THE TARIFF.

It seems that the Locofocos have committed the
Tariff TO the tender mercies of the Secretary OF
the Treasury, who is to furnish the Committee Of
Ways and Means with bill. One may easily
guess what the bill will be- and how it will operate
The doctrine of the majority of the Committee
of Ways and Means of the last Congress, and OF
Secretary Walker and the present Committee is
"that no duty be imposed on any article ABOVE the
eocest rate which will yield the largest amount Of
nepenue" 1t follows therefore, |, that all prohibo-
rv duties will be abolished: if there is any article
of American production which requires this kind OF
duties, it must cease and give place to the foreign
articlo and q that all protective duties must be
abolished that is, in every case where large I'M
,,ortntions of any article at Iow duty will produce
more revenue than small importations at high du-
w. the rule is to take the foreign articles in the
largest quantity at the lowest duy of course, with
every article which needs the protection OF high
duty, the country will be supplied by foreigners
aud the same article produced by American labor
will be excluded.
But this is not the worst result Of this Locoiocc
scheme. Suppose, for instance, that under toler-
ably high revenue duty on wool and woolens, there
is strike for higher wages by the loborers OF Eng
land SO as to bring up the prices OF British cloths
or from any cause the price of foreign wool is rais
ed beyond the price which can be sustained in this
country. The effects will be n reduction OF the
impcrtations of the foreign article and a falling of
of the revenue: and then, in order to increase the
revenue under this Locofoco rule, the duty on WOO
and woolens must be reduced so to admit foreign
wool and woolens at cost just below our own
Perhaps our own producers will then reduce prices
in order to secure own markets: at once the arm
of our Government is raised, and whack comes the
blow which reduces the duties still farther; agar
our producers give way to lower price-bu again
too, the Government reduces the duty and so the
grand result u.s. that american wool-gro,rers and IL
nerican manufacturers must euer be kept al The star
ping point in order 10 encourage The impcrtations
foreign cool and foreign cloths! What is this, bu
the protection and encouragement OF foreign pro
l,utions at the expense of our oCn?
The system is an outrage upon the rights of ev
erv American citizen. He has rigLtto demand
protection to his own interests at the hands of hi
own government; and if it would do any good, the
whole land ought to ring with protests against Thu
cold-booded sacrifice of American industry ant
capital. But we know of no way to reach the ear
of the powers that be, except it is for the cheate
and deluded democrats of the North and tn
West to renounce allegiance to their leaders, an
honestly act out the principles which they proesse
in the last Presidential campaign. Polk and Walk
er probably will esteem tbe uoies of treemen at
higher rate than they dotheir right to the protec
ton of the Government

The Washington correspondent of the New.

"a bold attempt is now being made by some Lo-

poses to sustain Mr. Polk in his conduct on the Or
egon affair. If the Locofocos are opposed to a
compromise on the 10th degree of N. l.. why not
hold mass meetings over the country and denounce
Mr. Polk for offering it? Why denounce Mr.. Cal
houn and laud Mr.. Polk for supporting the very
same proposition If there is any reason for ma
king this distinction, it must be because Mr.. Polk
has offices in his gift, and Mr.. Calhoun has none of
that cohesive power to bestow, which every body
believes holds the party together and binds its mem
bers to their leaders,"
