THE TRIBUNE. THURSDAY MORNING, JULY 13. FOR PRESIDENT, ok JK.m'citt. Wanted, an Ag-nt for this pawr at Photiokjcck, R. No one need apply unies? he lesides and acquainted in that cuv.

We have returns from New.Orleans only, which indi. catc a decided Loco-Foco triumph.

This was not unexpected. The Loco-Foco candidates vir. tually pledged themselves to the People of Louisi ana to sustain the present rates of duty on Su? gar and procure a reduction of the Tariff on etery thing beside. Now by taking I his course? promising to make the general interest of the whole People give way at every point to the sup? posed local interest of the particular constituency you is possible to gain a temporary advantage so long as a portion of the constituen? cy are simple, selfish and short-sighted. But a victory so won is in effect a ruinous defeat, for it is morally impossible that the expectations which it raises can be fulfiled.

We believe the advantage so dishonestly obtained bv our oppo? nents in Louisiana will work them far more inju? ry than any defeat they have sustained for years. We have New-Orleans papers only to the morn? ing of the 4th, with the rote of that City only. It is as follows: Co.v; ess. Leg'i bl to Municipality. Kogers, Labatut.

John Slidell, Loco, is certainly elected to Con? gress from the 1st. District, and probably AJcec La brauche, ditto, from the Second, though that is not certain. Gov.

White goes out of the City only 111 ahead. It will be seen that there was just no vote out in New-Orleans, a city with 100,000 inhabitants, and which has given over 4,400 voles, now gives less than 2,300. Tiie Effects the Tariff. From the Herald's Money Article of Yesterday, The condition of the trade of the country is rery singular, A country of great wealth, und with money abundant upon the Atlantic paralyzed in all.its channels of business; bj the terrible inlluence of Ind. unequal and un just tariff laws.

We take the following from the IIIi? uois ingamo Journal: We happened to be in a store of this city a da) "i two ago, cariosity led us to take down the present present pi ici i i the following their prices the rascally tariff'wem into operation. prices shova the effect of the tariff upon thecostofthe leading articles of consumption among the people Of the West: Pricesin ta 12.

These goods en the shelves of the Springfield store, w.r, probably imported lust year, under the low taiiff, ot manu? factured here while it in operatiou, vet the prices have fallen near 60 per cent, notwithstanding thai imports have nearly ceased since the expiration of the compromise act.

What au appalling evidence is this of the prostration of bn- shiest under the influeuce of iniquitous legislation stroyingthe outlet for agricultural produce, the means of the great mats of consumers of goods have hen so far destroyed to deprive them of the means of buying their usual su plies, even the extraordinary sacrifice to which dealers of? fer to submit- Of what use is it to the fanner that his toil is rewarded by a bountiful Providence with a prolific c.fter the wants of Ins family are supplied; human ition interferes and forbids him from selling the lurplus, ot which it the same thiag, from receiving foreign goods in payment Of what use it it to bim I hat (iiea! lint.ii'i Ins thrown down barriers to trade on her part, if the United States Gov? ernment interposes new ones? We wish to fix the public attention on the des? perate shifts and devices of the journals in the British interest in this country. When the New Tariff was under discussion, and some time after its passage, they plumply asserted that tin- in. crease of Duties under this Tariff would greatly increase the price of nil Protected articles, espe. daily Manufactures. The resolutions of Tamma? ny Hall and the several Congressional Conven? tions of the Loco-Focos of our City assorted it as a conceded, notorious truth that the Tariff would increase the price of Manufactures 25 to 50 per cent.

Even in the interior, that numerous and worthy class of men who live by hiring their labor by the day or month to men of greater means were taken aside by Loco-Focos who ue no! openly oppose the Tariff, but who said to them privately. Why should you support the Tariff? players may make money by it, for they will sell their products at higher prices but you will have to purchase those products and pay a third more for them, while your wages will remain where they arc. Your interest is clearly on the 1 side of Free Trade and cheap goods." Bv such secret of Whigs were in? duced last Fall to vote Loco-Foco or not vote at all. When we asserted that Protection would redim speedily the cosl of Manufactured goods, and un? dertook to explain why and Aoie it would, our il. lustrations were treated with contempt, as oppo sed to common sense, and refuted by the simple rules of arithmetic.

Well: a year has rolled round, and even our adversaries can no longer dispute the fan that the price ot Manufactures generally has fallt since the yew Tariff was Cotton and Woolen. fabrics, and almost everv article efficiently protected by the New Tariff are lower than the low prices they commanded before the Duties were than ever before Here the result we were sure would be realized, and which they disdained to consider possible. What is to be done with it I Evidently, their asserted rise of price in consequence of the Tariff has been realized, but our predicted reduction has been. What then The Herald is driven to the as? sumption that the market for our Agricultural Pro? ducts has been destroyed by the New Tariff, so that the Farmers can no longer buy Goods? whereupon the goods cannot be sold, and their price falls ruinously. But this tissue of assump? tion is contradicted by facts at every point.

In the first place, the Farmers of the West have sold more produce during the last than" in any prece? ding year: in the next place, they arc getting a fair price for it. In the third place, the receipts of Tolls on our Canals, as well as of Grain, Flour. on the Hudson, prove that neither the Trade nor the Production of the country is paralyzed, as the Herald represents. The Manufactories never turned out more goods in six months than durinc the last six, and the owners say they are doing a living business. The keenness of competition for.

I bids excessive profits; occasionally mismanage- I mcnt, misfortune, or disadvantageous location. I causes a manufactory to stop and then the stu pid cry is raised, what your Tariff has done if the Tariff had been made for the special benefit of manufacturers, and had been in? tended to guarantee them against all evil effects of their own extravagance, excessive production, or miscalculation of any kind. Yet every intelli- gent mind knows that the general condition of Manufactures, and of other branches of industry among us, is one of moderate but solid prosperity. The assumption of the Herald that our farmers are now prevented from selling their crops bj the we say one word in answer to it 1 Does not the Prices Current of Grain, Flour, Pork, Beef, afford it a sufficient answer? Does any man imagine that the manufacturers of cloths, for instance, will not consume as much Agricultural produce in America'as if they wi re in Europe I and have not our fanners at least quite as vr.xid a chance to supply them with food when working in this country as when working in Europe Then as to the assumption that Great Britain has thrown down the barriers to trade on her is not its audacity akin to madness ho ran be deceived by it 1 Compare the British and American the British duties on such articles as we produce in excess will be found to exceed two hundred per cent, on the average, while ours on British productions do not exceed fifty per cent. And yet we are fold that Great Britain has thrown down the barriers," while we have established a sort of forbidden our farmers to sell their products and gel paid for them Can such assurance impo.se on nnv one with a freeman's intelligence and an Americas heart Our Cotemporaries.

The Courier Enquirer has hazarded the strange assertion that our present Tariff is i- too high for the best interests of. the country," and I that "public opinion will compel its modifica? tion." The Courier is the only Whig paper in I the country, so fir as we can learn, which has expressed such a sentiment. We know that it is repudiated bv ninety-nine hundredths of all the Whigs throughout the Union, and bv great masses of the Laboring portion of our opponents. We are confident that, if the whole People Could vote to-morrow directly on the question, Shall the Tariff stand as it is. or be essentially modi? fied there would be an overwhelming majority for sustaining if.

We are sure that our Wall street cotemporary, without intending it, has confounded the wishes of the Foreign Importing I interest with the sentiment, of the American Peo- very great mistake, as the Courier will one 1 day discover. The Sun, whose conductors have suffered more convictions for libel and made more humil? iating retractions than any other paper in the city, has taken ground very decidedly against libels and slanderers. We could wish this reform were heartfelt, but facts will not permit us to believe it. Eoeo. Foeo papers are now earnestly pressing a regulation whereby Members of Con? gress and Electors of President shall be chosen throughout the Union on one and the same day.

We like the suggestion, though its adoption would involve inconvenience to the people of many States. But with what fade iL put forth by journals which vehemently opposed, belied, and misrepresented the act of Congress requiring that the Members of Congress throughout the Union should be elected by one uniform mode? thai of Single Districts Rochester Evening wishes us to answer certain questions.

Clay over Mr. an Puren for President, was inserted in perfect orpod faith, but would not have appeared had the responsible Editor of The Tribune been that day at his post. As must have been obvious to Political readers, it was copied from a number of the Mercury published seven years Mr. Calhoun turned Loco-Foco. We believe ihr Courier Enquirer is responsible for reviving it at this time without stating the time of its origin.

Com? plaints of the President are yet frequent and ex? tremely violent, and a speedy revolution is confi? dently predicted. Several citizens of Mexico confined in the prisons for political offences were released by Santa Ana, on his birth-day but the Texian prisoners are vet held in bondage.

The inaugural address of Santa Ana to the Le? gislative Junta is moderate in affects threat horror at the concentration of the supreme power in the bands af a single citizen, and promises very patriotically to look after the safety of the State, etc. A part of the troops who capitulated under General Pena have arrived at Tacspico, and the rest, with their General with them, at Vera Cruz. Pena was arrested immediately upon his arrival, and sent under a strong escort to Pe rote and lodged in one of the dungeons of that castle.

He made a fortunate escape, ii indeed it be fortunate for a gallant man preserve life at the expense of imprisonment in the castle of Perote.

John Abbott, formerly of Brunswick, aged 84 years. Mr. Abbott will be most favorably remembered in this State for his long and usi ful rviccs as an officer of Bowdoin College. He was the firsi Professor of igcs in thai institution, which office he held until I-lti. Afterward, for a num? ber of years, he was the Treasurer the College until IS29, when he resigned that office, and lias since resided mostly in Massachusetts.

Mr. Abbott graduated at Harvard College in 1784, in the class with Judge Mellen and IV si dent Webber. In the class preceding him, were Harrison Gray Otis and Ambrose Spencer, both of whom survive. In earlier life, while quite a lad, he accompanied his father, who was Cap. tain in the Massachusetts Militia, to the cam? paign of 1777 in New-York, and his choici when an engagement with Burgoyne and Still water was expected, to take place in the line or to retire to the rear with the baggage.
