WEDNESDAY, JANUARY .. 1854.



NBw York, December 10th, lssS.
A democratic Speaker of the National House
of Representatives has been elected. Congress
has convened and the President has sent in
his annual message. There you have the 20
litical chronology in nutshell; too much alb
breviAted, perhaps. You will recall my indi-
vidual opinion in my last letter, that Randsll
(of Proteotiouist Pennsylvania enjoyed the
greatest likelihood Of being elected Speaker,
that Carlisle was the freest trader, in his opin-
lens, and that Cox (the New York city humor-
list and demaeogue) was trying to stTaddle the
Issue, in hope Of pleasing both sides and CON-
ing in frst-best. Everybody but Carlisle and
those under the influence Of his strong Ps'Soa-
Rel and his confidence in his success, has been
isappointed-some, bitterly, some, happily.
The republicans of Mr.. Randall's own State,
that is, the ultra wing Of the prOtectionist re-
publicans, were obviously too anxious to have
Mr.. Randall Ia democrai) elected Speaker.

The reason for this action on what NAV
with little latitude) be called the New
Bourbon element of the democracy, is not far
to seek. In the Presidential canvass Of 1880
that in which General W. 5. Hancock was
the democratic nominee as opposed to the late
President Garfield, Mr. Henry Watterson Of
the Louisville CohTisr-,j0aHHGl, who had the
writing Of the democratic PLATFORM - inserted
plank declaring for g tariff for revenue
only" This had been done for years. In fact
the democracy has been long looked on as the
coming propagandist and reformer in favor Of
free trade-f it was ever to get the chance
by getting into control in National legislative
and Executive Halls. As that campaign pro-
eeeded the outlook became very blue indeed
fer the republicans. The democrats had nom
mated a good aud true man las Mr.. Dana OF
the SIN says weighing $50 peunds,') and
the republicans were laboring with a candi-
date of probable, if not certain CTeia NojiiieI-
no;oriety, dissentions IL their own ranks and
a wavering public sentiment, with the chances
against them. Suddenly some republican gen.
ius Cname yet unknown) was hit with the
happy idea that the democracy was illy-pre-
pared at that late moment, to support its "tar-
if for revenue only" plank-it had never had
| TO do SO. The issue was made. The cry went
M, as in one night from all the republican
stump and platform speakers and Ward and
State workers" that tariff for revenue only
would ruin our industries and throw 500, 900
workmea out Of employment The absurdity
Of the republican tariff utterances OF that cam
psign, the incongruities aud Inconsistencies
advanced by them for effect, would ifcollecied
to-day, paralize those who uttered them. The
