not have seen in the procession, and towards
which we exclaimed with Byron,


"What business Ind it herc-at such tme?''
was the extract from MIR. PoLK's letter about
"eoual protection to all interests, &c. &C." That
it was equipocal-was enough to condemn it with
frank plain-deaiing Republican Carolinians. We
trust, VIC Jeliere Mr.. Polk meant by equal pro-
tection impartial forbearance from allnterfercncs
with the industrial pursuits of The country. We
are sure that our spirited Committee of arrange
ments interpreted the proffer of protection, as the
French merchants OF old answered .hcir monarch
who offered government protection, and was told
in reply, slaisser, nous tairc-yosr best protection
to us is to let us alone. But yet we would not
tolerate the ,oord upon Charleston banner. AS
Mrs. Quickly said OF the word occupy" it was
decent word enough once, but has been put to
such vile uses us to have lost caste. Pnthee have
none OF It!


"We enter this our p,otes! in no fault-fnding,
carping spirit-but from q sense of duty as a
sentinel, whose duty it Is to reply with plain ,rnth
when asked Watchman-,o ,ohat of the night -"
Now we Like this-it is honest. The South
Carolina Nuli6ers supported Mr.. Polk becausa he
had been all his life opposed 10 tie protection OF
American industry. They have therefore right
10 beheve that he Will oppose IL Wiien ne cnies W
be President Butthe Pennsylvania Tariff Loco
Focos blindly persisted in believing, or affecting
to believe, that Mr.. Polk would favor protection
and now ,ha. their votes have elected hin, they
begin to fear that he viii betray them. They
,oould be dupes, and they have been duped. But
when the ruin and distress which must follow the
adoption of Mr. Folks ffee.uade anti-protaction
policy are realized, then may we expect TO hear
these deceived Pennsylyanians, crying out from
the depths OF their sorrow, in the words OF their
fellow Loco-Foco OF the Sunbury American,
" Fo unto Ike man who has betrayed rs"
