tors Van Buren, and Nathan Sandiord. This has
been his uniform position with regard to the Ia
riff and the views Of our State thereon. Being a
Free Trade man, and the principal question now
to be decided being Protection or Free Trade, he
acts on his convictions and declines to vote for
Mr. Clay. II the friends of Protection in our
State viii only be equally consistent, the Clay
/ Electors will be chosen by at least 100000 ma

IL The Journal Of Commerce is Tohashng
It's old cavis against the Tariff. 1t affects
not to sec how the importation Of Twenty Mil
lions Of Specie last year was desirable, and far
lhcr importation Of Ike amount is not deemed
requisite this year. Inc simple explanation is,
tina, we needed Specie last year TO restore and re-
nvigoratc cur. Currency; and'thc very fact that
we obtained liberal supply last year is the reason
why we do not need farther supply now,
So of its other cavils. All along the friends OF
Protection have insisted that their sort of Tariff
would by no mcaus destroy our Foreign Trade,
though it might temporarily check that Trade
and permanently change It's character. Under
Protection we import less Cloth but more Log
wood and other exotic materials OF Which Cloth
is made, and the materials imported will far OK
coed The Cloth III bulk and weight. We shall
import fewer Shoes and Hats but more Hides
and Furs, and SO throughout. The proportion Of
our Imports 10 our Products will be less un.
der Protection, but our aggregate OF Products
will be so greatly increased, that our absolute I'M.
porations will, after short time, be little If any
diminished by Protection. The Journal must sec
into this ii it wishes TO sec the truth So it must
understand how many articles can be produced
cheaper under Protection than otherwise-thc
market being wider and steadier than ii subject
To be at any moment deranged by Importation. But
demonstration is wasted upon the Journal. That
paper discharges only Parthian arrows, then van.
slcs from the field. Relutc one of It's sophlstres
to-day, and ii takes no notice OF the rcutatiun,
but rcItcratcs the sophsln next week.
