Ertract Of letter from .Ns,c York, July 81
1876, to member Of Congress

II congratulate you upon the pas
sage OF the new tariff bill The OPP
position to it, and the outcry against
Mr.. Dallas, from Pennsylvania, arises
from a few interested manufacturers
and their dependents, who would sac
rifce the public good to their own ag-
grandisements. They can't bear to
be deprived ot'he bonus or gratuiiy of
$75, GOO, GOO which they receive from
the pockets of other people. What a
shame ii would have oeen, after being
such stlcklers for free tradenand con
demning the selfish policy of Grea,
Britain for shutting her ports heretofore
against the introduction of our bread
stuffs, now that she has shown a most
liberal spirit, and has meet US more than
halfway, upon tina implied faith that
our new tariff would pass, and thus
give effect 10 the recommendation of
the Executive, to have rejected that
proposed measure.
"Never fear; after the act has gone
into operation for year or so, and
it runs as smoothly as well polished
machinery, you will hear nothing more
against it; but the public mind, after a
little agitation, will, as usual, settle
down in state of quietude and con-
tent.
"Mr. Dallas will hereafter be hailed
as a benefactor and true patsiot-by
the very men who now denounce him
for not building up his fame upon his
country's ruin.
"To complete the system | would
pass an act forthwith levying a duty

used mostly by the rich, or people who
can well afford to pay it; and as we
want additional revenue, nothing can
be made so subservient 10 this measure
as these luxuries. | am, for one, also
wiling that duty of about three
cents bushel should be levied on

The largest yield which we have vet
heard of, has been about six bushels
to one Of seeding, while in many cases
not three have been realized. This is
certainly greater failure than We have
known before. We hear that the same
deficiency prevails on the Eastern
Shore, and in the upper counties of the
State. In the latter, a fair crop was at
one time anticipated, out the .turn out"
has proved that very small average
crop will be raised. We do not know
what may be the case IN other States,
but as to MARYLAND, it is now certain
that one half ola crop cannot be raised;

Tariff had begun its work of "ruin."
The wages ofoperatives were reduced.
and instantly the panic-makers raised

.Arrest Of Mdnappers in South Car
olina.-We were shown an extract of a
letter, received in this city yesterday
/ from Cheraw, S. c., which states
that considerable excitement prevails
in that place, in consequence of a man
named Dorsey, alias Carlisle, who had
been arrested and put in durance vile,
confessing to number of respectable
citizens that he was cognizant of the
facts. that plot had been laid for
stealing or entlslng away negroes from
their masters; that it extended from.
Virginia to Texas, and that some OF
most respectable citizens were engag-
gea in il. He further stated, that
he had an engagement to meet one OF
/ the members the following night at
Marlboro, and that those who doubted
his revelations might accompany him,
and satisfy themselves. A number
did so, (irst painting themselves
black and permitted Dorsey to pass
them off as rescued slaves. They sub
sequeptly rallied in body, and cap
.ured the kidnapper, whose name is
Weatberly. He was committed TO
iall at Marlboro, and Dorsey at Ches-
terfeld. Another one was arrested at
Darlington. An intense excitement
prevails in the neighborhood. = CLIP

u. STATES AND MEXICO.

Yesterdays Intelligencer contains the
Message of the President to the
Senate, on the 4th August, and the
proceedings of the Senate thereon,
from which the injunction of secresy
has been removed, in relation to Mex
leo. The president communicates a
letter from the Secretary of State to
the Minister of Foreign Relations Of
Mexico, again proposing to open nego-
tiatlons anc conclude treaty of peace,
which shall adjust all the questions in
disput between the two Republics. He
says:
"Considering the relative power of
the two countries, the glorious events
which have already signalized our
arms, and the distracted condition of
Mexico, | did not conceive that any
point of national honor could exist
which ought to prevent me from max
ing this overture. Equally anxious
to terminate, by peace honorable for
both parties, as was originally to a.
void the existing war, have deemed
it my duty again to extend the olive
branch to Mexico. Should the Gov
eminent of that Republic accept the
offer in the same friendly spirit by
which ii was dictated negotiations will
speedily commence for the conclusion
of a treaty."
He, then, suggests that Congress
ought to appropriate sum, adequate
10 pay Mexico a fair equivalent for any
territory she may cede.
The letter Of Mr.. Buchanan to Com.
Conner on the 9th July, enclosing
the letter for the Mexican Minister,
requests him, in case the Mexican
Government should determine to ac-
cept the offer and enter upon negotia-
tons, and should propose an armist;ce
during their tendency, to promptly
but kindly reject it,'' as the two par
ties would not stand on an equal foot
ing.
"Whilst, therefore, the President
sincerely desires with the utmost
promptitude to restore our friendly re-
Iations with Mexico upon fair and lib
eral terms, the war must continue to
be prosecuted with the utmost vigor
until a defensive treaty of peace shall
be signed and ratified by Mexi-
co.
"You will not fail, with all the des-
patch in your power, to transmit the
answer of the Mexican government to
this Department"
The following resolutions were adop-
ted BY the Senate, after many motions
TO amend, &c.
/. Resolued, That the Senate en-
testain strong desire that the exis-
ting was with Mexico should be ter
minated by a Treaty ofPeace, just and
honorable to both nations; and that the
kPresidentbe advised to adopt all proper
measures for the attainment of that OBJ.

2. Resolved, further, That the Sen
ate deem it advisable that Congress
should appropriate sum of money TO
enable the President to conclude a
Treaty Of Peace, limits and boundaries

Deficiency in the Wheat crop Of Ma
rpla,ld. The farmers in this and the
adjoining counties are now, and have
been for several weeks past engaged
in thresEing out their grain. We have
received accounts from very many Of
them, and all confirm the impression
which had very generally prevailed,
that half crop would not be realized.

The License Question in Ne,u YORK;.
A vote was recently taken upon this
question in the State Of New York the
result of which shows that public opin-
ion is fast ripening upon this question.
Several States have annulled, by the
popular voice, the law granting licen-
ses to traffic in spirituous liquors in
small quantities. In N. Y. there are
81 counties, So of which have been
heard from, in which the vote stood
for licenses, 1913 towns; against licen
ses, COB. Majority against granting
licenses, Ats towns. The law pro-
hlbits any tavern-keeper or mannfactu-
rer ofardent spirits from selling less
quantity than FIVE gallons at once to
the same individual. Since the en-.
actment of this Jaw, several tavern
keepers have been arraigned and fined
for violating it

II is thought that Messrs. Blair and
Rives viii revive the "GIobe" before a
great while. Two good Democratic
papers at the seat Of government would
certainly not be too many to advocate
and sustain The great principles Of the
party, and particularly at the present
crisis. And what two men, in the
whole nation, are more able to sustain
those principles, and retain the conf
dence Of the party, than Thomas R1r-
CHE and Francis P. BLAIR' We
hope, therefore, without any design Of
disparaging the "Union,'' that the old
"Globe" may be revived BY its former
powerful conductors.

e. A new Democratic paper will
be published in Richmond, to commence
about the first September next, to be
conducted by C. T. Bolts, r. W..
Hughes, and J. R. Lewellen. The
prospectus can be>een by calling at
this office. The metropolis of the
state furnishes three ably conducted,
and, we suppose, we'll sustained Wing
papers, viz: The Wing, the Times,
and the Republican. Surely the Re-
publican party in the State are able, if
they are willing, to support two res
pectable papers in Richmond. We
wish the standard success. If we can
make ii convenient to do so, we in
tend to insert their prospectus agreea-
bly, to the request ofthe publishers.

Who does not love 10 gaze above,
When heavens vault Of blue,
Is lighted high tho starlight by,
All glorious to vicwl
The lucid air all glorious there
With star-bespangled light
How placid seems each ray that beams
Upon the silent night!
Through all the night their twinklingl ight
Comes cleaning from afar:
With constant glow, TO us below,
How beautiful they are!
Gods coronet with jewels set,-
So seems the SKY above,
IA gently shine those gems divine,
Like beamings of his love.
How full of grace must be the face
OF him who lighted them
And made each one a glowing sun
To deck his diadem!
How great his mind who has designed
And formed those star-lights grand,
And thus displays to mortal gaze
Creations Of his hand
When moi n sound is heard around
Beneath the heavens broad,
Who can survey his grand array,
And say "there is no God"l
Who can explore the nigh,-sky DER,
And not on Him r%eflcci,
Who was ere man his course began,
Its Mighty Architect!
Who does not feel upon him steal
A sense Of the Divine
When from afar he views each star
With placid lustre shinel
Oh surely he must blinded be
BY darkness most intense,
Who meier admires those sunny fires,
Nor draws delight from thence!
