1t is, then. known what quantity of land
will be cultivated, what grain, or pulse, OF
roots, will be grown from year to year, and
the amount Of produce is subject 10 no uncer-
tainty but that Of the seasons. So the man.
ufacturing establishments are precisely gaug-
ed, and, thoughthese are progressive in them
selves, yet they may be regarded as. stationa-
nv and constant when contrasted with our
own ever changing industry. Unwearied
pains are taken to ascertain the extent of de-
mand for British goods abroad, and the guam
tty and probable supply of the raw material.
With all these elements an approximate cal
culation may be made. The effects ola CIV
en- policy may be to some extent foreseen.
and the causes being known, it is safe to ar
que that like causes will produce like ef-
fects.
With us the picture is reversed. Our sta
tistical details are loose, slOvenly, and unreli-
able, not to say faithless to the very extreme
of inaccuracy. The modes and objects OF
our husbandry, and all our industrial employ
ments, are necessarily fluctuating. New
sources Oh OfSt mum.
The amount of any given article produced in
one year scarcely furnishes ground for plau-
sible conjecture as to the quantity to be ex-
pected the next; and the most sagaclous
statesman must throw down his pen in des-
pair, whenever he attempts to reduce his an
ticipations to the future to even approximate
calculation.
Irepeat then, sir, with US all experiment is
but leap into the dark. Let us be content
with present prosperity, and suffer not our
selves to be bewildered by the fears of evils,
which NAV be fancied but cannot be fore
seen.
1t is worthy of notice, while on this point,
that, whatever the practice Of England may
be, the teachings of her popular writer's tend
TO the very doctrines inculcated by this re-
port. Authors are subsidized to manufacture
free trade therories for the foreign market,
and large sums are raised to carry on this
new missionary enterprise of discriminating
through the world these doctrines of politi-
cal economy which England is wise enough
to repudiate at home.
England spares no pains to acquire an in
fuence here. She aims to dictate our eco
nomical theories, our commercial system, our
legislation. She commends herself to the
North, by Boosting of her achievements in the
cause Of abolition of human slavery; and to
win favors at the South, she holds out the
delusive hope that her influence WILDE thrown
into the scale of universally free and unre-
stricted trade.
But, sir, we never to be in fact, what near
tbreescore and ten years our. fathers declared
MS to be of right, independent of England!

CIETY

Reported for the Ne,c York Obserrer.1
This Society held its anniversary on
Tuesday morning, at the Apollo Rooms,
F. Jackson, Esq, being in the chair. and
was opened with prayer by DR. Brisbane
of Ohio.
VIM Lloyd Garrison read from Hosea
w., and declared the platform to be free,
open to all who chose to occupy it. He
was followed by Mr. A Ballou. who plum.
ged into the disputed question of moral
and political power, and argued that the
former greatly excelled the latter for Abo.
lition purposes, in speech of considerable
length.
He was followed by Rev. Charles A.
Dennison, of Boston, who took the oppo
site side of the question, and occupied
some time in an eulogy of the ballot-box.
Mr. d. was one of those who left the So
cioty few years ago. He argued strong
ly that God had given political power TO
man as a weapon, and it was right 10 use
it. Continued interruptions of Kisses,
shouting and applause occurred during his
speech, and as he sat down,
Mr. GARRISON rose, amid tremendous
uproar, and denounced him IN the most
violent language. He said he was wolf

to gag women. And he had come here
to address an anti.slavery meeting. None
but recreant priest would have dared to
do this. ] repudiate him, | pronounce

RUSSIAN MODE OF CURING DRUNKEN.

RUSSIAN MODE OF CURING DRUNKEN
NEss.-The following singular means for
curing habitual drunkenness is employed
by Russian physician, Dr. Schroeder, or
Brzese-L itewski 1T consists in confin-
ing the drunkard in a room and furnish
ing him, at discretion, with brandy dilu-
ted with two-thirds of wa,er,as much wine,
beer, and coffee as he desires, but contains
ing one.third of brandy all the food-the
bread, meat, &c ARE stepped in brandy
and water. The poor wight is continually
drunk and 'dort' On the fifth day of this
regime he has an extreme disgust for
brandy he earnestly requests other Diet
but his desires must not be yielded 10, IN
til the poor wretch no longer desires to
eat or drink he is then certainly cured
of his 'penchant" for drunkenness. lie
acquires such disgust for brandy that he
is ready to vomit at the sight of it.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES him 90 on --"No,
No, Dennison. "-"Lot him reply. The
scene bcggars description, and 1t was on
ly quoted on the promise that Dennison
should have a chance after Burleigh. who
occupied some forty. five minutes in dry
speech. After which Dennison rose, and
calmy replied TO Garrison's charges. His
answer was, "By their fruits We shall
know them" He did not differ from
VIM. Lloyd Garrison on the great point
of anti.Siauery, but on other points he did
differ heaven-wide. AS 10 being an apos.
tate, he opened the Bible before him, and
read the memorable words physician
heal myself" The scene again became
confusion worse COMPOUNDED. Dennison
was the favorite, but hooting and kissing
mingled with the applause.
Garrison rose: "once there was a man
named Benedict Arnold, - cloud misses
so that he could not proceed. why
hiss ? Are you cowardsl Tremendous
hissing.) Are you dastards? Qncreas-
ing noise of all kinds.) A voice from the
crowd, Judge not. "--Garrison That
man is bastard whoever he is--(in a
loud voice) say then there was once a
man named Benedict voice. ''we
won't hear of him" and continued confu-
sion. )Dennison rose and called out ''don't
think he means me, my friends" Gar
rison: "They do think so, and therefore
they hiss. They think the coat fits you,
and therefore they hiss" Dennison {.
"You are the one it fits best" A man at
the side: "This meeting is not to be brc-
ken up by clergyman and gagger Of
women" Another voice "Who are
you 2" and the uproar became tremen,
dous. Garrison at length got chance
to denounce Mr. Dennison and eulogize
Abby Kelly, whom hatpriest had dared to
gag.
Abby then rose and gave history of
the Society, and although "she did not
wish 10 make a speech" she occupied an
hour in her usual interesting and modest
way.
After she sat down, there was some
thing said near Mr. Dennison, Mr. Garrison
announced the Hutchinsons. There was
a rush towards that part of the room, and
we saw one woman on one side OF Mr.
Dennison and Abby on the other, both
vociferating with the utmost carnestness,
but we would not hear what it was about,
and only feared for Mr.. DIS personal
safety. What became of him we don't
know. There was some singing and Il
great deals of confusion, and then dcsPer,
sion.
This Isl very fair specimen of the
whole proceedings
From such an assemblage we would cx-
pect nothing better than the adoption of
Resolutions of the stamp of the one that
follows, which forms the concluding one
Of series adopted by this meeting.
Resolved That the Abolitionists Of
this country should make it one the
primary objects of their agitation 10 dis
solve The American Union.
Comment on such disgraceful transac-
tons is altogether unnecessary Such
is Abolitionism, as il developes itself in
associations.

The Cadiz sentinel. [volume] (Cadiz, Ohio) 184?-1851, 1844-08-14

05- Here is sensible article from the Alba
ny Argus, which we recommend TO the attention
of every candid man.
The Tariff PiCture-DO not the Vyhiss
filvOr partial PrOtee,i0ml
The wings are exceedingly indignant at the
Democratic Press, for holding up the low prices
of produce before the farmers of the country.
But the case is simple.
AT the time Of the passage of the Tariff Of
AZ, the wings most confidently promised the
farmers, higher prices not only for their wool,
bat also their wheat and rye, beef and pork
lhls we assert beyond the fear of contradiction,
The democrats are now testing these promises
by the actual results, and it is found TO be q
fixed fact, that wheat and rye and beef and
pork, have not been lower within twenty years!
The Agricultural interest is in state Of IN
tense depression 1t was thought to be very
bad two years ago, but now it is still worse.
Wool has risen some 90 or 80 per cent, but
most of the other articles which constitute the
bulk of the produce of the country, has fallen
between 30 and 40 per cent.
Do the wings dispute these facts? Certainly
not; but they growl over Them, because they
perceive that these make them stand before the
four millions of farmers as false promisers, and
and therefore unworthy of future confidence.
While such is the depressed condition of the
farmers, are not manufacturers reaping large
profits, and do they not attribute these profits TO
the law Of ~? Most assuredly they do. Now
the question is whether, if congress thinks pro-
Iper TO interfere, it should not likewise pass a
law TO add TO the profits of the farmer as well as
those of the manufacturer. This is the qdes-
ton
The country has a right to demand EQUAL
AND JUST PROTECTION TO ALL ITS INDUSTRIAL
INTERESTS. Do not the erroneous inequalities
which now exist under the operation of the law
Iof AZ demand fairer and more equitable ad-
Ijustment.
This is the point upon which democrats should
fix the whig party. The obstinate adherence of
the whig party to all the provisions of the pre-
sent law, under the banner Of the Tariff as it is,
Ishows that they countenance a system of PAR
TTAL PRoTECTIoN, while the democrats, who
think it was not intended that the manufacturing
Interest should be raised 80 per cent. in value,
while the agricultural was depressed 10 per
cent, 90 resoluteIy for such notifications as
VIII mike the Tariff, in the language of their sa-
gacous candidate, Coy. PoLK, law for g fair
and .jast protection to all the great interests Of
the rbolc Union, embracing agriculture, maRa-
faetmesy the &eechanic arts, commerce and aati-
CATION"
We fearlcssly appeal to ffeemen 10 determine
whether this is not the TRUE AMERICAN POSI-
TIoN.

soon as possible

1t will be perceived that the above challenge
is dated the 18th of July last! The Clay Club
have had ii in their possession for nearly month
And yet they have neither accepted it, or noti-
fed the Hickory Club of their intentions in the
premises. 1t is evident from this, that the fed
eral party of Harrison county, fear discussion
of their principles before the people. We never
knew an instance in our life where there has
been fair and honorable discussion of the meas
ures and policy of the two great parties, but that
the Democracy came off victorious The fedeT-
alparty know this, and hence they conclude that
discretion is the better part ofVaor, and they will
not engage in discussion, in which they are
morally certain of being vanqushed! The fed
eraliss won't discuss great questions in the face
of the world-that is not their policy. They
won't reason, because their principles, when un-
dersood are SO obnoxious and anti-republican,
that no rue-hoarted American will embrace them,
The iederalists of Cadiz would rather undertake
to break down the Sentinel establshment--intro-
duce politics into private life-get up great shows
of banners and ribalds, blue badges and bobinet
laccs-shout and scream and sing, and insult
dcmocrats-addrcss themselves to the worst pas
sions of mankind, and carry the election if posi-
bic, BY revival Of the mad excitement and hac-
canadian reyelry of 1910. Let moral commu-
nifty ponder upon these things.

DISSOLUTION or THE UNION.

This is the way they talk about it down South.
We copy from the Mississippan:
"The wings are endeavoring to create the
impression that the friends of annexation at the
South present the issue of Texas or dsunion.'
Aware of the firm attachment which men Of all
parties have to the Union, they seek TO make an
issue before the country which no party has
made, and which we honestly hope no respecta-
BILE number of the American people are dispo-
sed now TO make, or will at any time hereafter
present. 1t is true that such reckless men as
James Hamilton have, in times gone by, reared
the standard Of dsunion; and that the same man
as recklessly now filings out the motto Of Tex
as with or without the Union;' but who is Ham
ton9 Is he not the euogist of Henry Clay,
and but lately his defender on the tariff ques-
ton? How long has it been since letter Of
his eulogising Mr. Clay, and directly assailing
General Jackson, was published with flourish
Of trumpes by the whig presses from one end
of the Union to the other9 Let the wings an
swer this before they hold up the sayings Of a
misguided man as an expos,on Of democratic
princpes Hamilton is bank man, and a
reckless, disappointed, and ruined stock specu-
lator. He has not acted with the democratic
party since the first triumphant election Of An
drew Jackson TO the Presidency 10 whatever
visionary or reasonable scheme such man may
bend his course, he cannot be considaIed as re-
fleeing the will, opinions, or designs of any re-
spectacle portion of the democratic party, II
any party is TO be held accountable for the words
of such a man, that party with which he for a
long time has acted-tte Clay sohig party
should alone be.
