On Thursday evening last Mr.. Brooke
one Of the Wing aspirants for Congress,
addressed the citizens Of this place. We
do not intend reviewing his speech at length
for we are confident that nothing was as.
serted convincing enough to shake the faith
Of any good democrat. We are glad to adj
nit that his illusions to the democratic par
ty were courteous, and that this feature in
his speech was praisworthy and common.
dable.
He devoted much Of his time to the dis
cussion of the Tariff misunderstanding
positions, and making assertions, which to
say the least Of them, were extraordinary.
The contradictory and inconsistent manner
in which he discussed it, proved that he was
sustaining an unjust cause. He declared
in the outset he would sustain the doctrines
maintained in President Folks inaugural !
and afterwards labOred hard to convince his
audience that every President, with the
exception of John Adams) we have ever
had recommended the protective policy
For boldness Of assertions without even the
shadow of fact on which to base them,
that portion Of his speech can only be
equaled by an article upon the subject Of
the Tariff which recently appeared in the
Wig, purporting to give extracts from vari-
Gus messages and other documents fayora-
BILE to the protective system as now advoca-
ted by the wings elnanating from distin-
guished statesmen, which we completely
exposed. He went over nearly the same
ground, and alluded as did the Wing, to Mr..
JefersOn's letter to Benjamin Austin, in
1916, in which he said we "must NOW
place the manufacturers by the side Of the
agriculturalist' not nurture them at the
expense of the latter as the leaders Of the
wing party advocate, but merely place them
upon an even footing because the seas were
covered with roberies-we were SECLUDED
from the ocean," the British interdicted to
our vessels, all harbors Of the globe without
first proceeding to hersaud paying tribute
and because the French had declared
them lawful prize if they had touched at
the port or been visited BY ship Of the en-
envy nation" II was under all these ex.
traordinary circumstances that Mr. Jefier-
son recommended that the manufacturer
must be placed by the side Of the agricul-
culruralist." But Mr., Brooke failed to in
form his hearers Of these facts. To prove
that Mr.. Jefferson was opposed to the high
Tariff system, we Waufno better evidence

SOMETHING NEw.-The Wing in re.
viewing that portiono of Mr.. Brooke's speech
at Benton, relating to the Tariff, states that
" he shoWed clearly that protection IS deci-
dedly favorable to the institution Of Slavery"
Here is new argument-a virtue belonging
to this measure Of Whigpolicy which we did
not know had ever before been attributed
to it. A protective Tariff " favorable to the
Institution Of slarery!" During the last
canvass, wing presses teemed with the
praises Of that system, and wing orators
re.echOed them from each extremity of the
Union, but it seems some of its praises
were lelt unsung. Can it be that John
Quincy Adams, one Of the leaders of the
Abolition party, who declared that he de-
sired to accomplish the abolition of slavery
although it should sacrifice millions Of lives,
would advocate the "protective system"
which according to Mr.. Brooke !" is deci-
dedly favorable to the institution of slave

are attempting to establish policy perpet-

against measure that will destroy that in

proved beyond doubt that should the system
Of Free Trade 60 into operation, slavery
must be abolished! +" We hope this new
light that has burst upon the minds Of South-
ern politicians, will find its way to Massa-

ton to home industry" The Hon. ]. @.
