ted with the business they have enga ged
in. We are pleased TO see such eviden-
ces of substantial wealth going into ope-
ration in our county.
o. The Albany Journal in noticing
the above paragraph. says: This is one
of the fruits of the "Black Tariff" Eng
fish Manufacturers come here with their
capital. which is expended first in build
ing manufactures and purchasing ma
chinery, and then in purchasing wool and
employing laborers and finally in pur-
chasing flour, meat, butter, clothing, &c.
for the support of the persons employed
in the manufactures. All this gives bu-
siness and affords encouragement to A
merican farmers, mechanics and laborers.
And this is the practical effect of a Pro-
tective Tariff. The free trade policy
would have kept Messrs. Thornton. Jew.
EFT & Co. in England where, after pur-
chasing European wool, employing Eng
lish mechanics and laborers, and support.
ing them from their own graneries, their
cloths would have been sent to America
to be sold for specie.
Those therefore, who would prefer
keeping our manufactures and workshops
in England, will vote for James X. Polk,
who is in favor of Free trade and against
protecting American Wool by duty.
Let it be remembered, that James K.
Polk was nominated for President be-
cause he is against PROTECTIVE TARIFF
and in favor of the immediate annexation
of Tenas to the Union. And these things
being remembered. those who wan, TO pay
tribute to England and to extend the do
minion of Slavery, should vote for Polk
and Dallas. This is the true issue.
