Canal Commissioner. The editor of the Journal, it is very evident, has not forgotten the services rendered the whig party, by a corrupt Board of Canal Commissioners in IS3B, when Mr. RITS.ER was Governor and the Whig candidate for re election. We can assure the editor of the Journal, that the history of that cor rapt whig administration is still fresh in the re. collections of the people, and that they will not soon again trust the Whigs with the management of the public works. The Journal though daily filled with matter abusive, of Mr Fosrma, the editor, thus far, has not dared to directly assail the com. Petency, efficiency, or honesty of the Democratic nominee. At the close of the Ritner whig administration , the public works were found in a deplorable con dition, and it has since requited the most indefat igable exertions on the.part of Democratic Canal Commissioners to retrieve their character, and pay off the load of debt with which whig management had burthened them. To prove that what we say is correct, we direct the attention of the reader to the following statements, exhibiting the receipts and expenditures on finished lines of improvements for the years 1836, 1837 and ,1838, the three years of whig rule, and also the years 184 tand 1845, and to the Ist of August, 1836, which includes nearly the whole time that Mr. Fos-ran has performed the duties of Canal Commissioner.

FELLOW Crrizsxs:—The political history of our country proves that the opponents of Demo. cratic principles, will hesitate at no means, how ever destitute of honesty, for the purpose of ob structing their progress or crushing them by de feat. Never was this fact made more manifest than in the course purgued by the Whig party, through its journals and leading politicians, in re lation to the Tariff of 1848. Instead of consent ing, to test the merits of the bill and its results, or even entering into a fair and just comparison of its provisions with that of the one which it had displaced, the whole country was made to ring with denunciations even in advance of its passage, and ruin and unheard-of disaster predicted from it, before the:e prophets of evil could tell What were its distinctive features. The Tariff of 1812 was held up to us as a model of all that was benefi cent, and any mollification of that act, much less the substitution of am ther. was pronounced a precursor of starvation and beggary to the work. ing-men, and panic and pecuniary distreas to our business community. These, rte say, are the pre dictions of Whig Editors and I'peakem indulged in, even while the bill of 1,;..i12 w as yet i it th e hands of the Congressional Committee which re ported it, and now reiterated unceasingly, although the act will riot for several months go into practical operation. The Tariff of 1848 has been denounce I in advance—an attempt has been made to forestall public opinin,—we therefore ask you, fellow-citi zens, to give us a fair hearing upon this matter while we calmly and dispassionately discuss its provisions, and compare them with those of previ ous Tariff schemes. Our opponents rave exhaust ed the vocabulary of abuse and even surpassed themselves in the work of misrepre:entation in their disquisitions upon the subject. We, for our part, ask but a cool examination of the whole subject, without party prejudice or excited fears. to show the utter absurdity of their predictions and the dishonest shallowness of their attempts to create a - panic, - -itself capable of producing more evil to the workingmen, for whom thig new born zeal has been evinced, than could the foul abroga'ion of our Tariff Laws. A Tariff is a form for the levying of taxation; a Tariff duty is, in brief, nothing more, nor less. than a tax. It is a principle of justice, recognized in the laws of all civilized governments, and more especially in our own, that monies for the admin istration of the laws should be levied upon prop erty so far as practicable. As the vast proportion of laws are made for the protection of the right of property, it is but justice that property should de. fray a corresponding portion of the expense. Of all the schemes, however, invented by the ingenui ty of man, a Tariff can be made most easily to answer the purpose of an envasion of this princi ple, and without danger of detection, wring the tax which should be paid by capital from the hard and toil embrowned labor of Industry. While we are ready to admit that the Tariff of 1842 posses. sed many features of undoubted excellence, it is a fact capable of easy demonstration, that in its de tails it *furnished to an extreme extent the means by which capital defrauded labor into the payment •of exactions rightfully due from its r4wn swelling coffers. The Act of 1842 levied many of the most important duties in such wise as to make the laboring and mechanical classes of the coon j try pay by far the larger portion of the tax, while comparatively light imposts were levied upon ar• tides exclusively used by the wealthier portion of our people. To Make this still more evident, we select articles of the latter description, showing in the following tables the duties levied by the Tariffs of 1840 and 1842, respectively. 1810 Wixss—Champaigne, 1812 40 Burgundy, 9 40 Madeira, 9 40 CATIPETS--Wilton, 3o 23 Turkey, 28 30 30 Gcoves—Gentlemen's Kid, 30 Ladies 21 30 Gentlemen's French Buck, 13 30 4 " $ 40,145 22 2139,33:2 13 $2U0,000 $129.332 13 255,756,82 Perfumes, Silk for Dresses, Pearls, Cameos, • Jewelry, Furniture of Cedar Wood and Satin Wood, 30 90 1,347,728 71 TT 'EIGHT-DOLLARS SEVENTY-ONE CTS. as the amonut- of net revenue - derived from the public works of the state, in the two years and a half, whic;ll they have been under the control of the r • present competent and 'efficient Board 'Atthe ex piration pn of three • years of whir, ; rule we find the public Works in debtlneariy $4 iio,opo, after baying . expended all the rev;enties.

The above statement exhibits the fact, that low, duties-are levied by the tariff of 1842, upori.all an ticles consumed only by the rich. They pay but alrivial amount of revenue for the luxuries.otlife, while we find that in every instance the bill pro posed by.Mr.MiCay increases on such articles the rates of duty. We have here an explanation of the violent opposition which this Tariffmeeti with from our opponents. But, before we .pursue this subject further, let us again recur to the bills of 1842 and 1816, and compare the rates of duty lev ied by each upon the articles entering into the constant and necessary consumption of the great mass of our countrymen, the farmersonechanics. laborers, and others of moderate Means. We will find that upon all articles essentially -and universal ly required by these classes, the Tariff tax is as high, as those of the wealthy were low.— The comparison demonstrates the fact that the tar iff of 1812, so far at least, as these provisions ex tend, was designed to deceitfully abstract from the hands of labor, the tax which should be piiid by 'capital. But, we will now call your attention to I I our second tabular statement, showing the differ ence between the duties levied upon the most corn-. I mon necessaries of life by the two bills whose res pective merits we have been considering. 1842 1816 Brown Sugar, 62 30 Vinegar, 52 30 'Salt, 76 30, r Shirting, costing 61 per yard, 95 30 Cotton prints costing 123 per yarel, 50 25 Crapes low prices, 60 251 Mous. de laMe 125 per yard, .50 25 Alapacca, 50 25 1 These figures are selected from the columns oft the Pittsburgh Commercial Journal, one of the most i prominent Tariff papers in the state, and the prin cipal organ of the Whig party in this city. The statements of the Editor must be assumed at least, as good authority by our opponents, as he has di tinguished himself more than any other Journal in the state by his active and unceasing hostibility to the Tariff of 1846, and the uncompromising course which he has adopted in support of the Tariff a l 1812. It is true that we have other documents fiom the departments of Government, Congression- al Reporter, and other official sources, but in order i to prevent the possibility of cavil, we selected from the paper which in reality is acknowledge the lead Ping organ of the Whig party, the information with I' which the proceeding tables are formed. I From these figures the most casual observer may fully understand the difference between the two bills. That of 1842 raised' the revenue by taxing the articles consumed by the working classes, while the luxuries of European aristocrats were imported j with but a nominal duty. While the laborer. un der the Tariff of 1542, paid duties of 15, 50 and 60 !per cent. upon the clothing for himself and his lam lily, his wealthy neighbor paid but 14 per cent. for I his silks, and 71 per cent. only for his jewelry.— Was this just. fellow-citizens? Ought a law making end, discriminations to receive the support of the I Democratic party without modification? An alter ation in those particulars was certainly required. We have shown by what we have already said, that i the Tariff of 1812 levied far the greater portion of I • • its imposts upon the working classes of the coup - try; that it was unjust unit partial: allowing those I most able to pay taxation to escape with but nom ; . mal payments, while the Treasury of the Govern.' merits was filled Ly taxation open the clothing. and' food of the gnat mass of working men. The Tar I iff of 1816 reverses this principle imposing light ! duties upon the absolute necessaries of life, and up- I , on all articles consumed almost exclusively by the, !Industrial classes, while luxuries have been put up s 'to a higher and more equitable rate. We will now proceed to the consideration ofl ; what are termed our -great interests," as affected I by the alteration of the Tariff of '42, and the depar ture (rem the principle of the Compromise Act MI Mr. CLAY. Before. entering upon the details of thin I part of our subject, we wish to say, that, in out, opinion, no party, as a party, could have prevented the modification of the Tariff bill of 1842. An ; I immense majority in this country have decided I against it; and a minority could not sustain it, how. I ever energetic might have been their support., ;against the wishes and instructions of the Ameri- I can people. Whichever party had triumphed nil 1841 the alteration of the existing Tariff was equal-. ly unavoidable. had the whig party succeeded,: the principles of the Compromise Act, or 20 per' cent. duties on all imports, would have beca ad•l bereft to. As however the Democratic party sue-, seeded, the bill of Mr. M'Kay has been introduced instead; considered politically then and with refer-, once to the position of parties, we are justified in taking the Compromise Act as the standard of Whig' protection. We need not spend time in demonstra ting a fact so obvious as this Mr. Clay was the author and champion of the Compromise bill. and upon the last Presidential election he avowed his continued adhesion to its principles. The question therefore in reality is, so far as the Democratic and Whig parties differ upon the subject. between Mc- Kay's Tariff, and Mr. Clay's Compromise• or the Whig Tariff We now prasent you with a condensed statement of the duties levied by the act of IK.M, you will there perceive that all our "great interests," to speak in the phrase of the time, are actually better pro tected thin they would have been frul Mr. Clay's policy triumphed in the elections of ISA 4.

We - ask of yon fellow citizens, an unprejudiced examination of the preceding statement, and the accompanying facts; judge the bill fairly by, its own merits, or by.a comparison with the • duties which the Whigs themselves .would hair! imposed had they been in power, and we have nothing to fear. We hold that the bill gives adequate protec tion to the manufacturing interests of the country, without crushing the consuming classes .by enor mous taxation levied in , the shape of duties. But, even allowing that the duties on Iron, or Glassere insufficient for the purpoies of a just pro tection, they are still ten per cent or one-third bet ter than those proposed in the compromise act, neither has the action of Congress upon this sub ject beerrfinal. Should a modification of the tariff of 1546, be demanded by experience, in this, or in any other respect, the Democracy and the Demo cratic administration are pleged to comply. At the next session of Congress should a necessity for this alteration become necessary, it will not be refused._ We regard the attempt made to raise a , panic" because of the adoption of this law,as the work of unprincipled politicians, Seized on as it has been in in some instances by avaricious manufacturers as a pretext for reducing the wages of labor.— There is no cause for panic. The farmer, the mechanic, the professional man and the laborer, are alike protected With the manufacturer in this bill. We are among, those who consider that the in terests of Pennsylvania require a modification of the bill passed at the last session of Congress, and we consider that the only means by which the al- 1 teration required can be made is to bave our state ' represented in the next congress by men whose position will give them the largest amount of inter est with the general government. This we take to be a common sense view of the question. We will require the aid of the Democratic party of the Union to procure such a modification of the Tariff as will preserve our great interests from injury.— To accomplish this result the aid of the Deinoc-1 racy is indispensible. Shall we solicit this co-op-1 eration by sending Whigs—their bitterest enemies as our Representatives to Congress? "Come now and let us reason together." Who will he most likely to succeed in gratifying, our wishes on the subject of the amendment of the Tariff, those who are in political fellowship with the party which holds the fate of the measure in its hands, or those who are in constant hostility to them, and are with all a weak trembling minority. We are prepared to say, fellow citizens, that the amendment of the Tariff of 1816. so as to meet the concurrence of Pennsylvania will depend entirely upon the elec tion of a Democratic delegation to Congress. It she adheres to her ancient faith. and dory send to Washington as guardians of her interests, men who stand high in the confidence of the Democracy, the whole party, the administration will dome to the rescue, and with grateful affection Protect the staunch old state; on the other hand should she throw herself into the armsof Whig. , ery, and seed men to Congers known only by their bitter hos. tility to Democratic principles, men, and meas ures, she will thereby disown the powerful friends who are able to save her, and become the victim of a misplaced confidence in those who have not the power. men had they the will and capacity to sustain her cause. We come now to consider the effect of the new Tariff in its most important aspect; its influence upon the .Agricultural interests of the country, represented by a class mom numerous than any other, and in the grade of usefulnes and industry, literally and truly the -bone and sinew of the country." The recent alteration of the Tartff laws of, Great Britain has been peculiarly beneficial to our j fanners, affording as it does an ever ready market for their produce. The taking off the burdensome.l duties, by rendering the purchase °four grains ea-, sy by all classes of the British people, must, of course, furnish a constant outlet for the va t and j increasing stores of American agricultural wealth. I In the nature of things nom the disproportion be taeen our whole population and the immense do main which we cultivate, as well as from the ! large proportion of our people engaged in these pursuits, our agricultural products must, for years, perhaps always exceed the demand for home con-, sump:ion. Under an exclusive Tariff system this superabundance must remain in the hands of the grower, and low prices and ruin to the hard work-' ing farmer must be the result. The surplus will render the whole product of the farmer dull of sale. The condition of the agricultural classes in Continental Europe abundantly proves this fact.— The 'peasantry," as they are called, are reduced I to ignorance and a state of 'physical servitude, un known thus far in our own country. But foreign: I Governments have offered to open their ports to ! II our grains with extremely moderate duties, so that,, there is now a fair opportunity for our farmers to jexport their produce. Let us meet other nations] with a wise and liberal policy—let usnot, at least,! sacrifice the interests of our great agricultural I cIISS to the presumptuous claims and arrogant de-1 :nand of a few monopolists.' Arc we content to see all other interests lan guish, so that they continue to make enormous' profits from a tax paid by their own countrymen!, P.'hile we adhere to a liberal and moderate—we will also say . wise—Tariff the ports of Europe will open to receive the surplus productions of our farms and those who work them will receive fair prices, because the fruits of their labor can nev er, in such case, exceed the demand. On the oth. er hand should we persist in our high Tariff poli !cy,.our farmers must be content to keep their cur j plus at home, for we cannot expect a continuance by other countries of a conciliatory policy, if met with exclusive and prohibitory duties on this side jof the Atlantic. We must choose therefore be tween rendering simple justice to our farmers, and the gratification of our aristocratic and; grasp ing monopolists. What is the course to pursue! certainly not to prefer the demands of the few to the just claims of the ninny. But the friends of the Tariff of 1812. or rather the Whig declaimers, in its favor, have asserted that in the article of Wool, at least. the farming I classes are loosers by the act of 'l6. This is a thin cy explained and refute!, in brit few words. The Wool growers of the United States require no I protection for their fine qualities of that article.— j In quality this article can compete with the world, and is in fact yearly exported in large quantities. Upon coarse wools, however, a protection was I perhaps required, as it was made to enter into the material of a variety of goods, which were sold instead of articles formed wholly of tine wool.— This of course had a constant tendency to lessen the price and demand for fine wool. A high duty on coarse wool would have checked this tendency, and the manufacturer would no longer find his profits in filling the market with his "Coburg" and 'Alpacca,' made principally from the coarse article. From these facts, and we challenge denial of their accuracy, it will be seen at a glance, that the American wool grower did not require a duty on line wool, but that he did require it on the coarser. Now how have the Tariffs of 1842 and 1816 met these wants. The tariff of 1842 imposed a duty precisely where it was useless, and neglected to impose it where it was really necessary, The tariffof 1W reduces the duty where it can be done without injury to the farmer, and increases it in the place required. The tariff of 'l2 placed a duty of only 5 per cent upon coarse wool. The tariff of '46 places a duty upon it of 30 per cent. We have thus, fellow citizens, given you a brief, though general view of the tariff law of 1846, more especially as its provisions contrast with previous enactments of the same 'nature. After all, however, it may be questioned whether the leaders of our opponents can be. persuaded to ! meet the tariff 18'46 upon a just and candid course of reasoning. They only regard the tariff as the means of creating a panic, in the confusion inci dent to which they may come into power. No class of men were in reality more anxious for the alteration of tire tariff of 1842, for:they expected thereby to raise a cry of ruin, Which might fright en the conntry into the adoption of theirl daring schemes. a National Bank and distribution of the land fund. Only as a political war cry do the whigs discuss the tariff policy;.atdortly as a parti san measure is it regarded by their leaders. 'This fact was made apparent on the final passage of the pritT bill throughlhe Setrate,'wheit:ab amendment • •; V - - having been offered by a Stnctior from Pennsylvania the Hon. J. J. CllritiNtiE . N, the, Whig. Senatorial leader, rose in his place and Imiltottnced, his deter mination steadily to - oppose all ethendments to the bill, and that so far as - he - was cOncetted, lit wish: ed the-bill to go to the coantry flurely demo cratie measure, without whig matkis'npori This is whig affection for the tariff. This fact is eloquent of their sincerity! When amendments were offered.to Some Pennsylvania interests, they refused to vote for them, for fear the tariff bill, thus amended, would - not : be so good an electioneering hobby! But we need not spend time in arguing this subject, as in Our district we have abundant 'evi (knee of its truth: Here,. m your two, oppesir , candidates for Congress, the one known nll his life as a stern andunwavering friend of a just and equi, table tariff—the other unknown upon the subject; and were he ever so earnestly devoted to the meas ure, incapable of rendering it as efficient service as his opponent. How do the whigs among your own neighbors choose in this emergency? TO a man, however violent their declarations, you will find them doing, all in their power to secure the' election of the least capable of the two. Itt the coming Congress the people of Allegheny ; county, need the aid of man as. their Representa tive, who 'possesses abilities of the highest Order,' that he may eloquently and forcibly assert their rights and wants. IVt Isms Weals DLESH is that I I man. We want a man whose high personal !MIMI ence with the government and the dominant party, I will give him additional means of securing our oh jects. WI LSON 31. num possesses these qual.] ifications in an eminent degree. Nu man in Penn sylvania stands higher in the confidence of the ad- ministration and the! Democracy of th We want, finally, a man intimately acqbainted with their wants, and earnestlytdevoted to their ! ' relief. WILSON M'Casnr.tss is that man. In WILSON .M'CA &111..ssii, whom the Donnie-, ! racy of Allegheny offer as their candidate are found all the requisites for an able, an! honest and most efficient Representative in the National Congress. He is profoundly versed in a I knowledge of our Tariff laws, and earnestly deco led to the cause of making them subservient so far as practicable to the interests of our peopie.— From one end of this state to the other no Man can be found who has been more consistent in hi 1 I support of sound Tariff doctrines. Should the ;Tariff come before the next Congress, as it most; certainly will, into whose hands fellow citizens could you more wisely entrust your interests than those of W M - Candlessia man with whose prillefpleS I you are familiar? Does he not know your inter ests? Can any man know them more thoroughly? Born and brought up-in your midst, you have all' known himself and his principles from boyhood. ! Always an active politician, he has never appeared before you in the character of an applicant for of ! lice, occupying a position in the very front rank of his p • essum, and in the enjoyment of a lucrative practice, lie has been persuaded.(he has not sought) to accept of a nomination to Congress. The emergency of !the case—the certainty that I I measures vitally effecting the welfare of his friends and neighbors will come before the next - Congress I—he has, at a pecuniary loss to himself, consented to become a candidate for Congress. Without I venturing upon any estimate of the opposing can. lidate, can there be, we ask, in all solemnes! - ; a doubt as to the superior fitness of Mn. M CA :513.0:58 for the station to which they are each propceied? If then our opponents, really mean any thing! by the cry about the tariff; let them prove it by their action in choosing between the two candidates.! IVe now leave with you, Fellow Citizens, 'the decision of the question, convinced that the Most rigid analysis of the facts will sustain our views of the Tariff question. ROBERT voirrEn, JOHN C.
