The Locofoce Tariff

The country is beginning to feel some OF
the ultimate effects of the locofoco tariff In
the reduction OF wages and the dismissal of

which have done great deal eli business

profits on their labors, and the proprietors
have no desire 10 go on. The directors Of
the cotton factories at Uxbrige, Massachu>
