The Tariff.

The discussion of the tariff question
in Congress has brought out all the OBJ
jections against the bill reported from he
Committee of Ways and Means OF
course, there have been objections urged
on the part of Republican members, rep
resenting different constituencies and
different interests, which may be more
or less affected by the schedules EN-
braced in the measure. 1t could not be
otherwise. But the bill considered as a
whole, which must be the case, in the
final action on it, is about as fair as it
could well be made. The central thought
was to preserve the protective principle
and formulate the bill so as to secure the
application of that principle SO as to
promote American interests and en-
courage and benefit American labor.
The general good to be accomplished by
the measure will compensate for partial
disadvantage to any local interest. 1t is
an American measure, designed for the
promotion of American interests, and in
this broad sense, it is a bill that will re-
ceive the support of the Republican
party. Several Republican members
have spoken against particular features
of the bill, as it was their duty to do, if
they believed that some industry or in
terest of their immediate constituency
would be injured by it; but when it
comes to voting for it as a whole, or vo-
ting against it, the Republicans will
support and pass 1t.

A Scene in the House.

Last Saturday witnessed an eXcitino
scene ON the floor of the House of Rep
resentatives. A glass manufacturer
named Crawford, from Pittsburc. had
reported that Mr.. Wilson, of West
Virginia, and Bynum, of Indiana. had
declared in a committee meeting that
$l5 II month was enough for the paw of
glass blowers. Mr. Bynum in a speech on
the floor of Congress denounced Craw-
ford as IL liar and perjured scoundrel y
Mr.. Bayne, representative from the
Pittsburg district, read a letter from
Crawford, defending himself from the
assault of Bynum. That gentleman
said that he had denounced Crawford
as ''liar and perjured scoundrel' the
day before, and now he wanted to mod
ify the expression by saying that he was
as much entitled to respect as the MEM
Der who had defended him. The Ian
guage was taken down, and by party
vote the censure of the House was or
dered to be pronounced upon Bynuln
Accordingly he was called to the front
of the speaker to receive the censure
Nearly all the Democrats rushed up be
hind him as a kind of body guard
When the members were requested to
be seated by the speaker, the Demo
Gratis refused to obey the request.
Speaker Reed then proceeded to read
the censure After it was over Bynum
sneeringly said he regarded it as ode
coration." There was great excitement
and confusion during the proceedings,
and it had the appearance of IA duplica
ton of the scenes in Congress during the
troublous times of 1S606l
On Monday Mr.. Wilson arose to speak
to a personal privilege. He is a gentle
man of delicate sense of propriety,
great purity and dignity of character,
and enjoys the confidence and esteem
of political friend and foe He recited
the facts of the case, and then referring
to Mr.. Bayne, said that he awaited any
remarks the gentleman had to say. Mr.
Bayne Immediately arose and expressed
his regret at what occurred on Saturday.
stating that he should not have
said what he did had he known the facts
as related by Mr.. Wilson. Thereupon
Mr.. Wilson expressed himself as satisfied,
and thus the controversy closed.
There seems to be but one opinion as
to the brutal language of Bynum, who
is an excitable and reckless speaker, and
but one opinion of the dignified, manly
and considerable course of Mr.. Wilson.

To the Point.

AS number of the tax payers of Au-
gnsta and adjoining counties paid their
faxes last year in coupons, and have
been very much annoyed by processes
and State action because of it. it will be
interesting and of Importance to them
to read the following paragraph from
the decision of the U. S. Supreme Court,
rendered last Monday in the Virginia
coupon cases
That any lawful holder of tax receiv-
able coupons who tenders such coup ons
in lsnyment OF taxes or debts due the
State and continues to hold himself
ready to tender them, is entitled to be
free from molestation on account of such
taxes or debts, and that the various
State statutes passed for the purpose of
restraining the use OF the coupons for
the payment of taxes and other dues to
the State and imposing impediments
and Instructions to that use, and pro-
ceedings instituted for the purpose of
establishing the genuineness of the
bonds, do, i'm many respects, materially
impair the obligation of that contract
and cannot be held to be Valid
This ought to settle the matter in con
troversy. 1t certainly will relieve from
anxiety or concern. those who have paid
their taxes in coupons.

The card published by Messrs. McCue,
Peyton. Roller an Allen. relative to the
call for the County Republican Conven-
ton, refers to a controversies going on
among the Repu blicans of the county as
to reorganization under the am ended
plan of organization; as adopted at the
last State Convention. All of these gen
tlemen were earnest supporters of Gen.
Malone last fall Their complaint is
the same we made last year, and because
of which we steered clear of the pri-
maries and the convention, and opposed
the ticket thrust upon the people,
through such unrepublican methods
The reasons they assign for publishing
the card, are identical with those which
entered into the protest of the vIRaIN-
IAN against the Norfolk Convention.
The amended plan of organization
lodges the same power with the count
chairman that the old plan did, aud the
same use is being made of it that was
made last fall. The Republicans If the
State will never submit to the exercise
of such arbitrary power by one man, it
matters not who he may be.
There is no present necessity for such
unwise action. and no excuse for it. 1t
is plain that it has reference to the fu-
ture, and the purpose is to keep the ma
chinery of the party in the hands of
Gen. Malone. in order that he may
select pocket delegation to the next
National Convention. That is the para
mount object, and that he will lever be
able to accomplish. To be fore warned
