This is a brief sketch of the progresi of a Manu

TRADE, the second mid powerful pillar of British
wealth, is being brought into a state of ruin which,
if not timely counteracted, will ultimately inflict the
deepest wounds on our National credit. And it is
with the hope that we may contribute to this counter.

derangement, that we have for some time Inten en-

spinners—that they ilispdse of ill, the p.m: which

—that the German weavers need British Twist foe
their werps, without which same of the Continental
yarns could not bewove—that they are extending their
machinery as fast as time and capital will allow them
—and that as soon as they have accomplished their
object. nu more British yarns will be iirported
Yes, they know all this; and yet, with a blind infa-
tuation, they wish the exportation of Cotton Yarns to
be continued, hoping that, before the foreign machi-

have made their tortures—lthough at the expense of
the ruin of all our rri.tnuf.acturers,and

The argument is a very short one. The Yarns are
bought from us, not for the purpose of rendering us
a service, but because they cannot yet produce them
themselves :
,they are bought from us. because their
own manufacturers need them and cannot do without
them- —in other words, because there is a market for
die fabrics when manufactured. Refuse them you,

your own manufacturers. Refuse them, and you
