Reduction Of the Tariff.

Among the proceedings of Congress at the close
of its existence, and the most important of ALL was
the reduction of the Tariff of 1916. The growing
commerce Of the country, and the increased con-
sumption Of foreign fabrics, have SO increased the
revenue, that large amount of specie is now lying
idle in the vaults of the sub-Treasury. The with
drawal of this amount Of specie from general cir
culaton has oCcasioned serious inconvenience to the
business Of the country; so much that had it moi
been for the timely discovery of gold in California
we should long before this been bankrupt. This
accumulation has more than kept pace with the ex.
pendtures of our government, and it could only
be checked by reducing the rates of impost on du-
table goods, and by increasing largely the free
list.
The chief features of this new act, which has mo-
yet been published in full are as follows the du-
ties on brandes and other spirits are reduced from
100 to 80 per cent; on iron and sugar from 80 Il
"a per cent; wool under 20 cents per pound in val
ne free, An average reduction of 20 per cent il
made on most articles, while the free list is largel.
increased. The bill passed was the result ola con
ference between committees ofthe Senate and House
and whilei perhaps did not meet the precise view
of any member, it was believed to be the best tina
could be obtained 1t was passed in both branche
by large majorties, but was opposed by the Sena
tors and Representatives from this State.

The State House.

The business for which the extraordinary session
of the Legislature was convened having been COM
pleted, the General Assembly adjourned on Satur-
day morning of last week. A list of the laws pass
ed will be found in another column.
Af1er an exciting contest Of nearly two weeks,
il was decided to rebuild the State House Mt Mont
peer on terms mentioned in the act for that pur-
pose The test vote was exceedingly close in the
House, and would probably have been different had
1t been taken earlier in the session, and had the
different interests outside of Montpelier been uni
ted As it was, the more the session was prolonged
the better was it for Montpelier. The inhabitants
Of that place fought the battle with great odds in
their favor. They were on their own premises.
We do not know that they rendered any pecuniary
compensation for votes. Had approaches of that
nature been made, the utmost pains would have
been taken to cover up the tracks But the indi-
rect means of reaching weak members which arc
more undsguised, such MS social entertainments,
weaving about some soft-hearted member the chains
Of female influence log-rolling, promises Of assist
ance in aid of future projects or promotions. UNI
doubedly contributed their full influence in effect
ing many instantaneous conversions. Upon nc
other principle can we account for the votes o.
some members, given as they were in direct oppo
stion to their oft-repeated declarations.
The expense of rebuilding the State House OF
substantially the original plan, will cost S15,OOt
or $685. 900. The materials left by the fire, incu
ding the site, grounds, fence, &C., are probabl,
worth nearly as much more The citizens of Mont
pclier pledged themselves to rebuild for $4,000
and they have given bond 10 refund this sum
We do not like the principle of seeing our Capito
erected in that manner, but if any town consider
it an object Of sufficient Importance to raise tn
money, We think the people will be quite willini
they should do so.
The work Of reconstruction will be performc,
under the direction of committee Of three, to b
appointed by the Governor, one Of whom will b
superintendent. Thomas sloway, of Boston, form
erly of Woodstock, and pupil of Ammi b. Young
the architect of the former State House, will be til
architect Of this work. 1t is thought that it vii
be completed in season for the session Of 1859. Il
the mean time the Legislature will continue 20 as

Pierce out and Buchanan in.

The administration of Franklin Pierce came to
an end by constitutional limitation, on Wednesday.
Its record was substantially submitted to the peo-
pie last fall, and by them disproved. His success
sor was elected on different issues, albeit he belongs
to the same party nominally, while o majority of
the people were ayerse to every idea embodied in
its platform.
Franklin Pierce has now retired to private life,
where we trust he will enjoy all the consolation to
be derived from pledges broken and confidence for
feited. He has, in the short space of four years,
contrived to throw away advantages such as were
never before offered successful aspirant for Pres
dental hepeEs lie came into power on q whirl-
four winds OF heaven. Had he consented to have
been the President of the nation, instead Of be-
coming the blind tool of party dctation, he might
have achieved an Immortality of fame, and have
been grati6cd by hearty reelection. What he
has made himself is patent to ALL
James Buchanan has succeeded to the highest
Office within the gift of free people. In so far as
he administers our national government with d.
rect reference TO the good of the whole people, and
to the advancement Of all the interests of the coun
try, just so far will we commend his course His
age and experience in political life are such as
would commend him to the confidence Of the pub
lie, had that age brought to him wisdom, and thai
experience prudence and discretion. His past po-
litical history contains many page that We thinl
he would gladly see obliteratcd. If his future il
upright and patriotic, rather than snuous anC
partzan, he will do much to wipe out the stain ant
achieve an imperishable fame. The selection o
his Cabinet gives us hope that, il not surrounde,
by able and brilliant advisers, moderation will ru
in his councils, and prudence control his actions
Let us hope for the best, and at the same time
prepared for the worst
Aside from those who are about to bid adieu t
official life, and those who are anxious to test it
pleasures, cares and responsibilities by experience
but very few Of the vast number Of our citizen
who participated in the struggle last fall, feel an
interest in the change of administrations. 1Io,
different is this from the scenes enacted in monar
ehical governments when dynasty is supplante
or overturned. There everything is confusion an
alarm. Public securities fuctuate, and official
tremble. Here all is quiet, confidence and safety
Business moves on in its accustomed channel,
While the Inauguration ceremonies are progrcssin
, in Washington, the mass of the people are confer
to remain at home, scarcely giving thought I
the details of the programme that is to direct III
domestic and foreign policy of the country for III
next four years. This fact alone is complete den
: onstration of the strong foundations upon whc
our Union rests, and sure guaranty of its perp,
r tuity.
