but the subject of exborbitant taxation is presented, in such a light as must recommend - the article to the favorable consideration of the masses of the people, who ar6 interested in
a reduction ot taxation. The great
danger, to, be apprehended in refer
ence to the passage of the Tariff" Bijl,: is, that Congress will listen, more to
the importunities' of the manufacturers and interested speculators than
that it will give proper consideration
to uie wants ot the people. This. is
no time to De studying the wants of
the rich manufacturers, when the whole couutry is demacdins some rp-
lief from the present high prices of
commodities. W e need no protective, tariffs; the Eastern and Pennsylvania capitalists ought by this time to be
a uie iu iaKe care ot themselves. If
tuey cannot, it is too late now to ask for aid. AH that should be demanded now are import and internal taxes . high enough simply for the financial wants of the Government, and to this end the laws should be so framed . as to lighten the burden of taxation on the articles of prime necessity and general use. We are very free to say to the present Congress that the people of the West will hold it to a strict account if it should forget the interests of the whole country and the wants of the masses, and give way to
the general clamor which the Projectionists are making for additional burdens upon imported goods of gen-
erai ninny. rne old doctrine of Protection gained only partial favor, by, the necessities growing out of the war, and it is hoped a Republican Congress will not be guilty of the folly of making it in any sense a party

opinions, out it will do nothing rashly. I don't believe there is one chance in a hundred that this extremely radical

whatj it is worth, more or less), is that there is just about one chance in a hundred that the House will vote impeachment, rand ne -i a thousand that the Senate woul'lijconvict Jf the House were to impeach.
