If 5'tmc of our self wi-e deungngiK s wero to road more, and learn something of British policy, and t lk less UKtil they have acquired that knowledge, they would show more wisdom than they ai present exhibit. Further, cur Locofoco Janus. faced demagogues, savs, "by Free Trade, the Farrier, Mechanic, and all others, will be able t buy every article they desire, a vast deal cheaper than they C3U now." We have heard it e 3 i J , that a man by often telling an untruth, will in alittle while come to believe it himself, and this is the only way in which we can account for any person, w ho has tho least knowledge of the law s that govern trad can come o btheve an assertion of this kin 1. Wieoe '.here is competition in anv business, that vefv competition must lessen the pri. e to the consumer, of the arliele con-umed. Under the present Tariff, ivc are not only competitors among our stives, but with all the world; and as lowon low nod t :eer can supply an article mu ;t another, or stop business.

Thrv a re well aware, that with their half-fed. irdf paid population, they can in a very few years, break down ev"rv mannf- eturing es'ablishment, of whatsoever kind, in the United States, and thus destroy all competition. What think you will bo the result of such state of thines? Why simply this, they will, in that event put their imparts up to any price they choose, and we will be compelled to buy upon their own terms; and we will be unable to help ourselves. Hy our British policy then, we, will have destroyed our owe, industrial enterprise, and thus bind ourselves honelessly to her lestructive mcasnres. An I how think iyou will we te ante to pay toe oalauee t it. t ii of Trade which will be n-rainst us, te the tune of some one hundred niWiom? Will she take i: in produce?

It is for such eorwimat id !v, as advocates r ree Trade uoctrtnt o answer that question: a mill with anv pretentions to a knowl edge ol political economy, would be en lirely at fault. But we have run out these remarks much farther than wo intended at the commencement; and will now give the letter referred to, in the beginning written as it is by a gentleman, whose character, is out of the reach of Locofoco detraction, in order to show whether Protection makes the manufacturer richer by being protected, than it does the importer, under a Free Trade system. It will be seen that, Fit-e Trade, jo much h-rpel upon by our opponents, docs the verv tiling ie facto, thatthev snv a protective policy wifl do.

Our neighbor, the Sun, of the 28th inst. contains, what purports, to be a vindieatlon of o.d Ezekial Polk. It nearly takes up all the papr, and was first published in the Nashville Union, by order of the Locofoco Central Committee cf Tennessee, an 1 of course, with the appro bation, and at the desire of Ja nes K. Polk himself. It distinctly and expr ssy rdrnits. that iik did go into, the British (liiiPii and take the iro!eeti..n of B 'rd Co: :i wad lis and live for a on: sidereb.o tun tbnt nrotaetioii.

A- a condition of protection from Com wall is, he had to renounce and did renounce his alleciance to the American cause; and is it preended that a wish to save his property u as a sufficient reason, or even the shad.-. of an apology, for thus turning traitor to Ids country in the day of her deadliest perils? "This publication of the Locofoco central committee yields the whole point in controversy. Old Polk was a tory of the Revolution, and every man. who votes for young P Ik, will vote for a tery's grandson. Wo would as soon vote for ttip .rrrndsnn of Honediet Arnold or the grand sons of any of the rest cf the old traitors who ought to have been hung like dogs or of theolJ traitors who were hung like dog". Toryism is transmute 1 in the blood from father to son a much as th& kind's evil or the pulmonary maladies. Since, tne preceding was in type, w-s have examined Stedman'-s hi.storv of the American war to ascertain precisely and authoritatively what was meant by the "protection"1 taken by certain citizens of North and South Carolina from Lord Cornwaliis during the Revolutionary war. "Protection" was not, as the Tennessee central committee would have the public suppose; a mere parole. A citizen, to entitle himself to "protection," had io take the oath of allegiance to great Britain; and his "protection" was neither more nor less that a British ccrtifica'e, that he car ried in his pocket, of the fact of his having taken that oath. SteJin.ni does not give the form f the oath, but the substance of it and probably the words may be given thus: I, Uzeki. i Polk, of the .State cf North Carolina, l.ertby make oath, on the Holy UviincoiUts of Alrniuhiv Cod, that I will adhere t- the cause of mv lawfri!
