POOR Bolts AGAIN.

After having appended his affidavit to a
false statement, this person is now DESTROYS OF
escaping the position into which his own mad
ness and folly have thrown him, by declaring
that his oath did mol e.rfend 10 this charge Of
unfair dealing Nth young LightIoot, IN the
case Of Biakey ps. Tyler. His affidavit EVIL
IDENTIFY extended over the whole suhject-mater
of hi, letter. or was intended to cover it. After
the exposition of this subject in the light in
which it has been presented, vel may this man
wish to shrink from the public eye. When II
has become known to the world that after the
facts in the case Of Lightfoot W re promulged,
that Mr.. Tyler was repeatedly elected 10 the
Legislature, with scarcely the loss of a vote,
from the very county in which the case was
tried-when it has been made known that a
Jury of twelve honest men, before whom CIV Ty
fact in the transaction was drawn out, decided
the case in favor Of MIR Tyler-when IT has
transpircd that MIR. Tyler, after the facts were
known, was elected TO Cong ess from the very
district, then twice Governor Of the State, then
twice Senator in Congress and when II is fur.
Their shown that this very man Bolts sustained
him in his political asplratons-slnce these
facts have ran.pired-well may his person wish
TO hide himself from the popular eye. But, as
if to make his folly still more apparent, Mr..
Bolts, in Saturdays Uhig, for the purpose Of
sustaining charge Of moral faint against the
President, has published the note Of drgument Of
Mr.. Leigh, who was the opposite counsel IN the
case, in which Mr.. Leigh makes the point that
the transaction was fraudulent and inadmissble
we presume in ldw. Mr.Leigh was the opposition
counsel in the case, and he was in duy bound
TO urge this argument IN technicoiterms, other
wise there was no possible chance OF succeed
ing in the case. BIT, 10 put this matter at rest,
tomorrow, If it can be found or The next day,
we will publish MIR. Leigh's letter to the public
in respect to the proceedings of he Harrisburg
Cony, ntion, in which &c we do not mistake he
expresses sentiments towards Mr.. Tyler entire
" at variance with the idea tEat Mr.. Tyler had
been guilty Of an act of dishonor.

COMMERCIAL TREATIES.

No subject of great national importance, mas
auracted more general attention, or ehclted
more solieilude among The intelligent aud thrifty
classes of our citizens, IN so short space oil
time. tha, we remember, as that OF the proposed
Commercial Treaties, which has been recently
apitated by some of the great men of our coun-
try.
The object of such treaties, if we understand
il correctly, is worthy of the greatest statesmen,
not only of America, but of the civilized world
IL, by means of such treaties, the productions OF
every quarter of the globe should be reciprocal
" interchanged on the great principles OF FREE
TRADE or, when, in cases OF necessary reser-
yations, (and of course duties would have to be
laid TO furnish sufficient revenue for The respec-
tive governments,) equivalents 10 be granted Of
an amcable aud counterbalancing nlture--ii
such a contamination can be effected, we re-
peat it is altogether worthy OF the most com
prehensiye minds and patriotic hearts in the
land
Should such treaties be formed between the
Government of the United States and the Other
governments Of the world, and especially with
Great Britain the Agricultural interest OF Anne
RIGA would be more advanced in one year than
il might otherwise be in a half century. Land
and labor, and the products of the soil, would
instantly advance in price. For these proposed
Commercial TT, alies, il is stated, would open
the ports OF Europe, where excessive duties now
exclude them, to all the surplus products OF our
farmers. Nor would they prove less advanta-
geous TO the Manufacturing interest: for the
arrangement embraced in the proposition, res
pecting all the articles manufactured in our
country, by being permanently establi he'd,
would, we are assured on the best authority, be
highly satisfactory to all the Manufacturers of
the North, as well as to the Planters of the
South.
As 10 the fact of all interests having suffered
long and immensely from temporary, tickle,
party legislation in respect 10 Tariffs and Com
merce we think there can be no diversity OF
opinion. Hence, if some advantageous system
of interchange with other nations, can be sug-
gesled, without regard to mere party interests,
we pledge ourselves to advocate II to The utmost
Of our ability.
If other governments, and especially Great
BRIAN, should send hiiher their best statesmen
10 negotiate on the subject with the like states
men on the part Of our Government, represent
ing different sections, interests and parties, then
the People might reasonably anticipate some
thing far more valuable from such conferences,
than is generally realized from the deliberations
of Congressional caucuses, or even ordinary
Presidential victories at the pills.

sR IL observe in the speech of Mr.. Webster at

bns and republished IN the Nodisonan Of yesterday,
among several minor inaccuracies, a more rem,rka-
bic error. He is reported as having said that Bre
men vessels have the privilege of "tpking our pro-
ducts from port 10 port Of the United States begin
ming at the Passam quoddy and terminal ng at the
Sabine, II they choose This is not the fact, nor
ras IL 50 stated by M. Webster, and the mistake, al
though committed by the reporter should be cor
rected.
Any one conversant with the regulations of
commerce must be aware that the privilege
Of the coasting trade (that is, Of carrying do
nestle produce, or foreign produce once landed) be-
tween home ports, is, in all reciprocity treaties,
reserved by each Of the contracting parties to
their own vessels solely. The remark of Mr..
Webster, thus misinterpreted, was, in sub
stance, that Bremen vessels are allowed the
range Of our fifteen hundred miles Of coast, and
the choice OF the rious markets from the Passama
quoddy to the Sabine, wherein to discharge their
cargoes Of foreign products or TO load for any part
Of the world, while the only equivalent for this
lberahy, secured by treaty is, that vessels Of the
United States discharge or load in one or both Of
the two Hanseatic ports-Bremen and Hamburg
there being little commerce between the third
