Appro vea warcn , iai. From the Washington Globe '-' CONFESSIONS OF THE OPPOSITION. The display oihomt prosperity made in the ar ticle below, given from the Boston Ceutmel, is in I perfect contrast with the prophetic horrors fore boded in Mr. Clay's Baltimore speech. What . an unlooked for consummation must this be to the readers of the Centinel, upon whom it has constantly inculcated the belief that r the most fatal consequences impended, and would sure ly spring from the election of the " Militdty Chieftain ! ! How entirely has the Editor for gotten, in the enthusiasm of the moment the melancholy Jeremiads that the Cla press is. bound by compact with each other, to sing in concert? The strain of joy in the Centinel is' certainly out of harmony with the general dirge of the Nationals. And taken in connec-j tion with the admission we quote of another; friend of Mr. Clay, lately returned from Europe,! that the nation never stood so high abroad, it seems the unhappy opposition are likely to be in a most distressed condition; their case being rendered desperate by itrhome prosperity1 and the high reputation of our government among the foreign nations of the earth. From the Boston Centinel. , HOME PROSPERITY Mrhile the old world appears to be oppres sed with tyrranny, agitations and sanguinary wars, and her people, like Marius at Carthage, are contemplating the ruin3 about them, it is cheering to every citizen of this free Republic to look round upon the general state of pros- periiy, wmcn we enjoy, uur large uities re semble the same Carthage in the days of pros perity, described by the Poet as presenting all the bustle and activity of a vast Hive. Our commerce active and profitable, our mahu- ; factories fast redeeming their characters, and rising superior to the losses of past years. Our mechanics find plenty of employment and our farmers find a ready market for their produce. From one end of the Country to the other, we hear of general rejoicing for the returning prosperity. . We have rarely seen Boston so active and busy as during the present season. All kinds of business have been " looking up." A ship wright was in our office a few days ago, com plaining that he had more work on hand than he could perform in his yard, and that he had to pay journeymen three dollars a day. Many new buildings are going on in all quarters of the city, and mechanics generally find " ready employment. Rents have raised 25 per cent, and real estate generally has risen and is still on the rise. Such a state of things is exceed ingly cheering, and has put to flight the ideas which were not uncommon last year, that the grass was about to spring up in our streets. COMMERCE. Business has been reviving to a wonderful degree for several months past throughout the whole country, and our large commercial ports especially have become full of bustle and activ ity. The price of shipping has risen0 rapidlj-, and consequently the price of materials and the. ages of the ship carpenter. Every body seems impressed with the idea that "good times are coming round again' We hope so with all our hearts. But what are the causes of this increased commercial prosperity? Are they merely transient, or are they such as are likely to endure ? The causes are various. . Something is doubtless owing to the actual and . prospectivei position of the principal European powers. When those who have lately been producers abroad are turned into consumers, when immense masses of men in Europe are taken from the soil and the work-shop and en listed in the camp, the deficit occasioned ia-this1-way must be supplied by drafts upon foreigA pro- " duce. Much of our prosperity may be set down to more flattering causes and those which we have it in our power to make permanent, at least, to a considerable degree. The modifica tion of the Tariff, reducing the duties on teasV molasses, coffee and salt, hashed to an increased demand for these articles and put a stop to the smuggling of them. The opening of the W.; In- ; dia British ports is unquestionably another very effective cause of the new spring which;-,, has been given to, commercial enterprise. In spite of all the opposition has said about the the worthlessness of this : -trade, fifty .vessels within the last two months have cleared from the srWleport of New York for the British ColoniaTporte. There is another cause not so j obvious in its operation, but most importan in its results, which has powerfully contributed to bring about this increased commercial activi;- j ty. We allude to the confidence which is fejt in .the administration, with regard, to our com- , . mcrcial relations. Our merchants see that the ! present Administration has. adopted a policy : toward foreign nations, so sincere amicable, and upright, that it can hardly fail to inspire , confidence and establish an improved inter course between ourselves and all foreign na tions, and hence they feel encouraged to enter ' into commercial speculations and embark.their capital in commercial enterprises. Again there is no danger, under this administration, that any new burdens will be laid on commerce,: as the whole drift of the administrationi thus far. has been to take off instead of to lay on high duties ; and whatever may be the wishes of the manufacturers, it isplain that they are too muci alarmed for the permanence of the monopolies they already enjoy, to hazard the indignation of the people bv anv aitempt to extend their already enormous privileges. Every change which may take place aflecting commerce . be favorable, not hostile. Jaszern arffw THE TARIFF. The friends of this abominable measure are attributing to its influence most oi r iv which the U. States are enjoying. -lhey remember to forget' the peculiar advantages it which we possess in so roa u.vi v , & choose to ascribe to this single circumstance all the fruits of so manyother blessings Tnev throw out of view tjie liberty we enjoy and tho i i r. j 3d i tt - : B tt 4 - - i ,.4
