10 The war OF words in Congress
over Schenck's tariff bill has been long
and warm, as might reasonably be ex-
pected on a question, involving various
clashing and irreconcilable interests
The House having by a vote of O. to GO
adopted Ben Buffers amendment re-
ducing the tariff on pig iron from nine to
five dollars per ton, the iron interest, of
course, became dissatisfied and turned a
cold shoulder to the bill, and it is proba-
BILE that it will fail. The importers and
free traders in this country were never
better organized than now, while on the
other hand the advocates of a protective
tariff were eve so badly organized. In
these days of high taxes, the imposition
of tariff duties for the special purpose of
protecting some particular interest from
the rivalry of a cheaper manufacturer or
trader, must expect stubborn opposition,
and in a readjustment of duties cannot
reasonably hope for any other protection
than that incidentally afforded in a tariff
levied for revenue purposes. This may
not be just the line of policy that would
best promote u more immediate local
interests, for we of 1.-THE Mahoning Valley
are very extensively and vitality inter
ested in the success of the iron trade.
But the -antagonizing interests that raise
their hundred agitated heads in Congress,
when a tariff measure is under devise
ment. all striving for some special dis
elimination in each particular behalf.
have satisfied many that they must be
content with a half loaf or none. The
hobby Of a protective tariff is not recog-
nized at this time as a party measure
The Republicans, unfortunately, are
divided on the question. Were it other
wise the party majority we have in Con-
gress would render the question of easy
solution. But it is a matter of individual
opinion and local interest, not of party.
The Democrats, true to their ancient pre-
judices, are about unanimously free ira
ders, and they with the low tariff Repub-
licans have the greater power in Con-
gress. Ben Butler, who is in favor of a
NailA DShShtihs LoMSlA SObtol ildLlulac-
turers, hasn't a single bowel Of compass
sion for a Mahoning Valley iron maker.
Our representative, Gen. Garfield, stood
up brsvely for the iron interest, but de-
serted by the Republican Buffers, he
had to yield to the reduction from nine
to five dollars. The best thing the iron
men can hope for now is that the bill
will be killed

Gs> Congress was lively for a while,
on Saturday, over a motion to postpone
the further consideration of the tariff
bill. In reply to the argument of Mr..
Judd, that the consideration of the tariff
bill was a mere waste of time, Mr..
Schenck charged that there was a pre-
concerted effort on the part of Mr.. Judd
and his friends TO defeat all attempts
of the Ways and Means Committee to
reduce the taxes. He said if the tariff
bill was killed, its epitaph would be:
"Nibbled TO death by pismires." This
was uttered in such a bitter tone that it
aroused the indignation of Mr.. Logan
and others Who had been opposing the
tariff bill. Mr.. Logan replied in a spiF-
tied manner to MI. Schenck, when the
latter retorted that if the term did not
suit the gentleman, he would modify
il so as 10 read: kicked to death by
grasshoppers." Mr.. Schenck was aided
in his opposition to Messrs. Judd and
Logan, by Mr.. Cox and the Democrats
generally, and when the vote was taken,
on motion of Mr.. Judd, to postpone,
there were not enough in favor Of it to
demand ~tellers.

General Garfield's Banking and Cur
rency Bill,

General Garfield, chairman of the
committee on banking and currency, re-
ported to the House on last Friday a bill
to increase banking facilities. 1t contains
twelve sections, and provides for the
issue of sos, 600, OOOof national currency
to the states having less than their pro-
portion, and for the redemption and
cancellation of SAC, 200, 900 oflegal tenders;
also, that additional currency shall be
secured by a deposit of Il per cent.
bonds exempt from taxation, and that
when $50, O00, 900 of the new issue have
been taken up, all banks shall receive
the same II per cent. bonds as security
for their circulation. 1t provides for
free banking on a gold basis and for a
redistribution of SIS, 0O0, 900 of national
bank notes, taking that amount from the
states having an excess and redistribut-
ing it to the states which are deficient I;
but this redistribution shall not take
place until the S95, 000, 900 provided for
shall have been issued. 1t reduces the
taxes on circulation one-half on all banks
that secure all their circulation by the
new bonds.
The New York Herald, in common
with eastern journals, banks, bankers,
and congressman, does not like Gar
fields new financial bill. In abiding to
the fact that it provides for issuing ninety
five million dollars of currency to States
having less than their proportion and for
the cancellation of forty-fve million dol
lars of three per cent. certificates and
forty million dollars of legal tenders,
the Herald says: '.The proposition is
equal, in fact, to a proposal to withdraw
n~inety-iive millions of money, for the
use of which we pay one and a half per
cent interest, and to substitute ninety
five millions of money on which we
must pay four and one-half per cent, or
to take the present interest money from
the mass of the people. who now get it,
and give it with an additional bonus of
three per cent TO the national banks,
which already have enough. Judging
from the disposition heretofore evinced
in the House, we think the bill is sure
not TO pass, and that it is only intended
rs a bit Of buncombe 70 tickle the faucies
of Western constituencies"

Seldom do we announce a death with so
sad a heart, and where the fountain OF sym
pathy is so deeply moved, as at the present,
while We record the death Of Miss AMANDA,
daughter of Joshua and Laura Harrington,
who died OF consumption, March 18th. 1870,
aged twenty-five years. In her death we
have lost one OF earth's fairest and sweetest
flowers. Progressing in appearance, mild
and agreeable In manner, she had endeared
herself To all with whom she associated.
Possessing q brilliant mind, she had richly
repaid their toll in the proficiency she had
made in the various sciences. She was
an excellent scholar and most successful
teacher, in which employment she had
spent eight seasons, teaching four terms in
her fathers district, where she had estab-
lfShed an enViable reputation as a teacher, q
true lady, and a worthy C~hristian-was "A

sickness was long n distressing, she en-
dured IL All without a murmur. She was
ready, and even lOnged 10 depart, that she
might be with Christ. Entreated her pa

her, saying h was going bone, and that
they would soon join her in that better and
brighter land. sonnet ten nut before she

her vision from the invisible world seemed

In her manner, intelligent and interesting in

gent and refined sought her society. But
the sweet and winning spect that wore per-
petually an attractive smile is seen 10 more.
Tit eye that outshone the diamonds lustre,
and glanced her lovely light into the most
guarded heart is eclipsed. That tongue that
once commanded all the charms Of harmO-

ear with Its sweet melody, and that now of
persuasion that carried captive the hearts
OF her pupils, has become silent as the night
that surrounds us. But her friends enjoy

living she was all that q daughter and sister

has gone to n brighter int fairer cline,
where she will bloom in eternal youth.
Her funeral was attended by a large and
