AT a time when the energies OF the ma
ion SEEM awakened to the state OF our is-
ejgn and domestic concerns, we conceive
hat the important interests OF Agriculture
and Manufactures should meet With cohsi'
derable share Of the public discussion. Ger
tain it is, that al no period OF cur political
history could these national subjects excite
more interest or be more properly urged 70
The notice of the pnbli5 mind. The unsettled
and impending appearance OF our foreign al
fairs, and the present disturbed STATE o. tie
European world, renders II doubly necessary
for the citizens Of America to cherish and
promote their domestic pelicy, whereby they
NAV derive those resources which are now
obtained from abroad and create wealth ana
industry within themselves. Too long have
these important and patriotic interests been
neglected. The nation now feels their want,
and we trust will duly provide Tor their sup
port. Government, hitherto engaged In other
concerns, will nov cherish those domestic
institutions, which will preserve the nations
dignity and promote the peoples welfare.
