CORRESPONDENTS.
.
In reference to communications which may ap
pear in this paper, we hare one or two remarks to
make. We will insert none without the.' name of
the author being first made known to us,* and
when inserted, must always, be taken as expres
sive of the views of the writer, and-not the editor
of this paper, unless the views so expressed are ed,
itorially remarked upon and approved.
The Tariff . of 1846, denounced .by the
Whigs of Georgia, ac affording too high
protection.
'The viidgs of the north declare that the
• Tariff of 1846 will, not protect the industry of the
country; the whigS of the south denounce the act
of :1846 as "obnoxious to the south on account of its
protective features generally." Verily, the whig
party— , -the party claiming to be the exclusive
fnends of the Tariff differ very witty in their
views as to the provisionS of the new bill.
The -Milledgeville Journal, the accredited organ
of the wlaig. party in the State of Georgia, de
nouncei the new bill, and intimates that the whig
members of Congress from Georgia voted against
it because "asobnoxious to the tough, on account of its
protective features grim ally, as the northern Demo
-Wats could pass without outraging the country and
the constitution." The editor in remaining upon
the Tariff acts of 1842 and 1846, says:
a late number of our paper we stated, by
way of calling the attention of our, readers to the
fact, that the Whig members from Georgia voted
against the passage of the 'Tariff act of 1542.
This was because its features, or many' of them,
were too protective. Mr. Clay, however, adijocated
thin Tariff, and because he was the Whig candidate
.for the Presidency, and because Georgia Whigs
advocated his election, our opponents attempted to
saddle upon us, as a'party - , an advocacy! of princi.'
plea enibraced in that bill. In other wordS, whatev-
er Mr. Clay was in favor of or opposed to; we were :
in: favor of, or opposed to no such thing! The
principles avowed by Mr. Clay en the Tariff, were
every one, of them, alniort in the seine language, ad.
ranted. by Mr. Palk. L'etween the two candidates,
there was not a particle of difference in 'their crowed
principles. To the Tariff then, of 1842, - while we
supported Mr. Clay, who advocated it, We were op
'posed—so were the whig members fromi Georgia,
• for they voted against it, as did our' Seri:"'
• 'We.
nve had an opportunity of investigating its
items, we pronounce it Intl Wile or no better than the
Tariff of 1542. As a member of. Congress, we
should have voted against it on that ground, if on
no other; but from motives of policy—for the better
regulation hereafter of the popular will—we wish
it may pass and become a law.
The judgement which an indignant people will
pass upon them,.(the Democrats,) will:amply re
pay the Whigs of Georgia, who, as a party, have
been so often and so falsely charged with favoring
a high pmtective,Tariff
It further thus characterises the new law
“With features in it somewhat preferable to the
act of 1842, it is yet as obnonjous a bill, in our
opinion, to the South, on account of its protective fea
tures generally, as the Nortlie;n Democrats could
.c
pass without outraging the untry and the con
-stitutioa.
The iFhl g party of Georgia is an anti-Tariff pa, ty
opposed as much to a protect ire Tariff as any other
party. Those who write otherwise, in our opinion,
misrepresent them. They are worse than misrep
resented, too; when it is said they are opposed to
the late Tariff bill, because it does not sufficiently
- protect certain articles, or that it is not sufficiently
protective in its character. Why, protection sticks
out in almost erery feature of it. Upon this ground
we shall oppose it; and we believe upon this ground
it will, be condemned by the Georgia Whigs."
- It is clear enough from this, says the Pcnnsyl
-vanian, that the Whigs of Georgia voted for Mr.
CLAY, believing him to entertain the same opinions
- upon the Tariff as were entertained and avowed by
Mr. Por.x.. Our Whig opponents in this State,
who have grown hoarse in denouncing "theifeaud"
upon Pennsylvania in regard to tlyis same question
will find material to vary the entertainment in the
extracts above quoted.
Our Candidate for Senate.
The nomination of Col. llAatii.Tos, wilt be well
received by the Democracy of the District No
man in the district has been more faithful, constant
,and zealous in the cause of Democracy, and we all
know that he will, if elected, be an able and effi
cient advocate of western interests, on the'floor of
the Senate.
REVOATZD Loss OF AN AXEILItAN SRIP.—A
letter dated Halifax, July 20, written by a gen

or 14 days ago, at Sun's Bay, N. F. COuld not

E===l==
City, Affairs,
It win be . seen by the proceedings of the City
Council, publishcd this morning, that a communi
cation was received on Monday, from the', present
Treasitrer of the city, - stating . "that in compliance
with the resolution authorising him to enquire hoW
many of the, City Bonds had been illegally issued
by the late City Treasurer, be had ascertained that
$24,000 bad been issued; 12,000 of which were
said to be redeemed, and the balance held in Phila
delphia as .collateral security for $9,000; and con
eludes by recommending a new issue to redeem
the illegal."
The committee on Finance were then byresolu
tion, "authOrised to employ special counsel.to pur
sue such legal, measures as they may deem advisa
ble, in relation to the illegal issues of City Bonds
by the late City Treasurer; and also in relation to
all other acts and indebtedness of the said late
City Treasurer.'
Why has this, business been. so long neglected?
A full explanation should, without delay, be given
to the people of the city. Sorne time since,
.the
people were assured that the whole sum due was
secured by judgment upon valubble real estate; thnt
jut:gment, ire learn, has since herm set aside by the
coUrtand now we find that the committee on Fi
nance, on !Monday evening, -were authorized to
employ apccial counsel in the case. What next?
3-The New York correspondent of the Nation
al Intelligencer under date of Saturday the Bth,
says:
"The TAriff is affecting the wool market very
seriously. IA gentleman of respectability informed
- me thiS daY that his son purchased within a lew
days, at tWenty-three cents per pound, such. wool
as sold last March at thirty-five cents per pound."
The aboVe appeared in the Journal of yesterday.
The new Tariff bill, as is well, known, dues not go
into operation until the Ist ofl next December, of
course its provisions, at the present time, can have
no direct effect whatever upOn the wool market.
But. if ‘ t.he !wool market is severely affected, the
writer, we presume, is correct in attributing it to
"the Tar; that is, the caistipg Tunff. Look at
the facts. The whole amount of foreign wool of
every quality, brought into the United States in
the year 1842, before the existing Tariff law went
into operation, was 11,420,052 pounds. Under
the provisions of the act of 1812, the amount
of wool iMported was greatly- increased, and in
1845 the amount 'of every kind brought into this
country, Was 23,533,040 pounds, exhibiting an ac
tual increase compared with the year 1.842, of
more thaii TWELVE MILLIONS OF POUNDS.
"Facts are stubborn things,)' and we think, it
will trouble the whigs to satiety the farmer that
a Tariff aft under the provisions of t 1 hich, the a
amount of wool brought intolthe country, has AC
TUALLY .I.'S'CIF.ASED OVIM TiVFLNT MILLIONS OF
rorynk, sufficiently proteCtive of their inter
eats. •

by competent judge, to be the most beautiful ever

Argus:
Working of the Neer Tariff.—A friend connected
with the importing
business, and on whose acquai
tance with all the details of that business we have
the utmost reliance, has stated to us a few facts.
which explain the practical effect of the new
Tariff, and the true amount of protection which
domestic manufactures will enjoy under it. lie
informs us that, in addition to the duty, the costs
and charges on the importation of foreign goods
are as follows:
Exchange—average rate, 10 4? cent.
Interest on outlay of capital, 6
Commission in Europe for buying 23 "
Commission in Europe for paying bills, 1-3-
Outside wrappers, 2
Freight, . _
These costs and charges are calculated on an
average importation of dry goods. Of course, they
must,be much higher on heavier articles, as iron.
Thus, if these costs and charges of importation are
added to the duties of the new Tariti; the average
actual protection under it to domestic manufactu
rers will be at least 30 per cent.
PANIC OF ANOTHER CHARACTER
In the North, the Whigs predict that the new
Tariff bill is about to inflict "ruin" upon the man
ufacturers. The Georgia Whigs, on the contrary,
denounce the bill, because it gives too many boun
ties to the manufacturers. Hear the Georgia [Whig]

—This was the remark of an Eastern man, Mr.
Simmons; upon the passage of the Tariff bill. And
we agree with him perfectly. Lowell will always
be beyond the reach of any such bill. There is
protection enough in it to make Lowell rich enough in
twenty years to build another Lanett.

of, the Senate at an early hour went into Executive
session. .
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Evening Seiiipn.---At five o'cloCk, abotit. a
score of the members Were visible in the Hall, the
remainder finding it rather inconvenient to walk up
to time, after eating a good dinner and drinking
cold water mixed with other things.
The Speaker, however, thundered with his mace
and called order. So the tenth part of the quorum
present came to order, that is to say they took
their seats and talked, instead of doing so standing.
kr. Simms, of South Carolina, moved that the
speech of each member shall not exceed a quarter
of an hour in length.
After some talk it was decided tha:t a quarter of
an hour was too long, and that, considering the
hot weather, ten minutes was long enough.
This important matter having been settled, the
Senate bill authorizing the President to issue letters
of marque against Mexico, in case she shall set
the example, was taken upand referred. The bill
to amend the postage law, was also referred.
The amendments of the Senate, to the West
Point bill were concurred in.
At this time the House was in a perfect up
roar, and members appeared to look upon the
night session as a holyday. : The galleries were
well filled, and all the great men entitled to come
on the floor were distinctly visible in various parts .
of the Ila 1.
Mr. 31:Kay having drafted a bill to carry out
the views of the message, -by appropriating the
two millions asked for, the Hour° went into com
mittee of the whole upon it. (The thermometer
in the hall at this time stood at 90 degrees.)
Mr. White, of New York, was not willing to
vote for the bill. When the war commenced, Con
gress had given the President thirty millions to
nconquer peace." This being the ca.-e, he was
averrc now to appropriate money for buying a
peace.
31r. Winthrorp' argued, that we have territory
enough already, without haying California, how
ever desirable it might otherwise be. Besides he
thought it was taking an unfair advantage of 3lexi
co. to force her to sell it now.
Mr. J. R. Ingersoll hailed the message as a mes
sage of wisdom and humanity. Ile would willing.
ly vote the two Million to end the war.
Mr. Crider argued. that the war in the first
place was totally unnecessary, If we had 'wanted
California, we could have bought it without spend
ing the immense sums we had in war. lie would,
however, vote for this bill and hold the President
responsible.
Mr. Wilmot thought the President ought to have
I furnished the House with all the information in
his possession, relative to this business. He was
I averse to legislating in the dark. Besides. if the
' bill should pass, he wanted to move an amend
' ment to the effect that in cafe of the acquisition of
!California, neither slavery nor involuntary servi-
I tude shall exist there, except for crime, on convic-
Ition thereof. Ile concluded by moving an amend
ment to that effect.
Mr. Hunt, of N. V., was opposed to the further
acquisition of territory, especially in the
Mr. Sims, of S. C., eulogized the nietsage, and
contended that the President had behaved with
great magnanimity towards Mexico.
Mr. Adams gave his hearty assent to the bill.
The message of the President was, in the words
of a certain gentleman, "refreshing." With regard
. F . l itk f igqi i giTliVailttriZil f isrldit in Cali
fornia.
After further debate, the amendment of Mr. Wil
mot, prohibiting slarery in California in case it shall
be umpired, was agreed to.
Atter the rejection of numerous proposed amend•
rnents, the bill was reported to the Home, when the
amendment prohibiting darer!, was concurred in.
After an ineffectual Motion to lay it on the table.
the bill, as amended, was ordered to be engrossed
by a vote of yeas S 5,
nays 'al. The bill was then
read a third time and passed without a division.
Its title was amended so as to read ' , A. bill making
further grovision for the expenses attending, the in
tercourse between the United States and foreign
nations."
A motion to reconsider the vote on tie passage
of the bill was negatived—yeas 70, nays S 3.
After a great struggle to act upon other bills,
the House, at 11 o'clock, adjourned for want of a
quorum. It will meet on Alonday at S o'clock.
The naval appropriation bill, and the general
appropriation bill have yet to be acted upon.
It is understood that the President has sent
veto Message to the t'cnate, on the Fleneh spolia
tion bill. That body has been in executive eession
most of the day.

Fram the New Orleans Bulletin of July 31
We learn from a letter received by a gentleman
in this city from a naval officer now in Pensacola,
that Commodore Conner contemplates making an
attack upon Alvarado, immediately. Light draught
vessels only can be need in the attack, and the
Flirt, now repairing at Pensacola and taking in
stores, is to be one of them. She will sail for Vera
Cruz on Sunday or Monday next. The writer of
the letter from which we obtain this information
also states that he beard an officer who is high in
command, predict that the American flag would be
floating over the castle of San Juan cillloa within
sixty days. Perhaps preparations will not be com
pleted early enough to reduce the castle within
that time, but the expression dropped from an offi
cer of high rank, removes all doubt of the truth of
the report that the attack is contemplated.

To catch the tender sweetness

From lips of woman won,
