tuB tO Wttness me prosperity we ATe now eA- periencing under 1t. Here we have nothing; to fear from dense population, and land isr here so cheap, there is no danger of oppresS sion to our manufactures. With arenments' like these, we were proceeding, hoping to- convince our friend of the efficacy of our sys- tenn, when with smile, he told us he en- tirely agreed with US in opinion; and al-, though he had long resided in England, pur- chasing English goods, he had given it up and: now resided in the western country, was a farmer, and had sheep of SaxOny and MerinO breeds That hc had just returned from visit to the hills of New Hampshire, and had pass ed through that State and the other manu- featuring States of New England, had witt messed their prosperity; and, continued he, we of the West know well the beneficial ef- fects of the protecting system. We glory in it; it has trehled the steam navigation of our western waters, it sustains our canals and rail- roads, and nnloads the rich treasures from our mines, while 1t gives us a steady market for the produce ofOur fields and forests. So, you see, also understand something of it. I like that idea of yours. he adf6itaay ttat tan American heart" is the ground work of the system tO me it is new, and l should like to see it published.
 remember how we felt when in Europe together, we heard that Commodore Huh had taken the Guerrier; just so I feel about our system, and there can be no doubt it springs from love of country, that deeply seated principle ofthe human mind, and, said he, the !" free trade," of which SO much is said. soe know well is nonsense; for in every country laws are made to favor particularly their own industry. and SO will they always be. while the principle 10 which you have al- luded exists; and that if VI III ever last there s,a,, ,1an Ao,,hk E;rA:rn. r.n. on the subject, the conversation gradually fell into another train. Thus. we comply with the wishes of our friend in recording the idea ttatthe " American. Sys;eEn," has it's ground work in the existence of the love of country, or in other words in that desire to see the United States succeed more than any other nation, so that he who feels it may be said to have an American heart, which is not the case with many, who looking falsely as wo conceive) only to self interest. care not what shall become of the country, so that they can add to .heir gain, which they worship
