factiired article, or you will excite' an
intestine war 'among the friends of thel
Tariff, which 'must '.soon destrOy 01 7
together: . You . cannot _ exclude iron
from its•operation- without dealing it a
deadly:.blow... • - •
The Senator has informed us that
.
the:l4l6A' mannfacturers, have derived
great'benefils front • the' hot Blasi; and
that they noW. : ,have.on 1ia4,4 . 03ne, full,
year'ssupply. tor all_ the. rail 'roads in
the World," - . which they can furnish- at
a reduceid price.. Admitting this to be
the : fact ; what does it prove ?. Why,.
sir, this is the- very mode 'by which
they have always -attempted to - crush
American manufactures, - and this has
furnished a principal* argiiment. in fa-
yor of 11164116 i protection.
.„The En-'
glish sell al; they can, to other foreign
nations, and then . send the surplus• to
us to glut our markets, and ruin. our
manufactures. This fact, instead of
,benefiting the Senator, furnishes a ,
'strong argument
,against re : pealing i ! lie
existing duty.
But.will the continuance Of the pres
ent duty exercise anyperceptible influ-,
ence icy preventing the - construction of
rail roads,? ' I humbly apprehend hot;
even upon 'the Senator's
According to his estimate, tlwwhole
amount of duty 'under the pc'esent law,
on the ,rails necessary for'one mile of
such a road, is $2,250. This is so 1
small a suni in: proportion' to the cntite
cost of the road,' that it will deter '-no
Company in 'the country from prosecu
ting their ivork.
In conclusion, I desire to), call your
attention to one important consideration.
The present-railroad Companies, rest
their claim chiefly upon the argument,
that they are entitled to the same privi
leges which the older. diampariies have
already enjoyed. But even after the
present Companies shall haVe paid the
dut4under. the existing laity, they will
obtain their iron at as cheap a rate as .
the older Companies, who imported it
free of duty. This imortant adults
itas been made on the first page of
the letter-from the President of the
Boston arid Fitchburg rail way Compa
ny, to the Senator from Maine. By a
reference to the prices current of this
article in Wales, for a number of years
pasty it will be seen 'that up -till near
the time when we imposed a duty on*
rail road iron in September, 1841, the
.price varied from fifty-five to sixty, dol..
lars per ton : Since that time the price
has fallen - to s24' per ion, at Which the
Fitchburg Comprny purchased their
Thus it appears, that this Con
gress, will pay but $4O per ton, includ-
z ing the duty , whereas, if they had
/
purchased their. iron in 1840, it would,
have cost them, without the duty, near- .
I,y sixty dollars. per ton. They have
been benefitted in more than one, not
-injured, by the delay. Great int prove
,ments have been made in the construc
tion of rail ways, and cost has been
much reduced since the earlier compa.
nies have completed their roads. Of
all theSe-advntages, the works at pres
ent in progess will avail themselies.
By the laSt advises from England, as
_ we are informed by the Senator from
New Jersey., (Mr. Miller,) the price of
• rail road iron has risen to £6, 111,0, or
$52 per ton, and surely none' will deny
that it can now be manufactured in this
country at a cheaper rate than this
price with the present duty added, ' •
There is ode remarkable fact connec
ted with this subject Well worthy of se
lions consideration. Whilst railroad'
Iron came to us free of duty, The price
• 'remained high in Great Britain.- In
January, 1840, its cost in Wales, was,
£ll, 15, 0 sterling, or 858 per ton.-
In May, 1842,. after a duty of 20 'per
;neat. had been imposed,, it sunk to R 7
sterling, or $35 per ton.; and- in Au
• gust, 1843, one year after the duty of
twenty-five dollars per ton had been
imposed it reached its lowest price $24
• per ton, at which the Ditching Compa
.. Ay purchased. Do not these facts fur
rtish a.strorg argument against the re
l
Beal of the - present duty • Make thd
article once more duty free; in• this
manner afford the British manufacturers
a security that they shall enjoy the ex
clusive possession of our market ; and
will they not again raise the price to
' • $5B per ton, the standard of 1840?—;
• , Our railroad companieS would then be
Compelled to pay a higher price for the.
article.than they, do at present;' ,whilst,
the .Treasury . would lose- the . whole,
amountof.the duties:. We have* been
" informed That the great iron masters of
- England act in concert, arid'. control
prices at, dieir quarterly meetings;
,"and.
so ‘ absolute ii this control that every
.manufacturer must be governed by it,
• :.and:iircompelled . -to, blow out his fur- .
1 - 'need," if necessary, to prevent - an ;over
• production.' These facts go fat to es
tabltshthe_principle which. all our ex
perience Sanctions; that increased du
, *- ties fall; in a great :degree', upon the

NOTE.
The Bill was then on-the 11th June,
1844,'negatked by a vote of 20 to 16
but immediately thereafter a motion was
made tp reconsider - the vote whibh. pre-'.
vailicljbi arote of 19 t 0216, on the'l4tli
June, in donsAtience ,of suggestions
made by Mr. Berrien and Mr.,Evans,
that they would move _amendments to
tile—Bill which would 'render it more
acceptable. Mr. Berrien, then - "moved
amendment, the effect ef which' was to
limit'theSree importation of Rail Road,
iron to such iron as had .been already
imported or should be on board snip for
importation, before the passage pi . - the
Act. This proposition Was resisted' by
Mr. Buchanan. and .others, upon the
principle that if the duties should be
remitted ou rail road iron imported
since the 3d March, 1843, and if the
solemn and repeated decisions of Con
gress, fixing this as the last day for
such free importations, should be re
versed, then there could be no security
hereafter for the iron interests of the
country. The door once opened could
riot-be closed.

What the Whigs said in 1533.
HARMER DENNY, of Pittsburg, was
the 'Federal member of Congress from
that district, at the time of passage of''
Mr. Clay's compromiseract and remem
bered, too that Mr. Clay stands solemn- i
ly pledged to adhere to this same act,
which Mr. Denny here views as an
abandonment of the Tariff.
IVAsniNuTos, Febuary 14, 1833

you will see that Mr. CLAY HAS I
LEFT HIS TA RIFF FRIENDS AND !

by the in . 1840
z• Igs • ,
' The e - yr-Would appointfiernemberi of
Congress io office:: '
They would'reake . no removals:for
opinion's sake.
'They would reduceihe etperiditities.l

They . would Make , a sound and uni-:
form national currency.
• 'They would "regulate ~ the 'ex
changes."
' They would raise the price of pro
duce: '
They would increase the kvagei of
labor. •
They would " relieve the people."
How have these promises been kept ?
This is , a fair question. Let us see the
answer :
_l. On the very day , Gen. Harrison.
took his seat—ay, before he had time
te- warm the seat; four Whig,.memberw
of Congress were appointed to cabinet
offices; and since:that:time the number
of members confirmed in 'Office by
,the, whig Senate is greater than at any
.previous period since the time of Wash
tugton.
2: Mr. Granger; the Postritaster Gen
eral, removed 1,700 postmasters during
.his brief power, " for opinion's sake,".
.and subsequently boasted that, if hehad
continued in office, he should have gait
letined 5;000 more.
8. The ,Whig Congress when it ad
journed on the 3d of March, 1843, left
a'national debt ofbearly FIFTY ;NINE
'MILLIONS, When 'Mr. Van Buren
.retired, it w a s about $5,000,000. Hea
ven only knows . what it would now
have been, had hot President Tyler in
terposed the veto power.
The expenditures during Mr. Van
Buren's last yeanwere $22,351,146.
During the year of the 4 , retrepch-
Tent " Whigs, they were 526,394,243;
and during the next two.years averaged
near $25,000,000.
4. The purse and sword" were
separated by a law passed under Van
Buren's administration imposing a fine
and penalty on all officers who use
the public moneys for private purpo-
Se,S. e
The Whigs; as soon as they came
into power, united the " purse and
sword" again, by repealing this law,
without providing a substitute.
5. Having done
,nothing to improve
the currency, of course ,they haVe not
kept that promise. The urrency was
good, when they commenced their a't
tack upon it, and it is good now--,-but
no thanks to them. It has regulated
itself, as the Democrats have, always
said it would. And as for the ",ex
changes," there was more fluctuation
under a National Bank, than there has
been since.
6. Under the Whir administration
the PRICES OF PRODUCE and the
WAGES OF LABOR have been re
duced notwithstanding the Whigs pro
mised the people " two dollars a day
and roast beef," and "better times.'
In brief they have violated - EVERY
PROMISE made in 1840. Now they
have the insolence to come before the
.people with the same allurements and
false lights. BEWARE OF THEM.
LOVE AND AMBITION..-TA. woman's
heart is like a magazine of powder, well
defended and hard to tomcat, but when
.once reached, ready to take fire m a
minute.—You must work by the sap
and mine, 'my lord, and I can assure
you the g round is not so hard and rocky
as you think. No Woman was ever
yet insusceptible of love, and there ,- is
but one passion that I know of, that
can extinguishthat . magic fire. The.
blasts of adversity cannot blow it out.
It will burn beneath the cold 'water of
ill-treatment and neglect. In the air : .
less caverns of:: despair, it shine,,s by its
own light, and down .to the grave it
' goes blazing up, 'even in death,—No
, thing, I say .nothing can extinguish it
but another fierce flame in • the tamp—
that of ambition. It was this that
taught Elizabeth to quench the fire that
was in her heart as strong as any on
earth: This made her hold back from.
Leicester, this guarded her against Es 7
sex. . •
Rules for Ladies.
Marry not a profane map, because
the depravity of his heart will corrupt
your children .and embitter your,exis

Marry notta gambler, :a tippler, or a

has no regard for himself will, never
have any for his wife.
;Marry not a man who makes pronti ,
ses which he never performs, because
you c , an never trust him.
Marry not a man whose actions do
not.correspond with his sentiments;
because
,the passions have dethroned
reason, and he is prepared ,to commit
every crime to ivhich an' evil nature,
unrestrained, can instigate — him. The
state of that man who regards not, hi;
own ideas of right and wrong is de
plorable, and the -less you have to•do
with him the better.
Marry not a man who neglects his
