after one of the severest parliamentary
struggles of the session, finally passed
the tariff bill to-day, by q majority OF
AZ votes. The session lasted seven
hours, half of which time was occupied
with speeches. The passage Of the bill
was partially effected by compromise

reduced six dollars a ton, which leaves
it just at the rate in the law now in
force. The duty on pig iron was reduced
one dollar per ton, leaving IT at nine
dollars per ton; while the tariff on salt
was reduced six cents on the hundred
pounds from the rate originally reported
in the bill The most earnest appeal
made in behalf Of the bill came from the

A Washington correspondent gives
publicity to an extraordinary story, re
speeding the Radicals attempting to sac
riice jefferson Davis and others, who
were alleged to have been implicated in
the assassination Of Lincoln. 1t says
that Immediately after the execution of
Mrs Surratt here, the Judge Advocate
General set to work to procure evidence
for the conviction of Messrs Davis, Clay
and others, as conspirators. Several
detectives were employed to hunt up.and
hunt down every person supposed to have
had any correspondence or connec-
ton with the suspected parties, or
any knowledge leading directly or in
directly to convict them with the con-
spiracy, but after weeks of Industrious
labor and search they failed to discover
anything of the slightest consequence
bearing upon the subject. This result
was communicated to the Radicals in the
Cabinet and by them confded to the
leading Radicals then about to assemble in
Congress, and to a few celebrities of
their faction not in any Office. Disap-
pointed at the result the blood-thirsty
partisans who demand vengeance and
more blood, engaged another experienced
agent to hunt up the case and find the
necessary witnesses, at all hazards. He
did work it, up, and procured near dozen
who deposed, under oath, before the
Bureau of Military Justice to matters or
facts sufficient to hang both Mr.. DAVIS
and Clay. Among these men were
Gems. Montgomery, Mandeth and others.
Some of these men actually told their
story to the President and Cabinet, and
il was urged upon the President to try
them by military commission, but not
withstanding the opinion of Attorney
General Speed that it would be legal
and proper thus to try them. The Pres
ident, who penetrated the designs Of the
seoundrels, refused as it has twice trans
pred, and the Judiciary Committee
know that these men acknowledge that
there was no truth in their statements,
which they admit were made for money.
Judge Holt, in his official report last De-
cember, agreed in the improbability of
Mr.. Davis participation. .'r

AMERICAN NEWSPAPERS IN ENG

During the late debate in the House of
Commons on the reform bill, Mr.. JOHN
BRIGHT warned the Commons of the abso-
lutte necessity of admitting the people
largely to the franchise, as Germany was
even then in state which might termi-
nate i n absolute revolution on the CONT

authority, that the progress of the demo-
cratic principle was so marked in Eng
land that American newspapers were
more read in the mills and factories than
British Journals. - -
