atiOns frt M the various Interests" VIII be
brought into piay that MIR. David A. Wells
report, which he is now framing, will be totally
neglected; and bill will be thrust into the
House marked by every fault which a bill can
have, in the last days of the session, and forced
through under the previous question:" to be
stopped in the Senate, thus leaving the country
for another year prey to the existing disorder.
We can at present have neither such tariff as
the proteCtionists nor the freetraders desire, for
the simple reason that, whatever the correct
theory may be, neither party is strong enough
to enforce its own policy, and all attempts made
by the protectonsts to carry their tariff by
coup de main, as last sassion, are pretty sure to
result in reaction, carrying us for blief period
Just as far in the other direction.
The fact is, the country can bear up under
any reasonable amount of financial blundering,
provided there be some method and persistence
uncertainty. and uncertainty is the soul Of the
present regime. The American man is pretty
sure TO make his way either under protection or
tree trade: but he must know which il is to be-
and be let alone once he has made his arrange
mCnts. One of the sins which most easily beaet
a strong majority, is the tendency to believe
that great power conferred for one purpose may
sent Congress has acted all along as if its posi-
ton on the tariff question were just as sure and
as emphatcally indorsed by the country as its
position on the question of reconstruction.
This is a mistake into which, we trust, it will
not fall again. The tariff question has still to
be discussed, for the public mind is not yet
made up about II, and men of all shades OF
opinion are still entitled to respectful hearing,
privilege which Congress Systematically
