Polk'a speeches and addresses thai J u. 1 in
my late canvass wth him. (schVs I knew' to
be genuine,) and find the extracts to bo fairly
made; and, with tne exception" of such im
material and typographical errors ts Usually
atteod a re.print; not at aU effecting the sense
or meaning of the author, It js literally cor.
rect. I not only know this plication to be
aTrue exposition of iho opinions of Cot Polk
off ' the subject of !ho tariff, from comparing
it with his published opinions, but. I know it
from having! j hearijl them from his own lips,
day after dayji for months in'succession. r To
attempt to make James K. Polk ihe friend of
a protective tariff can only excite the ridicule
and contempt! of those who know him
. It is most aitonishing that his friends should
undertake to jdeceive and mislead, the public
mind on a subject: of so much ' importance,
and .the detection of which is "so certain, 1
can but regard the effort that is making in
your state to pass James K. Polk off as the
friend and advocate of protection as an out
rage which, for impudence and falsehood, Is
unparalleled in the j! history of parly warfare.
It is a gross attempfat fraud one that would
disgrace the jvcriest party hack. ; But, dis
graceful as 13 this attempt on tho part of the
friends and supporters of Col. Polk, I can but
regard. his position as equally disreputable.
If truth,. fairness, and justice is his object, as
.. i.v! .... :, . m w " ,1 t:
it ought to bejof one aspiring to the high and
dignified posijion he seeks, why does he not
speak out like a man? Why are his lips
sealed as with the stillness of death! Where
is that boldness and independence that ever
characterizes a man conscious of his own In.
tegrity and the corectness of his principles
and conduct? ! Possessing the power nnd the
t lis '1 i . A 1 -
means ann naving ,oeen respeciiuuy asicea to
uuu ui an citing luisuiiuou auu uuuocciving
his countrymen, and refusing to do so, makes
him par lie epscrimihis, nnd should consign
him to the same unenviable distinction. '
Col. Polk cannot, will not, dare not, deny
that he has always opposed the protective pol
icy. This has been his boast. He has nev
er ceased to denounce the tariff of 1642 in
terms unmeasured ; and yet he observes a
most dignified silence, permitting truth to
be crushed to earth, land falsehood raised in
its stead and all, that some political advan
tage may ensue to himself! . 'f
I repeat now what I have frequently writ-
ten, ppoken,and published, and which has
never been denied by Col. Polk or any of his
friends in this state, that Col. Polk at all times,
during both of my canvasses, with him, op
posed, denounced, and condemned the prin
ciple of protection, and during the last cam
paign the tariff of 1842 received his most ua
qualified condemnation. To this statement I
pledge my reputation as a man of honor, and
challenge Coli Polk or any of his friends to
deny it. If apy friend of protection, orof
the tariff of 1842, is prepared to .vote for
him, believing! that he is any. other than the
unqualified opponent of this system, if he
shall be elected)) he will discover that he has
been deceived land misled, and find his only
comfort in cursing his folly and credulity. C
I had a voice that would jreach every city
town, and hamlet in Pennsylvania, it should
be raised to"warn every freeman of the im
pending danger, and invoke him to spurn and
despise with a freeinans .spirit the base at
tempts that are made to seduce him, from his
fidelity to his principles, and lead him to the
support of a man whose principles arc at
war.with.the best interests of his country. , J
cannot aouot that the intelligence -01 ;your
citizens will enable therri to "delect this fraud j
and, when detected, I know their virtue and
integrity .will at once yput tho'.broad'sea! of
condemnation on it and its authors. '
