XII. „ ¥ „ The Legislature oftfco Stato of South Caro lina, at its first sessioh after-tlio pnSsage of the tariff of-1828, set on fodt itS doctriue of n’nlll ilcation; but a new Administration was about to he' iuangtiratod. abd actual resistance to the collection of thd revenue was postponod in tho hope of a moro peaceable remedy. Virginia sanctioned tho South Carolina doctrine, by a .voto of 18d.to 68, and Alabama took nearly the same ground. Georgia had previously taken a similar attitude to! thb laws and authority of the Federal.. Government, on her Indian ques tion. North Carolina. gave a check to the spirit of nullification i ’ holding an equal aver sion to the tariff with South Carolina, she, 'nevettholess/deelared herself opposed to all violent opposition' to it. The diicutsion of this great questloß Culminated in 1830, in the debate between Hatsk and WansTKE. On the I4th of July, 1832, Congress modi fied the tariff of 1828, preserving its. protec tive features id all tdio duty-paying schedules, though reducing the rates in a great many instances,’ and putting into the freo list above two hundred articles, which previously paid, import, duties—the first free list of any im. portance in the history of our system of com-' meree. It exempted from duty oil tropical products, and most of the commodities which the country could not produce—an illnstra tisn of the present French minister’s state ment that protection is the route to froo trade ; or, we might sity fVom a deeper and broader view of the subject, protection is. in itself the policy of ; for its princi ples demand the instant exoneration of all properly foreign commerce from the burden of imposts, and liberate’the home, industry,, which in good time practically takes off all du ties from that portion of international trade which is .improper and illegitimate, by,dis-. placing it .with the native product. But the passage of the act of. 1832 was un derstood,.to , indicate the settled policy of the country, and the controversy was, quickly shifted from the theatre of debate to the field of action.' South Carolina prepared to resist the law, and General Jaoeson issued his pro clamation of the 11th of December, 1882, and forthwith ordered all the disposable military force to assemble at Charleston, and a sloop of-war was sent to that port to protect tho Fedraai officers, in . case of necessity, in the execution of the revenue laws. Sonth Caro l’na now took the ground of masterly inac tivity* Georgia reprobated the doctrine of nullification,- and - Virginia entreated South Carolina’to wait nniil she and the Federal Go vernment could be reconciled. The Union party had force enough to make the nullifiers pause, and, on the' 31st January, 1833, at a meeting of the leaden. at Charleston, it was Resolved that they wonld adhere to their prin ciples, but, as Congress was in session, and there was a prospect of accommodation, ali collision with the Federal forces should be avoided, 1 in the hope of a satisfactory adjust ment. On tho 28th of December, 1832, Mr. Galhous resigned his office of Vice President, and went into the Senate in the place of Mr. Havre, who had been chosen Governor of the State. In January, he repelled, in the most , earnest manner, the imputation of any hostile feelings or intentions against the Union, on the part of Sonth Carolina. The State authorities, he asserted, had looked only to a judicial decision of the question, until the concentration of tho United States troops at Charleston and Augusts had compelled them to make provision to defend tliemsoivcs; and, straight way, offered and supported a series of nullification resolutions! Relief came from another quarter., Mr. Clav, on tho 12tb of February, offered his celebrated compromise bill, for. tho «permanent adjustment of the tariff.”. It provided that, where the duties ex ceeded twenty per cent., there should bo one tonthol’ tho excess deducted after December 31, 1833, and one-tenth each alternate year until the 31st December, 1811, when one half of the residue was to bo deducted, and after the 30th of Jane, 1842, the duties on all goods were to.be reduced to twenty per cent, on a home valuation, and to be paid in cash. Mr. Caihouk expressed his approbation of tho bill. The slgnatare ef the President was given to it on the 2d March, 1883. The history of the operation of this cornpro. mise act will bo found in the following facts t Under the tariff of 1828 the highest amount of foreign; goods imported for consumption was 83J millions. In tho year of the first jedne tlun/ ISRJT, fliey wei® r BZ r mUlloii*t'ln 1836, 22 mfllions; id; 1836, ■ 169 millions —an average of 122 millions a.year for these three years, against an average of 70 millions a year for the five years of the tariff of 1828. At the end of 1 tho "year 1886 there was a surplus in theVreasury of 46J millions, but this did not cbme.fiom the customs' Of this excessive im portation. Forty-four and a halfmiUUmsol'this sum came from the sales of the public lands. They never before yielded more than three mil lions in any one year. No* they were affbrd ing first id 1884 nearly 6 millions; in 1886 nearly 15 millions; and in 1886 within a frac tion of 25 millions. The revenue from the customs for these three years was less than it had been any year since 1826. . .. The banking history of these three years is this:. At the beginning of the year 1834, (the date ot the. first redaction of the tariff duties,) there were in circulation in the United States ninety-five millions of bank notes; the loans and discounts of the - banks amounted to three hundred and twenty-four millions. At the close of the year 1886 the'bank circulation had swollen to ono hundred and forty-nine millions; and the loans and discounts to above five hundred millions—an increase in each of these particulars of above fifty per cent, in three years, ~ ir«ah‘h* lari'at hla atand, hi the United States r ' PfBiifPTORT6AtK.v-15iegtiit Gennintowß t&i’ ant,.

It is due to their own status as professional men, to their own feelings as gentlemen, that no one shall make them rldlou lonsly assumptive by calling them Professors when they are nothing of the sort. It shall not be the fault of The Press if this niok-namlng be not discontinued.

A singular correspondence between Arohblshop Hughes, City Inspector Delavan, and Corporation Counsel Bronson, of New York, is published. The points are as follows :' ■ Mr. Delavan on the first of April oalls the atten tion ef the Archbishop to the act requiring clergy men and magistrates to report marriages solemn ized by them, on or before the first Monday in every month. On the 26tH of May the Archbishop replies. Be says; u Nothing is left undone in the Church to which I be lone which is in harmony with the best interest* of sooietfv'• Fercon* purposing to be nuimed are published in their reeprotive churches, on different public occa sions, previous to their matrimonial contraot. Every precaution is taken to guerd against the domestic) iniquities which are tdo often sanctioned by other official officers of civil matrimony. I have, therefore, to say* with the utmost respect, that many eases have ocouued, and are etitt liable to occur, in which ins for the Cathoho priest to remedy privately the evil* which the corruption of morals may have entailed, to far a* any remnant of private commence is concerned on the part of the delinquents. But I bee to say, ono© for all, thrit, unless usder coercion. I shaU never betray these or eimilsr weaknesses of fallen human nature whezpt turns up in the form of penitence. If the State appointed a eal«ry for oleTgjmen to perform marriage, or any other religion* act,.as its official agent. I can nnder«tand thnt the State might have a right to inquire iato the manner, time, circumstances. &0., of such act, and to hold its agent responsible to it* laws. There may be those who will admit the obhgat‘on. in the ab sence of these conditions, to render the State an sooount of their stewardship. But £ beg leave to say, with the utmost respeot for ail human legal authority, that lam not one of the number. lam prepared for a prison} or for a scaffold; but lam not prepared to obey a requisi tion which would violate the obligations of my con science. m ft country like this, in which it is said that civil and religions liberty is the right of every oitisen.’’ Mr. PolavAQ refers this letter, May 28th, to Judge Bronson, and doAres to know whether there is any exception allowed by the act in such oases as those referred to by the Arohblshop, or in any case what ever. The Judge replies that “ the statutes in question (law ß of 1847, p. 147, nod 185?. p. 107) make no such exoeptions as those whioh are mentioned or alluded to by tho Archbishop. They apply to all clergy men and all marriages in this oity." Mr. Delavan on the 31st of May sends to the Arohblshop his letter and the reply of the oorpora tLoppoonsel, and adds, “You will see that a com pliance with th® statuto becomes imperatively necessary; and should sgeb compliance not be mado, £ shall have discharged my duty is plaping the matter in the hands ef the reoogntaod an* tboiities, to act In the premises as they may deem proper." Mr. Starrs, the vicar general, replies * that the Archbishop Ib out of town, and on the 9th instant the returned, Tjrite^io' Me- UslfikVMrairmOOWffr - “* **l have no wish to olaim, either m mv Own name or in that of the relit ions community to which I nelonr* an? exception from the lawaof the state or of the Union. IFremains* therefore* for the corporation ooutteelana yourself to proceed in the matter as it is eojotned upon you to do by your oath of office." Mr. Delavan then writes to the corporation counsel to know whether the penalty cahbe en forced against clergymen for not reoordlng ; mar rfages; to whioh the Judge replies that “ the law makes no distinction between olergymen and other persona, and I see no reason why the penalty may sot be enforoed against any man who transgresses the lay* without regard to his calling.” Here the matte? rests at present.

[Correspondence of The Press,] • BaJjTihohb, June 20, 1800) The delegates dro beginning to grew impatient at the delay of the Convention in proceeding to business. This is attributed to the protected con test among the Southern delegations before the Committee on Credentials, in their efforts to beg their way bask into the Convention they un ceremoniously left at Charleston. I do not think there oculd be a better commentary than this upon the sincerity of Yancey and his Seoedera.’ They were either id earnest when they left tho Convention, end believed they were performing an unwelcome duty in defenoo of a principle, or they were cot. If they were in earnest then, it Is singular that they should be so anxious to affiliate with men who are as New June 20/1800 Yon, in Philadelphia, may be tired of bearbg word Japan, but it’s different here.

The baring, jags, and other artloles, In foot the entire contents of the Box, exhibited a degree of culture and skill Infinitely above what the world has commonly accorded to the natives of those parts. The Harpers have in preparation a work on the country, to be illustrated by the varloqS; traps contained in the box. It will equal Llvlngstonenr Barth.

(Prom another Correspondent.] New York, June 10. Almost Bingal&r robbory, which has not got into the papers, was porpetrated here a fow nights sinoe, next door to my own house. Between 2 and 4 o’clock in the morniDg, tho family boing all asleep in the houso, not having retired till 1 o’clock, a thief entered the second-story bath-room Window, near which there is a small roof, and stole watches, money, and clothing to the value of six hundred dollars. The watohes were taken from & buroau in tho ohamber where the master and mis re&s of tho establishment were slumbering cosily, dos a dot— as married peoplo should—and a wallet containing some fifty dollars was taken from the gentlemen’s breeobes-pocket. His tobaooo-bex was dropped oh the floor without awakening him, and the thief or thieves. " shod with the shoes of silence," abstracted whatever was at hand without “ let or hindrance.” Pillow-cases were taken from beds in unoccupied rooms, and in them the plunder was owned off quietly. At least, such Is the hypo, thesis. No chloroform was nsad. Indeed, the rob bery perpetrated with an ease and skill that shows preotioo, and would be deemed incredible in any novel of the Paul Clifford or Jack Sheppard school. The police have been consulted privately, and, of oourse, can do nothing about It. They know nothing, and suspect less. In Paris or Lon don, the perpetrators of such a robbory would be dTioovered in a day. The exercise of anything like onnning or sagacity would surely be successful, I drove out to the Oontral Park yesterday: it Is magnificent. I should think there were at least 8,000 equipages of various sorts—from barouches to dog-oarts. The keeper of one gate said that he had counted 1,140 vebioles whioh had, during the afternoon, oome through that entranoe alone. The number of pedestrians is very great. Of the Ham burg swans, four yet survive. In looking upon the beautiful oreafares, yesterday evening, os they glided over tho WAter and wire reflected from Its glassy surface, I thought of Wordsworth’s lines— " The swan upon St Mary’s lake Floats double—Swan and shadow V* We have been full of potitio&l meetings, banners, and processions. The Republicans have had by far the largest turn-ont; and at the "pov-wow” In the CoopoTß " wigwam,” was made the best and greatest speech so far. It was by W. M. Evarts, ohairman of the How York delegation to the Chicago Convention. It was able, simple, lurid, and eloquent. It was moro like the spooch of an English statesman than an American deolatmer— more suitable, perhaps, to have boon spoken in a parliament than before a mass meeting. It was dignified and courteous; doing justice to all men, accusing none. There can be no doubt that Mr. Evarts stands first among the Republican leaders. He commands universal regard and respect. We, the friends of the Douglas, are looking for ward with groat towards the proceedings in Baltimore. We believe that, under his stand ard, we can carry Hew York as well as Pennsyl vania and Illinois.

HPECUL DESPATCHES to«« Ae FgESB.” Baltimore, Jane 20. / * AFFAIRS OF lIONOR. The difficulty between Hindman and Hooper, of Arkansas, has given rise to a number of con flicting rumors relative to a hostile meeting. lam credibly informed that a ohallenge passed be tween them this morning, and that Mr. Hindman accepted it. As to any meeting, I have not been able to learn. The officers of the law are on the alert. There is also a rumor in relation to a hostile meeting between Yost, of Virginia, and another delegate from Virginia, named Brannan, The difficulty originated out of the oonduet ef the Vir ginia delegation at the Charleston Convention. flirty and personal feeling Is running so high In many quarters that a number of duels seem to be inevitable. JOHN SLIDELL, that distinguished controller of Conventions, manager or men, and purveyor of politicians, 4 here as the wbippor-ln of the Administration. In this work he i 3 seconded by Mr. Cobb of the Treasury. Cons devotes h!s attention to the Be* cedors, while Slidell dictates to the North ern delegations. These gentlemen are stock ing the cards so as to insure the defeat of Doua* '.AflfrTh°y will take anybody, from Jefferson IwSrdown to Job Lani, to accomplish this. If they fail horo, they do not disguise their purpose to indireolly aid Abe Lincoln. Aut Cttsar aut null its. PIERRE SOULE. This brilliant Louisianian is here at the head of tbo Louisiana delegation, asking to be admitted ioto the Convention. Soule, you know, is as ar dently for Douglas to-day as he was in 1856. He had a hearing last night before the Committee on Credentials, end, I am told, made a most eloquent and convincing speech in behalf of his claim to a ; oat in the Convention. A FAMILY QUARREL, The only item of business transacted at the ses sion of the Convention this morning was the family quarrel In the Missouri delegation. This was no. thing more than a repetition of the old Benton and anti-Benton feud. Colenel Huntbb, in the course of the debate on Monday bight, said the only anti- Demooratlo vote he ever oast was when he voted to put Thomas H. Benton out of the Senate. The morning papers published the apeeoh, attributing it to Governor Kino, of Missouri, who, was a warm friend of Mr. Benton daring his life. Governor King, at the opening ef the Convention this morn ing, denied the authorship of the remarks iu an animated and bitter speech, which called up Mr. Clark, of Missouri, another antl-Bentcn man, who proceeded to deliver a philippic against Governor King and Bentonlam generally, and was only stopped by a point of order raised by Ludlow, of New York, and sustained by the Chair. Thus the matter now stands. THE PHILADELPHIA OUTSIDE DELEGATION is very large, and a majority of them arc working for Judge Douglas. The Keystone Club is at the Fountain Hotel, and its members exerfc an immense Qqtflido pressure. They serenaded Mr. Vaux and Mr. Cassidy last night, or rather this morning, at ao unseasonable hour. In addition to the mem bers of the Club, I notice Mr. Hon. Charles Brown, George H. Martin, J. B. Owen, J. K. Gamble, and others of youroity, in town. Among those from the interior of the State who may be considered as among the most ardent of Douglas' friends, may be mentioned the Union Democratic Club of Harrisburg, who are bore* to tbo number of one hundred and sixty. They are the espooial supporters of Mr. R. J. Haldbman, and aro under his particular protection. BEHIND THE SCENES. The wire-workers are very at the soaiMlke paoe with which the Convention moves. These delays favor Douglas, as every train that comes adds hundreds to the immense crowd that row swarms around the hotels and Convention, de luding his position and advocating his claims. Stryker, of New York, is electioneering for £bykour ; Peter G. Washington is violently for Guthrie; wbilo tbero is a strong body of New Yorkers boring for Dickinson. Between Dickin son and Seymour there is an irrepressible and bit ter contest wbioh may slaughter both of them. I have uo doubt that the South will present either Dickinson or Seymour, with the view of gaining (bo thirty-five votes of Hew York against Douglas. Tho Douglas men, however, laugh at this Idea and nay that it will foil of its purpose. THE NORTH CAROLINA DELEGATION, it is now eald, will vote for Mr. Douglas on the d3clsivo_b&llot. In case Mr. Guthrie and Mr. Hunter should bo set aside for Dickinson or Sey mour, the Douglas men oonnt on recruits from Tennessee, Kentucky and Virginia. —TQg _ __ Will be postponed until after the nominations are made. New York will advocate the plan, although the South will oppose it. Shonld Douglas get the nomination, Slidell will endeavor to fasten a budget of theories on bis back as bard to carry as lhe Old Man'of the Sea, while in the event of the nomination of any other man, the Douglas men will tie him down to a popular sovereignty record. The Administration men care little about the plat form eo they slaughter Douglas, and will gladly embrace any possible alternative to his nomina tion. GEORGE N.SANDER*, of New York, whose telegraphic eccentricities were 6o expensively annoying to Mr. Bocbanak, is in town and laboring for Douglas, without the fear of a removal before his eyes. I wish some ef your Philadelphia officials had a little of George’s pluck, TOR SESSION OF THE CONVENTION Will, in pll probability,extend through tho present week. It U thought that it may OQQupy a portion of the next. J. R. Y. [From another Correspondent.) Baltimore, June 20. WILL CUSHING VACATE THE CHAIR. Committee on’Credentials havobeon busily occu pied during the reoeßS, (until &P. M.) Mississippi coats not being contested; will be glVea to the pre senting delegates. Texas and Florida are rejeoted. The Louisiana delegation, headed by Pierre Soulr, will be admitted, and considerable excite, meat exists in view of the action of the Southerners thereon. The rumor that Ualbd Crsnixa will va cate the Presidenoy of the Convention grows in force; and while no satisfactory reason is givon for euoh a coarse, it nevertheless Is re ligioußly believed by a large number of sane people. His friends say be knows wbat be Is abont; and some of the Northwestern insiders and outsiders deolared themselves rejoiced at the prospect ot his resignation. They satrloally intimate the passage of a voto of thanks to him on his retirement. Gene ral Oushino having been seriously questioned on the matter, disconcerted the anxious quoriat with a placid smile of denial. BEOXS3IOK. , It is believed that some fifty delegates will leave the Convention on the presentation of the report from the Commlttoe on Credentials. In some quarters this intimation creates much uneasiness'; but the effect of such notion is ridlonlonsly exagge rated. Among those to seoode are delegates from Massachusetts, New York, and Pennsylvania; among whom are Lorinq, Jostaa Randall, Gil more (BidLEit’s substitute), and Laukr of Berks county. The names of these men are oanvaered in no vory complimentary manner, either as regards thetreelvos or the localities they represent. It Is not fair, however, to visit the pins of saoh political heretics on the places and people from whloh they oome. It |s intimated this morning that Virginia will not secede.' HORATIO SEYMOUR Is the object of considerable oanvasslng on the part of those whose business Is discussion. This move after Governor Betmour’s positive and high-toned withdrawal of bis name—is a trap to distraot tho New Yorkers. The wire-workers of the Adminis tration aot in tbe belief that the man of the Now Yorkers is greedy or selfish to an extent whloh oan only be measured by the trlokery of these said wire-workers. But some of the men from tbe Em pire State, without any dlsrespeot to Seymour, re gard the bringing forward of bis name as a direct and indeoont insult to Daniel 8. Dickinson . Even men who would uot go heart and hand for tbe Sage of Blngbnmten, are not willing, from State pride, to allow his extensive service to the Demooratio party to he obscured for any mero purpose of trickery. DANIEL 8. DICKINSON Is a favorite patriarch with many New York lea ti ers. They say Seymour ought not with propriety be brought up before him; and others s«y that if Dickinson is trqttod out first, he certainly could not be taken off the course to allow Seymour take possession of it. Then, again, others—who take their tone from John Clancey and the New York leader— while admitting Dickinson’s service in the put, aay that he is past sorviae now. TUB FRIENDS 01* JOHN C. BRECKINRIDGE are growing more loquaoious. Some speak well and not wisely, and others wisely though not well; that is, these latter say nothing against any other candidate, While expressing a preference for the gifted young Kentuokian. The New Yorkers, to whom his name was suggested, say that as Dickinson is too old, Breckinridge is too young, for the responsibility. Borne speculative Pennsylvanians are of Opinion that if the Vioe President would engineer the tariff bill through, no delegate from the Keystone State would dare vote against him, If indeed they all would not be bound to go for him, and at onee. The Pennsyl vania nigger is as imperial a ruler as the expa triated Ethiopian who plants rice or picks cotton. MASS MEETINGS Wore held .last night. At the Yancey stand', a Quaker, who wa* quoted m u deranged, u made a Vociferation. An Individual, named McMasters, of Now York, ahjwuwrt’ Mnnlf ns jepJ»eo«tl*g the national Democracy of that city. Of course, 1 this little bit of rilly vanity put the crowd good humor; and In the laughs they had at his expense, forget the nonaeasioa! twaddle with which heat tempted to I>ore them. He was frequently inter pted with satirical queries, and had to re ire covered with a shame which doubtless is iis glory. Who u this McMastxbs ? Not the tall editor of the eld Freeman’s Journal. Ho was at a Douglas meeting Utaly in New Tork . Many people thought that it was the same person. Several speakers at this stood wore preventefi from being heard by tha desire to see Yarchy himself en the one hand, and to faoe Phyoe against him on the othor. There were loud calls for tho latter during tho evening. It will he re membered that, in the tilt between Yarcey and Pnvon at the Southern Convention at Montgome ry, the latter got tho batter of the Alabama dls unionist. ins NEW YORK DELEGATION Is the snhjeot of continued abuse and affection from all horo. The seceders 1 friends m the Con vention aro tho cause of the delay. It is to give time to tamper with some and bargain for others of the New York men. John Cochbanb antiol pates a sudden burst up, while George N. Sanders says New York will remain firm and truo to tho Democracy and Douglas. Many en thuslastlo but sensible men from the Northwest declare that New York will vote for the Little Giant as long as Illinois. Joan Glancey saye they have voted flfty-sli times for him, and will do it all ovor again. THE ft HERALD’S ” HEARSAYS. A statement, yesterday, to the effeot that Boger A. Prvor, Hebsdell V. Jobrsok, and Aleiss deb H. Stephens, had agreed upon a new plat.' form, prepared by the first-named gentleman, for the Demooratfo platform, Is a ridiculous canard Pryor emphatically denies it; says he does not know, and hns never seen Mr. Johnson, and ho has not oonsulted with Mr. STRPnENa on sueh a subject. His presence in this oUy, whioh might have been anticipated at this time, is regarded by seme green ’nus as confirmation of the Herald’e despatch, whioh, as I said, contains not one word of truth. AT THE DOUGLAS HEADQUARTERS Great enthusiasm prevails, whioh betimes also shuts out the words of the speakers from the ears of the auditory. SENATOR PUGH, of Ohio, made one of his olose and effective speeches. JOHN A. LOGAH, of Illinois, also carried the audience with a dash, lag and earnest appeal. CLEHEBT AND VAU.ANDIOBAH, of Ohio, advocated the Little Giant to the Bonthem Democracy. IRA C. MITCHELL? of Pennsylvania, held that the South, after having had the North to fight their battles in defenee of Douglas’ dovtrines, will not now ungratefully strike him down. MS.
