Loeo'Foeo Trickery.` ' In btst l Saturday's JOurniil; we published the proceedings of the . Loiefotelneetitig at Orwige, bqtg; and accompanied., ante . with a few hasty remarks. As far as we arevoneerned, we would • be. ; perfectly willing to let the matter rest here, but knowing that the whole affair was concocted fiM the tspeCial purpose of huinbugging the peo ple, we have thought proper to refer to several points contained ire., the Preamble, omitted in our crunmcnts of last week , one of which is the fol . lowing . • . - . - •• . . i,. Net more than two years since, We 1.. ere told by these very men, who at that time roe nod to all manner of fraud and deectiiion toe!evato themselves: thit the moment it was aiecitained t at a Whig President and Congress were elected confidence wield at once be restored—the price oflour produce and labor would immediately rise—heal ess of .eitify description would behrisk and fiourishir g , and, pm thing would be wanting to make us a p ~ eperous and happy people." 4 - . , This is the .charge,and the infer nce is that the 'Whig 'party, by these promises, h , ve imposed upon and deceived the peol.le. We now appeal to every honest and impartial mean, this region, I I "whether every pledge, therein.. con ained, was not, as far as Whig agency is cloneed,-fulfilled to the letter.

It is true; that Ma representation of Pennsylvania has been *decreased (which may, lie q bitter pill for, some "few office seekers,) - but have not all the States suf fered impartially I end was not this an unavoida ..blc result . of increasing the ratio of representation?

But the case proves to be en tirely. differenit the edifice was erected about three years since for benevolent purposes, arid has been used as a church, but principally at a room for Teniperance Lectures. ft has proved of great benefit to that portion of the city, nearly one thousand persons have signo their total abstinence pledge, and it is stated, that fifty-two unlicensed diam-shops have been already-sup pressed" thiongh 'their' laudable exertions.. And yet this sagaious Grand Jury haslpresented this building as al nuisance, in consequence, as we are_, informed, ofthr - ocits having , beenlftteredagainst it, subsequent to the riots.

No person will dispute the'authority : "No Ca cress, in the history ut the United Sthtes had'' done more than the present for the country. - Ile could not'approvo of all that had been done, and what bad been done,!

That Caleb Cushing cannot be re-elected to Cengress, midis therefore to take Mr. Webster's place in the Cabinet. That Walter Forward, who is now rapidly re- Coverhig from his recent illness, will nut resume his station in the Treasury Department; unlCss Tyler Signs the Revenue Bill. - And that John C. Spencer is to be superseded by Henry A. Mulilenberg as Secretary of War. H 65112 Coat.—No man in Congress is more bitter in his invective against Henry Clay then Henry A. Wise. • kappears, however, from the following that this gentleman entertained quite a differet,opinion of Mr. Clay in 1840—and ac cording to his own declaration, all hits recent at tacks Upon Mr. Clay cannot detracfiine iota from his fame: Written opinion on Mr. Clay by Mr. Wise, deliv ered in 1840: "He (Mr. Clay ) has already tier:inked what neither friends nor foes can take from him--a fame for which himself has fought—and to which no mares t praise can add; and limn which no man's cen , sure can detract; and,that fame is his reward. Office could not add a cubic to his stature." " If Congress submits to the dictation of John Tyler, they will deserve the execration of the pep pie and every friend of liberty throughout the world. It was the base truckling of Congress to the dictation of Jackson that caused our difficul ties-Hand a similar course now would only result in perpetuating them.

Correspondence of the Jowls! PIIILADEIPIIIA, August 10th, 1842. The Veto Message is now circulating through' the city, having Ibeen expected since Monday morn ing. The matter of the document was of ' course a nticipated, end the time of it alone was the sub ject of interesting conjecture. With regard to the latter it is tompenitti and in itself is not obnoxious to strong exceptions The substance of the mos- I sage however iaririnisfy no one who is not wed ded to Mr. Tyler and the ' doctrines of the party to which hellas linked his fortunes. It is the old s tory of the impropfiety and inexpediency of dm tributing the prociida of the public lands when the rate of duties exceeds *AI per Cent. It does' not touch the question whether the proceeds belong of right to the States and are therefore entirely in dependent of the revenue derivable front other sources. That important consideration of the case is left out of view altogether. Fault is found with, the Bill because It unites the subjects of Tariff and Distribution. This union he -it remembered was not originally sought by thrt Whigs. They de sired in passing the Distribution Act to-let it be independent and single, but theopposition fettered it with restrictions land clogged it by a anion of Llo per cent{ doctrine. It is hardly 'fair theiefore to charge the Whig's with 'the devising the alli- anti. This Distriblition was qualified against their consent with 4 .l'ariff provisions, and in self. defence they have Made their Tariff Bill shoulder the Distribution. ,The President of course finds reasons for opposing the Distribution clause, in the meagre ~c ondition of the National Treasury. Butthe States can find equal 'reason for approving it hi the similar condition of their own treasuries. The Riots of the last fortnight leave now no trace except the ruins of Smith's Hall and of the Church. The police regulations keep perfect peace in the District, ar,a the blacks aro no longer mo- lested. The two buildings destroyed must be paid for out of the County treasury. , An impression has prevailed, that the indemnity law bad beetrre pealed—but this is an error. The law of 1840, although repealed, was revived and bars date the 31st May, 1841. Under this Act the County is liable for the property destroyed.

The exercise of some independence of _judgment in regard to all acts of,legislation, is plainly implied in the of ; approving them. At all times a duty—it becomes a - peelifitirly solemn and impeCa tive one, When-the objects Passed upon byCongress happen to , involve, as-in the present instance, the most momentous issues, to affect variously the vari ous.parts of a great country. and 'to have given rise in all quarters , to such a conflict of opinion, as to ren der it impossible to conjecture, with any certainty, on which side the majority really is. Surely, is the pause of reflection. intended by the wise authors of the Constitution, by referring the subject - back to 'Congressfor re-consideration be ever expedient and necessary, it is, precisely such a case as the ~ pre sent. . ._ , . _ . Ou the subject of distributing the proceeds of the sales of the public 'lands, in the existing state of the finances, it has been my duty to make known my set tied conviction 'on various occasions during the pres ent session of Congress. At the ‘ opening of the ex tra session, upwards ortwelve months ago, sharing fully in the general hope of returning prosperity and Credit, I recommended such a distribution: but that re commendation was even then expressly coupled with the condition that the duties on imports‘ should not exceed the rate of 20 per cent. provided by the Corn prombie act of 1833. These hopes were not a little encouraged. and these views strengthened by the report of Mr. Ewing then Secretary of the Treasury. which was shortly thereafter laid before Congress, in which be recommended the imposition of duties at the rate 0f.20 per cent. ad valorem on all free articles with specified exceptions, and stated," if t his measure be 'adopted, there will be received. in the Treasury from customs in the last quarter of the present year L 1841185,300.000, in all the year 1842, about S 22,500, 000 ; and in the year 1813, after the final reduction ' under the act of Match • 2, 1833. about $ 20,800.000 ;" and adds," it is believed that after.the heavy expendi tures required by the public service in the present year shall' have been provided for, the revenue which Will accrue from that or nearly proximate rate ofduty, , will be sufficient to defray trio expenses of government, and leave a surplus to be annually applied to the grad ual payment of the national debt, leaving the proceeds .of the publie lands to be disposed of as Congress shall see fit." . I was most happy that Congress at the time, seemed entirely to concur in the recommendations of the. Executive. and, anticipating the correctness of. the Secretary's conclusion, and in view of ao actual stir Plus passed the Distribution act of the 4th September ast:. wisely limiting its operation by two conditions. lialring reference both of them, to a possible state of the Treasury; different from that which had been en ticipated by the Secretary of the Treasury, and to the paramount necessities of the public service. It ordained that, Wet' any time during the exis tence of that act, there should be an impo.ition of duties on imports inconsistent with the provision of the act of the 2d March, 1838. and beycnititlre rate of duties filed by the act, to wit,29 per cent on the value of such imports or any of them: then the distribution should be suspended,and should so continue suspend ed until that cause should be removed." - By a previ ous clause it had, in a like spirit of wise and cautious patriotism, provided for,anothor case in which all are even now agreed that the proceeds of the sales of the public lands should be used for the defence of the country. , , • It was enacted that the act should cOntinue And be in force aunt otherwise provided by law, unless the United States should become involved in war with any foreign power, in which event, from the corn mencement of hostilities, the act should be suspended until the cessation of.hostilities . , Not long alter the opening of the present session of Congress. the unpreCetfented and extraordinary difficulties that have recently embarrassed thefinances of the country began to assume a serious aspect. It soon became quite evident that the hopes under which the act of 3d September was passed, and which alone justified it in the, eyes either of Congress who impo sed or of the Execu.ive Ivho approved the first of the two conditions just recited, were not destined to be fulfilled,' Under the - pressure therefor% of the embar rassments which had thus une!pectddly arisen, it appeared to me that the course to be pursued had been clearly marked out for the Government by that act itself. The condition contemplated in it, as re - quinitg.a sitspensjpn Ohs operation had occurred. It became necessary. in the opinion of all, to raise the late of duties upon imports obese 2t) per cent s and with a•viOw both to provide available means to meet present exigencies, and to lay the foundation for a 'successful tiegociation of a loan, felt it incumbent upon me to urge upon Congress to raise the duties accordingly; imposing them tr. a spirit of a wise die criminatiou, for the twofold object of affording ample revenue for the Government, at d incidental protec lion to the various branches of domestic industry. .1 also pressed, in the most emphatic but respectful language I could employ, the necessity of making the land sales available to the Treasury as the basis of public credit. I did not think' that I could stand el cuied, much less justified before the people of the United States, nor could I reconcile it to myself to recommend the imposition of additional taxes upon them,without, at the same time, urging the employ meant of all the legitimate means of Government to wards satisfying its wants. - _ These opinions were communicated in advance of any definite action. of Congress on the subject, either of the tariff or land sales, under a high sense of pub lic duty, and incompliance with an express injunction of the Constitution—so that if a collision, extremely to be deprecated as such collisions always are, has seemingly arisen between the Executive and Legisla live branches of the Government, it has assuredly not been owing to any capricious interference, or 'to any want ofa plain and frank declaration of opinion on the part of the former. Congress differed in its views with thoseof the Executive, 38 it had undoubtedly a right to do; and passed a bill virtually for a time re pealing the provision of the act of the 4th September, ISIL The bill was returnee to the House in which it originated; with my objections to its becoming a law. - With a view to prevent; if passible, an open disagreement of opinion on a point so important, I took occasion to declare that.l regarded it as an India pensable requisite to an increase of duties above 20 pee cent., that the act oldie 9th September should remain untepealed in its provisions., My reasons for that opinion were elaborately set forth in the message which accompanied, the return Of the bill—which no Constitutional majority appears to'have been found for passing iuto a law. The bill which is now ,befo re me proposes, in its 27th section, the total repeal of one of the provisions in the act of September, and while it increases the duties above 20 per cent., directs an unconditional distribution of the land: proceeds. I am therefore subjected a second time, in the period of a few days, to the necessity of either giving my approval to a measure which; in my deliberate judgment; is in con flint with greet public interests, or of. returning it to the Ilciuse in which it originated, with my objections. With all my anxiety for the passage of a law Which would replenish an exhausteci Treasury, and furnish a soundand healthy encouragement to the mechani cal industry, I cannot consent to do so et the sacrifice of the peace and harmony of the cOnntrykand the clearest convictions of public duty. • For.some of the reasons which have brought me to this conclusion. I refer to my previous Messages to Congress, and briefly. subjoin the following: I. The Bill unites two subjects, winch, so far* from having any uflinity to one another, are wholly incongruous in their character. It is both a revenue and an appropriation bill. thus in. poses on the Executive, in the first place, the ne cessity. of either approving that which ho would 'eject, or e rejecting thit which . he might other. wise approve. This is a species ,orconstraint to which the judgment Of the Executive ought not, in my opinion, to be subjected. But that ia not my only objection to the act in its present form. The union of subjects wholly dissimilar in their character in the same bill; if it grow into a pre& lice, would not fail to lead to consequences - setructiveofall wise and conscientious legislation. _Various measures, each agreeable only to a small Minority, Might, being thus united, and the 'there 'the greater , chance of _suCcess, lead to the .passing of leis, of .which'no single 'provision coal, ifsfending alone. command a majority in ith favor. ' . - :2. While the Treasury is in a state of extreme einberiassment, requiring every dollar Which it can make available; and when . the Government has not only to lay additional taxes, - but to - bor. raw Money to'meet ,pressing demands, the - bill proposes to.give away - a fruitful sourt*Of nua- 7 which is the same thing es raising money by twinned tsxation+not to meat the wants of the Government, but ter distribution, a procrid ing which LMustregard as highly impolitie,if not anconetitattotial.;: • .

So gieat is the depression of trade, that even if thepreaent bill were to become a law, and prove to he productive, some time would elapse before sufficient supplies would flow into the Treasury; while, in the meantime, its embarrass ments would be continually augmented by the semi-anntial distribution-of the land proceeds. • lndee ' there is too much ground to 'appro. bend tha o ven this bill were permitted to become a law, al Meting as it does the proceeds of the land sal an actual deficit in thc-:_Treasury would tic ur, which would more probably involve the ttece shy of a resort to direct tdration. • Let it lso torremarked, that, 63,500,000 of the public d bt becomes redeemable in about two years an -whale which, at any sacrifice, must be met, Mk the Treasury is always liable to de. mends I r the payment of outstanding Treasury notes. Such is the gloomy picture which our fi. nancial !Department now presents, and which calls for the exercise of a rigid economy in the public expenditures and the rendering available of all thd means within the control of the govern rnent. I most respectfully subreit, whether this is a time to give away the proceeds of the hied sales,when the - . public lands constitude a fund whic. of ell Others, may be made most useful in sustaining the public credit. Can the Government be generous and munifi cent to others when every dollar it can command is necessary to supply its own wants 1 And if. Congress would riot hesitate to suffer the provi sions ofithe act ofetth of September last to remain uorepealed in case the country was involved in war, is nal the necessity for such a course' now just as'imperative as it would be then'? 3. A third objection remains to be urged, which would he, sufficient, in itself,'to induce me to le. turn the bill to the House with my objections. - By uniting two subject; so incongruous as Tariff and Distribution, it inevitably makes the fate of one dependent vpon that of the other in future contests of party. Can any thing be, more fatal to the merchant or manufacturer then such an alliance? , What they most all require is a system of mod erate duties, so arranged as to withdraw the Tar iff question, as far as possible, completely from the arena of .political contention. Their chief want is permanency and stability. Such an in crease of the Tariff I belieie to be necessary, in order to 'meet the economical expenditures of Government: Such an increase, made in the spirit of moderation and judicious discrimina tion, would, I have no doubt, be entirely satisfac tory to the great majority of the American. peo ple.. In the way of accomplishing a measure so salutary and imperatively' demanded by every public interest, the Legislative Department will meet With a cordial co-operation on the part of the Executive. , . . - This is all that the manufacturer, can desire, and it would be a burden readily borne by the People. But I cannot too earnestly repeat that in order to be beneficial it must be permanent. 4 in order to be permanent it must command gen. cral accinieseence. Bat can such permanency _be, justly hoped fur if the Tariff question be coupled with that of Distribution, as to which a serious conflict of opinion exists among the States and -the - People, which enlsts in its support a hare ma. j4rity, if indeed there be a majority, of ilia two Houses of Congress? What permanency or -stability can attach to a meaeure which, warring upon itself, gives away a fruitful source of reve nue at the moment it proposes a large increase of taxes on the People ? .Is the manufacturer prepared to stake himself and his interests upon such an issue? , _- I know that it is urged, but the most errone ously,,in my opinion, that instability is just as apt to ' be produced by retaining the public lands as it source of revenue, as from any other cause, and this is ascribed to constant fluctuation, as 'it is said ie the amount of sales.' If there were any thing. in thisnhjection it equally applies to imposition of duties en,importe. The amount of revenue annually derived from duties arc nonstant. ly liable to change. The regulations of foreign governments, the varying productiveness of oth er countries, periods of exeitemmt in trade, and a great variety of other eireninstances are constantly arising to affect the state of coin amerce, foreign and domestic, and of consequence the revenue levied 'upon it. The sales of the public domain in ordinary times are regulated by fixed laws, which have their basis in a demand increasing only ita- the ratio of the increase of' population. In recurring to the statistics connected with this subject, it Will be perceived that for a period of ten years preCeding 1835, the average amount of land sales did not exceed 83,000,000. - For the increase which took place in 1834-5 and 6, we are to look to that peculiar condition of the country which grew out of one of the mo't extaordinary excitements in business and speculation that have ever occuri-d in the his tory of commerce and currency. It -was the fruit of a wild spirit of adventure engendered by a vicious system of credits, under the evils, of which the country is still laboring, and which it is fondly hoped will not soon recur: , Considering the vast amount of' investments made by private individuals in the public lands, during those three years, and which equalled $43,000,000, equal to more than 20 years pun-. chase, taking the average of sales of the ten pre ceding years, it may be safely asserted that the result of the public land sales can hold out no. thing to deem the manufacturer with the idea of instability in the' revenues, ancimonsequaetly in the course of the Government. . Under what appears to me, therefore, the sound est considerations of public policy, and in view of the interests of every brew.% of domestic in dustry, I return pit-the bill with these any objec tions to its becoming a law. I take occasion emphatically to repeat my anx ious desire to co-operate with Congress,in the passing of a law', which, while, it shall assist in .supplying the wants of the Treasury, and re-ca. tabltsh public credit, shall afford to the manufac turing interests of' the country all the incidental protection they require. • After all, the effect of what 1 dreis substantial ly to call on . Congress to re-consider the subject. If, on such re consideration, 'a majority of two thirds of both' houses should be in favor of this Measure, it will-become-a law notwithstanding 'my - objections. In a 'case of clear - and manifest error on the part of the President,' the presump. lion of , the Constitution is, that each siajorities ,will be found. Should they be so. found in this' case, having conscientiously discharged eny own duty, I shall cheerfully aclutesce in the mutt. • ' --' JOHN TYLER. Wei:mamas:, August 9th, 1842. - ~. .

In the, southern wing (H.

Mr. Cushing had sustained this doc. trine by the ptactico, or analogy of the British government. Mr. Adonis showed the difference bet Ween the two goveropents, end consequently the fallacy of the reasoning. Here, he said the _ President wait responsible for every Executive of..

I say.what a chive has come over the people for if the People bad not changed, no man would dare min(' up on this floor, and advance unblushingly doctrines such as we have heard announced hero !' Mr. Adams was here cut oft by the expiration of the morning hour. and the House went into Committee - of the Whole on private bill% Mr. Boardman in the Chair, to whom is due the high credit of having so driven business that the pri vate calendar was cleared,of every case not con tested from A to Z—a thing that has not been done before within the memory of • the We l t: in habitant' of this Hall.. Mr. Boardman has had experience in legislative business in!the Speaker's Chair of the House of Representatives of Connec ticut, and he has shown What can be dine by one ready, experienced, and energetic. The attractive power, lifter the morning hour, was in the Senate chamber. Mr. Calhoun har ing the floor, come prepated to make one of his best efforts, as his speech undoUbtedly was. He maintained with his usual ability, sophistry, and subtlity, his peculiar notions,of political economy, that is to day, free trade, hard money, low prices. He put forth some very extraordinary propositions, among which was this: that high duties would lead 'to high prices, and that high prices would ruin the manufacturers! Another was that high pri.„„ W des and lOw'oges went hand in hand!, and that "' 'haw prices and high wages always were insepare- ' hle ! ! Another, that high prices would inevita bly result in large importations of gold and silver, which would produce a redundant currency, great ly to be deprecated ! ! !

' Mr. Favanii spoke in reply to Mr. Calhoun, and some others who had taken part against the bill in the course of its debate in the Senate, and par.. ticularly Mr. Woedbury. Ho noticed the eft re peated Objection that this bill gave too much rev. enuo. All we ask, said Mr. Evans, is the reve nue which you had, end we will support the gos. ernnient, pay your debts, and distribute among the states the proceeds of the sales of the public kinds. The amount of revenue which you had, vela more than this bill will yield, and yet it is notorious, indisputable, and undefiled, that - you spent eight tyear for several of the last years you were in power, over and above!_the receipts from the customs and the public lands? • You left the country'in debt and ,without a revenue"to meet its current expenses, }at the extra session we passed laws which put a stop, to frauds, upon the revenue to the amount of five millions a year, which you winked at and permitted. Thelltra ses sion therefere, of which you complain, saved 'its own expenses in ire than ten times told.. But what do you proposal This, question has been often asked, but never answered. The . gentleman from South Carolina, when asked what he would do; or have us to do, very cautiously said, be would think of it, anti when the exigency corns for him to act, would do what should seem to him the state of the country-required. This was very explicit.' But the gentleman from Now Hemp. shire, Mr. Woodbury, did say he would levy a duty of 20 per cent. on all imports except free ar. tides, and if that did not raise revenue enough be would resort to direct tax's fur the 'remainder. The rate of 20 pei cent. he thought, was the nat ural rate of duties, and therefore no'higher ought obe laid ! The natural rate of duties it was le first "time ho had ever heard of a nature/ rate 80,000 100,000 of chides. The Senitor from South Carolina had spoken of the Tariff of 1828, as bill of abominations ; anilfi - ad applied other harsh epithets to. it. But who made this . a , bill of abomination's I Not its friends—its enemies undertook . to make the bill 03 onerous as they could, in order to defeat it, but they got caught in their own trap. Instead of us friends voting Against it on account of the amend ments inserted in it by its opponents, they took its enemies-at their-word, and went for it—it was dangerous game to play.' But who voted for ill ;—Mr. - Iltinton, Mr. Blichanan, Mr. Wright, and Mr. Woodbury voted for some of the most object ionable features quit. Nay, more, Mr. 'Van Bo ren himself supported the bill. This allusion , to. act many Senators present who voted for the bit' of '2B, which laid heavier duties than the present one does, which they oppose, and the manner iu which Mr. Evans did it; created : considerable mer riment, and a fluttering among the wounded pig- MD Mr. Evans went on to notice anti refute Mr. Calhoun's extraordinary pasitions, referred to ri bose, and did it in a plain, unostentatious, simple manner but with a force of 'reasoning utterly ir resistable.
