THE TARIFF.

1t Is surprising that papers which support
the administration should continue TO mis-
represent the character and effect of the
Morrill, tariff Undoubtedly much foreign
hostility has been excited, not by the tariff
ITSELF but by the misrepresentation Of 1t,
some of them interested and malicious, and
some OF them only ignorant We have more
than once, and at considerable length, de-
Tended the revenue laws Of the country as
compared with those Of Europe, and we do
not propose to go over the ground again.
The existing tariff, whether good or bad. is
lower in its rates, simpler in its details, and
more liberal in its provisions, than the tariffs
OF the countries whose hostility towards it has
been excited by Interpretations at home.
1t is the lowest tariff of its predecessors ox-
cept the tariff Of 1857, which was so made
| quate TO the wants of the government that il
piled up debt of $50 1000 900 in four years
and the public credit ran so low that none,
for the absolute needs Of the treasury could
be hired only at twelve per cent
What would the objectors have Would
they have us go on with revenue system
that yielded only three quarters the ordinar,
expenses Of the COVE, nmont: The tariff Of
1876 yielded too large a revenue, and tho
tariff of lS57 was enacted to cut it down. The
tariff of 1887 yielded too little revenue
AM the tariff Of 1861 was enacted I,
bring 1t up. The rates are between those o
1876, which were found too high, and those
OF 1857, which were found too low. lit /,
not right, 1t can be remedicd and if the mer
who denounce it will devise plan whereof,
the ordinary expenses Of the government car
be met by the duties on imports, leaving tn,
war expenses to be met by loans and extra
ordinary taxes, they need have no apprehen
sion concerning its immediate adoption. -
This would be better employment than il
denouneing our own government and inham
ing tho hostility of the commercial nation,
against us. And if they are not equal to
task which they blame others for not accom-
phshing, the part of patriotism, for the present
would be silence. - ProuiAence Jotlrnnl

crack crack crack went their rifles and
down fell our men. Crack crack crack !
they came. of / jumped from my horse,
when along came the Major and gave me his
horse to hold; but | soon hitohed them both
to tree down by the river and sprang again
up the bank, when whiz went bullet past

me draw my head back in hurry, can as

no one for the smoke, which was plenty, so
leveled IN the direction Of the enemy and fred

close. Here comes another-buzz, buzz
(you can hear their whz for fully hundred
yards as they come get out Of the way
But where is it to go to: Whew that was
close. But, great God it has gone through
a mans shoulder within few yards of me !

gone through the animal, il would doubtless
have struck me.

very fine looking man who stood close to me
