A WORD FROM THOMAS JEFFERsoN.-
ave have experienced what We did not
believe, that there does exist both profit
gacy and power enough to exclude us
from the field Of interchange with foreign
nations. That to be independent for the
comforts of Ife we must fabricate them
ourselves. We must now place the man-
ulacturer by the side Of the agriculturist.
The grand inquiry now is, shall we make
our own comforts, or 60 without them at
the will OF foreign nation He, there.
fore, who is now against domestic manu-
features must be for reducing US either to
dependence on that foreign nation, or be
clothed in skins, and to live like wild
beasts in dens and caverns. am not
one OF these. Experience has taught
me that manufactures are now as necessa.

Il was not until yesterday that he was in

from his anxiety to have a correct copy
ready in season.
So many Of his kind friends had been
engaged in assisting him in the prepare
lion Of the copy, that the omissions ofsev.
