"RESTORATIoNp is THE WORD.

The letter Of Mr.. Clayton addressed on Saturday
last to the federal meeting Of Wilmington, in Della
ware, and the oracular revelations Of Mr.. Clay
from Ashland, and the repeal cry Of Mr.. Webster
show that the restoration Of the obnoxious tariff oil
1912 Is to be the policy Of the federal party. We
pass over the circumstances under which that tariff
passed-its being voted for at the time by some
senators who Rvowed that they did SO under the dire
ful alternative Of passing some revenue law, or hsy-
ing at all, and reservng 10 themselves the right
Of changing it at some future PERIOD and Of its be-
ing so obnoxiou that some Of the iederalisls re-
fused to vote for it at ALL Is il not strange, there.
FORE that the federal party through three of its lead
ers should insist upon its restoration. But there Is
one moral which is taught by the policy thus avowed
Why should any Of our friends in Pennsylvania In

the act are ayerse to its modification before il has
been fairly tried Here are the federas,s also OPP
posed to modification. They 60 for its repeal and
the restoration Of the act Of 1912. Why, then, at

act Of 1886 furnish adequate protscton' Is il ne
cessary even for iron for eOal-when coal has adj
vanced in Richmond, and anthracite in New York
and when new iron works are estahlished-in the
west, and elSewhere;-and when, from the most au-
thentic accounts we receive from England, 50 many
railroads about to he laid down, to require the
greater proportion OF the iron which will be made in
England and in Wales. Our intelligent correspond
ent from Europe eorroborates this position in the
following extract from one Of his last letters just re-
ceived by the Britannia:
"The Scotch iron manufactures are in the highest
state Of prosperity Of any in the United Kingdom;
and the last quotations at Glasgow efl pig No. al
rs shillIngs per ton-equal to sl5-with u steady
demand. Now, under the 80 per cent duty of the
tariff the article would cost in ports s23 40
without freight and charges, to say nothing Of prof
its. From the statement which furnished you 10
my last il is plain to perceive that the demand and
the consequent price, is much more certain to in
than decline; and the face of such facs
it's strange that party should have the temerty-
aude only to the prolseonisis Of the Bentinck and
D'lsraeli order-to endeavor to persuade Pennsy ~
vana and other iron-producng Stnles that they have
been RUINED by the repeal Of the act of 1892"

NICE CALCULATION

We comply with the request of the "Worcestel
Palladium" by republishing its own article. Mr.
Davis has given a curious explanation. 1t con.
firms the old sryng Of nuns being ''more nice
than wise" He is a nice calculator of minutes.
But taking his own explanation of the fact, we
should suppose he might have allowed more than
ten minutes to wind up the important business of the
Senate. We suggest that new join, committee be
appon ted by Congress- called committee Of clocks,
to see that the clocks Of both houses are well regu-
lated, and at all events, that they be made to har-
monizc together, to avoid all such accidents for the
future:
"SENAToR DAVIS AND THE TWO MILLION BILL
The senator made speech to the wings Of this
town, Saturday evening, in which he explained his
upon the peace bill of the last day of the late
session of Congress. He has been much censured
the country over, for speaking against time, and
thus defeating the measure. 1t appears how
ever from the senator's explanation, that the fault
lies not with him, but with the officers of Congress
He says he fully intended to give the Senate time to
vote upon the bill; and should have done So had not
the clock in the Senate chamber been eight minute
behind the clock in the House. Owing to this diff
ference in the two clocks the session Of the House
was brought to close when the Senate, by their
own time-piece, had eight minutes left to them.
'lt is not a little remarkable that this explanation
has not been givea at earlier day. The time
keepers of the two houses ought to guard against
such accidents in future. Will the Washington
Union call their attention to the subject'''

The opinion expressed by Lieut. Maury, on the
night of its discovery, October 49, that the new
planet LIE Verrier is surrounded by a ring, appear,
to be confirmed by observations in England with 9
twenty-four inch reflector. We understand that tn.
weather has been exceedingly unfavorable here fol
astronomical observations, Though the planet has
been observed regularly every night when the wealth
err permitted, the haze of Indian summer or other
atmosphercal conditions, have been unfavorable to
the physic examinations with the large refractol
Of the Observatory.

New rARIrr.-Yes,erday an adjourned meeting
on the subject of the proposed tariff, was held a
Faneuil Hall, Hon. William Gray, chairman, and
William Foster, esq, secretary.
A long and interesting report was read from the
| respectable committee appointed at n former meet
ing, which concluded with the following resolves:
Resolved That we have regarded with pleasure
the establishment and success Of manufactures
among us, and consider their growth, when natural
and spontaneous and not The effect ola system of boun
ties and protection, as an evidence of general wealth
and prosperity.
Resolved, That, relying on the ingenuity, enter
prise, and skill ofour feow-ctzens we believe that
all manufactures adapted to our character and cir
cumstances will be introduced and extended as soon
and as far, will promote the public interests with
out any further protection than they now receive.
Resolved, That no objection ought ever to be
made to any amount Of taxes equally apportioned
and imposed fer the purpose Of raising revenue
cessary for the support Of government; but that
ares imposed the people for the sole benefit of anu
pies Of our constitution and ioih sound policy
Resolved, That the supposition that, until the pro.
posed tariff, or some similar measure, be adopted
we are and shall be- dependent on foreigners for the
means Of subsistence and defence, s, in our opinion
altogether allacious and fanciu, and derogaory to
the character Of the nation. . . .... ..
Resolved, That the high bounties on such domes-
TIC manufactures as are prinoipay benehted by that
tariff favor great capitalists rather than personal indus
try or the o,oner, Of small capital, and that therefore,
zoe do not perceive is tendency TO promote national in
dustry.
Resolved, That we are equally incapable of dis
covering its beneficial effects on agriculture since
the obvious consequence Of its adoption would be,
that the farmer must giue than he noo does for ali
he buys, and receive less for all he sells.
Rssoiped, That the i'm position of duties which are
enormous, ard deemed by large portion Of the
people to be unequal and unjust, is dangerous, as il
encourages the practice Of smuggling.
Resolved That, in our opinion, the proposed tar

things belong tho true views Of just government
and free government, and then he may be allowed
to maintain with at least some plausible appearances
