| To the maintenance of that system are now
the largest contributors. Without that aid it per-
| ishes. ! ask you then to reflect whether, as
men, as Christians, as Americans, as statesmen or
teachers of statesmen, we are not bound at least
10 inquire before we adopt any measures tending to
render us the accomplices of the great moneyed
arisocracy of Great Britain in the preparation of
such series of crnes'
Happily the effort for the humiliation Of this
cold blooded and detestabe system need involve
sacrifice. An examination OF the tables here given
must, as think, convince you that, under system
of efficient protecton-that system which looks TO
upon monopoly for the sake of perfect free
dom of trade--the return to labor and capital both
increase. Ii must, think, satisfy you that, when
we build the most furnaces, we produce the most
food; that when build the most mills, pro.
duce the most cotton; that when we make the most
cloth and iron, we build the most ships; that when
most diminish our necessity for depending on dig
ant markets. enjoy the most pocer TO go 10 those
mar kets; that when we look most 10 home, we en-
Joy most influence abroad.
II is to the inquiry, whether this Is or is not the
case that / invite you. Your influence is great.
Your political friends are accustomed TO look to you
for instruction this great question, and the whole
responsibility Of the success failure OF the present
system-perhaps, indeed, Of our whole system
must rest on you. You have heretofore acted. as
am persuaded, under ga profound sense Of the re-
sponsibilty'' incident to the direction OF affairs in
volving "for good or i'll the destinies" OF millions
of your fellow citizens, and you will not now forget
that "every action of statesman is pregnant with
results which may last for generations; - and,
therefore, will pause and reflect before You under
take the further advocacy of system that tends TO
lay the nation PROSTATE at the feet of Britain.
ask you only TO inquire if the time has not arrived
when we should emancipate ourselves from the con-
troll of such soul destroying system that of Bri
tain has proved itself to be-f il is not time that
should go back to the doctrines Of Adam Smith, re-
pudating entirely those of the men who have repu-
dated him. That emancipation must follow the
establishment Of your association. provided only
that its members determine to study and discuss
this great question preparatory to undertaking to
determine for themselves, to advise others, to
which is the true and certain, the speedy, and the
profitable road to that perfect freedom of trade
which all 80 much desire to established.
am yours, very respectfully,

Liverpool.
grand entertainment was given to Mr. Law
renee, Minister to England, and his suite, at
Liverpool, on the l4th ult., by the American Cham
Der of Commerce. 1t seems to have been an occa-
sion of much festive enjoyment. Mr.. Lawrence
was in his element among men of mercantile tastes
and pursuits, and acquitted himself, evidently,
much to the satisfaction of all. After the cloth
removed, the Queen and the royal family were
first toasted, and then the chairman said
Z" Intimately connected they with the
United States he proposed the health Of their illus
trious chief, the President
This toast followed by 90 Hear, hear and
prolonged cheering.
Mr.. Lawrence responded to this comp liment to
our country in a brief, but pertinent speech.
1.-The clergy both sides of the water were
next toasted, and then the chairman said
Gentlemen, have the greatest pleasure in pro-
posing the health of our distinguished guest on my
right, and we cordially thank him for affordng us
this opportunity of giving him hearty welcome,
the able and fitting representative of his cnteprs-
ing and energetic countrymcn, people whose in
and whom we must ever cherish perpetual friend
ship. [Chcering.] Propose The health Of his
Excellency the Hon. Abbott Lawrence, Minister of
the United States. -
To this toast Mr.. Lawrence made quite a long
speech, and, on the whole, very appropriate one
ton which existed between Liverpool and the
United States; he expressed his sympathy for the
mercantile profession, saying al am of you, and
for you; am myself merchant, bred to toll and
labor, with all the hopes, and fears, and anxicties
attendant on that profession" He avowed his be-
lief that merchants the true peace makers
and peace prcservers of the world. He alluded to
the repeal of the navigation laws, and avowed his
conviction that both countries would derive great
benefits from this change. 1t would, indeed pro-
duce sharp competition, but this would stimulate
both parties to greater skill in modelling and con-
structing vessels, and more economy in sailing
them. 1t would be the son against the father, tho
stars and stripes against that flag that has
braved thousand years the battle and the
breeze"
Several other distinguished gentlemen made
speeches and offered oasts, and the party broke up
in great good humor .-Boston Traveller.
