THURSIIAY MORNING, JULY 19, 1866.
THE TARIFF.
It was a happy idea that of the New Eng
land members of Congress to try to shuffle off
the responsibility of the tariff bill from them
selves and to throw the odium' on the West.
It is a happy idea of the ostrich too, to hide
his head in the bushes with the purpose I
of concealing his tail. But the success of
both of these expedients depends on the
blindness or stupidity of the spectators. If
these have their eyes open, the New England
dodge is bound to fail just as ludicrously as
that of the bird which furnishes its pattern.
The fact is that the authors of that bill of
abominations, known as the tariff bill, have,
fortunately, overreached themselves by at
tempting too big a grab. The people of this
country have got used to being plundered
perhaps, as it seems to be a necessary part of
the system established by New England, they
rather enjoy it-but they do not like to be
robbed outright. A slight varnish of expedi-'
ency has always hitherto been laid on these
"protective" schemes in order to give them
an air of respectability ; but now even the pre
tense of "general welfare" is laid aside and a
programme of plunder is prepared, under the
torms of law. which is not disguised by even
the thinnest veil of policy. The tariff bill
which passed the House, but which luckily,
has been postponed by the Senate, was a
purely Eastern contrivance, for which the aid
of Pennsylvania was secured, as usual, by the
offer of large duties on coal and iron. The
injustice of the measure was so plain that the
West became restive under it, and the leading
Republican journals of that part of the country
joined with the Democratic press in opposing
and denouncing it. Among these we may
mention those three influential papers. the
Chicago Tribune, the Chicago Republican and
the Cincinnati Commercial. The Tribune says :
The issue in Congress on the tariff question has
taken a definite shape. * * * It is sae to say
that ninety men of every hundred in the Western
States are opposed to reducing the revenue from
the tariffby making the impost prohibitory. And
it may be turther stated that the Illinois member
Swho betrays the interest of the West and of the
national teesury by sopporting the prohibitory
scheme, most surely digs his political grave. If
he is resolved to vote for it, we advise him to se
cure his pay in advance, and to charge the rilg of
speculators enough to enable him to retire from
Congress and spend the remainder of his life "in
famous and contented."
In another issue it speaks of " the impu
dent attempt now being made in Congress to
rob every man in the United States who has
not got a s.tock of goods on hand, through the
instrumentality of an increase of the tariff,"
and adds :
It is such a barefaced cheat that no man in the
community, who has not a stock of goods on hand
on the sale of which he expects to rob his neigh
bors from twenty to one hundred per cent. of their
value, can fail to see and denounce it. Those who
have the bill in charge deserve the execration at
all true Republicans for inttroducing such an ele
ment of discord into our ranks on the eve of an
important election. If Andrew Johnson has a
grain of political sagacity he will veto the bill and
set himsell up as the champion of the people, de
lending them against extortion and robbery, and
protecting the treasury and the public credit
against the enormous deficit which will be cteated
by the sudden stoppage oi revenue from customs.
The Chicago Republican speaks to the
same effect, and the Cincinnati Commercial
says :
The sentiment of the people of the Northwest,
taken on the tariff question, unembarrassed by
other issues, would be found overwhelmingly op
posed to any further toleration of the systematic
extortion which is highly developed as a great
principle in New Englandand Pennsylvania, and
already the dissatisactelon is so great that we
doubt not it will result in returning to the next
Congress a number of copperheads, who, what
ever else they may do, will oppose a tariffsystem
so adjusted as to pour into one man's pocket the
fruit of the labor of a thousand hands.
In order to show the influences under which
this bill was concocted, and under which
this barefaced attempt to rob the industrious
classes of the country was made, it is suffi
cient to refer to the occupations of some of
the principal supporters of the measure.
Thaddeus Stevens owns iron mills in Gettys
burg, antd wants to plunder the people of the
United States to make them more profitable.
Justin A. Morrill owns marble quarries in
Vermont, and wants to plunder the people of
the whole Union, so as to get a higher price
for his blocks. Mr. Griswold, of Troy, N.
Y., is a manufacturer of railroad iron, and
desires to prevent his fellow-citizens from buy
ing cheaper railroad iron abroad, whereby
evry man who rides on railroads in the
United States must suffer for Mr. Griswold's
benefit. Mr. Winm. E. Dodgeis interested in
wire works in Connecticut, and has a large
stock of iron, etc., on hand. He gets ten per
cent added to the duty on iron-wire, which
ten per cent. is plundered from the pockets
i. of the people, to "represent" whom he paid
several thousand dollars in election bribery
° one Sunday morning. Roswell Hart, from
the Monroe district, New York, is largely in
terested in the salt works of Saginaw, Mich.,
and probably also in the Syracuse salt mon
opoly, and joins the ring of plunderers thai
he, too, may profit by the plundering.
Of course all of these disinterested patriots
were willing to help the manufacturers o:
New England-who complain that they arn
becoming poorer every day, on annual divi
dends of from twenty-five to one hundred pe:
cent-to enrich themselves at the expense o
the country, always providing that they-the
disinterested and patriotic legislators-be al
lowed a large share of the grab. By a dis
graceful system of trafficking the bill finall
got through the House, but the Senate coult
not stand it, or was afraid to face the rising
voice of opposition and denunciation whicl
came from the West. So the measure, witl
the assistance of the votes of Messrs. Wilsot
and Sumner, was deferred till the next session
In the meantime, as nobody but Thad. Ste
r. vens and the N. Y. Tribune claim the pates
nity of the thing, it seems likely to die on
of the way before Congress meets agair

Messrs George Shultz, Alfred Hazzard, James
Drane, Fleming Stewart, Elbridge Atkinson, Gee.
Cox. Thomas J. Hawes, Eugene Croft and Frank i
Norsworthy, citizens of Jackson, in the parish of
East Feliciana, were examined yesterday before
United States Commissioner Shannon, on the
charge of assaulting and violently beating a negro
named George T. Ruby.
Ruby's testimony was substantially as follows:
He came here in 1864 from Portland, Maine. In
June last he went to Jackson to open a school fot
negro children, under the auspices of the freed
men's bureau, but he was unable to procure a
building. He was frequently threatened. On
Tuesday, the 3d of the present month, at about I
o'clock in the morning, about fifty persons, dis
guised by their faces being blackened, came to
the house where he was boarding, took him and
conducted him a mile and a half to Thompson's
creek, " paddling" him on the way, cursing and
threatening him for his effort to establish a negro
school. Arrived at the creek, he was conpelled
to throw himself into it, and he swam the stream
and then got away from the party.
He was closely cross-examined by Judge eor
gan, consul for the prisoners, as to how he could
identify.them disguised as they had been, but he
persisted that he was positively able to identify
all the parties but two, although he had no pre
vious acquaintance with them. The two whom he
could not identify, he said there was other evi
dence to prove their connection with the affair.
The commissioner ordered the accused to be
committed for trial before the United States disa
trict court, in November next, and directed that
no bail should be taken.
Judge Morgan remonstrated against the refusal
to allow bail, and contended the charge did not
justify, nor the law warrant, such an arbitrary de
cision.
The commissioner then said he would admit the
pr:soners to bail in the sum of twenty thousand
dollars each.
Judge Morgan suggested that to ix the bail at
so high a sum, was equivalent to a denial of the
privilege, and the commissioner then informjed
counsel he would fix the amount on Friday next.
Capt. A. G. Studer, of the freedmen's bureau,
being present, he stated that it was the intention
of the military authorities, under the order lately
issued by Gen. Grant, to hold the prisoners in cuea
tody until their trial takes place.
Pollee B.uerd, .
This board was in session last evening, but dis- do
posed of only one case, that of officer H. Flood,

nature were continued to Saturday, when the to
board will sit again. t_

THe ALABAMA STATE LoTTvRY.-We were
pleased tb receive a call yesterday fromMr. L.
Broadbent, one of the managers of the above
named lottery. Mr. B. visits our city with a view
to arranging with Mr. C. T. Howard, lottery agent,
for the next drawing, which is to take place on
the 16th of next month. As this lottery is gotten
up for the benefit of the Tnscaloosa College, the
buildings of which were destroyed during the war,
its success is a matter of interest to all classes,
and we hope that our citizens will assist it liber
ally. At the drawing which took place at Mobile
on the 7th lost., a list of which we published a
week or so ago, a citizen of Mobile won the capi
tal prize, a fifteen thousand dollar set of jewelry
some time displayed in the window of Messrs. A.
B. Griswold & Co., corner of Canal and Royal
streets. This time the capital prize is fifty thou
sand dollars, and there are numerous smaller
prizes, so that the chances for fortune are better.
Mr. C. T. Howard, the agent of this lottery in this
city, is a gentleman who has lived in New Orleans
all his life, and has been a lottery agent for the
past fifteen years; that he should represent it,
stamps it at once as an honest and fair scheme,
and the object for which its earnings are to be de
voted commend it as a home institution to repair
damages done to our fellow citizens of a sister
State. We hope that everybody who can spare
the money will go at once to Mr. Howard's and
buy a ticket.
Mr. I. C. Harris, agent of the Morgan line of
Texas steamers, received a telegram stating that at
the steamships I. C. Harris and Harlan left Gal- a
