.DISCRIMINATION FORT AND .fAGAIDIST,
Oue of the principal features of the y taidr • of •
184, was the dicrimination it made in favor of
the labor of the United States. It was this fea
ture more than any other, that caused it- to eZert
stinks powerful influence on de industry of the i
country, and raised it to the eminent degree of
prwperity it had attiiincd, and enjoyed but a few
-weeks since. In the tariff of 1842; on the raw
material, which entered into ot- \ itrarinfactdres,
not obtained at home,ut of tureii production,

The U. S. Ca zelle, in 'an article commentine
upon`one of the- resoluticins of the' Democrats
Ciester coon t ty, in which the Whigs wore charg
rt ' ittiseglecting the ?rest interests of agricul
used-the language:
oVt. hat havethe grain 'interests to do with the ,
aUltie'et! The farmers, ue belimM, did not need
any additional:duty upon wheat and Indian corn
—these arearticies never imported. unless n gen
eral failure of croirs - shotild..at some time, invite a

bread stuffs in Crl'e:l.l:Britain they are already ad
mitted near lyiree of duty, upon . the came ground.
that tea and ctigiie are free in this country, viz :
that not near enoug:i can be raised at home for
consumption.", !, d
.
.
On which The Pennsylvanian remarks:
"What have the grain interests to do with the
subject ?" asks the Gazette, and then adds that.
the Careers tinder the law of 3642, not need
any 'additional duty urron wheat and corn." This
is e.4olenriugh, and certainly goes far to prove the
assertions of the' Demncrat's: of Chester county.
tr the Whigs are whdlly indifferent to the great
and commanding interests of this country. -The,
farmer nefets protection in_ its purest sense, and.-
- lig present emulation proses this to he true.; This
the
. % - qics kramv, too, but as , they think the far
mer cannot foe protected without injury to thernntiu
facturer—a very avise cOnchision, truly-they pre
fer to kt the !firmer starve, so that the latter may
live in opulence and plenty. s The protection of
the farmer does not consist in prohibitory ditties,
'but is rather alTordeal by a foreign as well as home
market for - his produce, ticitner• of which/as we
shall pr'esently,
,prov'e, were afforcded to him under
the act of 1842„ 'He has n right, therefore, to ask',
the repeal of such laws as have a tendency on the
one hand; to noakc'hm pay high priceri-fur what
he constimes,:and,on the other, to injure his mar-.
kets and ditninisVhist prices. And yet the
.U. 55.-
Gazelle asks; “what hat the grain interest to do
with the subject ?"
We call the attention of our readers - to the above
extract and the comments on it, token from the
Pennsylvanian. Such lucubrations as these, mit
forth by papers `exalted by pint into imp&rance,
are among +llse .worst of the sigils of the times.- -
Such vagaries as are, puf forth, by the Journal of
ComMerce of New York.'the Ledger and Penn
sylvanian of Philadelphia; and Other sheets we
could name, would reflect disgrace on the gOO%,
seme'of the merest tyro in.business, and show an•
utter ignorance Of all the'principles by which it is
regulated: . Yet the presses which act thus, are those
which mostmost loudly and:querilonsly C omplain against
any doubt of.the . i~ preposterous reasoning and
stateinents, iv an
.attempt. to create panic Int party
purposes. fair epkcimen of this state of things, 1
may - be foundArribe , aove extract, which proceeds
to argue on statements as positive and incontro-,
vernble, which are galpably contrary to the ero
rieriCe\of everyone in the community. It erro
-gates to the Locofocoiltritish tariff, the'. merit of
having especially protected the 'agricultural inter
est when it is notorious that protection on the ag
gregate value of its produce, has been reduced by
an average of wlthin a fraCtion of 30 per centurn
and the home market hacbeen destroyed thereby,
anfi by therruin of the new 'manufactories being
erected or tattly gone intrtameration under the ita?
fluende of the.law of '42, in most of the farming
districts. 'So far from the tariff-of '46 doing jus
;tic° to the fitrMers, they will suffer more than any
other class, from the fact; 'that individually, they
have less capital to rely upon, than the Manufac
turing and other interests. -If the new bill was
intended for their -benefit, never had men great- ,
er reason to exclaim "save us from'our friends .

plurality of his ()Mad acts meet witii our decided
approbation.
Readvtd, That george M. Dallas, Vice Presik,
dent of the 11 S. in giving, the casting vote for
the so called "%Italy's Tariff Bilf,", did not carry
out the wishes of a llarge majoritylof the Delimit
cractip partyof Penhsylvani l ), yet we believe that
in ;lying that vote he did" conscientiously,. and
.that he had in vitiv alone the interests of Up'

price compatitile with a 'prOper remuneration to
the Manufacturer and mint': ; and that it ielboth
impolitic and unjust in the iovernment to impose
more duties on them than ivill afford 'a just and
