Such the heads Of the Governors Communication,
and every will admit that they sufficiently
merous; but whether calculated to produce to reeue
hard times, the public must decide There certain
lu
doctrines and sentiments large portion of the commun
ty must repudate. If the Governor had toll where
the means were to be raised for efcting his schemes
without resort to heavy taxation then might the pro-

does, indeed, say He ''is advocate for high tariff
enemy TO free rade.' But we doubt if stronger
expression in favor ofa protective tariff and in condem-

Message-.he man who wishes to put joint of meat
three times day into the pot of the laborng of the
North provided be taken from the pot of the labor
ing of the South IfGovernor Morehcad be opposed
to high tariff why does he object to the repeal of the
Tariff of 1S42-which will, we'll assured, fall
short of raising sufficient for the purposes of
the Government by at least eight ten mllons and
this, in consequence of its prohibtoy character But
shall how far his whig friends in the Legisla-
ture will be prepared to sustain these tariff notions


We close with promise to advert to these matters
