 The sentiment was received with unbounded ap- probation, and Mir. Clay rose, evidently agitated, to proffer his thanks to the company. His speech was

  his seat the company expressed their satisfaction by niue cheers. Mir. Clay said - Mr. President, and feLionr citirenS :-

 thank you for the very cordial reception with which have been honored, during my visit to this city, thank you for the present distinguished proof of your confidence and esteem. thank you for the sentiment which has just been drank. The appreciation of our fellow citizens is always gratifying There are times and places and circumstances which give an uncom- mon interest to the manifestations of their friendly feelings. s

 In foreseeng, as many years ago thought did, the success which would crown the exertiOns of the people of the United States, by the application of portion oi their industry to the arts, was gifted with no spirit of prophecy. l only studied the character and the of our countrmen and country. Ot their enterprise, ingenuity and perseverance,, no doubt could be entertained. We produced all the essential raw materials, and we had the command of boundess power, natural and artificial. With these elements, physical and mora why should we fail !- Nor has the strength of conviction abated by the dscouragng predictions of the nlid and interested. These have not been wanting in all stages of ona progress; and the failure of arms, in both wars well of our arts had been confidently fore told. Our march has, nevertheless, been onward, and successful, and triumphant, and glorious.

 If the friends ofAmerican industry had presented system for its protection, based upon doubtful theory and visionary spcculation-ft they had offered to the consideration oftheir countrymen scheme whlcheX- perience in other nations had demonstrated to be im practicable and injurious, all the opposition which

 

 fable. But they came forward with no doubtful pro- ject. They were sustained by the experience of all countries and especially of that from which we sprung And now the very great success which has attended those branches of our manufactures which were ade- quatey protected enables add that of own testimony the wisdom of self defence and protec ton.

 Notwithstanding the new markets which have been created, the wants which have been supplied, and the animation which has been given to labor, the foes ofthe American system continue their opposition with perseverance worthy of better cause Avaing themselves of the irrations and divisions ncdenttoa late contested eecton and enstng under the banners of distinguished name they have taken fresh cour- age and assa the further progress ot our manutac- lures with renovated vgor. Prior to that event, they had contented themselves with controverng the p0t- cy of encouragement; and no statesman m congress had been seen bold enough seriously to question the right ofCongress afford it. But the legislature ofa distinguished state after long deberation and mature consideration, has solemny resolved that Con- gress does not possess the to counteract oregn legislation by laws of self protection. From the very commencement of the government and throughout all the stages Of its existence in peace and m war, that power has been asserted and exercised. 1t is delega ted by more than one clause in the Constitution. Un- der the authority regulate commerce with foreign nations, we have the power exercised to suspend, for long and indefinite periods, commercial intercourse with all nations, and especially with Great Britain and France. The power to oreguate our foreign commerce Is penary clear and explicit; and, 1.-the clause which

 

 guage inadequate to supply the appropriate terms. Under another clause, also full and explicit, the pow CT IS granted to lay mposts, without limitation as to a. mOun and has been exercised to extent far beyond the wishes of the friends of the American system to ap- ply it.

 hope the vigor of this new attack upon the system will be met by corresponding vigor in it's defence Let treat antagonists with the greatest respect and be tender of their preudices. But, faithful to measures, let firmly meet concert and cooperation the other sde by concert and cooperation on ours Let oppose mind to mind, and exertion to exertion and if we must fa-if the bright prospects which lie before us to be dsspaed and destroyed let there be no occasion for representing ourselves. If our op- ponents can make themselves the majority, however much we may deplore the issue of the struggle, we will bow with submission and deference to the will of the majority. If, as hope, our system is preserved, and improved will now hazard the prediction, that less than 20 years the value of our exported manu factures will exceed in amount that of all the exports of raw produce from country. ,H@

 To me it has been source of the greatest satsfac ton, that have ever been an humble co-operator with the representation from Pennsylvania in supporting the good cause. only seconded the efficient and able exertiop of her distinguished sons, some of whom represented this city, Indeed, throughout public service in the national councils, which commenced more that 20 years ago. has been my happiness nev- CT differ with that state any great measure ot na- tional policy. will not make an exception of the Missouri question, because agreed with her in the abstract on the subject of slavery, and all the prae- tical and constitutional means of riddng the country of it's evils and she ultimately hailed the amicabe set clement of that threatening question, with patriotic joy. that was difference in relation to men, not measures. It was not one of the most inconsderable reasons which induced me on that occasion to make the seec ton which did, that thought the measures which Pennsylvania approved would be safer under the ad- ministration of our present chief magistrate l knew |. hou haen
