Let us ' now examine and see if Vhere be any essential irercncein principle between the sentiments ! conveyed by these two, moftos. : . U- tfThe State Rights party entertain' the Opinion thai liberty Is the great end and aiin of he in- l r i til ;s (t- fditution of the Without libertv. Constitutions andrUnions i would be illle mockery, and an insult io the common sense of freedom. Liberty, therefore, is en-titled to the nrst piaee in tne ranK ot the glorious trio which graces the frdnt of our Banner. Next comes the Constitution. By that instrumentfliberty is preserved, or was . intended so to be by its framers, from all des potic encroachments, or unauthorized usurpa tions on the part of the -Federal agent: acting by. thq Executive, Legislative, or Judicial branch of the Government. Union, though last, not the less valued, is, the blessed fruit of an observance of the Constitution'. No other Union but such as results from, an adherence to the Constitution, could by possibility long xist.f - For 'what is Union Nothing but the harmony, friendship, and brotherly affection existing between. political families, founded up on n. conmunity'pf interests, of burdens, and benefits, and regulated by mutual sympathies and kind feelings. Such a Union happily sub sisted in our country until within tie last few years; . Vould to God we could say the same at the present period. Can Union, or any thing that deserves the name, exist between parties -where some unlawfully oppress others, grind lliem 1p, powder, and treat them with. contume ly and tyranny ? It is impossible to imaffine U I And yet such is the Unioh which is placed in ine; ironi.ranK. in,me maniiesio reierrea io, ns wc shall undertake to show. - In that instrument Union stands first. Aye, - such a Union as is desired by that party, must staind first, or it could not stand at alL It is a "Union, which leaves the Constitution arid Liberty in hcj back ground.

It Is the Union bv which the strong can put fetters n ithe weak, by which thepowertul can plunder he powerless. It is the Union which subsists jetween the highwayman and the plundered traveller. No wonder, then, that it should oc- -an System. But how do we know that this is :t lie Union so highly honored in this manifesto Ve answer, that it is admitted so to be, in the -Hy quotation itself. "The preservation of those great interests (ors which the Government was established," can only have reference to the great interest of the Tariff and Internal Improvements. The rally is to be made for their preservation, -and if they cannot be pre served -without the usurpation of undelegated power, as it is very clear they cannot be, J it follows, that the Union thus celebrated, is such a. one as whave described. And iff so, of what avail is the Constitution ? What becomes of li berty 1 The former is a dead letter, a mere piece oipvaste-' paper held up to be; laughed at by those who are pocketimr the fruits of this erlo rious Union. The latter, is a burlesque upon human freedom, and is no more entitled to the appellation which belongs lo the chief element ot the rights of man, than tne liberty enioved by the ffalley slave. I " Banner of the Constitution : g' - - r . i DIALOGUE Pennsylvania Farmer and an Iron Master. I am glad to see you. I have just finished read ing tne peuiion ot the rmladelphur Black smiths presented to Congress, last winter, and the Report made to the Senate by the Commit tee of which Gen. Ilayne vas Chairman; and it has bothered me prodigiously to know how we American System men are to get over the jarguments and facts there brought forward. I Iron-Master. Oh., my dear friend, it is all stuff it is all theory. These stupid blacksmiths dont understand the. business. They have un dertaken to meddle with a .subject which is be yond. their comprehension ; and, what they call argument, is mere fudge, I he American Sys tem is too. deep a science.for a parcel of chuek- le-heads to give an opinion about. It is a gflori ous System, which is carrying the nation to the '"guest pinnacle of prosperity. Has not Great lintam become enriched bv it ? Do not all the wise nations of Europe pursue it most rigo rously And is not air South America fast fol lowing me example ? ' ,whw ;retisi s: r" could do to 0reentftT'itm, of .a". 1 i ' "uioea some misffiv mtrs about the nolir.v nt . . "ilo5T latter less than SSmaking an average of a 45it folls that the tax is equal to 06? per centum upon the first cost. Iron Master. AH this is true, but I see no thing queer in that. ) This duty, ortax, as the nullifiers call it, you know, is put on for the "protection of domestic industry ; and sqrely there is nothing injurious to the public in that. AH domestic industry ought to be protected a- gainst ioreign competition, and you know, our iron-mines could ndt be worked if the British were allowed to sell us their iron 837 a ton cheaper than the present price. i Farmer. Well, but, neighbour, I do not see the matter precisely as you do. I remember, right well, that old Robert Coleman, in Lan caster County, made the bulk of his fortune by his irWmines. when the tax was only7 to 15 per centum ; and I do not see any reason why all the fertile mines in the country could not be worked to equal advantage now!, under the same tax, as well as in former days. Perhaps the barren onjes would have.lo be j abandoned, but I do not see any more reason why I should have to pay a tax tp enable you to dig iron ore out of a worn-out mine, than that' you should have to pay a tax f;o enable me to raise corn out of one of my worn-out fields.: As to this notion of yours about protecting domestic industry against foreign competition, it sounds very clever, and j very patriotic, but, some how or other, it does appear to me,: that, if I can buy iron for my plough-shares, axes, hoes, spades, shovels, harrows, pick-axes, crow-bars, traces, chains, wheel-tire, horse-shoes, reaping- hooks, scythes, s saws, hatchets, hammers, scales, steelyards, gimlets, augers, nails,screws, locki, bars, bolts, hinges, lightening-rods, pump-handles and rods, at two dollars per hun dred less than I now pay, it woud be just so much saved in my pocket. Iron-Master. How do you make it out to be two dollars per hundred, when, according to your own calculation, the dutyf is only one dollar and fifty cents per hundred weight ? Farmer. The difference is made up by the merchant, who makes me pay him a profit on the amount of the duty paid to the Govern ment, and I am not quite sure that the differ ence is not greater than I have stated it to be. iron Master. Well, but do you see, that, by paying $37 a-ton more for iron,: jou create a home market for your agricultural produce, and get a proportionably high price for it ? Farmer. I cannot say that I see any such thing. In the first place, if the men employed in digging and hauling iron ore, in cutting wood, in melting the ore!, and in various processes of biaking iron, were not employed in that busi ness they would be employed in something else, and would still have to eat. Iron Master! Allow me to interrupt you: they would all have to eat, it is true, but some of them would turn farmers, and would jrave agricultural produce to sell, instead of buying it, which would interfere with your market. Farmer. This might be true, but for every customer we should Jose at home we should gain two abroad, and the loss of the home mar ket would be more than made up by the for eign market. But, even supposing that there would be a loss of a customer in the way you mention, it could not produce any visible effect uportthe market price of produce. It is esti mated that the hole number of persons in the United States who derive employment from the making of iron, does not exceed eleven thousand, which is in proportion to the whole population as one is to one thousand. So that, if the whole bundle of them were j to turn far mers, the effect produced upon the price of pro. duce would not be perceptible. But, even ad mitting, for the sake of argument, that a fall would take place, I will leave it to yourself to say whether it could possibly bef1 equal to the amount we should fain by getting cheap iron. I now pay $ 100 for a ton of Iron, or, what is the same ;thiug, I pay 100 bushels of wheat. If there was.no tax on iron, I should get the same ton for $60, or t0 bushels of wheat. 1 will now trust to your candor to say whether I would not gain more by the fall in iron, than h should lose by the loss of demand for my pro duce. Iron Master, j Why, since you have put . it to my candor, I must acknowledge that there is an appearance of argument in your remarks, iwhich requires some consideration, and I shall accordingly refer to my friends Niles and Ca rey for a solution. In the mean time I " beg you to suspend your opinion upon this point until the next time I see you. i We have lately heard of a very ingenious device. by which some gentlemen, the warm support ters of the American System, nave contriveo to make his sooty Majesty perform thii adroit evolution. It will be recollected that these American System people .profess ;to be the excellent friends of the wool-grower; tney would have the country "independent" of jail foreign nations: they 'would have the wool raised, sheared dyed, spun j woven, fulled and finished, all in this counirv, and they question the patriotism of the man who wears a coat of imported cloth. Now, the duties on imported wool are, it is well known, very high. Fifty per cent on the appraised value and in addition to this four cents a pound, make the duty on raw wool equal, at least, to 60 per cent. But the duty pn woollen yarn from a foreign coun try is much lower, being only 33 per cent. ThesW excellent friends of the wool-grower therefore take advantage of this feature of the tariff; they purchase English yarn cleaned, carded, spun and dyed in the English factories, by English labor and English capital, both of which are cheaper than ours tney n put into the loom and the next minute it comes out American cloth. Not only do they pay a less duty than if they imported the same amount of wool, besides getting it spun and dyed cheap er than they could do it themselves, but thre is a saving in another respect. In going through the various processes of preparation for the loom, raw wool loses very greatly; we have heardthe waste estimated at a third. The importer of yarns has, therefore, an advantage of between forty and fifty per cent over the importer of raw wool, and this the manufac turers understand perfectly. 7 In the mean time the wool-grower looks on and wonders that while the shuttles are going so busily his wool does not bear a higher price, little suspecting that the devil instead of being out of the way, is only whipped round the stump.

In the first place, they say that the tax upon hammered bar iron, such as comes from Sweden and Russia, is, 622 40 per. tori, and upon rolled bar iron, such as comes from England, is, $ 37 per ton making an average An "Tell old proverb has said, and said truly, me whose comoanv von kepn. and T will tell youvhai you are?" In the same way, We think, the editor of a newspaper may be known; not so I well by his editorial dicta, as, by his general selections,. We have observed, and with some surprise, that the Anti-Convention papers of this, state, although they declare. we believe without exception, their hatred of me lann, and tne American System generally, very seldom, if ever, publish articles from the strong and argumentative anti-tariff papers of me country. me Banner of the Constitution for instance, which is, without doubt, the most powerful advocate of Free Trade now published in the United States, the arguments of which -even its enemies dare not attack, is rarely, if ever, quoiea oy the papers referred. Why ik it so ? Do these editors suppose that the bare assertion of their opposition to the American Systeni, will produce the same influence on a rea ding, or a thinking people, as the republica tion of sound argument,, undeniable fact, and practical illustration? We are unable to an -answer the question ; but the fact is incontro vertible, that these gentlemen are much less in tent on placing; the absurdities of the restric tive system before the eyes of their readers, than on crying down what they regard as the ultra-ism of their own state. They do not be lieve that the policy of the country is unsettled, and that, therefore, it is in vain to attack it: because they have been constantly ringing in our ears, doctrine that the restrictive system will be modified or abandoned, by Congress. We would lam hope, that the proverb may hot apply to them inversely, as it would induce us to think, that they avoid cobpany which they do not like.

While the opposition! are running to and fro, an(3 misrepresenting the late quarrel, between two prominent individuals, late members of the Cabinet, we would bring home to their very convenient memories and very; delicate sensi bilites some matters of grave import for their special consideration. i 1 Did the opposition consider the country dis graced rwhen Mr. Adams, secretary of State, engaged in an angry newspaper dispute With the Editors of the National Intelligencer, char ging them with mutilating the public dejeu ments? j Did the opposition consider the country dis graced when Mr. Adams, Secretary of State, replied to a note of Henry Clay, his envious rival, threatening to expose certain transactions at Ghent ? I Did the opposition consider the country jdis graced-E-when Mr. Clay, a member of tfa Kentucky Legislature, insulted and fought s duel with Mr. Humphery Marshall, a member of the same Legislature, for some expression used in the house? Did the opposition consider the country dis graced when Mr. CLAY Speaker of tne House of Representatives of the U. S. published; his Bullying Card, threatening to hold the writer of a2i anonymous letter, a member of Congress " responsible to all the laws which govern and regulate the conduct of men of honor''1 and pro nouncing " the member whoever he may be, a base and infamous calumniator, a dastard and a liar ?" Did the opposition consider the country dis graced when Mr. Clay, Secretary of State, challenged Mr, Randolph, a Senator of the U. S. for words spoken in debate ? Did the opposition consider the country dis graced when Mr. Clay, Secretary of State, had thus violated the laws of GOD and man, dishonored his high-station, and outrageously attempted to destroy the freedom of speech in the Senate, by calling to account and shooting at one of the members, for words spoken in de bate? It is to personal and private matters, that the art and running of the opposition would direct public attention. They know, that the affairs of the nation have prospered in the hands of President Jackson. They know that the na tion never was so much honored and respected abroad. They, know that the country is enjoy ing an unexampled state of prosperity &nd they see in this very prosperity death to eve ry honest and reasonable hope of palming themselves upon people, who once tried them, and found them wanting. j But with the gambler's desperation, they calculate on the partial dissensions of a dis solved Cabinet, to work them into favor and power. But it will not do ! The People have not so soon forgotten the Adams and Clay ad- ministration, lhey, have not torsrottcn their almost annihilated commerce and trade, and the grass-grown streets of that day. They have not forgotten the disgraceful, the vindictive quarrels, of Mr. Clay ; neither have they forgot ten the petty and contemptible squables of Mr. Adams. JUSTICE. PROVISIONS, Bacon.

Set ' I command, and Captain of my Schooner "John.' "ailing Irom the Port of JNewbern, Jorth Carolina. I employed him in the . month of March, 1830, to take command of the said Schooner upon shares,--he to victual and man the vessel, and the profits, if any there were, to be divided between him and mj self. Since the month of Decembr last past, I havp neither received one cent or one jirie from him, noti withstanding he has been constantly engaged ill profitable freights. From rumors which had reached me of his conduct, added to my personal knowledge of his unfaithfulness to the trust I had reposed in him, I requested the . Captain of the Revenue Cutter Dal las to takef essession of my vessel, should she come into Ocracoke Bar, This request ha6 been complied with, and the Captain of the Cutter, in accordance with my directions, took possession of the Schooner. Captain Douglass, in opposition to every entreaty to come from the Bar in the Schooner and fiave a fair and honorable -settlement with his fwner, declined doing so, and has absconded. No doubt exists on my mind, that his object, when he took charge of the vessel, was to appropriate the proceeds of the freights to his own individual use, without any intention ot rendering an account to me of the same. In conclu sion, I have to forewarn the public against his artifices, believing him to be capable of any breach of trust He is a native of Currituck County, N.
