WEL S, Nice Pres. ABEL FLYNT, Seeyr Tlye Tariff. • It will be recollicted that on the 3d of dune last the C. S. Sena passed' a resolution, calling upon the ?rebid for estimates of the expenses of the war with mace, and also for information relative to the ode of raising funds to meet the same. The Pre dent, in his reply, submitted a report of the cretary of the Treasury, in which he recommends another modification of.the present Tariff. The Har risburg Argus, in commenting on this Message, very correctly says: We regret that we are compelled to differ with the President in his views of the man ner of raising additional revenue. We are nQW in a state of war. _ Every precaution' should therefore be taken to avoid the adop-' tion of any measure which would have a di rect tendency to paralyze the prosperity of the country, and to' break down the energy and the existing enthusiasm of the people. We were gravely told some months ago that the Tariff must be reduced because it raised more revenue thin the wants of the government required ; and now we are as gravely informed that it must be reduced for the pUrpose of raising more revenue.. This glaring ineonsisteecy must strike every read er, arid induce the belief that the main ob ject ift to reduce the Tariff at all hazards, and ',alder that mask which may the most effectually conceal the designs of its ene mies.; We should be false to the principles pro- .claimed by the Democracy of Peensylvaaia }luring the last Presidential campaign, if we 01, not raise our Voice against all Attempts at the present time, to destroy the Tariff of That measure sowed the , seeds of prosperity broad east over the land, - and now when they are just sprouting up, giv ing life and vigor to every banch of indtis try, instead pf recniving the fostering care of the Government, it is madly proposed to cut them* by the roots, and thus to blast the fond hopes of the friends of true national!in depe4deace. Wp Wait lmiveyvvthat the 7 44 ary fricids of the . Tariff in Congress will stn i pd firtri. There are certainly' other means of obttiining funds to carry on therwar, thait by de4roying the manufacturing interest of the country. Let these means be sought out; let every dollar required be promptly given ; but stave the country from the calamities of a nteasure.which would be so fatal to its fu turd prosperity.

WitEN, in the course of human events, it becCitnes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected thelii with another, and to assume anion! , the )lowers of the earth, the separate and eqql station to which the laws of nature and of nature's GOD entitle them, a decent re speet to the opinions ofinan kind requires that they should declare the causes which impel thedi to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-eyident— thaq all men arc created equal ; that they arc tndowed by their CREATOR, with certain unalienable rights ; that among these" are life,tliberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Thit to secure these-rights, governments arc instituted among men; deriving their just pontrs from the consent of the governed; thathenevernny form of government be con *s destructive of these ends, it is-the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to in stitute new government, laving its founda tionlon such principles, and organizing its powlns in such form, as to them hall seem most likely to effect their safety and happi ness'.. Prudence, indeed, dictate, that governments long established, should not be chatlged for light and transient causes ; and, acctirding.ly, all experience has shown that matikind are more:disposed to suffer, while evil 4 are sufferable, thou to right themselves by aibolislthig the forms .to which th.: are accustomed. But when a lonE train of abus es and usurpations, pursuing invariably the samE object, evinces a design to reduce them un4r absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off snob Overnment i an&to provide new guards for their figure security. Sikh has been the patient sdffi-c -ance of these colonies ; and such is-now the nectissity which constrains them to / Iliter their former srstems of government., The history of the present king of Great / B ( 6min, is a his torri of repeated injuries ,and usurpations, all havhig in direct object / the establishment of an ilbsolute tvranny,4"ver - these states.
