G. It is time-, neighbor Jones, that,we were.all

must protect domestic imhislry—all parties should

J. What am 1 to understand by protecting domes

G. Why, wo must protect tho manufactures of our
own country against those of Great Britain. We
must lay a high tariff of duties on-foreign goods, so as
to protect our own operatives against tho low wages
of other countries', othcr r nalious do this, and wb must
in self defence do the same. Great Britain levies
heavy taxes on every tiring imported into that country,
and wo n.uSI do the same if wo would make our coun
try great, and rich and flourishing.

wages it seems arc the. consequence, Wq are called

duce like consequences.'. This if I understand you, is 'i’lllilljT.liSG DMT'A 111 OF A F RIGT IT’

to the'labor of every country tyliich -introduces them.
Great Btitainjias carried this artificial system to tho ;
highest cxootT and it is notorious that there Is more 1

have ono of TrumbuH’s lithographed letters in your

from .Washington, and not from the people. Theso |

yet instead oj epaejing any law, they are sanding their

J. They never tried to cheat jne with lithographed
circulars got up in iftdtationrof writing. If they had
undertaken any scheme of thia kiod by .ine, they_wouid
have been mistaken in the man; but I doht believe that
any dociimentwhuU have been guilty of fraud.;' Jt be
long* exclnsively.to Joseph Ttpiphull and his associ
ates, tp resort to means like dncsc. I- remember your
ail or eight of Oglo’s lying speeches about “gold'
spoons” and French bcJsteadj from him.twoyepra ago,
“OBR COUNTRY RIGHT OR WRONG.”
i Resolved on revenge, the, jealous Marfa
1 sallied forth unperceived,- sought in the vil
) lage fur Maryna’a brother and lover, and
found them, at about midnight, in the afpre
said public house.T— She reproached them
with infamy and 1 cowardice, kindled in their
breasts the feelings of.revenge which her’s
could nut restrain, and inflaming them tp
such a degree, that they dashed their r glisses
to the ground, and pulling their foreliifgcrs
together in the shape of a cross. kissed.it,
and swore to be avenged. After this oath,
the most solemn a Muscovite boor can make,
Kej’ivan and Alexis left Marfa, and wont to
every house in the village, exciting lljeir
countrymen and telling their design.
-- About three hours after 'this scene, just
at dawn, when the inmates of'the chateau
were slumbering, a band'of near four hun
dred peasants, each carrying a largo bundle
of dry straw, spread round the reSdencc,
1 which, like most of those in the district of
I Tambof, was built of wood. At a given
[signal, and beforc-any within could give a
larm, the peasants set fire in all directions
to the straw which they had heaped up close
to the sides of the building and then retir
ing to some distance, they waited, armed
. with guns, axes, pitchforks and scythes, till
the illumination roused the Lord of’Sukulin
Slaw and his guests from their slumbers.
'MierzalolV was the first disturbed. Terri
fied at the sight of the encircling fire, he
rushed into the court , and attempted, to
make his way through the gate. A shot
which brought hint to the ground, taught
him"what fate awaited his guests. These
soon made their appearance, sword in hand,
and strove to open.themselves a way through
the flumes, and the close ranks of live peas
ants. A tremendous, struggle ensued, in
uhich..ho l weyer. the.officerg. were Tmgqnate.
a captain.pained Ulanberg’. Harassed with
fatigue, having their hair and ■crolhes ,, buril'-
cd, the succeeded "in reiicing a little wood,
where, beyond 'the grasp of the peasants,'
they were, enabled to give some assistance
- to four of them who had been dangerously
wounded. , ’
The moment the peasants had seen their
lord, all were aware that they would pursue
the -officers ij> vain, fh.cy had rushe,d in to flic
chateau to save the pourgifls, tlieTminlccnT
’ yicluns J ()f~ftrcir the -latter;
after raising him, bathing in his blood, they
gratified-their,--lung-restrained hatred, ami
indicted on him atrocious torture, an im
meiise wood pile was set fire to, and Mier
zalotfwas cast into the furnace. In vain
did Mafia,.repenting too late-the revenge
she hud kindled, implore in behalf ol her un
fortunate master, whom she believed still a
! live; she was herself seized and-thrown into
I the fire with reproaches of her having loved
I her opprobrium.
I This terrible execution being over, the
| peasants fury raged against every thing that
1 had'belonged to the Lord of Sokolin Slaw.
The house was burnt down, along with the
{stables, barns’, and breweries', and lest any
tiling that MierzalolV liked should survive,
they destroyed his horses and hounds.
Three days after this tragic occurrence,
an Isprhwnick captain (the police chief of
the district) arrived on the spot, comniis
i sioned to iihijuire into (lie affair, lie was
accompanied by two companies of infantry
land cavalry, to .enable him to quell the re
bellion. His surprise may be imagined

G. There is no use in bringing up these old mat

J. I believe I understand your object. On the eve
of every clectioii, you and your party have sonic pan
ic schemes, that arc disgraceful to ourselves and to'tlic
country. Forty years ago, you had a.panicycar after
.year about French influence,.and alarmed many of
our simple neighbors, who really supposed that Jeffer
son or Madison was going to sell us to the French.—
and the war' papica;
We had the coffin handbill panic at_a later day, when
you and your associates denounced the patriot Jack
son, year after year, os a military despot. We have
had just before election, panic after panic, about the
Banks, the Depositcs, the Exchanges, the Currency,
the American system—and this Tariff panic, which
Mr. Trumbull says is to be “agitated for several years,”
is no new thing. Now, neighbor Gammon, my opim
ion is that you will make butdiltlo out of Mr. Trum- 1
bull’s scheme this year. The people are n(ot>o easily
humbugged as you sqppose, after your log cabin, gold
spoon and elder delusions. I would advise you
to write Mr. Trumbull to attend to his Congressional
duties instead of wasting his lime, and the paper of
Congress in electioneering. Ask him what ho things
of Clay’s 4th resolution, and as for yourself, I hope
you ore sincere inyour professions of opposition to
British influence, and as an. evidence, I trust you-will
not advocate the introduction of Briliahpolicy, British
tariff and prirish taxation into this country.
