alton, embodied as it was in statute profess
sing to be merely temporary, and being IN
fact one Of the most hasty, ill-adyised, assored,
and iniquitous laws upon our statute book the
democratic party deemed il fit TO put an end to.
The deed has been done, and we symptom
that the democratic party shrinks from looking this
act full in the face. We believe that the democratic
tariff of 1886 will stand, At least, 1t was made 10
stand; and in this, it has the advantage of the whig
tariff of lS42, which its authors ayowed to be made
merely for temporary purpose, and not even de-
signed to stand at ALL As to the constitutional treas
ury, it will be time enough to discuss the evils OF
that measure when they shall have been felt. Until
that distant day comes, the democratic party will,
we think look that measure, too, very calmly in the
face.


In one word, to sum up the whole matter, the
"American" must look to the last session Of Con-
gress for proof of the ineficiency midity of the
democratic party. Four great measures, two OF
foreign, and two Of domestic policy, were in that
session met and argued, and so far as our action is
concerned, settled. A distinguished politician lately
said that more was done in those eight months, and
more great measures settled than almost in as many
years Of some other administrations The demo
cratic party will stand up to the principles upon
which the settlement has, thus far, been made.
