THE TARIFF BILL SHELVED | Its Postponement tn the Senate Until December Next. &. &. &. Wasmrxoros, July 12, 1866, THE CABINET CRISIS. This has beon the most exciting day in political mat- ‘ters that has passed in Washington since the assembling ‘of Congress. The rupture in the Cabinet, the cavalicr shelving of the Tariff bili by the Senate and the proceed- ings of the Jacobin council last night have conspired to create @ furor of excitement im the popular mind, and turn people crazy with speculation and anxiety. Foremost of all is the long anticipa- ted, long deferred, bat none the less welcome Tupiure in the Cabinet. At the present writing the re- signaton of but one Minister—Mr. Dennison—is defi- tely known to have been received, though if all float- ing ramors could be relied on more than half the Cabi- net hog asked to be relieved from duty. _ It is? however, almost certain that Mr, Dennison has merely set the ex- ‘ample that was wanted, and that at least three others ‘will soon follow. Those potnted at as about to resign are Messrs. Stanton, Harlan and Speed. It was these to whom Mr. Garfield referred in his speech before ‘the Jacobin council last night, when, as one speaking by authority, he announced the withdrawal of one Secretary, and added, that within a week several others would fol- Jow. Mr, Dennison has caused a paragraph to be in- serted in the Star this evening in reference to bis with- drawal, in which it is stated that the relations between Mr. Dennison and the President have been en- tirely friendly. Mr.. Dennison was the President of the Convention which nominated President Lincoln for a second term, and he does not conceive {it to be consistent with his political ‘views to countenance the call for the Philadelphia Con- ‘vention, regarding the latter as in antagonism to the Tepodlicam party se represented in the Raitimore Con- vention of 1864 This is doubtless the ground upon which be desires the matter to go to the public, but it is ‘@ patent fact that be and the gentlemen referred to above have openly disagreed with the President recently in regard to the proposed veto of the new Freedmen’s Bureau bill, which is doubtiess the more immediate cause of the disruption, and added to this is the expres- sion of the Jacobins last night that no person having jonght to do with the Philadelphia Convention could train in th ir company. mn ' ‘These considerations apply with equal force to Stanton, Speed and Harlan, aod strengthen the conviction that ‘they will withdraw in a very few days, Speculation is vite as busy with the names of probable successors as with those who are to create va- canciea, No appointment has yet been mado in place of Mr. Dennison, but it seems quite probable that Governor Randall, at present First Assistant Postmastor General, will be promoted to the head of the department. It bas been known for some weeks that Governor Ran- dal! has been ander orders to hold himself in readiness to accept a Cabinet office; but the public would have it that the Interior Departinont was the one intended for him. But on this point you will remember I telegraph- ed you two weeks ago that Judge Brown, of Illinois, had been tendered that position. His friends still insist that on Mr, Harlan's resignation he wil! succeed to the office. Therefore naturally Randall will take the Post Ome. There is @ general romor prevalent in well informed circies that the War Department will not be immediately filled should Mr, Stanton resign, but that General Grant JJed upon to exercise the functions of Secretary ad interim, in connection with his command in chief of the army. Tho imtimate relations existing be- tween these two offices render it in the highest degree des\rablo and important that harmony should exist, avhich hes not been the case for some time Pati, and should a vacancy now occur it in thought that rather than fncur the risk of introducing Avot er disturbing element Grant will be assigned to the duties of the position as indicated until the army shall be placed tally op a peace footing, and the couniry be Tortored to tranquillity and perfect civil rule, {The ooly names I have heard mentioned in connection with the Attorney-Generalship are those of Judge Stans- Derry ard Reverdy Johnson, Montgomery Blair ia talked of in connection with the Post Office Department, but wi) scarcely any degree of authority. Tt ts even @oubt!. if hid friends will press bim for the vacancy, it Doing considered impolitic to do so at this time, THE KADIC oarces. The appearance of the Aanatp this evening, with a full report of the proceedings of the Jacobin council of Yast ni it, cannes much comment, The caucus has been B prominent topte of conversation throughout the day, put nobody knew what had been done or said until the arrival of the Henaty at six o'clock this evening. Tho mecting i# considered to have been a very weak and im- politic oMalr, ealenlated to do vastry more injury to the padicals than to any one elec. It was weak in that it exposes fally their game and the amount of ammunition poey bave. They confess their inability to contend against the President, except through the machinery of 6 public ofcer, and in order to carry on the contest we to Insist that Mr. Johason shall carry on the government with no power over his own subordinates, and they feeling no responsibility towards him. More- they write themesives down as cormorants, seeking only place, The whole purpose of the ‘ical party, a portrayed in this caucus, is to oll & few country post offices and marshal- ‘ships. The proposition to remain in session throughout ‘the summer creates intense disgust and {ndignation. y predict that euch a proceeding will certainly kill with the people, who are already tired of this un- Auly protracted session, which has been and stili ts large- devoted’ to voting away the public money, It will , he surprising if this determination to hold over shall reconsidered at an carly day. SURLVING THE TARIFF BILL IN THE SENATE. 4 The wnceremonioas manner in whieh the Senate dis. j of the Tariff bill to-day, by quietly pitching it on to | \p shelf until next December, is working a row. Mr. jorrill, who has worked on it all winter, and through- it the past two weeks of unprecedented hot weather, | (4 hes labored night aed day engineering it | jthrough the House, Is particularly disgusted. The | (New Bngiand and Pennayivania intereste are ' rticwlarly belligerent im the matter, The West, on ithe contrary, ie intensely pleased with the result, and ; ‘ithoogh may Restern mee profese great confidenre thet the Menate will reconsider their hasty section, it it aumreoly powsible thai (uey will do 89, lagecd wore erg . Bo other consideration to determine the actiou of Sena- tors in the matter, their party interests were suilciently strong to lead to the course adopted. No party could possibly hope to succeed with the people this fall that had this bill to carry. If the interests of the party de- mand it it can be taken up next winter, after the elec- tions and passed. Very likely such an effort will be made, but at present it ia stone dead. BOLD MHASURES OF THE RADICALS IN MISSOURI TO CARRY THE COMING BLEOTION. A prominent citizen of Missouri. and an old friend of of the State of Missouri. The object of these gentlemen was to apprise the President of the fact that Gover- nor Fletcher and the radicals of the They asked tho President whether he intended that Governor Fletcher, McNeil and others like them should have the control of the military de- partment, and whether the poople wore to be left to the mercy of Fletcher's militia and nogro troops, The Presi- dont replied that without intending to make any pollti- cal issue with Governor Fletcher, he would see that tho people were protected in the full and free enjoyment of their civil and political rights. Mr, Noel then said :— But suppose, Mr. President, that the citizens of any county apply to he commander of the district or department, and he refuses to interfere for their protection.” “Thon apply to the Secretary of War,” replied the President. ‘ut our people will not apply to him,’ said Mr. Noel, “Thon apply to me,” said the President; “it is the duty of the Executive to protect all citizens of the United States from violent interference while in the enjoyment of their rights as citizens.’’ Mr. Noel further said that the con- servative Union party in Missouri was Gomposed mainly of stern and unflinching Union men, who were loyal from patriotism, but who refused to turn the results of the war into proscription for their own benefit; that of the men whose loyaity has been tried tho conservatives have twenty thousand majority in the State, and that the pur- pose of the radicals was to secretly commit outrages upon Union men and raise acry of “Bushwhackers” to justify bringing a hostile force to overawo and drive out peaceable citizens, and in the large conservative counties to prevent elections being held or to destroy the poll books after the vote. The interview was cordial and frank, and the President's responses clear and unmistakeable. VISITORS TO THE WHITE HOUSR. A large number of visitors were at the White Touse to- day; but the President was unable to admit any but those coming on the most urgent businese. Secretaries Welles and Harlan, and Attorney General Speed, were admitted. CONSOLIDATION OF POLITICAL CLUBS. The caucus of the executive committees of the two Johnson clubs of this city met to-night, and perfected one common organization by making Hon. A. W. Ran- dall President, and Charles Mason Secretary. The moct- ing was fully attended and generally harmonious. APPOINTMENTS. General Robert L. Bodine, of Penneylvania, has been appointed Consul at Capo Town, Africa, and R.

Romero, the Mexican Minister received to-day :— id TA All appearances make us believo hold out many days more against the liberal forces, whose headquarters# are at Altamiry, six leagues from ‘Tampico, ee es aoe bar on the north side of the river, Lasn Moln is defended by French »: diera, aud the harbor defences consist of the French gunboat betel and the armed towboat Moequito, This ix an insignl it force, although it ts the main reliance of the French in their expectations of holding the place. All the other defences ate garrisoned by impressed and disaffected Mexicana under Samadrid, who is viewed with @ suspicious eye by the French officers, Late last night the Difigent, with some force from the forte, was sent to Panuco to recapture that place, which has beon very recently ccompled by the liberals. “ince the Oth inet. a party of the liberals have twice entered the military lines of this city and killed several of the French. It is now ascertal that fifteen hundred men and ten pieces of artillery comprise the force of the liberaly at Altamaria, and that they arc only awaiting the arrival of their chief, General Aure- liar Rivero, who is dally expected from Tula, to make the final attack on this place, The news of Mojia's defeat near Camargo has reached here, and causes great alarm tm the ranks of perialiate.

It may be, Mr. President; but we bave not been thus far able to conceive It to be that kind of amenaure. We want an opportunity to satisfy our constituents (if it Is going to be to their advantare) that it is really going to operats in that way. At prosent we do not so pees it, 1 might refer the Senator (Mr. Wilson} to the vote in another body, to which I have no right, perhaps, to allude specifically, in which he will find that the New England representatives voted sol'd for It, Of the fifty-two votes cast against it forty were from the Northwest. Iam not go'ng to deny that thore may be Jndividuals in the Northwest, and there may be individual tnteresta in the Northwe-t, that may conceive they will be benefited by the nassage of sneha bill as this; but I deny that thero is any very considerable portion of the Northwest in favor of tuch 4 proposition at this time. It may be possible that, after the due consideration and discussion: of this measure, they may conclude it will be to their advantage to pase the bill; bat I think it will be some time bpfore we shall bo able to bring the of the Northwest up to the belief that it is to their advant to-increase the duty on steel- an essential to their very existence and pros- Perity—thirty-three per cent. I don't believe you can convince the people of my State that it will be to their advantage to put a daty on what ts so necessary to the development of their State as lumber, without which they cannot make their farms prodactive—to put on jumbera duty of three dollars per thousand. don't believe that you can convince them that It will be to their advan to tnerease the duty on iron variously from ten to fifty dollars ton, You cannot convince them that it will be to their advantage to increase the duty on tho low grades of cutlery, such as goes into evory farmer's house, six hundred por cent, Mr. Powrroy Interrupted Mr. Grimes to ray that it was = of order to discuss the merits of @ bill on a motion to refer. Mr. Griues—I am not disc T understand that on a motion of to state my reasons why it should be no desire to discuss the morita of this bill. [have shown three reasons—substap ones I think—why this measure should go over till December. Accord ‘to Its provisions it cannas into effect before the Lat Avgust. I do not think the Committee on Finance can give it that consideration and investigation which it de- serves and be able to report it to us to have it acted on before the Ist of August. The postponement until De- cember will be only foar months, In tho meantime we ean learn what the sentiment of the country is in regard tothe measure. We can determine whether or not, in view of the changes which have taken place ia regard to Internal taxation, whether there is any necessity for the passage of the bill. Mr. Wapy, (rep.) of Ohio—T am entirely surprised by the motion of the Senator from Iowa. Now, sir, I do not think we have any because it is suppowed we are overworked and have in session a while, T don't think we have any right to neglect the consider. ation of the beet interests of the country. I don't be- Neve any of us are so entirely overworked that we ought to shrink from needed legislation for the best interests of the country, Noone can be more anxious than Tam to get out oe. I would like very well to go at large for awhile, but I will never consent to desert my post so long as I’ think there is a materiai interest that requires investigation, action or labor. So, I think, that part of the argument onght not to apply. There are some great outside reasons why this bill ought not to be post; for a single moment. We know that foreign importations, under the present Tariff bill, are pouring into this country to such an extent that our exports have no proportion whatever to ovr Imports; that the country is drained of all ite gold and silver the Moment it comes and with ail the grain and pro- visions we have, we have been importing wheat from Europe into thie country for the sustenance of our people, Something is, therefore, wrong about ft, and I don’t like to see this question spoken of a8 a nectional question, for in my judgment it is not, It has none of the characteristics of a sectional question; and if tt haa, sir, the Northwest, to which T belong, is more interested than any other portion of the country. You are endeavoring to hew out chaunel, by which you ean transport your grow materials to @ market. I am told that corn hae been burned for fre- wood and sold for ten cents a bushel, You are endeavor ing to make channels for Ceanapoyting it to market. That oliey has been tried longenoagh. It i utterly absurd. The Northwest will never prosper under any sich state of things. Something is wrong. I know it is sad Fastern manufacturers grow rich outof their invest. ments. [ hope they do, thongh I don’t know it. I hope the Northwest will soon learn to do the eame thing In my jadgment we ought to do it. We ought not to let our produce go to Europe and avail oar. selves of their pauper labor there rather than to bring the manvfactaring to our own shores. Our present ayatem is as absurd as the old fashioned way of putting the wheat in one end of the bag and a stone in the other going to mill LThope we will not postpone thie bill a moment. Jt ts no experiment. “ince 1816 we have tried the experiment of protection on every trade by tarns. Every man conversant with the history of the country during this long period will find in every imstance that the prosperity of the country has been exactly propor tioned to the dogree of protection given to manufactures and indastry. Mr, Wade continued his remarks, ad vocating protective tari, and concluded with the hope that the Tariff bill would be sent to the Finance Com Mittee, and immediately reported to the renate. Mr, Fiewm ory said he did not to diseons the Merits of tly) bill just now. He had kept himseif in some the merits of the bill. kind [have a right tponed.
