Hunter said tuii he did nof believe fcat protecnon oenejiit even worn mieresnwnten it seeKS to aid, were t for M other reason than ' that it induces competition and br ings down the level of prices. " ':, , ''Mr. Hunter concluded hy saying that tbe Sen ator trom Kaode lulana nas made an appeal in thennmeof the American' laborer. When he does so he is loq jentsod"J(riit, and, said Mr. Hunter, touches my heart, if nt my head. He, too, bad at heart the interest of tbe'American la borer. Ha would cheapen the axe with which the laborer opera his way in the forest, the hoe with which he wrings from the rvluetant earth a sub sistence for his wifa arid ebild.ren, the coat that covers him from the summer's hea and winter's rigor, tie would cheapen the bolt that secures the sailor's ship, thecordaee that keeps! bis srars in their plaees, and he would open byetery justi fiable means every port on every sea to; his com merce. He would cheapen to the manufactu rer bis food and raiment, and the cost of ' sugar that sweetens the cup that inebriates. ,He would cheapen the iron, and thus extend" the track on which tbe millions speed their waybyj day and by night, in their pursuit of their pleasure or bu siness. In snort, ue would open wide tho door for self development of American industry, a,nd for himself he was willing to bide the result. We apend ihe Courier's admirable i and con clusive commentary oft the pregnant admiision of Senator Hunter, which is as follows i Now this is all we ask.j' Mr. Hunter concedes "protection induces competition and brings down tha level of prices.'' In; tbe name: of common sense, then, why does heroppwe protttion,attbe same time that he paints in snch gliwing colors the benefits to'be derived, by every class, from low prices? His theory Is unanswerable. It reduces prices; and wha. is all-important for the prosperi ty and independence of everv country, it . furni'hes a home market for tbe agriculturist. ; Tbe basis of all national prosperity is agriculture. It is fol ly for the merchf nt to import, and for the manu facturer t" create, if the great coosuminr interest is unable to pay. Hence our '-embarrassment at this day. Our people have bon driven outof our Workshops and compelled to become producers' of agricultural products, instead of consumers. Consequently, there is no home market for our enormous surplus productions. The agricultural interest, therefore, is without means to bny and pay for the import ions-of our merchants; and tbe whole country is depressed. : Rely upon it, it is very foolish for the merchant to import and sell goods to those who cannot pay for "them; and it is equally certain, that without a home market there can be no general prosrity. One fact and a serie-'s fact it is is worth all the theories that the Fro Tnider enn invent. Prior to 1837, the year of tbe famine in I -eland, the little manufacturing State of Massachusetts purchased more barrels of flour in each and every year, from her sister States, than were ever exported from the whole United States to all the ports of the. World in any !one year. ' V ' - ", j . , Let the bonest legislator and the well intentioned citizen pause.and reflect npon this one isolated fact; and then let him connect with it : Mr. Hunter's admission, that "Protection induces competition and brings down the level of prices." Nex,5 let him try to realize what would.be the: effect upon prices if there were Manufactories in :every coun tv in the Union, and how much the agriculturist would b4 benefitted by selling his products .at his door to feed' the persons employed in. manufac tures instead of sending his cereals thousands of miles lor a market, the cot of. transportation .on which leaves him no return for his labor. Give us orotection and vou eive us a home market for" our produce, and manutacturers tt consume it ; and in its train, according to Mr4 Hunr, comes competiticrt and low pri-s for all n.Knuctured articles. A prosperous, flourishing people is the necessary consequen'-e ; and soch a p)pulatin in sure to com'nefce a rich and bounteous reward for its enterprise. , .

Times. ; ; ' '; Another strange, though by no' means surpris ing, turn in the Mexican wheel, is foreshadowed in. our special idispatch from! Washington this morning. Our Correspondent learns. On what he considers excellent authority, "that two Commis sioner have been dispatched to St Thomas by Mi ramon, with instructions to invite Santa Anna again to take pharge of the Government. It ia believed that England and France are at the bot tom of this movement. Meantime Mr. Buchan an is as undecided as ever as to the course proper to pursue with rfgard to Mexico. Senor Mat has not yet arrived in Washington, and the ques tion of his reception as the Minister Juarez is not i formally tested. - It is now considered more than . likely, however, that the President will not com mit himself by recognizing him, but will adopt tht easier course of non-action,, and thus allow the European Powers to do as they please. ' , The intelligence from Vera Cruz, brought bv the Tennessee, which left that port on the . 9th instant attests the serious injury inflicted upon the Liberal cause by the exactions and dictation of the French and "English fleets. At': the very moment when Miramon is advancing npon the place, the Constitutionalists, Who are to defend it, find themselves stripped of resources, and the mer- chants are prostrated by the high tariff thus im posed upon trade. At this -critical moment that erdigbted statesman -Senor Lerdo de Tejada, has accepted the place of Financial Secretary in the Juarez Cabinet, and may contrive to meet the emergency, The certainty that a massacre and a forced loan . "Would follow the entrance of Miramon into VersL Cruz, is the only thing, apparently that ' can save it from, capitulation tbe moment he ap pears at the gates Intelligence from the interior is without interest, j j The foilowing eloquent, earnest and effec tive address was delivered at a recent Democratic caucus in the town of Sanford, Broome county, New York, by a man who had been an inmate of the county jail on an indictment for murder.
