 It is amusing to see the covert mode fl which the warfare against the Amer lean System is carried on, in different quarters, by editors who are favorable to free trade, but who do not find t ex. pedleilt to come out fairly against if, co 4senaaac. Instead of addressing the un- tserstaaalngs Of their readers, T dead set is made upon their passions and pre- F!dlees, their likes and dislilses, and in this manner, people who will not listen fo q word spoken against the policy of taxing themselves for the benefit of O. shers, which they call pfoteeting home y31dus'fy, and Of apPropriating the pab- lc money to roads and canals, which arc to do them DO good, open their ears wide 10 hear tllesame policy denounced, vilra is called 'NMr. Clay's system. It is to be lanented that such is the state of the public mind, but there seems to be no remedy for it. The people have been hunlbugged into folly, and they must be humbugged out of it. But for all this, we think that little plain ef talk than some deal out could be stood without much risk. The issue of the Presidents cetp ought to inspire confidence in the success of other eff forts to overthrow another branch of the same policy, and we think that if cur co-laborers would try the ice little farther out from the shore, than they Rave usually ventured, they would find Ii bear them. Since the recent cleo lions in the State of Maine, the free trade party have T sure foot-hold in that State, as will be evident to any one who. has observed that opposition to the res tfictlvc policy was a prominent trait in the requirements of the successful par Y. And as to Massachusetts, we have strongly fortified position in Boston.
