FLORIDA SENATOR

The Southern Press groans over the defeat of
Mr.. Yulee, of whom it says that "the frmness
and ability he displayed in opposing the Compro-
tied his return" 1t strives to gain comfort how.
mise measures, in time Of great trial, richly mer-
ever, by ass uring itself, if not the public, that
"Mr. Mallory, the Senator elect is thorough 60
ing supporter of the course of Mr. Yulee' That
we must take leave to doubt, in view of the fact
that no objection was raised against Mr.. Yulee,
except his opposition to the Compromise and his
utilization with the Disunionists. 1t seems from
the following item in the Tallahassee Sentinel of
the 14th inst. that he was very near carrying the
day:
The General Assembly had three votings in
Joint Session yesterday. The vote stood-for
Yulee 30; blank, 30. The Sd ii me, Yulee 3d.
blank, 80.
Florida will now have Wing Senator elected
by Democratic votes, and Democratic Senator
elected by Wing votes.

HON THOS. s. BOCOCK,

The Lynchburg Republican announces, by au-
thoritv, that the Hon. THos. S. BococK is candi
date for reelection to Congress, and thus states
his programme of operations
"Owing to painful domestic affection, MI Bocock
was not present in Congress upon the occasion of the
passage of the various bills knowas the compromise
and did not therefore, vote upon these measures But
he was known to be opposed to each and every of
them, with the sing e exception OF the Fugitive Slave
bill which was the only one OF the series that pretend
ed to respect the constitutional rights OF the South
These views of MIR. B., doubtless remain unchanged
and unmoded and he will we have no question come
before his constituents prepared to meet any degree Of
responsibility which may attach to them He will show,
and show trumphantly that the true friends OF the Union
were the opponents of the adjustment" and that the
deadliest enemies of that bond, were the friends OF
that measure He will show that the only effects of
that measure-ater effecting a complete robbery OF
Southern rights-were to produce sectional discord
and eaously, weaken the bonds of the Union and
urge on 10 and more aggravated trlumphs it pos
sibe the fell spirit OF Northern aboIiiionsm. And he
will show that successful resistance to the bills COM
promise, would have resulted in the adoption OF
measure Of adjustment alike just and honorable the
South and heal ing and paciying IN its effects upon the
Union of the States and the sympa thies of the peo
ple."
Now all this it will be exceedingly hard for
Mr.. Bocock, or any other man, to prove, and we
hope the Union men of the district, will take care
that somebody assumes the task of contesting his
arguments. By the way, if Mr.. Bocock would hare
voted against the Territorial bills, he would have
done precisely what Senator Mason did not d.
And if he main tains that the whole Compromise
together is 'a complete robbery of Southern
rights" we submit that he is bound to suggest
some more efficient plan of recovering these rights
than simply sending him back to Congress.

North Carolina on the Tariff.


The following important resolutions having been
previously adopted by the House ofCommons, came up
in the Senate on Thursday, tho 10th inst:
WHEREAS, The Southern States OF this Union have.
since the formation of the Federal Government fos-
tered and nourshed the manufacturing and mining in
terests ofthe slavehodng States, by voting to i'm
pose high taxes mportatons from foreign countries
which might come in competition with the productions
of the labor and industry othe aforesaid non
ing States; and hereas these acts Of generosity and
self sacrifice have been unappreciaed the North and
the people OF that section show disposition to make
unceasng attacks upon our institution and property;
therefore,
Resolved That the State OF North Carolina feels her.
self under further obligations by the votes of her
representatives in Congress otherwise to protect the
"home industry" OF the mons laveholding States.
ReS0Ued That our own industry needs protection it
can be better effected by State than by Congressional
legislation.
Resolped, That the present tariff is high enough to
afford sufficient revenue to carry economical lily
administered government and ought not to be increas
Resolved, That the foregoing Resolutions be trans
mltted to our members in both Houses OF Congress,
with request that they Law them before their respectye
Houses and with the further request that they vote
against any change ie the present tariff laws which
may nave the effect to protect encourage the
featuring mining interests OF the free States or which
may have the effect increase the to the Southern
consumers OF any OF the products OF foreign countries
The votes in the Commons on these resolutions,
which known those of Mr. Erwin, were on the LIST
los O. the 3d. 62 to 49, the 3d. IS 49, the 4th 81 to
g. The Rae Ugh Standard says:
Mr.. Barrnger's resolutions, introduced on the same
subject days since in the Senate were first taken
up, and unanimously adopted. But number of Se-
majors preferred Mr.. Erwins resoluons and Mr. She
pard gave reason for adopting the latter the strong
probability that Mr. Barrngers would not 90 through
the Commons before the adjournment, owing to the
large amount OF business pending in that body, A
good deal of discussion ensued, in which Messrs JOY
ner, Bower. Shepard, Caldwell OF M, Baringer and
others took part
Mr.. Erwn's resolutions passed the Senate by largo
maorities and Mr.. Barringers, which embody in sub
stance the same principle, passed unanimously above
stated.
We have not seen Mr. Barringers resolutions, but.
from the unanimous vote of the Senate in their favour,
we take i: for granted the principle" they embodied
was simply that the South ought not to sanction fur
her protection to manufactures until it is secure agans
agitation on the slavery question. We cannot think
that Wings could have concurred in some OF the deca
rations contained in Mr.. Erwins resolutions.
