When our political Independence was
achieved. the necessity Of lhro~ ing of The
commercial bonJsgs in which we had
been sr,iuIly ieiiersd Was perceived at
once, AMI The duty Of the Government 10
proiec, our home industry was recognized
az one ol the most in poItani Of all obliga-
tinns. The frsI general ac, Of The fret

subject was moved al the EARLIEST oppor-
iunl,y by Mr. Madison. and The act az
signed by President Washington. the
Fourth Of July. 1859.
IL is remsrksble that al this day. efforts
are made in our o~n country 10 over
threw the Whale system Of projection 10
American Industry, the foundation Of
which We have Quoted. English ~rirers
are but seeking 10 promote their national
interests BY urging The ssme thing under
the captivating name Of Free Trade. bu, !
that . portion Of our own cilIzens should
be deceived by their ieasonings is lille
strange. TO say The least. The blessings
Of Colonial dependence are not SO Lesna-
BILE as 10 make US anxious TO return to

in our resources, wlierewlth Nature has
favored us richly. the mos, substantial
and abundant materials for the foundation !

tile best OF guarantees for our own pros.
perily. II is no presumptuous 'eIf con.
fidence that tells Us 10 rely upon our.
selves and Ia draw The elements Of true
al independence from wihIn our
selves.
The following conclusions, hich we
lind summed up in an enchsnge paper.
are believed to be fairly derived from OBJ
servatIon, experience end reason:
l. That no ns'ion has ever become
powerful. rich. orrealiy inde
pendent. hot BY The protection OF its own
nan ufactures aud produst ions.
2. That .uch has been The policy Of
England, Of oil The gte,t states of the
world. and such the established practice

he Pits. the IIsmI!tnns, the J.ffrrsons,
md all the other gres, Statesmen.
TIA, such has been the policy Of
he Unued States from their origin as q
laton 20 1888.
4. Tha. the manu- cures Of The country
rave been created and developed by The
arifT. and ths, ,h'y are nov sbundsn,
ources of national wealth.
5. That in the progress Of our manu.
ac!u'es, the com grower Of tie west. the ,
o,,on planter 81 the south, and all the se-
Interests, have been greatly be-
'tfitted by the opening Of a domestic mar. !

6. That the CHA ges pref. rred against
