HARRISBURG, Jan. 81. 1876.


I,is now nearly three weeks since the meeting OF
our Legislature, and little has been accomplished
beyond an organization. and preparation for ous-
ness. The Locos largely out-number the W hiss,
and intend to have every thing done in their own
way as q mater of course, and have already gwen
intimations. that that way is TO be characterized
with their usual liberality-and that in every meas
ure brough, forward, connected however remotely
with party issues, the Pennsylvania q Democra
cy' will go Jar the farthest in sustaining the
policy Of the National Administration. /, seems TO
be lauentaby that there are influences a. work
out OF Pennsylvania which felt here, to the
eopardng OF the dearest interests of State Il

remaining sufficient Conservative influence 10 sus

it from the destroying hand about 10 be raised al
Washington.

high in the confidence OF the Loco-t oco party, an
nounced their opposition to that Tariff on the floor
OF the House and they have given out IN boaung ter ms
that they will be sustained by others Indeed. large
and influential majority OF the party by their recorded
few days since published 70 the world that they
hating the subject and that they were ready to
be Influenced by the Of the British Admn;stra-

established policy of the Old Keystone. These Begin
Rings lead expect strange Developments soon. The
people of Pennsy yvanathe majority who lent their in
uence to place Free Trade Administ ation in power


may yet reap the bitter consequences OF their course in
prosraion OF their Mining and Manufacturing
interests and find when i, is too late TO remedy the
evil that they have been dupe6-that they have been
swindled. The Wings gave them warning of II, upon
