what do Mr.. Polk and the followers Of
Mr.. Polk. propose! They say 10 agri-
culiurisls " Your produce is low" How

or 10 enigra.e South aud raise them on
FAR more fertile an prolific soil. Al the
same time, lheforey lhatthey diminishfie
demand, they would.iactedse the snpuly.
And this is their way Of remedying lie
evils under which agriculture suffers!
Bntthe great questions before the coun.
Try, are IN regard TO the measures oil tho
country, whether We shall 90 in the tracks
which our fathers have made for us, or re-
verse all their opinions, all their measures
and take anew course for ourselves. And
pui It TO you to-day, and am willing 10
leave The decision 10 this great Slate,-
how the great State OF New York means
TO bear herself, h Nv This great State means
10 conduct herself in the decisionof these
questions. Whose looks upon the map
and sees her stretching over SO great an ca
teniOf he Union who's loooks al The cen.
'us, and sees her large popula lion---looks
al the commercial returns, and sees how
great al share Of the business of the country
belongs 10 her must contemplate New York
as holding great, had almost said fear
lul responsibility for the future conducto Of
this Government. am mol to doubt that
her Intelligent people will acquii then
selves on this occasion, as they think
their oNn interests and the interest Of the
country require. II Iwere 10 doublthat.
! should doubt the continuance Of the
prosperity Of ouI country; should doubt
that the interests Of the Union wolld 90
forward. hui should expect to see them
go down deeper and deeper ill they fl
nally sink in ruin.
And now, gentlemen, wi h my best
good wishes for you al, allow me take Uf
you most respectful leave.
