"In CMC the Ottoman Porte does not ic< eept within the space of one month* the mediation which wall be proposed, the high contracting parties agree upon the following measure*!? " J. It shall be declared by their repre sentative* at Constantinople to the Porte, that the inconveniences ana evils pointed out .n the public treaty as inseparable from the state of things subsisting in the east for the last six years, and the termination of which, through the means of the dlsponl of the sub lime Porte, appears still remote, impose upon the high contracting parties the neces sity of taking immediate measures for an ap proximation with the Greeks. " It it to l>e undei stood that this approxi mation shall be brought about bv establish ing commcrcial relations with the Greeks by rendering to them for that purpose, anil receiving from vhem, consular agents, so long .t? there shull exist among them autho rities capable of maintuining buch relations. 2. if within the said tcnu of one month, the Porte do not accept the armistice pro* posed in the firat article of the public treaty, or if the Greeks refuse to execute it, the high contracting powers shall declare to that one of the two contending parties which shall wish to continue hostilities, or to both, if such become necessary, that the said high con tracting powers intend t~> exert alt the means which circumstances may suggcbt to their prudence to obtain the immediate effect ot the armistice, the execution of which they desire by preventing, in as fur as mar he in | their power, all collision between the con- j tending pnrties, and in fact, immediately of-! ter the aforesaid declaration, the high coif tnii'ting powers will conjointly employ all their means in the accomplishment of the object thereof, whithout, however, taking any part in the hostilities between the two contending parties. " In consequence, the high contracting powers will immediately after the signature of the present additional and secret article, transmit eventual instruction* conformable to the provisionsabrive set forth, tothe admirals commanding their tqadront in the teas of the Levant. " 3. Finally, if contrary to all expectation, these measures do not yet suffice to induce the adoption by the Ottoman Porte of the propositions made by the high contracting poweiv or if, on the other hand, the Greeks renounce the conditions stipulated in their favor ia the treaty of this day, the high con trading powers will, nevertheless, continue to prosecute the work of pacification on the basis agreed upon between them, and in con sequence, they authorise from this time for ward their representatives in London, to dis cuss and determine the ulterior measures to which it may become necessary to n sort. "The present additional and secret article shall have the same force and value as If U bad been inserted word for word, in the trea ty of this day. It shall be ratified, and the ratifications thereof shall be exchanged at the same timo as those of the said treaty.

HarrMurg Convention.?The congrega tion of choice spirits hat broken up, and left the world, which looked for light from its labora, still living in darkness. The debates as reported, afford a fine exemplification of the doctrines of the NUet and Carey school of political economy. The leading idea ot the members seems to have been, that each ?? Interest0 it to be ** prntectetod" by a UK on all the consumers of its productions, that K on the whole people. For Instance, if woollens can be raflushed by the English, so that s poor man ettn get his coat one dol lar cheaper than the manufactuen at home could furnish it, then a duty somewhat over one dollar mutt be imposed on the imported article to at to fbrce this poor man to buy the domestic article. TOs Is a pell tax of one dollar en every pom man thatweafta much clear rshi*toth*!!!! *^l>r It m> tsra, KvS&sxijtt woollens ma man worth a hundred) If he did* the tax would b? equitably proportioned. Beside?, the bill proiMMed by the Harrisburg ike actually bears harder upon coarse _ ban upon those of a liner quality* so that th? poor man Is charged a larger tax onhis'c&it* which he must hare than the Hob man upon his. Fortunately, the maxima that K * the interest of eveiy individual to buy wttprc ho ran get cheai>c*t, and that the mutat or *11 the individuals that com pose It is tha interest of the nation, are too plainly self-evident to bo shaken oven by an We are obliged to this Convention for the first full development of the theory of pro tection. It seems it .is to include all the interest* " Heap the hill higher than Olympus" shouts Mathew Carey* " the more.Interest* we Include* the more certain we shall be ot succecding." This la. the pcootamation of the Apostle of the American System* so called, though It la older than the discovery of Yuaerica, because It la exploded fit every part of the four quarters of the 'globe except in America. "Now, earry the sys tem to its utmost extent* and what does ft amount to. Strange as theconeeoueuce may seem, the whole ot the community become state paupers. Every interest is to be sup ported by a tax on the jmbllq/ end every interest Includes the public A man may embark lit any weeulatioo* no matter hew unpromising, and he " has created en inter est," he hha a claim to protection. We im port most of our sugars} now sugar may be made of beeu and cornstalks) It way be made of rags and sulphuric acid} and these we have at home. Supposing some chemist esta blishes e factory up?n this glorious theory! his sugar costs a dollar a pound: but wbal thenMhe dollar stays in the country* foreign sugars take the dollar out of it; we shall be drained of our specie, *'we shall never be independent," cries Mr. Stewart* M while ?the West Indies sweeten our tea! We have fought for liberty; we must now fight for sweetening;" the maker of rag sugnr-ptumbs must be protc< ted in his l<-'.tdal>lc enterprise according to the American system, which the Americana copy from the enlightened wid liberal Spanish.' Is the argument any better for woollens than It it for sujjnr? Jt is the same. If the labor whleh produces 75 yarda of cloth of a given quality, applied in a different manner would produce wherewith to purchase 100 yards of English cloth of the same quality, then are 35 yards of that cloth lost to the U. States by the munufature of it at home. If the theory stated in iull is absurd, let aay man tell me wh.?t is moderate protection? It i* an absurdity in terms? you might as well talk of comraiting murder moderately. If the theory it true, it is true; if it is false, it is not true moderately, no line can be drawn. What ? singular ?pectaclt does this con vention exhibit; the west demanding to be protected in the production of whiskey rather than grain, in the teeth and eyes of oar cold water societies, Kentucky demand* Ing a duty on hequp, as if commerce was not burthencd enough already. Pennsylva nia calling for an additional duty on iron at the very moment when a judicious government would remove all duties upon Iron, that we might be enabled to construct railways and improve and cheapen oar machinery, the only means by which we csa hope to com pete ia manufactures with the nations of Eu rope, while Ichabod Hartlet, who seems to have understood what he Wm about better than most of them, poses the whole assem bly by inquiring what can he done for the encouragement of the manufacture of ships. Mr. Stewart of New-York, ravee like a madman; he says " Adam Smith's work had poisoned the mind of the nation, and we ought to eradicate the notions imbibed from his work." ? It would be quite as wise to say, Pike's Arithmetic has poisoned the mind of the nation, and we ought to eradicate the multiplication table. Has Mr. Stewart ever read the Wealth of Nations? If he haa, he must know that that work consists of unan swerable reasonings, based upon unquestion able facts. The principles established In that masterly work ane admitted by every political economist of any note In ? verv country in Europe. Never was that*iutnph of any philosophical system more rapid, steady and complete, and more likely to be lasting, than that of the new system of poli tical economy in Europe. Mr. Stewart says, "we ftnd It frequently even in our retail shops." (if this Is tru* I rejoice at It) ? hf eonvequenoe of the prejudices drunk in with this commerrktl milk, upon which however maay had grown rich.'' Mr. Stewart had better go back to this milk a little while. He has evidently taken to meat before ha was able to bear It; he haa unluckily swal lowed some doctrinal bones which he will ultima* t}ly ftnd H dUfccult to digest. Many have gmwn rich I Alt that ever grew rk.., by trade, grew so on the fundamental pritvel ple of Smith's system j that ft Is better to buy cheap sad sell dear. ** He thought that every man might see that we had enemies enough without maltl|dylng the objects of strife." Right! All consumers of woollen goods, more numerous than the manufactu rers, ars your natural enemies. His poller would be to shut down the hatches upon all but two objects, vis; woo) and woollens and Iron. True I His policy would shut dawn the hatches upon agriculture and commerce, | and no farmer, merchant or I at tourer must utter a word of complaint, upon pain of bring denounced as an enemy to the American ^ ##T Up tt lull finlf ifrsr InlllMl 4fj?\gin. iwir. f?.
