l dut e of C^ e Uie inac “*^rdS^fViJ^!iSin and
bH • re ss, >n relauon i a veto of ,hat
bi. , and that their feelings would be manifes
ted in a way to show an unalienable determi
nation to sustain their former position aoainsi
the exercise of the veto p nver, and agiinst
Executive influence over the legislation of
Congress.
On the receipt of your Veto Message, lt
was believed the public interest would be
prompted bv making another effort to meet
your views in relation to a F.scal Agent; and
your political friends in both Houses^intent on
carrying out the great measure li.r which this
extra session was called, determined tnat ail
feelings of fortification or resentment should
be sacrificed to the public good.
1 hey accordingly passed the Bankrupt Bill,
the Land Bill, and another Bank Bilk The
two former have been approved by you:—
the latter is now under your consideration—
ever-busy rumor predicts anotlier veto. I
trust we are not to be subjected to that hu
miliation, and that you will, on this occasion,
justify the expectations of your friends, and !
disappoint the hopes of your enemies.
The public mind is too much exceed to re
ceive another Veto, without the most une
quivocal manifestations of disapprobation,
not to say indignation. Such feelings existed
but were suppressed on the firmer occasion, i
because it was seen that Congress was ma ;
king a great and mighty effort to recover;
from the blow which that Message inflicled
—a blow the more severe, and the less to he
resisted, because infl.cied by a fr end—by
him too, who had come into power with the |
rich legacy of the lamented Harris >n — !
narneiy, “ to understand and carry out the
true principles of the Government,” of which
this measure was the I-a ling one. Those 1
feelings cannot longer be sopprtssed, after ;
another exercise oi ihe Veto power on the |
present bill. That bill, it is wII understood,
sens prepared in pursuance of your mgg-s. j
tions. after full consultation with y ur Cu’>i
vet, and with other gentlem ii ;an I its pruvis- !
ions made to conform to your vines, and with !
the unequivocal understanding, that it would
meet your approbation.
It vv;s brought foiward an! p sod In
your friends in Congress, lor iiie pm pose oi i
obviating all difficulties on your part, belie v iug j
as they’ did, from the most undoubted sources, !
that its provisions had received vour saocoou. j
1 cannot, therelore, tor one in mi in. pur.su.nl „■ ;
myself that any credit ought to h ; given to
the rumor of a second Veto.
It rarely happens, in tiie course of one’s
public Career, that an opportunity oilers
which enables a iinn to di imgmsh him elf
and, at the same time, to render the most im
portant service to the country. Wnenevef
such an opportunity does present itself, il he
lias the sagiciiy to perceive ii, and the mor
al courage to embrace it, he can gain lor
himself the enviable title of a public benefac
tor. 1 bat is our situ ition at the present lime.
The great and iulhresis of the
country requ-rs some sort ol a National In
stitution, which shall furnish a umlojin cur
rency and equalize the exchanges. Without
thes.-, we cannot expect that prospe itv in bu
siness, to which t .e people are emitted, amt
which you have ii in your power tit promote, |
bv granting to them sueh an insiiiirioii as
they h ve asked tbronghtheii r p esentatives.
Under these auspices, the business of the
coontrv would he once uno e rev.vcd, and
vr.ur name would become closely identified
Willi all th ise great interests which it is the
li,iI i,i iuf an honorable ambition to encourage
aud sustain. The wounds infl c eil by ih<
veto of the former bill, would he c entri/.eu
h/ Itie approval of this. The feelings <4
disappointment which now pervade l tie wnoe
country would be turned into joy, and that
jty would tie heightened b.v me n U nion,
th it neither pride of opinion nor ii consider
ate counsels c mid long prevail over Ike pat
riotic impulses of one determined to do his
duty to Ins party as well as to his country. —
It will be no answer to an o ‘er-anxious and
ex sited people, to sav that hereafter some
thing mav he done. Tuev will tell you that
*•h reafler is yet to come,” and ihat they re
quire it nmv 5 that they have for a series >f|
years combatted the veto power and execu- |
live dictation:—that the resistance of this
power is the very foundation on which the
principles of the pa t. are based, and that they
cannot auv longer tamely and quietly sub- :
mil to see their pri ci It s trampled under.

elected by t lemselves to carry out their great 1
measures, of which a National Bank wa- the j
most p eminent and important: That tin v
camml consent to lose, by an ingot urns ami !
pusillanimous acquiescence that nioial l>>ive
which their resistance of this power has al
ways given them, and wi bout wlncu they
cannot preserve even their own sell res pet ■,
much less the respect and confidence of the
country. .
In my former communication, t exposed art
apprehension that the rejection ol that bid
would distract and destroy the party ; I have
ennui'll ol |>wh!.o sontimuiif a!rtv.\.
convince me o! the error ol that opinion.
J ant satisfied tnat a rejection of me present
bill will not district or destroy the p; rv. A
Veto mav be lire means ol throwing a wink
and insignificant liagm ntof it into tiie ill.cit
embraces of the opposition, but that wu! omy
serve to give new life and renewed energy to
the great and patriotic mass which remains.—
They will see the motives which control sue,!

fruits of die plot ions victory, achieved mmu
the ga l.nt H.rriso.v, are thus inge rou--

another contest —a contest, not only ol pm
ciple, but of feeling, and, nniimted by every
motive that can arouse the patriot to action#
they will again triumph, under auspices th/t
w‘tf render’their victory permanent and co/n

that you will seize this occasion to sustain ti e
confidence of the party which placed ;vou

Let no lusty opinions which may have ;

COTTON TRADE.
The crop of cation for the year has been
made up at the south, this year, to the Ist of
September, instead of the Ist of October, as
has been the case heretofore ; consequently
the present crop is the receipts for eleven
months only, and th * next will ho those for
tiiirioaii mouths. They arc, “however, so ex
ceed, ugly Sunil during the present month,
that it wdl mike but little difference as to the
actual result. The following is a table of the
crops, as compare I with other years :

During the six'months ii appears, then, that
the decrease in imparts was not so gr eat as
the decrease in qnan'ity taken, by the trade.
For the coming year the supply will be much
grea.er in proportion to the consumption.—
ikie usual hue and cry is now raised train the
s >u‘h as to injury sustained by the new cr >p.
Pliere is in some sections a little truth in the
matter, but under any circumstances that can
now arise, the crop will be fully equal to that
of jus? year. The cotton holders are very’
Jespoiiding, but they do not yet make up their
munis to submit to the large reduction de
nanded by shipper?.
‘Pile Savannah Republican, and other Whig
fourna’s, have been attempting to mollify
public indignation against the now revenue j
L.i!]. bv arguing that the consumer would pot
be taxed with the increased duty. \\ e ask the
n ipers which have adopted the new theory, to
show wherein consists the fallacy of the rea
soning in the subjoined article from the New
York Herald, of the iS.h of this month.
The revenue bill, with its onerous provi
ions, goes into operation at the close of the
present month. Its effects are already felt by
the consumers in the advance of at least 30
percent upon all those articles which are a!- j
lecteff fay the biii- This is equal to a. tax of at
least upon the people. In order 1
o make the ax palatable, it has been alleged
ny us advocates, that the duty is not paid by
iiia consumers, but by the foreign manufactur
ers. It requires some degree.of boldness to
put forth this theory at the moment when eve
i rv consumer feels daily in his expenses, that
ihe is himself paying it. The article of silks
| particularly, has been stated, not only because
;it is tailed a luxury, but fecar.se the largest
proportion of those consumed here, are the
i f.ibric of France, and the tin v is looked upon,
I most strangely, however, by the tobacco grow
ers, as retail.ng for the interna! duties imposed
upon tobacco in France ; and yet these very
tobacco growers are dependant upon the in>-
i oort of sulks for the sale of a large portion of
i tobacco. Who are ihe consumers of French
i silks! A moment’s reflection will convince
I : , nv onG that tii - largest consumers are not the
...j-.],, but ‘the middling and lower classes of
Urijale -in the United States. A great num
ber ui these earn their silky by their own ni
dus rv, and when they are citeap, they can
! roeu're a greater nutnlter of tiiein. A lax
1,;, , n flirts either takes tiie money directly out
of the jiockets of the industrious females, or
deprives them from wearing silks nTogether.
To do away with the odium of this effect, it is
s-Htch? to convince the public that whatever
rax may le imposed the price is netedianced
to ihe.consumer. That organ of speculators,
the ‘* Nnt.onul Inteliigeocer,” recently stated
as s dlows upon tii.s subect:
“it is proposed, for example, to levy artuty
ol twenlv per cent on foreign silks. Tins, it
is supposed, bv the most intelligent dealers in
those articles’ will raise the price to the job
ben the retailer, and the consumer about five
nor cent. The remaining fifteen per cent of
,he on tv will be paid by the foreign manufac
tu er. *ln o*her words, he must submit to a
reduction on the selling prices to that a-
mount.” , ,
. this \v£re trite, we do rot see how rnan
ulVtures can he heuelrfed by a dutyotUbr
e-n goods, unless prohibitory. But this is
the theory. What is the fact! To come
right and wn to the domestic operation ot the •
1 \v, which ‘ ft r all is the great object of Jde,:
ther is . ; t a em 1* of fourteen years in the .
coun ry, bit vv 1 answer that within thirty j
da. s. silks i a e’ advanced more t sail ~u per i
ce t. Those r v.h ch she paid ßl cents per;
! vard last spring, she is now charged 81. For j
those that she purchased at sl, she m ist now
give nine and sixpence. 1 his advan e
into the pockets of those who had the stocks |
on hand. In consequence of the advance, I
less silks will he purchased. Those young j
women that, wi’k liie proceeds of two months j
industry, could purchase a frock, must now j
work two months and a half to effect the same \
object. Those that could better afford silks, 1
will prefer other textures for cheapness. The
consumption will therefore be diminished,
and less will be imported. It is then stated
that, when the foreign manufacturer rinds his
market falling off, he will decrease his price
fifteen per cent. It follows then, of course,
that he now gets 15 per cent more than he
can afford to sell for, and must consequently
be in a very flourishing condition, notwith
standing the degree of competition which
exists between the French, German and
Fnodish manufacturers. The well known
‘condition of the foreign silk markets entirely
disproves such a position. Without going
into that, h iwever, we can arrive at the ope
ration in a much more direct way. We find
in the memorial of the French Minister, M. de
Racuurt, to the government at Washington,
in relation to the commerce between this
country and France, that the whole value of
silks, manufactured in France, is f.1.>0.000,000
Os which is sent to the U. States, 50,000,000
On this 150,000,*)00, a duty of x!0 per cent is
now levied, of which, as stated above, 5 per
c ?nt will be paid at home, and 15 percent will
Ibe taken off the selling price abroad. This
\ reduction, it is clear, must corneoff the whole
| quantity, because one price cannot be main
tiined tor the United States, and a higher one
tor other countries, or for home use. This
reduction will then amount to f.22,500,4)00 or
nearly one half of the value of ail sent to the
nited States. There can be do grea er ab
surdity than the advancement of such a pre
tence, tor imposing an onerous tax upon almost
exclusively the female portion of the commu
nity. The question then arises, wherein con
sists the necessity for this tax ? The answer
;s plain, because Mr. Clay and the leading
members of th* dominant party, have been
compelled to obey the behests of the t ondon
holders of depreciated American stocks, and
taking at their bidding, from the National
Treasury, the proceeds of the pub'ic lands,
and hand it over to the States gratuitously,
as a kind of guarantee that they, the London
houses, shall receive the interest due te them.

“ REFORM AND REIHEF ’
‘The federal wliigs succeeded last year in
defeating the democrats placing themselves
m power. In iheir log cabins the cry was
raised, ofßtform, Relief, and Chan-e.”—
i'.iis cry spread from one end of the uni
on to the oilier; the people re echoed i% be
cause they believed in it ; they would not
harbour the idea that it was a deceitful cry;
they gave political power to the criers. For
vital? To reform the Government; to re
lieve ihe people from the distresses they were
suffering, and to change the sad condition ol
ihe country, for one of happiness and plenty.
The people of the Coiled Suites congratnla
led themselves on the radical change th j y had
erUcied in the executive and legislative bran
ches of the government. Prosperity was in
perspective; a sound currency would soon
afford relief from pecuniary pressure; and
the value of property lay regaining what ii
had lost, would render the proprietors as rich
as they were before the disasters of 1837
To redeem ihe promises made, & the p'edges
oivcri by ihe federal wliigs, an extra session
of Congress was called, in order to begin
die Work of reform, relief, and cliang , and to
show what Ihe parly in power could do for
the people. The moment that this extra ses
sion was announced*"bright faces were seen
every where, by Uie prospects of licit m
)"lies, so much was anticipated by the people
from men who had declared that none but
ihemselves c old save the country from ruin.
Well, Congress met in exlra session, and af
ter working very hard from theSlsl of May
lo the 11 ol September, they adjourned, io
complete their work of reform, relief, and
change, in December next. But the question
is, what have Congress done during the extra
session, lor reform and relief? Without
commenting on the several acts that were
adopted at this exlra session, we shall merely
stale their ohj c.t, leaving it to our readers to
judge of the effect those acis will have in re
iorming vihu-es, relieving the people from dis
)res--, and in changing the condition of the
count rv.
The fi st act that was passed was one ap
propria ting nearly $400,000.’ for ihe pay and
mileage of tiie members, and ex Dense of both
branches of Congress. By this act alone,
the people were relieved of $400,000, which
rern lined idle in the Treasury as a surplus
not needed lo meet the public expenditures.
The second act that was passed, was one
creating a national debt of 12,000 000. which
will 100 *>\rnr\r yCJir of u*rli/
one million of dollars, in ihe form of interest,
commissions, and other expenses incident to
die loan.
The third act passed was one appropria
ling $25,000 !or Mrs. Harrison.
Tiie fourth act passed was one nppropria
ting $780,300 fir borne squadron.
‘The fifth act passed was one repealing th
sub-treasury. Against this system mu. Ii has
been said and wntten ; but not a word has
ever been said against, its operation.
The sixth act passed was one appropria
ting $139 666 lor navy pensions.
The Seventeenth act passed was one es
tablishing a uniform system of bankruptcy.
Tlie eight act passed was one for distribu
ting the proceeds ot the public lands. As
the public Treasury was overflowing, and the
people needed relief, it is clear that the gov
eminent c mid di-pense with three millions of
dollars annually, without resorting to an in
c case of tuxes to meet th” deficit ichivh the
distribution of the proceeds of those lands
would produce.
The ii ith act passed was one appropria
ting two millions five hundred thousand dol
lars for repairs for lorlifications, &,c. fl his
no doubt will be a great relief to the people,
when we have a war.
The tenth act passed was one appropria
ting nearly five thousand dollars, in aid of the
Post Office department.
The eleventh act passed was one appropri
ating nearly six thousand dollars, for the pur
chase of ira val'nrdnanee, &c.
The twelfth act piss'd was one appropri
ating eighty thousand dollars, for salaries and
outfits for min sters going abroad.
Some other acts were passed, making ap
priations lor various objects, such as the Po
tomac bridge, Lunatic asyiuni, See.
The fact is, that almost every bid passed
at this extra session, was far an appropria
tion of money, to relieve the public treasury
of ti e surplus it contains.
But by far the best and most effective act
passed lor the relief of the people, was
the new tardi hid. 1 ins bill was the las!
passed, and the crowning wreath which is 1o
adorn the brows of ihe whig members of this
whig Congress. By tins Inil the peop'e will
he re in'd of about rev n o millions
of dollars annually from their surplus reve
nue: and if it had not been for that nousensi
ctd alarm raised by the democratic press a bout
ilie tax of 2d per cent, on iea and codec,' —
a duty which is so light that those who luxuri
ate ov r>t good cup of tea or coffee, would
never know it, if not told of it, —ye peop'e
would have been relieved .flhree millions
more. But unfjrtunacty aider the House
l ad passed the bill, and the whig m -mbers 1 -
fused to make tea and coffee free of duty, the
whig members of t e senate, thought other
wise t thov amended ihe hill so as to make
the importation ot tea and coffee free of du
rv. Tie whig members of t tie House, to
save this rclif bill from destrucl: >n. with wrv
faces and reluctant feelings, had to take hack
t e votes they had given for the tax on tea
and coffee, and to concur with the Senate in
making f • e of duty t o=e t vo art-cleg.
