PROTECTION AND FREE TRADE.

|
The following fine extract is the conclusion Of a
letter of recent date, from Gov DAVIS to the Pres
dent of The Home League a, New York:
| 1t gives great satisfaction TO SEQ other parts
of the country moving, and especially New York,
for it is the business OF the agricultural States
move and support division of labor for this is the
only process by which they can sustain themselves
To talk of Protection to manufactures, under tho
idea that they reaping special benefits, is idle
The policy goes greatly beyond the purpose Of
aiding particular class of persons, for the inquiry
is, shall we in substance be all farmers shall we
divide into various employmens, that wants
may be supplied? irtho farmers feel no need Of
this DIVISION, then let us give ii up, for The mann
facturers and mechanics can live as well by land
as they. have always thought that protection to
manufactures unfortunate misnomer, for il
is labor Of all sorts that we aim to sustain and sup
port-as much one class as another-and let us
hold firmly to that. We go for the great interets
OF labor, and il can take Of that there is
nothing TO fear, for the country will be prosperous
&shappy. Let us the II under name lose light Of
our object, of our identity. We aim at free ,pros
porous labor; while free trade aims at cheap goods
made cheap by cheap labor. In the eye Of free
trade, the suffering, starvation, and utter neglect OF
the laborers, as well as their moral and intellect
ual degradation, are nothing cent a yard in
calico outweighs II their mighty matters, and thus
avarice is left to triumph humanity and moral
iy England asks for free trade just TO the extent
that she wants the markets Of other countries, and
no further. Her position is the opposite OF ours;
her surplus is goods, while is produce. She
wants vent FOR these goods in market, but takes
care that our food shall interfere with her agri-
culture.
The United States are in deplornble condition.
No currency-no confidence and every thing de
pressed, dark and gloomy. The treasury is empty
and the finances distracted, but it is all working
out one great problem, and that is that we must
take care Of ourselves by fostering industry
Opinion is rapidly turning to this the great re
medal measure which is to dispel the clouds which
have gathered around us, and give the bright
sunshine again God speed your efforts. 1 write
in great haste and remain your friend and obi serv

We have repeatedly expressed surprise that
The people of Rhode Island should have bceu con

they did not, long ago, adopt the regular legal

respect-and we felt rClOlccd when saw, some
thing more than year ago, movement in the
General Assembly of that State towards the IRE
