much OF our space TO the dissemination O
facts, as connected with the policy of Ia
rid These facts have established the fol
lowing truths, viz
FIRST. Without an adequate Tariff. b,
which TO create Revenue, the Govern
nent will have 10 be supported by a III
RECT TAI from tho POCKETS OF
THE PEOPLE. What this amount would
be for Indiana, we have shown 10 anoth.
er column.
Secondly. Without an adequate Tariff,
the goods OF Europe, broUgh, here as they
will be, free Of duty, will be sold freely
As British Restrictions prevent the sale OF
our products ~ their markets, the sale here
Of foreign goods viii create a foreign deb.
against Us, thus bringing back the past.-
And we have demonstrated, from official
documents, that, IN ticsnty one years, there
was balance ct trade against this country
and m favor OF Europe, of TWO HUN.
DRIED AND FORTY-S SEVEN MIL
LIONS OF DOLLARS"
Thirdly. We have demonstrated that
this large balance OF Foreign Trade must
be paid 10 SPECIE; for the reason that we
have no paper currency, which will be re-
celved 10 Earope. And We have also shown
that this specie must be taken from the
POCKETS OF THE PEOPLE because
the merchants vino sell them goods, will
sell them Just so much higher as specie is
worth more than the paper which the PEG.
pie pay them Tor their goods and they will
do this tor tie reason that the merchants
are compelled TO make their payments IN
such funds (Which is specie) as will pass in
Europe.
Fourth. Without such system of Ia
ritf as vii prevent the wares Of Europe
from sale here free of duty; without such
Tariff as will tax those wares abundant
iyi that the result must be TO beggar The !
poor Labofers and Mechanics OF our coun
try Because IN Europe much Of the la. /
Dor Is Pauper labor, and this starving labor
IS employed in The manufacture of hats,
boots, cloths, shoes, trunks, saddles. paper,
DC, &c, &c, which are also manufaclur.
ed here, and which give to thousands Of
poor men and women The means Of life
Take as 40 instance The FORTY THOU. f
SAND FEMALES engaged 10 manufacto.
sies 10 the single State Of Massachusetts
or the SEVENTEEN THOUSAND {
"ORh WEN engaged IN the single busl.
ness OF the Iron Works 10 the State of ,
Pennsylvania and The EIGHTY. FOUR 4
PERSONS dependant upon o
hen for support. Ii there be no law to h
prevent The tree sale OF European goods J
lere, The paoPer labor Of that country, EN- q
'Ioyed IN the manufacture Of such goods !,
must thas compete With, and begear our b,
