FOR THE WArcHMAH.
THE PRESIDENTIAL QUESTION


From the recent transactions 10 Congress, and
elsewhere, among the opposition, it appears that
they Intend to make the Presidential Question turn
on the powers Of the General Government, with
respect to Internal improvement, and the encour-
sgement Of Domestic Manufactures, and the Amer.
ican or Home System.
The opposition, it appears, are forming COM
binations," not only to oppose the present Admin
istraiion right or wrong, and elect Gen. Jackson
president, it possible. but to oppose Internal I'm
provement; oppose Domestic Manufactures and
the American System, and, in fact, while their
avowed object is to elect General Jackson president.
their real object Isl or its tendency will be, to
retard the strides Of this nouiishing Republic. to
wehlth and prospefity--to make us dependent
instead Of an independent nation. Al proof Of
these facts, look at the late votes on these great
national questions in Congsess:- with few excep-
lions the opposition have voted agsint them.
But look nearer home. Our Representative.
who heretofore has upheld and supported Domes-
tic Manufactures, and who was supported, and elect
ed at the last election, principally on the ground Of
his being the tried and faithful friend OF our Man
ufactures, has now deserted his post, and in his
votes on the " Woolen 3ill'' has drawn aside the
mask, and We now see him, as he really 10, opposed
to the american System. He has turned traitor to
his best friends, who fervcnty supported his last
election. We see that Mr.. Hsrker. who always
ollOWd III MS wake, Hdb Cnankcu 8iuSb AHu
now opposing Domestic Manufacturer which he
formerly advocated What does oil this mean ?
Are the public blind, not 10 these Inconsistencies
They do, and will them, and will act as It be
comes lreemen and Americans.
Will not these facts have some influence on the
people of Delaware. Pennsylvania, New York, and
elsewherei Will the people of Pennsylvania, who
are so deeply interested in manufactures, support
men who disregard her interests? Will she sup
port Presidential candidate whose line Of policy
will be opposed to her best nterestsf Tho inde-
pendent freemen Of ihs, great State can answer the
question Although they esteem Gen. Jackson,
for his military services, will they sacrifice their
best interests 10 the mani Il is not probable. -
When they called on TO choose electors for
President. they will doubt inquire, whether
Gen. Jackson, who they wish we'll, and esteem as
great man. will support the .anerican System Il
they satisfied he will not, they most sssuredly
will not support him. They cannot. And further
can the friends OF American Manufactures in Del
/ aware, who supported Mr.. Mclane on ths ground
Of his devotion to the manufacturing interest," follow
him, when he has deserted his former principles
We no doubt shall see to the contrary. II ne 10 in
consistent, his talents and dazzling influence, will
not make them 80. II they are consistent with
themselves they surely will be opposed to the course
he has lately pursued.

been opposed to Domestic Msnufact urss.

8. The bill for converting portion ofthe six per
cent. debt, into debt bearing an interest OF fve
per cent which passed the House of Representa-
tives was lost in the Senate. BY the failure to pass
bill last year, in consequence Of The now acknowl
edged error Of Mr.. LOUIS McLANE, the country
lost about ninety thousand dollars. BY the failure
of the Senate to pass this bill it loses like sum.
q. The Colonial bill was lost by the refusal Of the
Senate to agree to an amendment Of the House Of
Representatives, without which the measure would
have humilined this country. And now Great Brit
ain is left in possession of the monopoly OF the nav
igation concerned 10 the intercourse, unless the
President feels himself authorized to close ports
under the act OF March, 1925.

ed by the Senate in the above instances, the people

turned to its former anchorage
The Captain states that Commodore Porter hat
