sight of that sublime objeelof philanthropy, the promotion of tree unrestricted commerce thro' the world. As patriots, wo grieve that a precedent bat been afforded for a kind of legtsltftlon which, If persisted in, will almost certainly loosen, and may rup turn the union. The principal excellence of thelate tariff Is, that tt It ?o contracted oe to pbcmoe no one, that even ittfrkndi An nounce Hon abominationi far by offend ing and Injuring alt, li exctteo tern animotlty In the firincihal oujptrero. Tariffs will never be Impartial. They vritl alxtxtyt, In a great er or tern degree, be the reoulto of ocI/Im com binnfiont if private and public men, through nhkh a majority will be aetured t-j particu lar Interna; and ouch k the blindmoa of uvortce, thai to gra?p a ohort lived partial ifood, the injtnite b I cuing* of union ?will be >taxarded, and may be thromn away. If we may be allowed a shoit digression, we would say, that we have no partiality to tariff* of anv kind, not even to thone which nro laid on Imports for the purpose of rais ing revenue. \Vc suppose that they are ne cessary at present, especially where they v have become the habit of the people, and we are not insensible to the facility they af ford for collecting the revenue. But we >hould rejoice, if by some great improvement in finance, every custom bouse could be shut from Maine to Louisiana. The interest of human nature require that every fetter should be broken from the intercoutsc of nit tionii, thut the mn\t distant countries should exchange all their products, whrthcr of manual or intellectual labor, as freely as the member* of the same community. Ail un t estricted commerce we regard a* the m<?t important nu-ans of diffusing through the world, knowledge, arts, comlort?, civiliza tion, religion, and liberty; nnd to this great cause we would have oitr country devoted. We will odd that we attach no imtx rtatiec to wli t is deemed the chief benefit* of ta riffs, that they save the necessity of direct taxitiou, and draw from a people a huge revenue without their knowledge. In the first placc, we say, thut n tree |.*eop|c ought to know what they j?ay for freedom, nnd t*? pay it joyfully, and that (hey :>li< ulil .is li uly scorn to lie cm-ated into the support i t then* government a* into the .support of tlieirchil dren. In the next plate, a laigr r< venue is no birring. An overflowing tiea*iiry will always lie corrupting to the poveinois m.d the governed. A revenue, rigorously pni portioned to the wants of a people, is ;-s iuikIi ?s can he trusted snfel) to men in powei. Tlic only valid argument agnm*t Mibst anting d'rci". for iudiieet taxation, is tne d dieulty of aseertainu g with preei- - :i 'he pr? petty of the citizen, ll.ippy would it l>v for us, could the tariffs be d> i. ? awav, ???r wiih them would be abolished fruitful i am.es of national jealousies, of *ai, of pi r i'liy, of suiugglitii;, of innumerable fr..nds and crimes, ami of h.irrassim; restraint on that commerce which shonld be lrec as the ?* lllds. We call ihc attention of our leaders to the following extract from the message el ilu Governor of Connecticut, and the letter from Mr Jefferson to Mr. Austin, lately published in the N.vliounl Journal. We shall tollow them with a few remarks of our own: " 1'hc prosperous condition of our Stale, and the quiet and security it: which its citizens pursue their accustomed einpln) meats re:ip the rewards of honest industry, ami exercise the rights of freemen, prove the adaptation <ff its laws to their interests and circumstan ces, as well oh the sound slate of the public sentiment, essential to the efficacy of g? od and wholesome laws, and afford >ust?cuuse of mutual and public congratulation. ??The I?eglslaOire of South Carolina, ad hering to the principles expressed in it* re solutions relative to encouraging 41 domestic industry," heretofore laid before the Gene ral Assembly, ha* resolved that Hl'ter the further aggression by the pasjnge of the tar iff act of 1< 28, it "is restrained from the as sertion of the sovereign rights of the State, by the hope that the magnanimity and jus tice of the good people of the Union will ef fect the abandonment of a system partial in its nature, unjust in its operation, and not within the power*delegated to Congress." Influenced by like views, the Stale of Geor gia bus addressed a reinonstrnncc M to the States in favor of the Tariff," pronouncing that important measure '?an open and vio lent infraction of our compact," and assert ing that it has a right, which it " will nevei( surrender, to demand *ts repeal." The General Assembly of Vir>;inh, concurring in the opinion* of South Carolina and Geor gia M as?Hi of the high contracting parties" to the Union, has declared " its deliberate conviction that the acts of Congress, usual ly denominated the tariff Inws, pm'.ed avow edly for the protection of domrstic manufac tures, arc not authorised by the plain con struction, true Intent and meaning of the Constitution." ' " Copies of the proceedings of these members o! our confederacy which have been forwarded to me, are transmitted herewith, ami recommended to your de liberate nnd dispassionate consideration. '? They nrc entitled to it #s well on the ground of the comity always to |>e exercised between the several States of the Union, as ot< account of the magnitude of the interests affected, and the dangerous tendency of the principle* asserted. The necessity of the protecting system undoubtedly formed a powerful motive for the organisation of the General Government. The consequent nnd nece?s?T) surrender of the pre-existing con trol of the State* over navigation and com merce with the right to levy imposts, plain ly transferred the power in question to Con gress. The authority to lay and collect du ties and imposts being unlimited by the con stitution, it is and may be used equally for financial, protection and retaliatory purpo se*. By its one only, can the burdensome or prohibitory duties Of other nation* designed to protect their own, and to depreaa our navigation, manufactures and agrfculture, be cMiMMraetcd. " Tne discussion* atMl explanation* that led to the ratification of the Cot. titutlon, far from countenancing tne ground taken by those states, proceeded upon the admission tiled.

MoxTlf.KI.to, January JHIrt. " Yru trll me 1 win r|tintt il by th'<*r who wUh torontinueour dependence on Knglnnd | for manufactures Tlwic was a time when < I m^ht have been so quoted with more! candour. Hut, within t)ic thiity vcaro which j have since elapsed, hnw ore circumstances! changed? Wc were then nt peacei our in- j dependent place among DHthii whi nr. knowledged. A rnmmrice *vlii?h (.flctcd the raw material* in exchange for the wmr material utter receiving t'tu last touch of, industry, was worthy the; Attention of all na- J tions. It wns exported that those espc cially to whom manufacturing Industry was important would cherish the friendship ol such customers by every favour, ami pur ticulurty cultivate their pence l?y every act of justice ami friendship. Under this pros pert, the "question wrmw! legitimate, whether, wha such an immensity of unim proved land, courting the hand of husband ry, the industry of agriculture or that of manufacture* would add mo* to the nation d wealth? And the doubt on the utility of American manufactures vrnt entertained on tliUconaKUrmtion chiefly, that, to the lu* bor of the husbandman ? vast addition it made by the spontaneous energies of the earth on which H is employed. For one grain of wheat committed to the earth, aha rendera twenty, thirty, and even *fty fold, whereaa the labor of thu manofar.turer falls in moat instances vastly below this pro fit. Pounds of flax, in tils hands, -yield but penny weights of lace. This exchange, too, laborious aait might seem, what * field did it promise for the occupation of the ocean; what u nursery for that clasa of citavna who were to exercise ami maintain our etyial rights on that element! 'litis was the state of things in 1785, when the "Noteson Vir ginia" were first published j when the ocean being open to all nations, and the common rights on it acknowledged and exercised, un der regulations .auctioned by the absent imd usages of (ill, it win* thought that the doubt might claim vnne consideration. But who in 1T85, could foresee the rapid tiepravity which win to tx tider the close of that century n disgrace to the history of clvi'.ixcd society? Who could havr imagined that the two most diatinguisheil in the rank ol natinus; lor ali enee and civilisation, would have suddenly descended Irum that honorable eminence, nnd si tting at defiance nil those law* estab lished bv the Author of Nature, between nation and nation, as between may and man, would ever earth and sea with robberies and piracies, merely I; "Cause strong enough to do it with temporal impunity; and that, under this dithaiidineut of nations from so ?ial order, we sin u!?V have been despoiled of a thousand ships.

Tho French i dvclart ?i th vm to be law I ul prizes if they lind ! tout lied at the port or been visited by a ship ? ??I the enemy's nation, rims writ we com i pletely excluded fiom the ocean. Com pare this Mile of things with that of 1785, and say whether an opinion founded on the c.ircumstant es of that day, can be fairly up. plied to those o| ilie present. " ^ e have experienced what wc did not then believe, that there exists Imtli proflign (? y and power enough to exclude us from the , field of interchange with ntlier nations; that tube independent for the comloris of life, ? we must fabricate them oursvl\e*. We 'mast now plate the manufacturer by the | si?!r: of the agriculturalist. The former | question is suppressed, oi, rather, assumes | a new form. The grand inanity now is, ;s!n!l we make our uwn comf?rt?, or go ; without them, at thewillol a foreign nation? I l ie, therel >: e, who it now a);uin^t domes 1tie. manufactures, must Ik; for reducing us cjihrr to a dependence on that nation, <u* to ; i>c cl ithed in skins, and to live like wild | beast*, in tlensaud ea\ erns. am proud to j say I am u?.t one of these. Experience ha* now. taught mc that manufactures are now necessity to our comforts; mwl if those ? w'uo quote me as of a dillV-reut opinion, will ? keep pace with me in purchasing nothing for I cign whcie an equivalent of domestic fabric ; can lie obtained without difference of price, I it will not he our fuult if we do not have a I supply at home equal to our demand, nnd 1 wrest that weajton of distress from the hand which has so long wantonly wielded it. If it shall be proposed to go beyond our supply, the-question of 1785 will then recur, vix. Will our surplus lalxir lie then more benefi cially employed in the culture of the earth or in the fabrications 'jfart? We have vet time for coiuideiation before that question will press on us; and the maxim to be appli ed will depend upon the circumstances which shall then exist. For so complicated a scif-ncc as politic al economy, no one axiom can be Ind do.vn a. wise and expedient for all times and circumstances. Inattention to this is what has called for this explanation, to answer the cavils of the uucandid, who u?e my former opinion only as n stalking horse, to keep us in eternal vus?idagc to u foreign hltd unfriendly nation, '?

It appear* certain that negociations are going tube resumed at Comtantinople, on the question relative to the Tr? aty of the 6th July, but only with Count Guilleminot and Mr. Stratford Can ning, who will stipulate in the name of Rus sia, as well ax of Prance and F.nglnnd.
