lated by its demand, and the value of the

is compatativoly reduced; when the de~

the syslfntol protection to domestic tn

to dispose of his fabrics lor a higher price;
land'to realize better profiit on his capilnl;

doctrine of that nature is radically wrong.

constantly and diligently toenrn [or them
selves a miserable subsistence. All the
luxuries, many of the comforts. and even
the necessaries ol life, must be denied to
them, while the education ol their ofi
spring must be wholly neglected. These
observations apply to the laborers engaged
in the business ul mining. and transport
ing our coal to market. as well as to the
operatives more directly employed at
manulactories. Alter the demand for
household use is supplied. this article must
seek a market in those districts ol coon
try where manufacturing Industry a
bounds, and the demand lor it increases
or dimtnishes in proportion to the active
operationsol theseestablishments, Hence,
every fire that is extingurshed. and every
wheel that is stopped. lessens the demand
‘lor coal. decreases its value in the mar

at competition lrorn abroad, underselling

The revenues of the Commonwealth are
derived principally from real and personal
estate. and from our railroads and canals.
in relstion to the former. it may be said,
that every dollar shipped for ,the purchase
of foreign fabrics diminishes their value.
depresses the home market. reduces the
profits of the producer, and hence lessens
the amountof revenue paid into the treasu

foreign competition is successful by reason
oflovv duties. in tlrirtng from the home
market the fabric of the (apitalist. hrs in

ttro revenues therelrom are greatly reduced.
The profits from our internal improvements
are still more seriously affected. The raw
material in its transit to die manufat-tory,
atrd the fabric on its way to a market. are
principally conveyed along our canals and
railroads. thereby yielding a handsome re
venue to the Commonwealth. When.
therefore, the manufacturer. unprotected by
ithe government. is compelled to discontin
tue his business. not only the laborers tlte
artizari and the agriculturalist. but the State
}rilso. is seriously injured in the generalde
Lpression of business, the diminished wealth
of the, country, and the reduced value of
icapital.
i ‘jl'he policy of giving fair and reasonable
iprotcciiun to the domestic industry of the
icountry. has heretofore received a support
:so cordial, from wise and patriotic states

national government, as it ell as those who
have preceded the in the administration of

from the insertion of, a few extracts from.
