The following rem - Amiens - were then reported,
through. Mr..COeliran. ,
Witsnaa, It is one of ' the rights' as well us
duty to Freemen to meet together, and express their
views of public men mid measureep And whereas
the time is rapidly approriching when the nation
will'bo culidd upon to select suitable person for
the °give of President of the United States—and .
Whereas the question as to whom shall be nominat
cif as the candidate of the greatstlemoeratic party
that elected the lamented Harrison, is now agitated,
end the names of different distinguished citizens,
have bee.h presented nomination to be sUpperted
for that-office in 1814; wo the citizens of Dauphin
county, with proper deference 'for the opinions of
• others, take the opportunity of ,declaring our. opin
ions on this subject by the following resolutions.
Resolved, That the end of a Republic;ufgovern
inent being to promote the happiness of the peo-'
ple, it.becomes the ditty of our rulers go, to admin
ister the laws ; and -of our law makers so to frame
them as to effect the greatest possible 'good and the'
least possible evil. -
Resolved, That we are fully Impressed with the
important interests involved in the result of the
hex( Presidential contest. That we. are unwaver
ingly attached to the patriotic pririciples upon which
Gen. Harrison was elected to the.Preeidencythat
we deplore the melancholy event that deprived our I
country of the services, measures and councils, of
that illustrious Chief whom a nation mourned—
and we desire that the great and trim dernoeratie
party of the country, stipuld , have a candidate for
the Presidency in 1844,whose integ ity, patriotism,
principles and, tttleriti Would, insure ihm success "of
the. measures contemplated President,Harrison.
Resolved, That: we are „firhilc• iii opinion ~that
Gen'. Winfield Scott,: the-Hero of Chilip.ava,
ljridgew:iter, and Lundy , s Lne; the gallant soldier
who has freely bled in defence of his countrY and
shed renown upon her valor and fatite---the tried
interim and_aneompliail6d civilian is entitled to the
confidence and. support of his countryman - ; and
his devoted fittachment to Gen. 1 - Itirrison and his
principles, are sufficient guaranties.that if elevated
to the Presidency he would carry opt the'true prin-,
'ciples of the *government, and sustain,:the true in.
- terests the country. • . •
Resolbcd, That- to Gen. Scott we lookAta one
•
who has lived a life of unquestionable honor,-who
givria the best seeurity - for his future conduct in the
trophies 'of his peal life; the course of undeviating
. integrity and public virtue—of gallantry in the field
• and - rnoderation hi IriuMpliLLthe 'sober virtue of - a
great and geed man, whom prosperity hag never
tainted. .
Resoled, That with oar friends who 'have lately_
. met at Pittsburgh, we believe - the only proper mode
placing a candidate for th'e Presidency in nomi
nation, is through a 'National Convention, fairly
- • elected by the people; and that although we pre
fer Gen. Winfield Scott to all others as the
date of the Democratic Harrison party of the Union,
yet beillginQre_ottached-to.ourpripciples—than to
any man, We'pleilge'otirselves to support ally can
didate who may honestly receive the nomination
. -of 'a National Convention.
Resolved, As the sense of this meeting, that pro
tective duties are in etriet.confolinio to the spirit
and letter of the Constitution of the United States—
, that - they tend eventually to lower the price of
goods, encourage agriculture by creating a home
inartfet 4 give employment to our own citizens in
, oar own country, instead of maintaining
s the anti
jects foreign nations—increase commerce by ex-
fending internal trade and by aflbrding articles of
export, and preserve public. morals ty substituting
' industry for idleness. -
Resolved, That when under the operation of a
protective tarilf, the nation has enjoyed an unex
ampled degree -of prosperity which can only. be
perpetuated by-a steadfast support of theprotective
system.
4oked, Th it PROTECTION TO AMERI
CAN INDUSTRY be inscribed upon our banner,
and that we rejoice lb the' open and undisguised
avowal of the gallant SCOTT, who says, " I stn
not only in favor of a tariff_for revenue but also for
protection." • •
Resolved, That no candidate for President shall
\\. receive our votes who is not an open, undisguised,
unelpiiimealsplvoCate for the protection of the indite: ,
try of our country.
Resolved, That in the present system of trade
between this country and Great Britain under the.
"Compromise law, our government acts as the
protectors of the . subjects of Her Majesty queen
Victoria, rather than of the citizens of our own
country, by. admitting into our ports the manufac
'mei of „Great Britain at, almost noininal duty,
while, she refuses to admit into her ports any of
_ . our produce unless her subjects are at the point of
. . starvation,
After the reading df the roe( lotions, and the
'question being on their adoption : ... '.-
• Jesizs S. WALLACE Moved to amend, by adding_
' thereto other reSOlutioris, strait - ow, with a view of
placing the sentiments of the meeting, and the
• .friends of Gen. Scott, in such a light before the
Public, in relation to a Tariff, for ..Protection, as
may ever prevent those Set/tin - Tien') 3- frchifbeing mis.

frieuds: I
Inasmuch as ,the eventful and protentotis crisis
which has arrived in the commercial and monetary
alfalfa of our -Union, tends convincingly to . show
the false and erroneous policy that has been pur
sued, and calls loudly for a- remedy for the 'evils
under which- we are laboring, it beComes the peo
ple, iri their primary assemblies to enquire into The
causes which have produced these results, and saw
gest 'such remedies as may be deemed expedient.
The experience ofthe few 'last years has clearly
demonstrated that the Tariff System is fundimen
tally defective; as not affording equal protection to
. every part of our country; as offering a.premium to
the manufacturers of other countries to the detriment
of our own, and as fostering that extravagant sys
tem of imports which has placed us at the mercy
of foivikn-qeditors; laid, us. under tribute to the
capitalists of ; Europe, stid given, to 'English agents

duties to protint the United States against the rigid
trevenuepolicy, and unfair ekactletis of our tine
atlantic ' • .- • •
Resolved, That not only will protection directly
benefit the domestic laborer, by securing . certain
employment and adequate wages, but indirectly its
healing influencitiwill extend to all the Vast ma ,
chinery of our civil poliey; it will tattle out fluc
tuating currency; dispel commercial distress; relieve
the bankrupt treasuries of our nation, and the vari
ous States; revivify the stagnant arteries of every
branch of business, and again cover the seas with
the swelling canvass of a prosperous commerce;
&soft's'', That we ask no high; all exacting
Thrift; we wish not to copy the policy of England;
we simply ask attention to the first law of nature',
self-protection.; that obtained, we would throw,
abroad the flag of amity to all nations, and ask from
all fair and reciproial trade. We ask no high
Ttriff—for it might superinduce an extravagant ad
ministration of government; mi - wanton& a basis
of ditties es will meet the necessities of a republi
can simplicity ingovernment, and give impulse to
die holiest toil of artisan, farmer and laborer.
Resolved, That weak for each policy of rove-,
nue as will naturally subserve, the interest of every,
geographical division of ottr.Enion, and every de
partment of industry:
Resolved, That the degradation of the working
classes is the fruitful canoe' of arbitrary. power, and
we find in European nations, where taxation is the
most onerous and the aristocracy 'revel in luxury,
there the of the operative arednosegriev
ous, and a teeming population starving in the midst
of seeming plenty, givirevidence of the degrada
tion of the
of
man. It is therefore the, very
safeguard of nur republican institutions, to prevent
vacillations in the 'price of labor,and to yield to all
who labor in'the sweat of the brow; steady, ample
and unfluctuating .emphyment. The price of
wages and their steadiness are the true standard
of a nation's prosperity 'end thit graduating mea
sure of a people's happiness. We thetefore look
with regret at the fluctuation and reduction of com
pensation to the laboring classes, the consequent
result of the stagnation of - one manufacturing in
terests; superinduced by ah abandonment of our
protective systein. If the homb policy—the do
mestic energy, and our own national powers be
not fostered, it is evident that the fountains of bus,
iness will be chilled and in blight be extended to
every class of community. The operative must
suffer by reduced wageti and the scarcity of work,
and the very bane arid sinew of national strength
—the hardy yeoman and hard toiling mechanic,
must be crushed in the general ruin.
Resblved, That our country is prepared from the
intelligence of her, general community, the ingent,
day of hoc mechanics, the-assiduity of het' opera
tivet-u4d the enterprise of tier capitalists, to :as-
Some herplace as a great manufacturing and pre

orable wealth open to all alike, mist lead to the
awst glorious natural results, inasmuch as we ex:
cel Europe'in natural resources, mental and physi
cal force, and only need similar protection to pro
duce an unexampled state of, prosperity'and perfect
independence from. entangling alliances. • •
Resolved, that a perfect and permanent uhion of
policy and interest, (such as was contemplated by
- the framers of our Constitution, 'end the first Con
gress under - thot - Consiitutioli - whieli enacted; that
"duties be laid on foreign-goods, for the protection
of domestic manUfacture,") is only to be oblainc_ '
by. doviloping our own resource's mid upeni 'g
ready . markets for the , tali 'produce of the planter
and farmer, and the cotton and woolen fabrics of
our manufacturers. This can bo•' obtained, 'and all
purposes of revenue effected .by placing exclusive
duties on such articles of foleign growth and man ,
ufactures as our country is manufactaring or pro
ducing of equal quality_and_.equal price,_arid_liy„
levying higher imposts on those articles which
being neither produced or manufactured 'in our
country, cannot-detrimentally effect the prosperity
or industry of. our citizens. .
Resolved, That the home manufacture of our
great staple of cotton, Oats equally the grower
and consumer. because it can then be afforded for
thejabor of our own operatives and the produce of
our planters and farmers; but if the raw material
be shipped abroad for manufacture, our own labor
and produce will not be received but the specie in
our country is drained to , pay for it, and our popu
latioii is taxed with the additional labor and
Sex
penses incurred in the European manufactory..
Resolved, That our Statei VI ith a 'debt, contracted
for public improvements, owes it to herielf to
move ardently in • the cause of protection.—
'Her canals and railroads can hover be productive,
if Oldie' to contain a,community of producers on
ly. If "we are to be left at the mercy of foreign
countries far all our necessary supplies of manufac
tured articles; her farmers and planters will be
'•without adequate markets, abroad or capacity of
consumption ut hotne, het divisions of labokpill
be broken down, and the detnand for it cease, ,and
her people suffer as do the unemployed thousands
of Eurdpe, This will create such .a .witheting of
the poductive faciiltles of the country, that our im
provementawill become stagnants and tffe people
burdened with talus to pay interest on our State
debts, while the works for which the debts was in-
mined, will remain mostly unomploYed or fall in
to decay;
Resolved; That the dennieracy of Jefferson.
when he said That "to be independent for the coot
forts of life,wo must fabricate them ourselves 7 is the
democracy which we profess; that the democracy
of Pennsylvania in the golden days of George
Wolf, When she said, through her Legislature,
hat she could not conFent to an abandonment of

and supporters of Oen. Winfield Scott, in 184?„
