'calls fur inves- tijratioa and public unanimity therein. Ia the view we 4iave or the subject, the Teat causes of the tluctu t'um and instability in the condition of these classes' of productive industry are a unreflecting avidity for external sup plies, and a want of a department of mauutactunng inuusiry iu ncaic limm market. Resolved-Thzt in the estimation of this meetinsr, the, culture of the earth, as the source of supply, to all industry, has a strong claim to regard and, preeminence over every other kind of industry. And that manufacturing industry is a necessary productive power in it, actually. essential to advance jts welfare and respectability.

Resolved That it appears plain to this meeting, that a home demand for the raw materials we grow and the establishment of manufactures is not only beneficial to these classes of industry, but may be confided in as an increased stimulant to the industry of all the mechanics of our country, and an enlarge ment and improvement of their respect tive spheres of usefulness. And that having advanced to this point of independence these interests, as well as internal and foreign commerce regulate themselves. Resolved That in our opinion.sound wisdom dictates, and from a brief vev of the developement of our resour- ces anu capacuies in me late snon war, we are fully persuaded, the time' has arrivcdwh(nJheplM fafcturer beside the agricuiturist'lhe great moral and political desideratum. That in the period, alluded to, the demand and price of agricultural produce was encouraging to the, grower, and, that the same' number of. hands employed in manufactures, will have the same or greater Denenciai result on ihe farming interest.

It will further save us from the ruinous unfavourable balance of foreign trade, and the pernicious drain of spec'' Resolved It is decided senti-. ment of this meeting, tiiat the which court the head of husbandry, are proper and necessary objects of congressional and general protection; especially in so muqh as shall encourage those varieties of manufacture, which make for our own com-' fort, and which fabricated and refined, the raw material of our own country. Resolved -That we cannot view with unconcern the prediction of our citi- zens for foreign fabrics, in preference to the course we commend, when it is an uncontrovertible fact, that except in time of war, or providential famine, the American farmer cannot find a market for his abundant crops in any nation from which we derive a supply of man-ufactured goods of any description. The country requires a substitute a-dapted to the change of circumstances and which will redeem us from coloni al policy, Resolved, That our emancipation from vassalage to the evasive and unfriendly policy of foreign powers, whose inter ests lead them to keep us in the career of ruin, by decoying to imports and ex-vvhich exceed our exports to an alarming amount, is an object of first consideration. And that in our present condition no maxim is more.

I that the exchange of raw materials for manufactured articles, is nationally disastrous. 1 Resolved That we estimate the idea of opposition between the two interests of manufacture and agriculture, a mischievous political heresy, and that on the contrary, they are fellow workers in the same prosperity of the manufacture of coarse cotton fab-lies has demonstrated their identity of micicai wiiu me unci ui me uu. vuu there must be the same result in the matured state of any article which is manufactured at home from native raw materials. Resolved That in our opinion, a manufacturing population at home, does not injure foreign market for the surplus produce of the soil.
