BRITIsH PoLIcY.--Such facts as the fol-
lowing, speak loud moutbcd against the
restrictive policy Of the United States, and
arc worth sea Of protective theories;
"Great Britain has aly.Js sougn, -
supply herself from her own resourccs--
She has, however, Of late years, most
thoroughly changed her mode Of arriving
At that desired result. Formerly she
sought by taxing her own people. and maxi
ing all the materials Of labor high, 10 pro-
mote the industry Of her people. She has
learned, by hard experience, that the re-
verse is the true policy to supply. Even
her manufacturers have gone in body to
Parliament, duplicated not 10 be protect
ed any more, and iheorist and politicians
have been compelled to comply with their
requests. The unshackclcd industry Of
her own people will now not only supply
herself, but all other countries where in
dusry is oppressed by Protection. In tho
United States industry is destroyed by
Protection. On recent occasion the
ship Kalamazoo, and some others, were to
be new shealhed with yellow motol. An
American mechanic applied for tho work.
The answer was, "ibc duty Ii two cents
per pound, which, on the 100000 pounds
metal required, amounts TO $4,000
Rather than pay that, it is better for Us 10
90 TO England and get the work done.''----
The labor on these vessels would have a.
mounted to $4,000, which was transfer
red to English laborcrs, aud taken from
United States operatives, because of the
duty on The material. This is the way
England supplies "hcrself from her own
resourscs," and "tho way The United
States don't supply themselves from their
own resources" There is none Of the
metal in question made in this country.

| Juneau RrroRM.--The Michigan Sig
nal has lately published several articles
replete with common sense, on the subject
of Legal Reform. The writer concludes
his remarks, and sums up his views in the
last number, as follows;
We have now briefly gone through with
the suggestions respecting Legal Reform,
which we promised. We have shown, as
wo think successfully, that the present
system of administering justice might bo
greatly amended.
BY deciding every case on its moiits,
according TO equity, so as to do justice be-
tween man and man.
BY abolishing most of the Techuicaiitics
of tho Common Law.
BY abolishing legal Delays, so that
judgment may DO obtained in onc.four,h Of
the time now required.
BY reducing tho Expenses of suits to a
very great extent.
And by making important alterations in
the proceedings Of the Courts.
The only plausible objection we hive
heard 10 these alterations of the Law, is,
that the present system has been malured
by the united wisdom Of the wisest and
best men Of masy ages past, who havo
made the law the study Of their lives; and
can it be wise to throw away this occumu-
lution Of valuable rules and presidents,
and thus put ourselves upon an ocean Of
uncertainties, with no other guido than
some infatuated and fanntical rcformer,
who has not a tenth part of the learning
he rejecisl
To this We reply that il would not throw
away single principle, decision or prac-
lice that is valuable. We would retain
every one of them that is valuable. But
there may be such thing ns the "accumu-
lated folly of ages" and Whenever we find
that, we would dispense with IT, Besides,
if similar course Of reasoning were
adopted in other cases, how could there be-
any improvement Suppose Luther, in
stead of thinking for HIMSELF had said that
the system of religion then existing, in all
lis parts, was the product Of the combined
wisdom Of the wisest and best fathers Of
the Church for ages, and was therefore TOO
venerable and exalted 10 be called in Ques-
ton by so humble an individual as himself,
where then would have been the relorma-
lion that he Accomplishment What i'm
provemcnts can be made in any science
or art by those who have such blind and
stupid veneration fer tho past, us to even
prohibit all enquiry into the need Of any
change?
The evils which result 10 the people
from our present system Of administering
law, arc greater than those of any other
cgolized provision under which the poo.
pie OF the State suffer, il we except such
as arise under the License system.
