The spirit of democracy. [volume] (Woodsfield, Ohio) 1844-1994, 1849-12-29

The Hibernia No. came down las
evening, and landed above the Bridge
As we predicted yesterday, the command.
ing interest concluded not to take down
her chimnies. In consequence she re.
shipped on board the Zachary Taylor
what few passengers and what small
amount Of freight she had, and this morn
ing returned to Pittsburgh.
Here, then, is the groundwork, we sup
pose, of another law-sait. This circum-
stance affords ample ground for reflection,
when taken in connection with the fact,
that since the last rise in the river this
same boat. for some purpose or other, had
her tall chimnies down, and could with
very little trouble and expense, have taken
off six feet of them, thus preparing herself
for the exigency oflast evening. Reason,
prudence, judgment, good counsel, even
common sense, would have advised the
taking off of the chimnies. Why not do
it then! Why persist in the face of every
thing that is right proper or equitable, to
run manfestly against public opinion in
this matter!
Inere rs reason; ana we VIII try 10
solve the mystery. In connection with
this Pittsburgh and Cincinnati packet line,
there is an influence controlled by one
David Holmes of Pittsburgh, and E. NJ
Stanton of Steubenville. They are the
ringleaders in this unwarrantable, unjust
and unreasonable opposition to this great
National Highway, the Wheeling and
Belmont Bridge.
Yesterday, as the BRILLIANT chimnies
were being taken off, Captain Grace re-
marked that he expected he would lose his
captaincy by accommodating her chimnies
to the circumstances surrounding him. but
while he was captain he 1could be captain.
The chimnies were shortened, and he pass
ed on his way like sensible. honest man.
As the lIibernia was coming down yes
terday, this Holmes and Captain Batcheler
stopt at Steubenvlle to consult with STAN
ton, and came down on the James Nelson,
we believe. The result OF their consulta-
ton may be seen in what we have above
stated in reference to this boat
What will become of Captain Grace is
yet to be seen. We opine he will be COM
PEELED 10 yield his place to some more
plant tool, as this Holmes IS ia large stock
holder in the Wheel. arg. Dec. 10.

Exertions have been made to execut

mia, which have not been fully successful
owing to the limited provisions of the act
and obvious causes peculiar to the condi
ton of those territories. A further reduc
ton in letter postage is recommended.
the correspondence were relieved from thu
burthen of the franking privilege, the Pres
ident is confident that uniform rate O
five cents per letter, regardless of distance
might be safely adopted.
Since the commencement of the las
session of Congress, postal arrangement
has been made with Great Britain, ant
though the attempt to extend the system tc
France has not yet been successful, it has
not been abandoned.
The Board of Census has made the ne.
cessary arrangement for taking The census
and the passage of a law to carry into
effect the provisions of the constitution up.
on that subject is recommended.
The District OF Columbia is recommend.
ed to the liberal and fostering care of Con
gress.
The necessity of each of the co.ordi.
nate branches of government confning
itself strictly to its appropriate sphere, is
strongly urged. With recommendation
of such measures as in his opinion the
country requires, the Office Of the Exeou-
tive. in matters oflegislation, is performed,
until bills are presented to him for ciopro-
val. The independence of Congress OF
Executive dictation is asserted as the only
sure means Of giving proper dignity to the
Representative body, and making the elec.
tor, in fact as we'll as in theory, compo.
nent part of the sovereign power. The
Representative should be responsible only
to his constituents, and the veto should
never be interposed to stife the expression
of the public will, except to prevent en-
croachments Of the legislative power. and
to check hasty or unconstitutional action.
The Message closes by inculcating
veneration for the Union, which tor more
than half century has stood unshaken,
whilst kingdoms and empires have fallen.
The patriots who framed it have gone
down to their graves, and it remains the
proudest monument TO the memory, and
the object OF affection with every one wor-
thy to bear the American name. A disso-
luton of the Union is deprecated as the
last calamity to the human race. Upon
its preservation depends the happiness of
the present generation and those who are
10 come after VI.
The President concludes by pledging
himself to the nation that whatever danger
nay assail the Union, he will stand by it,
and maintain its integrity to the full cx-
ent of the obligations imposed and the
powers conferred upon him by the Con.
titution.

The Words of Patriotism.

The following, from Tie Lire Oak, pub.
lished at Lafayette, Louisiana. is the Ian
guage OF a true patriot. "The Constitu-
ton as it is-the Union as it is''-this is
the sentiment that animates the sincere
lover of the country, and we commend II
to the hotspurs who are loudly mouthing
the falricidal notes Of diSunion.
"CALIFoRNIA AND SLAvERY.-California
has formed its constitution, in which slave
ry is prohibited. 1t is questioned whether
as territory, she has right to form such
a constitution. There is no question how
ever, that Congress has the right to accept
or reject that constitution. Suppose, how.
ever, that the present Congress admits
California as State. What course will
those who are discontented adopt! Will
the southern States act singly or in com.
bnation! VIII they consider themselves
IN or out of the Union? If the Union
what action will they take! If om Of it
what form of government will they estab.
lish! Will they repudiate at once the ju.
risdiction Of the Federal Government
shut up the Custom Houses and drive a.
way the Judges and Marshalls! Will the
Federal Government submit? Will the
Executive feel bound or not, to execute the
laws! What will be done with the army
and navy, and the national treasure! We
hear and read great deal on this subject,
some sound argument, some furious dec
lamation-but no one has told us, in de-
tail, what will be done, and how ii is to be
done. We are tired of threats and theo-
us the details. The Constitu-
ton as ii is-the Union as il iS--these are
the ends, no doubt that all are aiming at.
If we trample on one or dissolve the other,
what lies before us?-The wreck of liberty
in sea of blood"

Protection.

Nothing is so great an obstacle to free
trade, in America, as the false light in
which the protectionists represent the opin-
ions and precedents' entertained and es-
tablished by Jefferson, Madison and their
compatriots. They regarded freedom as
the basis of industry and trade, and labor,
as possessing, wi.hin itself, the elements
of its own protection; but for the purpose
of rendering US Independent as nation,
in times when commercial intercourse
with other nations was suspended. they
thought it the duty of government to en-
courage, by bounties, the manufacture of
various articles. Such bounties may be
necessary in peculiar emergencies, as it
was necessary for the protection of the
early settlers of the west to establish a
bounty for wolf scalps-only with view,
however, to the general independence and
security, and not at all with reference to
the distribution of rewards to particular
branch of industry. The object of duties.
in early times, was declared to be the en-
couragement of domestic manufactures;
and this encouragement, legitimately given
through direct bounties, does not violate
the spirit of free trade. A great mistake,
however, was made, by following the Eu-
ropean models in our system of protec.
ton, thus establishing system OF indi-
rect bounties, by the uncertainty of their
operation, have produced constant de-
rangement in commerce, and led to theo.
ry, by protectionsts. inconsistent with free
trade and equal privileges. The theory
to which we aIlude is the necessity of gov
ernmental protection of labor. Protec-
ton to industry is now the ostensible OBJ
ject of tariff duties. If we concede, for
the sake Of argument. that protection TO
manufacturing labor is necessary, it must
still be admitted that protective tariffs fur
nish, at best, but an uncertain, unsteady,
and therefore, an inadequate protection.

Competition will reduce the wages OF labor
and it then depends entirely upon the man
ufacturer, whether he shall be the almo-
ner of the bounty of government, or the
recipient Of its fayors. 1t requires but a
moderate knowledge OF human nature to
teach us that his own interest will be made
paramount.
A system which would provide for
payment ofbounties directly to the laborer,
uponproofthat his wages were inadequate,
would be much more just and much less
complicated. This is duty, however,
which more properly belongs TO the State
governments. We are, therefore, opposed
to any system of bounties by the general
government in times of peace.-Tolcdo

PATENT MEDIcINEs.-The following is a
paragraph from the report of DR.. T. C.
Edwards to the last Congress:
"The merriment Of him who would cry
over the misortuucs and follies of his race,
cannot but be excited when he reads this
record of uncouth names. incongruous
compounds, and incompatible combina-
tons; while the sadness Of him who laughs
at "folly as ii lies" will be- provoked at
the consciousness Of imposition and in
jury to the duped purchasers Of their nos.
sums. The oath presented by law, and
duly administered to each applicant is,
that "his invention is new and useful" an
examination of the list will clearly exhibit
perjury most foul on every page. No.
combination, then, "new," is 'useful," !" and
no ''useiul" combination is ''new." Al
most every prescription combines some
active known agent, disguised under COL.
ors, and heralded with name in many
instances as uncouth as it is insignificant
and false . 49, a,,e,.
