a dead loss in the foreign mar

tages, and many others that
might be mentioned, will ulti
mately compensate to the full
extent or not the loss to the ma
nufacturers on the reduction of
the duties, certain it is, that we
Jiavo approached a point at
which a great change cannot be
much longer delayed; and that
the more promptly it may be
met, the less excitement there
will be, and the greater leisure
and calmness for a cautious and
skilful operation in making the
trausition; and which it becomes
those more immediately inte
rested duly to consider. Nor
ought they to overlook, in con
sidering the question, the differ
ent character of the claims of
the two sides. The one asks
from the Government no ad
vantage, but simply to be let u
lone in the undisturbed posses
sion of their natural advanta
ges, and to secure which, so far
as was consistent with the other
objects of the Constitution, was
one of their leading motives in
entering into the Union; while
the other Bide claims, for the
advancement of their prosperity, tin
positive interference of the Govern
ment. In such cases, on every prin
ciple of fairness and justice, such in
terference ought to be restrained with
in limits strictly compatible with the
natural advantages of the other. lie
who, looking to all of the causes in
operation, the near approach of the
final payment of the public debt; the
growing disaffection and resistance to
the system, in so large a section of
the country; the deeper principles on
which opposition to it is gradually
turning; must be, indeed, infatuated
not to see a great change is unavoida
ble; and that the attempt to elude or
much long-r delay it, must finally but
increase the shock, and disastrous
consequences which may follow.
In forming the opinions I have ex
pressed, I have not been actuated by
an unkind feeling towards our manu
facturing interest. I now am. and
ever have been decidedly friend I v to
them, though I cannot concur in all of
the measures which have been adopt
ed to advance them. I believe con
siderations higher than any question
of mere pecuniary interest, forbids
their use. But subordinate to these
higher views of policy, I regard the
advancement of mechanical and che
mical improvements in the arts with
feelings little short of enthusiasm; not
only as the prolific source of nation
al and individual wealth, but as the
great means of enlarging the domain
of man over the material world: and.
thereby, of laying the solid founda
tion of a highly improved condition
of society, morally and politically. I
fear not that we shall extend our "pow
er too far over the great agents of na
ture; but on the contrary, I consider
such enlargement of our power, as
tending, more certainly and power
fully, to belter the condition of our
race, than any one of the many pow
erful causes now operating l0 that re
sult. With these impressions, I not
only rejoice at the general progress
of the arts in the world, but in their
advancement in our own country;
and, as far as protection can bo inci
dentally afforded, in the fair and hon
est exercise of our constitutional pow-
ers I Iiinlr
- as m. nave always

with the security, indenend enc inii

want ol arguments and illustrations to

in both, that it would require a vol

the object in view, compelled to pre
sent them.
With every caution on my part, I
dare not hope, in taking the step I
lave, to escape the imputation of im
proper motives; though I have, with
out reserve, freely expressed my opi
nions, not regarding whether they
might or might not, be popular. I
have no reason to believe that they
are such as will conciliate public fa
vor, but the opposite; which I great
ly regret, as I have ever placed a high
estimate on the good opinion of my
fellow citizens. Hut, be that as it
may, I shall, at least, be sustained by
feelings of conscious rectitude. I
have formed my opinions after the
most careful and deliberate examina
tion, with ail the aids which my rea
son and experience could furnish; I
have expressed them honestly and
fearlessly, regardless of their effects
personally; which, however interest
ing to me individually, are of too lit

estimate, where the liberty and hap

involved.

think, friends or foes will allow that
we have effected this change; but we
do assure our friends, that at no peri

of unshackled prices were we in great
er want of assistance than at the pie

men are leaving no means untried for
effecting our ruin, that they may re
vive the old system: our credit and
character are assailed in every shape,
our importations waj laid and stepped
in every instance where threats are
sufficient to intimidate the manufac
turers from supplying us; in fine,
no vexation or trouble which the ma
lice of men could devise has been ne
glected in this struggle to subdue us.
We once more call upon every friend
of a free trade to come up to our sup

no cause to repent of their liberality.

the following plan to his friends in

numbers G drawn ballots. The
chief prizes are $50,000, 40,000,
30,000, 20,000, 10.000, 5S80, &c.
It is the intention of S. J. Sylvester
to club
25 packages whole tickets, 300 300
35 do halves, 420 210
40 do quarters.

100 shares, each 642 80, 4,280
Dcudcting S42S0 from $10,080,
leaves 65S0O, divided into 100
shares, the greatest possible loss will
be $5S each share.
It is certain that the tickets will
draw more than the above named
sum, but this amount is mentioned as
they cannot bring less. To those
who remit S5S in notes or prizes, a
regular certificate of each package and
combination numbers will be forwar
ded. The tickets will be lodged in
the bank till after the drawing, and
the prize money immediately divided
among the shareholders. Such a
chance seldom occurs to obtain the
splendid capitals. The plan has met
with so much approbation in New
York and Philadelphia, that already
43 shares have been taken.
Messrs. Yates & M 'In tyre, the
Managers, will, with each certificate,
give a guarantee for the payment of
all for the prizes.

no connexion with any other office in

has permission to refer to the Mana
