The foregoing observations Of Mr. Walsh will
prove to our ADAMS men. thai they not the ex
elusive friends Of manufactures that they pretend
TO be. We venture to believe that those OF them
here who have become suddenly converted to he
popular faith, do NOT helieve inch beyond the
Philadelphia resolutions. 4 has been often mat
Yer Of regret to US, to hear men, who but lew
years, nay months, since, inveighed so hardly a.
gainst the manufacturing system, be now so violent
in rs favor, because have observed that in these
very sudden conversions when the hear, is not chan
ged, the reaction which always follows, is violent
and ungovernabe. For this reason, we fear, that
when their political designs are destroyed, as they
vii! be, instead OF being the real friends Of real
e'Americsn System" we shall end them newly en-.
amoured with Commerce, and perhaps stronger in
their second than in their frs, love.
The general bcralny of MIR. Walsh presents
him to the editorial corps, example worthy Of i'm
'salon, as does his learning, Tor emulation.
