Revising the Tariff.

The new Tariff bill, as perfected by
the subcommittee Of the House Ways
and Means Committee, has been fur
nished to the press. Many of its de-
tails are unimportant, and all of them
are as dry as the multiplication table.
A dispatch from Washington to the As
ISOLATED Press, after giving the nature
of the bill in detail, adds, in regard to
it's leading character, as compared with
the existing tariff:
The general principles on which the bill is
based are reduction and simplihcation, and with
sections directly looking to the enlargement OF
our foreign trade. The schedules and CLASH
fcations of the present tariff are followed. A
slight reduction is made, averaging about 20
per cent. Of the present rates in the entire list.
though in wines, brandies and cigars, and
other articles Of like character, there Is no re-
duction. There are no compound duties, rates
being either specific or al valorem. There is
no free list Every article that is not dutiable
is admitted free without specification or
enumeration. The present number Of articles
in the Tariff law is reduced to about 500, all
told, in this bill. All changes have been made
from ad valorem 70 specific duties wherever
practicable. 1t is claimed that this bill will re-
duce the cost of collection from 81, 250, 900 to
less than S3,000.000. The bill proposes to
raise S154, SAG, 600, estimated by treasury ex-
perts upon the average of imports for the past
six years. Only S13S, 600, 600 were collected
last year The publication of the bill at this
time il with view of eliciting expressions Of
public opinion before final action.

managers, who preferred TO trust to the chances
of an Electoral Commission. This Is Burke's
story, in brief. as told to the correspondent,
and We give it for what tits worth.
The President gave one of the regular state
dinners at the White House last week. and
among the prominent guests was Judge Clifford,
Of the Supreme Court, this being his first ap-
pearance at the Executive Mansion during the
present administration. II has been stated
heretofore that Justice Clifford was the only
member of the Supreme bench who had not
recognized Mr.. Hayes, either formally or So
cially, since he became President but he evil
IDENTIFY does not intend to ignore the President
any longer.
The Washington Post publishes an interview
the alleged bargaining which preceded the final
declaration Of the electoral count. Some of the
points made are these The Wormley confer
ence was not called to make bargain. The
conferees we're Ellis Of Louisiana, Henry Wat
terson, John Sherman, Stanley Matthews, Gov.
Dennison, Gen. Garfield, Maj. Burke, and some
others. Foster did not represent anybody. He
|
to Foster had been received long before. That
letter simply favored withdrawing the troops
from the South. 1t made no contingent prom
Uses. Maj. Burke read a paper at that confer
ence. 1t was document pledging the Nichols
Government, il it were sustained, to protect
the Republicans of Louisiana, and to insure
them peace and happiness in that State. 1t
was not an agreement. There was no bargain.
The paper simply set forth what Nichols was
willing to do, and was not signed by anybody.
The Republican Congressman who visited
Louisiana pending the electoral count and
were present at the canvass Of the votes, gen.
orally known as the visiting statesmen, held a
conference one evening last week. The object
of the meeting, says Washington telegram, is
understood to have been carefully to consider
the present situation in Louisiana, and the
duty which the visiting statesmen owe to the
Returning Board. The interchange of views
was informal, and no definite plan has been
determined upon. These gentlemen, and most
Of the Republicans in Congress, think that
nothing should be omitted that can be done to
sustain the Returning Board in their present
trouble.

Reached the fore cutter, and, in obedience to
an order from the Captain, commenced
TO start the water in the casks stored
forward to tighten the ship was assisted In 20
doing by the carpenter ar one Of the quarter
masters, who was afterwards drowned. The
mate suggested that sail should be made by
setting the foresail, and on getting his
consent went aloft and, assisted by Charles
Seaman, loosed the foresail and succeeded in
setting the sail, which remained but few min
utes until carried sway, and it was necessary to
cew up the port wing of the sail. The ship
struck heavily amidships, evidently breaking
her back, but she continued to drive on the
beach. The admirable management Of the
helm, assisted by the foresail, maintained the
hip'sposltion head on until fairly beached. Soon
after this the main-mast went, and she began
to break up rapidly, the first seas that boarded
her having destroyed or crippled all the re-
naming boats but the dingy, which was at
tached TO the starboard forward davits Upon
that boat placed my chief hope Of safety,
provided could maintain possession of the
boat Tor sending line ashore at low water
But while my attention was otherwise engaged
the boat was lowered and my purpose defeated,
while she, without any management save the
providence Of God, was borne to the beach
perfect "ark of safety" for the six or seven
poor fellows who had the courage to secure the
opportunity.
During the trying hours Of the day several
OF the Inflated passengers, bravely intrusting
themselves to the tide, evidently lost heart
with the passage Of the first breaker over their
heads, and, abandoning all hope, sank without
