All this is shipped to six ports alone-
Now, if Agricultural products which we
now send to these islands would no longer
be exported by us, the trade would go into
the hands of the British. For II Is not me-
cessary for the people of these six ports to
take any of these goods from US; but as we
bring back the prodr cts of their countries,
sugar, &c. in exchange for ours. they
trade with US in return because we are
their customers, and our market is conven
lent for them. But with a horizontal duty
in force, England would take those mar
kets from US. and leave US only markets
for part of our Cotton and Tobacco.


"The Secretary of the Treasury states
that we employ in the transportation of our
agricultu raj products of the six ports 49,
056 men, $40 boys, 1887 vessels, amoun-
ting to 2S2 $50 tons-Here is then 18th
of our whole maritime force engaged in
taking out our products, and bringing US
back wealth in return-equal to the en>
tire revenue of the United States Governs
ment. And this income is derived from
our timber. which cost US nothing as forest
production, employed in ship -building) and
in freights, and agricultural industy ex'
ported under the flag of the United States" /"
These facts show the necessity ofa home
market of the agricutura!ist, and this mar
ket is only to be furnished by the increase
of manufactures. and the export of the sur
plus of manufactured articles.
