Inst and Equal Protection.
'lt isl often asserted, by the advocates of
k 'Say's' British tariff bill, that "it affords
equal ketection, to all, the farmer, the me
chaniC.and the manufacturer;" and to in-
duce people to believe the assertion, portions
of the bill are qupted,. showing how evenly
duties ere impos4d. ' The raw material and
the manufactured article are placed in the
same schedule, when the v,alueof the article
arises from the cost 4f manufacturing it. Is
this equal protection? Who does not see,
at a glance, thatit ie discriminating in favor
of the pauper labor of Europe? An emin
neat statesman has "laid, "When a tariff is .
protective, alike, to all classes, it is the most
unequal tariff which can be framed ;". and
so it-evidently is,
Laberi; under they operation of 31? Kay's
tariff hill, must either be reduced within 30
per cem,, of a level with that of Europe, or
capital sink its profits in proportion, in order
to preVent an inundation of articles of a for
eign ma turacture, *hich, would create di's
tress among labore,rs, bankruptcy among
manufacturers, and ruin- among .our mining
inte.resti. This is no fiction, or wild asser
tion for the sake of Making political capital,
but a sober reality. Already do we find in
the foreign news, thet "several.of the En
glish markets have experienced the effect
of the pent! Tariff which goes into opera
tion, in the United , States, on the first of

Honesty rawaritied by liberality.
A week ago on Ftiday, as we are credi
bly in(orkned, Geo. F. Knapp, Esq. of Car
bondale, lost a pocket-book while on the
road between Carbtindale and Wilkesbarre,
which'. contained 4255,00 in money, and
prorMnisSory notes to the amount of $2159,
00. .After his arrival at Wilkesbarre, the
loss was, discovered, / Mr. Knapp immedi
ately offered a rewtird of $lOO,OO, and re
turned to Carbondale. Hearing nothing
from the lost property, he again went to
Wilkesbarre, from ttbich point after a thor
ough search, he retired to' his home in the
said valley of Corbin]. On Monday of last
week itn recovered( l said pocket-book and
contents, A young man by the name of

Mr. David Thomas, Manager o. the Le

ufactares iron at $l4 per ton." ..
The assertion .1 unqualifiedly deny—nev

never . saving beep made at these Works, or
any others in this country, as far as my in

price. .
I knoW of no other. plan to maimfacture
Iron in this dountry at. $l4 per toil, than to .
reduce everthing, raw material mid labor,
(90 per cent of the iron, or the cost of ma
king iron, is.labor) to the lowest standard of
prices for labor ip England.
As to prospects before us, the only thin , "
that will save the Iron business in Pennsyl

in competition with the Tariff ofl 846; friends
Of truth, and of having The voice of Wayne
County fairly and truly, represented-were
present at the-Democratic County Meeting,
held in the Court-house on Tuesday evening
last; and we do assert and affirm, without
fear of contradiction, that the resolution in
favor oftbe Tariff .of 1846,- which in the re
port of the proceedings of said ateetiog,„ as
published in the "Herald,'.' is reported to
have been adopted, was not adOpied or even
laid before the meeting to be voted upon.—
And further : we believe it would have been
triumphantly rejected, had its friends, if it
had any, dared to have presented it to the
people. 1

From the Ilarrisiurg Argus.
, .
THE QNK Thai! PanicieLE,H-President
POLK has borne his' testimony in. flior of
the adoption of this principle. Ilminediately
on being notified' of his nomintition,, to the
distinguished offi:te which he n w holds, he
declared hisdeteratinatioa not to
fir i be a tandi- _
ti
date r re-electiOn, and be has $ nce author
{ ized she ofticit4aPer sat Wiiihingion to
I state that he. adheres to that determination. ,
In his letter of acceptance of the nomina
tion of the altiinore Conventicib,` he says;
I deem the,present to he- a .Proper.occii
sion to declare, that if the imminent:at made
by the ConVention shall be confirmed_by ; the
people, and result in my election,Tshall
env openthe- discharge of .the high 'and
solemnsolen dutii s
of:'',. the office with the settled
purposeofn
, t beingat candidate fhr re-elecion
In the even t of; my election, itOhall be my
constant aiM, by it strict, adhe'ence-to the
old republican landmarks; to maintain and
preserve the public prosperity and at the
end of four
,years,l am resolved to retire to'
private life. I in 'assuming du's position, I
feel that iot only impose on myself
.a
salutary reS m 44
int, but that I thentosi
effective me ns its my 2 powir, gflenabling the .
i
Democraticipar . O.to make a free selection of
a successor t o
maybe best ralculated.to
. .
give effect to .their urill,:anii giiard all the
interests oftir . biloved country' .
.'The latter paft of the last sentence is a
triumphant i vinditation of.. the principle for
-which we i. now L contend.
.. Mr. Polk had
long'heen in puhliclife,. He had, therefore
ample oppOrtunity:of estimating the -evil
