lures Of tho Government GEN. Jackson has uniformly
expressed himself in favor Of tdeious Tariff, and such
m his trends every where DESTROYS OF seeing IN
operaton-oue that shall bear equally all classes and
sections of the community, and which shall operate
equal protection the farmer, the mechanic, the manuac
and the merchants and which shall not operate
upon the many for the benefit Of the few boun
for the encouragement of smuggling and frauds upon the
house Norcpubcan friend OF Cen Jackon wishes
- the present tariff repealed they only ask TO have il
modified in such a secure 10 the country
competent for tho support of government 10 pro-
tect manufactures against foreign competition, and TO
operate equally upon all our citizens For ourselves and
wo believe that sentiments upon the subject in
accordance with the sentiments Of the democrats Of New
Hampshire whilst we do not recognise the constitutional
right of the general government 10 assess taxes er-
rre;sly and solely for purposes of protection, be-
hevo IL has right TO frame tho tariff as, whilst
"
vornmcn, II may operate 10 protect our own manu-
hctures and produce against foreign competition. The
government has now the means at its disposal to dis
charge the whole Of the public debit and when the
public debt ~ discharged II will require only about
twelve thirteen millions of dollars pay all the
expenses Of carrying the government, whereas the
revenue amounts TO about twice that sum. 1t is e,1.
dent therefore, that the public revenues should be
reduced TO relieve the people of twelve or thirteen
millions oftaxes which they are now paying This may
DO done by reducing the tariff FIRST upon such articles
arc not the produce manufacture OF this counrynex
l..
and that DO not sufficient moderate reduction should be
made upon such articles as able wholly produce,
retaining the highest tariff upon those which require
protection In this way it Is believed, sufficient rcduc
non may be effected mako the public taxes meet the
public expenditures, without injury any and that is OBJ
vousy all that the interest Of the country requires and
all that the government has constitutional right 10
Such views of what would constitute JUL
etous Tariff and such we believe the views OF the
democrats of New Hampshire
The Opposition, until recently have boon opposed any
modification of the Tariff whichever They tlyo been IL,
favor of keeping up high tariff upon al articles whether
the growth manufacture of this country not, for le
purpose 81 having revenue to build roads ao canals Sc.

o but the doctrine having been found too unpaatablc for
the people OF the East, New Hampshire Clay
comfy abandoned that ground and resolved, that reiue-
tton entire repeal Of The duties upon articles nat the
produce or manufacture Of Ibis country ought to tate
place. This taking step upon democratic ground;
thus far they have adopted the views of the democratic
party; and they have only TO take step more in order
give up the whole OF Mr.. Gays American System. The
Wcollcn Manufacturers in Massachusetts, and New
Hampshire, have for tho last year been diviirg from
twelve onty per cent upon their inve I'm ,nis
