If her prosperity uas alone ellVcted by foreign law or the tt:adequacy of our own protecting system: or if the interest of any of our siter stales were to be saciiiiced by what we believe to b.e the true national policy, it would he the duty of Ohio to sutler in silence until time produced a. change of legislation, worked a revolution in th ob jecUofindti-tiy. But iie feels that ihe United States have a common interest at stake, and that although a temporary em h.ii raiment may result from a great change in the national policy, the permanent effects will be more active, domestic commerce, that will wear down sectional asperities, a more steady homo market, and a more abundant aed cheaper 6upply of wants and a great accession of national

Politics of the dny. It is a subject of 1.0 little gratification to learn, from those sta es hitherto deemed deubtful. that the truth and the light begin to prevail against t!e prejudrces which have infected tla public mind, and the misrepresenlatiors which have influenced the public opinion. In no part of the country is this operalion going on so certainly as in ihe state of Pennsylvania. We have before us several letter frorn the interior and ccund parts of the State, which leave no reason to
doubt of the vote of that State bemj given
to Mr. Adams, for the Ptesinency, and to Mr. Ru?h for the Vice Presidency. Nat. Ii&lligencer
