"The colors that float at the mast

lou ask my opinion Of the-meriis OF
HENRY CLAY, and his policy for the
Protection of American Industry and
manufactures. These are questions
which feel some delicacy about answer
ing, first because Mr. Clay is now can
didate for the Presidency, and secondly
never yet fully understood 10 what
ends his policy extends; and although
will advise you Of my opinions relative
to the questions you put 10 me, must
beg that you will not at this juncture give
my words TO the-public through the
press. AS for Mr. Clay, consider him
to be one Of the most talented and bril-
liant men and statesmen that the coun-
try ever produced; and, should live
many years longer, | HOPE TO SEE
HIM HOLD THE PLACE OF CHIEF
EXECUTIVEOF THE AMERICAN
REPUBLIC! His career thus far in
life has been a career ofglorv, and he
has achieved that for his country while
engaged in his career, which would or
nament the brightest place in theescutch
con OF the most favored statesman ofany
age or nation!
say this much in reply TO your IN
terrogatorles; but, as said before, do
rot wish to have my remarks given to
the press, for the simple reason that this
country is involved in political excite
ment in which am not disposed to take
part, as | have long since resolved not
to take part in the politics of the times.
My wrist, which is quite lame, ad-
monishes me TO discontinue this hastv
note. With assurances ofIhe most per
feet respect, | am your obliged fellow cit

DEAR SIR - have received your let
ter of the l4lh of this month, and at the
same time, was delivered me by Capt.
Barlow, piece Of domestic fabric called
negro cloth, containing "a yards, for my
acceptance and inspection | thank you
for the kind and very fattering expires
slons contained in your letter, and for
the handsome present Of he cloth.
should be happy TO return you something
more solid than empty thanks.
You ask my opinion of the American
System. Relative TO that somewhat alb
sorbing question, should hope the achole
l.1 my past life and policy had giUen a
satisfactory reply. ] have always been
of opinion that the people Of this nation
should manufacture ALL the fabrics that
their exigencles demand, if they can do
so-and that they CAN do so, without
applying to the workshops of England,
France and Germany, who will doubt?
Cotton and Woolen we make In rare a.
bundance, and Of a quality quite good
enough to-answer all our wants and de-
niands. Why then should we travel to
Europe for our supplies? For our Silks
and fine Linen we must for some time
to- come go 10 the workshops of Europe; !;
bat ! apprehend the day is not far dis
tant when even they will be manufactur-
ed by NATIVE INDUSTRY.
