But viii! examine the policy recommended in
the Enquirer little more seriously. If rightly UNI
it amounts to this--that tho Legislation
of the State ought to DO directed TO tho opening
of avenues of intercourse with the Virginia towns
this corroct?-IIow long since this
luton took place in the opinions of our rcadersl
is there u solitary instance to he found, in which
the interests of agriculture have been sacrificed to
the growth of orr towns and cities? None such
exist, and the Enquirer would not have dared TO
propose such principle IN relation TO the agricu
turc of tho low division of the State. 1t is only
where the transmontanc colonies i'm Qucs-
ton that he ventures to assert the rights of the
metropolis. The example of every Government in
the world, ought TO have taught the Editor of the
Enquirer, if he is not uateachablc, that in the
multiplication of markets, for the agricultural and
manufactured commodities of community, the
best illustration is given OF n wise and parental
in tho rulers. Every augmentation in pro-
duction ncrGa of price obtained bv the ia rmcr
or mechanic, adds precisely that amount to the
wealth of the State. If mercantile profit inter
vcncs, it but lessons the amount which would
otherwise accrue TO tho producer, and leaves it in
the hands Of lcoting whose interests can
never be brought into competition with those OF
the cuitivator of the soil.
These principles arc illustrated in almost every
act of the President of the u S.. the authority of
whose example Mr. II. will scarcely venture to de-
ny. His arrangement Of tho West India Trade
has transferred much the larger part of that
commerce from the American merchants and ship
owners to Canada factors and British bottoms; vet
tho President INDUCES in pleasing reflections on
the advantages which have resulted to agrcul-
tura interests from the state of tho trade between
Canada and tho Territories and States horde ring
the st. Lawrence and the Lakes, which (says he)
may prove more than equivalent to the loss sus-
tanned in the trade, by tho discrimination made to
favor the trade of the Northern Colonies, with the
West Indies" His laborioas, expensive, hut sue
ccsstu effort to open important markets for agr
cultural and manufactured commodities, in Austria
and the dominions CT the Emperor in the South of
Germany, and even in the Ottoman Empire, ought
TO bring blush ofshame MIR. Ritchics checks,
unless indeed he goes upon the old colona! TaE-
I'm, that colonists arc not to engage in any thing
that does not minister to the wealth and strength
of the mother country.
