New TARIFFS, SOUTH AND NoRrH.-The
new protective Tariff bill passed Congress
at Washington may be a good thing for
the factories aud boundaries Of Massacbu-
setts and Pennsylvania, but it is not likely,
by any means, to be accepted as o peace
offering by the Southern States. On the
other hand, after the lapse Of few months,
between this Northern tariff and the new
tariff Of the Southern confederacy upon o
lower scale Of duties, the seeded States
may expect something from England and
France 10 the way of direct trade. New
York, perhaps, would do well to prepare
for something Of the kind.
