warning they will be liable to stray into places
where the company is almost exclusively OF one
kind, and that the worst; and under such circum,
stances they are likely to form a strange idea oil
English society. There is another lamentable
feature of this metropolis in which it stands IN

this point we conceive that either some improve

allowed to remain as they are foreigners snould
be warned, and the national morals to some ex-
tent indicated. These are some OF the points In
which our apprehensions have been moved IN be-
half of our visitors. If our readers will only put
themselves in the position of simple foreigner

they will at once perceive that every step ne

We beg to suggest that for such matters as the
sights of London, lodging, board, cabs and the

FROM WASHINGTON.
Reyirion of the Tariff.

Correspondence OF The Tribune
WASHINGTON, Thursdsy, Jan %.
The present Session of Congress, seem to have
hit upon the master-stroke of glorious inactivity.
deeming undoubtedly, that there is more safety to
their personal interests in doing nothing than in
passing laws that might be unpopular somewhere.
Most certainly they occupy their time by tao
most assiduous industry-in ranking and mail
ing public documents. But their application.
presume, is of more personal than public import
ance
Yesterday, | understood, there was Tariff
Speech in the House from somebody, but did not
take the trouble to learn whom, for the subject
ofhigher interest than the speech. was informed.
confdentially, as if from authority, that there
would not be any important change in the present
Tariff this Session, which / suppose most of its
friends fear But l would say to them, doubt
and ndecsion never accomplished any great
good-courage, energy and hope will do more.
OF course, thanked my informant very court
eously for his information, but my impression
was that my own knowledge of facts was better
than bis authority.
We all know the general idea throughout the
country, is that there is no time for consideration
of go important a measure this Session. This is
not light opinon-time is necessary.
But it is no new idea-no untried legislation.
Not a member in either House but has his opin-
ion, and will be as well prepared to vote upon
it within two weeks as within two years
and the man must be blind, perverted or
preiudiced without reason, who looks upon it as
a party, instead Of a national policy. know no
party traces or shackles. have nothing to hope
or ask of any political party in Christendom, and
yet, in national view, deem that the highest
interests of the country demand a revision Of the
present tariff. | know that even tho warmest
friends of change regard the matter with as much
doubt as anxiety; and yet, were they as active 40
anxious, the matter might be accomplished The
impossibty is more in the INDIGESTION than in
fact-and say this to create more faith and en-
erey among its friends.
From observation and deduction ! arrive at this
conclusion and | think you may rely upon the
nformation-in less than three weeks there will
be action tending to important and favorable mod
ilications of the present Tariff; and, although Il
may not be all that is desired it will be much bet
ter than it now is and the next Congress wiz
proceed in an early part Of the Session to estab-
lish one upon permanent basis. do not know
whether you know this or not, bat short time,
think, will confirm my conclusions. s.T.V.
