Mr. Smith. oi Virginia, gave a history
Of the creation Of the Committee on M an
ulactures, which no traced back 10 the

argued for the right Of protection, and
insisted that all the Presidents had sus.
tame d this right-nay, had gone beyond
Protection-and p were positively Tor en-.

meslic manufactures.
Mr. Irving continued his argument al
