quite certoiri that we have the power to do so." He
should not hai.e uttered so severe a sarcasm;—it is
scarcely necessary for us to say that we have at rog:ated

friends ef Mr C ',LEMON have placed him before the

action of the,'4atioatd Convention, and of course have
thereby made him a candidate independent of that be-
Ho is thus, as wo conceive, by their own act

sionsto the arbitrament of the democratic delegates in
Convention assembled.
The Ad.wate.dwells upon the circu-nstance that the
Richmond Enquirer asserts that ••Mt• V .I.N Beans de
anuacesaudettrly disclaim; Cr! priy.sant Tariff law."
This we sliallnot gainsay—but the avowal of Mr VAN
BDItEN'S opinions of the present-Tariff law,
do
cs not
prove that be is opposed to a Tariff for Revenue, so as
sessed as to afford incidental protection to our mann
factures. Tha Ndeocata should renannher this.
Tho qu2sations the Advocate gives from Mr Krx•
D•LL, NIC EASTDD WI, a Congressman from New H amp-
ICENWLDY, of Indiana, against the pro
tettive system, are not at all to be taken as tho senti
ments of the wholoparty. MrCt AY has many friends

Chill and. his party would fool highly indignant if the
notions of a few of his free trade supporters at the
South, were taken as the views of the whole coon party
on;dae TPtiff.
he_Advocate also quotes an article from our paper
intended to show up the miserable policy of raising re
venue for distribution. and says that to assume, as dues
the piece referred to, that "every cent of duty on for
eign ertidesinoreases by so much the price of that ar
ticle; is not a friendly view of the protective system."
Butlnour opinion it is the true view, the Advocate to
dna.contrary netwithstandiug. We are free to confess
that we arc not among those who believe it is good pol
icy to raise immense sums of money by a Tariff, beyond
the relsonable wants of the Government—nor of those
who think it best to a ccumulate revenue, even if w e
were compelled ton throw it into the sea afterwards. - 7
We look upon the Whig policy of distribution as perni
cious in the extreme; we believe that every considera
tion of expediency and equal justice, points to such a
scale of duties as will supply the economical wants of
the government.; and that such a Tariff judiciously laid,
will afford "fair protection" to our m anufactures—and
what is better, the aid it affords will he permanent,

to see so great a multitude of mechanics, thus joining
together for the amelioration of their condition, with
out the slightest demonstration of ill-feeling or violence,
either in word or deed, appealing to the justice and
honesty of the employer, and sustaining that appeal by
a dignified and manly deportment.
We learn from the same paper that at a meeting in
the evening, about fifty of the employers came forward
and contributed liberally to a fund, for the support of
those who had been deprived of employment on account
of the turnout. Seventy one employers have agreed to
the bill of prices.
NEW ORLEANS--THE FREE NEGRO LAW. — The
New Orleans Diamond, of the 15th, says:—The Crim
inal Court was several days last week the theatre of
interest and attraction for colored persons who came
here subsequent to 1624, and prior to 1839, growing
out of one of our Recorders construction of the laws
relating to them. The tesult. contrary to general ex,
pectation, was in their favor, anda glorious victswy it
was, too, as it enables them to go from, and return to,
the State again, notwithstanding the law of 1843 con
cerning colored persons, only authorized natives born,
or those residing here before 1825 to do so. That the
il -cision of the court is itt accordance with the spirit or
letter of the law, we are greatly in doubt.
Hew no You Feet ?—The editor of the Pennsylva
nian, who was a candidate for Congress in a strong
wbig district, views his defeat with a philosophical calm
ness, that we seriously recommend to Messrs. Craig
and Brackenridge of this district. Hear him, gentle
men, and view the matter ss he does, and you will not
regret your defeat so sorely:—
" And yet it is sometimes a comfortable thing to be
defeated. One walks home after such a disaster with
no particular care upon his mind. He is perfectly free
f r om'solicitude. He can go to bed with no fear of
haring his minority slumbers disturbed by the roarin;
shouts of a lamp light procession. It is not expected
that be should shiveringly arise at or 3 o'clock in the
morning, to make thankful speeches for the honor
which has been done to him, or to invite Tom. Dick and
Harry to come in and soil his carpets and drink his
wine.
"He can take his meals and reed the returns in quiet,
unannoyed by either bell or knocker. He is not re
quired to give cold cuts and savory collations to cele
brate the triumuph. Oa the contrary, all post election
expenses are dispensed with in his case on account of
the cold cut previously given to him at the polls. When
he walks forth, his way through the streets is clear
rind unembarrassed. Nobody squeezes his hand and
asks for his influence. He is not obliged to perplex his
brain in the coinage of piquant replies in answer to
flat and wearisome compliments. Success must smile
but defeatmay indulge in his humor. And then what
cares he for securities ? Ile is safe enough within him
self. His affairs. too, may stand as they are—no wind
ing up and packing up—no changes to disturb his
household gods or to distress his adhesiveness. No
winter in Washington or sojourn at Harrisburgh to be
provided for—no peiplexities about other people' bu
siness—no cogitation uhouthow to remain popular and
to satisfy all the world and the world's wife.
lie who is defeated, may' think as he pleases, go
where he pleases, wear what he pleases. He is neither
compelled to have opinions, nor to define positions.—
He has no dignity to support, pinching him under the
arms and rendering him as uncomfortable as an unac
customed coat, and whether he is democratic or aris
tocratic in his deportment, nobody knows and nobody
cares.
Who, then, let us task, who would not be ndefeated
candidate? Who would not be like daffier "in love
and pleased with ruin 1" It is fur the "constituency"
to repent of blonde, s, not fur him, the free, the untram

GROWTH OF MICHIGAN.
Those who have not examined closely the returns of
the s:veral linitedStates censussses, are not generally
aware that Michigan, for the last two periods of ten
years, has increased in population at a higher rate than
any other State or Territory; and that she has even out
stripped Ohio, as to rate of increase, at the same rela
tive stages of their growth. From 1820 to 1830, the
rate of increase of the population of Michigan was
225 per cent, the next highest during the same period
was Illinois, which was 185 per cent; Alabama, 142
per cent; &c. Finns 1830 to 1840,her rate of increase
was 622 per Cells; or, from a population of 23,004.
(exclusive of the counties now embraced in Wisconsin,)
to 212,267. The next highest State or Territory, as to
rate of increase during the same period, was Arkansas,
being 221 percent; then Illinoin at 202 per cent; Mis
sissippi, 174 per cent: Missouri, 173 per cent; Indiana,

THE BUTTER TRADE—ITS MISNIXIN AGE-
LIVERPOOL, 0c10ber2,1243.
lls An Sin:—ln a former letter I called your atten
tion to the unpleasant fact that much American But
ter was sold for 5 or 6 cents, which by good manage
ment would as readily bring three times the price.—
This is too great a sacrifice to ignorance, and I am
gratified to observe that it has arrested the attention
of your Agricultural Society. The few additional re
' marks 1 have time to make at present, are principally
statistical, but may prove interesting to the readers of
the Reporter.
In London, the butter of Epping and Cnmbridge is
--- •
in the highest repute, the cows whichprodace the arm
er feed,during the summer in the shrubby portions of
Epping Forest, and the!leavesqef the trees and nume
rous wild plants, are supposed 'to improve the flavour
of the butter. The Cambridgeshire ctAve feed one
part of the year on chalky uplands, and the other on
rich meadows and fens, and the butter is salted and cu
red before being brought to market. The butter of
the mountains of Wales and Scotland, and the moors,
commons, and heaths of England, is of excellent quali
ty—when properly managed, it is often superior to
that produced from the richest meadows.
A considerable quantity of butter is made in Ire
land, but generally it is very inferior to that of Great
Britain. , --but this is the consequence rather of the want
of cleanliness and attention, than any inferiority of milk.
Annatto is used to give a , good rich yellow color to
the butter—it is cured best for keeping by a mixture
of fine loaf sugar and salt, powdered in the proportion
of 4 ounces of the former to half a pound of the latter,
and used in the proportion of an ounce to a pound of
butter.
Some of the best Irish, and to my own knowledge,
seine American. niter being waited and repacked,
have been sold ai DursLitsliire and Cambridgeshire
