I'll 1st opinion is suslained by tho following remarks of Alexander Hamilton, in nis re port ou Manufactures'll 1790: “Bounties are aomeiun s not only the best, liui the only proper expedient, for uni titi£ tho encoiii.igeitie.iil of a new nhjoc.t ol agriculture.

If prior to the domestic production of the oiuteriul, in sufficient quantity, to supply tn manufacturer ou good terms, a duty bo 1*6 upou the importation of it from abroad, w iiii a view to promote the raising of it at home the interest boihvif the manufacturer ami the fanner will be dissevered B, eitliei destroying the requisite supply, or raising the price of .the article, beyond wliat can be afforded to lie given for it, by iho conductor uf an infirm manufacture, it is abandoned or fails; and there being no domemic miniu factories, to create n demand for tlie ruw material, whhtb is raised by tin* farmer, it is iu vniu iliut tbo conipelitiou of tlie like fo reign articles muy have been deeiruyed. “ The true wav to conciliate these two in toresis, is to tap a duty on foreign uianufitr tures of the material, the growth of which s desired to be encouraged, and to apply the produce of that duly by way of bounty, either upon the production of the material itself, nr upon its manufacture tit home, or upo both. In this clispog'lion uf the tiling, the manufacturer commences bis enterprise, un *ler every advantage, which is attainable ns lo quantity or price of ibe ravv material end the farmer, if the bounty be immediate ly given in him, is enabled by it to euter into a successful competition with the foreign material. “ There'is no purpose to which public mo ney can he more beneficially applied than to the ai-qui-dtioii of a new ami useful branch of industry ; no consideration more valua ble than a permanent addition lo the general stock of productive labor!” In conclusion of this part of the subject, your Committee would allude to ihe exam pie uf ibe British government. It hus been seen that when ibe Southern Hiates were British Colonies, Ihe Government eneour aged the growth of Indigo by a^bounty ol six-pence sterling per pound.

The Tables of Exports and Imports of In digo for several years, annexed to this report will exhibit the importance of this article to our commercial interests.

His Excellency John Eortylh; Sin—Oh die evening of the 16th insT. a mastf xviltul and Atrocious milder wus perpetrated on that body of Mr. Jethro Jackson, a most worthy anil respectable citizen ot this county, byacertuin Fid*' lip Hiillo.\,o( imd county, on the road leading Iron*' Tlioinastoh to Kendal's Mills. Mr. Jackson w ua returning I’l-oiii Ins son’s residence iu Merivi tther county, end met with said Haltox in ’ihoiaastoii. und residing in die vicinity of each other, they ana i,titers rode together towards hmna, and on tiielt way Iluttox dragged him off irora his horse on tha public road and beat him cruelly, and in the act ot be ny rescued by a gentleman ill com; uny, lie stuck lii.it in die forehead witli a rock, winch produced^ u.niost instantaneous death, having only lingered la.'t a few hours niter—said Hutto* having prcvV ously threatened to murder him and si me offers. This Mr. llutox is a man of u most turbulent and desperate character. It is hut little over twelve months since he dirked or stubbed a citizen of Lay ette county, whose liie was despaired of, but baa survived his wounds. Iu that instance he escaped tl,« just punishment of Ihe law, by piiyingacotisiunp- utile amount of money to the injured party. Tbo instances are numerous in which he lias hefetnioro been guilty of the violations oi the law, nnd whichf have been overlooked hy those who were mot* iimuediatoly concerned. Suitable' picrtionc have been used to bring him to justice in this recent (ra’iisaction, but be has thu* far eluded nil search, and we know of no other moans by which he can now lie brought to justice^ but through the interference of your Executive hus thority. This, Sir, is a case ol the deepest dye, and tho murder lias been wilful (ami from all tho circumstances ol the CRsetbus far developed) de signed. The respectability of his family and con nexions in this aitd the adjoining county, (us w ell us the citizens of Upson county) cutis loudly that lie should be brought to justice. As a further proof of the feeling evinced on tills occasion, tit* accompanying document will satisfy your Excel lency of the enormity of the man’s guilt— Th# near connexions oi the deceased, have thought fif to offer the suui of Five itended Dollars as an ad ditional reward fo an cy may deem fit to oil' beg leave that their letter or o any sum which your Excellerw o otter ou th is occasion; and they letter or paper should be pew milted to accompany your Proclamation, in thp \SHL\GTON Sheriffs Sale....
