that the tricks of national legislation in this
country we're confined exclusively TO the
lower branch OF Congress, but the passage
BY the Senate of its tariff bill by gross de
ception which induced Senators Blodgett
and Riddleberger to believe that they want
ed to pair with each other, though
they were both opposed to that
bill, shows what an egregious error
that suppositon was. Unfortunately, in the
case referred to, error did not die among
her Worsh!ppers.

settlement Of the State debt in Virginia has
spread beyond the borders of the State,
aud the advantages Of speedy settlement
are being set forth and commented upon
pretty extensively in the papers of the com

to say that the hopes for the settlement o.
the debt are not stimulated by the state
men;s Of he Richmond Dispatch, to the et'
feet that no man seeking an office in Vir-
GINA will dare express himself IN favor OF
more favorable terms than those contained
in the repudiating Riadieberger bill.
