States during the year, it is impossible tC speak wilh exaeineSs; but, from indications that cannot deceive, it is evident that it !: large; so large, that the amount export. ed, would sink to a level below all compar- isOn with it. The surest guide to our be- lief, under this head, is, that m those branches which have at length been ena- bled, through a provident legislation to stand up against the overwhelming com pefition of preestablishcd excellence and capital from abroad, which must otherwise have kept down forever their flrst attempts the article, can now be had cheaper m price, as well as better in quality, than the same article, from abroad, as 1t was seen in our market prior to the efficient protec- tion afforded to our own. Hence the ap- prehensions of the monopoly, pass away. Hence, the certainty that competition at home will bring down prices, eventually, if not immediately, whilst it creates and diffuses new wealth at home labor being the foundation ofwealth, and producing and disseminating it more universally and in higher degrees, in proportion as it exists under diversified forms and in full activity. It is then that the farmer, the artizan and the merchant, give support to each other, each enlarging the occupation and the gain of each. The State, meanwhile, reaping the fruits in fiscal prosperity and political power. As regards the cotton manufacto- ries of the country, there are grounds for supposing that they now make a call for full one fourth part of all the raw cotton grown in the United States. It is gratify- ing to add, that those parts of the United States, where manufacturing establishments, of all kinds, flourish most, exhibit an anima- ted industry, an orderly aspect, and an in- creasing population. Towns and villages are seen rapidly to rise up in such districts, in restoring to which the rural population of the vicinity find ready and profitable sales for the various productions of farm ing, enterprise and labour. It is believed that, as these establishments shall rear themselves up, under adequate encourage ment, in augmented numbers and impor- tance, corresponding activity in trade will become their concomitant in the, same portions of country.
 The great scheme of national advance ment is to be seen in its true component parts in our Union-| arts naturally desti- ned to make up one systematic whole ,where the plough, the loom, and the ship, will each haveit appropriate sphere, in raising to proper elevation, the entire fabric of our social and public prosperity in car rying to the highest attainable pitch, our riches Jour happiness, our power. A poli- cy short of this belongs not to free and in- telligent people, surrounded by the bounty of Providence, with varieties of climates and territory, fostering inclinations and aptitudes in human employments. The foundation of such a policy, once securely laid in that legislative assistance to our without which they must struggle in vain against those of other coun- tries. long and thoroughly established, an advantage not inherent, but adventitious, yet an overpowering advantage :; and as already proved in some articles of national importance, to which we have afforded eff ficent protection,we shall have nothing to fear for the future, Then, and only then, shall we be raised up to level, in this re- spect, with other countries.
