Another of Consul jarvis Lies,

AT the Consul's Tariff meeting held in this place
last winter, he l,bored hard to show that the in.
terest the Manufacturer and Farmer was linden.
,lca ana to establish the federal doctrine of pro.
tccling the Manufactures, and let them protect the
Farmer.
Does not" said he, 'does not the stone and
the timber the manu!acturs use in his building all
come from the farmers quarrcs, and woodlo,s .-do
not his hands consume the farmers corn, his butter
his cheese, &c' Yes, certainly; then are not

To Consul jarvis this may all look logical and
conclusive. But let US examine it. Suppose u
Manufacturing company shonld erect a splendid
building in Woodstock. A few individuals in the
immediate vicinity would sea few loads of stone
and several other. perhaps little more remote,
would sell few feet of timber. The factory goes
into operation and the farmers are all expect

factory for the interest of the two great classes are
one! They hold their wool in readiness for prof
liable sale-when, 10! one afternoon some half
dozen teams drive up to the factory and unload
bale after bale of foreign wool, which, when i'm
ported into Boston duty free, under the Consul's
favorite Tariff for protecting the farmers, and pur-
chased Tor thirteen cents a pound! Now, il
Consul Jarvis had not said that the interest of the
Farmer is identical with that of the manufacturer,
we should be inclined to say that the establishment
Of the Factory would not be very beneficial to the
farmers Of the county 1t is very true, when the
factory goes into operation, the farmers can find
market for small portion Of their butter and
cheese, provided they will take part or all their
pay in The manufacturers cloth at hswhig protec-
lion prices; but, I'VE do no, believe tina, Consul
Jarvis himself can make the farmers of Vermont
believe that all the protection they want is mar
ket Tor small portion of what butter and cheese
they raise, or That, if the sale of these articles. is
all the protection they are gong to ge,-and il is
by his tariff they will feel satisfied with it, II is
their pool that they expect will be protected
1t is their wool that they wish to sell, and
how lmpudent it is in Consul Jarvis to tell the
farmer, that, by protecting the Manufacturer
granting him Tariff so high that foreign woollens
are excluded from the country, and the whole con-
troll o.. the market given to him, 50 that he can Sc,
his own price on the cloth the farmer has to buy.
while he imports all the wool he has in his estab.
llshment, he Is procuring for himself ample and
Just projections How impudent too, TO tell the
farmer that his interest is under such a wing Tar

As one mode to PUT THE STATE OUT or
DEBT, the Wings have constantly struggled to get
our share of the public lands H'GichmaR.
A more perucious doctrine than this cannot be
bIoachcd in a Republican Government. If carried
out, i, would result in the Iamionan consoli.
dalion 1t is pure unauthorized federalism, maxi
the States mere dependencies upon the General Gov
eminent, instead of Independent and sovereign com
munllles as they were intended TO be by the fran.
ers of the National Constitution.
Under such SYSTEM the States may become ms
eS'ravagani as they please, they may squandcr ro
purposes ever so visionary and foolish, their own
income and plunge themselves in debt, and then
call on the General Government 10 help them ont I,
Nothing on earth can be more anti Republican. In
lew years, lwo-,hirds ofthe States might be hope
lessy involved and the Government, by enJeavor-
ing 10 meet The demands Its sipendaries plunged
in lrretrievable bankruptcy. States like Vermont,
which can only squander her money as she has up
on marble palaces, public printers, and gangs of
idle blood suckers, would see the revenues of the
General Government paid out in millions TO the
Western States, who might rush headIona. into
the mos, Improbable internal improvements, and,
having majority in Congress and being abe to
vote TO themselves as much as they please of the
public money, be obliged TO get themselves GU, of
the mire the best way they could. We repeat,
that, in all its aspects the federal doctrine of
the Watchman is most pcrnicious and we trust
is the only paper in the State which dare breach
or advocate it.
