From the Banner of the Constitution.
In the discussions which have taken
place in relation to the tariff policy, suffi
cient has not been snid upon the differ
ence between the operation of high du
ties, and bounties. If there be any rea
son to believe that any particular manu
facture can ultimately succeed if upheld
by temporary aid, the proper sort of pro
tection to he extended to it, is that of
•(ranting a bounty. The effect of this
would he precisely the same to the indi
vidual to he benefitted, as a law enabling
him to raise the price of his commodity,
w hilst the mischief to the public would
be comparatively trivial. To illustrate
our meaning we will state a case.
There is now in the State of Pennsyl
vania a manufactory of iron screws,
known under the denomination of wood
screws, and we have understood that it is
the only one ofthe kind in the 11. States.
Ky the tariff'of 1831, the duly on wood
screw s was 30 per cent, but the proprie
tor of this establishment, although resid
ing in the interior, where living was
cheap did not .find it sufficient to enable
him to get rich fast enough: or, if the rea
ders very charitable we will say, did not
find it enough to save him from loss. He
accordingly, in 1828, when the Commit
tee mi manufactures cried out foe all who
w ished to join in the general system of
plunder that was then preparing, to send
in their requisitions, this gentleman, or
some kind friend for him, finding that
those who had formerly strained at a knal,
would now swallow a camel, slipped in
a quiet way into a corner ofthe bill an
additional 10 percent, on wood screws.
Vow, let us see how this operates.
By the official returns of the Secreta
ry ofthe Treasury, which we have be
fore us, it appears, page3(l, that the value
of the “screws, called wood screws,” im
ported into the United States during the
year ending on the 30th September, 1829,
was *01.048. The duty upon this amount
is 821,729 30. The quantity of screws
manufactured by the establishment refer
red to, we have no means ofascertain
inir: hut supposing it to be as much as
814,000 per annum, the aggregate a
mount of the increased price which those
who use screws have to pay for that ar
ticle on account of the duty, is upwards
°* And for what? Merely to
enable one individual to grow rich, or to
carry on a losing trade. Would it not
be manifestly better for the public, to give
this gentleman a bounty equal to 40 per
cent upon the value of the screws manu
taetured by him, than to give him this
sum, and have to pay besides near $25,-
• i \i° a " over nment that docs not want
>t . We arc aware, that in stating the case
thus, we have left out of view the fact,
that a part of this duty, under any cir
cumstances, would bo required for ordi
nary revenue purposes. Even admitting
one half to he called for by the public
service, still there remains a tax of fifteen
honsand dollars, paid by the people for
he support of one establishment. Ac
cording to our view oflhesubject, it would
icgood policy to allow this individual a'
pension often thousand dollars a year,
Pon (he condition of his ritiring from
"isincss, rather than keep the high duty
mi screws, which are so necessary to the
nod work of every house,
u preferring bounties to tariffs, we arc
0 >o be understood ns expressing an
imnon that they can be lawfully grant
k Ti i ** eil eral Government. What
; ed a h° ulU y up ° n th e exportation

ivninai voluntarily subscribes a hun
-1 dollars towards a premium for the
fattest calf, or the finest colt, or the best
fruits br vegetables, or the best spun yarn,
or the neatest wove cloth, that can be
produced at a fair, no one has a right to
complain. But every man has a right to
complain if he should be called upon by
law to contribute towards such a fund,
against his consent, & particularly when
he knows that no fund can be extorted
from him, that does not do him more mis
chief than it does good to the one who
receives it. Peter and Paul, as a joint
co-partnership, arc clearly not benefitted,
if Peter is robbed to pay Paul, and espe
cially, if in the transit ofthe money from
Peter’s pocket to Paul’s pocket, one-half
of it is dropped by the way & lost, which
is the ease with all the transfers made un
der the American System.
From the Savannah Georgian.
The Post-Master at Smithville, N. C.
has written to the Post-master of this city
to'Caution the people of Savannah a
gainst two absconding persons named
Joshua B. Davidson, a thick-set, tolerable
good looking man, about 3(5 or 28 years
of age. and about 5 feet 7 inches high, by
profession a confectioner, bar-keeper,
&c. &c. and Samuel Lewis alias Shut
tleworth, about 5 feet 9, freckled, with a
scar on his face, about 21 or 22 years of
age, by profession a brick-layer. They
made their escape in a small fishing
smack called the “ Anceline, ofShrews
berry,” thought to be bound for Savan
nah.
The New-York Journal of Commerce
mentions that an investigation had taken
place on a charge of arson, against an in
dividual, which bore a very suspicious
aspect. The circumstances of the case
are, that his clerk who went in the even
ing to Brooklyn to bathe, had occasion
to go to the store on his return, when he
discovered a light in a chest, which he
found to proceed from a candle placed in
the centre of a large quantity of combus
tible matter. The candle had been re
cently lighted, and it was clearly intend
ed by the incendiary, that the fire should
not take place until the candle had burn
ed down to the combustibles, which
would have been about one o’clock. The
property is stated to have been insured for
more than four times its value. The per
son suspected is among the missing, and
it is ascertained that all his effects have
been assigned to a friend.
The Census returns in Ohio, show an
astonishing increase of population. The
advance so far as ascertained, is 63 per
cent. Her present population is estima
led at nearly a million. New-York, it is
supposed, will fall but little short of two
millions—some of the towns in the Wes
tern section, having much more than dou
bled since 1820.

feitures are otherwise unconditional, and

tisement, on route, JVo. , from
to , for the yearly compensation of
dollars."
He must state the place of his residence;
and, if not contractor, must accompany
his bid with satisfactory recommenda
tions.
10. The distances, ns stated, are be
lieved to be substantially correct; but if
any mistakes have occurred in relation

the property, its value, the terms of pay
ment, and its security, each may choose
a person, who may appoint an umpire,
and theirdccision shall be final; or if the
underbidder declines to do this, the Post
master General will name the umpire.-

all damages that may result from his fai
lure to comply.

without the approbation of the Postmaa
tcr General; and the assignment of a cons
tract without his consent, shall forfeit it.
This rule,will never be departed from.

violate the Post Office law, or shall trans
mit commercial intelligence by express
more rapidly than the mail, his contract
shall be forfeited.
