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 suited fish, has always been intended ' . a "‘-T 0 Brawhack ofthe duty upon the j * " ,Ul they arc cured. In our cr n ' ) c estimation, Congress has no pow i ° Promote the progress of science 1 us<; tul arts,” whether in agriculture, minercc, or manufactures, hut “by sc ’ 'ng, for limited times, to authors and ' P ?. torS ' the exclusive right to their re id n P and discoveries;” that II only mode prescribed by the Constitu te • * * ,e Governments may Inw lif!?

Is a liberal and wealthy 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.
