An effVt is loa ning at Washington, which, if suc cessful, will prostrate our best in terests, and which it is our impera ’ five duty to protest against, in the most unequivocal terms. It is an attempt to render the agrieultural and commercial interests subservi ent to that of the manufacturer.and if not resisted, the consequences may be our ruin, and that of the whole southern section of *he coun try.—ls we are not heard, we have ourselves to blame : “At a recent and numerous moo ting of the citizens of Charleston, called to consider the tendency of the proposed Bill under discus sian in Congress, to ficrease the j Tariff on articles of foreign manu faeiure imported into the United i States, it was unanimously resolved, that a remonstrance against the said measure should forthwith be | transmitted to Congress, and that a Committee be raised to correspond with other parts es the State, res pecting the expression of their sen timents, and tbeir <mi.operation with the citizens of Charleston. Li om plianre with the latter resolution, we have the honor to address you.
