Tits ClacutAn..—The attention of the leader is
respectfully directed to the communication of Wm.
Foster, Esq., in the PEW of to day. It will be seen
that in 1832 interrogatories were sent to our menu•
focturrrs by Mr. McLean, then Secretary of the Irmo
ury, and that they were sent in compliance with a
resolution of Congress, adopted on motion of Mr.
Adams, as chairman of the committee on 'Manufac
tures. The questivni recently is.ued by Mr Walker,
are a true copy of those of 1832. Nothing was then
said about the impropriety of answering them—the
officers appointed to collect the informatioa culled
fur, were every where well received and the requir•
ed information willingly given.
'TialetterofS %V BLACK, E.q ,inanswerto
certain interrogatoties propounded to him, and other
eandidates for the Legislature, by ■ committee of the
National Reform Association of Allegheny county,
will be found in this motning's parwr. It is worth,
of a careful reading,
TIIC Fat-Teat OPLRATITIS—EDUCJLTION,
is Well known that the opetatives in our Cotten
Factories have refused to labor, unless their employers
shall agree to adopt the Ten Hour System. Much
has been said upon the subject, and we are pleased to
say, in a proper spirit. Abuse is uncalled for and can
not aid either of the partied. It is a subject upon
which we should "reason together," calmly and dis
pasiionately.
The operatives assign reasons for their course, by ,
us regarded as unanswel mile. I , is said by them that
twelve hours is too long fur them to labor, many of;
them being !oung in ye'rs. That it is destructive of
health, and leaves them no time fur mental improve- I
ment ; and that most of them ore destitute of educe
lion. and some of them can neither read nor write.l
This ought not to be so; and no time should be lust in:
effecting a proper and just change. The Legislature!
of Pennsylvania, has provided for the education of a'l,
1
rich and poor. and no state of circumstances ought tut
exist to prevent any portion of our youth frow!
freely participating in the benefits of the Common
School System. The universal education of the peo-1
ple I. tco closely associated with our public happiness
to be per mitted
. to be interfered with by private inter-1
eats. It is a great and essential pillar of the temple
of liberty, and all our energies should be faithfully ex-.
cited for the universal intellectual culture of the rising,
age. This good old Commonwealth has organized
system of Common Schools, that is expected in time
to give a high character to our civil institutions. Means
has been provided for extending useful knowledge and
ecienceto every habitation within our borders, and no
part of the rising generation should be denied a parti
cipation in the blessings dispensed. Is it really true,
that a portion of our youth are so situated as to be
cut off from sharing in the benefits of our school sys
tem I 113ut-b, it would seem, is really tire ease. The
operatives employed in our Factories, have nu time
left them fur the cultivation of the mind; after labor.
ing twelve hours, and attending to other indispensable
matters, no time is left fur acquiring education, and
they must ioevitably remain in the grossest ignorance.
But, we think the time has come for effecting a change
satisfactory to all, and injurioas to none. There is a
spirit of enquiry aroused on the subject; a spirit of
enlightened philandirspy is abroad among the peo
ple. The means of human happiness are increasing
around us. There should be none so poor as to be
denied a share in the common store-buuse of know•
ledge. Learning and letters, were never designed for
the few thathave been so fortunate as to acquire wealth.
If confined to the wealthy alone, the deep foundations
of human science might have remained to this hour,
impenetrable to the searching enquiries cf a Homer
and a Hessiod—a Shakspeare and a Halley. No, a
nobler spirit burns upon our altars. Here the highest
and the humblest stand upon Nature's level. The
poor man who has encountered life's troubles in strug
gling fora humble home—who has trained his chil
dren to reading, and inspired them with reflection—'
may yet behold the son that follows him to tire fields,
shining in the temple of learning, or adorning the halls
of legislation. The world is filled with examples of
unaided genius having risen from the dust of indigence,
to the highest posts of honor What else took the
daring COLE MIIVA from his loom and made him the
navigator of seas, and the discoverer of continents?
What else raised Sir CLOUDS/AT SHOVEL, from the
bench of the shoemaker, to the high station of Rear
Admiral of England? What else unlocked the chains
of Slavery from T Rite ct, and distinguished him as a
scholar soil Poet? What else elevated PRIDEUX,
from the humble condition of college cook, to the hon.
ors of a religious prelate and teacher? What else
called forth the inventive powers of a HooARTH, the
most scientific artist of his time, and caused him to
exchange the work-shop of the mechanic, for the
cloister of the author.? What gave the celebrated Dr.
Mou aTa IN, the son ofa beggar, ecc.lssiastical honors 't
That directed the enquiring mind of the astronomer
FLRGITWOR, from watching his flock by night, to &con
templation of the heavens, to gaze upon the stars and
to allot them their stations? That made an unrivalled
philosopher and statesman of Fax:tette, the Printer,
and converted the inimitable Bufttts, thepoor ploughs
toy of Ayreshire, into the sweetest bard that ever
played or sung 1
E'uvertv has its woes, and wealth its blessings-
WRID: has its paints, and riches its comforts ; but we
shout/ever remember that the mind is the perennial
opting of intelligence and worth, and in this free land
the humblest should be permitted to drink freely at its
fountain. We have given the subject an investigation
due to its importanc.e, arid whilst we feat no disposi-
=GUM
lion to censure, we must say, that we believe it to be
the duty of manufacture's, to yield to the wishes of
the operatives. We do not believe, that it would ma.
terially affect their pecuniary interests; theiradvance”
meet to wealth, we doubt not, would be quite as r:eP.
tain. Let all approach the subject in a spirit of jos
rice, and we have every confidence, en arraasen ent
can be effected, mike satisfactory and just. to opera.

Ciloucester has probably nearly doubled the interest in
that business of any place in the Union, and it is in fact
becoming the great mackerel market for the country.
It will be also for other kinds of fish, particularly hail,
but, the fishing for which is not pursued by any other
people. About 6500 tons of shipping are employed
from ibis port alone in the fishing business, and this
business is also quite important and extensive et the

Mn. Forrort :—Hasing read in the "Pittsburgh
Gazette of the 19th inst., a communication over the'
signature of " A Manufacturer," I have been induced ,
to request that you will publish the following Circular'
and questions, propounded by the Hon. Lewis M . Lane.l
former Secretary of the Treasury, for the infurma
tine of the " American," " Gazette and Journal," as
well as the pugnacious correspondent of the Gazette,
who says that he has been engaged in the manufac- 1
taring business for more than twenty years.
It will he seen that the circular and questions were
transmitted to me in 1832, upwards of thirteen years
ago; consequently, if the redoubtable correspondent)
of the Gazette has been twenty years in the business ,
of manufacturing. it is probable that he has seen them;
before, and may have had these questions propounded
to him by me or some one else about that time.
The principal manufacturers here were all called on
by myself or the person who was employed by the
got ernment with me, to obtain the information through
out the western judicial district of Pennsylvania; and
although I traveled through many of the eastern and
Western counties myself, to obtain the required int*
mation. I have no recollection of having been other
wise than kindly received, respectfully treated. and
courteously answered by manufacturers. Certainly not
one made any attempt to eject me from his premises.
These resolutions were drawn up and submitted tol
Congress by the Hon. John Quincy Adams, at that
time Chairman of the Committee on Manufactures; and
it is but a reasonable conclusion to believe, that if the
interrogatoriea which follow the resolutions, were nut
drawn up by himself, they were submitted for his inspec.
tion and approbation, before they were made public
by the than Secretary of the Treasury. What reason'
then, let me ask, is there for so much squemishnes ,
felt, and so much indignation expressed by Whig jour
nets, and the vulgar slang of the Gazette's correspon
dent, "A Manufacturer," in regard to these questions.
first propounded by Secretary M'Lane thirteen years
ago, and now re issued by Mr. Secretary Walker.
Are they not identically the same, word fur word
Was there any abuse of Mr. M'Lane for asking these
questions about private business transactions? If not.
then why is Mr. Walker assailed with so much vitu
peration for doing just the same thins! This meas
ure then, having originated with Mr. Adams in Con
gress, may be fairly set down as a Whig measure.
And. although I direr from him in politics, and am
strongly in favor of the tariff of 1842, against which
he cast his vote, I never doubted the sincerity of pur
pose for the best interests of the whole country, which
prompted him to seek such information as would ens.'
I ble Congress to act understandingly on the all-impor
, tent and absorbing question of a tariff of duties on
foreign manufactures. And I doubt very much whether
such language as that used by " A Manufacturer," is
calculated to promote the harmony of action in Con.
gross necessary to sustain the ttue interests of Penn-
sylvania. The people should beer in mind, that the
wale not, by any means, a political question. hut
one entirely sectional, end should be carefully and
coolly examined, as great interests are involved in its
just arrangement. Indeed it may be viewed some
what in the light of a suit brought by the people of
the week against the manufacturers of the north, be
fore the Congress of the United States, which sits as
a court of justice to tender a judgment in the case.
The feenter complain that they are lased, too heavily
lazed. in order to build tip and sustain the wealthy
inanufacteters of the north ; the lefts r reply, that they
Lave no morn protection than is necessary to enable
them to compete with foreign imports. and carry on
succerwfully, the operation their business. Petitions
arc poured into Congress, (or the Court,) from both
' the plaintiffs and defendunts in this Canal.. The coutt
appoints men to take testimony in the case (in this ire
' stance the Chairman of the Committee on Nlanutlic
tures and the Secretary of the Treasury,) mho pro
, pound certain interrogatories to the defendants touch
' ing the matter in hearing; but they refuse to answer,
' and threaten to eject the person from their premises
for asking such impertinent questions. These Nets
being made known to the erten by the counsel for the
Plaintiff., he insists on judgment being entered in fa•
vor of his client.. I ask. is such a course calculated
to aid our cause? Respectfully.

LETTER OF S BLACK, ESQ
Sept ID. 1815.
To Wm. E STFAVtinI, JACOB C. GNrAT
KARIG, Jul JOIE,. J , 011 , 1 INW and colier4, Grin
mittee of tho National liefu,to Aa*ocintion of Alle
hvny county.
Gentlemen—l have seen in the• Chronicle f l id
mottling the following questions dlrect.,l to rnytrdi
and sundry others. candidates for the Legislatnrr;
"lat. Do you believe tuankirui have a natural right to
the tl4O of this wilt
"2d. 11• ill yo•s, it elected, use ynur influence to hare
the lands of the States and the United Stoles laid oui
la farms and lots fur the free and exelosive use of or.
!Lll 'eiders, under such restrictions 111 shall allow no
men to hold more than one fat m or 101 l
-11. Ate you opposed to all charters granting ape•
end plivileeesl
You rriviest on answer at the earliest period, and
therefore, with all the despatch possible, I give you
mine.
To the first interrogatory I reply, that. in our awe
o f society, or in any state of society, where the title
to property it recognized, the right to the use of the
soil is not a natural right, hut an acquired one, found
ed on consent. And further, that it is essential to
the existence of civilized society, that the title to prop
erty should be held sacred, and where it is not, indus•
try and labor, victims of anarchy and confusion, must
languish and die. In conclusion, on this question, I
know of no way in which we can make the right to
the u.ie of the soil a natural one, unless, like Hamlet's
crab, wo go backwards, and take un even start with
Adam.
To your second interrogatory my answer is this I
am not in favor of making the public lands free to
the exclusive use of actual settlers or any other
persons. But lam in favor of them being laid out in
farms and sold at the mos: reasonable tate to iIIOW
who wish to settle on and cultivate them, holding that
to be an encouragement to industry. And I will go
to the utmost extent of any law that can be made to
encourage actual settlers in their purchases, and to
keep down forever speculation of any kind on a foot
of them, so long as they heloeg to the Government.
To the third question I answer, No. For I know
that you include in what you cell "special privileges"
the right of way to the Bnititnoro and Ohio Hail
Rood, and for that, called by whatever diabolical
name you please, I em firmly and fully pledged, and
if elected shall employ every effort and ingenuity that
I possess to accomplish its success. Respectfully.
S. W. BLACK.
lij'Tho following epitaph, written by an eccentric
genius, and directed to ho engraved upon his tomb•
stone, must be very satidectory to those who visit
grave yards for obituary information:—
My name, my country, what are they to thee?
What, whether high or low my pedigree?
Perhaps far surpassed all other men,
Perhaps fell below them all—what then?
Suffice it stranger that thou ■ee'st a tomb,
Thou know'st its use, it bides—no matter whom.
A Got.—We agree with a cotempory that Moore
never conceived a more exquitite fancy than the follow
ing by' Amelia:"
"The twilight hours, like birds flew by
As lightly and as free:
Ten thousand stars were in the sky,
Ten thousand on the seal
For every wave with dimple fare.
That leaped up in the air.
Had caught a star in its embrace
And held it trembling there."
