y important matter taken up by so useful and perse

been long and shamefuly neglected. Ii is impossible
for the mind to carry all the advantages that would
accrue to this great country and particularly to the
city of New FORK, by the encouragement of domes-
tie manufactures. Let any one look at our files for
last October and November, containing the statistics
of foreign and domestic manufactures Let our think.

amount Of money paid TO England annually for hard
ware goods, (of which Mr. d. treats particularly and
ingeniousy in his letter. and then say if we ought
not by every means in eur power at any and every
sacrifice, to encourage domestic manufactures. 1t is
topic on which the most eloquent might grow yet
more eloquent--it is theme worthy the serious at
tcntion and support Of the philan,hropst, the Chris
