To thc Chairman of the Central Commil tccof the Vt. Tempcrance socicly: Stn, since my last report of the 3d inst, I Iiave visited Bristol, New Haven Weybridge, Addison, (East aud West,) Bridport, Shore ham (Centre and Rich's Mills,) Whiting, Leicester, Salisbury, Cornivall aud Lincoln. In this list is einbraccd almost as grcat a variety of condilious in tlie matter of tlie Temperance cause, as the state would fur nish. But I cannot dojustice to the scvcral towns if I undertake to descrihe the coudition of each, without going into details too ex tensive forthis report, and therefore I prcs ent ouly thciractioii upon the subjcct of li censes. Oue distinct errand in all my past visits in this aud othcr counties, has bcen to draw nttcntion to this question. Petitions have bcen circulatcd at Icast in 21 towns of the couuty, prayitig tlie court to refuse all applications for the licensing the sale of in loxicatiug drinks, and with the follouiug rc- sults: The first coluinn of figurcs exprcssing the numbcr of freemen, and the second, offe malcs over 13 ycars cif age, wbo signcd these petitions.

Omitting in the estim ate, the the town of Salisbury, where almost no cffort was made, this resultgives us a ma jority of all the freemen of the towns, from which returns have been received. But in some towns, doubtless, names were collccted, which were not returned, and in other towns the business was very imperfectly done. In tach loxcn. in the first cataloeue, with two or threc exceptions, a considerable niajority of ircemen raigut hare bcen obtained. At the meeting of the several boards of civ ll authority, votes in favor of licenses were obtaiued from majoritics of members, in only four towns, viz: Bridport, Hancock, Lincoln and Ripton. Atthe session of the court, 15 applications were made for tavern licenses from 11 towns. 2 applications for rctailer's licenses, viz: from Bridpoit and Middlebury, and 4 applications from as many towns for li cense to sellfor medicinal purposes only. All these applicants must wait fora chan'-e to come over the afTairs of the country, cre they can make drunkards according to law, protecting themselves, in their work ofdeath bchind the authority of the State of Vermont. Before closing this communication, it may be doing the drinking part of the community good service, to warn them, through you, sir, to beware how they purcbase imported spints, so called, during the yearto comc. A tew years ago, the quantity annually im ported amounted to more than five millions dollars. But taking the actual importations fornine months, coramencing Oct. 1, 1842, as theaverage for the wbole year. the impor 'mponations of 1843 amount only to $8GS J02. This is taken from congressionai doc umen,9 These "actual importations" con of ,1,91'532 Sallo"s Bn.ndy, and 394-w-3 gallons of other spirits. This of course nili prove, comparatively.a veryshortsupply, unless thenumber of drinkers have diminish ed more than our opponenu admit. Teu VOL. IX. years ago, this quintity would scarccly sup- ply a single state. Ihe conclusion then be comes unavoidable, that a very large propor- tton ot what is sold as imported spirits must be "ductored" in our owu country. This is especially ccrtaiu when we are assured that for many years before, this business has been very extensivcly carried on.

Per cciving him to bc awake, she inquired in a voice of cxquisite mclody, if he wanted any thing. Instead of auswering the question, the sick man whom J shall call Hartland, though that was uot his real name, asked two or three others, iu a low, feeble tone. "Where am I and who are you!" "You are in St. aud I am poor Ge nevieve, your sen'ant can I do anythiug for you sir.'" O, a nurse they have providcd for me, I supposc, thougbt Hartland.

Jstill bis soul could not resist the sacrcd impulse of gratitude, and he promised before his Ma kerthat, whetherhe lived ordied, be would make ber ample amends. Atlength he became convalescent, aud, in proportiun as he recovered. Genevive cradu- ally relaxed in her attendance, which was now ,V supphed by a male servant. Hartland was a little hurt at this, and indeed seriously missed the soft voice, and gentle, compassionatclook 01 uenevieve. "i suppose hermonth is up," thougbt he in a pet, "and sbe is waiting to be engaged for another." Still Genevieve came sometimes, ihough not so often as before; ic Hartland being now recovering from a state of almost infant helplessness, began to study her a little more attentively. There was some thing about her that puzzled him. Though dressed like a waiting maid, hcr appearance and demcanor did not seem to belong to that MIDDLEBURY, class, and in the conversations he had with her, hc discovercd a well cultivated mind, stored with that polite information becoming in a well-bred woman. Everythiug sbe said or did exhibited a quiet ladv-Iike simplicity I and decorum. There was also something in her deportment toward him so difTereut from that which unusuallyexistsbetween thenurse and the patieut, that Hartland half thc time, did not know how to' behave himself. He sotnetimes insisted on her bemg seated, nut she always decliued with a look of humility j that sunk into his hcart. At first he was, puzzled, next interested, and finally there stole into his heart one of the softest of all possible feelings for Genevieve, compounded of full grown gratitude and new-born love. One day, while the doctor was with bim, itsuddenlv occurred to Hartland to mquire where he was, how he came there, and rnost esnecially, to whose kindness be was iudebt j ed forsucb henevolent iuteutions. hinting at the same time that he presumed it was the doctor wbo bad ioterposed iu his bchalf. "You are mistakeu," replied his frieud; i knew nothiug of your situation tilll found you liere. "Indeed! and how came I here?" "T will fpll T-nn fnrvnn mlrht to know. in j j -a I order to return thanks in the propcr place.

The doctor then rose to depart when Hart land.with a degree ofhesitation which supris cd himself, and the color rising in his pale cbeek, asked "But doctor, now I think ofit. who is the gentle kind attcntive nurse, to whom, I verily bclievc meaning no rcficctiou on your skill I am indebted for my recovery.

"She is paid for her attendance," replied thft doctor, earnestly, "and will accept of nothing from you, except what you will not pcrbaps be willing to bestow ou her." "What do vou mean bv that, doctor? Nothing," answcred he, as he departed with another significant smilp Hartland fell into a reverie. The words, 'she ispaid for her attendance," cratedharsh- ly on his ears.

Feb. 12, 1633, in accordance with no ticc, Mr. Clay brought in the bill com monly called the Compromise Act. Senate Journal, page 171. On this oecasion Mr. Clay said In presenting thc modification of the (ariff laws, which I am about now to sub. mit, I have two great objects in view. My first object looks to tbo tariff. I am compclled to express tho opinion, formed after the most deliberate reflection, and on full survey of tho wholo country, that whether rigbtfully or wroflgfully, the tar iff stands in immincnt danger. If it should be prcserved during this session, it must fall at the next session. By what circumstances, and through what causes, has arisen the nccessity of this chango in the policy of our country, I will not pretend now to elucidato. Others there are who may differ from the impressions which my mind has received upon this point. Owing, however, to a variety of concurrent causes, the tariff, as it now exists, is in imminent danger, and if tbe system can be preserved beyond tho next session, it must bo by somo mcans not now within tho reach of humin sagacity. Thc fall of that policy, sir, would bo pro. fiiic fivr rnn:(niiiirpq rnlamntnna in. deed. When I look at the variety of interosts which aro involved, to the num- ber of indinduals interested, tho amount of capital invested. the valeo of buildings crcctcd, and the wholo arrangenicut of the business for the prosecution oftho vanous branches of tho manufacturing art which havo snrunff up under the fos- tering care ofthis govcrnment, I cannot contemplatc atiy avil equnl to the sudden overthrow of all those interests. History can prodtico no parallel to tho extcnt of the mischief which would be produccd by such a disaster. The repcal of Ibe edict of Nantes itself was nothing in com parison with it. Thnt condemncd toex. ile and brought to ruin a great numberof persons. Tho most rcspcctable portion of llio population of France was condemncd to exile and ruin by. that measure. But iu my opinion, sir, tho sudden repcal of tho larifT policy would bring ruin and destruction upos thc wholc peoplo ofthis country. There is no evil, in my opin ion, equal to tho consequenccs which would result from sucha calastrophe.-ilr. Clay's Speech. Feb. 12, 1833.

Now, on turning to the Senate, wc find the facts as follows Feb. 26, 1833. tho Compromiso bill was received from the House, and Mr. Clay's Senate bill for tho samo object was laid on tho table. Senate Journal, papes 212, 213. March 1, 1833, tbo fcenato concurrcd in passing the Compromise bill from the House, aycs 29, noes, 16. In conclusion wc can do no less than rcpcat our thanks to tho Patriot for stir ring us up togive the facts in this matter. Tbe rcsults arc thcsc it is in proof that the insinuattons of tbc Patriot are utterly false; that JAMES K. POLK united with the Locofoco Committeo of Ways and Means in rcporting a bill to sweep away the protectivo svstem, and with it to cover the land with bankroptcy, on barely two years nolice that he sup ported the bill in a speech, in which he said that WOOL SHOULD BE ADMIT TED DUTY FREE; that he voted against tho amendment to improve thc provision on wool that while be was talking and voting against protecting tho NUMBER 9. I wool-erowers and laborurs. he VOteu 'O- TAX them for cvery drop oflea orcofTee. they drank that he sustained this abom- tnablo bill until the Scnate showed (03- its voto on Mr. Clay's proposition) that it could never passthat body, and then. as an alternativo betwecn tho then exis ting Tariff and tho Compromrse, ho vo- ted for the latler. As to Mr. L-LiAl, tl is in proof that he was drhen to the eom. promise by tho course of POLK AND THE LOCOFOCO PARTY; and that betook not a single step, until it was ren dered nbsolutcly necessnry to save tho Tariff from nttcr deslruclion, and the country from civil war. Clay was then tho fricnd of Protection Polk was its enemy Clay then proposed, as a com promise, a modcrato reduction ofdutics, tocndinnimc years with 20 pcr ccnt. and to this ho proposed to add, in 1842. the hoinc vnlualion and cash dutics, which is cqual to 10 pcr ccnt., and thc amount of protection after 1842 would thus havo been 30 per ccnt Polk urgcd a reduction to 15 pcr ccnt. in ttco years I and insisted upon it until Mr. Clay's suc cess in tho Scnate compclled him to succumb. Their relative positions are still the same as in 1833. MR. POLK'S VICWS NOW. Mr. Polk insists that Ihe prcscnt Tanfl" 13 a violation uf thc Compromise, and I must be REDUCED TO TU'ENTY PEa CENT., cr MORE THAN ONE HALF! Fornroof- IIo took other viows, briefly prcsentcd, ofthc subjcct, and procced to tho discuss ionofthe protectivo Tnriff Act passcd by the last Congress. Hc showed that it was a highlv protective Tariff, and not nnn fnr rnvpnnn. Ho showcu that bv tho .Compromiso Tariff Actofl833, tho tax ,-.1 .i:-i 1 on I "M "Zmo ccni. upon 11a uiu- imer i iu uvm i JunCi i842. No highcr tax than 30 pcr CPnt. was imposcd.on any article ufter thc 30ln 0f Junc, 1812, until tho 30lh of August, 1842. on which lattcr day tho present Tariff Law was passed by llc Whig Congress, Tho tt'hig Congress laid violcnt hands on the compromise act of 1833. and brokc it up. Ho was opposcd to diiect taxes, and to prohibitory and protectivo dutirs, and in favor of such moderate duties as would not cut off importations. IN OTHEIl WORDS, I1E WAS IN FAVOR OF REDUC1NG THE DE ITES TO TI1K RATES OF THE COMPROMISE ACT, WHERE THE WHIG CON GRESS FOUND THEM ONTHE 30th OF JUNE, 1842. Polk's Speech at Jackson Tenn, April 3, 1843. MR. CLAY'S VIEWS NOW. Mr. Clay insists now, as hc did in 16- 33, that tbo Compromise did not Iimit Congress to a 20 per cent. rato after 18- 42 declares that any other rale of duty mav bo made, consislent wilh nn cconc- mical revcnuc that discriminalion in fa vor ofdomcslic indusfry may bo made; that hc is in favor of tho prcscnt tnriff, and of remcdying all dcfccts by supplc- montal Icgislation in short, that bo is in favor of a system of PROTECTION, modeiale, reasonable, eertam,and durable. Wo quoto from Mr. Clay I conlcnd, therefore, with cntirc confi dcnce, that it is pcrfectlv consistcnt wilh the provisions of the Compromiso Act to imposo dulics to ANY AMOUNT what ever, 30, 40, or moro pcr ccnt., subjcct to thc single conditirn oftho Government. Speech in the Senate, March 1, 1842, Also speech in the Senate, Feb. 12 1833. I think tho present tariff in the main is right, and working much good. There may be excuses or dcfects in it, of whieli I have not here thc mcans to judgc and if there bo, tliey nulit to be correclcrf by supplemcntal lesislation. Lelter lo Mr. Merritcether, of Georgia, 1843. Ho had ever bcen in favor of tbc pro tective system to a certain cxtcut. To preservc at once tho pcacc and tho crcat interests of thc country, he had becnac tivn in L-ffccting thu Compromiso of 1833, Mr. Clay dcnied that thc principlo of the compromise requircd the maximum rato of duty tobetixedat 20 per cent. Ils true principlo was that no moro rev. enue should bc raised thaii was nrccssary for an honcst and cconomical admimstra tion oftho Government, and within that limit there M1GHT be discriminalion IN FAVOR OF DOMESTIC INDUS TRY. Mr. Clay concluded this branch of his subject by declaring himself IN FAVOR Or A 0Y0T 1SM Or PKO IMSCTIUiN, moderatc, reasonable, certain, nnd dura blc. Speech at Charleston, S. C., April, 1844. We havo thus disposed of the miscrable reprcsentation of the Patriot, quotcd at tho head ofthis article, as well as ofthc weak Locofoco lie that Mr. Clay has abandoued tho doctrinc of Protection, Iftho Patriot isreally ignoranl, the facts are here eivcn from the official documcnts, and it can avai! itself of our refercnccs lo verify tbcm, and then disabuse its rcaders; butif it has desxgnedty misrepresented Mr. Clay, that paper will never publiah these facts.

This is one of the great qucslions to be dc cided in the coming contest. Mr. Bt-ntou said iu his speech in tbe Senate in Marrli Inst, "that the TarifTwns the question wliirh was to be decided by the people iu ihe choicc of l'residont." So far as this single issue is con ccrncd thcrc can be no dodgiug it. Mr. Pulk is anti-tariu. ilis ilocrrire upon this issue tbe Charleston Mercury says "is SoOTIIERX TO THE BACK EOSE." Polk is supported as nn anti-tarili"man by Senator Allen, of Ohio, who on the 31st o'f May introduced a resolutiou iu thc lT. S. Scnate declaring, tbat "the dutics imjiostd by existing lavs on importations arc unjuat and ought to be reduetd. Polk is supported as an anti-tarifT man I y the eigbtccn Locofoco Senators wbo voted for the above resolntiou, and is oppnscd as au anti-tarifi man by the twcnty-three Whig Sen ators, wbo voted agaiust tbc abote rcsolu tion. Polk is supported as au anti-tarifl mau by S. Wnght of tbis Statc.who voted to dcclare the very bill hc voted to pass, as unjust and that thc dutics under it oucht to bc reduccd. Polk is supported by tbose whn sustained the Black Tariirilill of Mr. McKay, to de struy protection and to sacrifice tbe frce labor of tbe North to tbc cupidity of Ihe Slavc-dri-ving aristocracy ofthc Sunth, for tbe sake of keeping this frec trade faction in good humor and sccuring its votes fur this Locofoco candi date for thc Presidency. He is supported for the Presidency by tbe Locofoco committec wbo ailoptcd this Black Tariff Bill. He is supported for thc Presidency by Mr. McKay, wbo reporled this bill to thc House. He is supported for thc Presidency by thc 103 Loco Focos, nbose votes brought thii bill brforc the House for action.

As long lines of wbigs approachcd they were wclcomcd by the cheers of the thousauiU al- j ready asscmhlcd, proclaiming their etroug de- terinination to do their wholc duty in their country's causc. The grand processiou which was fonncd of 8 abreast was at lcast two milcs in lenglh. With the aid of scveral bauds of niusic from diflereut sections of the State, the processiou marched from the Court Uousc square to College 6treet, thence thro' Collegc etreet, down Pcarl street to thel'ark "hich could hardly conMin the ihrongin; masses.

"A discriminaling Tarifffurrtvenue jiurjioscs only" as says Mr. Van Buren, and so says Mr. Wright. "Evcry duty is a protectivo, as contrad-stinguishcd Irom a revcnue duty, wbca its prohibitory hecome paramount to its revenue powers. Kaise the duty upon tbe given article above tbe higbcst revenue rate assumcd under the Iast head, and tbe im portations of tbe article will be either whollv probibited, or so greatly diniiuisbcd, that the nmount ofreveuue dcrived will be less, thougb the rate of duty paul is greater. If tbe pro hibition be pcrfect, there will he uo revcnue. In either of these cascs, the protectiou to the domcstic article is greater than bcfore sup posed; but it is obtained at tbe sacrifice of reveuua, not as incidcntal to it. The prohib itory have bccome paramount to the revenue powers ol the duty. The positious are re versed aud the revenue derived. if any, has hecome a merc incidcnt to the protection af forded. This is making protectiou thc priu cipal, and revenuo the incidcnt. It is cxcrci sing the power which the constitution has giv en to Congress, "to Iay and collect taxes, dutjcs.iuiposts and exciscs." not to put mon cy into the public treasury, but to probibit lmports, aud diminish the revenue for thc sake of the protection aflbrded.

Tbe incidcntal protectiou anorded, by such a sysieui, to one intcrcst. and the in cideutal burdcn tbrown upon auotber, would fonn nojusl subject of couiplainlto either. The tax would be neccssary for tbe support of the government, and all would concede the justice aud wistiom ol so uislriuutmg me iax- atiou, as to uiake it tne least ourueusouic iu all, as one cntire wbolc.

The prcseut tarifflaw was approved by the I'rcsideiit on tbe 30th of August, 1842: so that tbe year above given is the first and ouly one iu which its practical opcraticn upon tbe trade of the country can be tcstrd by the re turns.

In rclation to wool Mr. Wriglit is for redu cing tbe tariif to thirty per ceut. for fear the wool growcrs will be so mucb stimulated in .1 i,: r .i i- 1" l i i i c i i the market. This frce trade Statesman did not stop to considcr that it would bc quitc as well when it como to that point to have the market gluttcd by homc compctition as by the importations offoreign wool, which must result in a double depressiou of pricc. Ilotv will the fartners like this idea of Mr. Wright when uuder the prescnt tarifT wool has risea from 31 to 40 cculs duriug the year, and huy ersare at thcir doors to purchase tbeirwool for cash. Such are tbe practical results of protection. Should the prcseut tarifl" contiu ue, the prescnt priccs will coutinue forycars, but down with the tarifT to Silas Wright's staudard and in a short timc foreign importa tions will reduce it to 34. IIc was willing to extcnd to tbe American wool-grower such fair and rcasouablc pro tection as our necessities for revcnue would warrant say 30 per cent.; aud was not that reasonablc protection to our farmers, who cboosc the busincss of wool-growing Was not $30 iu every $100 a reasouable advantnse comparcd witb those engagedin other brauch esof farming, who could uot be protectcd at all Was it not as high a tax for their bene fit as thc public would be contcnted to bcar? Was it not as strong encouragement as tbe busincss would warrant, without inviting so many to it as to overstock our markets, and rcndcrthe protection uselss? forall would see that, when they should bc corapelled to seek au export market, our duty would uot aid them. He was compelled to sav he thought this degree of protection would bct tcr promote the interests of our wool-growers than a bigher, or more prohibitory duty; be cause it would he stable, the revenue bcing necessary; and because, admitting a moder ate foreign compctition atthe great disadvan tage of S30 in the S100, it wonld cot invite tbat flood of domestic competition, which 1 perfect prohibition would be almost ccrtain to bring upon tbcm, and the conscqucnt ex treme lluctuation which ovcr compctition never fails to produce. He helieved our wool growers would be sntiafied witb this degree of protectiou, ifthe taxes upon tbe articles they were corapelled to ptirchase and consumc were proportionatcly reduced.

HOUGH many medicines 'ia ebccn before tbc public for a mu' h lonsur period than Wrighl's Jndian Vi jetable Pills, yet none stands now in hig' et repute, orhas more lapidly attaincd a n hold upon popular eslimntion. Tlie 1 ut jsands that have used them throughout thc length and breadlh of ihe rcpublic, all bear cheer ful testimony to iheir thorovgh ejjicacy and mild operation when employed in the most distrcasing disorders 'which flest is heir to." The theory of disease on which Wrigli'.'s Indian Vegetable Pills are iounded -is this, vizr that there is only one ptimary cause, of all ihc disorders that afilict the human family, nnd tbat is corrupt humors; or. iu other words impurity of Blood. This principle is now so generally admitted that it may in fact be said to bc sustained by an univcisality of opinion, the few disspn. lcrs constiiuting but a very feeb'e minori'.y. It is useless, tbcrefore.to discuss the sound' ness of this theory in this placc and con- nexion. The one disease principle being udinit- ted, tho mode of attack prufcssed by all practilioncrs bccomes ihc same namely ptjbgation. But muny of tlie so.callcd spe cifics nuiv before the public, produce only one form of purgntion: they are either &u- dorific, cathartic, Diuets or expectorant. Wnghfs Indian Vegetable Pills combina all theso properties. fc aro therefore calcu lated to attack thee lcments of disease at a'l points, and by a harmonious and combined iperat on lo e.xpol it rad'cally from ihe sys ein. Their cfK'ct is nlmost mngical, and is no Icss nstonisbing for its mild-ies than its cfficacy. Boih sexes. and all ages mny t-r.phy them, according to the directions, uilbout fear, for wbilti tbey are certain to rurc nll ili.-ensos th.it are remediable, tbey never inflict an injury upon ihe vstrin The perfecl safety of tbe medicine is an otberall important quality, and one wbich has contriliuted more than anything else to its extension and popularity. In n word, this medicine cnmmends itself strongly to the patronage of ihe pub!ir,and its use bids fair to bccome before long, al most universal. CAUTION. The citizens of New England are res pectfully informed that in conscqticnce of tbegrcat populurity which Wright's Indian yegetablo Pills have carned by their aston ishing goodness, a gang of ountcrfeiters are now industriously engaged in palming on tho unsttspccting, a valueless nnd per hips dnngerous medicine, undcrthe nnme of Indian Vegetable Pills.
