Prm a late Lndon paprr. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, July 12, Orme AtUey, and four others. Thit au action to recover damage far an injury sustained by the plaintiff, In consequence of a combination entered into by the defendants, who are malt distillers aud rectifier to deprive tin nu situation Vaugham stated the rate for the blaiotnr. Thedefeodanttabody of affluent men. had thought fit to enter iuto a conspiracy to raise toe price of spirits.

1 bey assembled together for the purpose of raising the price of gin. Af ter some discussion they fixed it at 1 2s. per gal lon, and patsal a resolution, that any agent or servant who should tell under that price, should be discharged, by bis. employer. The plaintiff i nad been formerly distiller of respectabditv, but having failed in business, was obliged, for the jupport of his family, to enter into the more humble though not lest responsible situation ol agent for the house ot Langdale and Company.

Mr. LftDgdale fonn it necessary, while the' plain tiff wis iu bis service, deviate from the course enjoined by the authority of the committee of distillers and finding that it was answering his purpose to dispose cf his stock at a reduceJ price," authorised the plaint if to tell his gin at 2d gallop un Jul price. Mr, Langdale, being rectifier, was obliged to apply to the defendants for a supply of raw spirits but that body having ascertained that their resolution cured him that unlets he clismL.sed Mr. Orme, he must curry on his business without any aid upon their part, Mr. Langdale, who had the highest opinion of Mr.

Ortue's integrity and talent, from i which he had already reaped considerable ad' vanUge, remonstrated with the couincittee upon the cruelty of depriving a man with a large fa mily of the means of bread but the remonstrance produced no effect except geueral expressions of regret at the unavoidable consequences of the clerk's disobedience. In the end Mr. Langdale vas compelled to discharge the plaintiff, who was loser by tn.it event. ol about 1000 pounds a year. The plaintiffs receipts in one year for the bouse, amounted to ISO.OiK) pounds, aud he wat allowed Id.

per gallon commission upon the quantity cf spirits disposed of. For Uli injury the plaintifTiiow sought compensation iu damages. Marmanduke examined by Mr. 1 Sergeant Taddy, tai.1, that, in 188r he was a rectifier of spirits. Iu 1817, he had taken iuto hit service Mr.

Ornie, the plaintiff, who was ex tremely well acquainted with the business, to whom he gave a commit siori of Id. upon each gallon ho dixposed oT. The plaintiff's profits in two years amounted to 2,070 4s. Id. Mr.

Jiodges was a rectifier. Mr. Smith was an oi teotible rectifier he believed him also to be a malt distiller. Mr. Booth and Mr.

GaiUkell were also rectifiers. When witness took the plaintiff into hit bouse there was no spirit com j. ivu mm nc pieaseu. He received a paper from the Secretary, dated the uuioi jtrne, ioi, expressing the resolution of the committee that the trade thoulJ not sell giu at less than 1 Is. 6J.

a gallon. The paper also contained an amount of the penalties to which a vio lalioo of the resolution would be subject. One affected Uietlork or agent who should tell spirits at an under pripe, by directing his immediate dis 1 missal, la Dec. 1818. auother resolution directing that gin should not be sold under lit.

gallon after Lite 19th of that month, and that contracts entered into in contradiction of that rule should be erased. Inconsequence of this regulation he erased from his books, on the 21st of December, 70 pipes of gin. In the beginning of 1919, that trade was very slack, ho obliged to tka sales uuder price and in June, 1819, Mr. Orme, with hit consent, disposed of tome giii to a puLlicau named Wright, at 2d. a gallon under Uie established price, lie also a greed with (bur rectifiers to supply gin at 2J.

per gallon under the li. It was on the 1 1 tit of June he sold the spirits to Wright and at the end of July ha was summoned before the committee. Mr. 'Attley, one of the defendants, produced i note in his presence, and said thit Mr. Orme hal piid it to a Mr.

Wright in the coarse rfa tleahpgVto opposition to the rules of thecom anJ that Orme must be discharged. All the defendants were present. Witness begged a fortnight's delay, to come to amngeineon wilh Mr. Orme. Mr.

Saidh and Mr. Booth objected to this indulgence but the other five agreed tO Orme had six or Ms en thousand pounds to receive that week for him, wis an excellent character, and extremely couverraut in the bus, nets. Witness was thus compelled to part with r. Orme in cousequem of the threat tli at the malt distiller would no longer supply him with the raw material, lie watio the habit of dealing with Messrs. Attley, Leader, Rods brother of hi.

The ground on which Mr. Orm was ordered to be discharged was his money transactions wiih Mr. Wright. There were but live malt distillers in Londou lliore were about a hundred rectifiers. Cross examined by Mr.

Sergeant Lens. The mall distillers paid a Jut; to Government, an! old to the who ptid no duty. The malt distillers had, in geueral, excellent capitals, lie believe their capital was upward of a million. Tbe rectifiers had lest capital and re quired lets. Mr.

Smith, Mr. Booth, aud Mr. Hodges broke tlirough the established rule ou Uie lOth of December. Ooe said he coul 1' not go on becati there was not spirit enough aobllicr, because there was not water eumigh, siuce the resolution had been carried into effect. fclle understood it to be one of the resoluUons of Committee that he should not have spirits till bo discharged Mr.

Orme. The malt distillers raised the price as they pleased, without having any coinmunicatioo with others. There was less I profit bj the concern after the departure of Orme than during bis stay. The in olveucyof fh "tvinMt tin 1 1 Ivi tu.1 n.A.1.iAI I 1'iiiuuvm uj luu mods of underselling. Mr.

Orme made but two bad debts during the whole of the time. His re turn was above 240,000 gallons er annum, and the amount of Uie bad debts was 6i. Witness could afford to tell at the uuder price. for i r. ins uroucs were per gallon, ootWitUstau Jiug the state of reduction.

vw WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13. The Tariff Among the subjects Which will claim the serious alteution of Congress at the next session, the proposed tariff will be one o' the roost interesting. We bhve not engaged in the discussions, because there are writers enough who are both desirous aud able to do it ample justice and, indeed, a public print, the Patron of Industry, has been lately established in this city, for the purpose of advocating one side of the question. Pieces of extraordinary merit have been occasionally cominuiiicateJ or select ed on the. other, and published, accompauied with few or no remarks of our own.

A series of numbers have been begtro in the Boston Daily Advertiser, which are written with so much in diligence and good temper, and place the sub ject in to fair a view, stating its true merits in suc a spirit of candor and impartiality, that we cannot but think they will meet with the ready acceptance of all parties, Gen. John Adair, elected Governor, and William Barry, Lieutenant Governor, of the state of Kentucky, and entered upon the duties of their office on the 7th inst. The specimen of tciddlaria inclosed to me by the last mail from Coopcrstu wu, is that of the ge nuine plant. Extract of a letter. Sf.

THE TARIFF NO. 1. The merchants in various parts of the United stales, nave rcceutly begun to take touie mea surosin regard to this inportaut suljict, which win oe one ol in lira questions at Uie next session of Congress.

It would be a grave reproach to uiem uieir inactivity the lart year had been owing to ludillereocc. But this was not the case, they were aware of the extensive uiifchicf and ruin that would havo followed the adoption ol the proposed tariff; yet a conviction the consequences would be obvious, and a confidence in the wisdom ef Congress, made Uiem uu willing, as tbey have always shewu themscives rtlur. taut, to come forward in a bodv with cetitinni anu reinousirances, mat were said on this occasion to be the mure uuuecessarv. as their view and general opinions had beco fuily made kuowo to different members of Loth houses, bv the ivi vair Lvrrcsinmufrnie oi various indiviiluaU I Let it be here understood distinctly, that the wilh civilized world, and a profitable share meetings wnicn nave oeen lately held bv the 111 lne annually iuci eawg commerce, which the i I ti diffusion rii louveneu in opposition to mo maiiui.iciures, as such tiut to ojipose the new tariff which tome cf the latter have so rashly pnd blindly brought forward. The men.

hants were called upon not fur their own iuteresU mendy, biitsthe5e would be the firrt and im mediats sacrifice, they were naturally expected to proteit a niea ure which woul I involve rojnany classes ol the community in their distress. For, almost every mechanic in the seaport', and even some manufacturers, would be directly and speedily affected by the violent change intended. A part of them iudeed wnnbl very i oon bo reduced to stan ation. or to the dis couraging alternative of seeking some new kind oi employment lor wuich they are wholly unprc iurca. There is no enmity to manufactures in.

this community; it is absurd to suppose it. Every man naturally feels a ratisfartioa when he sees a new manufactory established He takes a pride in tho increase ol wealth, of i opuiauon, oi resources mat a solid we con ducted establishment devrloprs. This is a spontaneous, inevitable feeling, which every man's experience will tell him must be uuiversal A reflecting mind indeed may look forward with gloomy anticipating, to tile oatural progress of wucu uiey win present the same aspect that is now shewu in the great manufacturing cities of Europe a kind of population not very compauuie wun me sugnt restraint of our political institutions a population which is subject at intervals and sometimes very short ones, to all the miseries arising from want of emply, ami only kept from the most dreadful turbulence which their sufferings excite, by the presence ol a standiuj army. There the strikes at the education, the comfrtrt.the subsistence of man, and reduces the latter to its minimum it devours tim children by subjecting them when thf should be at school or at play, to tedious confinement, aud pressing at ouce on the adult with additional hours of labour, and inferior nua hty, if not quantity, of food, turnt lum out pre maturelyon tbe public in a slate of superannua tion and pauperism. That thi is no exaggera thqevilsola very advanced stage of uianufac tore, wliich cannot happen here for a ions? De ricni, anu wiiirn win oe a concern lor our pos tei ity Manufactures cannot produce Uie same evils here so long as our vast re: ions remain un peopled.

The patriot and phi autliropitt looks ai our rising manufactures with complacency, bccait as they are uudertakea from choice not necessity, and the Coaipc titiou is against the pn Ctt of aaopen trade, or the prcfitaole tillage of land held in lee by the cultivator, Uie gain must oe liberal to tempt people to engage in it'; theyniuslbe able to derive from mauul'acturir." employment an ample subsistence without ex" cessive toil, or they would not give up for it, other pursuits, where thit may be obtained such i the condition of our manufactures at present they must therefore be looked at with pleasure, and Uieir natural, regular srrowlli be considered by every one a subject of con 'rat In Uiis state of public feeling, it was a verv ill jiKigeii measure me ajvocatct ot manufac tures to consider Uieir interest au exclusive oue, and to attempt to sacrifice all others to its promotion. Though it may not estrance the will of all the other classes of the community, it nmv alarm them at the cousequences of a combination so unlocked Lr aud so thrca'emo" The origin of this conibiuation must have sprung from very laise ana anu tnortsighted iews. It has been said to have arisen from an expectation cf raising real estate from the depression it had ex penrnceu iu run a.leiptm, and to have been suggested by tome uatui allied citizen. A vast (Linger indeed, to have growu from so sml a cause, il this representation be tru That it should nBo oeen urst propped by foreign Uliaena teems not imprnbatiu, because it is xactly Uie snm ncni wniui mo various ualionsnf Kurone lia practised with tuch ruinous success asraiu I crb loiucr; a system which oppresses Knjlaui with corn laws, and bligh the vineyards of France which prevents interchange between provinces cm me same empire, and tiiruidies cvey towu with lijcal guards and tpies a sy tem in fiue. that diminishes the rights ol the people, cramps the pursuits uf aud thwarts the bountr of Pruvi Jcue.

But to return to a natural and sound state is attended With almost perable dilficultiet; when the tree has ling grown in an oblique direction, it is tlilficult if not impossible to make it assume its origiuul upright growth.

All Europe is seeking to get rid of the letters and obstructions uuintfcd during a bhrba rout era of legiilatiosi and shall We at this moment voluntarily atsuaie the evils from which they are struggling to evancipate the good seuse of the nation wiil pievei.t it. It would be doing great injustice to the manufacturers to suppose that tbey have all given a blind support In this inconsiderate measure of protecting manufacturers by a pruhiUtive tariff, an etigiue that would inevitably rectal on themselves. A large proportion nf them in this quarter at least joined the combination with indifference, if not uuwilliiigness they were satisfied wilh their own prospects, and were too intelligent calculators to confide uiuch iu any pursuit, which would not support itself without the aiJ of forc ing measures, that were exposed to the danger, nay, to tho certainty of being speedily repealed. Uut when a body of meu come forward as the avowed friends of any pat ticular class, every member cf that class is obliged to lendthrm thecouulcuaucc of hit name or be li able'to the charge of singular perrersoi.cn aud ingratitude. It is well knowu, however, that many of lhcue persons who have the largest stake in manufactures in have never been anxious for the passage of the Tariil bill, and are now decidedly averso to it, since they find how deeply the public feeling Unarmed on flic subject.

To these will be added many others, who wu hed the Tariff to have passed when they thought a large majority of the nation was in faror of it yet now finding that this majority is against them, have too uiucli magnanimity as well as too much discretion, to wish lor tbe passage of a bill tnal will be too irritating in its consequences to Lave a lasting exist ence, aud without which, even its most sanguine advocates, would look uioo it at only produc live oi new misciuci to tutir concerns. It is not with the expectation nf savin? anv thing new, much less of considering the variou Hearings mat a prohibitive tariff would have ou the welfare pf the United ates, that induces mo to write; but as a decided expression of public sentiment will be necessary to prevent this measure from being i arried at the next sessiou of congress, shall offer a few thort papers ou which may perhaps lead your readers to meditate upon it, and to derive from their own reflections a conviction of the evils it would create THE TARIFF NO. 2. It has been the hard and strange fortune of the commercial interest to be suljcct alternately to the euruity of the agricultural and manufacture nig classes, while its nourishment is derived from supjiorliug them Atone time the former urged its sacrihYo by the dignified cxnedicot ol yielding to the usurpations of ioreign belligerent, husbanding our resources to extinguish Uiem and by adoLting the wise policy of the Chinese, sub side into their slMe of nou iutercourse and barbarism. The false policv of tllf present, maim.

facturing scheme, leads a renewal of this ah. surd and antuocu condition. It would 20 far to exclude us irons all the benefits of iutcrur of intclligcncr, aud frecdonf! iscrcatmg octweeu thedifleient natioutofthc earth. Nothing can be more unfounded than the belief that the interests of the mercantle class, in any extensive community are distinct oropposed to the prosperity of agriculture and manufactures. The former are most closely connected with the latter, aud only form the meant ol sun.

plying their wants or transporting Uieir products. The mechanic and manufacturer make the wag. on and its covering, the harness and some of their fabrics to the load which 4s supplied by agriculture, while commerce furnishae the team that draws it to market. The surplus gains orcnni merce are every year invested by tens of thousands iu agriculture aud and all the developments which the lalierhave received have been chiefly owing the vigour and enter prise of the former. A free trade is essential to the healthy and thriving condition of both the others, and if the projectors of the Tariff could succeed in their short sighted undertaking and arrest our commerce, they woul I soon find that tney nad stopped Uie great water wheel, which puts in motion all their hammers, looms and jen uies.

No person who knows the state of this nart of uie couoirv, will ever accuse the merchant! of hostility to manufactures. Many of Uiem are at Ihit moment shareholders in a variety of manu. facturing enterprises they have always shewn themselves ready to engage iu every experiment of the kind, and at this moment some of the most flourishing establishments in Uie country, tire chiefly carried ou by mere hauls. Yet combination of men has arisen in the middle and western states to treat these merchants us euo mies, to cut off the means by which they live, and by ooetudden, violent enactment, destroy lhat commerce winch lias not onlv enriched in. diviJuals, but fertilized evcrv uorluui of Hip union.

Now tuppose the merchant, instead of thus joining iu lne promotion pt manufactures, had 'jeiiieuaptau lor sacrificing Uiem to enlarge the spnere ol their own pursuits; doubtless a vio. lion is demonstrated by the present state of ie'" outcry would havo at o.ite beeu raised, England, as it is been by every manufacturing though they would not have caused so much in country of Europe iu its turn. But those are' as would now be produced, il the plan for destroying commerce should be came into operation. With such a project in view thev have urged upon the nation the exoediencv ol obtaining a widei4 market lor the production of our soil, by procuring a Ireer admittance for them iuto the markets of Europe, offering as an equi valent a more exten ive consumption of their fabrics They might have taid our manufactur i ig establishment! are yctin their infancy, our uncultivated lands are very extensive and tbe sod ol Uiem fertile. Let ui form commercial treaties with the great European nations by which our present rate of duties shall be rather lessened, with astipulation that they shall not be tucreascd for a certain period of time.

We cati say to them we will take gcealer quantity of tur, provided you wiil admit the raw products of our agriculture without restriction. Our rice and our flour shall be admitted at low duties into your ports and we will receive your hardware, your cotlousaud your woollens. such an arrangement will be productive of ureal mutual Deutul, aud tho intercourse between our respective countries prodigiously increased. r.uglana, now cnioarassed wdli her corn would perhaps be willing to give up these restrictions which prefs so heavily on her sul jects, oa Uie condition i.f securing a greater vent for her fabrics iu which she has suCh a prodigious capital invested. To obtain a certain market lor the accumulated produc lams ol her workshops, the might be induced to get rid iifthe erilsof her com laws, she might remove all attempts to introduce the cottons of India, and give our graio and our cotton peculiar privileges, while such a liberal agreement would extend the urosDe ritv of both uitions, and produce a vast increase ol lucrative commerce bclweeu them.

Sue would be at once relieved from the evils of a surplus of manufactured products, her laborert would be reru)vered from a state of pauperism and our agriculture would create Or our landholders every mm mtbe country ma beooi.ir ooe ol these; an immense acresatioo of wealth. Our cotton in having a preference, would meet wilh a large mat and our grain rop: re uear ly cloxbled in value. Ictrad of flour being tbea at four dollars or two tend a hall it now it in tiie western it would be immediately bled is price, and wo should ve a deiuHn.l tome millions of Uirreir. would be iny igorated by tlis exchange of then commodi ties, and our tailors, auU mechanics receive full employ aud high wages. 1 do not say that such an arrangement woukl be public or advantage ous, but it would deserve botli these quahlu a lions in a much greater tit gree, than tho olject of the proposed tariff.

It is a most erroneous and barbarous system that would narrow the intercourse and exchange between nations anu make each seek 4o produce every thing within itself, without relertnce to climate and other circumstances. If the custom bouses of the world were wholly abolished, and the revenues now derived from thorn levied in other methods, thus leaving a perfect freedom of exchange for the ua tional and artificial production of every naliou, there can be no doubt though a great deal of temporary confusion and partial distress might arise from the sudden removal 01" old rest: ictious and monopolies, yet the ultimate consequences woul I be most universally beaelcctiL Ifihii si heme for increasing di commerce and en baiicmg the agricultural produce, Imd lieeii serious jr individuals hud formed thejo selves into societies, and seut their deuutatuMis, to kinifofgeneialtajugrtst called themselves a Na tional Njciely" and tiuated oftheir exclusive patriot' 11 111 llit iiiaiiufai'UliVrs would have prutitblv lanuh ed the stuiiiplion, and cautioned lite public aanut briiii; delihledliy iMines.

Each new Governor has been allowed to sit iu judg ment on the conduct of his predecessor aud, at they Knew that their administration could not be of very long duration, their views were directed more to tbe aggrandizement of their fortunes than the welfare of ihe people they were sent to govern It is seldom, also, that the ecclesiastical and mi litary authorities are on terms of perfect amity The inhabitants of Manilla, being composed of Spaniards, Mestizos, Chinese and Indians, so opposite and jarring are the interests of these vari ous classes, that even il the government was on a much more equitable loting than it is, it would be no easy task to administer its affairs in such a manner as lo give satisfaction to all. Tbe ol5 ces of the state are filled by Spaniards but few of them are merchants. The Mestizos are the principal landholder, aud conduct the greater part ol the commercial business. The Chinese carry on the trade with their owo country, and are the best mechanics. They are the most ui eful, and at the same time the most dangerous, people iu Manilla they have often excited which have only been suppressed by great expense of both mouey aud blood.

The Indians are iu general worthless and lazy, aud work Only to prevent starvation. They are much addicted to gambling, particularly cock fighting, of which the revenue alone amounts annually to But, distmct from all these, and iudeed from the vholo human race, is a class of men whom 1 have yet ro mention. Thy are the, negroes, who are said to have been the primitive inhabitants of l.ucouia, who. being driven from the phius and sea caM, took retuge in the most mountainous parts of the island, where they now dwell. They seem to have declared eternal enmity to all mankind, and their hatred of Indians in particular, is of the most implacable nature.

If one of them is so unlnrtunate as tiflall into the hands of the negroes, his chance of life is hopeless.
