Tk Senate Tariff BUI, Trotn th TYibr In ilie House oi Representatives ut tlic last Session, the Tariff bill, as originally reported, raised the rates of duty about 25 per centum. Thia was a great gain for our industry, but the eober calculations ol the Committee on Ways and Means were swept away in the confusion of debate, and the bill, as passed and sent to the Senate, was materially chained. Still it was an improvement upon the existing tariff, and we should have been satisfied had the Senate adopted it. But the history of protection In the last session is ouc of dispute and and disap BOiDinient. The Senate postpoued its conside ration, and this year the finance Committee iave ollcred a substitute' lor the House bill, elaborate anl thorough, which still lurtlier lowers th1 averace duty upon our Imports, of the points ot dnirrence, the following ure the more important: The House bill imposed a duty of ,r0 cents on woollen clotln, which the Senate bill would reduce to 45, tlionih it pr6perly retuin? tue luty upon the staple oi 10 cents per pound, ud 10 cents ad valorem. Cloth importers will demand a still further reduction, aud we tea r, may pet It. On carpets the Senate bill strikes out the ad valorem rate, and re-enacts the specific duty ot the present tariff a decided reduction from the House bill. On cigars, Which the House would rate aU$2r0 per pound, the Senate bill places a duty of but$2, xetHHiinp, however, 60 per cent, nd valorem. ' Theidutyon flax in the House bill it $20 per ton in the Sena'e bill it is but $15. A duty of 3 cents per square yard, and 30 per cent, ad valorem is proposed on linens, while the House bill fixed the rate at!6 cents. The duties on teas and cotlue are doubled by the Senate bill, one nf the tew instances of an increased rate. Tue 20 per cent, ad valorem upon books is reduced to 15. The Senate hill, however, is much better than the present tanir, and than that proposed by Commissioner Wells. Cotton manufactures are well protected; the rates of the House billon eteel, iron, dress-goods, and worsteds are" re tained, and, we rcjrret to add, those on coal. "We should not complain if the bill, as it stauds, were adopted bv the Senate; lor it is not likely t be improved by amendments. Yet the fart that the present tariff does not prevent our peo ple irom cxptrding about $00,000,000 per annum for imports ought to convince Codctivss that an increase of at leant 25 per cent, ou the existing rates is demauded by our industrial interests. . We must prote"tournianufacturesthorouehlv if we would elevate our standard of labor. Unskilled labor, employed in the ruder toils, does not obtain half the wages paid to manufac turing workmen, and the real labor-power of the country cannot be utilized without a tariff that shall necessitate its development. To reap the value of our strength, we must use it, ana not depend upon the manufactures of other nutions. If here is our granary, our market, here must be our workshop. Ho long as foreign nations, by the help ot free trade, are able to Jceep down the pricejof American manufactures, the wages ot the laborer are kept down, and it is time that every workman in the land should know that the enemies of protection are the instruments of European monopolies, and that it is they who would give England, France, and Selslum unrestrained permission to undersell us in our own markets. Slanders In Congreat-The President De nounced as an Aasaaain. From the Timet. When the Hon. Ben. Loan, a member of Con gress fron1 Missouri, introduced his resolution charging I resident Johuson with sundry high crimes and misdemeanors, the Tribune re marked that he was evidently a "weak-minded person ambitious to figure iu the newspapers." Stronger-minded men than Mr. Loan have not been free from this ambition; but few men of any mind at all would be eager to figure, either la newspapers or in Congress, iu precisely the character which Mr. Loan has selected for his debut. His resolution came up for consideration on Monday, and Air. Loan read, according to the fashion of the day, a written speech, repeating and amplifying with due emphasis the charges made iu his resolution. One of these charges, as presented in his speech, was that of com plicity in the assa-sination of Pi esident Lincoln, upon which the lervid Loan dwelt with a zest peculiar to the school of politicians to which he celougs. It happened by some extraordinary accident that one member of the House, Mr. Hale, of this State, was listening to the speech; and what is still more extraordinary, it struck hjin that a charge of assassination, made in his place, in ordinary debate, by a member of Con gress, agaiiost tue President of the United States, -was not in order. Mr. Hale accordingly called the attention ot the Speaker to the subject; but the Speaker ruled that it was in order, inas muck as the resolution and the speech were both in the nature of steps preliminary to impeach ment, which was a proceeding expressly war ranted by the Constitution. The Speaker being clearly right, Mr. ..ale did not press that point. But he did press another upon Mr. Loan himself. He appealed to him whether he did not deem it due to his own self-respect, as well as to the dignity ot the Houe and the nation not to make such a charge without submitting at the i-ame time something in the nature of evidence to support it. Mr. Loan did not. The matter, he said, would be Investigated by the proper Committee, and, he did not doubt, to the entire satisfaction of the gentleman from New York. Mr. Halo begaed permission to ask him, further, whether Mr. Loan did not think he ought at least to say that he dad knowledge of facts which would susiain the cnarge he had made. But the lambent Loan refused, not to answer, but to allow the question to be puf and as he had possession ot the floor, it could not be put without his consent. Mr. Loan is evidently unconscious of bavine done anything discreditable to himself in which he may be right or calculated to reflect discredit upon the country, which is not so clear. His personal opinion ou the point is a matter of little consequence, but it is more auudficant that the House of Representatives mould seem equally indidcrent to the effect of such infamous calumnies, uttered by its own members, who at the same time refuse to be responsible for them, upon the President of the United States. Whether they believe them to be true or not, the members of the House sym pathize with and share the spirit which prompts tuch assaults. The party end to be accom plished and the personal resentments to be gratified, blind the majority of Congress to their effect upon the reputation of the country &t home and abroad. If the charge is believed to have the slightest foundation in fact, the , United States stand before the world with an accomplice in the assassination as their Exe cutive nead as their only orpan of communi cation aud intercourse with otaer nations. If it is not believed, Congress must be deemed less careful of ita own dignity than any company of pot-house brawlers in the world. 9 Mr. Loan's resolution is still before the llouse awaiting its action. But the Judiciary Committee has been directed to inquire into J the general charges against the Presideut, and this among them. We trust it will make that inquiry as prompt as possible. It cannot evade it nor delay it without lending its influence to calumnies which it permits to circulate without investigation. It is impossible that such charges as those made by Mr. Loan, in his place In Con press, should be wholly without effect upon the public mind, both ttt home and abroad. We THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH. PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, presume thaf cvry intelligent man convcrmnt with the fneth ot liimoty will have no diilinulty in branding tliem a utterly lile and sUndef ous. But thoiiHhinis will f-ee the chains w ho have no information upon the subject to which tiiev relate, and upon all such those chf;ns wilt have an offer!. They may rot fully ixWeve them, but thej will not know rhfm to be un true; aiid they will have at I'-asi the stispiciou Ihnt the head ot this republic, charged ith the execution ot its law, reptesentii'tr its dipnit.v, its choraetor, and its power to all others nations ot the earth, is an accomplice in assassination end murder. The Judiciary Committee owe it to themselves and the country to ninke a prompt report upon this matter. They should lose no tine in making full !uve -ligation into it and In re quiring Mr. I.oi n to make good the char?e he has, made, or ar least to bring to their know ledge the evidence ou which he makes it. We risk very little in sajiua that he has not the slightest particle ot" such evidence. He ha made the charge in the mere wantonness of party lectins, to gtatif'y his personal and political resentments, and to promote, by what he deems the most eligible method, his own political advancement. But the Committee hhould lose no time iu aocertaiuine the trutn, myt in givinsr it to the country. By every day ot needless dela they will make themselves ac complices in this outrageous aud disgraceful calumny. The ! Dec I a I one of the Supreme Court 'I'lielr I'ollltral AiilKtlou. Irom the Herald. The two decisions pronouncd in the Supreme Court of the United States ou Monday last the one upsettine the test oath of loyalty of the State Constitution of Missouri in reference to clergymen, teachers, and lawyers, aud the other declaring unconstitutional the test oath ol Congre-8, a applied to attorneys seeking ad mission to practice before the Supreme Court- are of the highest importaure in tlvir political application. This court, os in the Milllgau de cision, five to fodr, has thus decreed that the Missouri State Constitution, in its test oath of loyalty, Is an ex post facto law, and in effect a bill ot attainder, and therefore null and void. On the same general grounds, the test oath of Conaress is declared invalid, with these addi tional objections, that lawyers holding no specific appointment arc not officers of the I niied States, auo tin-more not subject to this Congressional oath: and that hilc the Presi dent's pantonins power t unlimited, his parion restores the person concerned to hU full rights ol citizens-bio. lVr Cinn pie, an Kxecutive pardon to Jt-tt. Davis would render tiini at once eligible for the next Presidest-v. reinstating him in ihe political position iu which he stood as a loyal citizen uufore he went over iuto the treasou of the so-called Confederate S'.ates. Thesp decisions result irom the concuirence in opiniou t Justice- Field, of Caliiornia; Clif ford, of Mam.-; Nelson, efJiev" York; Crier, of Pennsylvania: and WaMie, ot fieorgia live. The dissenting oninion delivered bv Ju.-tice Miller, of Ioa, niis r,pported bv Chief Justice Chase and Justices ?wane, ot Ohio r.ud Davis, ot Illinois. They hold that the Corjuressioual te.-t oath is not an ex prstf'tr!o law nor u bul ot attainder, but "a quaiiiicadon whicn Couuress bad a right to prescribe as necessary to an at torney,"' aud that the patdon ol the Presideut has no effect iu relieving him froru the require ment to take it." In retard tc. the Missouri oath these dsentiua .ludgos hold that iu the Federal Constitution, upon this t-ubject, "no re straint is placed on the action of the Elites. " but that, "on the contrary, in the lur.guae of Story (Commentaries on the Constitution), the whole power over the subject of religion is left ex clusively to tue State Governments, to be acted upon according to thir own sense of justice and the State constitution. " Who decides when such doctors disagree? The majority and here the irajorlty is only one in 'both cases goo with the Milligau deci-donf; and all these dectsior.s, while they remain unreversed, are the supreme law ot the laud. What, then, Is the bearing ot thete decisions upon the all-important question of Southern reconstruction? According to the Millfgan di-cistou there can be no exigency in the Govern ment lustily 'ma the overstepping ot the strict landmarks of the Constitution. This pronounces the conduct ot Iiesident Lincoln in assumiug the powers of Congress, in the absence of Con-yre.-s, "to raise and support armies" to save the life of the nation, unjustifiable. As the old Pharisees held that man was made for the Sab bath and not the Sabbath for man, so this Milli gau decision affirms that the country was made lor the Constitution and not the Constitution for the country. According to these two later' decisions neither Congress nor nay State can establish any qualifications of l:yalty bearing upon the participants in the late Rebellion short oi a regular tiiai and conviciion. This maybe a strict interpretation of the Constitution; but as u party accused of treason must be tried in the district where the overt act was committed, and as under this requirement no jury can be found to convict, how is Congress to mate any discrimination between loy al cWzens and Rebels in tne work ol Southern reconstruction? There is a remedy suggested in Mr. Justice Miller's dissenting opiniou upon tnee two late cases, and in the case which he recites, ot an appeal to this Supreme Court from a fine im posed upon a Catholic priest of New Orleans tor violating a local ordinance relating to funeral rites, restricting them under the penalty im posed to the Obituary chapel. Upon this ap peal the Supreme Court ot the United States re plied that ' the Constitution makes no provision for protecting the citizens of the respective States in their religious liberties. This is left to the State Constitution, and laws. Nor is there any inhibition imposed by the Constitu tion in this respect on the States." This lato decision touching the test oath applied to a Catholic priest iu Missouri reverses this former decision; and here lies our remedy. The deci sions of the Supremo Court are not biuding upon the Court. It, therefore, the latest deci sions of that bony are all tending to the conclu sion that the late war tor the Union was not only a failure, but a blunder, which has left us constitutionally just where we stood the year before the war, we have only to reconstruct the Court in order to reverse these oecisions, and to secure such interpretations ot the Con stitution as will proclaim the great fixed fact that the war tor the Union was ucithe a blunder nor a failure, but a great revolution, the issues ot which have become the Constitution to the Supreme Coiut. This is one remedy, and there is some reason to suspect that it Is the remedy contemplated in Concrees in the proceedings instituted for the President'; impeachment and removal in order to reach this court. But there is still an other remedy. It lies in the pending Constitu tional amendment. Upon this plattorm, in the name of General Grant, as the candidate of the Union war partv. we are content to leHvethe existing deadlock between Coneiess on the one hand, aud the President aud Supreme Court ou tue other, to the verdict of the people in 1808. uut i there not the damier iu the interval that the Supreme Court mav proclaim some other cieciBions interdicting all other proceedmss iu atvi ot118u'bi rn reconstruction We can J.r?i,rt aVPreheud, however, that this sTL i Vft'J decision running in the chan U.i n. t8. tb,ee'ls strentheniug the impeach ment party in both Hous of Congress Mexico and Juarez. From the World. It is claimed by Orteea that Juarez is not the rightful President cf the Mexican republic; that his term of office, as fixed by the Mexican Con stitution, has expired; that he is consequently a private citizen, possessing no more legal autho rity than any other Mexican citizen; that the same article of the Mexican Constitution which terminates the official life 0f Juarez makes Ortega his rightful successor, until a new Pre sident shall bo chosea by the pe.0pio. There seems sufficient evidence that this statement Is in most parts correct; but does it thence follow as Ortega claimu, that the United States are bound to ignore Juarez ami lei-ogni.e Ortesra as the head of the Mexican Government? This question Is o! thr very iravest practical moment; for if our Government .aids. Mexico tin the re covery of her Independence, it must n-cognie some authority in that country with which it can treat, find it ought not to make a mistake. Wi are clear that President J. Iiukoii is right in conunuitii. to recoirinz1 and support Juarez. not iilistnudiui! the expiration oi Irs tprm. It if necessary that our Government Rhonld pro ceed on soiiieMirc ground of si tiled principle; and there is notlnnir octtcr established, as a irhiciple of our diplomacy, than the policy ot abstaining from the domestic dispntesof lorolgn states, Hiid recognizing the facto Govern ment. Wo have recocnized, lor example, all the numerous Governments whk;t, have suc ceed done another in France since the begin ning ot our own, without ever concerning oui-elves about the riahtltHnes ol their origin. To take the instances which have occiured in our own time, we rei ocnized th French republic of 184S withe ut inquiring whether it was legitimated by the constitution of ISliO, which it overthrew; and, with pq'inl leadinet-s, we recognized Napoleon the Third, despite the fact that his term a President of the ltcpublic had expired, and that he con tinued to rule France by destroying the consti tution ot 1H4, which the peopieol that countrv bad established, ann he had sworn to suppoit. W e are no more douikI to look behind the tact that Juatez is at the hea l ol the Mexicm Gov ernment and seeks hisauthoruv in the Mexican Constitution, than we were, in 1852, to look behind ihe laet that Louis Nao deon was the actual ruler ot France, and explore thecoma tution he Mibverifd. iu a vain search tor his ncht. It is no business of ours to sectle ques tions ot disputed authritvin toreien countries. Y bethel Juarez or Ortega shall b recocuized by our Government is riot pioperlv a question of right, but a question ot fact. Which is th actual ruler? Juarez is in the exercise of all the actual authority which he oosessed before Ortega contested h'S claim; Ortega is iu the netualocrciscot no autuoritv whatever. Juarez commands, as be has tor the'last fouryear-i, the forces ot the Liberals in arms aeainst the inva ders. Ortega has not a company of soldiers to back bis pretensions. Our Government would make itself ridiculous to recoenize, as the Gov ernment of Mexico an unsupported adventurer who can produce no othfr warrant than 1m contested interpretation ot a scrao of the Mexi can Constitution. The United States cannot flfscme to expound the Mexican Constitution. lfey are told bv the Government de facto that Ortega misinterpret- it. an.i sets up an un founded claim: and so lone as it is made by tue defavio Government, thev are bound to accept the statement. The Constitution ot Mexico pro vides thai on the expiration of the term ot the President, the Chief Justice for the time beinc, in octuult of an elected successor, be comes FiesicUnt ad interim, dui Juarez assens thai, when his term expired, there was :io Ch.et Ju.-tice Orteira Olivine- tied the country, abi-ndoneii his dutus. and thereby ,1 abdicated I is off ce. So iouu as this reasoning suuiri-o a- ii"! ween juarez ana tne Mexican people, it mutt b r'eemert conclusive between ! nnu ana the Uniteo Mates; the oulv iest we can appl; to his locic being b's actual posses sion of ti e Government. It may be plausibly objected to this argument that the principle it assumes would have bound us to recoruize the empire, the Goveroineut of Maxizmnau having ben for a long period the (tc facto Government oi tbe countrv. We have two replies. First, it is too la'e to reopen the controver.-y respecting the Monroe doctnue, as our Government and people have so det-.ded it as to preclude a reversal ot their judgment. The Monroe dectnne is an icexpuusrable tact ot the snuiition, and we must accept its logical ccmeqi.rcce?: one of which is, that the em; ire was, iu the purview ol orr Government, non existent. It is all in vain to ay that we cannot annihilate a tact by shutting our eves. The irre versible acceptance of the iilonroe doctrine by this coi.mry was a1- much a tart as the exist ence of the empire: and the permanent tact was destiued to destroy the temporary phan tom. This briugp us to our second repl i. winch follows mere easily from the ordinary principles ol diplomatic reasoning. Whi n there are two confiictiiifr Goveruments in a countrv, one of which v.e have betore recoeuized, we do not trunsier the recognition to the new claimant, unless we are satisfied it has elements of per manence. Tnis principle han always been acted on in our foreian intercourse, and there was no reason why it should have been departed from in the case of Mexico. We were certain, from the outset, that the Mexican empire could not stand, the measure of our certainty being the inflexibility of our determination to maintain the Monroe doctrine. We could not, therefore, do otherwise than continue our recognition of the republic, and to recognize Juarez as its head so long as the republic had no other visible repre sentative. In the transition from the moribund and neaily onunct empire hack to a reorganized republic, we may properlv render such friendly assistance as the actual Government sees tit to accept. The chief peril of Mexico, during this critical juncture, is the ravenous ambition of her rival political chieis; aud as noueol the compel, toi ot Juarez has any claims touuded on the popular choice, none has any which the United S;atcs can pect. Oil what ground could our Government justify itself in paying any moie deference to Santa Anna, or Miiaihon, or Ortega, than to any other private citizen of Mexico? Juarez has claims, in the present pos session of actual authority, to which noue of the others can make any pretensions; and we may reu-onably assist him, not indeed in gov erning the country permanently, but In main taining order while the people are exerting their prerogative through the electioD3. It a fair election displaces Juarez, aud puts in one of his livals, we are bound to give the same friendly support to his successor that we now accord to him. but uutil tbe popular will has been leeaily pronounced, it would be absurd, and destructive ol a:i order, lor us to counte nance any of his competitors. The abiding i-urse of Mexico has been the fre quent overthrow of her Government by ambi tious military cbie'talns. Unless she can be secured nguinst this evil, t-he has no future. Iu affording succor to her weakness, we must apply our plaster to the diseased spot, and make It as broad as tbe sore. We mut uphold Juarez against (he violence o revolutionary leaders until thvrehas been a fair election. We must, then, uphold the Government so elected, uutil, at the expiration of its legal term, the people, by a nev. election, honestly conducted, either giant it a new lease of power, or replace it by new officers, who in turn must, in like manner, be guaranteed until Ineir successors are cho?eu according to law. Our nuaraotee will be sim ply a guarantee of the right ot the people to choose their own rulers, against tho violence ol military chieftains. And unless we grant this succor in this form, Mexico will be re manded to irretrievable turbulence and anar cbv. and our interference against the empire a freak ol mischievous and disgraceful quixotism. 1S67. iiARIES 1867. 50 Styles and Size3, at Low Prices.
