Even if our own merchants were to re duce' their importations ithin thqise bounds which -our means of. payment would require, this would afford no secu rity ; as' our markets would probably con tinue to be, as they have .been, inundated with goods consigned - by v foreign mer chants, which would perpetuate the ca- ujious situation into wnicn our country is plunged. v . .-'.. :' .'.
