The great mass ol our people have no interest
ul heart bet thc welfare of our common coun.
try and the pcrpcluity of her Democratic in.
suluiuns. / ask thc leaders Of that party
why 10 is, that situated as we are in the best
latitude aud climate for almost every species
of product known TO the civilized world, that
SO small portion OF our fertile land Is "a cal
iyatoul Why is not our uuduIatiug lands IN
Tobacco, and our valleys in Wheat, Rice,
Hemp and Coml Because wc have no market
II we raise Tobacco and export it to England,
there IS duty on il in the raw material ol ~
cents per lb; if manufactured, - 10 per ID.
In France Spain and Portugal tits prohibit
ed; if we cultivate the other products 1t is
worse If possible. The consequence is, we
have no inducemcnt If our hills were cover
ed with shops and manufacturing machinery
our creeks lined with Taunerys and FIGURING
mills-aII in busy operation, would not our
affairs and country wear different aspect
| Would not industry and economy meet It's
| Just reward, and every species OF product com
mand fair price and home marken Then
our Cotton-the surplus sent to a foreign mar
ket would return among us IN gold and silver,
that each could pay bis neighbor if any bal
lance should remain between them, instead OF
returning in the manufactures OF the pauper
population of England. Instead of this, or
some similar plan for our welfare, their hearts
desire seems to be, to gull our citizens INTO the
! belief that it is just to repudiate Honesty IN
every shape, and that they should be Subter-
ranean Locoiocos because Jefferson and jack
son were opposed to iudicious Tariff. But
! these Apostles of Democracy will speak tor
themselves | find in Jelferson's Report to
Congress, whilst Secretary of State during
the administration Of Gen. Washington, the
following passage penned with the advice and
consent of Washington himself;
Should any Nation, says he, contrary to
our wishes, continue its system OF prohlbI-
tons and duties, it behooVes us TO protect our
Ictizens, their commerce and navigation, by
counter prohibitions and duties also. Free
commerce and navigation, he continues, are
not to be given in exchange for restrictions
and vexations, nor, says he, are they likely
to produce Il relaxation OF them.
Those who will look into the political hlsto-
nv of the past few years, will hnd that In
Indiana and many other States, that General
Jackson was supported in 1928 by the De-
mocracy of those States, because he was then
the uncompromsing friend OF a PrOtectlce
Tariff; in fact all the arguments adduced by
himself and friends was that he was the great
champion Of a Protective Tariff and Domestic
Manufactures For the manifest truthoi this
fact, let the old General and Hero OF Democ-
racy speak himself. His memorable Letter to
Mr.. Coleman, of North Carolina, OF that time
speaking of iudiciouS Tariff such as the
Wings Of this day advocate, | find the follow
ing passage: ..,
1t possesses, says he, more fanciful than real
danger | will ask what is the real situation
of the agriculturist? Where has the Amerl-
can farmer a market for his surplus produce!
, Except for cotton, he has neither lorelgn OF
: home market Does not this clearly prove
f there is too much labor employed in agricul'
ture, and that the channels ol labor should be
muliinIied? Common sense points out the
f remedy. Draw from agriculture tins supera
bnndant labor; employ it in mechanism anc
! manufactures, thereby creating home mar
! ket for your breadstufiS, and benefits TO the
| country will be the result.
How different is the language of the Loco
, focos of the present day With more sophis
trv and deception than the old Serpent use'
, to tempt our mother Eve from the Garden o
Paradise. they tell us they are Democrats o
the Jefferson and Jackson school, and thu
! ntter their foul SANDERS of the living and tn
Dead. We find by the Reports to Congress
in 1886. our imports from England alone wa
