We are rather inclined to the opinion that
fthis individual regards his personal health
and safety, it will be better for him not to Wis

The way his name is made use ofthcre-es-
pccially by the presses and the men ofhis own
party-should operate as caution TO him.

MORE ABOUT DALLAS. The following ar

another strong and decided Loco Foco paper,
published in Philadelphia
THE TARIFF BILL PASSED THE SEN
ATE-PENNSYLNANIA DECEIVED
The news ofthe passage of the Tariff Bill,
by the Senate, was received in this city, by
Telegraph, yesterday afternoon, and caused
the most intense excitement. There was but
one burst of Indignation, that Pennsylvania
had been grossly deceived, and that her best
interests had been FRUSTRATED, too, by the vote
of George Mitflin Dallas, one Other own sons
whom she has fostered and cherished for
ycars-nnd who she had n right 70 expect
would stand by her. in the hour of trial.
MIR Dallas has thrown the weight of his in
fucnce into the Southern scale, against his
native State. We are sorry that we have to
record this deed ofdeep ingratitude TO the old
Key stone State. If Mr. Dallas had, by the
remotest hint, given the people of Pernsylva-
MIA, in the Campaign of 1914, to believe that
he would 20 with the South, for Southern
Tariff, he would not have been elected Vice
President.
