be regarded as final. The astounding defeats of
Lord Morpeth in Yorkshire, of O'Connell in Dublin,

A terrible accident occurred on the sth at a launch

The solution of, circumstances which at first ap
pears so startling, is not,far toseek. The Reformers
have not worked. the' registration- machinery; the
Tories have. The Reformers have contented them-
selves with the votes - obviously °Ratted to them; the
Tories have experimented ;upon the number of votes
that could b e 'found or made, in any, property, availa
ble for the purpose. We are not beaten by !Change
of opinion. There is -no reaction ; our rattles are
.not thinned ; wo areas numerous and ready as when
we - were victorious. But the registries'have been,
cramed and packed. And unless we are content to
be-jockeyed iii this dirty way wit of all that is most
precious in political rights, and all that is meet im
portant to national ,presperity, some effort rnnst bo
made,' and some expense incurred, to clear the regis
tries of men of ! strati, and ensure a fair representa

THE TAitur Qusirrios.—A PROTECTIVE SYS
TEM—The following well written article on this im-
portani subject is extracted from the ~ People's Ad-
vocal() :
• The subject of a revision of tLe Tariff has Iron
more than once alluded to in the House of Repre-
sentatives the present session of Congress, and has
been made the subject of frequent and able.discus
sion through the newspaper press. We are glaJ to
see the subject brought prominently berme th e peo
ple, Lar we believe that the more it is investigated
he more generally the opinion vt ill
. prevail, that
while England and other nations, from which we
make our heaviest importations, continue to shut out
from their ports our bread stuffs and other commodi
ties, of which we have a surplus, the interests of our
whole counts y will bo'best adva - weekby imposing
such duties on their manufactues as will check ex
cesaive imFortation, and a consequent drain of the
precious nietais.
The South, to whom the Tariff was not long ago
a hydra-headed monster, to oppose•which nul Utica-
tion, was reedy to raise its angry crest, now seems
ready to view the matter more reasonably, and many
intelligent Boni; of South 'begin to fee -that the
AMerican system" is as much indentified with the
ritetests of the South as the North; andjmieed,
hat. the true interests of_our country are as they
should be—identical. Even the Richmond , i Whig,
which hoe been 'virulently anti-Tariff. acknowledges
that
i , ithere as not a more remarkable instance of the
fallacy of human judgment upon record, than the
prejudice against the Tariff." • • '

An awful penalty awaits these so offending. I

And this was then tho mournfel troth.—Theepirit
of bigotry and vengeance had leti loose the furies of
the mind.. Stern priests believed that they presented
a grateful offering to a God of mercy, by destroying
their fellow men fur differing from them in spiritual
matters, and that,. too, while one of the gentle sex
sat upon the throne. The emmissaries of the exas
perated ministers, of religion spread themselves every
where throughout the country in disguise among the
people. Fires 'were blazing in Smithfield; daught
ers were torn from their parents; the aged husband
from her whom he had protected, for fifty years, and
given to the flames for the very deed which Marion
had confessed.
A ware of this, the young man manifested a trem
bling eagerness to knOw where this all important vol
ume. could be safely concealed..., On this point he.
questioned Marion very . closely; land it was till
she had minutely described the secure biding place
in which it was deposited, that he seemed moderate•
ly at his ease.
g I know,' said she, 'that thert, is danger,but great.
er, more terrific danger still would exist for me were
my soul left in darkness ; and rather than this, if it
must be so, I am ready, if need he, to seal the truth
with my blood ; and feeble as I am, the fearful strug
gle of death would be trifling compared to the thought
that you were left to mourn, with none to comfort.'
• Speak not thus! '
Night after night,' continued Marion, g ore I re

They, tenderly changed adieus. and parted.

he promised soon to claim once for all.
That period from the circumstances thus described,
during the reign of Queen Mary, was a fearful 'one
for England—the blood of her best and mostpious
sons was. poured forth like water. Emmissaries, • to
discover the followers of tba new creed, were secret !
