traits, their errors counsel, reprove, encourage
and direct them; break up their vicious assocla-
tions by affording them vlrtuous instead; abol-
ish all vain distinctions of rank and dress, and be
to them companions and brethren. See that the
houses built for them are commodious and always
in repair; afford them adequate pecunary aid
where it may be done with prospect OF benefit :
see that all their children attend school and are
well educated encourage and aid their emigration
from the crowded dens of great cities to suitable
locations in the country; and impress on all
who need the counsel the vital Importance OF In
dustrv, Cleanliness, Temperance and Economy.
Adopt these means, and faithfully adhere TO them,
and the number of Paupers will every year dmln-
ish, until only the decrepit, the manned and the
incurably vicious will remain Paupers, while the
great mass will have become and will continue
virtuous, independent, useful, tax-paying instead
of tax-consuming citizens.
Such arc some Of the leading ideas of DR..
Channing's Address, which we have read with
profit, and heartily commend to general conside-
ration and acceptance We understand that So
ciety has been formed or is forming in our city,
with the determination TO search thoroughly the
nature. causes and remedies of Pauperism, and
we trust il will be numerous, rcsolute, and cntlrc
lv successful.

Smuggling.


The Free Trade journals are calling for a re-
duction of the Tariff on the ground of the ten
dency of high duties to encourage Smuggling.
They seem to forget that in the most considerable
instance of Smuggling detected this winter the
article smuggled was quantity of Watches, on
which the duty is barely seucn and a half per
cent If men will smugge under such duty,
what use in reducing the Tariff to prevent Snug
Cling
We should consider it just as reasonable to call
for the abolition Of the laws against stealing, house
breaking, sc. because people are tempted to break
them, as to call for an abrogaGon of the Tariff on
account of Smuggling Those who smugglc know
they do wrong-that they seek to enrich them
selves by defrauding the whole People. If the
Tariff is to be broken down to keep these lnno-
cents out of trouble, how low must we go 1t
is clear that y per cent. is not low enough, and
the Government cannot live under twenty.
But suppose we give up the Tariff altogether-
what then? Revenue must be raised by Direct
Taxes and will not rogues smuggle then Ger
tainly Dishonest men will conceal or cloak
their property in order to evade the payment Of
their just proportion; we shall have thousands
Smuggling where we now have dozens. The
only way out of the frying pan is into the fire.
Better stay where we are,

p The Courier compares the Opposition Let
4er Carriers to Couaterfeiters, and regards the
Newspapers which apologize for them accord
ingly. All we have to say to this is that if any
body were to establish an Opposition Mint, and
issue coinage containing more Gold in each
Eagle and more Silver in each Dollar than is con-
tanned in those of the Government, we should be
induced to regard Their offence with much allow
ance.
The Courier is as unfortunate in its law as its
logic. When the Federalists of New England
disobeyed the Embargo Law for the purpose of
testing its constitutionalty IN the Supreme Court,
nobody stigmatized them as aw-breahers' on a
par with counterfeiters. The Country recognized
their course as the proper one to test the disputed
