SUPPORT YOUR MECHANICS.

There is scarce any thing which
tends more to tho Improvement Of a
town, than fair and liberal support
Afforded to mechanics Of every descrip.
ton. Population is necessary to the
prosperity Of town or country, end that
population being Of an honest and indus
trious character. renders prosperity
more certain, uniform and unvaryiag.
Scarce any place has risen to much
importance, even when possessed Of
the utmost commercial advantages.
without due regard to the encour-
agement Of the mechanical arts. For
though the expectation OF merchan-
die may form the leading features Of
such a place, the various arts of me-
chanism are invariably called in re-
qui.ition, and are indispensable to
render the progress Of commercial
operations safe and EASY. To an in
land town. mechanics are equally i'm
pOrtant as elsewhere. They cons,i-
tute a large and respectable portion
OF society. in all countries: but in
our towns and villages they are al
most leading constituent part Of their
growth and population. To afford
ample support to a class Of citizens so
highly useful and necessary, is GER
tainly the duty Of those engaged in
other pursuits.
