Neyv-Yorker.: Think!

The New- Hampshire Patriot the leading Loco
Foco journal in New England, is clamorins for
repeal of the Protective features of the New Tar
if, and especially the duty SAT-, which it de-
clares to be equal to twelve cents measured
bushe of Rock Salt. II therefore asserts that the
consumer of Salt is taxed twe{ue cents bushel
Tor the benefit of the Government and sir cents u
bushe more for the benefit of Newly ork (by our
Salt excise the 0nondaga Salines,) and that
thus every American consumer of Salt pays duty
of ca hteen cents busheli
Does not every rational man kaov better than
this? If man buys and uses imported Salt how
does he pay any duty 10 the State of Newly ork I
How does he pay one cent more than the foreign
cost and charges with the National duty? If it
costs fifteen cents to import salt, and the duty is
twelve, how would the consumer save eighteen by
repeating the duty
Remember citizens of Newly ork especially
| Of Onondaga, that the triumph of LocoFocoism in
the mex, Congress ensures the repeal of the Sal.
duty, carrying with it the destruction of our Salt
Works and the loss to the State Revenue of
100000 Salt Duties and 100000 called Tolls
