INDIA AND CHINA.

A REMEDY OF LOCO I'OCOIIH. Some of the locos are now coming out boldly fir Dirrct Taxation for thn support of the government, in preference to A Tariff. They have been long edging on to this, but were afraid to declare it openly. hey want Iree trade withotft any restriction, notwithstanding the benefits of the Tariff are staring them in the face whichever way they turn. They seethat all their prophecies have come, to nought. Instead of raising the price of articles of daily consumption, tlicy see that in consequence of the protection of -American Manufactures, every thing has been brought down to a very low price. Anusricnn Cotton can be had at from 5 to 8 cents per yard by the retail. Good Calico from 8 ti 121. Mousellinefle Laines frum 16 to 25. GoodJeai from 25 to 55. And so in proportion for every thlwg! else. These low prices arc the immediate comwqufnce of the Whig Tariff not a high pretture Tariff, as ihey call it but a reasonable ana judicious tariff. These locos would sooner protect and encourngo Foreign Manufacture than their own kitlt and kin. Shame! shame! And the remedy they are about to propose is direct taxation.

Iiet uil remember that the Whig doctrines ares1. One Presidential term v'-S 2. A good tound National Currency 3 Protection to American Industry. 4. The Dittribution of the Proceed* qf the talet qf Public Lands anwHg the State*. 5- An economical expenditure of (he Public Fund\.

Let all who ire in favor of such principles ri II rouud tho whig standard and vote for no mnn who 'cannot uohold ond maintain them. They ore plain and their objects easily understood.

Upon this subject that s!crling Whig paper the Philadelphia Forum, says: 'We trust this invitation, issued by the Whigs of Philadelphia to the Whigs of the Union, to respond to the nomination of the Whig National Convention, which meets nt Baltimore in May next, will be circulated from Maine to Florida, from the Atlantic to the Oregon. We are all aware ef the influence which the mass convention at Baltimore, in 1810, had upon tbe Whig party associations were there entered into, friendships formed, correspondences arranged, opinions interchanged, and promises given which acted as the bond and cement ot the entire Harrison party throughout the Unioft. It was the first giant, impulse given to the avalanche of 1840 the first 'roll of the ball1 which crushed Locofocoiftm in its onward course, the Lexington of the moral and political revolution of the people against their taskmaster* and oppressors. "The invitation is extended in unbounded cordiality, and we trust it will be accepted in the same spirit ot fraternal kindness. We ask our Whig brethren, of the prefts to he bearers of the request which Philndel pbia city and county makes to the Whigs of the Union, and to promulgate thtouah their columns that every arrangement will be made for their comfort and convenience.

But there is something ric|(§in Noah's requesting such a course of Tyler. It is but tlfew months since Noah's paper was the most absurd of all the Tyler popera in Its bringing pralings of the miraoulous*Micrease of the number of Money njia.j^r Tylerls votaries and its earn&4 re Acctdehcjfa (fiends to devote all their energies toWards his nomination. What has produced this change in Noah'fc exhortations? If he were not such a hardened nnd impenitent old sinner, we should suppose he had

been tn the penitential mood of late, had repented the crime of Tyierism, and was anxious to expiate his for* trier vices by a futurtfdevotion to right. But this is utterly insupposable, and the cauae is not to he penetrated by us, unless Tyler haa miffed Ihe Jewish legislator by refusing to confer on him some office around which his aspirations clustered. As it is not for a moment to be (nought that any man will speak or write a word in favor of Tyler unlets he looks forward to his recompense in an official station, so sly an old politician as Noah would not have undertaken to espouse

AJOIf NOA1I.

The Majorv^in the first number of his new £aper, advises Tyler to come out at oncc and declare that under ne circumstances will he bo a candidate for a ro-elec-tian to the Presidential chair. It will make precious little difference in the calculations of politicians wheth* er the truitor takes Noah's advice or not. All parties view him with contempt and' his swelling pretensions to popularity as insulting in the common sense of the people oi the Union. If Tyler was a legitimate candidate he could not carry a single State in the land, but he will be only the candidate ot the Tyler party, and will, therefore, not carry a single State, county, precinct, or cottage in llin country. It is, of course, then. a matter of no importance 'whether he considers Noah's proposition to decline a nouagption or not. He is nobody's favorite, and nobody |nll vote for him.
