Tim T_aiuri='.—Froni the present aspect of
things there is seine reason to believe that the
tariffas it is, may stand out the present session
of Congress unaltered. The party claiiiorers, to
be sure, iiisist- that a revision, notwithstanding
the change that-has taken place in the position of
the government, must be carried through. The
government organ, echoing the views of the Ex-
ecutive, takes this ground. There is a disposition
evinced, however, by some of the Journals of
the party to fritter away the absolute necessity
ofa modification at this time. The movements
in congress tend to urge the conviction that the
session will pass without any thing being done.
Should the radicals, however, find themselves
in strength, a ruthless and ruinous change may
be the consequence. From the reconiincnda-
tion of the Secretary of the Treasury, the grad-
uation would look only to revenue. That alone
must be the object. Of the pernicious effects of
a tariff regulated by such a standard, a single
branch ofindustry, followed to considerable ex-
tent in this vicinity, will serve to show. On the
article of nieii’s boots, there is now a duty of $1
25. A revenue tariff would regulate the duty on
this article just so as to oppose the least ob-
struction to ‘importation. A low rate of duty
which would induce a flood of foreign work
to be thrown into our markets, would of course
secure the greatest amount of revenue. It is
plain what would be the fate of our own boat
makers, whose wages are already too much re-
duced. The consequence would be, that not
being able to compete with the half-paid and
half-starved operatives of Europe, they would
be compelled to suffer a farther reduction in the
price of their labor, which would be little short:
of ruin to themselves and families, or they would
be compelled to seek some other means of a
livelihood. Can any one fail to see this '?
Other branches of industry would be similar-
ly affected.
Another interesting feature in the tariffpolicy ,
of this administration, is the desire to tax—all 1
duties are taxes according to loco foco logic—_—
those articles ofgeneral consumption, and which
crown the board of nearly every poor man, too
and cqflbe .’ The consistent and congruous policy
of free trade looks not only to lessening the re-
wards oflabor, but to the privation of the labor-
er of the few comforts, luxuries if you please,
which are left to a life of tail. A duty of some
20 per cent is recommended by the Secretary
of the Treasury. This burden upon the poor,
the Journal of Commerce thinks should be
submitted to _without grumbling, as a murmur
would only render a man’s patriotism somewhat
questionable. A tame submission to the grind-
ing policy of the party, and uncompluinining en-
upon as very fair evidences of patriotism by the
Journal, which has usually measured its de-
pendants by a similar standard, or it might an-
swer to test the patriotism of the spirit-broken
and ambitionless hordes of the old world, but it
strikes us, that even the most abject of Aineri-
can citizens will not be long in arriving at the
conclusion, that a cup of tea or coffee, though the
fired, the procession will re-form and proceed to
the Connecticut Hotel, where dinner will be
iiing a splendid display of fireworks will take
o’clock, to conclude with a grand Balloon As
cension.

“There are defects in the present tariff, but
we doubt whether this is a time to make a general
reduction of its rates. Its absurd, useless fea-
tures .may be corrected. But to make an inroad
upon its revenue fealures would be impolitic.
\Ve must now and ever, so long as we depend
upon the tariff for revenue, keep many of the
rates as high as they are fixed by the present ta-
riff.”———I:IarIford Times.
The present is a pretty favorable time for
some of the party organs to take the backtrack.

Taylor's camp with a flag of truce, and
tendered the surrender of that town, fear-
ing he might make a descent upon it, and
intimating the desire of the people they
represented to come under the general’s
order. The answer of General Taylor is
not known, but the Mexican seemed satis-
fied. On their return, this party as we
have just learned from some of Cap-
tain Walkei-’s men, was met about 35

from many, whose party attachments called
them to regard the tarill'as “black and abomina-
Eble.” In the sun-shine of the nation’s hopes,

ltility to the Tzirill‘. It must be repealed, at all

its continuance.

Recent dispatches from Gen. Taylor, show
that his operations are impeded by a want of

Arista has pickets covering the roads leading
from Matamoras to Monterey, and the depart-

cing as traitors all who hold intercourse with the
American forces. In spite of all these obstacles,
Gen. Taylor avows his determination to proceed
to take Monterey as soon as means of trans-
portation are received, unless counter instruc-
tions are given by the Government.

time since as having undergone a forcible ejec-
tion from its “local habitation,” and left. an un-
sightly and dangerous obstruction to a principal
thoroughfare of the village, was on Saturday
night last, razed to the ground.
Its destruction was a work of as little ceremo-
ny, as that of its removal. A baker’s dozen,
more or less, of chaps of the “regular” stamp,
beset the illstarred tenement with axes, ropes
and other tackle, and by dint of about two hours
hard work, laid the whole in a heap of ruins.
Having finished the job,a requiem of three hearty
cheers went. up over the sliapeless mass.
On Monday morning, not a sliver was left.
The eagerness with which each of the provident

rity.
\Vhatever views may be taken of these sum-
mary proceedings, all had become satisfied that
the public security and the hidious picture pre-

be abated. As the whole matter is in the course
of a legal investigation, further remarks at this
time may be considered improper.

The prosentis not the time to med-

are in the estimation of free traders, are yet eii-
