Thev wha objept i therefore; to the Tariff, arc bound to snow a t ausc strong rnough to outweigh all these a rgumcnis in iis favor. It is no longer rejrirded as s:i unrnnstitu. lional as it was decUred at firL Sune 'cif the political oracles have, changed their creed on this point, ever since the Tariff has grown popular. Certain Democratic orators -and presses, have very loudly r.aud, with rirronto ry enough, wiihin a year p 1st denied that this Tartfl is a Whig measure, and they claimed it lor their own p irly.' They' said "Did not Wright and Buchanan vutc for it in the Son. aej and -could ;you hare, carried il -without tTiemJ" , We answer 't. is true they did vote for it, beeauo tltey were afraid of of. R nciir.g' a very large unJ powerful body in New. York and Pemsylvania, wh 1 .were dc tcrmired top with ttw Whigs in support of the Tariff., ' Bui they endeavored to explain their votes, so as to leave themselves ground to retreat upon hereafter.1 They apologized for these voles 1 said ihrv would not have jrotHLnr that act hntJl'f am" fiiut'a'f'they 4l ivl not vote, there would have. btci qo Ta- riff, and consequently no revenno. to support iho Government. This was the ix;uio Tho next year Mr. 'Wright inde"a speech at Wutertown, for Incidental - frotecuon, ue. kouncing-the Tariff of 1842;. and ho also made. another io tho Senate - sustaining the principles of Gen... MeKiy report, that went hgainst all protection,' except sueh as might jbo got by accident which I think is the true meaning of incidental accidental. . ' - - I A'et noiwi'hstan Jing these backing and fil. lin-s of ihe leaders, certain of lha demoera. evrboth ia Conjjress and out of it, have so committed themselves a year ngo on this point; und they cannot deny the constitution ality of the present Tariff Bat now, as it i settled that the: party are lo g...as a parly against itj'man men, who are not indepen dent enough lo refuse lo be bitted and bridlet for ihe service of the politicians, are very inurh it a loss to find some plausible excuse for their opposition to it. J Tucmj mn, in gen eralj may bo known 'by their outcry, that the Tariff of 1842 is im'iicrfect in its dciails,aud ought' to bo modified. Upon this pica they arn for opvning i:nd "making a hew ooe.;v ; I have never liear-l yclany speculation 01 jie imperfections' of this Tariff. That there ihe are some articles not protected by it which ought to b. protected, I believe. . lint liial ihere is anv uiuresl over protected by it, 1 deny. That act was as' carefully prepared, n thoroi!ldv discussed, and as well digested as anv measure ever need.be. Three or four monilis were employed in lha m tturi ig of it All present opinion an t all past experience, accessible to tins national L-gislature, were duly brought to the aid of lho committe in ar ranging thu bill." liie roost r alight ene-J and patriotic mccjiatuVs, roanufacittrers and mer chants were consulted, und ihe greatest respect show n tu their, suggestions. . lne, people at largo were invited lo give all. the information in their power necessary lo make this bill a good one,. and they did contribute largely. The bill was under discussion, for m-iro than two m tnths in Con.: res, und every body thciefore, who had nn interest in knowing, knew" whit was said and done in reference to it. .

' It is a sufficient solution of the problem of increased impuita. lion to say, that Hie great body of working men,' mechanics hou1 manuf icturers witli their fa iii lies, arc belief off now than they were in 184 1.V In the practical operation of tiiis fact is revealed onojof tho tnosf beaunful fea.' tares of ihe Prttctive System, to was that whatever isfound Inost-bVnificial.lo jhc Do. mrsiic Industry of jlhe country, also becomes most n-eful lo the foreign trade. Our Tariff is so regulated, and, always ought to be so re gulated, as to give a broad field to commerce tu those production which we do not create and to secure to th farmer and mechanic of ihe country a market for every thing he can pnduce. In this division to say nothing of our exports which 0V0 continually increasing. and which now iujcludo a large amount of manuiaciurcs iheiio will btnvs bo sule enough for t nlargrd and prosperous foreign commerce, which will be sustained and regar dr.d by nn equally prosperous and enlarging tiome industry. . - . .
