THE TARIFF.
A Washington correspondent of the New York
Jo,..>.I &C Co,,rooroo ,,,.;to, oe fo11ou,e

A Washington correspondent of the New y orK
Journal of Commerce writes as follows:
al find that the friends of modification OF the tariff
with view to an increase of the rate OF duties anu res
toraon of the specific instead OF the a0odtoIent ys
tenn are very confident of.success. But II is au'eo
that their success must depend upon the passage vi e
Adjustment scheme. Without that, there Will oe n'
legislation on that subject
On the other hand, the Philadelphia North Anne
rcan argues that the North must consent to no
COMPROMISE which does not embody concession
to whatit considers Northern policy, in the way OF
an amendment of the tariff for the purpose of ma
king it more protective. We have always been
for the principle of moderate and steady protection
to American manufactures, and especially for the
specific as against the nd ualorem system We
believe that to be the true road to national prospe-
rity, and if the North, by its superior energy has
thus far profted more by protection than the South
with its superior natural advantages, we must
confess it has been the fault of the South. But
there can be amongst Southern men who have a
proper regard to the interests of their section, no
disposition to contribute to the usual objects OF
federal legislation, so long the North manifests
its purpose of bearing down upon our domestic
institutions The question of existence must be
settled before we can agree to consider the means
of sustaining the general health. We want no
legislation whatever until we kno W that the
federal government is not to be the instrument OF

YOUTHFUL DEPRAvITY.-An instance OF youthful de-
pravty rarely equaled in the police annals of this city,
came before the Mayor yesterday Reuben Brummel a
small white lad, apparently about fifteen years of age,
had been arrested at the instance OF Mr.. Benjamin Boil
ton charged with obtaining money under false preten
ces Mr. Bolton stated that the lad had lived with him
some IL or IS months in the capacity of apprentice
the tailoring business-that he had frequently sent him
to friend Of his on Duval street, where he resded)
for the purpose of borrowing small amounts OF oney
make change, &c-that the 24th inst the lad went
to this friend and neighbour of his, and in his name
borrowed $5-that he then returned home, secretly
packed up his clothes and left the house. Hearing of his
financial transaction during the day, search insti
tued for the lad and he had the good fortune to
haul him on the Dock whittier he had doubtless repair
ed for the purpose of escaping board of some vessel
trading from the city. The Mayor committed the lad
to jail and announced his determination of sending the
case before the Grand Jury at their next

CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES
Let it be remembered that Brandreths Vegetable UNI
persal Pills have now been before the citizens OF the
United States for nearly six years, and used by hun
dreds of thousands! They are so well known that it
need scarcely be mentioned that they are Purgative
Of century has proved that they may be taken
in any dose, according to Natures reqirements,-
and this rule refers to both and all ages They
have been used in every variety of arrangements of
the human body, and yet, when properly used, new
er failed to restore to health except in those
where nature exhausted before the pills were
commenced with.
Experience has taught that Brandreth's Vegetable
Universal Pills remove all corrupt humors from the
body in an easy, safe and efectua manner; producing
effect but what will finally conduee the perfect
publication Of the Blood, and thereby the disease
whatever name it may be called! and give perfect
health to the whole system.

gentleman named Francis Johnston, who had taken
post in ofthe reel came around and under the be-
efthat Mr.. Moore had endeavoured to shove the reel

The parties separated. however, before either sus-
tanned any damage. Shortly afterwards Moore met
Johnston, square or two above the place where the
first difficulty occurred. Upon demanding satisfaction
the parties again became engaged in personal collision
which speedily attracted crowd. In the midst OF the
fight, the watchmen stepped in and quietly arsesed
both the beigerants Mr. Moore tacty submitted to the
authority of the police; but the friends of Mr. Johnston
manifested determination at pc riod rescue him
from custody. The watchmen, however, succeeded in
placing both gentlemen in the cage, from which they
speedily bailed by their respective friends After
hearing the evidence the Mayor required security from
both parties in the penalty of 5000 each to keep the
peace. The requisite bail being rendered. there the
matter ended.

Central Railrodd-The UniuerSitu.

The Charlottesville Advocate says: "The iron
bridges on which the Va. Central Railroad crosses
the Rivanna river and Moore's creek, about one
mile below Charlottesville, were fully tested on
Thursday, in the presence of a large concourse OF
spectators The iron placed on each of the bridges
and the train of cars that passed over, weighed
together nearly 100 tons, but there was not the
slightest perceptbe DETECTION, and no injury was
sustained.
"After crossing the bridges. the cars came nearly
halt way to Charlottesville; and on Friday next,
the 28th, we shall have the pleasure of welcoming
their arrival at this place.
The completion of the railroad to Charlottes-
vile will render trip to the University, on the
occasion of the closing exercises of the session,
convenient and agreeable beyond precedent. We
hope the Alumni will manifest their attachment to
their alma mater by larger attendance than has
ever before been known at the annual reunions
Mr. Garnett, the orator of their society," is a gen
tleman whose talents do high honour to the Uni.
yersity, and who is doubtless destined to consp
cuous connection with public affairs. He will
have the privilege of congratulating his fellow
graduates upon the suspicious completion of q
quarter of century in the existence of the Uni

OGLE, of the United States Army, ius, ar.
r''ed from the Plains. lie had been situa.
ted at Fort kearney, and describes that
country as inhospitabie ani barren that
nothing will grow about Fort Kearney:
that the rain is constant from about the
iirSl of April to the first of Ju;y eve
ry year. What is then left undrownad
ou'' Is burnt up by the subsequent drought:
that The onI y timber i dwarf and gnarled
cotton wood growing along the edges Of
streams; that the soil here is sandy and in.
capable OF cultivation, and that the pro.
Sress at the works has been arrested with
view OF being abandon ed by the Govern.
men'. We also learn from him, that Fort
Laramie is similarly situated in the midst
OF vast waste plain; that cultivation OF
the soil has been attempted. but frustrated
by the drought and high winds, tn. latter
blowing even potatoes out OF the ground.
These forts are on the route to Oregon
Fort kearney about three hundred miles
beyond Independence, and Fort Laramie
about three hundred and fifty miles further
on towards the South Pass. from which il
is distant three or four hundred miles,
The great expense OF supplying these posts
