The N. Y. Evening Express, of Sept.
24ih, in an article Commenting on the
hypocriiical and toriuous course pursued
by the Journal Of Commerce, has the fol-
lowing pointed and conclusive remarks !:
"The Journal of Montay,-we hope
the arlIcle was not written upon the Sab
bmh,--.has two columns To prove that an
effort is not making by the free trade par
" in England to influence the elecIions
IN the United S ates. The Journal bu,
refules ITS own arguments. Appearances
are against il. There is too much cir
cumsiancial evidence in the cnlumns of
the Journal itself to give credit to ITS as
sertisns. The evidence, indeed. would
be but lille more palpable were the edI-
tors to write outside aud inside of their
sheet, in black letters: {" We are far free
trade. because zee are pa3 by foreigners
for our free trade principles +" The jour
hal is compelled 10 admit half what is
said, when il acknowledges that !" for The
current year, the League B'itlsh] de-
mand fl00000. aud It will be- forlhcom-
ing. Ii short. the doctrine. of free trade,
in Tariff aud Priest-ridden England, have
received an impulse which, il seems to
Us. cannot long be resisted"
No dDubl 1t will be " forthcoming. -
No doubt, indeed, it has come in part, anu
there is no doubt IN our minds that The
Journal knows much more than il is will
ng to tell. We shall revive our tesiino>
ny, however, while the Journal cnnceals
It's own, and we add, therefore, from
late number OF the London Times, the
following paragraph with refercuce 10 this
matter:
A subscription was recently opened
to raise funds to circulate free trade tracts
in foreign countries. About four hundred
and forty thousand were subscribed. -
Some of these are TO be printed in New
York. FOR CIRCULATION IN FIFE U. S."
And here is another startling ia ct, which
we find in the Baltimore Clipper:
ave have i, from an indisputable
source. that an agen, Of an English iron
manufacturing establishment, stated few
days since to dealer in hardware. ofihis
city, that he had received positive inslruc-
lions from his principals in Eng land TO
use all the means in his power to procure
the repeal of the American Tariff. The
agent resides in New York, and will
comply with the instructions which he
has received"
And here again is proof positive of
English Interference with our domestic
concerns. We hope that the American
press will speak out against the British
Press in our midst. We have traitorous
foes in our midst disguised as friends
Gold is the god of their idolary, and We
behold them ready to barter away The
freedom of their own land for the reward
and smiles of the rich aud powerful in
other lands"
There is no longer any room to doubt
that The Locofoco party is in League
with England. to force repeal Of the
present Tariff Law, or that the agents o.
the British free trade League are extern
sively scattered over our country, and are
at this moment rendering the most eff
cient aid by the use of British Gold, in
support of the doctrine of free trade, and
the election of James x. Polk.
To doubt the fact, is to doubt the evil
dence of our senses. British manufactu-
rers, as well as politicians. know full well,
that this is in all probability the last OPP
portunity that will be afforded to crush
the " infant Hercules" american manu-
faciurers.) while yeiin the cradle. Sho'ld
the present occasion pass by, and the
whole country become convinced as il in
evitably n ust, of the benefits of this poll.
cy; the door of hope will be forever
closed against the schemes of British pol
iicians and their Locofoco allies, (who are
bat Tories in dIsguise,) of securing TO
England monopoly Of the American
market, aud enslaving US to the interests
of that grasping aud ambitious power.--
The present is death struggle that is to
determine the question, whether The sup
ply of the American market with manu-.
featured goods, shall be subj to The Ca
price of Eogland, or controlled bv our own
citizens. And deny it, who will : The
Wing side of The question Is The Ameri-
can side, aud the Loeofoco the British
side.
