' TJpdnthe economicolpollcy of protection, I
Hr. SUnuojt, in hie ..letter to Mr. CabiLi,
80tb October, 1828. caye, among other things,
«There arecoeee where & nation may beiso
for adthneed ih the prerequisites for a particu
lar branch of manftfhctnree that this, if onco
brought into existence, would support itself;
and yet, nnlesasided in lie nucentand infant

dence in pnblio protection, might remain, if
not altogether, for' a long time nkattempted,
or attempted : without, success. Is not onr
cotton manufacture a fair example? * *; *
The number, must be email that would now
prohonnce'thto manufacturing boon not to bate
been cheaply purchased by the tariff which
nursed it into it# present maturity'.”
« Shonjd it happen, aa has been suspected,,

of an extensive enstomer, or an anticipated
rival,- it would surely, in Such a case, be; in
cumbent on the suffering party, so fhr to mnke
an exception to' the << let-alone” policy as to
parry .the evil . by.. opposite regulations of its
foreign commerce.” . .i •
. General Jaoksok, to Dr. Colxmax in 1824,
uid: “So far os tho tariff bill before ns em
braces the design of fostering, protecting, and
preserving within ourselves the means of na
tional defence and independence, particularly
in a state of war, I would support it. • * •
Heaven smiled upon and' gave ns liberty and
ndependence and national defence. It <we
omit or refhse to use the gifts which He lms
extended to ns, we deserve not the continuation
of his blessings. He has filled onr mountains
and our plaint' with minerals, with lead, iron,
and copper, and given us climate and soil, for
the growth’ olhemp and wool. These beingtho
grand materials of onr * national defence, they
ought tip bate extended to them adequate and
fair . protection, that onr manufacturers and
laborers may bp placed in. a fair competition
witb those of Europe, and that we may hare
I within onr conntry a supply of those leading
| and important articles so essential In war.
: Beyondtbis I' look at the tariff with an eye
to the proper distribution of labor and revenue,,
and with a view to discharge onr. national'
debt. • VI will oak, What is the real sitna

The British Ministry.
- The Ministerial meatore for the total repeal of
the taxes upon paper,which have long interfered
with the publication of cheap books and news
papers inEngland, passed the’Honse. of Com.
moos with some difficulty, and has been re-
JcCted by a largo vote in the House of Lords.
The ostensible argument was, the Public Bcve.
cne could not afford to lose $7,600,000 which'
tils tax produced,'bat strong hostility to Mr.
VT. F.. Olacotoee, Chancellor of the Ex
cEeqner, whoae pet-project this meaauro was,,
a auredly was by far the atronger cause.
Mr. Gladstone, a man of mnch learning
and eloquence, who wonld have made an ex
cellent clergyman, but for his wretched tem
per, petulapt manners, and bitter tongue, came
into'public life, some twenty yean ago, as a
decided Tofy, and when the free-trade ques
tion.divided hli party, adhered strongly to
' Pan. In ,1862, when Lord Dnsr formed his
flrat Miolatry, ha offered a seat In the Cabinet
to Mr. Gladstone, who rejected it, because
Mr.DisaAELi, himself, was made Leader
of the Commons. He very materially helped
to overthrow the Derby Ministry, at the cloae
of 1852, by Mi fiercely personal and vindictive
attacks upon Mr, Duiaeu’s Budget, and, in
the next (Lord Aberdeen’s) Ministry, was
himself Chancellor of the Exchequer, from
.December, 1862, to February, 1855, when
Lord < Palmerston became Premier. The
Derby-Dlsrseli Ministry resumed office
in March,. 1868, and Mr. Gladstone ex
pressed himself rather in fkvor of their
views. He. took no office, bat accepted a
special mission to the lonian Islands, as Lord
High Commissioner Extraordinary. When
Lord Palmerston reconstructed bis Govern
ment, he gave the Chancellorship of the Ex
chequer to Mr. Gladstone, whose Budget in
volved the augmentation of the Income Tax,
a* well as the Free Trade Treaty with France,
and the abolition oft he Paper Duties, In the
Commons, this last passed with difficulty,
because It was known to be to, and in the
Lords it has baeh defeated, for thesame cause.
Itis possible that this very vote may lead to
a part© change In the Palmerston Ministry,
composed as it It of most incongruous mate
rials—of Peebles, Beformers, anti-Beformers,
Aristocrats,; affii Democrats—and that Mr.
Gladstone, whohts great wealth and much
talent, but no TelattoniMp with Mobility, will
be thrown overboard to aave the ship.

"B4Wi'U to* bra*est,boldest, and Mtt general
ittJSurope.lt is nottoo much to add tost ha
is slao the most poplar; Id the lato wsr in
Italy, his exploits between the Lake of Oomo
and toe Austrian army were too most effective,
if not the of the contest. This
man, tried by adversity and tanght by exile,
has taken up arms against Koyal tyranny in
the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, and, had he
openly avowed his purpose, 100,000 Piedmon
tese would 'have flocked to his banner in a
week; • ■ But' he was -compelled to do his work
very secretly, item a dread that the King of
Sardinia,'whose subject he now is, (he is also
a member of toe Sardinian Legislature,) would
interfere to prevent toe. expedition.. • !
- Viqfoß- Emmanuel, not' being at war with
toe King ol Naples, is bound not to give' his
sanction’to any expedition' in which a Sardi
nian leader or Sardinian troops are concerned.
Therefore, had he known of Garibaldi's in
tention, his Majesty wonld have been bound,
bythe jaw of nations, to have prevented it—
just as, anijfthe other day, -an Irish regiment
having gone-to increase the army of toe Pope,
whols at war with Victor Emmanuel himself,
toe British Government issued a stringent
proclamation prohibiting'enlistment in Ireland
for any foreign Power.
It is difficult to realize, however, that Gari
baldi could have left Genoa, on the. fifth of
May, with a mllltaffr iorce of over two thou
sand volunteers—including nobles, soldiers,
artists, physicians, down to peasants and work
men, occupying three steamers—without toe
knowledge, it not toe actual connivance, of Vio
tob Emmanuel. Moreover, one of Gabibaldi’s
lieutenants was to fellow with two thousand
more men. Gannon, onus, ammunition, provi
sions, and several million francs in gold, were
the impedimenta belli. Victor Emmanuel may
not have had official cognizance oi Gabibaldi’s
movements and intentions, but it is impossible
to imagine him ignorant of them.
, In point of tact, this expedition of Gabi
baldi’s may be of the greatest possible ad
vantage to Victor Emmanuel, whose ultimate
aim is to become King of all Italy—by eject
ing the Austrians from Vonetia, absorbing the
Papal temporalities, - and accepting toe Nea
politan territory, if the false and feeble Bour
bon who now misgoverns Naples and her de
pendencies, be alain or exiled. Victor Em.
manuel may nominally repudiate Gabibalpi,
but no one doubts that he will gladly avail
himself of the successes of that gallant leader,
when it suits his interest so to do.
The latest account Atom Garibaldi is that
he had defeated the Neapolitans 'in Sicily,
and was investing Palermo,, its capital.
In 1848, Sicily very nearly succeeded in get
ting rid of the Neapolitan yoke. The Sici
lians will receive Gabibaldi with enthusiasm.
Public Amusements.
Acadshy of Mubic.— Messrs. Wheatley Si
Clarke, of Arah>street Theatre, announce a
tinee, at the Academy of Mario, on a day to be
hereafter named, which they purpose giving, upon
the-assurance that the Japanese Embassy will
attend- It .will icolude operatic, dramatic, and
saltatory performances, and admission to all parts
of the house will be a dollar.
Abcr-stbmt Thbatb*.—“ The Colleen Bawn,’
by Boucioault, whioh has met. with great'roccet*
here, will be withdrawn at the end of the present |
week. The pteeo reallf merits its popularity, and |
has been put upon the stage with admirable taste
end taot. The aedng of Boooioault, Charles
Wheatlelgb, and. Mrs. PenUton is admirable
that of the two gentlemen, because of it? force and
propriety, and that of the lady on account of its
thoroughly giving the spirit of the original author's
conception. On Tuesday, Mr. W. 0. FrcdSrloks,
stage-manager, takes his benefit.
~ .Wai*nbt*bt£sbv 3 hkatbk.—Mr, Chanfrau per*
forms throughout this week, and is announced to
appear this evening la an Irish character, and also
in Nose, the se&ae where the latter is made to
figure in being ohanged to California. We do
most sincerely pity mch a thoroughly good and
lady-like actress as Mrs. Cowell beipg obliged to
play in such a wretched character of drama as
“Mose to California," and are surprised that its
performance, adapted for the Bowery, New York,
(to the worst days of that theatre), should take
place at Walnut-street Theatre. It appears that
the Japanese hare fcwirttsvited io-yMt Afa

McDoxouoa’s GaiXTiasl—A piece de eirt&n

and imitations, wiU conclude the evening's amuse
ments. Wen Hr. McDonough in Chestnut street
he would make a fortune—but, indeed, he seems to
a fair way of detog to in Bice street.
On next Monday, Nixon's Equestrian Company,
with the veritable Ella Zoyars, will commenee a
fortnight's performances at Walnut-street Theatre.
On this day week, at Arch-street Theatre, Morris
Brothers, PeU and Trowbridge's Minstrels, will
commence a season of three weeks. This tronpe
really consists of a double company of eighteen
first-class performers, from Boston—a remarkable
combination of most popular talent. The per
formances, we a T9 promised, will be ef the best de
scription, but the price of edwtalon will be only a
quarterdoilar.

consorts generally in that part of the world. They
landed at Barotonga, one of the Herve Islands, and
a recently published letter gives an amusing ac
count of their first and only concert there. The
tickets were paid for “ in kind,” the price of ad.
mission being one hog, or two pigs, or one turkey,
or two ebiokeus, or 25 0000 a nutß, or 20 pine ap
ples, Ac.—children half-price. The doorkeeper
had plenty to do in coileating the pay, although he
had no ohange to make. The o'onoert was orowded
to overflowing, but as the andlopoe were dressed
ia the. fashion of Adam and Evo, there was no
tearing of. skirls or ornihing of hoops in the jam.
The oonoert was a oomplete triumph, end gave so
much satisfaction that the females insisted upon
showing the usual sign of devoted friendship to
Miss Heffort, the female singer In the troupe, by
rubbing their noses against her own, until the shin
was worn off. - They then carried her in their arm t
to the house of Mr. 0111, the missionary. The pro
ceeds of the oonoert, at market prices, would have
realised 16,033 In New York, but not having the
ertioles there, tho troupe shipped all they wished
and distributed Ike remainder among the people.

A paragraph in ihe New York correspondence of
tho Philadelphia Inquirer, published a day or two
slnoe, stating that during General Dix's first
week's inonmbeney of the post ofiles tho revenue
rose four thousand dollars above the amount re
ceived during the last week’s revenue under Mr.
Fowlor,ia calculated to do injustice to the employees
In the office. It is true the amount did reach
about the sum slated, but the largo increase is at
tributable to the now order requiring circulars and
transient matter of overy description to be pre
paid by stamps. Tbe effect of this has been, that
persons sending large numbers St circulars at
stated intervals, have purchased larga quantities
of stamps in advance, and this additional sum bas
necessarily added, materially to the aggregate re
venue. Prom what I have learned at the post
office, from those capable of giving an opinion, it
may be estimated that at the rate at which the re-
I venue is now accruing, the department Is receiving
I about two thousand dollars per month above
[ what was received during the 'Administration ol

Governor Morgan is in town, with his family.
Be puts op at the Metropolitan, where, with ,Bo
publican grace and urbanity, he mingles freely with I

like tread and Governor-like smile, doubtless thicks
tho Governorship “ a good thing to do.” His Ex
oollsnoy is an aspirant for the piwltion soon to bo
vacated by Senator Seward; but he Is not In lavor
with Thnrlow Weed, and so long as the latter gen
tleman maintains his potent position with members
of the 'Legislature, especially tho.e from the
rural districts, it may bo reasonably Inferred
thet the Governor’s aspirations will not be resitted.

It appear) that the telegrsphis deepiitcii. which was
published in the papera »f Saturday last, stating
that the Japaneae' would arrive in this' city on
Thursday next, asdgivliga programme of tbolr

Saturday telegraphed to Washington to the oom
mlyslonen having the Jtpanese in charge, to as
certain definitely when they would arrive In this

was in the following words:
"The statement/in tie morning papers is oor
root. No programme hat been settled npon. The
Bmhafly will leave Washington on Thursday
next.”
Thus the Japanese may he expected In this city
fin Rriday afternoon next. They will be reoeived

programme in this elty has not been settled.

SPECIAL DESPATCHES to “ THE PRESS.”
Hoii. Hb.vrv 1), I' osteb had a long interview
yesterday with Senator Huhtbr, of Virginia,
ohalrman of the Committee on Finance in the Be

that, while Mr. Hurtur treated General Foster
with courtesy, the interview did not prove satU’
faotory to the lattor. Mr. Hcnter professes oonfi

I steady and inexorable hoetllity on the part of the

Administration will shortly demand authority to
make a new loan.

HOUSE OF KEPREbENTATIVES.
Tbe consideration ot tbe resolution, offered yes*
terday, by Mr. Winstafr, directing tbe Speaker to
issue his subpoena for certain witnesses to. appear
before tbe Covode Committee, was resumed.
Mr.' TrAih, of Macsaobusetts, said tbat with his
sense «f duty, he could never allow the minority
to diotate tho direction of business. He would,
boweveiftlisten to any suggestion from his col
league on the committee (Mr. Winslow), as he had
always done, with defertnoe; but, he repeated, he
would not allow him or the minority to diotate to
tho majority how Itehall pursue the investigation.
We aro, he added, responsible, and therefore
Bbould pursue our own way.
Mr. Clark, of Missouri, inquired—Did I un
derstand the gentleman to ssy* that the Republi
cans are in the majority in this House ?
Mr. Train. I do not include the gentleman, and
that 1$ enough.
Mr. Botelkb, of Virginia. Does the gentleman
Include any member of the Southern opposition ?
It is on imputation en the party to which! have
the honor to belong.
-Ms. Train. Perhaps X ought to qualify my lan
guage, and say (bat the Kepahlican party is re*
sponsible for tbe legislation of this House. We
snail be held responsible to .tome extent for the
oonduot of this committee. The resolution of Mr.
Winslow is out of order. .
Mr. Winslow thought his friend from Massa
chusetts, whose gentlemanly bearing be appreci
ated, had fallen into an error with regard to the
testimony ho (Mr Winslow) equgbt to bring out
relative to the Congressional election in Westmore
land couoty, Pennsylvania Instead of assisting
in tbe investigation, tho chairman (Mr. Corode)
said he had some personal knowledge of that dis
triot, and therefore declined to subpoena the wit*
nesses. It was a great outrage and a blot on tbe
RepubHoao party, which all the waters of the «oean
could not wipe out. The refusal was unjust and
iniquitous. He had been Informed that greater
frauds bad been committed by the Republicans
in Pennsylvania'thpn those obarged on the Demo
crats.
Mr Covode, of Pennsylvania, said be had never
yet refused to summon several witnesses, bnfc ob T
Jeoted to summoning thirty or forty who knew
nothing, which would entail an’ expense of $6,000
or $lO 000 The gentleman from North Carolina
had brought witnesses before the committee with*
out thoir being summoned, and the majority of tbe
oommittee did not object. *
Mr. Winslow was glad the gentleman had re*
minded him of this
Mr. Hughes, of Maryland. Give it to him!
Mr. Winslow said he hid asked that only eight
of tho thirty witnesses be summoned, and stated,
on his individual responsibility,' that it had
boon the practice of Mr. Covode to summon wit*
nesses without consulting the committee.
Mr. Cotodb replied that It was only this morning
that an order had been passed by the committee,
relative to summoning witnesses.
Mr. Campbell, of Pennsylvania, said the
oharges of the fraudulent election of Mr. Scran
ton came assassin-like from an anonymous
source, which Mr. Wlnslow/efueed to give to the
public.
Mr. Covode said be told Air. Winslow that he
wab willing to send for several witnesses, and Mr.
Winslow informed him that these witnesses had
nothing to do with the Government.
Mr. Winslow said he asked for no favor. Ho
stood on his right tabave the witnesses summoned
Air. Robinson, of Illinois, remarked that from
the organisation of the oommittee to the present
time, Mr. Winslow has Insisted that no witnesses
ought to be examined, unless the subject of sub
poenaing them was drat brought before the oom
mittee.
Mr. Covodb. My coarse has cot only boon pro*
tested against by the minority of the committee,
ljut by the President. [Laughter.]
Mr- Wibslow trusted that the Sneaker would
not hereafter tone his subfeeo* for witnesses until
tholst has first been, certified by the committee
ije alluded also to the faot that the testimony
against the Administration has been published im*
properly. He did not think it proper for him to
hsYO any agency in publishing tbe refuting testi
mony, coming, as he did, from North Carolina,
where tbe data of a gentleman is known, and the
proprieties of life regarded.
Mr. Robibsom I was only stating a fact sir 1
Mr. Gotoob replied that be bad particular rea
sons sometimes for cot communicating tbe names
of be Intended to examtee. one of
which was, that if they should bear of it, they
would get out of the way.
Mr Wmsnow spoke of tbe impropriety of Mr.
Cerod? baying giren as opinion ea to tbe testimo
ny of witnesses on vfce part of th*.Qoy ernmeut, hav-
Ifig'th'e street taquestion their vcraofty. to reply
to Mr. Covode’e remarks of yesterday la respect
to Mr Hart, the surveyor of tbe port of New York,
be said that Mr. Hart, according to information
from tbe Treasury Department, went to Burope to
Inquire into frauds, and that department endorsed
him as an nble and honest officer. He did cot go
abroad to avoid being summoned before the com
mittee There was no testimony whatever to im
peach the President.
Mr Joan OocßßiHs, of New York, said that
Mr Hart’s character stands above s'qspioion. Tbe
letter which Mr. Covode read yesterday, from a
men called Dunham, was a sell, and be submitted
that tho ohairman of the committee la Dunham
Brown. [Laughter]
Mr. Shermak, of Ohio, moved to lay the resolu
tion on tbe table.
Mr. Houston, of Alabama, demanded the yeas
and says He wanted to see who would shirk the
investigation.
Mr Shbrman said that he and his friends were
willing that there should be an investigation of tbe
oleotion of any one of the Republican side, if any
gentleman would rise In hia place nnd say that any
on* of them was elected by fmud. ' In reply to
Mr. Houston, be denied that tbe Republicans want
to avoid investigation.
Mr Bococe, of Virginia, said that investigating
committees were tbe creatures of the House, whiob
bos tho right to supervise their action, and correct
it if they nave done wrong. Tbe majority of tbi3
committee hid attempted to oonviot and criminate
officers of tho Government, and she minority are
obliged to come to tbe House and aak for power to
procure witnesses tor tho rebutting testimony. On
tho eve of a Presidential election, garbled testimo
r>y is sent forth to tbe country. 2Tbe committee
ODly seek for an investigation into the conduct oi
tho officers of tbe Government, aod wanted to fix
tbe wrong on thoir political adversaries. He
thought it would be better that Mr. Covode should
ae|t tpo discharge ef the committee from further
Rervioo. .
Mr. Winslow’s resolution was read that tbe
Speaker direct tho Sergeant-at-Arms to tutnmon
forthwith certain witnesses from Luterho county,
Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, and New Jersey.
ZJr. SrrrmaX withdrew hl» motion to lay on tbe
tal.to.
Mr. Harris, of Maryland, wished to know
whether these witnesses that Mr. Winslow pro
posed to examine were pertinent to the inquiry
Mr. Winslow thought they wore material wit
ncfws to the matters already before tho committee,
under tho resolution by which the committee was
ijppftluted.
'J he resolution was adopted by a vote of IQS yeas
against 4 nays The nays were Messrs Martin of
Ohio, MUlson of Virginia, Reynolds of Hew York,
and Stanton of Ohio.
Tbe House then proceoded to the consideration
of pi irate bills..
A number of private bills were passed.
Tfie House voted te go into Committee of the
Wfrolo oh the state of the Union.
Nearly all the members then left, tbe few re*
tnaining for general debate.
Mr. Stbwart, of Maryland, made a speech in
reply to his colleague, Mr. Haris, who, several
months ago, attacked the House of Delegates of that
State for censuring him for voting for the Re
publican Speaker, Mr. Pennington.
Mr. Davis, of Maryland, said the House of Dele
gates’ expression of opinion was a sheer piece of
impertinence. •
Mr. Stbwab? asked whether his oollesgue'
thought the people of Maryland would sustain
him.
Mr. Davis said ho had no mode of ascertaining
this till the fall eleotion; nnd perhaps nottfaon,
because be did not suppose his personal conduct
won dbe an# issue. But he had no doubt tb«t
when the time came he would find enough to su**
tain him in and out of his dlatxiot.
Mr Btswart replied that it was a libel to say
th»t Maryland would sustain him. Sbe was per
fectly sound on tbe slavery question. If tbe ques
tion in ta.ua between himself nnd bis colleague
were submitted to the people, the latter would not
got more than a corporal’s guard, end about os
many as Fremont received there. Hia volleague’a
course animated and streugthened the Republican
par<y.
Mr. Maynard, of Tennessee, in reply to a re
mark of Mr. Stewart, said ou reliable authority
that Mr- Fillmore does not and will not support
th« Chicago C( minces
Mr MunnibL, of Vermont, took tho floor,
wheu Mr. Gralge, of Nortfl Carolina, raised a point i
of order that there was no quorum. Ho was tired i
of making the bouse a debating society and ob
jected to the printing of speeches never delivered.
The very men who voted logo into committee In
order that the gas might be let .off had loft tbe
House. He resisted all appeals to withdraw his
objection •
The committee then rose and the House ad
journed.

Death of a p Reporter.— Mr. William
Dbnu died on Satunty morning, at an early hour,
after a short illness. Mr. Dunn was in the twenty
third year of his age, and has been'connected with
the newspaper press for several years. We knew
the deceased well. He was one of the first re.
porters of Ths Press, and was employed on it nntil
two or three months previous to his death, at which
time he filled a similar position upon the Ledger.
In the perpetual intercourse of bosicere—in the
frequent companionship of intimate an<L valued
friendship—we had learned to appreciate, in the
character ot Mr. Dunn, many of the noblest quali
ties of the head and heart. Gifted beyond his
years—a fluent and graceful writer, a flue rhetori
cian, and an orator of more than ordinary merit—
those that knew the deceased best, and most va
lued his friendship, always pictured and hoped
for him a bright future. Generous to a fault, to
that very generosity and good feeling whioh
overflowed his heart may be attributed whatever of
frailty he possessed in common with mankind.
We remember Mr. Dunn bb the warm friend o?
years—the genial companion in hours bfgsyely
and the sympathising friend in momenta of trouble.
Few men of bis years bad more devoted and sin.
cere friends. Few indeed, in his sphere of life, go
down to tho grave leaving behind so many bun*
dreds of friends, who valued his friendship while
living, and who now respect his memory while
dead.
