 B1 particular request, We publish lo-da}a sketch of the great speech recently delivered bg Ae. Wright Jo the farmers, WooI=eHo8efs. manufacturers, mechanics aui Iab5ess oi New ! Yafk. | is like himself, pla!a, to the point. afgafaeHlatjye and full ol laels. 8ilhous rhetoric or pre.ensiou. There is no aftraism or imPraeticability in his zpecch. ltisa calm appeal to reasonable minds, and WeaTe much mistaken i. t cid not Carry deep convictions along Wifh Il. III many respects L'e draws pal pable distinction between q tariff 4igine incidental protection, and that high. ploiee- tive, prohibitory tariff, the parentof mouopo- lies, for which our opponents contend. Iic shows, too, by forcible illustrations, the glar- ing absurditv, inequality and oppression of what afe called HjHjHlHl and specifc duties terms well understood at the Custom House by which, in one ease, the importer is made 10 Pasa & lax ia proportion 10 the raiehi aad not the value of he article. thus taxing the

 heavier and more necessary article highest;

 and in the other case, where an artificial val

 ue is pu. by the law upon the goods, and

 they are made to pay higher duty than thef

 originally cost. Mir. Wright completely eX- plo8e@. ina few words, and by q tea. familiar

 example,, those two monstro8s iaiacies SO

 warmly maintained by the wings, ffsf, that I high tariff raises the wages of labor. and

 secondly, that the establishment and DFatec-

 lion of manufactures by prohibitory duties

 benefits the farmer by furnishing q market

 for his produce. He shows the absuality of

 this, and the disastrous effect which. I car

 fled out, Il would have on mechanics and op-

 eratires, by the most conclusive reasoning, and by the frequent examples ol Enqland. To these points particularly, we invite the at

 tention of practical mea, but the whole speech

 sheds a flood of light on the subject, and pre- sents Il in a clearer view than any Ne have ever read before. This is merely an abstract of one division of Mr. Wnght's speeeh-he discussed fha distribution scheme. and the

 wild project of inc assumption of State Debts. There is much in MT. Wright 10 command the attention of practical men. He IS one Of the understandable men of the age. Self- taught, poor, literally earning his bread@bv the sweat of his brow, he has won his way to the Senate of the United States. and main- tained his stand there for years, in the same class with Calhoun, Webster and Clay. with ont making a single enemy-sueh is inc aa- efgY, the mildHess, the honesty and benevo- lence Of bis character. He has refused more than once the highest place in the Cabinet under three administrations foreign missions and the office of Governor of New Y ork have been tende5ed him in vain; he declined the nomination for inc Vice Presidency. pressed upon him by inc late Democratic National Convention, and would have been nominated by that body for President, by exclamation, had il nol been known that he would have relused il. He has with difficulty been per- saaded 10 continue in ihe Senate. As soon as is sessions close, he rerircs 10 his IiHIe farm. which he cul,iyates with his own hands. and like Goldsmith's parson, deems himself ''passing rich on fifty pounds year.o Al man with so little ambition and such superior talents, SO brilliant in the Senate, vet so fond Of retirement; so distinguished as states man, so high in the affections of his parlg. and vet enjoying the respect of the mhoIe coRntrg-the equal of the greatest debaters ef sse4d 5etsa eEee.l. tfiftf t that the panest mind can fully comprehend the face of his reasoning-is certainly rare character in history. Such man IS SILAs WRIGHT, of New Y ork.
