Since the above was written, Governor Giles has
again addressed the Legislature of Virgina-and
speaks of the destructive effects of the Tariff upon
aerculture--in opposition to various facts and evil
dence. On this part of his message, the Richmond
Wing remarks


10 this broad declaration, every buying and sell
ling man will oppose downright negative. Both
classes know, the that they never bought their
Goods 1.-THE otherthat they never able to sell
them cheaper. This single fact which every man.
personal experience in great measure confirms, is
worth volumes of defamation on the subject OF the
Tariff. In what sense does the Message mean,
that the Tariff has proved destructive ofagrcnlture?
We can put but two constructions upon it-elther
that il has enhanced the price of commodities Affect

realiatory measures in foreign Governments, dl-
rected against cur agricultural prosperity we de-

Giles has mounted him, and believe it is the last
