MI. DEAR Stn . :—Our country, 'after a short pe
riod of prosperity, is igaiu involved in financilil
and commereal difitcultiCs, so serious in their
character and ttlenstiout in their consequences to
all our great hitiastrial inttrests, as to call loudly
for relief at tlidfhands of t rose whit have'the wis

measure at least ) rests with the people; and, con
trolled by an erklightened kublic opinion, I don u t
doubt it will ba,..tvisely exercised. .
The clear 00 forcible views .you expressed 'in

gathers im /weigh warehouses or not. Ito pours
them into, our markets, and makes our country,
what be very ;naturally terms it, the milt-tub of
the worhil But let the principle be established
that we will.not buy more than we sell—that the
measure opouri exports shall detertiiine and con- t
trol the mptualrwof our imports, then he can no• i
longer grasp our , gold, -but will be' driven to the
necessity lei' taking. in lien thereof, our cotton,
bread-stuffs, protisions, tobacco, and other Agri.' 1
cultural as well as mechanical productions, to the
utmost poisible extent the wants and markets of.
the world will and can consume and bear.* The
feelings and character of the foreign importer
.would becisme radically changed; ho would then
be interested in taking the products of our indus-
and }Aiding*a market for them among the na
tions of the; earth, at the, highest prices the mark
ets of the , world could afford, in, order that be
might sell to us an equal amount of the products '
of foreign lindastry.
It is a moral and political iniquity so to frame
our revenue laws as to expose' our legal tender to
the clutelths of the foreign importer, or even to
the foreign creditor. The framers of our consti
tution wisely provided that all debts must be paid ,
in gold or isilver,nnd yet our modern philosophers '
and statesmen have so 'framed our revenue laws
as to render this salutary constitutional provision
ruinously impracticable, and consequenty, incon
sistent with the spirit of •the constitution.. Both
cannot stand.
The welfare, happiness, and independence of
our people, and nation, require that our precious ,
motels be Shielded and protected. i Their exposure'
to the hazl&d of being carried off; keeps us in a
condition . Which is worse than colonial vassalage: _
Virtue andipatriotism loudly call upon us to throw
off this yoke, and "anew to declare 'ourselves What
we of right Ought to be, free and independent. In
the absence of a'suitable and efficient remedy, ob
tained thrhugh &Winn' legislation, and under the
possible, if not probable, contingency that relief
from this a urea nannot be had in 'less than three
years, it *miles the American people grately to
consider the propriety, if not absolute necessity;
'of resolving thattheywill cease to buy, as . far as
pnicticable,any and all articles of foreign "produc-
tion until; the proper remedy, by governmental
-entietmenti, can bh obtained.
I am very sure, there is virtue,;self-denial, and
patriotismilenough among the good and Christian
people of this country to take this affair into their
own hand and apply this, the only remedy left •
them, to procure present relief; and in due course
of tittle, tcs obtain such a modificatiolyof our rev
enue laws 'fis will effectually prevent a recurrence
of similar disaster in all future time.
The principle to be incorporated in 'our revenue
laws to secure us against an increase of foreign in
debtednesi is simple, and of easy application, re
quiring Merely, "That, leaving out of view, both
the export and invert of gold and silver, when
ever the exports In value do not erpid, or exceed
the imports in value, during any fiscal quarter of .
any fiscal year, the Secretary of the Treasury shall
be required to raise the duty on; the, value of all . '
articles of foreign import, (exceptingsuch articles.
as are herein exeinpted from the provisions of this
act,) 10 per cent.' within twenty days after the ex-'
piration of such fiscal quarter or; quarters during
which the :exports in value do not equal or exceed
the import's in value as aforesaid."
But we have an account to settle with John Bull
4 Co., whi:ch shohld engross the immediate atten
tion of our national legislature ! We have unwise
ly sufferedlEngland and other Eiiropeau States to
carry off three hundred millions of dollars of our
best stock.., and .sweat two hundred millions of
" gold and silver out of our national industry. We
I
for our productions? Not at all. Some of our
'agricultural productions pay more than one thou
sand per cent. in foreign 'ports.' Throwing open
our ports would, therefore, perfect freedom to
the rest of the world to trade with us, but no free
dom to•the United States to trade with the rest of
the world. We would open our ports, while those
of foreign nations would ba dosed against us.. But
even assuming that the ports of the world would
be open to us (an assuraption entirely out of the
question), it would be no.reason 'whatever why we
should give unlimited license to foreign nations
to force their productions upon tis to • any greater
extent than they will allow us to force ours upon
them. In other - words, to run qs into debt, and
inflict upon us all the evils consequent thereupon.
The term free trade, therefore,„tus used in this
country in regard to our foreign commerce, does
not, only not convey the idea which the word im
plies when applied to our domestic commerce as
between'the States of this Union, but exactly the.
reverse. It means no freedom of trade by us with
the rest of the world, except on• such terms and
conditions as are imposed upon us; but perfect
freedom to the rest. of the world to trade with us,
without any terms or conditions; whatever, so far
as wo are concerned.* •
The revenue of our goveniment from foreign
imports being dependant upon the ability of the
people to pay for and coliseum them, must neces
sarily fall off in proportion AS our currency is di
minished and the industry of the country crippled
and weakened. Idleneze, Or rather want of em-
ployment begets poverty among the people; and
an impoverished people cannot prevent the na
tional treasury from becoming empty, and the na-,
tional government from becoming bankrupt. Yet,
in despite of this self-ovident truth, a reduction of
the duties on the products of foreign industry is
now gravely recommended by our national admin
istration. It is a miserable attempt, .to galvanize
the public revenue, and to lure the country into
deeper indebtedness, to keep up the national in
come, now sinking under the exhausting process
of paying in coin for the predicts of foreign at
the expense of American induidry. It is clear as
_the sun 'at noon-day, that our national industry
first; and our national treasury next, must bear
the whole shock. What! fill tha,treasury of the
government, when the purro of bur national in
dustry is empty! Have our statesmen become de..
merited, or have - they devoted theMselves to exper
imenting upon the sufferings of, the people, to as ,
certain how much more they can? bear ? •
In view of this diabolical attempt still 'further
to crush the people, it becomes the More necessary
for them to.act irrespective of national legislation,
to take this , matter into their own hands, and man-
ifest something of the spirit of 76, by resolving
that they will cease to buy the: products of for
eign industry to the utmost practicable extent, and
to persist in this'course until relief is obtained—
until we have recovered from our exhanstion,,and
our national industry, with all the blessings fithr
ing therefrom, is again set in motion.. •
The system of political economy instituted by
the merchant-princes and bankers of Great Brit
ain, (with the R0th:46116 at their head and backed
by the.lords of the realm,) differs from our own in'
this important particular: their object is to force
the largest amount of the products of their na
tional workshop into the markets of the world, at
the lowest possible cost at which they can be
sweated and ground out of the blood and sinews
of the laboring
,population, and, in return' bring
back the largest amount of gold and good stocks,
ours included, with the smallest amount of raw.
material required to make more fabrics, arid get
more gold. If our national indtistry' were to re ,
double its energy. and exhaust all the mines of
California, nnd as much further south as the eye
of filibusterism ran extend, the maw of John Bull
& Co. is large enough to swallow all, and cry for
more.'
On the other hand, as if intending to play dou
bly into the hands of Groat Britain, and the utber
European states, our patriotic legislators have pur-
sued the suicidal policy of so regulating our reve
nue laws, as to enable them to force the largest,
amount of their manufactures upon us, and the
largest amount of gold out of us. If this be pot
so, will any one explain the significant and start-'
ling fact that the principles of the Act of '46, if
not the bill itself, were actually submitted . to the
inspection and approbation of the British go%•ern
mont before they were presented to the American.
Congress. The history of that act, from its incep
tion to the final relating vote, is yet to We written.
In a Republic like ours. no system of public pol
icy can ho permanent which has not specitil re
gard to the security and well-being of our national
industry. This has been strikingly illustrated ,ip
the political history of this cou.itry, as the mem
orable era of 1840 has abundantly testified—and
it militia yet more strikingly illustrated in the; fu-
ture hil-toiy of the present national administration.
At , already indicated. the well-being of our na
tional industry lies at the very foundation of that
system of political eeonotny which is adapted -to
.our country. It is the ouill ... , ysteni for a Republic:
No other can or will be tolerated. for arty length
of time. fur the reason, that the • people - Who fare
injured can soon redress the wrong by. thh,' simple
but mighty power of the ballot-box. There can,
therefore, be no permanency in any system of na
tional policy, which tends to faVor foreign nations
at the expense of our own.t
The people are honest, bpi a large portion of our
politicians arc corrupt, and not only corrupt, but
ignorant,' shamefully, stupidly ignorant of the real
wants and neccsnities.of the people, and. (h i e coun
try. They are not niatesmen, Oil low triasters,
who glory. if •in their *home; at least in their
cunning tend management of the political fa ro
bank, to which. they prostitute their time aad In
lents,''aml of which they are the Presiding spirits.
-Whence this evil? Why
,is it; that the people,
honest - anti patriotic :Ls - they arc, commit the af
fairs of the government to such unworthy- hands?
The cause, and remedy lie in a nut-shell. The
former, is the non-attendance of the pe4le at the
primary meetings," to nominate suitable' emoli
•dates to fill the various offices of our municipal,
State and national governments.] The latter con
side in the faithful discharge of this 'duty. '. .
This business of attending primary meetin g s
has heretofore been left too,much to the' idle, the
brawling, and the vicious, by whom the machinery
of making nominations, &dna Omit-able taa prds.
ident, has, to a lamentable extent, been managed
and controlled. This is the doorat which corrup
tion and imbecility eater our plctesof public groat
This Republic is based upon the virtue, intelli
gence and patriotism of the people. r And not only
so, but upon the intelligent and faithful r discharge
' of the duty which the people Orem to the govern

obligation imposed upon every good citizen, to at.
