the increase of duties in 1924 and 1928
and tied on the tariff Of 1882, but went almost
unanimously for the present whig tariff of 1912"
That the middle States have always loved 'protec-
