nx. NATiONAL INDUSTRY,
. (Continued.) y
In adopting a new 5 system of policy, in
iheUntted States; both internal and ex
ternal, two considerations should be kept
in view: . , '1 - , ... . . .. .
First What1 hostile and prohibitory
regulations now, exisl, in foreign countries,
aeainst the commerce of this country, and
what are their bearings and-eflects upon
our prosperity :. '; ' !
Secondly VVh4 will most effectually
tend to tounte'rvai-;tliJB effects of these
prohibitions and restraints, and encourage
and protect the industry of the country
embracing agriculture, manufactures, in
land trade, forergnp commerce and the
general cultivation if rur resources.
As to the first poust, we would ask those
wfco oppose 'such roeasures as will go to
protect ourselves, tcf take a candid a lew
of the policy of e ther nations, towards the
MTnitirl ifatM. VVIierC IS were. a. uauu"
to which we can send an1 article of domes
tic manufacture, tBt upon -terms that
umnld be ruinous ?; ?On what shore can
the fruits of, American skill and industry
be landed; without J meeting a hostile ta
riff England, France, Russia, Spain,
and the German Sfaxes, are equally jea
lous and rigorous when an article of fo
reign manufacture Interferes tfith then
own ingenuity 'and ! labor. It is a policy
that distinguishes their political history.
It plants an impassable barrier around
their frontiers. But we shall betold, that
It is immaterial what the tariff foreign
nations may be, as to the importation of
I manufactured articles, since; this country
alone, depends on the export of the raw
material. This position brings us direct
ly to the question what is the state of
foreign markets, and what are the ad
vantages which we now derive, or which
we have a prospect of deriving, hereaf
ter, for the sale of our agricultural pro
ducts ? .-' . ' . ' ' '. '
While 4 we had ' the carping trade of
continental Europe, and bur vessels were
rmnloved in convevine commodities from
the coloniM to the mother countries, nd.
in occupying those channels cf commerce
from which other nations were excluded ;
which the products of our soil were de
manded to aid in sustaining the. armed
millions of : Europe, , as well, as ' millions
whose employments were broken up by j
the .general contusion ot internal, ana ex
ternal relations ; we were enabled to sus
tain the importation of foreign fabrics, and
to tolerate the neglect of the home; mar
ket. Bat the commercial relations of the
world are permanently changed. Consu
mers have become producers. The soil
of Europe is cultivated with new ardour,
and the protection of home industry is the
ruling system of European; policy. The
eld world is every day becoming, more
productive in agriculture, while labor-saving
machinery is extended .far and wide.
The vigorous policy of the Russian Em
peror, which reaches the borders of Asia,
the extension of the British.possessions in
India, and the fertile sources of commerce
opening in South-America, denote a still
mere radical revolution in the maritime
world. Do these facts point out the Uni
ted States as the future granaryof ,na
tiens ? l)d they not rather indicate, that
the foreign markets for our produce must
diminish, instead f increasing?
A. glance of the state of our foreign
markets, for the last two or three years,
will cast much light on this subject. The
raw materials exported from the . United
States may, be principally included in the
articlesot Cotton, Tobacco, Rice, Bread
stuffs salted Provisions, Ashes and Lum
ber; What countries. afford a consump
tion and demand for these articles, and
how are 4they, received? Let-. us-begin
with England. From necessity. sue takes
cur cottonr tobjeco, ad rice to thef extent
that they are not supplied to her by her
colonies and by South-America. , Flour is
prohibited from. Great-Britain and frcm
her. colonies, . including .the AV'est . India
markets. Bread stuffs and salted provi
sions arealso prohibited both, from the
mother country and the colonies. v Pot and
pearl ashes are received under a restric
tive duty that protects the 'supplies from'
tie Canadas: As to lumber, the'dutyex
eludes it as well from the mother Country
as from-her cokinies. The articles for
merly consumed by France, that werethe
proaucts ot our sou, were cotton, rice, to
oacco; anaasues. . In consequence of the i
- .v. jvj.uiatiuus, rctauaiory upon our
Tonnage laAv passed at" the last session of
Congress to regulate trade, the,, direct
commerce in thtse articles is destroyed.
The markets afforded to us by Spain and
Portugal aryery different now frcm what
they . were during the wars in Europe,
hen we exported.provisions to the pen
insula an immense amount Agricul ;
Jure is now attended to in these regions,
jpatn, by, a recent law, prohibits com and'
thread stuffs of every kind. .The consc
ience is, ..that -the, former demand for
5ur products has ceased, s to the ether

mh?virom rforegoing Article , the
rohibued and restricted items, and see
i what remains to send to foreien markets,
to pay forimpoftat'on of foreign goods,'
equal to our demands for consumption f
i It is apparent from the foregoing facts,
that, we mustrely chiefly -on the sale of
our cottonto defray. thermonstrous annu
al contribution levied upon us in the im
portation of foreign manufactures:; The
staple articles of. the eastern and northern
States are no longer demanded 'abroad
Tbesaine may be said of the ; whoie im
mense cojiintry north west of the Ohio ri
ver." What then are th'e prospects for the
sale of bur cotton in England and on the
continent of Europe From two causes,
the growing of cotton in the United States
must hereafter depend much oh the con
sumption of the domestic market. In the
first place, England, the great consumer
of this article, finds it more for'her interj
est to. draw her supplies. from her own
East and West India" colonies . and from
South-America,' whose commerce she' is
aiming to command; , and which Mr. Pitt
designed to control twenty-five years ago
In 1817,the whole imports, of ' cotton into
Great Britain amounted to 198.917 bags
from the United States, and 232,261 from
India :and(vSouth-America. -In 1818 she
imported 205,881 bags from the .United
States, and 227.681 frrim the other two
quarters. In 1819 she imported 286.000
bags j from this, and 341.000 from other
countries. J During- the first eight months
of thecurreiit year; according to the esti-.
mates of re spf ctable merchants, England
has ini ported 280,000 .bags from the Uni
ted States,, and 164,000 from other sour'--ces--chicfij'
from Sc uth-America ; much
of the old importation from India, and
lQP OjJO bags from this country, still re
mainon hand in her markets ; yet a few
yearsj since, American cotton had the mo'
nopofy pf the English markets. But it is
not f the' growing competition of other
I countries alone of which we would speak
ine.cnange oi prices is stin more irapor
tant.i, In.1818, the estimated receipts for
the sale of 205,881 bags amounted to
831,34,258. In 1820, the proceeds of
280,(00 b gs will not am't 15,000,000
the- estimate is Sl3,00O,00O. "; But ano
ther Mew of the subject occurs here. If
the exportation of cotton is to prevent the
proteicticn of domestic manufactures, then
its demand and value in 'the foreign mar
ket should keep pace with the increaseof
our; population, and our. extensive con
sumption ot foreign manufactures.; If we
this y:ear consume 30,000,000 in British
goods', ten years hence we may require
from;S60 000 000 to S70.000.000 -; If we
nowxport 300,000 bags of cptton', in a,
few years we should rcqr.rre to' export
600,000 bags. And who will 'consume it
abroad ? , Ko nation on the globe. Thust
while our cofton plantations increase with'
the acquisition of southern territory" and
the augmentation of population, the fo-
reign - demand keeps no proportion ' in
points oi, qunmuy, anu iaus in us annual si
value: Tobacco and rice hare also fallen
30.to j50 per .cent.; and we export less now
than'we did twenty years ago. So much
for foreign markets, concerning Which so
muchi is said by the.cpposers of the pro-tectii-h
of national industry. It is estima
ted that our exports the present year will
.amount to from -20 to 825,000,000, and
our imports to 840,000,000. Our wheat
has ho -market, and Cottoq has fallen 50
per cent, and rice and tobacco vastly di
minished in their prices. .;; ;
We are safe then iri drawing these de
ductions: First, that the nations of Eu
rope preserve a rigid and unvarying sys
tem of protection to their industry, and
ihat foreign competition is ! precluded by
the adoption of effectual laws. ' Secondly
that foreign markets, for the staple arti
cles of 'American' produce, '.fail to extend
a consumption that will enable us to in
jure the importation of foreign manufac
tures as we have for a few years past.
Hence a change of policy; as we before I
icinaiiicu, iiiuL ensue. ., ,

of this country to resort to a hew course

It is to be deeply regretted, that hither
to the bpposers of national industr; have
induced, many to. belie vel, that, domesTc
manufactures- constitute x an interest dis
tinct from general interests, and hostile
to akriculture and commerce. In' this, J
violence has been committed upon the
soundest as well as the simplest principles
of political economy," and upon the expe
rience, of every nation that ever existed.
But a revolution in public opinion is taking
place ; and it will be enforced, by looking
back upon; the long neglect of governint
of .this great source of wealth, strength,
and prosperity. In the time of the Reso
lution; the patriots and sages of the diy
saw and expressed the propriety of giving
an early: and uniform encouragement to
domestic , manufactures, and the home
market.,"..,; .... , v ';- :. " .- igy .
In 1789, under the administratiorr of
W'ashington, the Qongress of the United
States called oh Gen.;Hamilton, the5e
cretary of the Treasury, for his great iipd
luminous' Report, which advocated pre
miums, bounties, and prohibitions. iBut
j the golden harvest reaped amid the con-,
j vulsions of the old world-7-the immense
avails accruing to us from! the '.'carrying
trade, and the demands of .foreign Con
sumption for our produce, consigned tiie
reasons and the arguments of this immor
tal statesman to silence and frgetftilness.
From 1807 to 1815, and more particular
ly during the- late war with England,
when! our troops were covered with Bri
tish blankets; because; we could not fur
nish them ourselves, and many a gallant
soldier perished for want of them.j -when
American skill and American manufacto
ries were unable to supply, the munitions
of a defensive war, there was a1 general
voice in favor of Domestic Manufactures.'
The public authorities of the Nation, and
the : public authorities of the different
Stales, were loud in their appeals to;pa
triotism, Jn favor ot national industry
The. ardor, the ambition, and the energies
of the nation were; . roused capital ;iand
enterprise were found, and manufactories
sprung up in various quarters of the Union.
The double duties were laid, and the in
ternal resources of the country rapidly
unfolded. From the reports of conrfhit-
tees on manutactures in the House o
: presentatives, and in jthe Senate of thU
United States in 1816, it appears that in the
I there was an investment of capUal amo:uht
jj ingto between fifty and sixty milliohs'lof
ij dollars ; "and to this! should we add! the
manuiacture oi cotton ana woollen aone,
ii on, glass, anu oiner ariicies ,oi wnicni me
raw material is found among us, the wliole
could not fall short of eighty to a huncfrfd
millions of dollars. The home market
was vastly increased,' the staple articies
of produce extensively consumed, & iiter
nal prosperity every where visihl. A'Vhat
came next ? .With the return of peace,
there was a return of our Terrors and; de
lusions ; we were credulous enough

Capitalists over oar own citizens. i -,
Thesethree measures, would lay' a broad
and solid foundation of that change now
required in rir policy. , ' r :
The first object in adopting a hew ta
riff, should be the complete protection pf
those branches' of domestic manufacture
for which we'ean furnish the .raw,' mate-
; rial, and . the importation of which from
j foreign countries is now draining the na
tion of its circulating capital. v Among
j tnese branches, we would enumerate those
! of cotton, iron, wool, glass, paper, lead;
hemp, and flax. To the entire man ufaqr
ture ot tnese important commodities, our
mineral freasuresahd the fertility bf the
oil, are abundantly adequate. One fact
iscertain, that we do not supply ourselves
directly with those articles now ; and an
other fact is equally certam, that we could
do jt, and secure an immense and annual
profit to th e A merican people. What is
thexonsequence of taking our cotton, our
wool, our flax and hemp, and converting
them froni the raw tcf the manufactured
state ? It is an augmentation of wealth,
clea,r and absolute.; Should we nrtariufac f
ture' cotton, wool, hemp, and flax, to the
amount of forty millions annually by our
surplus labor, the saving to 'te nation
would be the value of the' manufactured
articles over what the raWt materials
w ould: have sold for, in foreign, markets.
As Jthe component substances which, we
can furnish for the 'manufacture of iron,
glass, paper, and lead, for; which we can
find noma'rket, the creation of wealth,
and the ultimate saving to the communi
ty, are equal to their entire value. But,
we shall be asked could not the labor
employed in the manufacture of these ar
ticles i be employed more profitably., in
some other pursuit We answerno.T
Everyj nation will be wealthy and pros
perous in proportion to the-aggregate bt
the industry of her people; and whatever,
therefore, extends the most profitable em
ployment must be kept in view. , A por
tion of the American people are now; out
of employ, and would even work in our
factories, in manyparts of the country,1
for their food. Another portiotfis engajg
ed in occupations that are not productive;
This renfiark applies, in a great degree,;
to the! cultivators of the soil, in the north
era 4nd western States 1 The wages
whate ver they might be, which khouWbe
paid to Americjiii. instead of to foreign
artificers, would be so much clear profit4
to the nation ; and more than this, if a,
portion of the people thus brought into
employment were consumers, without
producing the means of their own subsist
ence. ' Even where the labor of a people
is productive, it is always sound policy to
transfer it to new channels, if 4 greater
prodijtctiveness can thus be secured."
It is probable, that such a protection
from jthe general government against fo-
reign; competition, as' is now required,; to
pif)mbtef the successful manufacture of
cotton, wooli hemp, flax, iron, glass." par
per, lead, and some otht-r. articles ef prime
necessity, to the extent of our domestic
con sum ntion, would bring from six to
'ejghtj hundred thousand people into prd-
auctiye employments, anu open a iiiars-ci
