The TUE Policy.

While the British press, with scarcrl an eN
ception, is doing what it can to aid the election
of General Pierce, it becomes IA serious matter
of enquiry, why it is so. The answer IS plain
and palpable. because the policy he advo-
Gates is beneficial to the British Government
But lust so far as 1t is beneficial to that Gov
erntnent it is injurious to our own. Every
manufacturing establishment broken down hclc'
makes room for another across the water. Inc
true policy, however, is to stand by American
labor and foster American manufactures. In
the language of General Jackson in his letter
to Dr. Coleman, in 1921: =
"Heaven smiled upon us, and gave us liberty
and independence. That same Providence has
blessed us with the means Of national indcpcn-
dence and national defence. If we omit or re-
fuse to use the gifts which have been extend
ed to us, we deserve not the continuance OF ms
blessings He has filled our mountains and
our plains with minerals-wih lead, non ana
copper-and given US climate ANA Soi Tor thP
growing of hemp and wool. These beng me
great materials of our nltiona defence, McY
ought to hare ertendct 10 Them aicqHntc amt ta"
protection, that our nun tucturers amt tdborerS
may be piaced in a jar competitions mh hos
Of Europe and thar we may have within our
country supply of those leading and lmp"r-
tant articles 50 essential IN war.
"ln short sir, we have been too long suyccf
10 the po'icy Of BRITISH Mere ants. 1t Is tm
we should become little more Americanllnd
and instead OF feeding pluperS and Ia0orerr ol
ENGLAND, Feed our own; ~ else. in a short tlm",
by continuing our present policy, We shall all
be rendered paupers ourselves.

The Scott and Graham Club Of Nccscyi,'o.{
held a arge and enthusiastic meeting at the oidG
Baptist Church in that Village. last evening
We had the pleasure TO be present, and we
delighted with the zeal and determination ID
the Wings of that section Of the great Iron r,
glon of Northern New York. A dele.atonl
came in from Peru, with banners. and acconl-I
panied by the Peru Wing Gee Club with trl-
colored badges, who enlvened the meeting
with several patriotic songs, which were we'll
sung and vocifcrousy cheered.
The principal speaker Of the occasion was
SAMUEL S. BEAMAH. Esq, Wing candidate for
the Assembly in y ashngton County, who de-
llvercd a most effective, forclhle and telling
speech. lis main topic was the Tariff, appro-
pirate both to the locality and the audience,
and those Of our readers who listened to him
in Burlington need no assurance that he dis
cussed that cardinal interest ofthe whole coull-
try, with great ability, cIcarnoSs and force OF
argument. HIS speech was checred through.
out by body of hardy intelligent and work
ing Wings. who tct the truth of It's indiSput'-
BILE logic and truth
The meeting broke up about ten O'Clock, at
ter song by the Club. ana the heartc~i cheers
for ScoTT AND GRAHAM, Gto 4. SIMMONS
Esq, the tall nted and popular Wing candidate
for Congress, the Speakers, and the Peru Glec
Club.
The Wings Of Northern New York are fair
" aroused, and will dc their part in the glori-
Gus work of arraying the Empire ta'e on tn,

good influence. Mr. BEAMAN speaks in Chm

DEATH OF HENRY CLAY. a

-
This patriot, statesman, and orator has
passed from labor 10 reward. He died al
Washington, Junee9lh, II minutes past IL
O'Clock. Although not unexpected, the
news Of his dea.h spread gloom over Dur
entire country. He stood at the head of the
second generation of the grea. men Of Amsr..
ica, and the loss of no American, save only
the "Falher Of his Country" has been more
sincerely deplored. No man had stronger
friends. or more ardent admirers. His frank
ness alone prevented this nation from hon,
orlng herself by placing The greatest states
man of the age in her Presidential chair
But he chose to be "right rather than Presi-
dent" The office could have conferred no
additional honor upon Mr.. Clay, but would
have greatly elevated The character Of The
people among the nations OF the earth.
lie was not without his enemies-bit,er,
uncompromising, ungenerous enemies. To
all such, we recommend a perusal of the
remarks Of Gen. Cass, in the Senate, on the
announcement Of his death, We hope II
may teach them. when speaking of their
political opponents in future, 10 pay more re-
gard 10 truth.
No greater respect was ever shown to the
mortal remains Of any man than was shown
10 Mr.. Clay. On The receipt of the news
of his death, all the courts in session at the
lime Immediately adjourned, thereby evin.
cling The highest respect for his character as
a lawyer. cotnmiuee of Senators were
appointed TO accompany his remains 10 lhei,
final resting place in Kentucky. In every
large town and city through which they
passed, funeral professions were formed
business was suspended, bells were toled
and immense crowds Of citizens lined lht
streets, manifesling the deepes; sorrow 70
The nations loss,
1t is source of consolation and Joy II
know that such man was prepared 10 die
Mr.. Breckenridge, of Kentucky, in announ
cling his death in the House, related con
Versalion which passed between himsel AM
Mr.. Clay, in which the latter, in his usua
impressive manner declared that he was no
afraid TO die. 81 have, hope, faith, ant
some confidence" said he. 81 do not lhinI
any man can be entirely, certain in regar'
to his future STATE; bu, have an abidin,
trust in The merits and mediation of ou
Savior"
In our next rumbrr, we shall present ou
leaders with an interesting sketch of hi
life and public services, published in al
eastern paper of recent date. But for this
duty as we'll as inclination would prompt
more extended notice al this time.
