FOR CONGRESS-FOURTH DISTRICT
GEORGE. B. CHANDLER.

" The Union--Polk's organ-referring to
the tariff law of the last Session, says that, as
the revenue must be increased to pay the war
expenses, the tariff must be changed as to
tax articles now free--tea, coffee, &c, of
course.
1t does not suggest the idea of increasing
protection at all-not even to please Pennsyl-
vania.
II does not even 20 in for Bcnton's plan of
raising money by direct taxation. According
to the reusonngs of locofocos tax upon tea
and coffee would be infinitely worse; then the
man worth $1,000, with ten in his family, would
pay as much tax as another with family of
ten, worth 100000
The Union developes the plan for paying the
war bills, and people can see how it is to be
paid. Is the glory worth the price:
When duties are levied upon necessaries
that we cannot produce in our own country
they become quite different in character to
duties levied to protect our own industry. By
the former mode they become more like tax,
and mpoverish the peoples but when levied
for protection the people are thereby enriched.

Mr. Polk has changed his mind again, and is
for pushing on the with a stronger force.
The administration has been veering about,ap-
parently, in its plan of operations for some
weeks, but at last has concluded TO call out
more volunteers. The regiments called for
cover force of from $500 to 5000 men, There
can be no mistake of the fact, that the admin
istration is greatly embarrassed by the position
ofthe war with Mexico. Our army at Monte
rev is in bad situation--to go on 10000 or
more troops, are needed, and with that number
success must be uncertain; and 10 attack
the country in any other vital point ff-
teen thousand more troops must be rails
ed Mr. Polk has found the conquest of
Me xico dearer affair than he expected

The VoLUNTEERs. Efforts TO increase the
Naval force in the Gulf of Mexico by the en-
listment of volunteers for that service last sum
mer, were not very successful, according to the
papers. And it may be matter ofsome doubt
we think, about the readiness of 5000 of our
people to answer the new call for the field SER
vice. When the war opened there was a good
deal of zeal for active service, but the speci-
mems of service endured already by such as
have been into Mexico, and their anxiety 10
get home again, will not at all tend to encour-
age others to follow in their footsteps. Many
talk loud of willingness to volunteer, but to
do it, is quite another thing. However, the
work is commenced as will be seen by the fol-
lowing fiom the New York Tribune
"VoLUNTEERs. Rolls now open at La
fayette Hall for the enlistment of volunteers
for the Col. WIN. w. ToMPKINs' regiment of
Infantry. The Officers have been selected,
and are undergoing daily drills with spirit, and
the men will also be put under instruction
forthwith, and held in readiness for service at
the seat ofWar, where there is likely soon to
be demand for them ITO stop bullets, fill
trenches, dull sabres, &c. A bayonet push in
the intestines may very likely be had for four
or five shillings; grape shot in the ANGLE for
a mere bagatelle musket-ball through the
head for nothing to speak of-cheap as dirt
the whole of them. Why don't everybody run
to enlist'1 Col, Tompkins is a good officer,
who has seen service"

IPThe Free Press says-"The votes of the
Third Party, ''ratherfeH off" at the late cleo
tons in ~ York and Massachusetts--esp eci-
ally in the latter. So far as we have returns
the decrease is decisive in every county, while
the Wing vote is largely increased What
can be the reason ~
GANswER-The people see that the Wing
party north is true to Liberty, and the only
party that has the power and disposition too to
stay the encroachments ofthe slave power, and
to uproot the slave system so far as any power
in the free States can reach it. This is true, 81
hence many discerning anti-slavery men act
with and look to the Wing party for the ac-
complishment of all the practicable ends they
have in view. There will not be found in
Congress, hereafter, northern Wing to as
Sc mt to the increase of slavery one iota, one
who will not vote to overthrow it wherever
the National Legislature has power over it.
This is lust as much as our "Liberty Party
men could do ifin power: therefore we aver the
undsputabe fact that the Wing party north is
the true or better Liberty Party, for it has pow
err and is disposed to use it, and that to vote for
the Sd party is only to weaken the Wing party
and in effect TO throw away votes-and James
K. Polk counts them for slavery as he counted
the votes for Birney in his Inaugural Address
as being in farOr Of the annexation Of TerdS.l

given for members of Congress in the State of
Maine, at the recent election, shows a MAORI
~ against the Polk candidates of s549! Yet
two locos and one wing were elected.
The trial last week TO elect Representatives
so far as we have returns, leaves the state of
parties as follows:-Whig, 60; Polkites, 65; not
heard from, 3; failed to elect, Ia districts or
towns. 1t will be "close fit" in Maine, but
the Wings will come off the victors if they do
their duty.
