such measures as to secure to a great
majority ofthem mechanical employment,
by which to earn their support.
Again, is it really true that the nation
al bank of England, operates oppressive
y on the people? One thing is certain;
it secures them a safe, convenient and uni
Usrsa currency. When a man sells his
property or earns wages, he receives his
pay in coin or its faithful representative,
national bank paper,-and he has no fear
of its dying on his hands. He is not
asked to take "store pay" produce or
"bank rags" in liquidation of his debt.
If travelling, he is not "shaved" at the
end of every fifty miles. Brokers, "dea-
lers in uncurrent money" are little need
ed in Great Bcitain. 1t is said that more
of that class of gentry get a fat living in
one of our cities than can be found in
the whole British Realm.
a man can carry enough paper of the
Bank of England in his watch feb to
brinb lin half million of dollars in
liver, in almost any civilized
10. lis wide world, and command
a prc-4Im on its face to boot. And this
paper money does not circulate to the
exclusion Of coin. Capitalists there, are
now, it is said, endeavoring TO loan out
great sums Of specie at 3! per cent. per
annum.-Qucry. Ifthc present system
of trade between our country and Eu-
rope continues, 20 per cent. horizontal
duty OH our side, and from 100 to 1900
per cent. discriminating duty on theirs,
how long will it require t" make gold
and silver so plenty with us that it could
be hired for 81 per cent. Or, might
ask, when will we have enough to serve
as a circulating medium, or ev en- to base
banking operations upon?
A few more words and I I'm done.
You say it matters not for what purpose
the British Tariff is imposed, so that it
brings starvation, death, &c., upon the
operatives of,hat country.
Would It be as unjust and impolitic in
a government to tax its subjects oppres-
sively for the purpose of paying an hon.
ogablc national debt, as to raise money
by the same oppressive taxation, 10 ena-
bic a corrupt Priesthood and titled nobili-
ty to wallow in dissipation and luxury
or To dcfray the expense of an unjust
war, destructive Of the interest of the
beiligcrants?
And now, friend Adams, you have my
views upon the subject in dispute be-
tween us, and my errors I shall be hap
py TO see corrected, by yourself or some
Of your correspondents, through the col
umns Of your useful journal.
