70 ,o,Iow;no resolutions we're unanimously
9@i r,s1oi-sa That the Home League view with
,.. r,gret the attempt By partial and Unfair state
-. and false differences to prejudice the public
Ind against the association, and prevent that
wholesome influence which It ought TO produce
hat the ens,h and, breadth Of IL doctrines extend
,nIy to q The protection Of Home Labor and the
promotion Of Reciprocal Commerce.
Resoivea, Tha, the doctrines avowed by the
Convention, do not warrant the chatges alleged
against it, viz. that it is q High Tariff Concern,
cot up BY the manufacturers for selfish purposes.
So far from this the manufacturers have taken less
interest both in the Convention and the Home
League than any oher cass-that they tne
east sufferers by the calamitie- brough; upon the
country by the Abandonment of the policy OF Pro-
ection and the ruinous extension Of the duty-tIee
.ystem-ana the consequent balance OF trade
,gain-t u th4, has grown out Of it.
ReSoired, That 1t is not and never was the de-
sign of the Home League TO enrich IN nanuiac-
turers the expense Of any other class. but mutu-
ally 10 benefit each and all, and thai Tariff ad
lscd on the princip pies OF common sense, and Il;
lie same TINE WIN view 10 revenue, |. not, a.
mas b-en untruly said, opposed to the interests oi
he American Laborcr or Consumer, the Merchant
n armer, but highly for their interest.
Ecsofced, That when he examination OF the
cost OF tire material aud the value OF the labor ne
-essary for ii production Of given article, It
shall be apparent that by the aid Of skill and eX-
perience witt in rea>onabe time, it be afford
I'd 10 the consumer cheap "a The imported arti-
clc that then 1t is rnsnesly our interest to extend
1rot-ction to such Giles and that ordinary indus
try and discrimination in the investigation will be
Efficient to Distinguish those ARTICLES.
Resoloed, That The HON League claim, affinity
10 no IF the political parties OF the day, as it !,
made up Of American citizens native AVID adopcd
II all parties ready to cspou.e the great interests
Of the country; and that all attempts OF party p.-
tcians to involve it in partisan politics will be
rowned upon by all its members.
Resolced, That the attacks upon the Home
League from certain journals well known to be
nader the intucace OF foreign agents was TO have
been ex pecied but these attacks IN the sequel are
calculated to do good, they lead to scussions
which Will inevitably cOnduce to better under
standing Of the subject, and in the end truth must
Jrevail.
RcsOiced, That the wide-s pread ruin produced
5y the change of the policy Of the Government,
which the las, process OF reduction OF the Tariff
without any discrimination in the amount OF du-
les articles whether they require 1t mol, mus'
,lg .e the industrious and laboring classes inte de-
and, tie vigilant attention of all VINO wish
the prosperity of the Country. Much will depend
upon the Country FresS, fortunately beyond the
reach OF that foreign influence which in our COM
neicia! cities is insldiousy and Systematically EN-
,uyed ia the aid oi Foreign Industry to tn. sacrl-
ice of Home Industry. We therefore invoke the
,alutary influence OF tie Country Press against this
lnholy warfare on the Productive Labor of the
Country.
ReS0iocd. That the principles advocated by the
Home League, are the principles adopted by
NAsnISGroN. fRANKLIN, HAMILTON, JErrERsoN.
MADISON and host of other friends OF tho Con-
,,itution, as best calculated to prom Nationa!
Wealth and permanent independence.
RcSolccG, That the Protection of Home Labor
is essen i 10 Sound Currency that so long as
Bank paper is the medium of exchange, and based
IN metallic money, all our business transactions
md the value Of our property with the price OF
Labor will be regulated by ii, and so long as w.
ire exposed to the iluctuang Influences which the
,urplus pauPer productions OF Europe thrown IN
ipon US duiy-lree, and without reciprocity are
liable to produce in the balance OF trade. we must
II necessarily subject TO continual painful flnctua-
ions occasionally producing wild, spread and run-
,us Bankruptcies.
HCSOfcCN,
LENDS of Home Industry ia every section of the
ouniry to call public meetings, form Town and
coun;y Associations, correspond with this League
md disseminate information. until this momen-
GUS subject is understood and obtains the con-
liberation It's magnitude demands
Resoiced That the State Leagues meet
weekly in this city until the objects for which it
yas formed be attained, asd that American citi-
lens OF all parties be invited to attend and con-
ribute their influence and bear witness TO the
.incerty of our views and efforts.
G The Wings of lLLtSoIs have decided not
% hold Convention to nominate State Officers,
IS, on comparison of views, it IS found that they
are all fer Gen. Jo,EPH DuNcAN for Governor.
There is some disagreement yet with regard to
Lieutenant Governor, but it is believed that all
will be harmonzed without Convention.
