The Failure of the Tariff Bill.

The late hour Of the session at which the
amended Tariff bill reached the House of
Representatives has resulted, as many of the
friends of the bill feared it would, in the loss
of the measure so far as the present Congress
is concerned. The original bill passed the
House of Representatives last session, and was
sent to the Senate. That body took no final
action upon it until the I'd of February, when
it passed almost entirely new bill. The enc
mics of the bill delayed action upon this
amended bill in the House by amendments,
speeches, ETC.. until the session was so far
gone that there was no chance of getting final
action on it except by suspending the rules,
which requires two-thirds vote. Several
efforts of that kind were made yesterday, but
without success, and Mr.. Morrill,, who had the
bill in charge, finally gave up the contest.
The test vote upon suspendiug the rules re-
suited as follows--yeas, 105; nays, 81. We
append the vote in full, that the people may
scrutinize the actions of their constituents

The political complexion of the vote is, for
the Tariff bill, 100 Republicans and 5 Demo
Gratis; against the bill, 20 Republicans and 33
Democrats. The Republican votes against the
bill are almost entirely from the Western
States.
The defeat of the bill is due to a variety of
causes. Prominent among which is the clash
ing of various interests each seeking for a
high rate Of protection to itself, and regardless
of the genuine interests of the country.

IHE WAY TO SUCCEss.-The true road to
success is fair, honest and upright wav of
doing business in all branches of trade.
Few, ifany succeed, permanently, by any
other course. What business men need. is
the respect and confidence of those who
deal with them. The truth Of this theory
is fully illustrated in the case ofH. Schwarz
the enterprlsing proprietor of the Eagle
Clothing Store" No. lis Main street, In this
city. From comparatively small begin
ming, less than two years ago, he has be-
come one ofthe most popular and extensive
clothing dealers in the city. His store is
daily thronged with customers, and his sue-
cess has become ''flxed fact" In the busi-
ness operations of Dayton. The best thing
about 1t is, that when he sells his customers
goods once, they are always sure to come
back again, for the simple reason that they
find he never decelves them-thev can
always rely both upon his wsrd and his
goods.
lie wishes now TO say to his customers
and the public--espeeially TO his country
friends--that he is now receiving the larg-
est and best stock of clothing ever offered
In Dayton. IL has been selected with spe-
cial reference to the holiday trade, and
those who purchase win find every thing
as represented.
lie takes this occasion to return his sim
eere thanks for the patronage heretofore
extended TO him, and TO assure his triends
that no efforts ON his part shall be wanting
to merit continuance of the favor and
I've hes heretofore received.

onment or both, for any one who shall ex-

The bill was still under discussion. when,
on motion of Mr.. Sherman, the Senate went

time spent therein, adjourned until Mon
day.
The House spent most OF the day on the
private calendar, and then took up the Leg

followed, on the item appropriating $4,000
