THINGS IN WASHINGTON.
From tho regular Correspondent of the N. Y. Tribun
WAsHINnrnN Eph. u I2l


WASHINGTON, Feb. "a, 1876.
From what | learn, think it quite probable that
the Tariff Bill prepared with so much trouble and
expense by Sir Robert Walkers Committee, will
never see the broad daylight Of the House. 1t will
be strangled in Committee. Gen. Mckay, Of N.
Carolina, thinks he can make much better bill
with much less assistance than Sir Robert.
The License cases from Massachusetts and r.
Island, have been continued, by order Of the Su-
prene Court, till the next term, which commences
in December next They will then be brought up
by special privilege, among the very first business
upon the Court. You will recol ect that the Mass
achusotts case was continued from last term, as the
Court was so divided that there was not majority
of the whole Court voting either way. AS the de-
cision would define the Constitutional power of the
States to make these laws less than "a majority of
the whole was thought insufficient to settle such a
question: The Court finds itself now in worse
condition. Judge Mckinley continues sick, and
Judge Wayne or Judge Catron is compelled to 90
away to attend Circuit Court, which would leave
three vacancies on the Bench, instead of two, as
last year. The case was TO be argued by Senator
John Davis and Mr.. Huntington, both of Mass, for
the State--and by Mr. Webster and b. F. Hallett,
against the canstitutionahty of the law.

bingham and accusing him of disappearing his
constituents in going for Texas and the measures
of the slave party in general Not so. lie repre-
sents the voice of his constituents as expressed in
his election. Certain il Is, however, that MAORI
ty of votes were given against him upon two trials
but but-est he should fail on the last, many
hundred of the Liberty party" voted for him, or
did not take pains to vote for an opponent of an
nexation-and one of the leaders of the 3D. party
whom the Freeman has since supported for office,
went about and leased his friends to vote for Mr.
| Dillingham; or we have been misinformed by one
of the party who, thus influenced, did vote for Mr.
| ID.
True also, it is, that the Sd party could have aid
ed the Wings to elect Chander-wh had been
long and well known as an anti slavery man-but
they chose to elect Dillingham; welded to Polk and
his party schemes Texas Annexation and slavery

Indeed, the party acted just about the same as 1t
did in New York in the Presidential electon-the
card in both instances was played by the 3D. party

o. 1t is little singular while one member of
the Cabinet Mr.. Buchanan,) POUNDS claim to all
of Oregon, based upon the ancient claim of title
made by Spain, that another member (Mr. Ban
CROFT should have derided Spain's title altogether,
and conceded North America 10 England instead
of Spain. Such is the case. After establishing
the fact that the Cabots, under the English flag,
discovered America before Columbus, Mr.. Ban
croft says:
"Posterity hardly remembered this but Eng
land acquired through their energy such right to
North America as this indispuablc priority could
confer. Henry 9TH and his successors recognized
the claims of SPAN and Portugal only so far as
they actually occupied the territories to which they
laid possession; and at later day (l620) the Eng
lsh Parliament and the English Courts de1ided O
title, founded not upon occupancy but upon grant
from the Roman Pontif"- Bancrof'S His. y. s..

OREGON AND THE TARIFF.

The organ of the administration declares, in very
cautious terms, that the administration has not de-
termined to sacrifice the Tariff for Oregon-a'
least, the organ says, it has not been apprzed Of
any such determination.
The letter-writers will insist upon it, that some
further correspondence has taken place on the ques-
ton of Oregon-one even positively aflirms that an
understanding has been completed for final ar
rangement Others, again, will have it that ne
gotation is going forward upon the principle OF
conceding Oregon on the condition Of modifying
the tariff If any Of these things have taken place,
we certainly are not advised of it.
Certainly, so far as we have seen the last news
which has been brought by the Cambria, we should
suppose that the prospect of negotiation is ncreas-
ed. Union.
We are inclined to think that this is nothing but
a specimen of official qubbling. This organ the
Union,) on the 10Th ult. distinctly intimotcd that
a reduction Of the Tariff and the opening Of Amer
lean ports to British goods, ,oW influence England
to concede to our demands on Oregon; and we in
fer from its article that it is the policy of the adj
ministration to make the sacrifice of the Tariff a
part of the bargain with Great Britain. The fol-
lowing is an extract from the Union:
"a Hdr for Oregon preferred 10 a reduction Of
the T'diE-Wo think we are not mistaken IN the
belief that this is the solemn conclusion to which
the infatuated advocates of protective tariff have
now arrived Indeed, the roadinsss to embrace the
alternative of war for Oregon, sooner than by
our premeditated and independent action upon the
tariff, Great Britain should be Influenced peacefully
10 concede ,ohdt ire demand, has already been sub
etantially proclaimed. The Baltimore Patriot with
all its guarded phraseology makes the avowal to
which we have referred. That paper finds poor

A TRAGICAL AND DlsGRAcEFUL AT
FAIR AT RICHMOND, VIRGINIA.


From the Washington correspondence of the n.
Y. Tribune, we gather the following:
There is news to night Of another piece Of hu-
man butchery. The parties concerned were Mr..
Richie Of the Richmond Enquirer, a son of father
Richie of the Union, and Mr.. Hamilton Peasants,
son of the former editor of the Richmond Wing.
The cause of the aflray arose from some newspa-
per paragraphs. Several shots were made, and
then resort was had TO bowie-knives. Mr.. Pleas
ants was dreadfully wounded--one report is that
he is actually dead.
The affair has caused great excitement at
Richmond
The RICHMOND TRAoEDY.-A friend in Wash.
ington writes" II is currently reported, and be-
leve little doubt exists, that ]. IL. Peasants mot
his son,) was MORALLY wounded in the recontre
with young Richie. 1t appears the parties agreed
to start 100 yards apart aud meet with pistols, knl
YES, &C. Richie is said to have fred six times,
and Peasants four times, after which they drew
knives or sword canes Richie escaped with only
a scratch" Tribune, Feb. %. Peasants is dead.

ployed in this SERVICE the wheel suddenly started,

YOUNG ON CLARK.


The senator's character for veracity was as well
understood here as it was where he lived. And
one individual living in his neighborhood, had
told him Mr. W that he mr. C.) was regarded in
his neighborhood notorious liar.
CLARK ON YOUNG.
He is the chained tiger, biting the bars of his
cage, venting his spleen those beyond his reach,
Sir, this old man will find his portrait drawn. He
once commenced drawing parallel between Mr..
Van Buren, and De Witt Clinton, for the purpose
of determining which in his estimation was the
greatest scoundrel. When he shall have compile
ted that task, there will probably be third paral-
lei drawn, containing the services of the distin-
guished Senator himself, after which Mr.. C. had
no doubt there would be monument erected to his
memory, upon which he thought he could see in
scrbed, on the one side,
"To the memory of one, whose life embittered
ITSELF by the goadings of disappointed ambition
and unsatisfed vanity, and whose (political) death
was fastened by his passion 10 immediate Others"
And on the other, as warning to the youth Of
our land not to linger too long in contemplating
an example so unfortunate-m be inscribed,
