THE NATIONAL FAIR AND THE
TARIFF.

Messrs. ED1ToRs: | see, in the last
"Union," that a writer { | presume their
usual correspondent, the British agent
now in the CapitoD complains, not that
the goods exhibiting at the National
Fair" are TOO high, but TOO lo0. He
says that they cannot be sold for the
prices marked, and invites them out.
Let them come on, and this Manchester
man with them, and the manufacturers,
| venture to predict, will not only fill
all their orders but thank them for their
custom. But this writer inquiries, when
the American manufacturers can sup
ply goods at slower prices" than for
eigners, why tar the consumer by the
tariff? Tar the consumer. How! by
giving them goods al slow prices.

"KATE OF ABERDEEN.n

The silver Moons enamor'd beam.
Steals softly through the night,
To wanton with the winding stream,
And kiss reflected light.
To heads Of state, 60, balmy sleep,
CTS where you've seldom been,)
Mays vigil while The shepherds keep,
With Kate of Aberdeen.
Upon the green the virgins wait,
In rosy chaplet gay,
Till morn unbars her golden gate,
And gives the promised May.
Methinks hear the maids declare,
The promised May, when seen,
Not half so fragrant, not half SO fair
AS Kate from Aberdeen.
Strike up the tabor's boldest notes
Well rouse the nodding grove;
The nested birds shall raise their
Threats,
And hail the maid Of love.
And see! the matin lark mistakes:
He quits the tufted green,
oHu piFu' 10 ioI tIe morning
breaks,
'Tis Kate OF Aberdeen!
Now lightsome Ger the level mead,
Where midnight fairies rove,
Like them, the jocund dance we'll
lead,
Or tune the reed TO love,
For see! the rosy May draw nigh;
She claims virgin queen;
And bark! the happy shepherds. cry.
This Kate Of Aberdeen.

MISTAKEN IN THE PERSONAL Incl

short time since, which created a good
laugh, and the complete discontinue Of

Virginia was introduced upon the floor,

his seat outside the bar, among the pri-

THE WING PARTY.-Nevcr were we
prouder OF this glorious old party than
at the present crisis. We have stood
by it in many a hopeless contest, and in
one glorious triumph, against the min

felt such deep, satisfaction and eleva-
ted sense Of its devotion TO the honor Of
the country We have seen ii derlded
and scofled at we have looked on in
unutterable pain at the malignant pro-

proud genius and splendid talents OF

in a strange land,--toreigners, among
their brethren, and in the midst Of the
fruits won for them by the blood and
treasures oftheir proud wing ancestry.
| And we have felt that this exclusion
from fair participation in the trusts
and honors of this inheritance and es

THE BEAUTIFUL LAND.
By Thomas Mackellar.

There is a land immortal,
The beautiful of lands;
Beside its ancient portal
A sentry grimly stands.
He onI Y can undo it,
And open wide the the door,
And morials who pass through it,
Are mortals never more.
That glorious land is Heaven,
And Death the sentry grim;
The Lord thereof has given
The opening keys 10 him.
And ramsomed spirits signing,
And sorrowful for sin,
Do pass the gate in dying,
And freely enter in.
Tho dark and drear the passage
That leadeth TO the gate,
Yet grace comes with the message,
To souls that watch and wait;
And at the time appointed
A messenger comes down,
And leads the Lord anointed
From cross 10 glory's crown.
Their signs are lost in singing,
They're blessed in their tears:
Their journey heavenward wingine
They leave on earth their fears.
Death like an angel seemeth;
ave welcome thee" we cry;
Their face with glory beamelh;
lis life for them 10 die

This is strange taxation, but 1t IS the
way the protective policy always has
and always will tao the people, by CIV
ing them goods cheaper and cheaper as
capital is invested, skill acquired, and
supply increased. Repeal the tariff,
check American competition, &c: goods
from abroad as formerly, and these
Manchester men will soon put up their
prices to former rates and make their
fortunes at one expense; and this is just
what they so ardentIy:desire to accom-
plish by breaking down our tariff. Will
an American Congress crafty them!
We shall soon see.
But the ''Union" man inquiries, if we
can manufacture as cheap as foreigners,
why keep on the tariff? And ask him,
if the tariff has, by inducing investments
and increasing supply, reduced prices
TO one-third and one fourth Of what they
were before, why repeal it, and thus

petition, and still further reductions OF
price? Answer this.
But, says this British advocate, these
manufacturers are realizing profits OF
:. from 80 to 100 per cent So much the
better, if, as he says, they are giving
US the goods cheaper than they can be
made abroad. For it is clear if they
are realizing such profits, capital, al
ways watching for the best employment
will soon rush into this profitable busi
ness so fast, and increase supply, tina
the prices will be so reduced that th'
profits will soon come down to the or
binary rates Of 6 or 7 per cent. Re
peal the protective tariff, and you checI
all further investments and secure
monopoly to the invested capital. Con
tinue or increase the tariff, and you in
crease investments and competition, dc
stroy monopoly, and still more an
more reduce prices by still more an
more increasing supply, skill, and eA
perience. Then we 90 for the tariff, t
promote competition, destroy monopI.
reduce prices, and thus benefit the col
sumers, whilst we increase the wage
Of labor by increasing the. demand ft
it, and at the same time increase II

Thus these anti-tariff' agitators al
