Protecting unties to enrich manufacturers,! are like banks to enrich fanners, bishops to j save souls, or feudal lords to defend nations, j England has demonstrated the character of. each member ot this kindred q.rartuinvirate.!

My fellow labourers, mechanical or agri cultural, let us never bo del4 leu into an opin ion, that a distribution of wealth by the gov ernment or by law, wil! advance our inter st U e are tiie least successful courtiers of any rank in society, and ofcour. * li: ve the worst prospect of sharing in any species of wealth bestowed by government*. It is both con trary to the exp. uenee of all mankind, and even impossible. \\ e constitute the inajo ntyof nations. A minority administers gov i r.'iments and legislates. Compare the pro bability ot its taking weallli from itself to give it to tiie majority, with that of its de- Irauding tiie majority to enrich itself and its purezans ; and you will account for the reg-' iilsr current of cxpeiiencc. Consider, ho v ovir splendidly a minority may live upon the] labours ot a majority, that a majority catlno subsist upon those of a minority, and you will j see tieit it is impossible foi experience in fu-. tui'.i to t ach a different lesson. ■ Eel ns not. flattei ourselvi s, that ! :\vs can he made to cm dole majorities to plunder tliesc minorities, or to plunder themselves: cr to fatten a man by feeding him with slices cut Irotn h:sown body. !i a scheme could be! contrived in favor of agriculture, similar to; tiie protecting duty scheme in favor of manu facturers, it would enslave the farmers us it dots manufacturers. Tin ■.most favor which it. is possible for a gjv.rum-jnt to do for us • armors and mechanics, is neitln r to help not hun u=. ihe first it cannot do; for whom can laws strip or famish, to clothe or feed the vast majority we compose ? Aware that fraud : or oppression cannot permanently subsist, ex-{ cept by feeding ou major ties, those who com-! pose tiieso majorities, it they aje wise, never j fail to s'-etiiat their intc rest points to a repub lican form of government, for the verv pur-] pose of preventing the passage of laws fori quartering ot pasturing o.i them minor i de-j rests. These majorities nr the pasture up-, on which all minor factitious interest.*, now-1 ever denominated, fatten ; and it would !•• an! unnatural foe majorities to fatten upon such j legal minor interests, as lor pastures to cati the herds grazing on them. I ho interest of labour covers every nation- ] al majority, and every legal bounty is paid by i labor. This interest cannot receive, iegai ; bounties, because there cannot exist a treu-j sury for their payment, The utmost tioon; with which government cm endow it, is tie J enjoyment of that portion ol its own earning,! winch the public good c.a impure. Whcuov-1 er bounties are pretended k be bestowed onj lanor, by privileges to ienduj barons to de-j fend it, to bishops to save it, or to capitalists: or bankers to enrich it, to bishops an | anstocraticai order is Unavoidably erected to I pilfer and enslave it; because though majo rities cannot be enriched or ennobled by j bounties or piivilcges, minorities can; and these bounties or privileges must of' course settle, not against, but conformably with the laws of nature, both moral and physical. I he farce of legal favor or encouragement, has been so dexterously acted in England, to delude both the agricultural and mechanical interest, the interest ol labor, or the majority j ot tbe nation, as to have delivered this majo-! rit v, shackled by protecting duties, bounties j and prohibitions, into the bands of an incon-i si-leriibh monied aristocracy, or combination! ol capitalists. Into this net, woven of intri cate frauds and ideal credit, the majority of the nation, the interest of labor, the agricul t i ists and mechanics have run, afti r the baits held out by protecting dir. es, bounties and j prohibitions. From its and mis of wealth it is j awakened under the fetters of a monied aris- I tocracy, anil unfortunate as I'romethcu*, it is j destined to eternal anil bitter toil to feed this political liarpv, and to stifler excruciating an j guisli from its insatiable voraciousness. Sometimes this net lias been baited to catch i mechanics, at others to catch agriculturists, and perhaps it is but just, that these real brethren interests should fatten the alien tribe of stock-jobbers, as a punishment for manifesting a disposition to devour each other. We farmers and mechanics have been no litical slaves in all countries, because wo are political fools. We know how to convert a wilderness into a paradise, arid a forest into palaces and elegant furniture, but we have been taught by those whose object is to mo nopolize the sweets of life, which we sweat -for. that polities are without our province, and in us . ridiculous aftWcnuiou; for the pm-! pose of cciverting our ignorance into the screen of cgular advances, which arnfieia! interests mlegal factions, are forever making j in strait or zigzag lines, against t!io citadel of our rigiis and liberties. Sometimes after'! one of thes: marauding families have piling- <• j for a thousand years, we detect the client, rise in themajesty ofour strength, uiive away the thief,mdsink again intoa lethargy ofi.'i tcllect sogross, as to receive him u x da_v in anewuoat, as an accomplished and patri otic stratger, come to cover as with benefits. Thus wc got rid of tythes, and now we clasp banks, patronage and protecting duties,to our bosoms. Ten per centum upon labour was! paid tod priesthood, forming a body of men j which extended knowledge, and cultivate;; j good morals, as some compensation for form J mg also a legal faction, guided by the stunt 1 of encroachment upon the rights and proper ty of the majority. Forty per centum is now paid on our labor, to a legal faction guided bv th-.- same spirit, and pretending to no reli gion, to uo morality, to o patriotism, except to the religion, morality and patriotism oi making itself daily richer, which it says will enrich the nation, just as tiie self-same fae tiop has enriched England. The lega' fac tion of taiista, created by protecting du ties, bankers and contractors, far from being satisfied with tiie tvthe claimed by the obi la irarchy, will, in the case of the mechanics. soon appVopriate tiie whole of their labour to its use, beyond a bare subsistence; though in the case of farmers, it lias yet only gotten a bout four times as much of theirs, as was ex torted by the odious, oppressive and fraudu lent tvthe system. We know death very well when killing w\h one svtke,but mistake him for a deity, because he is killing with four. THE COMET.

Constitution. A Fable. —Every on-: is acquainted witi: tiie fable of tiie boys who were found in tiie app!e-tr. of an old man, stealing his apples. The first step to which the old man r- sorted, to bring tic plunderers down, was, to halloo at them. The rogues did not mind him; they thought!':- was too feebie to use force. He next resort-.::' to remonstrance; he told them how wrong it was, how unjust it was, to piun d r otic c p m-i : property. They then laugh ed it hun. i . that, soft words w not d< , ■ thr -■ ' ' n; whereu; on,tit r turn . op thert noses at him. He then ptfil ed up some bunches of grass, and began to pelt them, in the hopes that they wouldec-me down without compelling him to resort to harsher tneasur. s. They,then b gnu to abuse 'ma; - ~ finally, the old man, finding that not ii.i:. w .i-iid do, but tiie ultima ratio, took up ston s, and soon brought them to their senses, at the hazard of having their heads oi limbs broken. Precisely in this manner have the South ern States endeavored to get clear of the rogues who have so long been plundering tiieir property. They remonstrated with Congress,they appealed to reason audjustice, they threatened, they warned, they threw grass, but all in vain. They arc now begin ning to take up stones ; but, w hether th will be as suscessful as the old man, remains to be seen. Six months will determine it. m#•mnmfmQmexemimmEma Liber dity worthy of Imitation.

Are there not oilier native sons ot' N. Carolina who possess the same feeling, and who will imitate this praiseworthy example ? The fol lowing is an extract from his letter :—“Hav ing been raised in your State, and as conside rable of what of this world’s goods I possess, was raised there, I feel inclined to coutribut my mite to the furtherance of your benevo lent objects; therefore you may set me dow, down for vour Baptist Conventional objects Two Hundred Dollars, which 1 propose to, forward you in the winter or spring—inform me when it will he most needed.” H.

It is not only conside rably enlarged in size, but it is decidedly im proved in its tout ensemble.
