? " ADDRESS
To the Cult>ator?, the Capitalitts, and Manufac
turers of the United fitatev
THE times require your enlightened co
operation in the improvement and exten
sion of the nu- ionai industry. An unprece
dented course of foreign misconduct, de
mand' equally of our ovn interests an*# of
your virtuea, a deportment corresponding
with the now situation into which we are
dMJKgjT Tfrfr subject of war, as a possible*
rewtcdy for the disorder of thf! j*??, i?
studiously left to other pens, and is re
spectfully Submitted to the proper authori
ties ot our neutral country. Hut it 'is a
consideration of the utmost importance, in
favor of the public views, which it is pro
posed to suggest in these papers, that they
may tend to manifest our fast resources
' ntcewary Copuil with any
foe ; am) to iixlicate the means of their
sure an# Economical improvement and in
crease* M
ler the strongest impressions from
painful* injurioUf^andawfal times,
it is proposed to take the necessary view
of certain divisions of our internal incfus
-? jjfcg- in which the interests of the cultiva
tors, the manufacturers, andthe capitalists,
well undersioddy'appear to unite. We
si lall commence with the great and novel
article* the importance of Which has been,
so miraculously increased in the United
States, by measure* like tliese, and which

COTTON.?:; .
. ? Wfcf woollen manufactures of Europe
constitute. one of tbc greatest rivals of the
cotton gyration uf the Urilted States,
ftmcTof the increasing manufacture, at
frame and dbrorid?\>f that -illimitable raw
material* , It is an instructive fact, that
the woollen manufactures of Great- Britain
Jut v e been steadily computed at little mow
than1 sixteen millions sterling per annum,
for the whole period between the peace of
1783, -and the begi nninffi of the pre sent
^*avin the year 1803.? The weight of the
wooi annually consumed there, varies lit
"HSlroiw the weight of our whole turfilu*.
cotton, as exported in the greatest yefcr.
If 6Ur cotum&hall be impeded by the bel
ligerents Hi ks way to foreign markets,
we must and shall manufacture many cot

An effect of their cotton manuffiftture has

the manufacture not only oL^l ot them^
which we can obtain from the landed in
terest, but all we can procure by means of
importation. We have nothing* to do in
regard to those last five raw materials, but
to increase their quantity, and to amelio
rate their manufacture. It is the presence
of cotton Onjyi as a redundant raw mate

__Mttnyjyaiportaill articles of public: sup-/
ply, for which the country paid Excessive
prices, in the revolutionary war, can be
made of the cotlon, which Eurqpc; inter
rupts in its way to foreign marketgC We
were not aware, that we possessed" the"
sources ot this profuse raw material ,
neither had wethe<gin to free it from the
seed ; nor the carding and spinning ma
chinery, with which to manufacture it.
We were not aware, that it would malte
blankets, of which (of foreign wool) there
are twenty-fire millions of pounds weight
in daily use within our country, lt? utility
in girth webbing for military saddles, for
belts of various kinds* for pantaloons, vest,
jacket, trowser, frock, shirt, sheet, tent,
knapsack, wagon, and sail cloths, Twilled
and untwiUcdr would ensure and cheapen
that great mass of army and navy supplies,
which have been made' of ravens duck,
drilling, sheeting, ti'cklenbcrgs, clow lass,
girth webbing, and even - sometimes of
leather, as in the case of belts. If the tnili- 1
wrjf blanket, by land ami sea, ought to be
of wool, except in hospitals and garrisons,
still the manufacture of cotton blankets fa- !
militates and insures the command of wool-~
ten blankets in time of war* , FoMtfcere
could be no difficulty, in a war of vfttuous
and sound principle, to obtnm frnm HuT
private owners of three millions and one
half of woollen J^kokets, now and -always .

50,., J 5 and 60 per' cent* , on ?he> sterling

corduroys, cotton drilling girth Mr ebbing,
and other goods of constant and general
consumption. U i? evident and certain
then, U* at our $904 house-wives, and cot

I fere net of more than SO ptfl^nt. in their
I favor. U is a similar difference, which
I ha . created/and protected the coach-tnakfer,
I the cabinet-maker, the gold and silver

faciurers of ail our hides, skChs, flax,
hemp, wool, and metals*
The various foreign invasions of twr
personal rights, and of opr merchant ves
*efs andships of war, against alt de cor u?i ,
reason and justice, are powerful consider
ations in favor of aver y proper attention to
tln| internal walks ol our natioftarindustry.
Our honest exertions, capiiuf and skin,
