The New York papers of the 28ih ult. contain the proceed ings in extenso of the Conven tion of Manufacturers recently assembled in that city. The Convention adjourned on the 27th. They adopted the Re port of a Committee which was appointed to enquire into frauds alleged to have been committed on the revenue, and to recom mend measures for their pre vention in future. Thev nln adopted resolutions to establish ' a National Association, with branches" and nominatinc a committee to invite the manu facturers to appoint dcWntns to meet in New York, in Octo ber next, lor the purpose ofor-t gamzing mat national institu tion. 1 lie Kcport of the com mittee on frauds embodies eve ry ease, real or imaginary, of attempted evasion ot the law, which their industry or ingenu ity could discover. The coun try and the government nrn certainly deeply indebted to tlieir disinterested exertions and researches on this import ant subject. Paying no taxes themselves, the manufacturers have patriotically determined that those who are taxed, and very onerously taxed, shall not escape a single tittle of their tribute, levelling themselves III :ll I Iw llliliict sv.ii.tt-. . ... mi uiu A ii J uot gUU3 Ul UALOr - tion and ummmn v tl charge merchants with gross frauds and impositions, and i the government in "detecting j CU.stS' inor(i Ilce rnore froS8' to exposing, and bringing them toi(Jnve oul the first swnrms.

The; em Recorder and Alabama two arguments most depended Journal. upon by the advocates of the United Slates Bank, are, first, Spontaneous Combustion.... that it provides the means ofi The New York Daily Adverti transmitting mpney to distant'ser states that in cleaning the parts of the country with little1 cabin of the ship Birmingham, or no expense, while a use of on Saturday last, some cotton Stale bank notes for that pur- was used, which became partly pose would subject to a heavy saturated with linseed oil, and discount; and secondly, that iV aer awhile it took fire. It acts as a check on the State; was then determined to try an Banks, and prevents over is-j experiment. A small quantity sues, &c. The first of these ! of cotton was partially diped in arguments, as we think we j linseed oil, and was placed in have shown in a late article, (which has been copied into several papers without com ment) is without force, for the object might be obtained by the establishment of a National Bank of transfer only that is, Vol. VllXo 4(5. for issuing notes for which the value should be deposited, and no others. Every convenience of traffic might be answered by such a bank that is now furn ished by the U. S. Bank, while there would be no monopoly no privileged class drawing in terest from the people's money, as is the case with all chartered banks at present. The other argument in favor of the mam moth monopoly for we cannot call it by a more appropriate name is well answered by the following article. "Sopliistni of corruption. One argument used by the ad vocates tor rechartering the Bank of the United States, is, that it will keep the State Banks within the bounds of justice. 1 his single argument proves all that we wish. It proves that the State Banks are mischievious engines. So it seems, that having one set of petty Tyrants among us we must call in another set to quell or keep them in order. Had we not better destroy the first brood! Wisdom would say yes. Virtue would say yes. Freedom would say yes. What man but a cruzy man, if a mad dog should get into his house, would think of calling in a se cond mad dog to get the first out!
