But day or two afterwards the
clause OF the tariff regulating the duty
on earthenwaro was reached. The In
fuential constituents ofthe Congress-
man aforesaid, are largely interested
in the American potterios, most of
whieh-aF are located IN his district, and
can control sufficient votes TO prevent
his reelection. Mindful Of this fact
the gontIcman-apperently oblivious
of hist free trade speech, made few
days before-rose in his place and de-
liberately moved that the tariff on
pottery ware should be materially in
creased. Democratic Congressman
evidently have the most supreme
contempt for the intelligence Of the
geat mass Of their party, and think no
inconsistency will result in any dam
age to their popularity. We are not
so sure that they are not justified in
this conclusion. by the history of the
party. 1t is very certain, however
that were Republicans to attempt Q
similar course of dupliciiy and decep.
ton, they would be repudiated b.
their constituents in short order.

Previous to tho the late city elec-
ton, we took occasion to say, through
the columns of the Courier, that the
Fifteenth Amendment would not
have legal force and effect until Con-
gress passed the necessary laws to
give it validity.-Coarier.
Certainly But every intelligent
man in the community knew that II
was unmitigated nonsense. The edi-
tor of the Courier evidently thinks
that the right of property or person
never had an existence until laws
were passed furnishing stealing and
assaults. What legal Solomon

Your citizens know its merits, and
what more can be said. To the dis

unmitigated delight. TO praise them
is almost like gliding refined gold.

pemocrallc Free.TradeFs.

AS an evidence of how little Dem
ocrats, in or ont of Congress. can De
relied upon as free-traders, the Lou
isvillo Commercial cites the fact that
the only successful motion for in.
creasing che rate Of duties in committee
of the whole, over the figures agreed
upon by Schenck's committee of
ways and means. up to this time, was
made by the Democratic member,
Mr.. Axtell, from California-$3 in
stead of 80 on spirits simply to pro-
tect California brandy against the
competition of the better and cheaper
French brandy; in fact, compelling
people of moderate means to drink
rot-gut in place Of either. The old
chief ofthe New York copperhead,
repudiating, draft voting, orphan
asylum-burning Democracy, Fer
nando Wood, openly il his seat
disclaimed the name Of o free-t trad
err, and in the interest of the
Louisiana sugar. planters, moved
to restore the duty of three cents on
raw sugars, whieh the committee had
fixed ut two cents. The New York
World, the organ of the more decent
branch of the Democracy, complains
of the absence of most of the Loco
foco membsrs during the tariff discus
sion, leaving Mr.. Allison and the Re-
publican free traders unsupported in
their fight with Schenck's forces. 1t
might add In this connection that,
through the absence of half dozen
Democratic Congressman at the din
ner rendered by the Manhattan Club
to John g. Breckinridge for his emil
nent services In the cause of freedom,
the copper tariff bill was passed over
President Johnson's veto. ~ sfr
The same paper is anxious to see
how James B. Beck, who repre-
sents the hemp region Of Kentucky
IN Congress. will act when the clause
in the tariff bill fixing the duty on
that article is reached. We think
the Commercial will find the honor
able gentleman voting against re-
ducsion of the tariff on the great
Kentucky staple. Like his brother
Democrats. he will be consistent alone
in his inconsistency. 1o
Some days ago the Democratic
member from the Trenton. New Jer-
sey, District, made o flaming speech
against the iniquities of the tariff
and was enthusiastically congratulated
at its close by his brother Dem ocrats.

TIE Boston Board of Trade, on
the 4th inst, with commendable lib
erality, adopted resolutions urging
upon Congress the early passage of
the bill constituting certain Western
cities, Evansville being among them,
Ports of Entry. They respectfully
urge upon Congress "the early pas
sage of the bin referred to, or of such
other bill as il its wisdom it may pre-
fer, which shall place tho leading
cities of the United States upon an
equal iooting, 80 far as geographical
position will permit, in all the laws
and regulations which relate to the
importation OF foreign goods" They
also address copy of their resolu-
tions to the Senator's and Representa-
tives in Congress from the State of
Massachusetts, 81, s8 -
This generous action on the part of
the Boston merchants ought to exert
a. salutary influence upon Secretary
Boutwell,. This gentleman seems to
be the only stumbling block in the
way of the passage Of the bill. We
think his objections have been an
swered, and that he ought to give his
consent 10 the new law, and
use his best endeavors to give it fair
trial. IF it be. found by actual expert
mcnt that the revenue cannot be col
leeted as honestly at interior posts as
on the sea board. the law can be re-
pealed. But no good reason has been
assigned for such belief that has not
been answered by the friends of the
new law. The injustice of compel
ling commercial cities, like those in
Guided in the new bill, to be mere
tributaries of the cities on the sea
coast, so far as. foreign commerce is
concerned. is-too glaring to be toler-
ated much longer. If Secretary
Boutwell, cannot successfully collect
the revenue under the new arrange
ment, We are lnclinedto believe that
Secretary might be found somewhere
within the limits of the United States
who could do that thing, and not re-
gard it as such a wonderful display
of executive ability either.

SO Ear as the Courier is concerned,
there has never been an unpleasant
