MONTPELIER, JULY l3, 1866.
Tnr BunrrNeroN TIMES continues its attacks
upon Mr.. Morrill, and the Tarn-attacks superla-
lively silly, and before we get through the reader
will find stronger words of condemnation called
for.
Coal has advanced City cents a ton since Mr..
Morrill, reported his tariff. Salt and other neces-
sares OF life have gone up correspondmgy. What
a God send this pretty tariff will be to the poor
Darlington Times. July o.
Now for the facts as to coal. Mr. Morrill, re-
ported the duty precisely as 70 has been, except
imposing duty OF fifty cents per ton on btu
mnous coal from the neighboring British Proyin-
cas- The coal men Of Pennsylvania and Mary
land were dissatisfied and moved to amend by
fixing the duty at $3.50 per ton on all coal, btu
mnous inclusive. Ma MonpuL OPPOSED IT, and
was beaten by one majority. Now if coal has
risen fifty cents ton, It is not ON account of Mr.
Morrilrs bill but because of the amendment
which was carried by the coal men against both
him and "eyery New England member as the
Times said ON saturday The Times was not ig-
norant, therefore ON the coal question. Is it
honest or decent in thus grossly and knowingly
misrepresenting Mr. Morrill,?
As to salt. Mr. Morrill, did propose an increased
duty, ON the ground that our domestic establish
ments must Doe preserved. so as not to leave the
country dependent ON foreign sources for sup
ply. lie said owe cannot afford TO make it
free, nor yet can we afford to tax it SO heavily as
to make it luxury, or anything but what it is
am article for human natures daily use" Aud he
was right. destroy our salt works. and then we
shall be at ,he mercy Of the foreign producers,
aud pay sun more for our salt. The House
agreed to the salt duty on Thursday last, and if
Burlington dealers have put mp the price since
that day. we admit Just enough truth ia the Times
to save it from condemnation on that point
Here is still another black gem from the Times
