THE PATTER OF LITTLE FEET
Up with the sun at morning,
Away to the garden he hies,
To see if the sleepy blossoms
Have begun to open their eyes ;
Running a race with the wind,
With a step light and fleet,
Under my window I hear
The patter of little feet.
Now to the brook he wanders,
In swift, and noiseless flight,
Splashing the sparkling ripples
Like a fairy water sprite.
No sand under fabled river
Has gleams like the golden hair;
No pearly sea-shell is fairer
Than his slender ankles bare;
Nor the rosiest stem of coral
That blushes in ocean's bed,
Is sweet as the flush that follows
Our darling's airy tread.
From a broad window my neighbor
Looks down on our little cot.
And watches the n poor man's blessing,"
cannot envy his lot.
.13.e.has pictures, books and music,
Bright fountains and noble trees,
Flowers and blossoms in roses,
Birds from beyond the seas;
But never does childish laughter
His homeward footsteps greet,
His stately halls ne'er echo
To.the tread of innocent feet.
This child is our " speaking picture,"
A birdling that chatters and sings,
Sometimes a sleeping cherub—
(Our other one has wings :)
His heart is a charmed casket,
Full of all that's charmed and sweet,
And no harp strings hold such music
As follow his twinkling feet.
When the glory of sunset opens
The highway by angels trod,
And seems to unbar the city
Whose Builder and Maker is God,
Close to the crystal portal,
I see by the gates of pearl,
The eyes of our other angel—
A twin-born little girl.
And I ask to be taught and directed
To guide his footsteps aright,
So that I be accounted worthy
To walk in the sandals of light ;
And hear amid songs of welcome
From messengers trusty and fleet,
On the starry floor of heaven,
The patter of little feet.
From the Barrisburg Patriot
FOSTER'S TARIFF RECORD.
HIS DEVOTION TO THE INTERESTS OF PENN
SYLVANIA
We deem it a duty we owe alike to truth and jus
tice, to place before the people of Pennsylvania. in
connected form, the tariff record of the lion. Henry
1). Foster. the Democratic candidate for Governor,
whilst that gentleman held a seat in the Congress of
the United States as a representative from the West
moreland district. His record on this important
subject needs but few words of comment at our
hands, inasmuch as it speaks for itself in language
so plain,nnequivocal and direct that he who runs
may read" and understand.
We venture the assertion, however, that no gentle
man who ever occupied a seat in Congress from the
State of Pennsylvania, certainly no Democrat, can
beast of such a record as that furnished by 'the ex
tracts we have taken from the speech of Mr. Foster
in 1846, and his subsequent course, in opposition to
the efforts that were made to repeal the duty on iron,
so covertly and stealthily, by those who were willing
to strike down the interests of Pennsylvania. Mr.
Foster. has been both consistent and persistent in his
advocacy of the iron interests of his native State for
a long series of years, showing that the docrines he
advocated on that subject were the result of convic
tion, and not the mere ebullitions of a fickle fancy,
got up for political effect. His bold, manly, clear
and convincing argument against the proposition of
Mr. Holmes, of South Carolina, in 1846, to repeal
the duty ou railroad iron, is a masterpiece in itself,
both in point of close reasoning and logical deduc
tion, whilst it demonstrates the fact that he is deeply
imbued with a just sense of the value of the great
staples of his native State.
We confidently appeal to the people of Pennsyl
vania to support Mr. Foster for the office of Governor,
'without regard to party predilections or prejudices,
because he is the man to direct the destinies of this
great Commonwealth at a time like the present.—
We ask the patient perusal by all classes of com
munity * of Mr. Foster's course in Congress on the
subject of the tariff polioy, which he advocated,
and then let them vote for him or against him, as
their judgments may dictate.
It must also be borne in mind, that during the
lastsession of Congress, when the tariff bill was under
discussion, Gen. Foster, true to his former convic
tions of duty, , was on the ground, at Washington
city, laboring with earnestness and zeal for the
passage of a tariff bill for the promotion and protec
tion of the cherished interests of his State. He
spent week after weak at the Federal Capital, labor
ing to effect the passage of a tariff bill, thus testify
iny his devotion to the cause ho so ably advocated
when in Congress. Such devotion as he has at all
times evinced' in behalf of the interests of Pennsyl
vania must necessarily beget in the bosoms of his
fellow-citizens a corresponding devotion to him, and
that devotion we feel will be signally manifested at
the polls on the second Tuesday of October next.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF
THE UNITED STATES, ON WEDNESDAY, DE
CEMBER 18, 1841, MR. HENRY D. FOSTER,
OF PENNSYLVANIA, MADE THE FOLLOW
ING REMARKS ON 1..11.E BILL TO REPEAL
THE DUTIES ON RAILROAD IRON.-- Vide
Congressional Globe., Vol. 14, 2d ;sessinn, 28th
Congress, pp. 44, 95:
Mr. FOSTER, after adverting to the unexpected
andhasty manner in which the bill had been brought
forward, and remarking that Pennsylvania had been
accustomed to consider the tariff question as one to
be treated on general principles, proceeded to express
his regret, that his colleague [Mr. E. J. Morris] had
alluded to the resent canvass in Pennsylvania as he
had done. As a member of this House from Penn
sylvania, as a native of Pennsylvania. he felt proud
of thatgreat State, and he would nut alloW himself,
here or elsewhere, as his- colleague bad done, to
. charge the people of Pennsylvania with actin , *
under false or fraudulent motives on the subject acting
under
tariff. If the Whig party had carried the State
Mr. F. esteemed that party so highly, that, before
the National Legislature, he would not have been
found making such a charge. He knew the manner
in which the canvass had been conducted ; and when
the gentleman came to speak of it as it had been
carried on in his (Mr. F's.) county, and to declare
that the people had acted under such influences, he
had mistaken them altogether; they had acted un
der no delusion. The tariff question was the one
which, in the late canvass in Pennsylvania, had
deeply agitated the public mind. They had been
told by their Whig friends there, and generally
throughout the country, that by the election of Mr.
Polk the iron and coal interests of Pennsylvania
were to be trodden down; but he had. declared to
them that the profession that the Whig party were
the only friends to the protection of the iron interests
of Pennsylvania was hollow and unsound ; that at
the last' session of Congress, in the Senate of the
United States, the first blow at the iron interest had
sprung from a member of the Whig party from
Maine; and although a distinguished Senator from
Georgia had made a pilgrimage to Pennsylvania to
tell the people of that State that protection to that
great interest could only be looked fur from the Whig
party, yet when they turned to the Journal of the
Senate, they found the vote, of that Senator recorded
against the tariff of 1842, and his vote recorded in
favor of the gentleman from Maine to reduce the
duty on railroad iron. Had he been mistaken when
he told the people of his State that for a fair, equi
table, honorable adjustment of the tariff system
they must not rely on the Whig party alone? What
did we see now? The tirst movement at the present
session of Contrem attacking the great interests of
Yenhsylvil i nia, did ittomo from the Democracy of
the North, the South, the East or the West? No;
but from a prominent Whig member of this House.
Now when his colleague undertook to say that 170,-
000 of the people of Pennsylvania had been deluded,
he told him that he did not know that people. If
' the gentleman confined his remarks to the people
'of his own district, it was very probable that
might have some personal reasons therefor.
But ; the people of. -Pennsylvania had had all the
lights of the people of the whole Union, a four-horse
wagon would not hold all the documents thrown
into that one district by Whig writers and Whig
orators.
But he was sorry, as he bad observed, that his
colleague had dragged before this assembly any
question of this kind!, and he knew that neither the
gentleman nor any other man who might have at
tempted it at the last election, bad been successful
in misleading the people upon the question of the
tariff or any other. The question of protection of
the iron interest of Pennsylvania, was one deeply
felt by Pennsylvania. It might not perhaps be
known to this House, that, in Pennsylvania alone,
there was one establishment in the western part of
the State,
where they could manufacture railroad
iron to the amount of between Ito 100 tons per
week. Mr. F. also refre t red-to one or two other
establishments which were manufacturing to a like
Tey had been told by the gentleman from South
Carolina Ibir. Holmes) that
,Pennsylvania at one
time introduced large quantities of imported railroad
iron. For ten years prior to 1841, railroad iron had
been admitted free of duty. Then no railroad iron
had been manufactured in the Union; then no cap
ital had been invested in this country in its menu-
facture. But let him tell the gentleman from South
Carolina that Pennsylvania when she did import
that railroad iron free of duty, paid twelve dollars
more per ton than she could now manufacture it for.
It had been free of duty for ten years ; foreigners
then had control of the whole market; domestic
competition there was none. Then she had paid
sixty dollars per ton for railroad iron; and ho
pledged himself here that her manufacturers were
ready to contract now, where contracts could be made,
at forty-eight dollars per ton.
Mr. HOLMES interposed, and asked if he under
stood the gentleman to say that the T railroad
could now be obtained here in any quantity ?
Mr. FOSTER replied in the affirmative.
*
Mr. FOSTER continued. The establishments in
Pennsylvania and in Maryland were already pre
pared to make large contracts for the furnishing of
railroad iron. But had not the gentleman from
South Carolina, who yesterday had defended this
bill with so much warmth told them that he was
willing that the tariff should so be arranged as to
yield sufficient revenue for the government, and that
all he asked, and many other gentlemen who agreed
with him was to bring the tariff to a revenue stan-
dard ? Was he to understand the gentleman from
South Carolina now that he wished railroad iron to
come in free of duty? Was that the revenue stand
ard which the gentleman from South Carolina, and
those who acted with him, were disposed to make?
lie was glad that the gentleman from South Carolina
had thus early given them information as to the
course ho intended to pursue as to the question of
the tariff. The gentleman went for a revenue stand
ard of duties: would the gentleman tell him how
much railroad iron it would be necessary to import
under the provisions of this bill, to raise revenue
sufficient for government'? To morrow the gentleman
might tell his friend trout New England that the
revenue stamdfrd " up Jn woollen and cotton goods
amounted to the same as it did in the gentleman's
action on iron; and he might make a similar declar
ation to gentlemen from New York, and from other
States engaged iu the manufacture of salt, iron,
wool, cotton, and sugar. Although the gentleman
professed to be in favor of a revenue duty," he
(Mr. F.) should tell the people of his State, at least,
that the gentleman, by his action, was in favor of
having foreign iron come in duty free.
All that Pennsylvania asked was a fair, honest
settlement of this great question ; she wanted it ad
justed in some manner to give security to her citi
zens. She had always maintained the doctrine that
tae majority were to rule, and that their laws were
to be submitted to. Front 1833 to 1842—a period
during which all her industrial pursuits had been
stricken down down by the operation of the compro
mise act—no arm had been raised there iu defiance
of the authority of this government; but daily and
hourly they saw the whole of these interests going
to decay and destruction; and they waited until the
appeal made to the patriotism and good sense of the
American people prevailed in the passage of the
tariff of 1542, under which all her Interests were
beginning to revive and look up. She now occupied
the same, position she had occupied before the pas
sage of the compromise act of 1813. The principle
I of the tariff of 1842, as far as related to the maim
! facture of iron, of any description, or of every
I description, was nut too high.
lle would state it as a reproach to the American
character, that, in his own State, foreign railroad
iron has been laid down within six inches of the
finest beds of iron in the world. Such iron abounded
iu Pennsylvania, Missouri, Tennessee, and New
Jersey; and yet foreign railroad iron had hitherto
been imported, and laid down ou all our railroads.
lie wanted to see the time arrive when, by the per
fection of machinery, by the increased skill, and by
the increased capital of Pennsylvania, they would
be able to successfully compete with foreigners with-
out any protection at all. Ile knew that the time
would come; but he would tell gentlemen from the
South that it never would arrive unless adequate
protection was given to our great interests in the
beginning. To show the beneficial effects of pro
tection, he woulduiention that in 1833, '39, and 'lO,
when railroad iron was brought in free of duty, and
when it was imported largely iu all the States, it
rose up 10 and 00 per cent; but now, since the tariff
of 1040, it eau be bought 12 per cent. cheaper than
it was in 1838, '39, and '4O. He \MS really sorry to see
his friend from South Carolina [Mr. HOLIIESI fall into
the arms of a coalition which lie believed had already
begun between some of the gentlemen of the South
and of New England ; but let him tell the New Eng
land gentlemen, that if they deserted Pennsylvania,
and threw themselves into the arms of the gentleman
from South Carolina, they must not expect the aid
of the former when their own interests are in danger.
Pennsylvania voted for and with them in the pro
tection of their cotton and woollen manufactures;
and he would ask them who it was that passed the
tariff of 1842, by which such temple protection was
afforded to the important interests of New England?
When—let him ask the gentleman of New England
—did Pennsylvania ever falter on the question of
protecting domestic industry ? Why then, when an
attempt was made to strike down at one blow her
most important and vital interests, should it be
countenanced by those to whom Pennsylvania had
always given her support? Why was it, when
Pennsylvania was alone singled out from all the
other States, and her, interests Oct up as a mark to
be shot at, that he found Soule of his friends from
Note England joining in the attack? if they were
disposed to desert Pennsylvania now, let them not
hereafter say, whatever the action of Pennsylvania
may be in regard to a tariff, that she has deserted
them. If the majority of that House thought the
duty on railroad iron, or any kind of iron, • was too
high, why, let it be reduced in a general bill; but
when they were asked to strike down this important
interest, not for the sake of the farmer, or the
mechanic, but for the sake of large corporations,
then he hoped they would pause and consider whether
they would he consulting the interests of the country
by adopting the measure. He was glad that thus
early in the session a prominent member of the Whig
party had brought forward a measure that would
show the people how far they were willing to protect
their interests, while they would exempt from taxa
tion wealthy incorporated companies, and impose
its burdens on the industry of the country. He
wanted to know, and Pennsylvania wanted to know,
if there was a disposition in that House to strike
down her most important interests, while the inter
ests of other portions of the Union were left un
touched ; and he wanted the vote on this bill to
decide that question. As he observed before, he
trusted there was no disposition in any part of the
House to sanction a measure such as this. Had the
introducers of this measure given, or could they give,
any reason why railroad iron should come in free of
duty, in preference to cotton or woollen goods? Had
they given any reason why it should come in free in
preference to cotton bagging? Ho knew that he
might listen in Vaia for any good reason that could
be given for the passage of this bill. It might be
that this question would come up in a general bill
while ho was a member of the House, and then he
would be ready to meet it on its merits ; but if the
tariff was to be attacked in this manner in detail,
according to what the gentleman from South Carolina
[Mr. Ileums] avows as his cherished policy, where
would it end ? To-day the attack was on railroad
iron, and next week the assault might be on woollen
or cotton goods. Then salt, and next the sugar of
Louisiana and lead of Missouri would be attacked
in detail. He was not in favor of going behind the
bushes and attacking the tariff in detail. If it could
not be sustained as a system, why, let it go down ;
and if that policy which the country had cherished
above all others could not be sustained in all its
parts, he was for letting it all fall together.
ON THE SECOND OF JULY, 1846, DURING THE
DISCUSSION OF THE TARIFF BILL, MR.
FOSTER OFFERED THE FOLLOWING IM
PORTANT AMENDMENT.—Vide Congression
al Globe, Vol. 15, Ist Session, 29th Congress,
Page 1049:
And be zt further enacted, That if at the end
of the first year from the time this act goes into
effect, there shall not be realized, under its provisions,
an amount of revenue equal to that produced during
the fiscal year ending the first of July, 1842, under
the act entitled 'An act to provide revenue from
imports and to change and modify existing laws im
posing duties on imports, and for other purposes,'
that then this act, from and after the expiration of
the first year after it goes into effect, be inoperative
and void, and the duties on imports shall thereafter
be levied and collected in accordance with the pro
visions of said act, approved the 30th day of August,
1842 ; and the said act, approved 30th August, 1842,
shall thereafter be revived and continued in force as
fully and effectually as if thiS act had not passed ;
and it shall be the duty of the President of the
United States so to declare by proclamation."
AND AGAIN, ON PAGE 1051 OF THE SAME
VOLUME, WE FIND THE FOLLOWING:
Mr. FOSTER moved to strike out the following

of iron and steel, or other metals partly finished,

We have cited the above amendments, offered by
Mr. Foster, to show how vigilant he was, and how
desirous to save the interests of Pennsylvania when
these interests were jeopardized by its enemies;
and, although these amendments were defeated by
the combination that was then formed against the
tariff of 184.2, the fault of the defeat of that measure
isnot chargeable to the account of Mr. F. He placed
himself in the front rank of the defenders of the
tariff of ISI2, because he sincerely believed that the
repeal of that law would be detrimental to the best
interests of his State.
Such men as Mr. Foster the people delight to
honor, and we repeat it, that the yeomanry of the
Keystone State will testify their appreciation of much
a representative at the polls in October next.

V NICKERBOCILER MAGAZINE
FIFTY-FI FT EI VOLUME.
LOUIS GAYLORD CLARK
The present number closes the fifty-fourth volume of
the KNICKERBOCKER, and while we thank oar patrons for
their past favors, we shall strive to increase their number
by redoubled care and effort in every department of the
Magazine. We expect in our next number to be able to
announce a series of articles on Popular Astronomy, by
the most distinguished writer upon that science in the
land. Stories and Pictures' of the Mason will be com
pleted during the year, and the two volumes will contain
the best sketches, tales, poems, etc., that can be procured
for the entertainment of ourreaders.
PREMIUM FOR 1800.
In order to increase We already large circulation of the
KNICIEERDOCZER, we publish this month a splendid line
engraving of Frith's picture of • Merry-Making in the
Olden Time,' which we shall present exclusively to the $3
aubecribors to the Magazine for 1860, whether old or new.
The subject represents the pastimes of our ancestors, and
is eminently of a genial, domestic character. The plate,
engraved in England at an expense of 2000 dollars, is
entirely new, measures twenty-five by nineteen and a halt
inches in size, contains thirty-nine figures, and is beyond
comparison the finest work of the kind ever offered as a
premium in this country..
The engraving of Frith's picture of Merry-Making in
the Olden Time, represents the humors of an English holi
day in the county in those good old times when the men
wore cocked-hats and knee-breeches, and the women stays
and hoops—a costume not essentially differing from the
corset and crinoline of the present day. Almost in the
centre of the picture and a little to the back-ground is a
country dance on the green, with a hard-featured fiddler
perched on a high seat, and another musician in a tie-wig
standing by him, playing with all their might. On the
right two bouncing girls are gaily pulling toward the dance
a gray-haired man, who seems vainly to remonstrate that
dancing days are over,' while a waggish little child
pushes him forward from behind, greatly to the amusement
of his spouse,
who is still sitting. at the tea-table, from
which ho has been dragged. On the left, under a magnifi
cent spreading oak, sit the 'squire and his wife, whom a
countryman with his hat off is respectfully inviting to take
part in Chu dance. To the left of the 'squire is a young
couple on the grass, to whom a gips} with an infant on her
shoulder is tolling their fortune. Over the shoulders of
this couple is seen a group engaged in quoit playing, sod
back of the whole is a landscape of gentle slopes and
copses. The picture has the expression of gayety through
out and the engraving is splendidly executed. It is fresh
from the burin of llou, not having yet been published in
England.'
TERMS.—Twenty-five cents per number, or $3 per an
, nom, in advance; Iwo copies $3; three copies $6. The
postage on the Magazine (twenty-four cents per annum) to
be paid in all cases at the office where'll, is received.
Ada - To every $3 subscriber tar 1860, inclosing twelve
cents extra in stamps, will be sent, free of postage, a copy
at the new and splendid engraving , f Merry-Making in
