Tlic Tariff Hill which has hern carefully and thoroughly consid eretl by the full Committee of Ways anil Means, will be report ed to the House next week, and then will begin the great battle for the rights of the people. Stale treaaurer, James W. Tate, of Kentucky, has suddenly dis appeared, leaving a shortage in his accounts of nearly a half mil lion dollars. It is reported, how- erer. that the deficit la fully cov ered by bond. The protectionists, so far as we have seen, hare given no reason W hither are we Drift lug. Previous to I860, when the Southern Stales seceded from llie Union, a strict construction of the federal constitution, was the prin cipal article in the creed of the Democratic parly. No proposed measure that did not tall wiilnn the limits of this fundamental idea, could become n law withoui encountering .the determined le -dalaure of the great leaders ol his party of the people. Protrc tive tariffs, schemes of internal improvements, and other like propositions were vigorously as sailed, because there could not lie found in the compact of Union, •my express provision for such measures. It would have lieen well for our country, if the party which cherished this sacred re gard for the constitution, could always hare controlled ita desli nies. But such has not been the case. A party utterly without principles, and inspired by a fan atical sentimentality, was organ Immigration. It will be seen from the 0,0 n letter, by Col. W. .1.

The object of this movement is to advertise the rr- wonreesof the Stale, and, to use •very honest means lo attract and induce the immigration of thrifty and industrious settlers. This object is eminently commendable, and it is eminently important. The experienre of the last twenty- five years has cerlainlj' made it apparent to all thinking and rea sonable men that the old planla tion system, withjfrec labor, can uot be successfully maintained. What we need, and must have, ere we enjoy real prosperity, is the dividing up of these large estates mlr small farms, and the settling necessary and unjust laws.

Now why is this? The only answer is, that they art actuated more by motives of self ish interests, lliau by considera tions of the public welfare.
