Among the prominent arrivals at the
Pulaski House yesterday were Rev. E.

Officer Harrington had a lively encoun-
ter in the Old Fort district last night. He
attempted to arrest negro who was ere
ating a disturbance, when he was set
upon by the crowd and a rush made to
release the prisoner. The plucky officer
made free use of his hickory, and after a
hard battle with the burly gang brought
off his man. He was followed by about
a hundred of the Old Fort denizens,
threatening him all the way to the bar
racks. He called upon one of them to as
sist him, and succeeded in this way in
getting four of them within the sally port,
where they were nabbed and lodged in a

For the benefit of those who may desire
to anticipate the season little, it might
prove opportune to state that although

that she has appeared in America from

The tariff bill submitted by Mr.. M"rri-
son seems t" have been framed with wis
dom, for while it receives the unqualified
endorsement OF sound Democratic Jour
mails it even EFFORTS the approval of some
prominent Republican papers. The New
York Times SAYS:
There is no reason why it should not receive the
support of conservative Republicans, except that II
comes from Democratic source, and that iaci
would by such support. be deprived OF all pohtic"
significance or effect
The New York Heroid says:
The Morrill, bill promises to modify many of the
exorbitant features of the tariff, TO favor our
manufacturers by giving them cheap raw materials
and is at least step in the right direction
The Charleston .Ne'es and Courier
saws:
Hitherto the almost insuperabe difficulty in the
way of revising the tariff has been the determined
and organized resistance of persons who believc that
their prosperity depends upon keeping the tarn un
changed To avoid opening the door TO almost end
less debate and amendment, Mr.. MOrrson provinces
for general reduction of duties. This puts all in

go to the country rather than accept any compro-

The Baltimore Day says:
The Morrison bill deserves the support of every
real Democrat There is no reason, in fact why
any Republican welded TO the theory OF " a
tariff for protection, with incidental revenue, =
should not vote for it, and are by no means sure
that II passed in its present shape by the House II
would not receive enough votes in the Senate to
make it law, provided the President did not veto
it. 1t Is good enough bill to be made law but
if it fails in that, il rthe best tariff plank the Dem
ocratic party has hau for years.
