The information which comes to as

Now wad Then.
Most of our readers will mealiest the
celebrated Kann letter of President
PoLK on the tariff—.how it was abased,
and vitiated, and its, author denounced
by the "upposition" in Peansylvnuia.—
Well, the other day, in looking over
the resolutions of the recent' "opposi
tion" Convention whieb met in Harris
burg and put in nomination that emi
nent "trey-trader," John M. Road, we
were forcibly impressed with the idea
that the language of the one relating
to a tariff was not new—that we had
read it somewhere before.—and tho
more we pondered the more we were
convinced that it wee in the HAKE We.
ter. The following is the rveohatiou :
Reao!red, That the revenue necessarx

tr.ttion of the Government slioald he
raised by the imposition of duties upon
foreign imports, and in laying them,
such discriminating protection should
be given as will secure the rights of
free labor and American industry.
Now read tie , following extract from
tbo Kama letter :
" I sin in favor of a tariff for revenue,
finch an one as will yield a suMeient
amount to the Treasury to defray the
expenses of the Government etonomi
cally administered. In adjusting the
details of a revenue tariff I have here
tofore sanctioned such moderate dis
criminating duties—as would produce
the amount of revenue needed, and at
the same dine afford reasonable inci
dental protection to our home mins
try."—June 19, 1844.
The "opposition," as they delight to
call themselves now, used to delight in
styling the Deimx:ratio party as "free
traders," but we think it will puzzle
them a little to point out the difference
between their llarrisburg resolution
and this extract from what they were
wont to call "Pout's free-trade letter."
Indeed the two are as nigh alike as
twin brothers.—Erie Obzerver.

So the terrible outcry raised by oar
political opponents for mere' party
effect, dwindles down to the shriek of
a penny whistle. If the above state
ment is correct, and we see no reason
to doebtit, then it is incontrovertibly
true that the present Administration is

The Emu Zleetion—The Vote Avant
Admission. I
Up results of the elections in Kan-
sus Daveno doubt of the refusal of
the people to he admitted into the V.
nion on the terms proposed in the Con- 1 .
ference Bill of the lest session. The
people of Kansas have had a sad expe-!
nence, as tools in the hands of dema
gogues who have ailed them to effect po
litical results ontakde of the Territory.
It is not surpruang, the excitement
of the past Mitring subsided, that they
should fowl disinclined to put on the:
haUllikent pf State and incur, at a mo
meat.arzecaniary pressure, the largely
increased Oxpeuses of an Cithiblie.ll.lllo/it f
of their own.
Kansas, by the force ofci reurastaneea,
to which we need not refer, has been
a purely exceptional awe. di eing drawn
into the vortex of the political whirl
pool and made merely instrumental in
the world of advancing the fortunes of
distant, but reckless fanaticiain, it. be
came necessary, if possible, to remove
all causes for con • 'lenient by
the pr ompt !Wm' State into
the nion, eve "HS known
tat there was lit Number
of inhabitants t e them to one
member of Congress. All efforts to
pacify thopeople, ho%vever,haying been
unavailing, and seeing how dema
gogues were likely still to exercise su
preme control in the Territory, it was
the dictate of patriotism to overlook
entirely the question of numbers and
admit them into the family of States.
Thu terms of admission finally arranged
by Congress were liberal, and the ques
tion whether they desire to become a
State was finally submitted to them.—
They have decided in the negative.
This result we do not regret. There
is no longer any reason for treating
Kansas as exceptional to the general
rule prevailing in reference to the ad
mission of new Slates into the Union.
Justice to the people of other Terri
tories requires that they shall have a
sufficient population, before admission,
to entitle them at least Loon° represen
tative ia Vcaigress. About one hun
dred thousand people is, sad ought to
be, the loweat number entitled to snob
admission. There are no well-grounded
Isrievasices is remaining under territo
rial forms, and this seems to be the
judgment of the Hansel; people. They
have decided thus to roman', and, as
they have at length come to realize that
peace is better than rebettion, we trust
they will DOW wait tilithelr numbers eel
for a change of government.— 'Washing

iiirThe Opposition editors have a
"hard tiniaef it" in trying to getup

not explode, but by some steams the Are
from the lamp in her hand was cotn

ing the explosion of the latter. Doc
tors Rue, of Franklin, and Gardner, of
Lee Centre, (both entiueut botanic phy

case, and notwithstanding the burns
wore to that extent that over throb
pounds of burned, dead flush have been
removed from different parts of her
body, by their great skill they hare her
now out of danger of death, and many
of her sores are entirely healed. There
will not be a scar left upon 'her Noe,
and her limbs will all be saved sound.

Rarey on "Blinkers."—Mr. Rarey
having been suiked his opinion with re
gard to the use of "blinkers" on horses,
replies in a oommanicution to the Lon
don Times, in which he states that his
experience with and observation of
horses proses clearly that " Withers
should not be used, and that the sight
of the horse, for many reasons, should
not bo interfered with in any way."—
Horses are only tearful of objects which
they do not understand or are not fami
liar with, and the eye is one of the prin
cipal mediums by which this under
standing and thia familiarity are brought
about.
They can be broken in less time and
hotter without blinkers, and driven
past objects which usually startle them,
with far more safety when the eye has
an opportunity to exantine the object
folly. The bone is a better judge of
distances than as., and if allowed the
hoe nee of his WWI, would avoid colli
sions frequently caused by the careless
nent.of his driver. Yr. Battey states
OW On use of the blinkers is rapidly
di=riag in the United Slataa, and
increased usefulness in the
Eorse when this "folly of the nineteenth
century" is abolished in London.

for a Gsasial bale:main.
NEW YORK, August 12.—The joint
committee appointed by the Common I
Council of New York fer making ar
rangements for celebrating the lisping
'of the Atlantic telegraph cable, have
determined to celebrate the event with
a grand salute of lOU guns, and the .
ringing of all the church bells, imnsedi
utely upon the transmission of the re
ply of the President to the message of •
Queen Victoria.
At night bonfires end a general illu
mination will be added to the demon
stration. There will also be a military
and civic procession some days there
after, followed by a tnun u dinner,
which festivities are expected to take
place simultaneously with those in Lon
don, throughout Great Britain - and on
the continent. It is requested that the
citizens of the United States and the
British provinces unite, in order that
the festivities may take place at the
same time and in the same order, of
which duo notice will be given.
In addition to those arrangements it
is suggested that as soon as the Presi
dent's reply has passed over the Bast
ern wires, all the telegruph lines of tbo
country shall be united, and the words
of greeting between these two distin
guished persons be thus instantly trans
mitted to every city, town and village
having telegrephic intercourse, and
that immediately thereafter all the bells
of the country be rung for ono hour,
and such other demonstrations made
as the citizens of the various localities
shall deem proper and expedient.
The Ten Million Loan.
The bids for the Loan of Ten Millions
were opened et Washington by the
Secretary of the Treasury, on the 9th
instant. The amount bid wag largo and
competition active' and spirited, the
lowest being at par and the highest a
fraction over severs per cent. premium.
Five millions of the loan was awarded
at five per cent. advents), and the
balance at four and a half percent. It
is remarkable that within one year after
the great financial revulsion, there is so
much competition for the privilege of
lending money to the government at
five per cont. interest, and that a prem
ium of five per cont. should ho 4 0volt.
therefor. Loaders seem to
. be averse
to
.speculation, preferring security 44
low rates of interest, to the initeeprity
that attends ventures after large plrofits.
Messrs. Riggs k Belmont offered Lis
take the' entire loan ut a prerniuut-of
three and threo-fourths per cent.• bet
as higher rates prevailed they Wok
nothing.—Harrisburg L'nion.
