our capitalists to plant and dig potatoes ; and thus a
rotten administration, that comes in by fraud, and al

from foreigners a• permission for our people to dig.—

What is the true Policy 1 A great matter is at issue.
No less than whether we shall protest our own Amer
lean Labor—or, adopting Free Trade doctrines, sacri
fice our hard-banded, honest-hearted mechanics and
working men, to support British Laboiers.
Down with wages! cry the British Free Trade Party!
Reduce our workmen's wages to the standard of Eu
rope ! I protest against that! Buy Coal from Nova
Scotia, if you can get It cheaper than "Toni the Penn
sylvania Mines, is, in effect, the language of the' Brit- ,
lab Free Trade Party.. I protest against that. Get your
Iron from Great Britian, if you can obtain it cheaper,
than from the Furnaces of Penniyivanla, is the policy
of the British Fiee Traders. ' 1 protest against that,-
and so on to the end of the chapter.
The Slave robbers of the'South, calculate on getting' '
a penny more a ponnd for Cotton,' It they can break
down the Coat and Iron business of Pennsylvania, and
the.maimfacturers of the North ; because the addition
al prosperity it will impart to the British, will make
them,generous and enable them to pay better prices.—
Cotton freights, ton, will be cheaper', when large re
turn freights are to he had. This grasping selfishnesa;
so ruinous to us, guar as stestrren. There is not a
particle of true Democracy in it. They would reduce
our free northern laborers to the level of their slaves—
because then, when our workmen ere brought down
to the nearly starving point, l their slaves wont •be so
apt to run away. '
Miners of Coal„ and Laborers at the Mines—come
forth, speak up, thank Heaven you are now free and
Prosperous, (may you,ever be so) and say—Do you ap
prove theke modern Free Trade notions that take off
two thirds the duty from British Coal—letting it in to
the, exclusion of our own, and necessarily leading , to.
the reduction of:wages. If you do, come forth and say
so. I

FREE TRADE & DIRECT TAXATION
openly °voiced. ; . ..,
The following article. is extracted' from the
New York ivening Post, and is worthy. .cif at 7
tention.as pointing out the next phase of democracy.
•• DIRECT TAXATION: • .. 4
Unless the .manufacturers cease their . clamors
for "more, protection," they will drive a large por
tion of the democratic party, and agoodly nunaticr
of whits, into theirinaintainance of direct taxation.
Indeed, the signs are even. now not a few, which
go to show that the tendency .of the public mind,
in certain quarters, is strongly in the direction of
unqualified free trade. There always has been a
number of • persons in this country, who have
opposed tariffs whatever; as itt their very nature
unjust and pernicious; but the qumber of these
have recently been augmented by the extreme'
grounds assumed by the restrictionists. In sec .,
'era' newspapers now before i nspaperit printed
in different- parts df the Union, 'possessing more
or less influence, and representing a strong body
terpublic opinion--we.find thorn taking a position
of 'open hostility to every indirect mode of rais
ing revenue, They argue, that all indirection in
'the action of - government is on the face of it op
posed to the theory' of republican institutions,
which supposes that the people are perfectly aware
of all 'the bearings. and objects of the measures
they adopt ; that tariffs are necessarily unequal,
because they impose burdens upon certain classes
of the community which are not shared by others,
and that they lead. tneVitably to a fradulenr and
corrupt use of, legislative . power. . .
:Whatever force they may \ he in these arguments
it is certain that they are boldly put forth by our ! .
journ; lists, and urged with z4I and no little abili
ty. We have liao„private letars from various
parts of the Mari, which. discusis the proprfety
of forming a league for the : t i rUppression.of the
tarlff system entirely. and the sulatitution.of a
radical and thorough Going, f-eeitrade. It is
urged that it all those who are opposed to indirect
.taxation . should fernirthernselves into a body, and
concentrate their energies, arouse• the public mind
by the diffusion of facts; and infirrinetion, and a
wa,ke a general co-opertion against the present
'tarittschemeia great de I- could be dene in the
'way of battering'it down. We have no opinion
a this Moment to express of the expediency of,
such a league, and we rI fier to it only to furnish

warning .of what they may expect / if they press
their doctrine of repeal. tine extreme begets
another ; - and. as, according , to the triage of expo

MexiCo, and that as it. iv,ohld be but fair to pay for
any r!masessions of territory which the Mericin
goveinmerit might make, he desired to' have; two
millions in• bind ;, suggesting that .it might be
convenient for the Mexican government tot wait
for the payment of the whole sum Anita the treaty
could be ratified by the Senate, and the appropri
ations made by Congress:' '
Here was a remarkable degree of Considerate
attention to the probable exigencies of the Mexi
can Treasury. ' In - tbe' r midst of • hostilities a feel
ing of tenderi concern' , for the empty money 'bags
of our enemies rises up in the bosom of the Pres
ident; he is an'rious to make them a present of
two millions ial advance of the - ratification of any
treaty. They may determine to continue the war
afterwards ; but surely they will be touched' 'by
such a mark of kindness and affectionate concern;
they cannot certainly resist such an appeel for
peace. - : . 1
The Nashville Union, a sort of home organ of
the President, gives some insight into the particu
lar application for' which the two million appropri
ation was solicited. It'refers to the restoration of
Santa Anria, as forseen' by Mr. Polk ; speaks of
the peaceful inclinations of, tho former, yet adds - :
'But be cannot make peace unless the army is al
so for peace ;' and 'in this , critital cpodition of af
fairs,Mr. Polk foresaii ih l at the use 6f lab millions
of (killers might be of !great importance.' The
-honest commentator g'oes on - to say that' Santa
Anna 'might be able falearry out: his wishes, if he
:knew that he Was able to get the means of paying
his soldiers.' A very simple arrangenlent I I .
