; JIR. Al) VMS vs. 'mi TARIFF.
V\ e are gratified to present lo our readers tlie
( following letter from Washington, shewing the
very decided Opposition of Mr. Adams to tlie Ta
-1 riff, and paiticularly to Mr. Ci. tv’s shameful pro
| ject of reduction. Though wc have seldom ap
! proved nt Mr. Adams's politics, wo have gcncr
-5 ally looked upon him as a good man, and as a j
. weak aud misguided, rather than designing or i
. dishonest politician; learned rather than wise, !
and knowing more es books than men ; and wo ;
are now more than ever gratified, fiat though j
we warmly advocated llio cause of his opponent, j
| ' n the late election, tve did not join in any of tlie !
violent abuse oi ii in, nor urged against him ei- |
tlier tlie “Bargain” or “Coalition,” all the j
blame of which wc believed, and still believe, I
alii ibutable to Mr. Ci, ay, who succeeded in do-j
coivijig rather than corrupting linn.—Tho letter >
, in question is copied from the Charleston l.vq- '
ning Post, the editor of which observes, in re- .
lation to it, “Mr. Adams lias elevated Itiin
self incalculably in our estimalioii, as a Patriot
tuul Statesman, by tho manly and enlightened \
view Which he lias taken of our oppressions, ini
denouncing as it deserves, llio execrable project '
of Mr. Clay. Tho South lias found an ally where j
an ally was never looked for, tun! we confess
that hopes which were nearly extinct have been
revived by the consideration of llio benefit to the j
good cause, which such an avowal fi am such a,
quarter must necessarily involve.*'
Washington, Jm. 11, 1833. i
Mr. Adams, you know, is chairman of the j
committee on mamifactu • js. At llm meeting of,
the committee this morning, lie came out in the 1
most decided manner in favor of a reduction of j
the duties, usitiir substantially tills strong lan- 1
giiage : —“Mr. Clay’s proposition is entirely in
admissible; it keeps tlie word of promise lo the '
car and breaks it lo the sense. lam lor afford :
ing suhstunlial relief to tin; south ; their com- i
plaints are just—limy am oppressed —they can
not, and mill nut bn satisfied with any delusive j
scheme of modification. I tell gentlemen they |
must relieve the south or Flour them. I, for one, ,
declare that 1 will not hazard tliu union for any
scheme of policy like the present tariff.” The
gentleman from whom 1 received this report
may have misunderstood the ex-president in llio ,
strength of los language, but it is veiy. certain I
that ho expressed in strong terms ins opinion that
tlie south was oppressed and must be relieved,
mid that Mr. Clay’s project was illusory, using
the strong expression that 'hey most relieve or
fight the south, (have no time for speculations;
the probability is, that in the senate the tariff
party will bo‘ (inn—but that in our house wo
shall obtain an indication of a disposition to re
dress our wrongs. Mr. Adams, lam inclined lo
hope, is honest in llm views winch be lias ex
pressed—you will perceive that lie biings great
weight to onr side, in assorting that wo are op
pre-iied, and that Clay’s scheme is deceptive.
\r«rsT.\ oau.v nitioxichn.
Jl will be seen by reference lo llm “ Piopo
sals,” in our advertising columns, that wo have
dctoi mined to pnbiir It tlie Augusta Chronici.e
! Daily, ns oat ly as a sufficient quantity of New
Type and other materials can be obtained from
the North. And, in olVoring tills project to the
patronage of the public, we bug leave to lie un
derstood ns appealing solely lo their interest, as
the only solid and piopor b.isisot'such tin under
taking. Our own interest prompts us lothoon
terptize, from tt belief that it may be profitable
to ourselves, as well as useful lo the public; for,
unless it bo usefu', and therefore profitable, to
tlie public, it origin not to be, and we are sensi
ble cannot and will not bo, profitable tons; and
\vo therefore tlesi.c no one to patronize it, but
f.i.m an expectation of “value received” for
their money, or to continue their subset iptions
thereafter, should they be disappointed in that
expectation. Tho eo.uect principle of all busi
ness Iransactiins (and this is, of course, as much
a business transaction as any other) and the only
one on which they can bo safely, honestly, pro
■ fualtly, or pc nianentiy -maintained, is mutual,
belt iJit and si IJ" interest. And, inlying u oaihis,
in llm present entorpilze, wo shall look closely
and actively lo the interests,of our subscribe!s,
as tho best means of pionmting our own—sensi
( bio Unit whether they like or dislike us person
ally, they will patronize the paper, if wo make it
lo their interest lo do so, and that the more in
dustrioiisly and j crscvoringly we labor for them,
i the more general and valuable will bo their pa*
j tronago. And, should we at any time, become
forgetful of them and our duties, the best way
of correcting tho evil, and arousing our energies
and proper sense of llio source from whence we
derive our profits, will bo to withdraw llmir
patronage, till it shall be to their interest to re
new it. This will bo due lo themselves, and
nothing more than jost to ns. And, while no
editor Inis tho’iight lo enquire of a subscriber the
cause of a withdrawal of bis subscription, to com
plain of him for it, would be lo attach lo others,the
blame, which, in nine cases out of ten. is due on
ly to ourselves. Isa tnan docs not consider it
bis interest to continue his subscription longer, i
whether right or wrong in his opinion, ho is just
as free to do so, as to withdraw Ins patronage
liom any Store—and lo enquire of him llic cause,
is impertinent, while to blame him for, it, Is arro
gant and unjust. Tlie patronage of a paper
should always ho given, or withdrawn, from a
sense of the value of the paper to the public, or
to ones self, without any reference whatever to
tlie editor personally, whom onCmay like ordis- j
like, without liking or disliking Ins paper—and j
■ therefore an editor should never consider tlie j
withdrawal of subscription,as a personal matter,
in the least, or feel tho less respect or regard (or
the individual who withdraws it. Its only effect
should bo to prompt him to an examination of
Ills conduct, and the correction of any errors
lie may discover, and to stimulate him to
greater exertions—determined, at least, neither
to deserve censure, or lossufpationage, so far as
his honest efforts can avail lo prevent it. As to
the withdrawal of patronage fora difference of
political or religious opinion, that is a thing
which should never pain, or move for a moment,
any honest and independent editor, as, amid the
endless variety of human opinion on those sub
jects, the same expression of opinion which
would induce one mao to withdraw, would in-
m i i n mihii
ducc another or more lo subscribe—at least, so
we have found it.
Commercial patronage, however, Inis little or
nothing to do with personal controversy or con
flict of opinion; but is founded,principally, on in
dustry, energy, honesty, and perseverance, in
tho quick publication of all important facts, and
altlo and intelligent comments upon them, cal
culated to devclopo their true nature and conse
quences. And, commercial men, undivided and
I unprejudiced by party,will,as all others ought to
. do, always carefully examine both sides of every
| question, looking more to tlu; intrinsic value of
: the opinions A arguments themselves,than lo tho
j persons who utter them,. However, then, we
■ may differ from any of onr merchants politically,
] while wo shall continue freely to express our po
| lit leal opinions, iminlhicnccd by any man or any
patty, we have no doubt they will patronize us,
so long as we may make it to their interest to do
iso, commercially; and the Daily paper will be
j devoted eliietly to their interests. And they can
, not be unaware, that no paper can honestly a
groo with them altogether, and that while they
differ from ns m some things, they will probably
1 agree with us in others, and the same also with
j any paper that boldly and honestly expresses, as
evciy one ought to do, its own opinions, and not
those of a puny, or of any other paper or person,
i We believe that a Jirsl-rate Daily Paper, such
' as we are determined that ours shall bo, will bo
' highly valuable lollio place, and profitable both
ilo its patrons and to oursolves. Tins groat ob
ject of commercial men, in patronizing papers, is
j to obtain tlio earliest commercial intelligence
from all quarters; and to etfect tins, many mb
! scribe for several daily commercial papeis, pub
lished in different quarters. Vet still, us few,-if
any, canTifiord to have one from every sen port,
! or commercial town,intelligence will often arrive
by papers which they do not lake, which will give
i those who receive those papers, the advantage
of them. And beside Ibis, many of them have
scaicoly time to look through all llio commer
j cial matter of every paper they receive (and of
tten to no effect,)lo find such as concerns them
! selves or the particular business of this city.
Onr object will ho to have every commercial
pacer that is desirable, throughout llio Union—to
get them from tho Post-office, each evening, tlie
1 the moment they arc received there—and to se
lect from them, set in typo, during the night,
and publish by sunrise, next morning, all tho im
tant commercial intelligence tlmy contain —al-
so, tlie important political and oilier news, so far
as the time will permit—giving tho preference,
always to the commercial, and all that mostly
concerns the commercial community. Tims lay
ing before the Merchant, each mo.ning, before
lie leaves his residence, all that valuable in
formation which is calculated to govern his
transactions throng limit the day. To effect
all tliis, tlm paper will lie consider,ily enlarged,
11« o bust of woiUmen will be engaged, and tlie
giniunoicial dopaitment placed exclusively un
der tlie control of a commercial editor. By thus
concentrating all the valuable common ial intel
ligence from all ([Uni tors, the Merchants of this
place may lie saved llio great expense in
cuired in duilys from abtond, and tlie onerous
trouble of searching through a bushel of com
mercial chaff, for a grain of wheat, and often not
even that—and will roeeiv. It also some hours
earlier than they could obtain the foreign po.—rs
whieli contain it, from the Post Office.—lt will
be both an expensive and laborious cntorjirize;
lint, neither labor or expense are lo he cured for,
in anv undertaking, so long as they can ho suc
cessfully and profitably employed; anil of this
we have not tlio slightest doubt in the present
: enterprize —at any rate we have determined not
lo sparo them, in tlie effort for success; and
some generous fiienls, who entertain sim
ilar opinions of its success, and eonfi Iciicc
in our exertions, have hid the kindness D
step forward volmita ily with ofieis of pecu
niary assistance, should we need it.—Wo are in
treaty with a gentleman of extensive commercial
ns well as general iiileiligenoe-aind information,
for a sale to him of one half of the establishment
—lie to take upon himself the entire control of
the eommoi eial department of it. But, should
not thin arrangement he made, an able, intelli
genl, and capable commercial editor will be en
gaged. —Wc shall slake e.very tiling upon Ibis
■ enterprize, and wa trust the community is suffi
ciently acquainted with ns to believe, that we
art; not disposed to do things by halers. Tho
question, then, is, Will such a paper lie valuable
to them—worth Ihe price of it! All we ask, is,
giro us a fair trial, tit the start, and. if you arc
disn/i/minteil, withdraw your patronage, ntonee,
without Ihe least, hesitation.

In the House of Representatives, Mr, Jenifer |

A following resolution, submitted by Mr. Clay :
“Httsoleed, Tli.it the existing duties upon ai ti
des impoi ted from foreign countries, and not
coming into cumpolition with similar articles,
1 made or produced within the United Stales,
0 ought to ho forthwith abolished, except tlio du
ties on winus and silks, and that they ought to
t be reduced.
1 hcsulrnl, That tlie Uoinmitloo on Finance

j Mr. Hayne moved to amend tho first rcsolu
tion, by striking out all alter the word '‘conn

- lowing :
f “Be so reduced, that the amount of the p üblic
revenue shall bo sufficient to defray llic expen

jclcs made or produced in tho United States, tlie
I duties he ultimately ct/aalizetl, so that tint duties
i uni no article shall, us compared with the value ol
i that in tide, vary materially, from tlie general
average.”
Mr. Hatnk then addressed tho Senate in an
f eloquent and interesting argument, of groat
. ! length, (which will bo given as soon as prepared
, I for the press) mid, when he bad concluded, Mr.
| Dickerson moved to postpone llic further con
