PRICE OF WHEAT AND FLOUR
BROAD.

F-a
The Locofoco stump orators are continual
ly harping upon the present low price of
Wheat and Flour which they endeayor
10 persuade the people is caused by the
Tariff. The Buffalo Commercial AdseT-
tiser thus conclusiyely shows the fallacy Of
this argument.
"One cause of 1.-The low price is, we have
more than we can at present consume. What
is to be done with these products of our
forests, fields and daries? Sell them, say
free traIers. But to whom2 Where is the
foreign market you would have us look 70,
instead of a home market? England?-She
supplies herself, and does moi 60 a begging
for bread. Her grain crops have turned oat
well, and her supplies are al hand. Ire
land alone fifteen years has supplied more
than haif ofher coin, grain and -four.
"But, say these theorists, We can send 10
other countries besides EngIand. Well sup
pose We try a few ports. VIII you stop at
Danfzic? wheat there is IS cents per BUSH
ell, At Hamburg, it is IS cents. AL Odes-
sa 80 cents while in New York it ranges from
So to 81 cents, and that too when the sup
lply is unprecedented.
"No, it is idle to talk about looking for a
market 8 or 1900 miles of. Farmers are
in want of no foreign market where their
wheat mus, pay a duty of60 per cent. But
they should build up in their own land a
home market, and then the prices of what
they sell will be regulated BY no duties or
sliding scales, and theirmarket not 10 be cut
oifatihe very lime when they are most in need
ofn."
As Gen Jackson very properly commended
in his letter to DR.. Coleman of North Carroll
ma, in 1924, the farmer must find a aome
market for his produce, or be has none al
all. 1.-The finds a low price for his produce
at home, where there is SOM demand, he
must find a still lower one abroad, where
there is generally no demand. But these
Democratic sympathisers fer the poor far
mer would repeal the tariff ofis42, brcakup
the manufacturing establishments, and drive
the operatives TO agricultural pursuits; thus
increasing the competition in that branch Of
industry, a~ugmenting the quantity Of pro-
ducts, and destroying the only market for
them, viz: the home one. Great friends of

The following elevated appeal is from the
Lexington Intelligencer:
s.MR. CLAY is now in the sunset of his
days. His life in its morning brilliancy, in
its meridian glory, and its more tempered and
declining radiancy has been spent in the
service Of his country-in honest, upright
endeavor 10 promote her honor, her glory,
and her prosperity. If ever country had a
faithful son, a faithful servant, that country ia
ours-that son and servant is Henry CLAY.
On him-on his noble and self-sacrihcing
patriotism-his GREAT HEART, we have re-
lied in every crisis and peril. and our conf
dence has never been misplaced-we have
never been deceived, or found him unequal
to the occasion. His name and his. fame
are interviewer with the history of our ccun-
try for nearly half a century; they are The
brightest marks upon its pages, and will
forever, not only illustrate them, but orna.
ment the history ~ofnaGn, and sparkle in eve
ry region where mind, moral light and polit-
.ical liberty are known and appreciated. Ia
the course of nature his long stirring aud
~eveniful life must soon come TO a closei-
This is the last time in all human probahili-
ty, yes, the last, that he can ever appear be-
fore his countrymen as a candidate for their
