Dear Sir: my letter of September 18th,
{stated, briefly, the grounds ON Witch /
rested my opinion, that Il power To Impose
duties and restrictions on imports, with a
view to encourage do nestle productions,
was ronstltullonaly lodged in Congress.
in the observations then made was involved
the opinion, also, that the power was property
there lodged. as this last opinion necessa-
rlly implies that there are eases III which
the power MY be usetiuly exercised hy
Congress, the only holy within our poill-
cal system capable of exercising 1t with ei-
feet, you may think it incumbent on me 10
point out cases of that description.
will premise that concur in the Opin-
ion, that, as II general rule, individuals ought
to I've deemed the hest Judges Of the best
application OF their industry and resources.
am ready To admit, also, that there is
no country in which the application may,
with more safety, lie left to the Intelligence
and enterprise Of individuals, than the Uni
ted States.
Finally, | shall not deny, that, in all
doubtful eases, it hecones every Govern
ment to lean rather to n confidence in the
Judgment Of individuals, than TO nterposi.
tons controlling the free exercise of it.
With all these concessions, / think it can
be satisfactorily shown that there are exrep-
tons to the general rule, now expressed 10y
the phrase Let us alone," forming cases
which call for interpositpns Of the compc-
tent authority, and which are not inconsis-
tent with the generality of the Iule.
l. The Theory of Let us alone" sup
poses that all nations concur in II perfect
freedom Of commercial intercourse. Were
this the case, they would, in II commercial
view, lie hut one nation, rs much as the
several districts composing particular ma.

Lift high the curtains dropping fold,

Before its better years begin;
'Tis well that such holy hour,
So calm and pure sinking ray
Should shine into the heart with power
To charm its darker thoughts away.
The bright yonng thoughts of early days,
Shall gather in my memory now
And not the later cares, whose trace
Is stamped 50 deeply on my brow;
What though those days return no more,
The sweet remembrance is not vain,
For heaven is waiting to restore
The childhood of my soul again.
Let m impatient mnurners stand
In hollow sadness near my bed
But let me rest upon the hand
And let me hear the gentle tread
OF her whose kindness long ago,
And still unworn away by years,
Hath made my weary eyel!ds flow
With grateful and adnirlng tears.
