Mr. Bunrar (ccm ) of Vs., made a report from the Committee of Conference on tho tariff bill. Mr. Bropunap (-om.) of Pa., made an unsuccessfal notion to adj urn, thinking it better to postpone action on the report (ill to-morrow, when the Senate would be fuller. Mr. James (dem.) of R. 1, bad gomething to say on this eudject, but instea1 of detaining the Senate he would print bis remarks. Mr, Gurue, (:attonal) of Mo., did not know bat that the report might be all right, but he could not agree to ao- cept e proposition of which he knew nothing on such an important question as the revenue. Mr. Bronapap gave reasons why be ebou'd vote against the report. It would not reduce the revenue, nor would it reduce the price : f articles to the consumer. 1: would stimulate importation, azd was unjust to the iron intorest, and so forth He was aware that it would pass, and would not make apy factions cppoaition. Mr. Biouse, (dem ) of Pa, regretied exceedingly the necessity of differizg from Mr. Brodbead om a question so im portart as this, and be could not do so without brieily stating the reasons why he should vote for the re. port, His copatituents were watching the aotion of Con sree wih great interest, ani he felt the responsibility of bis posiiion, He bad not taken the bill because he belleved it entirely right. Thore were some features in it which be would like to change He would bave proferred that schedue A should ax bave been reduced below fifty per cent. Hoe agreed with Ur. Brodhead as to the efoct of the bill on the iron in- \ereat, but iron was not the only interest in Penusy!va cia, In Philadelphia there were larger manofaciorica than in Lowell. Weollen and cotton goods wore maau factared there in iarge quantities. Madder and logwood While he bad contended for ali he could get for his own constitue.¢s, he rejoiced theta standard of oquity bad been found. He thought the bill the best tbat could be under the ciroumstances and therefore shoald efor it. He knew that some of bis constituents would complain Mlerty ef his action, but he had done what be bong ht right for the entire people. Mr. Rosx, (dem ) of Texas, should vote for the report with great retuctance. ° Mr. Yotss, (dem.) of fia, enid the same, and added he only regarded it as a temporary measure. ‘The report was then agreed to by yeas, 33; nays, 8.

Mr. Camrnaii, (rep.) of Ohio, from the Committe of Conference om the disagrocing votes om tho Tarif bill, wade a report. He said that ibis question ought to be withdrawn from the party politics of the country; aed however objectionable the report might be, it shovid be borne w mind that it had been unanimously egreed to by ibe members composing tho om- ‘erence. He wae authorized to say that not one of them was extirely satisfied with tt; but concessions wore made, a@ necessarily they mast be ander sech circumstances, ‘m order to carry any measure. Inthe first piace the hupdred per cent schedule, and ao much of the old fony per cent schedule as is not reduced down to the low «chedulag or {reo Het, are reduced to thirty per cont. The forty per cent sot edule, inctoding all the spices and arti- cles not produced im thie country, and which enter into general consumption, are either upon the free list or in ‘he four per cent schedule. Many articles are brought down from the thirty per cent schedule to s lower sche. oule. The came is tho case with the intermediate sche dules between © and I, The House committee yleided to the smendment of the Senate, whicb thirty fer cent, asd im tho compromise of the matter they have procured substantially ibeir {ree list, by yieldteg some tmmaterial points iu thai re spect. The other schedules are reduced about twenty per cont, The remainder of the old thirty per cont sobedule is brought down to twenty four percent, the twenty five to pineteen, the twenty to Atteen, the Gfcen to twelve, the tn to eight, and that part of the old five per cont echea'o which has mot been reduced to the {ree Mat ie brought down tofour percent. Mo ssid tho eggregato recvction wold be aboot fourteen millicns. He wae ratisfed that this bill would give retief to tho comptry and stimolaie and sirengthen the arm of Ameri can \ndustry.
