state RSlections-Proposed Modification OF
the New Tariff

Political matters in this part of the world are at
present rather quiet. Several State elections have
recen ly taken place, the res 1T of which, in every
instance, has been wing gain. They are, how
ever, upon local questions, and are no criterion of
the opinion Of the people upon the most import
ant matters of the day. Congress having ad-
Journed' and the members having separated and
spread over the country, we shall have no more
agtatlon until December next, when, for the
want of something better to do, we have no
doubt both houses will go to work and alter, and
possible, improve, some of the bills passed the
late session.
Hls generally understood that the new tariff will
soon alter the next Congress convenes, undergo
some notifications. There will be some import
ant alterations made in the duty upon coal and
iron, and those alterations will be in favor of an
aoditonal duty upon these articles. 1t is not al
together improbable but that duty will also be
put upon tea and coffee, for the purpose of in
creasing the revenue of the government.
In relation to an add duty upon coal
and iron, the Secretary of the Treasury will
recommend it to Congress; and there is verv
little doubt but that such alterations as he
may propose upon this point will meet the
views OF both Houses, it is generally admitted
that these articles require protection more than
any other two in the whole catalogue, and that
the new tariff will operate more injuriously upon
those interests than upon any others. There will
be, without doubt, desperate efforts made by
the IRON manufacturers of Europe to get as large
supplies IN our markets possible, so as to enter
them as soon as the new tariff goes into opera
uon, and before any alterations can be made. ne
congress does not convene until after the new
bill goes into effect

IHE CALIFORNIA ExPEDrTIoN.-We received n
gay or two since, printed slip, addressed espe-
ciai'y to us, and signed by Thomas J Sutherland.
referring to an article published in the Herald
day or two previous, in relation to the California
expedition, under COL Jonathan D. Stevenson.
The communication also contained a number of
charges against Col Stevenson, which we could
not believe for moment We read the commu-
ncation carefully, and could not see anything in
1t OF sufficient interest to the public to warrant its
insertion, and we therefore declined to publish il
1t has since appeared, in part. in some of the
papers.
The public may not be aware Of the causes of
the opposition which has attended the formation OF
the seventh regiment of United States volunteers,
under Col. Stevenson's command II lies in the
fact that number of persons, nstigated, some
by jealousy, and some by DISAPPOINTMENT in not
obtaining appointments in Col Stevenson's re gi-
ment, have used their utmost endeavors to destroy
the prospects of the expedition. Every thing,
however, has gone on prosperously. The three
ships, intended as transports to the expedition,
have been chartered, at what even the opponents
of the movement acknowledge to be reasonable
prices. They are now loading, and by the first
OF September, in all probability, will have sailed
Tor their place of destination, with body of as
fine and capable men and officers on board, as
were ever raised in our government service.
In this state of affairs, we consider it rather
small business for jealous or disappointed men to
make attempts, in which there is no possibility of
their succeeding, to destroy the prospects of an
expedition, which, if it prospers as its command
ant desires 1t should, will he of more importance
TO our country than any similar one which ever
demanded the sympathies and cooperation of our
,nterprisi1g people. In fact, we consider that
this expedition is of the utmost consequence, as
California will undoubtedly form part of basis
Of treaty with Mexico.

Ii was stated eby Mr. Dutton, the Secre-
tary of the meeting, that some twenty years
$4,000, whichwas to be left at interest till a sufh
Gent sum was accumulated for the foundation OF n
Professorship of Philosophy. The time has now
arrived, and the place is to be filled. The law
school which hitherto has been distinct, and not
connected with the College, is now to be establish
ed on permanent basis. The library OF Judge
Hitchcock has been purchased, and large contri-
buttons made which promise well for the success
of the undertaking.
One of the most important occurrences to take
place at this commencement is the election Of
President in the place of President Day, who has
rendered his resignation. The principal candl-
dates spoken of are Professors Silliman and VOL
sey, and DIR. Bacon either OF them is well quail
