" THE TARIFF.
We maintain, and it has for a long time
jfen our settled opinion, that the question
of a protecivo Tariff ought never to have
been introduced into patty politics. fit
become a question tipon which a political
party, as such, msy be ranged, it will, ne
cessanly, be insecure. I here will be no
certainty about it. To throw the traJo aud
producing industry cf the country vita
questions canceling thera wa mean be
tween angry combatants, fired by all ihe re
collections of an ancient feud, is certainly,
most foolish and darjerous, And yet, this
has been attempted ! & the attempt kepi op
for two oi three years, wild a zeal that is
proof against all rebujs.land a stubbornness
that defies all consequences! We cannot hold
the Whig leaders guiltless in this patticulsi.
It is undenicWe, thai they have drugged
his question into the arena of politics,
have untruly alledged ihemttlves to be its
exclusive friends, and opon the falgo issue
thus raised, attempted to ride into powsr
Woo ever heard before 1843 that the Tariff
ws a question upon which ihe two reat
parties of the country were divided ? No
body. The division upon it had bren .ocal,
opto 1812, as every one know,.; jt had
been a quesiion betweeo the Xortum and
Southern States, end not Letwesn polit
ical parties. Why was it than pressed
into scrvico as a topic of electioneering !
Why were enemies mado to it by ibis jn.
discreet conduct of ptetended frirnds t No
answer can be given to these quextions but
will condemn those rUmorons poliiicim.,
who have attempted to m.ke a political

The correspondence ol the State depart
ment on the anuexation of Texas has been
published. Mr. j'uchanaii, we see, over
hauls the 'man in the white bat' in the fol
lowing manner, in one of the letters lo Maa
jor Doiielson;
I regret that I have not time, before the
depariuie nf the messenger, io express to
io you; as 1 could desire, llie larling of in
dignation which ihe conduct of Captain El-
lioi has excnutl throughout this country.
"I hese are nol confined lo any p.irty, but
pervade ihe whole community ,)mj of its
good effects has beer, to render us, to n
very great extent, a united people on tho
quesiion of annexation. It is scarcely pos
sible thai his conduct can bo approved by
his government. Without entering upon
ihe inquiry bow far the British government
hud a right lo intarfere in preventing lha
people of Texas from consenting to annex
ation, no impartial man can Joubl bul that
Captain Elliott, in his efforts, hag transcend
deti all reasonable bounds. To assume iho
character of a secret negotiator of the gov
ernment of Texas with Mexico, io a hos
iile spirit towards ihe United States; to con
ceal his agency in this mailer, by pretend
ing that be bad left Galveston for Charles
ton, whej his destination, was Vera Cruz,
and then to prevail upon Mexico to consent
to iho independence of Texas on condition
thtil Texas should neer annex herself to
the United Stales these acis, taken trJeeth-
er, are al war with a tl,e modern usaees of
diplomacy, and with (he character of ihe
Criitslinient government, which is generally
bold arid frank, il not always just, in its
policy toward foreign nations. He ba9 not
even for a moment succeeded in his ell'orls
at concealment, and he will fiad tint his
transparent cunning will onlv tend to ren
der him ridiculous. lint what is far worsa
on his psrt, by obtaining ihe consent of
Mexico to iho independence of Texas, he
has dt'prived that power of the uidy miser
able pretext which it had fur a war against
the Uuitod Mtates, whilst he has fomented
among the Meican people a spirit of hostil
ity against us which 'may plunge thai ill-fa
ted couuiry into a war.'
