"a HOME MARKETS

Amos Kendall, in an article upon the
wing fillacies about home market, asks
"Has the building up af Lowell of Nashua
increased the prices of the farmers wheat or
corn in Ohio, Indiana or Illinois? Every
man knows better Has it increased the pri-
Cos of the farmers corn and rye raised in the
pery ncighborhood? Every farmer fifty years
cd who lives there, knows better.
He knows that their prices, thirty or forty
Y ar ago, were higher thin they are now.
Sos hem and Western corn and flour have
been broSght by means of these manufac-
turing establishments, into competition with
those of the New England farmer at his own
door, reducing prices there nithom incrcas-
ing them in the regions whence the new
supplies come. These are notorious facts
the strongest ofarguments. TO think of
increasing the prices of Western produce by
bIilding up manufactures, and thus increas-
ing the number of domestic consumers is as
idle as TO think of affecting the volume of
the Miss ssippi above or below by throwing
the water over the leyce at New Orleans with
bucket. The production ofthlt teeming re-
gion is too vast to be affected by an opera
non so minute. The Mississippi must have
al ocean to receive the waters of its innu-
mcrable fountains, and a tcorld for mar
ket. To create ii home market for its pro-
duction in England or elsewhere bv legisla-
ton, is Just about as mdicrous an operation
as digging home reservoir to receive the
waters of its mighty rivers. As man OF

1--WE have only TO say in reference TO the

SINGULAR OCCURRENCE.-One OF our
Oldest and most learned divnes on Sunday
morning suffered a temporary and rather
serious absence of mind; bat before the
hour of morning service arrived, was sup
posed to have entirely recovered and went
to his church to perform the duty Of his call
ing. He proceeded regularly with the SER
vice of the day, and preached an extempo-
raneous discourse which was declared by
many who heard it, TO be one of the most
eloquent, perspicuous and argumentive
sermons they had ever listened to.
After the Clergyman arrived home ii
was noticed that his mind was again wan.
dering and proper medical treatment was
again resor,ed TO and he has since in a
great measure recovered. He states thai
he has not the slightest recollection oil

being at Church, SO that he must have de.

THE TELEGRAPH,
SOUTHPORT, TUESDAY, OCT. 8, I543

As large as is the majority for the Demo-
cratic ticket in this county we find no diff
Guilty in accounting for the result We firm
ly believe that it is owing alone TO the strength
of the Democratic principle with the people,
for if ever contest was conducted in this
county solely on party grounds, it was so con-
Quoted in this instance. Ouropponents took
especial pains for once, to spread their prin-
ciples before the people. The Wing address
avowing the attachment of the Wing party
10 protectire tariff, National Bank, &c.
was here written, printed, and most extern
sively circulated. 1t came fully and fairly
before the people; and the Democratic prin-
ciple was we'll known to be the antagonist of
it, The people have spoken and the voice
of Racine has been fairly and emphatically
proclaimed against these measures. 1t might
have been predicted. Can it be possible
that there are body of men among us, who
hope that at any immediate or remote period
the people of these United States will deli
berately take on themselves the yoke of an
other United States Bank. Is the wisdom
acquired by the experience of past suffering
to teach us nothing? 1t is idle tie tell us of
Bank under proper restrictions and proper
ly guarded A Bank under proper restric-
tons will never be established, for the sim
pie reason that the proper restrictions take
away all inducements for the establishment
of the institution The fact is, the great
foundation of Bank, the credit system, in
all its forms and shapes is repudiated by the
people. Drawing his conclusions from his
every day business and experience every man
sees that this system is not the thing for his
well-being, or, as consequence, for the well
being of community. An United States
Bank may be truly said 10 be an obsolete
idea. 1t is far behind the age; indeed so
plain and apparent is the popular opinion on
the subject that if this is to be the leading
question of division in the next Presidential
contest. the result of that contest cannot be
doubtful.
A protective tariff too, is kindred with it,
both in its bearing and its hold upon the at.
fections of the people. Certainly, the indi
vidual who expects to convince our western
farmers that a tariff protecting the manuffc-
turers of the sca-board is for their interest,
must calculate largely on their credulity.
So plain is all its features that with all the
humbug of home markets and home protec-
ton, the truth cannot be hid. We have had
opportunities of ascertaining to a considera-
BILE extent the opinions of our farmers on
this subject, and we are satisfied the result
of the election tells truly their views.
> In our opinion, if the Wings expect to sue
coed here or elsewhere, they have got to
pull up peg Or two. They are falling too
far behind the wisdom of the mass. If Hen
ny Clay embodies their views, we cannot but
think they will find themselves in hopeless
minority when the question comes to be fair
ly tried.
