consequent on our new Protective Tariff TO its
wailings on this head we reply:
1. For every spindle OF loom stopped in Great
Britain or elsewhere BY our Tariff one is set in
motion here Now we have no objection TO Civ
ing employment TO British Laborcrs it our own
were well employed, well paid and we'll fed. But
such is notoriously not the fact. We have thou
sands of honest, capable deserving worlsmen and
women who have even yet no employment, although
the Tariff has set To work two bundled thousand
who but for it would BOW be furnishing in con-
strained idlcness. FIVE wish to be charitable to
other Nations in this respect, must first SO ad-
Just our policy as TO give ample and advantageous
employment to all our own people, and then we
shall be able TO buy literally from others and will
buy Of their products.

pets, &c. here than 10 haze them made an Eng
land, no matter what the relative money price may
be. 1t will take no more men to weave our Car
pets, Cloths, &C. here than in Ensland, while here
it will be far easier for to feed and pay them.
There were lately thousands OF men manufacturing
for the American market in Europe whose who'll
recempense therefor did not amount to peck Of
wheat for days labor, (nauy worked for less
than half peck.) Under a good Protective Ia
rg, these men will be attracted here to do this
same work, and will here receive from half
bushel 10 bushel and half of wheat for every
days labor, because our prices of labor, under
steady Tariff, will command so much. Here these
lsborers and their families receive not merely bread
enough to keep the breath Of life in their bodies,
bat good clothing, houses, schooling, &c. for the
labor with share in the enjoyments and COM
forts of life At the same time we shall get our
Cloths, &C. cheaper than betore--possibly not for
fewer dollars, but for less produce, because the
cost OF transporting and shipping it to another
continent will be saved, and divided between the
producers of Cloths and Food respectively. Then
our Fruits, Vegetables, &c. sc. which our Farm
ers can now hardly sell at any price, aud our Eng
lish cloth-makers cannot afford to eat, will bear
good price, finding ready market with our man.

them. Protection to American Manufactures is
thus the cause OF universal benehcence. 1t bene-
fits directly our own people, and ultimately those
whe now manufacture for US i'll foreign Countries,
though these may for time suffer inconvenience
from it, while the gradual transfer of Manutac-
lures from Europe to this Country is in progress
The British Landc,l Aristocracy, Church Estab-
hshmeut and other nou-produccrs may suffer some
diminution of incomes from this policy but not

amid some remarkably rich barney, written IN
rather better English than he usually musters, he

deemed proper for the public eye till now
