SIXTEEN DAYS LATER FROM
EUROPE.

BosToN, April 2l.--The steamship Gale
donia, Captain Lott, arrived at East Boston,
at II O'Clock. having been lelegraphed at 9,
A. NJ. As she was going into the slip, in
consequence Of running little too far on one
side, she grounded, so that to avoid the delay
of getting into dock, the ferry boat came
alongside and took of her passengers and
mail. She brought from Liverpool 1Ol pas
sengers, of whom 26 were left al Halifax,
and IL were taken on board at that place.
The Caledonia has made her passage in a
little less than sixteen DAYS. We have re.
ceived by her our files OF London papers to

engineer, iorrnpers IN anticipation of the de-

The news is not particularly Important
The attempt at revolution by the Poles, as
was anticipated from the beginning, has
proved a failure, and it was in a great meas.
ure suppressed. 1t was doubtless the result
o! conccr, considerably extended, but the
actual movements have been good deal ex-
aggeraled.
An overland mail from India has arrived
bringing advices from Bombay to March 3,
which appears in the London papers on the

and 81 pieces of artillery. The loss of the
British was 2 1888 officers and men killed and
wounded, including among The former the
veteran and gallant Major General Sir r.
Dick, two Lieutenant Colonies, two Cap
tains, and nine Lieulenants.
BY an earlier arrival, March "a, news was
received of another battle fought at Aliwal,
on the SuileJ, by the English forces under
Sir II. ]. Smith. The Sikhs were defeated
with the loss of 60 pieces of cannon. The
/ British loss was 400 in killed and wounded

FRIDAY MORNING, APRIL "a, 1916.
THE TARIFF.

The American people have now before
them the real intentions of Mr. Folks admin
is,ralion towards The manufacturing and IN
dustr'al interests of the county and they can
now judge how truly they were admnnshed
that the election of James X. Polk was To be
the signal for, and the means "f, DESTROYING
the tariff Of 1912, by which our nation was
recaining what she had once lost hv the mis-.
cradle interference of the government with
the currency of the nation. Aside from the
diffusion of wealth. there is evidence all
around us Of the increased and increas ing
prosperity of the country. Every month that
the tariff is allowed 10 operate, sees the ma
lion gathering new force and becoming self
poised. But what avaielh this with the archi-
,ecls of ruin The simple fact of our pros
perily is sufficient reason with the slaveocra.
cy for crusade upon the policy which gives
10 free labor the benefits Of its 0pn market.
Measures have been taken to spread before
Congress such proofs OF the efficacy Of the
manufacturing system as can be gathered,
but it behooves those who would stand by the
country and its true independence, to make
a strong demonstration Of the efficacy Of the
tariff, vote only in giving aid 10 the funds Of
the nation, but in securing gradual improve
ment in our manufactures which will enable
them ultimately TO compete with the world
We fear the country is not awake to the i'm.
portance of the crisis.

THE NOTICE.

TO TERMINATE THE OREGON CONVENTION.
The long pending debate ON the question
Of giving notice for the termination of the
convention with Great Britain, under which
the Oregon territory remains free and open
to the citizens and subjects of both powers,
was brought TO "A close in the Senate on
Thursday last, by decisive vote Of 40 to
II. BY tins vote a resolution was adopted
which authorizes the President to give such
notice, as by the terms Of the convention will
annul it, on the expiration Of twelve months.
The resolution SO adopted is based on that
which was passed by the House of RePrescn-
ta,ives, on the 9th Of February, after debate
of equal duration with that which has occur
red in the Senate, but entirely changed in
its form. 1t must therefore 60 back TO the
House for its concurrence in the amendment.
This concurrence, as the change is not very
material in substance, will probably be OBJ.
tanned.
The resolution, while it authorizes the
President to give the notice, properly leaves
i, to his discretion 10 give il or not, as he may
Judge expedient, and leaves the responsible.

At very late day, and at very remarkable
junciurc, the Democratic Legislature of the good
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania have apparent
w. fnr the first time, opened their eyes To the fact
that President Polk is not friend To the Tariff OF

great and influential State attempting to account
for the manner IN which they came to the deep
rooted conviction that, although Henry Clay was
possibly IN favor OF Tariff, such that of ~,
Yet James X. Polk went far beyond him in the
ardor, sincerity and zeal of his OVERLOOKING at
tachmen, to that measure. They can testify 10
