READ THIS. MECHANICS

DocTRINE OF THE SOUTHERN FREE TRADITEs.
Mr. McDuflie has published long letter. in the
Charleston Mercury, in which he expresses his be-
lief that Mr. Polk will use his influence and pow
er to reduce the Tariff to the lowest possible stand
ard.
In the following extract, Mr. Med. takes the
ground, which we presume will soon become the
Democratic party standard, of imposing an excise
upon domestic Manufactures. He says:
The very lowest rate OF revenue duties upon
sugar and iron and upon all manufactures Of iron,
cation and wool, is an unjust discrimination in "a
vor of one branch Of domestic industry and against
another. The true point Of equality and Justice,
as | have always maulined, would be to impose
the same rate Of duty on rie homemade, that we
impose on the imported manufacture
This doctrine is gravely urged upon the country,
as the only constitutional mode of raising a rcven-
ne to support The Government, by this Southern
leader, who has great influence with ]. X Polk.
How long will the free and intelligent New Eng.
land Mechanics and laborers support sucn a party,
that puts forth such doctrines; Up Up, Tariff
men, to the rescue before il is too late to retrieve
u fatal sacrifice Of your interests. -.4iqs

POTATOES.

We hear sad accounts from all quarters, Of the
destruction Of potatoes. Most of those that were
apparently sound when put in the cellar are now
more or less affected, and in instances large
cribs have been ruined before the owners were a.
ware OF danger. So far as we are informed, the
immediate cause of this is the heat and moisture
generated by large pilcs-and when we say large
piles, we mean accumuatons of even foot or
two in depth. The only salvation seems to be, to
spread thin and keep cool and dry. Even where a
potatoe is partially consumed, the disease may be
dried up and arrested but the virus remains, and
needs only the favoring circumstances of warmth
and moisture 10 quicken it into new life and ener-
gy. We observe that German chemists recon-
mends the free application of lime 10 fields affect

they have no starch mills, the farmers wash their
