ton Of the public to the advantages that
manufactures hold forth: for the history
Of the world abundantly proves, that those
means are ultimately and generally, if not
invariably, destined 10 subserve the great
ends and interests Of agriculture. 1t is
thus by The wise dispensations oil Provi-
dence, and by generous consideration OF
each others objects, that a great and an
enlightened people can alone promote the
general interests Of their country and to
this view Of the only subject which seems
now to divide or rather TO engage the pub
lie opinion, the Members OF the Grand
Jury of the County of Essex very ear
nestiy invite the calm attention and the
dispassionate judgment of their fellow
citizens. 1t is quite clear that the wealth
of the country has been reduced by sys-
TEN of unmeasured import, fact Illus
trated in the most melancholy way, by
,the transactions of their country with In
dia and with England. TO this exposi-
ton the members of the Grand Jury are
in no degree influenced by any invidious
feelings towards interests at home, or to-
wards the policy Of foreign states but
they cannot represent without earnesIness,
nor can they witness without commissera-
ton, the continuance of system which
exposes to wanton peril, il not to certain
destruction, the great aud leading inte-
rests of the country. With these objects
in view, founded upon the explanations
they have given, the members of the Es-
sex Grand Jury recommend to their fell
low citizens the USE OF DOMESTIC MAN
uFAcTUREs in preference to foreign and
the institution Of Societies for the pro
motion Of Agriculture and Manufactures
throughout the country and state, taking
for their motto Food and Raiment, ar

VOTERS OF THE BoRoUGH OF ELIZA
BETH,-Don't give up the ship! Turn
out! turn out Let us rally round the
poll, and once more assert our dignity
Let us shew 10 the County that this b.
rough is not that insignificant place our
enemies represent it. Let us come out
with one voice and one mind to retrieve
our lost character. We were wont to
stand first on the list. We were wont to
send members from this place TO represent
us in the Legislature, and in Congress,
who were inferior TO none others from this
State, or any other State. Why is itthat
we have been so long unrepresented I?
Why is it that we have become so con-
temptible in the eyes of our neighbours /?
Why is it that they think us unworthy OF
voice in the Legislature +? Why is it that
we, who have been accustomed to take
the lead 10 elections, are become tributa-
ries to Orange, Paterson, Bloomfield,
Springfield, and in fact to every place
which thinks proper to make tools and
servants of us, and wishes to rule over
US (? Ought not oar consciences TO smite
us, when we are compelled TO answer to
these questions, it is because we have
been divided among ourselves! Yes, fell
low citizens, it is the wish and design Of
our neighbours TO keep us divided, that
they may keep us ID that insignificance 10
which our own folly reduced US: they
will therefore do every thing to foment
discord among us. Let us defeat the
Vaccinations of our enemies; let us over
come our own party prejudices, let us
throw away every little private pique,
jealousy, or interest, if any such we have,
and come forward, one and all, 10 the sup
port of our townsman-of one who has
been born aud brought up among us-one
who has the same wishes, the same feel
ings, and the same interest with ourselves.
We have been tributary TO others long
enough: it is time TO assert our indepen-
dence. There is now fair prospect Of
success. Let us not fail for want of ex-
ertion on our part. We may depend upon
it, if we do not help ourselves, nobody
will help us. Let our motto be-Don't
give up the ship-and while We have
vote left, let us not rest contented till We
have brought it out, and retrieved our
ancient responsibility and character.
Iwould recommend the following ticket,
not only because they are good men, but
because they will support our townsman.

Patriotic Recommendation Of the Grand
JurY of EsSer County.

Jury Of ESSEX County.
The members of the Grand Jury Of
the County of Essex, viewing with the
deepest concern the present state Of
Morals, are led to an enquiry with respect
to the alarming increase of Vice and
Grimes, which they 10 great degree
trace TO the want of employment among the
laboring and industrious portion of CON-
munity. With this view, they cannot
consent to separate, without expressing
their concern at the ADVERTISEMENTS and
depression in which the trade Of the coun-
try seems so generally and so deeply in
volved. The immense capital invested
in manufacturing establishments is well
nigh lost to individuals and the country.
This fact cannot fail to draw to itself the
attention of the Public, when it is known
that the machinery, especially as applied
to cotton, as well as woollen, is nearly if
not fully equal to the wants of the whole
nation-Obiections they well know, have
been made to the high prices at which
the home fabricks have been, occasionally
sold but such evils, if evils they be,
may safely be left to the spirit of eompe-
tition, to the growing capital OF the manu-
facturer, and above all TO their heavy
investments which a trade unusually lu-
crative never fails to attract; those OBJ
iections however, have ceased to operate (;
for articles of superior value OF American
manufacture can now be purchased at low
er rates than European. Besides, it never
should be lost sight Of, that the advantage
TO the Nation depends not upon the prices
for which the goods manufactured may be
sold, for that chiefly concerns the indi-
viduals, and is indeed incidental to the
formation Of all new establishments, but
that the profits on the labor, by which
they are produced, whilst it stimulates
industry, enterprise and ingenuity, calls
into operation the dormant resources, and
increases the means of National Inde-
pendence.
Domestic manufactures, in the opinion
Of the members of this Jury, have strong
claim to additional protection originating
in period Of imperious necessity, and
supplying in great measure private and
public wants; all classes hailed them as
an additional pillar Of our National indie.

Rod lowered over our political horizon

messenger to the United States, 10 explain

amuse our government with further me-

that the American executive should be

+" You will no doubt see many alarming
reports in our newspapers respecting the
public meetings in this country. Tircse
accounts are greatly exaggerated; but the
cause Of such assemblies is too certain and
arue. They arise principally from the
depressed state of trade, aud the over
whelming force Of taxes and poor rates.
Persons, once independent, tind their
means daily diminishing, and themselves
obliged TO leave the country. Emigration
is the main subject of discourse aud atten-
Aion. This town has usually been very
busy at this season of the year, but there
is now scarcely any thing doing; and it is
said there has not been SO little cloth man
ufacturing for the last twenty years, as at
