have taken your paper from its com.

pccially useful Tor young men, ~ it is a correct
| exponent ol lcHersonian Democracy, and the
| principle OF the American Constitution. | was
especially interested in your several essays upon
| the Reciprocity Treaty with the Hawaiian
| Islands, for, although as son OF Pennsyl.
,ania, am an advocate for judicious tariff,
with incidental protection TO manufacturers, |
DO not deem i, wise craftsmanship to multiply
manufactures without regard TO market fof
lheit sale and consumption. The people OF
I Hawaiian Islands under this treaty are pur.
chasing, annualls, many millions OF the pro.
| ducts OF the United States, and no one state is
more highly benefited by this commerce than
/ Pennsylvania. She has sent TO them in the
last siN years, millions Of dollars in machinery,
bar iron and manufactured goods. At this
very moment two new iron ships are about to
leave Philadelphia for Honolulu to be placed
on the line with san Francisco, at a COS, to the
proprietors Of one million Of dollars. Such
markets are not opened to Us every day"
