port The present Administration, their acts, not
our will - attack party, must be excuse; and,
in conclusion, we fearlessly AFFIRM that the great
er portion Of our misfortunes arc the result
of cringng sycophancy-begging the votes Of
Iforeign nat,raized Amaericans--courting foreign
notice, and fishing for foreign notions and pro-
ductons-neglecting our own mechanics and
manufacturers. and protecting foreign manufac-
nres instead of our own--and the whole salled
down with the piques of partnership, the pun

Let our country then, no longer be thrown open
to foreign manufactures or immigration, without
securing our interest in the one, and restricting

receptacle for the dregs of the old world. Then
and not till then, can we look forward for that
prosperity which our own exerions only can in
sure. And may we, at the return of the Ami
versary of our National Liberty, be able to hail
each other as united brethren, and our country
presenting the blessings which our forefalhers so
nobly contended for-Libcrfy and Prosperity.

London the second week in June. The '..friend

long TRADE of abusive epthes against the Anne
