How il Works.
Lansing Journal.

Tho tariff Of 1857, which is now in
operation, is low revenue tariff, and yet
those very manufacturers which it has
been claimed all the while should have
protection were never moro prosperous
than they are at this very time. The
Boston Courier is good high tariff au-
thority, and it lately stated that the
mills of New England were never more
active than at present, and the stocks OF
our leading productions were seldom so
smuch reduced. Notwithstanding the
large importations of foreign goods, it is
believed that the coming season will be
"a profitable one for our manufacturer"
This shows how unfounded has been the
cry that the people of the whole country
should be taxed for the support of few
manufacturers. Under low revenue
tariff they are able to support themselves
and the people avoid the unnecessary tax
alton that would otherwise be necessary

an area, where he was found dead The
absence Of gold watch and diamond
ring from his person led at first to suspic

ability is that they were stolen from the
body after the accident. Walsh was one
of that class Of politicians that in New

impudence and rutianism, and of whom
Siekles and Rynders are still living,

FROM WASHINGTON.

March 2l.--The real reason for the
op position in the Cabinet to the extra
session, is the apprehension that the new
House would overhaul the condition oil
the treasury, aud exp.s Sc the false esti-
mates and require q modification Of the
Tariff as condition for granting the
Post Office or other appropriations
This opinion is probably we'll founded, as
the House would not be justified in vot.
ing untold millions without providing
means for payment.
Secretary Cobb estimated the balance
in the Treasury on the first of July, at
s. 900, 900, and Congress at the last SEES
sion appropriated s., 200, 900. not inclu
ded ia his estimates, which arc now pay
able, thus leaving only s5,Oo0,o 900. Now
If Congress should be convened, and pass
the Post Office bill, the deficiency fel
the current year would absorb this whole
amount, and leave no balance, either ar.
tifeial or real, on the LIST of July.
1t is well understood that Cobb's anx
iety to keep Congress away, arises FROM
his expecting that foreign trade will sud
eenly revive, and his blundcrs escape
detection.

As We expected, tho contract tor car
rying mail, in any manner, between this
place and Wilton, will not be let. Here
We are in Upton, town Of some fifteen
hundred Inhabitants, twenty-five miles
from Muscatiue, our nearest point on the
Mississippi River, without any direct
mail route between the two places. This
is worse than it was seven years ago,
when Fi,z Ioury Warren was Assistant
Postmaster General. Then We had a
mail twice a week from Muscatine, noe,
we have none except as few individuals
here fork over the dimes to pay for car
rying it. Is this just? Should we in
Iowa, with twice the population we had
seven years ago, have our mail accommo-
datiens lesscned, while hundreds of thou
sands of dollars are being squandcred
upon some favorite routes, that favored
men may be enriched? 1t is true that
contracts for this route have been adver-
tiscd for and proposals received, but us
appears from statement of the 7. NJ
G., in another place, it "cannot be put
into operation until provision shall be
made for it by law, i. e. service will not
be put on till after another session OF
Congress. II is we'll known that the
Pos. Office appropriation bill failed to
pass Congress, aud the result is great EN-
barrassment in that department, aud con
sequently we cannot have a north and
south mail. Thc reason why the bill did
not pass may not be as well known. Il
had passed the House, but the Sen tc
which is intensely Democratic, had pass
cd Ill. raising the rates of postage, {;
Aenecratic measure, and refused to pas:
the appropriation bill unless the HOUSE
would first pass the bill increasing post
age. When the appropriation bill came
up in the Senate, few minutes bcfort
the time when the last Congress mus

passage and commenced a speech to pre-
ven. its consideration. ii was warnet
that he would defeat the bill, but that be
in5 just what he wanted, he kept on til
the minute hand reached II clock, afte
which time nothing could be done.
Thus it is, that wn mus, suffer becaus
a Democratic Senate wanted to raise TIL
rates Of postage. Democracy is "Na

One Of the most trying and per'lous
things connected with our free form Of
