THE DAILY TIMES. FRRIDAY, OCTOBER 22. Facts Connected with the Tariff. We are assured by our Pennsylvania cotempo rariee, that tbe resent defeat of tbe Administration Democracy in that State, is traceable, among other oauaea, to a general dissatisfaction with the operations of the present Tariff- The same au thority informs us, that the returns from the iron rnaufacturing districts, more than elsewhere, ox - hibit a falling off in the Democratic vote. The Bankruptcy and ruin, which for the last twelve months have swept with desolating violence through every condition and avenue ot Northern industry, have found a solution in Pennsylvania in the fact that the existing tariff affords an insuffi cient protection to American labor. Something more than a mere statement of the relation ot cause and effect is necessary to command our belief in its existence. Obviously, the inquiry is not imperti nent, why this result was not earlier developed. For ten years — from 1846 to ’s6— the duty upon iron was thirty per cent, ad valorem. During ihat period hardly a word was heard from the iron manufacturer on the subject of further protection. In 1856 it was again reduced to six per cent., making the duty 24 per cent. To this objection was made at the time, as it always is; still the clamor was faint. Everything went along very well until last year, when the crash came. Sud denly, in the twinkling of an eye, it became ap parent that the Colossus of foreign competition had prostrated home manufactures. Now all this is explained simply in this way. During ten years of prosperity everybody in the North be came drunk with the exhilaration of amassing a fancied fortune. In the North-West this riotous j insanity reached its highest development. Many) persons, there, thought that light shone upon no ‘ other portion of the earth’s surface. It, accord ingly, became the theatre for the most extrava gant and visionary speculation. Men lelt to slug g> rds the dull rowtine of legitimate trade,and float ed on the wings of credit through the regions c/ pure chance. Enormous railroad enterprises were projected and,with no reference to cost, pushed forward ; everything standing upon a basis of pure credit, or on grants of public domain at a roman tic valuation Thousands of tone of iron were ordered and supplied, the manufacturer taking railroad bonds or other equally worthier secu rities for payment. The demand being greater than the capacity to furnish, ho never thought of competition, uniil the bubble bursted and revealed the hollowness of his hopes. The audaci'y with which he now asks the country to repair the con sequences of his own reckless improvidence is sel dom paralleled. But further, on this subject We hope it is no evidence of bigotry that wo have eyes ; and in the exercise of this excelleet organ we may be excus ed for rejecting the conclusions which pampered nonsense would have us adopt. In order to make out his claim to further protection, even upon his own notion of justice, the iron manufacturer must show that his pretent distress is chargaeble to the competition of the foreign product. Thi-, we think, it will be rather difficult to do. Fortunate ly figures, always are admirabl corrective of false philosophy, have come to our aid. A coGrnpo rary tells us that “the total imports of railroad iron from Great Britain to the United States, for the first seven months of 1856, compared w ith those daring a like space in 1857 and 1858, are as fol lows: 1856, 1857, 1858, 81,005 tons. 105,613 tons. 5,536 tons. The above figures prove, indisputably, that not to excessive importation and, consequently, not to inadequate protection is the present depressed con dition of the iron interest chargeable. They prove also that there is no demand for iron at this lime, and it cannot be contended that an increase of the tariff will create a demaud. The coincidence, in point of time, between the reduced duty and general bankruptcy, was quiUfsufficient, however, to mpport an i9ue which contributed to the de feat of the Pennsylvania Democracy. Thus we go. Judge Cone’s Letter. We publish to-day, the letter of this gentleman to Mr. John A. Tucker, in which is considered the eligibility of the latter to the office of Judge of the Pataula Circuit. His opinion is in favor of the eligibility, but he thinks that tbe law organizing the Pataula Circuit, and fixing the term of the present incumbent for a period less than four years, unconstitutional. He considers, therefore, that Judge Kiddoo is entitled to hold his seat for the Constitutional term of four years; and that “no election can be legally held for his succession, until the first Monday in January 1860.” The Fair. The Atlanta Intelligencer of yesterday says:— The Fair yesterday opened auspiciously. On en tering the spacious grounds so well fitted up, the visitor is forcibly struck with the amount and va riety of Jive stock on exhibition. Horses of every kind may be seen, .from the fleet racer to the heavy draft horse. Choice specimens of cattle also meet the eye, of a great variety of breeds; the most liberal contributors in this line are Messrs. R. Peters of this city and Mr. Watts. The swine department too is full of interest. Some of the finest specimens ever exhibited in a Southern Fair may here be seen. The Goats and Sheep are ra ther deficient, but there will no doubt be conside rable additions in this respect this morning. In the mechanical department, there are many things rare and interesting to the visitor. A small en gine is on exhibition, made in Ohio, and driving a corn mill—working mo6t beautifully* The la dies department is „well represented. Articles of domestic manufacture, from the coarsest and most useful to the ‘fiueet most ornamental, may be seen in vast profusion. The fruit andlveg etable department is also well sustained, ihe fine arts have their representatives in large num bers. The paintings are most beautiful and ele gant. There you will find raot striking likeness es of Ex Gov. Troup, Gov. Joseph E. Brown, Dr. George D. Phiilips, Col. O. A. Lochrane, B. H. Hill, and a number of others, the originals of which are unknown to the writer. Mr. John Usher has also on exhibition,a specimen of one of bis“ Quaker City Sewing Machines,” the chea pest, simplest, and most efficient now in market. John Quack is also encamped on the grounds with a choice variety of refreshments, which he offers to visitors on the most liberal terms.’ Our space only enables U 9 to take a bare glance at tbe novelties of the Fair, the most interesting ever held in Atlanta. A respectable number of visitors are in attendance. To-day and to-morrow, a multitude are expected. Judge Hardeman.

THE TRIES. Lettor from Hon F- H- Cone* Gkeenesbop.o, Georgia, } ; October 18th, 1858. S To John A. Tucker, Esq., I have received your letter asking my opinion i as to your eligibility as a candidate for the office ; of Judge of the Superior Courts of the Pataula i Circuit, at the election to fe held on the first ! Monday in January next. The facts 1 understand from your letter to tie these : You are member of the Senate- your term of service will not ex pire until ihe first of October 1809. Ihe term oi the present incumbent expires on <he first Mon day in October 1859. The question arises upon the eleventh section of the first article o! *.he Constitution. That section, so far es it has any bearing upon the question, is in the following words: “No per son holding any military commission or other ap pointrr.ent, having any emolument or compensa tion annexed theieto, under this State or the United States, or either of them, (except Justices of the Inferior Courts, Junices of the Poace and officers of the Militia,) ** * shall have.a seal in either branch of the General Assemb v, nor shall any Senator or Representative be elected to any office or appointment by the legislature, having any emoluments or compensation annexed thereto, during the time for which he shall have been elec* ted, with the above exceptions, unless he shall de cline accepting his seat by notice to the Executive within twenty days after he shad have been elect ed, nor similarly member, after having taken his seat, be eligible to snv of the aforesaid offices or appointments during the time for which he shall have been elected.'’ The Constitution of 1777 which was framed within less than one year after the Declaration of ; Independence, contains the following provision ! upon this subject: “No person bearing any post of profit under this ; State, or any person beating any military com- ! mission under this or any other State or States, \ shall be elected a Representative. And if any j Representative shall be appointed to any place of ! profit or military commission which he shall accept j his seat shaP immediately become vacant, and he ; ; shall be incapable ot re-election whilst holding j such office” (Watkins* Digest, 10,11.) The Constitution of 1789, contains a very similar ! provision, (Watkins’ Digest, 26.) These provisions of these several Constitutions, show very clearly that the people of Georgia never intended that any member of the Legislature should at any time hold an office ofemolument or compensation, and that is the sole object ot these provisions, and so far as 1 know, the practice of the Government has been strictly in accordance withthese provisions. If the question was submitted to me whether a ‘ member of the Legislature can hold the office of Judge of the Superior Court, I should unhesitating ly answer, that he could not. But that is not the question presented in your letter. If you are elec ted, you will not hold the office—you will not be a Judge of the Superior Court—you will not pos sess any of the functions nor discharge any of the duties of that office, nor receive any of its emolu ments, until after your term of service as a mem ber of the Legislature expires. The present incumbent, (as you say) is entitled to hold the office until the first of October 1859. You are elected as his successor, you cannot be Judge of the Superior Court until his time expires. You have then ceased to be a member of the Legislature You are then e'igible, and my opin ion is, that if you are eligible at the time you be come Judge— at the time that you assume the du ties of the office; it is all that the Constitution re quires. In the 11th section, the word holding is used, showing that in ordor to disqualify a person from taking his seat as a member of the Lsgislature, he must bo in the possession of the office, in the en joyment of its emoluments. The latter part of the same section says; “ Nor shall any member, after having taken his seat, be eligible to any of the aforesaid offices or appoint ments during the time for which he shall have been elected.” What is the meaning of these words, “eligible to any of the aforesaid offices]” clearly, shall not be eligible to hold any of the aforesaid offices, and giving the words this meaning, is in harmony with the previous part of the section— and this construction fully effectuates the intention of the framers of the Constitution by excluding from the Legislature, all persons who hold offices of emolument. The framers of the constitution never contem plated the idea of electing Judges of the Superior Court or other officers, for a long period previous to their entering upon the duties of their office. The necessity for this has grown mainly out of the Act of 1856, which declares that the elections for Judges of the Superior Courts shall be held on the first Monday in January. The term of ser vice of many of our Judges expires in November and in order to prevent a vancaney their succes sors must be elected on the January previous, so that a person is frequently elected some ten months previous to the time when his term of service com mences. During this time and previous to his entering upon the duties of his office, I am ot opinion that he is not a person holding office within the mean ing of this Section of the Constitution. My opin ion is that his elegibility depends not upon the t.me of his election, but upon the time of his enter ing upon the duties of his office. 1 am therefore of opinion that as you cannot enter upon the du ties of Judge of the Superior Coutfs of the Pataula Circait, until after your term of service as a mem ber of the Senate ehall have expired, that you are constitutionally eligible as a candidate for that of fice at the election to be held in January next. But there is another question connected with this matter, which in my opinion renders it wholly unnecessary to decide the question, whether you are eligible or uot. In looking at the Act or ganizing the Pataula Circuit (Laws of 1855 and ’56, page 216) it is provided by the 2nd section of the Act that an election lor a Judge of the Supe rior Court for said District, shall be held on the first Monday in April next (1856) and that he , shall hold his office from his qualification, and for I three years after the first Monday in October next, I (1856) —this makes the term of service about three | years and six months. j Now the first section of tbe third article ot the 1 Constitution declares as follows “The Judges o f the Superior Court shall be elected for the term of four years, and shall continue in office until their successors shall be elected and qualified.” The Legislature possessed no power whatever to alter this term of tervice, the Constitution has placed it entirely beyond their control. If th*y can prescribe the term of service of a Judge to be three years and six months, they can preecribeone year, or any number of years. lam therefore of opinion that the present incumbent is entitled to hold his seat for the period of four years, which I supp w will expire in the month of April 1860, and that no election can be legally held for his suc cessor until ihe first Meuday in January 1860. Io looking tt tbe Aot organUing the Tallapoow Circuit, tbe fifth section prescribes that au election shall be held for a Judge of the Superior Court of said District, on the first Monday in January next (1857) who shall hold bis office uotii the first Mon day ia October 1359—that is that he shall hold it for about the term of two years and nine months. Now the Legislature possessed no power to fix any time during whieli a Judge shall hold his office* other than that prescribed by tbe Constitution, four years. The present incumbent therefore of this Circuit is entitled to hold bis office until January 1861, and no election can legally be held for bis successor until January of that year. I make these remarks in relation to the Talla poosa Circuit because I have been written to in re lation to that Circuit, and I wish this letter to be considered as an answer to all who have written me upon the subject.

D. Herndon. M. D, Secretary. From Russia- it affords us pleasure to state that, by a letter from Hon. F. W. Picketts, our Min ister at the Russian Court, we learn that both himself, the members of the legation, and his family, wore well,ami much pleas ed with their * xperience (thus far) of life in St. Peter- Jttrg. We take the liberty of copying a few observations of general importance : “The interests of the two Governments (the Russian and American) are becoming daily more intimate. Our increasing settle ments and trade in California and on the Pacific are bringing us into intercourse with Russian possessions on the Amour river and the Asiatic coast, as well as with their possessions in America. The trade ot the Amour river is immense, something like $530,000,000 a year, and growing very rap idly. I have consuls under rny jurisdiction through Asia as well as in Europe, and their reports and accounts to me bring me into official communication with a iarge portion of the globe. I had no idea that the actual business o( this office was as extensive and important as it is. We have large American merchant houses in this city ; and American ships at Cronstadt are more numerous than those ot any other nation except Great Britain. Thirteen ships arrived this season direct from Char leston and New’ Orleans, loaded with cot ton, without having touched at Liverpool at all, as has heretofore been the case.- The direct trade must increase every year. Manufactures in cotton are increasing im mensely about Moscow ; and one may see loads of Cotton here every day in the streets, passing to the railroad for that point.”— Edgefield Advertiser. California Grapes. California is to become a great wine-pro ducing country— both its soil and climate being admirably adapted to the growth of the vine, of which it possesses a number of excellent native varieties. The Alta California of the 13th ult., says that the wines of California are rapidly rising to an important place in the com merce of the State. “The grape (it says) has a great delicacy of flavor, which is affected by the slightest variety in soil, so that according to the common taik of wine growers in Europe, no two vineyards produce wines of precisely the same taste. And yet there is such a general resemblance between ihe wines of the different wine-growing countries that where the country is mentioned the general characteristics are known, provided they have been well managed. But not so iti California. The wines of Sonora, San Luts Ouispo, Los Angelos and San Diego differ widely from each other; and each place can be made to produce numerous vaiietiesof its own. In a few years we shall have wines from the mining counties from Shasta to Tuolumne, and these again will produce new varieties, and all of them excellent. The Sonora Herald of the 11th inst. says, “So abundant is the grape crop of this county getting to be, that the culti vators will shortly be compelled, lor want of a market for their fruit, to turn their at tention to the manufacture of wine.” So, in addition to the treasure list, the California steamers will, after a few years, bring us a “wine list.” The Senate Secured for the Opposi- T ion. —Very unexpectedly to both parties, the New York Senatorial district has gone lor the Opposition. We have received in telligence that the the Democratic candidate William 11. Welsh, the late Speaker of the Senate, the favorite of Mr. Buchanan, and his Secretary for a time while he was Minister to London, has been defeated by Daniel Kraber, the Opposition candidate by one hundred majority. This, if true, astfe believe it to be, secures the Senate to the Opposition, even without the Northumber land District, which is still in doubt. The Opposition thus have both branches of the Legislature.— Philadelphia Bulletin. The Comet’s Curved Tail. —A corres* pondent yesterday asked an explanation of the cause of the curved appearance of the comet’s caudal appendage. We did not feel qualified to answer, although we thought it had as good a right to curl its tail as a cat, or have a kink in it as a pig. But another correspondent, who does speak ex cathedra from the tower of an astronomical observatory, nrd acknowledges himself a lay member of the scientific school, says the comet is not within the ulterior range in which the earth exerts an attractive influ ence ; that the part facing the sun is of concave form, from which the solar rays are reflected in a direct line to their source, but the velocity with which the comet is travelling from north to south necessarily causes the curve on account of the differ ence of time it takes the different reflected angles oflight to reach our vision, and that if the comet were to come to a dead halt where it now is. the tail would, in the course of time, become as straight as a loon’s leg. We must confess this explanation is a “whortleberry above our persimmons,” and therefore we refer it to the watchmen of the night who are stationed on the “light houses of ths Journal Telegraphic.
