Cause we have been accush med to
look at tilings abroad and disre
gard those at home. We do tot
speak wildly. There are about til
teen millions of shc< p—and their
increase, woo! and skins may be es
timated at fifteen millions of dollar
which is considerably more than tin
average value of all our flour and to
ba. co annually exported for the last
three years. Ought not this matt, r,
this “wool-gathering" idea as in de
rision it may be called, in re: pert to
the home trad and home supply, to
sink deep in our minds, when we
compare it with the twoGreatStaple.-
of our Foreign trade and Eon ign de
mand, tor the protection of which
latter, or either of them, we alway
Stan as prepared even to contend
*.n battle 1 It would be well lor eve
ry person to enquire, in the secret
of his own heart, why these things
are—why it is that we despise, or
neglect, that which we have within
Ourselves, while we support minister.-
abroad and maintain fleets of inen-of-
W; rin the mt st di taut seas, to de
fend by argument anti arms, inter: -is
that yield so small a comparative
profit, when we have reference to the
amount received for flour or tobac< o
exported ? We complain not of 'this
defence—we wish it continued ai <i
extended as the case shall re/piire ;
but we cannot see why property and
products at home should not have
the same fostering can as property
and products abroad ! |i a tariff,
which shall protect the growers and
Manufacturers of wool, and the scores
oi millions oi dollars vested bv
them,* may operate as a tax on oth
er parts of the community (which,
how ever, we do not admit that'it
would) shall not these say also and |
With certainty, that they are taxed to
keep up fleets in flic Mediterrane
an, West hid an, South Atlantic and
Great South seas, to protect articb
exported of much less annual valm
than those which they produce am.
possess wit bin our own land—and
ask w hy, peculiar privileges or ad
vantages have been granted, or are
Continued ?
Further—much fear is expressed
of a loss of the British West India
trad*', —-and a shutting of the port
of Cuba would throw us into grta;
alarm, because of a restricted de
mand for our Hour—and yet the N
England states receive from New
York, Pennsylvania, Maryland at d
Virginia, a much greater quantity
of flour than we export Io all tin
West India Islands. Those states
import, from their sislei states, mon
than 025,000 barrels a year, btsidi
large quantities of corn—the /c
foreign export of llour was oi.l
li.trteN in 182« r >, and 858 IHh
in 1826. New England is enable,
to t reive and consume this great

as any that can be draw, from “holy

and cheated thus, by British agents
and others about British dree trade?’
There is a degree of impudence in

that the most distinguish among

accrue from their presses, as they
