Agn.,st iucj, )nfer. ence, he (Mr. C.) appealed lo evory 0Hvnc(.uajmj with the subject, both aa to tho accural, aiatameni ol the quantity of bagging rcquiivt fJf a Lulu of cotton of 40J pound ; and to every in capable- of making the most simple calculation,1 what would be the number ol yard required lr crop, such as hu assumed the present would be ; and what the amount of tho duty would bo at the rale proposed. But the fact at ale J by the Chairman 1 impcr taut and lead to very important conclusions, though very different from what he intended. Though it doet not provo that only three milliona of yards were required, or that the proposed duty on bag ging would only give 8 IS J, 000, if all used were imported ; it conclusively protca that only that amount puised through tho cus'om hxute and paid doty, and that the residue diJ not pay duties. Now, it ta uf no small importance to ascertain what wa the amount ,e.xduded by the dorrwstic article, 1 1 conscience ol the duty, compared to that im ported, when we have befora ua tho question of imposing auch a duty as that proposed by this bill Two millions ol bales would, at fivo and a half yards to tho bale, require eleven millions of yards ; eo llut, il only three were imported, eight would have to be supplied at home a pretty large pro portion of the whole, one would suppose, (or the benefit of the Kentucky manufacturer. No, sir, it is a point cf no little importance to know whut was the duty in 1910 on bagging. It his been reduced under the compromise, and ho supposed was something less than three cents the yard. That amount was sufficient to exclude eight ele venths of the bagging used; and yet, in. tho face of this fact, and ;iu the profession ( daily repeated by the advocates of tha bil') that they only aim at a fair competition betweea iho foreign h1 domes tic articles, it ia piopoed to double nearly the (hty and that, Un, under a bill declared to- be Tor revenue, and nut protection! This" duty, then, comparatively bw as it was, so exelutlcd the im ported bagging, as(lo give a revenue les than 8100.009. Ana what d.i you suppnew, en. wtn4i,f ; have been the rtsult.had it been five, instep fj tare cent tho yard ? The probability is, e(tir the entire exclusion, or nearly eo, of the importeu article, and little or no revenue. Such, at least, would have been the effect, if we are to belic.'j the , Senators from Kentucky, who seem to agree tltct toitoa bagging cannot be undo in their State for less than wxteen centa the yard ; and that if the duty ia not raiaed to fivo eents, the manufacture must atop. But be (Mr. C-) did not think ao. lie believed that they would 'ill goon. Hut, if not, and th whole amount used should bo imported, it would give a revenue, at 2 cents duty on the run ning yard, aa he proposed, of $221,():0 which would t $13,000 more than wnat would be re ' ceived at B ceula the yard, on three millions of yards, eupp3ing that the quantity would be still imported under ao high a duty. It is clear tint 5 centa lha iq jaie yard, or 6 the running, would l-v a duty for protection, ami not for revenue. H" would cot undertake tne tik of attempting to discriminate between incidental and protective du tie far manufactures ; but be w.xild assert that, whenever a duty waa raised so high as to diminish the revenue that is, to reduce it below tne jireat eat amount ol revenue that could be derived from the article it could not justly bo eonstkre 1, a revenue cuty. The excess of duty above th point ot" ttie greatest revenue woiilif be cxcTusTvely tor protect-on ; and pritection w;ujd, in such cases, b clearly the principal, and revenue but the incident. But he did out think that 2 cents duty on rhe yard would top the mifiulacture ol bagging, though it vould probably increase toe imported ar'icle, as 'w eentV oo thu running yard would dimmish it. II- ; betievaJ thai tbere waa a great fallacy in wual is tor the absentees, and .which wis rtur-:M t uvs called protection ! but be would reserve what he 1 Speaksr, who r jsj. a:vi amid tne 'ro.t:ii?i sil-jn-j ' hid to siy 'on that point fur some other stage c! -of tho Sua-ite, said : the discussioa.

A fact atated in the Ohio Statesman, taken in connection with Hie districts provided in tho bill, and the population in each, (as set forth in the Globe last night,) proves suuclusivnly that there is not (lie (lightest pretext for the charge of gorry maudering. Tho Ohio Statesman sy , - " To refute this charge, it need only be stated that, in 1910, thirtt-en of the districts, as formed by tho bill which pissed tho House, gave a majon ty for the Federal partywhilo but eight were Democratic." Itahouldbe observed that all tho districts are composed of contiguous counties, and that they are nearly equal i-i population as they should be made Without severing counties.

Moesrs. Buchanan and Benton led tne opposition. 1 he vnto on it, ato to a noy majority. Mr.-Uilboun eupponea me areaiym apeech which is described as the greatest he ever delivered. A correspondent of the Richmond La quiror writee ae Mlowai 1 mideratand that lb debaie waa ery arduous and able. Mr. Calhoun diatinguiaW himself be. yond all of hia former effort. Mr. Preston, who ie not upon epeakingterme with Ur.C.saysjt waa the greateat effort ol human gentue without a parallel in ancient of modern time. When Hr. Calhoun concluded, I aoi told by one present, that the Sena tors of both aide gathered around bun, tu4 con gratulated him in the moat enthusiastic manner." Of the Treaty itself, the tame writer takes the following sensible view t , -1 bat it aliould have been ao violently opp-iaed, ia to me a matter of eurpriee, if it be ol the char acter it ia described lo be. The Senate ia not the treaty makiua owe, and ought not to reject a treaty, b-c iuae-it is not precisely aoch a one aa could be dumrad. It ca mot know an ot tne aim eulties of the negotiation J and generally it ie to be pMumeJ, that ihi executive tia raanu tne new terms which were practicable. In ordinary rase, llierofire, the Senate ahould ratify a Treaiy which tie Executive hu concluded in which the honor of ihe country iaoot impugned, and the iniereataof the country are not palpably snenficed. Inihie case, I uiiaV'rstand from a source upon which I have the utmost reliance, that in reference to every point of contest with Great Britain, oar side of the question stands upon a b-ttor fo-ni ig than it ui 1 before the I reaty. IT tbie be so, I He country win approve the course of the President and the Senate. Hut the seal of secrecy ha out yet been removed from the proceeding of Jhe Senate, and much ie . . . a i . a left to conjecture aa to the cnaracier ot ine i rcaiy and the correspondence accompanying it.
