MORRIsoNs TARIFF,

Mr.. Morrison made a very plausible
speech in favor of his tariff bill in the
House yesterday, from which copious ex-
tracts will be found in another column.
The theory of a revenue tariff which lie
advances might do very well If our labor
was all proftably employed in the produc-
tion of articles to exchange for the i'm
mense importations which he anticipates
from the adoption Of his bill. But as it is,
with but little surplus production at home,
we shall be Obliged to forego the luxuries
of foreign lands until our own industries
revive. Mr.. Morrison's is the free trade
theory, and carried out to its logical con-
clusion would result in the abrogation of
all duties regardless of the policy of other
nations toward US. For the present. legis-
lation should be directed to the fostering
and employment of our own labor. In
stead of any attempt at this, the present
Democratic House has used every en-
deayor to deprive as many poor lsborers of
Government employment as possible by
cutting down appropriations, reducing the
number of workmen and cutting down the
wages of those who may remain to starvs-
tion rates. And now Mr.. Morrison pro-
poses to compensate them by letting
in foreign luxuries at q lower rate
Of duty. What bare poor starving
National Republican., 1876-05-26


latorers to do with luxurisst They
are asking for bread. They are asking for
cheap freIghts, by which bread may be
cheapened. They are ssking for employ
ment in the construction of cheaper routes
of transportation from the grain fields Of
the West to the seaboard, so that a home
demand for grain and bread may be built
up. They care not how cheap foreign
goods are if they have no money to buy.
They care not how high prices are if they
can have labor at wages in proportion. 1t
is the stagnation of labor to which they OBJ
ject. And this Democratic, eK-Confederate
House has done and is doing all it can to
add to the prevailing depression. 1t is no
time to talk of that free trade which in
wolves direct taxation, when men are fight
ing battle against the ravages Of hunger.
Give the people the means to obtain the
bread and meat of the West before you
provide for cheap foreign goods, which
are notnecesssry to their existence, and
which they have no money to buy.
National Republican., 1876-05-26

THE White Liners are busy again.
They are on the trail of the negro with
more bestial brutality than ever before.
In Petersburg yesterday, without proyoca-
ton, they shot down two colored voters.
One Of them died; the other is dying.
Down near Edgefeld, South Carolina, day
before yesterday, two hundred of them
took six negro prisoners from the sheriff,
and dragging them to convenient spot
murdered them in cold blood. What does
this meant Were the colored people of
the South liberated simply to become the
targets for the bullets of these vicious ras-
Gals and the victi ms of their old hate ?
Can justice keep the balance level while
these barbsritIes are being committed?
The force act, killed in the house of its
friends, would have saved the lives of
those who are now being offered as terri
ble sacrifice through the im5ecility and
weak-kneedism of Northern Republicans.
The Souh is lost to the Republican party,
and the lives of former slaves are in the
hands of their old masters, by them to be
cut off at will.
National Republican., 1876-05-26

AND now it seems that one of the Mas
sachusetts Democratic members of the
House is in trouble on account of little
Credit Mobilier business. The Hon.
Chester W. Chapin, president of the Al
bsny and Boston railway, has been recon-
mended by the State Senate for trial by the
courts for defrauding the stockholders out
of their proper earnings. The thing was
done by the "wheel, ,within-a-wheel"
policy. Fast freight lines, contract and
finance boards, express companies, &C.,
are regular robbing-machines.

HINToN's RoUGHs were out in full force
again at Hintonville Qate Petersburg, Va.,)
yesterday, and attacked and shot colored
Republicans away from the polls. and de-
streyed their books of record. When sum-
moned to court they were martialed and
marched by their leaders into the presence
of the magistrate in the true intimidating
military style. OF course, Petersburg, with
alarge numerical Republican majority, will
be counted Democratic. They have no
Johnnie Davenport down there. If they
had they would kill him.

THE Confederates of the House went
back on themselves last night in the caucus
for Doorkeeper, to succeed Fitzhugh. They
voted want of confidence in ex- Confeder-
ates, and deserted the South entirely by
rejecting Col. Polk, of Missouri, and nomi-
mating Col. Patterson, of New Jersey. This
will not help them much. They feel sure
of Missouri in the fall election, and hope by
this grand stroke of policy to secure New
jersey. But the insignificant bribe will be
National Republican., 1876-05-26

SHALL the administration of the Govern
ment pass into the hands OF the ex-Con-
federstes? This is the paramount ques-
tion. Ifa Democratic President is chosen
by Southern votes, can he refuse to do the
bidding of the Southern States? Can he
refuse to select his Cabinet from their lead
ing men? Can he reject the leading fea-
lures of their policy, as foreshsdowed in
the present House? OF course not. He
will be in their hands like clay in the hands
of the potter, to be moulded at their will.

the Mollie Maguires any worse than the Mollie
Monopolies"
What will 1t profit a man if he gain the
whole World and lose his sole to boot. Mr..
Hurlburt will take kindly warning.
The correspondents of Paris to American
journals are fond of searching out the old
raddled and harridan female physical bank
rupts of that very worldly city and exposing
them to the view of society which has long since
gladly forgotten them. Does 1t payi
Explosions are almost everyday occurrences.
Some of them are gigantic, and result disas-
trously; others are weak, and cause no injury.
There are two yet to come which will astonish
the natives, and may wake up the dead. We
refer to William Allen and He'll Gate.
A young man, having letters Of recommen-
dation from leading politicians of the West,
presented one Of them at the Department Of
Slate, which read "This young man has been
weighed in the balance and found wanting
something. Give it to him if you have any to
spare, and oblige."
field as it now looks, notes the more marked
changes as follows: 81. There is a marked
revival in the hopes and prospects of Senator
Conkling. 2. AS Conkling has been gaining,
Gov. Tilden has been losing" That is the
TriJune'S view Of the present outlook.
Washington favored John Adams as his sue
cessor, and lent his aid, so far as 1t was COM
patfble with the honor and dignity of his office,
to secure his election. jefferson labored hard
to confer the Presidency upon Madison. Jack
son openly ayowed his favor for Van Buren,
and used all the power of his administration
to elect him.
Bradford Rhodes, editor Of the New York
Safeguard, large and influential journal
published in the interests of savings banks
and savings bank depositors, is in the city at
tending to the following bill, which has passed
the House and is now waiting the sanction Of
the Senate: "That no stamptax shall be re-
quired on receipts to savings banks or institu-
tions for savings having no capital stock and
doing no other business than receiving deposits
to be loaned or invested for the sole benefit of
the parties making such deposits, without
company" The bill merits the ready approval
it received in the House, for the simple reason
that 1t will be a source of great relief to all
poor depositors, wBO are now compelled to
pay the stamp-tax every time they draw on
their bank account for even the most trivial
amount. Every effort to relieve these poor
money savers is laudable, and cannot fail to
receive the hearty approval of all high-mIuded
men.

naval forces around the Hellespontl Why Is
