DEMOCRATIC TARIFF MEETING IN PHILADEL-
PHIA. The democrats of Philadelphia held a
town meeting at the Chinese Saloon, on Sat
urday evening, to protest against reduction
of the tariff. Hon. Calvin Blythe, presided,
assisted by large number of Vice Presidents.
A series of resolutions denouncing McKay's bill
were unanimously adopted. We copy two of
them:
Resolved, That this meeting looks with
amazement upon the folly of this second at
tempt to infiict system of low duties upon our
country, when we remember that under 20 per
cent. duty we were unable TO meet the annual
expenses of government by about $4,000, 900
per annum; while under the present tariff we
have not only been able to detray the expenses
of government, but have, in addition, paid off
about $40 100000 of National debt. Even the
English themselves have acknowledged the poll
icy of our having judicous tariff, which is
rendered pable from the fact, that when we
had tariff Of 90 per cent, not dollar could
be borrowed of them even at per cent. inter-
est, while under the tariff of 42 they have been
begging us to accept their money at per cent
Resolved, That we protest against the pres
ent Tariff Bill before the Senate, because it as
sails every species OF industry IN the country,
and bases its alleged advantages on the increas-
ed amount offoreign manufactured articles that
it is supposed it will bring into this country
which increased importation can have no other
effect than to. send our money abroad, instead
ofpurchasing at home from our own working
people. The Mckay Bill strikes directly at
the prosperity ofth tailor, the shoemaker, the
paper maker, the bookbnder, the ship carpen-
ter, the weaver, the spinner, the printers of
cotton, the halter, the black and white smith,,
the machinist, the glass-blower, and host of
other occupations too tedious to enunerate,
down to the children in the factories, and even
to the unprotected and most generally widowed
or parentless seamstress, who labors necessarily
for pittance that is now scarcely sufficient to
keep body and soul together-nor does it stop
here in its course of devastation. The thous-
ands and tens of thousands of our industrious
fellow citizens engaged in our coal mines, our
furnaces, FORCES, rolling mills, foundries, ma
chine shops, sc. &c., as we'll as the immense
body of persons engaged in transporting our
coal, iron, and other productions will be mate
rally injured, thrown out of employment, and
thus the ruin will extend, until it reaches all
classes and conditions of our citizens, except
probably, the office-holders,) and overwhelm us
in wretchedness and restitution.

DEARLY LOVE ONE LITTLE SPOT.
dearly love one little spot,
My heart-strings round it cling,
IT'S mingled with the memories

OF days. when all the world seem'd bright
And beautiful and gay
Alas! that all my childhood's dreams
Should thus have pass'd away!

And even now il lies,
A sunny speck amid the gloom,
Before my dreaming eyes!
Oh! wildly the time comes back
When there we often met
And are they gone, who met me there?

dearly love that little spot,
And the sweet fountain near,
Where was wont to battle my brow
Within its branches clear;
And loved to fancy that my lot
Would be like that still pool,
That lay amid the forest trees
Hidden, and calm, and cool
learned to love gentle girl
Down by that fountains side;
All! memories of my hearts first life
Come DER me like tide!
My days have been full sad since then,
But in despite of care,
Within my heart her image rests,
Fresh as that fountain therel

The Foor RACE AT WASHINGTON. a
hurdle foot race came off over the National
Race Course, at Washington, on Friday. The
runners were Messrs Seward, Jackson, and
Bannister, of Northern celebrity, and two In
dians, Tscheaon and Biskhannockt, from Cali
fornia and Mexico. The National Intelligent
Ger says the parties were to jump fifty hurdles
three feet high, which were placed on the grass
inside the track of the course, thus making the
distance to be run little short of mile. The
first heat was accomplished in 5 minutes as
seconds, and the runners came to the Judges
stand as follows: Seward first, Tschaeon second,
Jackson third, Biskhannockt fourth, Bannister
fifth. The time of the second heat was min
utes 5s seconds: Seward again in the lead, and
so winning the race. Jackson came in second
and Tscheaon and Bannister together-tht
other Indian not running. The Indians had ;
start of twenty-five yards, and run well, bu
were very poor jumpers. Tscheaon had tn,
lead in the second heat, but fell and lost abou
hundred yards.

RUMoRs FROM WAsHINGTON. We have re-
ceived rumor from Washington, says the
Philadelphia Inquirer, that Senator Haywood
is about to resign, to avoid voting on the Ia
riff. Also, that another democratic Senator has
! resolved not to vote on the bill, unless a Sec
ton be added, providing that it shall not take
effect until the Sd of March next, so that the
whole of the next session be allowed for modi-
fications. All these reports, however, should
be received with caution.

sler over the waves, Lnen plunge again TO the
fathoml less bottom. Amid this wreck and these
sights, the ark sailed on in safety. How often
in imagination have pictured it in the deluge
at midnight To spectator what an object of
interest it would have been. Round the wide
earth the light from its solitary windows was
the only indication of life that remained. One
moment it would be seen far up on the crest of
the billow, mere speck of flame amid the linn
itless darkness that enVironed it, and then dis
appear in the CULTS below as if extinguished for
ever. Thus that gentle light would sink and
rise on the breast of the deluge, the last, the
only hope of the human race. Helmless, and
apparently guideless, its wreck seemed ineVita-
BILE, but the sea never rolled that could extin-
gush that star-like beam that told where the
ark sill foated. Not even tho strong wind
that the Almighty sent over the water to dry it
up, driving 1t into pillows that stormed the hea-
vens, could sink it. Though it shook like
reed in their strong grasp, and tioundered
through the deep CULTS, it passed unerrlngly on
to the summit of that mountains on which it
was to rest; and at length struck ground and
ceased its turbulent motion. Noah waited q
week, and then sent forth raven to explore
the deep. Though the waters still swept from
mountain to mountain, the myriad carcases
that floated on the surface furnished both food
and resting place, and he returned no more
He then sent forth dove. 1t darted away from
the place of its long confinement, and sped on
rapid wing over the flood, now turning this way
and now that looking in vain with its gentle
eye for the green earth, and at last turned back
towards the ark of rest. The tap of its snowy
wing was heard On the window, and the Patri-
arch reached forth his hand and took it in. The
fierce paintings of its notified breast, and its
dropping pinions, told too well that the earth
gave no place of repose. But the second time
it was sent abroad it returned with an olive leaf
in its mouth, showing that the earth had risen
from its burial and was sprouting again in YER
dure. Then the patriarch went forth with his
family and stood on Mount Ararat, and 10, the
earth was at his feet, but how changed. Cut
into gorges which showed where the strong
currents swept, and piled into ridges, it bore in
every part marks of the power that had ravag-
ed it. Noah and his family were alone in the
world, and he built an altar there on the
top of the solitary mountain, and lifted his
voice in prayer, aud the Almighty talked with
him as "frend talketh with friend" bidding
him go forth and occupy the earth. And as
the fame of the sacrifice arose from the noun
tain top bearing the patriarch's prayer heaven
ward, the promise was given that the earth
should never again be swept by a deuge, and
10, Gods sgnet ring appeared in the clouds,
arching the man of God, and shown as a war
rant that the covenant should never be broken.
Baptized by the food-consecrate by the
altar-illumined by the first fresh rainbow,
Mount Ararat stood sacred mountain on the
earth.
