Among thoso wlio have made speeches on the tariff bill this week were Representatives McMillan, of Tennessee.

The IV t o . ... . , ....'. ! manner f deiiv. i v is not the ino-l pleasing. but he is manner is foicible. looiinl ir.l his 1 lie ripened hi- sjiecli witli the declaration that nttin ,nijoi.al:ir. l Hie ,j:i.-;.oli of personal liberty was the ijio-st ion of how and Low mii- li the iTotde ! shall be taxed. As it tiertains t' taxation it was no n ev ,,neslin. but ; was with us in t lie beginning of our : government, and would be with 11- to its close. He who advocated th j present tariff, favored a tariff iiot . favtircd a tariff imt tot revenue, not for prolection mere- p but H tariff for Mind - . . ' us and a ' tariff for trusts. Said he: The internal revenue fields, in round j numbers, one hundred and twenty ' millious of revcntio to the govern ; meut. The annual surplus is only j about sixty millions; so that if ulV tl, .'niom-.i reromie law were r- nealed. it would leave n defuiencv i in our taxes of ivty millions a year. ! What is this deficiency to be raise J ! from? Shall we ro impose a tax on ! j tea and coffee? No. There is not ! ' mn l,ro n-l.n o.d.l rnt.iv nflee I I fa uidii us m.- w ! to untax whisky. Shall we increase i j tho duties on woolen goods, rice or sugar? No, for the people would ! not and tho people should not tol ! erate such legislation. Then we have to select the subjects from which we will rrnnve taxes; and in view of the fact that we cannot re peal the revenue system, we have to determine whether we will reduce the tf x on whisky or the tax on clothing; tho tax on whisky or the tax on sugar. In other words, re duce the tax on that without which men can live and prosper, or upon that which is essential to their very comfort and existence, and it nar fowa itself down to a contest be tween the drunkard's belly and the poor man's back. In that fight I do not hesitate to say that I espouse the cause of the back, and defy the j world, the flesh and tho devil Protection was tho kevnote of Representative Ibirrows' speech, whinb gave great satisfaction to his republican friends. He said our tariff to-tlay is professedly protec the in that it i levied, not for rev - enue only, but b encouiage Amer- ican imbiMry . and to protect Amer- icao loor. He cbsed w iib an p- peal to the naw S unit, lorn of the throes of war, but now full of cour- age and hope, her loins girt for it new race, her heavens aglow with the break f n new day. wai ning her that the Mills tariff bill b ided ! only disrupter to her.
