It was indeed a somewhat extraordinary ‘ progress.” It began in farce—ended in tragedy—and the chief actors now find themselves in a most uncomfortable pickle. With the solitary exception of his reception in this city, the President found nothing satisfactery or consolatory. He complains, in indignant terms— ““not loud but deep”—that in the other places visit- ed by him, and particularly in Boston, he was so hemmed in—so strictly guarded—so diligently kept within certain limits, that he had no chance of meeting with the people. A few selfish hangers-on and officials in expectancy, perpetually thrust them- selves, he says, between him and the “ old” and “* young democracie”—the great massasof the peo- ple. That Daniel Webster should have so monope lized the public applause and favor, was also matter of indignant complaint. The fact is, never will wea- ried man repose his head on his pillow with more sincerity of joy, than will “ honest John Tyler,” when he reaches the White House, after having ter- minated this uncomfortable, unsatisfactory, trouble Arvival and Howanee or Metal Thureday, eo etine, 188. Ma. Bennerr— My dear Sir:—The President and suite, with the tail, arrived at their old quarters in thishotel, about 6 o’clock this morning in the Norwich boat. His arrival at the dock was a very quiet affair. If any one knew of it, no one was there to receive him save Mr. U.S. Commissioner li apelje, who went downto the dock at about five o’clock in the mor- ning with five carriages, and waited alone for him there until the arrival of the boat at six. Mr. Ra- pelje escorted him upto Howards’, and from How- ards’ to the cars for Philadelphia. Although much has occurred since they left this city to cast an air of gloom over their spirits, yet it was manifestly quite refreshing to them to get back where they had not only enjoyed such superior ac- commodations and attention, but where also they could breathe a little pure democratic air in the same apartments, which a few days since were sweetened with the breath of the ‘‘ young demo- | cracie.” The President remarked to Mrs. Howard that he had not breathed so freely at any place since his attack with the influenza. The following is a list of the whole presidential party :— Joun Trier, President U. States, andtwo servants, Doctor Thomas. Z.C. Lee, Maryland. Hon. J.'C. Spencer, Secre: Howard Kennedy, do. tary of the Treasury, and General Henderson, Wash- servant. ington. Judge Porter, aad two Robt. Tyler and lady, do. daughters, John Tyler, Junr., do. A.P. Upshur, Secretary of Mr. Jenkins. the Navy. Mr. Howe, Philadelphia. C. A, Wickliffe, Postmaster Col. A. Allen, Kentucky. General, lady, and two W.W Russell, U. 8. Ma: | begetting journey. Mr. Webster’s abrupt departure from Boston, and the fact that he and his friends Blatchford, Draper and others, amused themselves at Marshfield, in- stead of attending the funeral of Mr. Legare, excited agood deal of warm feeling at head-quarters. It was regarded as conduct, to say the least of it, dis- respectful and unkind. However, in these days of confusion, uncertainty, and change, we presume that there is no necessity for sticking very closely to the old-fashioned rules for the regulation of social life. There are various conjecturas afloat relative to the supplying of the vacancy occasioned by the death of Mr. Legare. It is said that Mr. Up- shur will be the Secretary of State, which would still leave three important offices vacant—the Se- cretaryship of the Navy—the office of Attorney General—and the post of Minister at the French Covtt. Allsorts of rumors are of course in circu- lation respecting the candidates for these offices, and the course to be pursued by the administration. Every loafer about the Pewter Mug and National Hall, affect, of course, the most intimate acquain- tance with the state of matters at Washington, and predict with all possible seriousness the events which the morrow is to bring forth. And, indeed, these prophets and philosophers know probably as muchas those at Washington. A cabinet in a fog daughters. rines. Mr. Winder R. A. Luther, U. 8. Army. Captain Ramsay. Colonel Graham. As to the President’shealth, he appeared to have suffered much, and still shows symptoms of a high fever. Although, having only a day's notice of their arrival, Mr. Howard had provided a most sumptuous breakfast, at which were to be seen and eaten some unmentionable unseasonables, yet the President ‘ate but little. He said he needed rest more 'than food. Some ofthe party are anxious to have him hasten on as far as Baltimore to-night, but Dr. Chomas, his physician, is decidedly opposed to it, in the pre- sent precarious state of the President’s health. Mr. Wickliffe is also suffering severely from the influenza. The whole party are deeply afflicted by Mr. Le- gare’s sudden and untimely death. Many of them are also suffering with the influenza. And itmay not be improper to add, that some of the party are not alittle disconcerted, and others not a little of- fended at the course taken by Mr. Webster. [t was stated that the late Secretary of State, and still later orator of the 17th, instead of joining the President’s suite, and dining and wining with him at the Tre- mont, returned to Marshfield, and went inconti- nently to making chowder. It was also stated that he not only did not attend Mr. Legare’s funeral, but that he did not even return to take leave of his Ex- cellency the President on his departure for Wash- ington. It appears, too, that Mesars. Curtis, Draper, Blatch- ford and others of Mr. Webster’s friends, also left Boston for Marshfield, after Mr. Legare’s death, to spend a few days in learning the art and mystery of chowder making. It wasexpected that all that chow- der party would have been present at M. Legare’s funeral, but to the surprise of all, none of them were there. As to the presiding genius of the New York Cus- tom House, some of the party significantly inti- mated— “Dark brood the heav’ns o’er thee.” It would further appear that President Tyler has made one grand discovery here at the north—who are hisfriends. I need not say they are in his opin- ion the “Young Democracie.” They gave him a welcome embrace—he felt their strong arms close about him—their, big heart beat responsive to his own—their sentiments were his—their attachment asardent as that of Ruth unto Naomi. So, then, if President Tyler takes in new bed-fel- lows must he not kick out old ones? Although Mr. Tyler might consent to lie with Daniel Webster on the one side, and Alderman Purdy upon the other, yet itis doubtful if either of these latter gentlemen is the most unfortunate of organized bodies. Some- thing must evidently soon be done. Itis only by a determined, decisive course that the present diffi- cultiescan be made to disappear. What does Mr. Spencer mean todo? That his star has gained the ascendancy during the late tour, is believedin many quarters. Can it guide the distracted Cabinet to any sort ofa comfortable haven? We shall see. Our Revort or Wessrer’s OnatIon.—The crea- tures connected with the press who were utterly unable to report this great discourse, continue to exhibit their chagrin by attempts to depreciate our admirable report. The Boston Daily Advertiser accuses our reporters of mangling one of Mr. Web- ster’s Latin quotations. The quotation as given in the “ official” report, is as follows :— “ Pulchrum est benefacere reipublicac, etiam bene dicere haud.” Now, it happens that a paper was handed to our reporters, from Mr. Webster himself, containing the “quotations which might be used,” and it is now before us. In it we find this quotation thus written in Mr. Webster's own handwriting :— “ Pulchrwm est, benefacere, benedicere haud absur- dum est.” By a mistake of the printer, absurdwm was made ab secundum—which, as our reporters did not see the report till it appeared in the paper, remained uncorrected. Every blockhead, however, who had ever declined hic, haec, hoc, except that one who penned the paragraph in the Advertiser, must have been able to attribute the error to the proper quarter —the compositor,"who*did not happen to be so ex- cellent a classical scholar as the accomplished writer in the Advertiser. The quotation, then, was given according to Mr. Webster’s own version, and he and the admirable critic of the Advertiser may settle the matter as they please. The simple fact is, however, that we have so fre- quently chastised the incompetency and stupidity of a numberof those who affect great ability in the management of the newspaper press, that the crea- tures are becoming exasperated. Well, we are glad to see them make any exertion. Even their wrig- glings are better than absolute torpidity. But we must continue our flagellations, and as heretofore beat them hollow in all and every case requiring en- terprise and skull. ‘Tue Mayor.—The Mayor bas been very seriously afflicted with the prevailing epidemic. He has re- covered in some slight degree, but not sufficiently to resume his duties in the office. He has accord- ingly left town on a@ short rustication among his friends down at Islip on Long Island. He will re- turn en Monday next. In the mean time the duties of Mayor willbe discharged by Alderman Purdy, and ia his absence, as he was yesterday,to Yonkers, by Mr. Munson Clark, his able and efficient First Marshal. Intsh Repeat IN France.—The question of Irish Repeal has already began to be agitated in France, and the Nattonal has come out very decidedly in favor of the movement. From all appearances, this agitation promises soon to involve the whole of Western Europe. In the present distracted and re- volutionary age, the agitation of the subject of Ire laud’s independence may reasonably be expected to lead to very important results. It is difficult to as- sign limits to its influence. The whole tendency of the age is towards republicanism, and now that the influence and example of this country are daily be- coming more widely and powerfully felt in Europe, every movement in favor of the increased liberty of the people, and the overthrow of institutions whose operation has a different tendency, obtains an im- mensely adaed force and importance. We will goon Lear more of this agitation in France. would consent to ge to sleep while the other two should hold a little private conversation. That there are two coldshoulders between Webster and Tyler is pretty certain. And it is equally certain that Col. Graham’s position is not to be disturbed. It is now discovered that it was set down in the unpublished programme that Mr. Webster was to be cheered, but not the President. Itis related that a New York Tyler man, at the time of the proces- sion in Boston, was sitting near some ladies, and mooted the question about giving cheers for the President as he should pass along. {t was discussed from one toanother, until it came to the ears of one of the marshals of the day, who replied, ‘‘ Oh no, on no account—it is particularly set down in the unpublished programme, that we are not to cheer the President, but that we are to cheer Mr. Web- ster. Among other matters of complaint in his eastern visit, the President says, that on leaving New York, he was taken in hand by the whigs and toted down to Boston in such a way that he couldn’t eee the people at all. And at the Tremont it was still the same—plenty of whigs and silver pitchers, but no people te be seen. There is much speculation in respect to the indi- viduals who are to be appointed to fill the vacancies in the cabinet. Various names are mentioned, and among them that of David Henshaw, of Boston. The President and all his party left Howards’ at nine o’clock this morning for Philadelphia. More anon. Yours, &c., Joux Jones or New York. Tae Mepicat Bureav.—The resignation of Dr. Burton, the chief of the recently organized medical bureau, will not be greatly lamented by those most interested in the affairs of that department. It is to be hoped that some judgment will be exercised in the selection of his successor. The satisfactory and efficient discharge of the not unimportant duties of the office can be effected only by a man familiarly acquainted with all the details, and who will be able to combine discretion with his zeal. Fatse.—The statements which appeared in the Courier and Enquirer, and now going the rounds of some of the papers, relative to the removal of the Collector of the port of Boston, the resignation of Postmaster Gordon, and the appointment of Mr. Greene as his successor. No such changes have taken place. McCuntocn’s Universat, GazeTreer.—Another great work is offered to the public, on the cheap sys- tem, by the Brothers Harper—a work not only great and valuable, but indispensable. Itis the Uni- versal Gazetteer, or Geographical Dictionary of the whole world, recently prepared with immense labor and research, by McCulloch, the author of the ce- lebrated Commercial Dictionary. The American edition has copious adgitions and improvements, by Professor Haskel, who is amply qualified to revise and correct that portion of the Universal Gazetteer which relates to the United States. There are to be seven large maps, and the price of the whole work is to be only four dollars and a half—eighteen large numbers, at a quarter of a dollar each. For sale at this office. Fort Hamutox.—Hamilton House, at Fort Ha- milton, on the superb Narrows, is now open, and ready to accommodate 150 visitors. This is one of the inost splendid houses in the neighborhood of New York. A large number of families have now taken rooms, and an early application is necessary to secure accommodations for the summer. The ball room is one of the most superb we ever saw, and the land and water excursions are a species of earthly witchery itself. ‘Tue Resient Prrvsician at StaTEn IsLanp, has, we have been informed, given great offence, by conduct, which, if really committed, is certainly most reprehensible. He claims, it seems, under some obsolete requisition, the right of compelling all passengers from foreign ports, to deliver to him their soiled linen and clothes, in order that they may be washed before the owners land in the city. He has himself established a very extensive wash- house, and charges at the moderate rate of one dol- jar per dozen. The packet ship t.oscius arrived at quarantine on Monday evening last, with a number of cabin pas- sengers, some of whom reside in Cincinnati, and | others in various portions of the interior, and, on landing, were of course very anxious to proceed to their respective homes. But the doctor, on boarding the ship, made them all hand over to him their dirty clothes to be washed, and by keeping them, has put the passengers to the hardship of re- maining nearly a week in the city, at much ex- pense and serious inconvenience. One young lady who was returning from a visit to her friends in Europe, and was very anxious to reach her friends in Cincinnati, has thus been detained under circum- stances of peculiar hardships. Ifthe Roscius had come from Havana, or New Orleans, and the yellow fever had been prevalent there at her departure, this doctor would have had some show of excuse for his proceeding. But coming, as she ship did, directly from Liverpool, which, at the time of her sailing, was much more healthy than New York, this proceeding seems utterly unjustifiable. Ifthe factsin this case be really as they have been stated to us, we have no hesitatian in saying that the proper means of putting an immediate stop to such conduct should be at once resorted to. Cuear Lirerature.—The only species of cheap literature for which the newsboys appear at present to find a market, consists of translations of the licentious novels of Paul de Kock and others of that school. The publisher of these filthy works is in fact, the Napoleon of cheap literature, who is driving the Harpers and Winchester quite off the field. We are thus presented with a counter-revo- lution, similar to that which overwhelmed the monthly governments of France during the Revo- lution, and in which a bad system uniformly took the place of one a little better. First there was one tolerably fair—then 1t made way for a worse one— it, in its time, being succeeded by a still more in- ferior one, until at the last all were swallowed up in the government, save the mark! of the canaille. Thus with this cheap literature amongst us. First we had the republication of some good standard works—then came novels and romances—then the productions of such novelists as.Bulwer—now we have Paul de Kock—and the next brood will be that of books which we cannot name. The news boys find it, we doubt net, a prefitable traffic. Nice, moral, well-conducted, pure-minded men and women, who would not dare to go into a store to purchase a bawdy book, can obtain it very conveniently at the corner of a street, or the en- trance to an unfrequented alley. Alas! the devi! and the flesh seem more omnipotent than ever. AnoTueR Cuass From West Point.—Another class (the third we believe), arrived in town last evening from West Point, where the examination has just closed. Most of them stop at Cozzens’ American, and a more wild, harum-scarum set of fellows, one seldom sees, unless it be in a class just broke loose from college. It reminds us of the old holiday school song— Omne bene Sine poena Tempus est ludendi; Venit hora Absque mora Libros deponendi. Dogs wirnorr Mvuzzies.—It will be seen, by a notice in another column, that the dogs have had theirday, as alldogs must. The mundate is gone forth—to be muzzled, or to be killed, that isthe ques- tion. Three days’ grace, however, are given, and on Monday next accounts must be settled. Nisro’s—Mapamosetik Catve’s Benerit.—To- night this most talented lady takes ‘a benefit, the new opera of L’Eclair will be performed for the first time. Madamoiselle Ca'vé will doubtless have one of the most elegant and crowded audiences that ever graced a theatre. -The universal high estima- tion in which her talents are held by the New York musical community, will secure hera well deserved evidence of her success in gratifying the frequen, ters of the French,Opera. Bowgry Ampnitugatre.—We cannot refrain from calling the attention of the public to this beau- tiful place of amusement. The efforts of Mr. Mann in bringing together such a fine equestrian troupe is certainly admirable, and cannot but meet its due reward. The house too, is so thoroughly ventila- ted as to be almost as cool as the gardens, and pre- seats every degree of comfort thatjthe heart can wish. It is now the most fashionable resort in the city. Literary Notices Wiutuarp’s Unirep Srates.—This is an abridged History of the United States, by Mrs. Emma Wil- lard, whose name is familiar to all our readers. We have heard this work very highly commended, and doubt not, from the very cursory enamination we have been able to give it, deservedly so. No spe- cies of knowledge is so important to American youth as an intimate and thorough acquaintance with the history of their own country. We cheer- fully recommend this work to general circulation.

IMPOAtanT ARREST UNDEA THE LATE TREATY BETWEEN Enxauamp ann rai Countay.—We give below the de- tails of an arrest made in the limits of this State, in eon- formity with the article in the late treaty effected between this country and England, which stipulates for the de. livery of persons charged with certain crimes and mis™ demeanors, who may have fled the jurisdiction of either country to that of the other. On the 18th of January Jast,a farmer, named John Gilmour, died, in the town of Inchannon, in the parish of Inchannon, and was buried in the church-yard of Dunlap, Ayrshire, in Scotland, but from some cause, the friends cf the deceased entertained suspicionsthat all was notright, and had the body ex- humed on the 22d April, when, upon examination of the stomach, it was ascertained that the cause of death was arsenic, supposed tohave been administered at different times, and the wife was suspected as being particeps criminis. This belief was strengthened by the fact that she fled upon being summoned to attend befere the autho. rities holding the inquest. A warrant was issued by the Sheriff Substitute of Renfrewshire, on petition of the Procurator Fiscal, to George McGarf, of the rural police, of Paisley, Renfrewshire, for the arrest of Christina Cochran, otherwise called Gilmour, wife of the deceased, Alter diligent search, it was ascertained that she had fled the country, in the brig Excel, for New York. Upon this, the officer, after procuring the necessary documents from the Secretary of State, left in the steam ship Acadia, which arrived at Boston, on the — ult., and came on to this city, when, after laying the matter before the United States’ Court, Judge Betts issued the necessary warrant, and on Wednesday evening Mr. McGay went down to Staten Island, to board the brig which had just arrived at the Quarantine, and there arreated the woman, and lodged her in prison here. She will be brought before the United States’ Marshall, on Saturday next, for final examination. Lance Tuert or Five Franc Pieces.—A German emi- grant named Frederick Eresman, was arrested on Wed- nesday evening by officers McGrath and Cocketair, ona charge of stealing 485 five franc pieces from his cousin, Catherine Keyler. The accused came passenger in com- y with the complainant in the ship Burgundy, recent- ly arrived from Havre, and the money was missed on the arrival ofthe vessel at this port, and the accused among themissing. On being arrested, 313 of the pieces were recovered, and after being sent before the United States Marshal, under a supposition that the the{t was committed on the,high seas, he was returned to the police as having been committed after the arrival of the vessel. The mo- ney was restored to the complainant, andthe accused Todged in prison. Axnest or Pickrocxers.—On Wednesday evening offi- cers Stephens and McGrath returned from Baltimore, ha- ying in custody two notorious pickpockets, who ha been inmates of the State Prison for their industrious pil- ferings. Their names are John Carpenter, alias Sommer: indyke, alias Bergen Jack, and Thomas Lowerrie. About three weeks since, bony ery from thit city after robbing a Pennsylvania drover, Daniel Infield,of his pocket book, containing about $205, on the Five Points, whither he had gone to visit the avighborhood known as ‘' Dickens’ Place.” They went to Baltimore, and about two weeks since the active police officers Hays, Zell, and Ridgley, of that city arrested them, and had them confined in jail until the New York officers could claim them under requisition otthe Governor ofthe State. _ They did so, and the nim- ble chevaliersare now in the Tombs awaiting trial. Minor Orreners.—John Heury Logee and Wales D. Casterton, were committed for stealing a pair of boots, the property of Samuel H. R. Lee, Jr., a passenger on board the steamboat North America. Michael Bryan stole one pair of boots worth $,3,60 from the store of Henry Romer, No.534 Grand street ; anda colored lad named Stephen Jones, was locked up for carrying off an axe from the premises of Mrs. Henderson, No. 136 Greenwich st.—all special sessions culprits. Deatx sy Daownic.—Yesterday a man was found floating in the East River, near James’ slip; he was appa- rently a sailor ; on his left arm the letters H. S. 1, were marked in India Ink. He appeared to be about 30 years of age. sandy complexion, and sandy hair, was dressed in a blue roundabout, bluo pants. red flannel un. der shirt, and slippers. He had not been in the water over . few pens erdict—the unknown man was found rowned. Superior Court. Before Judge Oakley.

B. & S, SMALL BUSINESS.—Mr. Dexter of Albany has fallen into the habit of copying Dr. Sherman’s notices of his Lozenges, and after substituting some other name uses them to sell some unknown article that he calls medicated Lozeng s. Some persons in his employ even go 60 far as to say they are the same as Sherman's, that the person who makes them was formerly foreman for Dr. Sherman. We call that small business. If their article is worth any thing we should suppose they could build it upon its ewn merits ss Sherman Yas his. ‘The Dr. must hevea load to carry all those who want to live under his reputation: ‘There is no man in America that was ever his foreman, and none know how to make his Lozenges but himself— when will people learn that there is nothing guined by imitating such well known articles?

And also coun- terfeits of this article, and advertised by persons void of feeling and principle. We do not sell this article to W. W. Thayer or J. O. Fay, nor authorise them to ad vertise it.

PHYSICIANS ARE BEGINNING TO “SPEAK Publicly” in favor of that best of inventions, the Magical Pain Extractor Salve, from 21 Courtlandt street, which has such just celebrity in burns, sore eyes, swelling, &c. &c. Let facts appear before hearsay—as the following, from one of the most respectable physicians west proves : “This will certify that I have made use of the Magical Pain Extractor in case of a punctured wound on myself, which was attended with much swelling, pain, stiffness, and inflammation. I therefore deem it my duty to say, that inYthe course of 26 years’ practice I have found no- thing equal to it for the purpose of allaying pain and in- flammation. I have also used it with happy effect when too much inflammation followed blistered surfaces, and have no doubt if you persevere in convincing mankind of itsexcellent properties, (already known to many), that still more excellence will be developed, and the Magical Pain Extractor will ere long, prove a blessing to the hu: man family. ‘A.

For MONEY MARKET, Wednesday, June 22—6 P, ‘The stock market exhibited quite a panic to-da prices generally fell. ‘This is the natural reaction of the rapid rise, The abundance of money is real, not artificial. It is actual wealth in the hands of those who seek to em- ploy it—not as under a national bank, paper promis: which may explode. The abundance of this money caused it to be loaned to weak brokers, by the banks erally, at a margin of ten per cent. Prices fell a little, so as to uncover the margin, and many operators, being un- able to maket good, the stocks were sold, and accelerated the fall. This brings the stock into the hands of able holders, and lays the foundation of a more solid rise — “Bears,” taking advantage of this state of things, talk of stocks coming {rem Europe, in the face of all past expe- eto the contrary. In allthe panic of the last four years, no stock has come back. The fall will continue until this operation has spent itself, The accumulation of money is real. New York owes nothing, and the pros- pect is that @ further addition will be made to the present large stock of cash. Nothing official has, of eourse, trans- Pired in relation to the loan; but the treasury notes, cording to notice,are to be paid “in money” on the Ist prox The Secretary attempted a negotiation some time since with the Banks in this city, but failed, because he was too high and too firm in his demands, This confirms the belief that the loan has been taken, and by a foreign house The continued abundance of money inevitably will pro duce a further rise, not only of stocks, but of produce and goods. At the Board, Ohio 6’s fell 1}; Kentucky 1; Illi- nois 34; Canton Co.1; Mohawk 1}; Harlem 1$; Farmers Lean 2 per cent. At the new Board, United States stocks rose 1}. There is aprevailing notion that some descriptione of Wlinois Canal bonds are not receivable for subscriptions to the newloan. This isa mistake. Mr. Fiske, the Cashier of the American Exchange Bank, receives all descriptions: of Illinois Canal indebtedness, without distinction. There are no no Canal liabilities afloat in which the State makes any distinction. There are a few Canal bonds, which were originally misnumbered 1101 in black ink. General Whiteside when here corrected this, and made it 1111, repeating the number in red ink, in order to avoid dispute. These bonds are precisely the same as the others. At Boston there was asale of five Massachusetts bonds, 5 per cents, for £200 each, at 99} per cent. Much has of late been said on the subject of commer- cial treaties, to place the intercourse of nations upon a basis of reciprocity. The plan is neither new nor of dowbt(ul utility. Mr. Pitt, before the war with France, had projected a system of the most extensive free trode; and his views were ably backed by those of Mr. Jefferson, who, wh le Secretary of State under Washington, reported in 1793, as follows :— « Would even a single nation begin with the United States this system of free commerce, it would be advia able to begin it with that nation, it is one by one only that itcan beextended to ‘all, Where the cireum- stance of either party render it expedient to levy @ revenue, by Way of impost on commerce, its freedom might be modified in that particular, by mutual and equivalent measures, preserving it entire to all others. Some na- tions,not yet ripe for free commerce in all its extent, might be willing to mollify’ its restrictions and regulations tor us, in proportion tothe advantages which an intercourte with u¢ right offer. Particularly they may concur with US in reciprocating the duties to be levied on each side, oF in compensating any excess of duty by equivalent advanta es of another nature.” Well would it have been if this sound doctrine had been adhered to, ‘The convention of 1815, indeed placed the navigation of the two countries on an equal footing but the United States have been constantly increasing their restrictions, while England has been yearly dimi nishing hers. The present existence of the Britis) empite is owing entirely to her rapid advance toward free trade since the war; and the comparative decay « American commerce, is owing to the ascendancy of : narrow-minded and selfish clique in the national coun cils, which, under the catch words of “/ptetection to du mestic industry,” is taking bread from the mouth of the laborer, paralyzing the enterprise of the merchants, and Tendering fruitless the industry of the farmer. The Prosperity of this country was never so great as during that season of free trade enjoyed by itm the few years preceding the French revolution. At that time there 5 ex- isted an enlightened French ministry, under whose wise councils a decree was issued in 1787—“ for the encou- ragement of the commerce of France with the United States,” by which she extended free trade to this country in its fullest extent. In the year 1799, the second follow- ing that decree, as follows :— Rice, Ree Tye,” Barley, 920,262 The population of this country was then 4,000,000—it is the United States sent to France produce now 18,000,000, and does not export so much agricultural produce altogether, as it then did to France alone. Tho free trade wes not alone on the part of France. This country, from 1789 to 1807, enjoyed an unrestricted com- merce, withimport duties 0 low as to be scarcely felt. Our government had not learned to meddle with private affairs, and to take money out of the pockets of the mony and put it into those of the few, under the shallow pre* tence of « protecting industry.” ‘That policy was indeed ogitated; but the vigorous intellects of Madison, Jefferson and Franklin, laid the evil spirit for a time. The late measures of this government have been adopted by bare majorities; and though uncalled for by any foreign out- rage, are designed to produce a nen-intercourse with other nations. ‘The power of Congress to impose taxes for revenue purposes, is unquestioned; nevertheless, an act which extinguishes revenue, cannot be considered the legitimate use of a power to impose taxes. A measure to prohibit trade is surely not-an honest exercise of the Power to “regulate commerce.” The present tariff i, Unquestionably a wanton abuse of the federal powers over commerce and taxation. At the period to which wehave alluded, viz, from 1787 to 1887, the policy ot England was prohibitory,tund ours free. duties on manufactures was 6 per cent, until General Piacoa in his report of March, 1792, stated as fol- lows :— “ The addition of 2} per cent to the duty on ofthe articles now EAS at five, will oe oe portant, though not an excessive augmentation. Never- theless it is proposed that it shall be only temporary , and there is reasonable ground of expectation, that the cause pe karee recourse to it willnot be ef very long con: or How little do these opinions the prosent day! The discharge of the debt was the ut- most limit fixed by Hamilton for the continuance of duties of 7f per centon cotton and woollens. The present aye- tem is to impose 50 to 160 per cent duty on the same goods porpetually, “ toencourege mannfactures!” The moderate views of that day here, and the restrictions of England, produced the following regults on the ton” nage of the two countries employed in foreign com™ merce :— Comparative STATEMENT oF BritisH axp AMERICANITON.

Our registered tonnage in I841, with 17,000,000 of people, was but 945,903 tons! ‘There is an impression that the growth of commerce in those years was oy ing to the European wars. The wars broke out in 1792—in the three prior years of free trade the tonnage rose 400 per cent. From that time to 1797, it rose but 50 per cent—showing that the war checked the in- crease. The prosperity of that period was owing to the removal of all restrictions. The little circles of State re. strictions were swept away by the constitution, and the Jow duties of the federal government, allowed the whole to advance irresistibly. After 1807, war difficulties or embargoes came en; and after the peace the wicked and insane policy of high tariffs was commenced. By piling restriction on restriction, cutting off intercourse with all countries, and enclosing ourselves within thé circle of our own confederacy, we are gradually placing the Union in a situation worse than colonial, under pretence of en- couraging commerce, in order to “rear up a navy.” Our policy hos been to enlarge an intercourse with all the world for empty skips of the most expensive construc: tion. We have given bounties to $¥,000° tons jof shipping employed in fisheries, and have imposed @ tax of over $300 per ton on 2,180,744 tons employed in the foreign and coasting trade. The policy ot Eng- land has been the direct reverse, and in spite of natural advantages, our ships, under a contmuance of thre present policy, will be driven from the ocean.

Itistrue, the duty upon cordage was equivalent to $90 per ton ; but in 1929 the duty upom hemp was $60 per ton to protect the grower. Hence the Russian manufactu. rers had a premium of $60 per ton to undersell the Amo, rican. Nor was this all. The Russian account of con dage exported from St. Petersburg to the U. States in 18% was 3,612,820 Ibs. the import into the U, States in that yea was, as above, 1,228,820 Ibs. being a discrepancy of 2,30¢- 000 Ibs. between the Russian export and the United State import. The anomaly is easily explained. Ships weit from here scantily rigged, and took there a dove supply, a8 well as double suits of sails. These appesin the Russian exports, but not in the American impor.— Had it not been,for this evasion of the tariff, our shiping could not have increased as much as it actually hi— This exhibits the endless manner in which oppreson begets oppression. $60 per ton was levied upon hen to protect the growers, This ruins the cordage make.
