THE rARIFF IN coNGREss.

President Grant exhibited both good
Judgment and sound sense in advising no
interference with the tariff at present, nor
until the funding of the debt at lower
rate Of interest had been accomplished.
The tariff is the least burthensome and
least expensive form Of collecting revenue,
while it at the same time is made to foster
and build up our manufacturing and agri-
cultural industries We hope Congress will
heed the advice Of the President and if it
Is found at all advisable, to reduce the
revenue, which we think very doubtful,
let it be done in the Internal Revenue de-
partment where, it win tighten the bur
thens Of the people directly and where the
expense Of collection Is heaviest. No grea.
ter calamity could befall our country at
present than such a reduction Of the tariff
as would PROSTATE our industry. In no
period Of our history has our whole couu-
try known such industrial activity aud
such rapid progress in wealth and strength
as in the past six or seven years under our
present protective tariff. It would be an
objectionable blunder, and little less than
industrial suicide to Interfere with or ma
terially reduce the rates OF tariff that has
brought US such extraordinary prosperity
IN SO short a space Of time. We trust Con
gress will hesitate long before it 10 any way
lnteTteres with our present tariff rates.
