Two years ago the country was vocal
with cries Of distress from the wings,

when they perceived not the improved

Of promises, became greatly distressed
themselves, declaring tho country only
wanted protective tariff TO render it a

interest, was pussed-a Tariff, which,
even the Home Leagucrs declared ample
