But whether these advan 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 dne, that sound policy, connected with the security, indenend enc inii peace of the country, rcrpjires them to be protected, but that we cannot go a single step beyond without ieo pardizing our peace, our harmonv, 'anil cur liberfv: considerations of in- statement on the many and important ' noints on which 1 h.ivn been romnnl- ,, t .

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 tle importance to be taken into the estimate, where the liberty and hap piness of our country are so vitally involved.

They return iholr must rordial thanks to their friends in the Southern States, for their support in the persecution now carrying on against them, for their re fusal to join a combination in fixing one tariff of prices for Crockery, throughout the trade. It is mainly attributable to the influence of our Southern friends that we have been enabled to survive thus far, in this most trying situation; cxposeu 10 me combined influence and capital ol the whole trade, endeavoring to cfiect our ruin and exnulsion from business. Wo pledge ourselves to our friends to give them every satisfaction in our power as regards the quality of our goods, the excellence of our packers and the lowness of our prices fur cash or rilv nffpnlnnros and in return, so- licit from them a continuance of their ' 7 . . patronage, and particularly request those who have influence with their friends to exert it in our behalf, as we trust the cause is one they are all in terested in, and much benefit will ac crue to us from their friendly acts in this way. It has been said, the com bination was broken op. As it re gards prices, this is true, and all, we think, friends or foes will allow that we have effected this change; but we do assure our friends, that at no peri od since we commenced our system of unshackled prices were we in great er want of assistance than at the pie sent moment. This combination of 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 port, &. pledge ourselves to give them no cause to repent of their liberality. T. J.

Sylvester to club 25 packages whole tickets, 300 300 35 do halves, 420 210 40 do quarters. 480 120 Tickets, 630 630 tickets at Sl6, . 10,0S0 100 shares at S100 SO, 10,0S0 630 tickets must draw 4,2S0 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. Q-S. J. SYLVESTER wishes it to be impressed particularly on the minds of country friends, that he has no connexion with any other office in this city.

Sylvester begs to remark to those who do not know him, that he has permission to refer to the Mana gers, Messrs. Yates & MTntyre; and also, if required, he can give the names of the first houses throughout the United States and the Canadas. Many will not wish to risk so much, S. J.
