This Is ,ho BOON, should the English Para-
trader in our ports Of British goods. THIS trade
is TO pass through Canada, to pay tho duty
TO the Canadian government instead Of the Fog
Iish government; ,phedt is to be ground at
their nas; The -four is to DO carried by their con
veyances, at Our expense, TO their ports, and then
to DO shipped TO Engsnd in BRITISH VESSELS,
excluding OUR vessels altogether. Such is the
practical view Of free trade in Grea, Britain.
Imports and Exports.
The writer Of the pamphlet has thought proper
TO quote Mr.. Adams to prove that in series Of
years tho imports and exports between this coun-
Try and Great Britain have nearly balanced; this
no introduces as an argument 10 show that it is
not necessary TO protect and foster an American
market for American produce. That proposition,
including bullion and specie, may be admitted for
tho sake Of the argument, without pre- udice TO
our positions. The imports and exPor,s,or trade,
between two countries may balance each year,
md yet tho one npoycrish the other in operation.
They yearly account current is generally baanc-
cd between the master and servant, while the one
rides IN coach and the other is covered with |
rugs; with the landlord and tenant, tho fnrrn>
ef and laborer, the manufacturer and his operas
tors; still one may be enriched and the other I'M
poverished by the terms and mode OF adjusting
and balancing tho account. farmer buys Brit
ish goods of q merchant, for which he agrees to
pay fifty dollars IN produce IN tho fall; the time
for payment arrive, tho farmer calls with his
produce. and is informed that The price of wheat
is ten cents per bushei, six cents, and other
produce in proportion; the payment is made at
these prices, hut the whole years labor of tho
farmer is exhausted: tho merchant has made n
profit On the goods-,he imports from the store,
and the exports from the farm have precisely bal
anced; still the farmer is impoverished. About
GA per cent. of all the exports of this country
to'England is in the article Of cotton. at some
thing like eight cents per pound, while the return
imports consist Of manufactured goods, at from
500 to 5000 per cent. advance on the cost of the
nav materials. THIS advance is the price of
British produce, British labor and the interest Gu
