place, the Advantages of an independcnt

markets, and of growing body of ma
riners, trained by their occupations for
the service OF their country, in times of
danger, must be diminished.
The receipts into the treasury, during
the year ending on the thirtieth of Sept.
have exceeded thirteen millions and
half of dollars, and have enabled us to
defray, the current expenses, including
the interest on the publick debt, and to
reimburse more than five million OF dol
lars OF the principal, without recurring
to the loan authorized by the act OF the
last session.. The. temporary loan ob-
tanned in the latter end of the year one
thousand eight hundred and ten, has al
so been reimbursed, and is not included
In that amount. 80
The decrease of revenue, arising from
the situation of our commerce, and the
extraordinary expenses which have and
may become necessary, must be taken
into view, in making commensurate pro-
visions for the ensuing year. And re-
commend to your consideration the pro-

the interest ON the publick debt, includ-
ing that on new loans which may be au-
thorized.

country, scattered as they are over an immense
territory, cannot work up, or Ind use Tor all
the raw materials which they can produce, or
consume all the grain which they can raise
The encouraging them to raise more, would
only be an encouragement for waste.
AS long as farmer can lind ready sale
and good market for what his industry Will
produce, it is encouragement enough. but
stop this vent, and the disorder is without re-
medy. ANY encouragement which could De
given by means of lotteries, premiums, &c.
would be like drop in the ocean-lt wouid
give no spur to the general spirit OF industry.
Let our merchants have the privilege OF car
rying the surplus produce OF the country
where they think proper, and it will supercede
the necessity or even utility Of national lot
terry; for where market is opened, the Peo-
pie will find the way to get to 1t, and open
roads themselves. No further encourage
ment need be given than that OF good price.
It would have been more reasonable had
the proposer of the lottery for the encourage
mept of agriculture, varied it i'll such way as
to read g for the purpose of building trlgate
every year, with the view of protecting our
commerce - this would give spring to our
agricultural and manufacturing interests.
do not suppose that SUCH scheme would
ever be granted; yet should 1t be, this indl-
rect method of encouraging agriculture,
would have better effect than the means
proposed by the Intelligencer.

sriendor or rnagni6cence. In hard times eve-
ry man is compelled to Contne his expences,,
Within the limits of his income-to retrench
what is useless, and to diminish what IS neces-
sary to scale of the strietest economy.
These observations have been rendered SO ia
miliar wi hin three or four years, as TO re-
oaire no minute illustration. Experience has
been woefui teacher all that time.
But the greatest evil is, that the n,al-adInl-
nistration which produces present distress,
will have a permanent operation. The differ
ent species of national industry, which are
falling, one after another, before the ruthless
policy of the factionists, who have degraded
and ruined Us, are falling, generally speak
ing, never To rise again. Every month and
every year, rival productions are fomented and
brought to market, under circumstances OF
preference, which will sink our own. Nor
can we phusibly feign any cause otcomplalnt.
Who can blame the British, if they prefer to
ours, their own grain, cotton, rice, indigo,
wood tobacco, or the same artclesirom their
allies! ESpept grain, we have completely
lost the markets, which received these aftl-
cles, through the emulation, which we have
not only encouraged but compelled. 10 use
the expressive language OF a deceased states
man, we have acted " as il the world were
fed or starved as we listed-when we opened
our hand, we diffused plenty among mankind
when we closed it, they pined and died.
This unfortunately has been detected, by the
experiments we have Instituted ourselves, to
be nothing more,than magic spell, and has
therefore lost its potency. 1t has been found,
that the igreversible law of mutual dependence
among nations, suffers 10 special exception
in our favor; that we are not like the ancient
Jews, favored with privilege to tread upon
the necks Of others; but, that in spite OF sell
love, when we mistake eur prerogatives' and
arrogantly assume ideal rank and superiority,
we are, like other nortals, directly led to a
lower station than is our own. Had we en-
couraged the delusion, which enriched US,
and rendered US rot only SO seit-lmportant,
but which imposed an ideal dominion over
those whose interests were in collision with
our own, future generations would not have
to suffer for the folly of the spurious states
men, VINO call themselves patriots, but who
will be branded through al future ages, as
impostors or traitors, if their. own insignia
canoe does not sink their names into oblivion,
and leave the ruin alone to be dePlored, with
out the preposterous tgophy OF the ba: barous
Conquerors who achieved 1t.

COMMUNICATION,

Nh. PRINTER,
1t appears that the Inteliigencer's scheme
Of { National Lottery is properly repro
bated BY some Of the Democratic Editors, on
the score of unconstitutionality. But as a
theoretical scheme, having for its object the
welfare OF the nation, should think it liable
to some other exceptions.
The proper application of the money thus
raised, would be a far more difficult task than
that of raising it. To apply it directly to the
purposes of agriculture, would answer little
purpose, other than giving one particular part
of the country preference over the other
To apply it Indirectly, that is, in paving loads
and cutting canals, 10 give our citizens a
ready conveyance of their produce 10 market,
would be highly beneficial, provided they had
as free passage from as to these places. But
partial laws, for the benefit Of one part OF the
community, while the others are unaided and
unprotected, is like doctors applying ca
taplasrn to one part of the human body, while
the circulation ofthe blood is stopped through
out the system.
WHY should agriculture be encouraged,
while produce can have no market! 1t would
be accommodating an unnecessary stock In the
hands of the farmer, which he would not pos
sibly 6nd vent for. The inhabitants OF this
