The above is ex

millions ofpouttds sterling, and in one year
they amounted to more than 125 milliorts,and
the revenue was about 80—the rest by loans
The taxes, excises. &.c. produced 57 millions
in 1826 ; and about 55 millions may be assu-
med as the average peace revenue that will be
required, to pay the interest on the debt and
other charges and burthens on the productive
classes. The public debt, in 1776, at the coin-
trieitcetnent of the American war, was 136
millions. The increase ofthe tytltes and poor
rates paid, has not been so great,in proportion,
bsthe increase of the debt——but at present
may amount to 12 or 14 millions. So that
the dues payable directly to the government
priests and the paupers, is nearly 70 millions
a year, on a peace establishrnent. Tltesei
' terns will be referred to belt-w—but we shall
first endeavor to shew what it is that has ena-
bled l8 or I9 millions of pcoplc,at the present
time, to pay 70 millions annually in taxes and
rates, when 18 or 14 millions, (in 1788,) were
thought to be almost as severely taxed to pay
18 tnillions. Now the whole people pay about
Sol. 103 sterling per head-—then they paid only
about ll. 55. Thisittcreascd ability ltas grown
out of the increase and application ofsci€tt-
tific power in Great Britain-—-and the want of
suclt increase and application in other coun-
tries. And ifthe depreciation of value in the
pound sterling, on the one hand, be regarded,
the appreciated price of subsistence, on the
other, will more than balance it.
Britain, though long before powerful,started
into a new state ofexistence at about that pe-
riod when the French revolution commenced;
and to the wars which grew out of that me
morable event, may be, undoubtedly, attribu-
ted the progress of her means, to corttroul or
direct the destinies of rtations. While other
countries were over-run with foreign enemies
or desolated’b_v civil commotions, and their
productive population, the labouring classes,
(and these are the only creatures ot’value,)
were dragged en masse to the field attd ntade
fighting-machines of, or otherwise cast frotn
the productive into the consuming classes,
while almost every ttsefttl occupation was in-
terfered with or destroyed by contentions in
artns,and the hum of industry was hushed by
the shrill blastofthe trumpet—Britain,though
deeply engaged in the bloody strife. abroad,ltad
general peace and security at home, and her
productive capacity went beyond all calcula-
tion as to its extent—-power adding to powt:-r
without end, so long as a market was open to
receive her mattufactures. She struck when:
she pleased, and 9‘ loosed the dogs of war” at
her will. There was no mystery itt this-—shc
became the great manufactory or work-shop
oftltc civilized worlda-‘—for all other people,
fitted to compete with her, were engaged in
business pertaining to the destruction of eaclt
other; and one man, quietly seated irt Eng-
lattd, aided by labour-saving tnacltines, could
produce articles which, in the market, would
dell for as much money as would hire and
subsist zttventy, thirty, or fifty miserable
ti-retcltes employed to carry and point a rittts

in the “ legitirnate” Quarterly Review,"tn re-‘

in the state in which the world was too years
ago, and as :1 large part ofthe people of Eu
rope yet are, in reference to their progress in
the arts-—850,000 against 42,000,000! and
she calculation as to Value, is 700 millions Of
~...-uttds, or three-thousand ntillions of dollars,
as annual profit to the $50,000, if their pro-
tllIClS were exchanged for the products of
~-titers operatittg without machines l The‘
steam engines of England, by which motion
is (_lt"tt-'fl_y given to machinery, are, in them
selves, equal to the power of three millions 0!
men. So says the Quarterly Review. That
there was, and is, smite reality in these things
we cart readily explain. The taxes, excises,
rates and tytltes, at present payable in Great
Britain and Ireland, antouutm about 70 mill-
i«-tts of pounds-—s:ty 310 millions ofdollars a
year, or more than 100 dollars a year from
eve- _v adult male in the United Kingdotn,pau-
pers and princes, and gipsies and thieves, and
other ttnproductzve and ttseless classes except-
ed. Now, ifthe people cfthe United States
were thus taxed, our rcventie would amount
to about‘200 tnillions of dollars a year !—and
what mighty things could we not do with so
much money ? But the British people have
paid, and clopuy, at the rate above given, and
the ability to make such payments is in and
through the manufactures ttfthc nation, cutt-
ttingly introduced or forcibly sent‘ into_ other
countries for cottsttntption, and thus the labor
ofoue man in En lartd is rendered equal to
that of 100 or 15 elsewhere. So Britain was
enabled to raise and expentl nearly five hun-
her greatest exertion, to preserve her suprem-
acy qfscientffic power, by purchasing nations
like herds of hogs for slaughter! And, as
the requisitions ofgovernment pressed onsub
sistence, the British people exerted their in-
genuity attd industry to produce more goods
. and consutne less provisions, ttntil the ordin-
ary “operatives” were compelled to labor 16
hours ottt oftltc Q4, and live upon‘ something
equal to halfa pint of oat meal per day, as
stated in Parliatuent by Mr. Peel.
And why were these prodigious exertions
made? It was a common saying and a trite
one, that Great Britain was “fig,rhlingfor her
rzislcrtce .’” The “ existence of what :” Did
any one really believe that Napoleon could
invade and subdue Britain ? No-— lte himself
never believed it practicable,until the existence
oftlte Britislt systems oftaxation and supply
had been destroyed, through the want of rttar
kets for British manufactttires : and then, in
dcetl, might London have been added to the
capitals triumphantly entered by that won-
derful man. The " existence” of G. Britain
tltcrt less depended not on the want ofability
0|’ “ill in the people to preserve the soil urt-
pollnted by the hostile steps offoreiguers, than
itt persuading or forcingforeigtters to purchase
and pay for Britislt manufactures. Napoleott’s
policy was to force the British people back
upon their own interior resources, attd encour-
age Or compel -the continental ttations to
mimufactttre for themselves. or, at least, to
dispense with the consutnption of Br. goods-
m_ttl hence the giant-exertions made to pttt
ltzm down-—ltenc,c those measures it hiclt sum-
moned the barbarous ltnrdes that wnndcrt-d
over the black and bleak summits of Cattca
stts,to ravage the plains of“ beautiful France,”
restore the sceptre to the imbecile Bourltotts
in France as well as in Spain, and chain Na-
poleon ltitnselfto the rock of St. Helena to
perish, and give ittttnortal infamy totlte Brit-
ish government for performing the offices at
jailer to the “ holy alliance” of despotsagainst
the human kind.
The war that was carried on in Spain in
the name of Ferdinand, and by the famous
“ Spanish patriots,” as theywere called, was
its much an English war as that which has
just closed with the Burmese. The “ patriots”
were the mere tools with which England wor-
ked agaiust‘Bonaparte, whose possession of
Spain had wholly destroyed the British trade
with that kingdom. And it is surely within
the range of probability to believe, that the
Portuguese may now be used in the saute
way to operate against Spain, because the
latter is again as a dependency of France,
cotisuminglarge quantities of French manu-
factures. And France, in despite of her pre-
sent unwise governmcrtt, by means of the
roads and canals and" martufactures ntade or
established by Napoleon, is the most prospe
tons natiott in Ettrope, and very rapidly itt
terfering with British trade, through the ap-
plication of scientific power, and the more
moderate taxation and cheaper subsistence of
her people ; and it is impossible.tltat,tlte world
being at peace, Britain should withstand the
competition of France and Germttny, or any
other densely populated country, using labor-
saving machinery, because ofthe amount of
taxatiott and cost of subsistence in Britain,
which is twice or thrice as large as in France
or Germany, &.c. and it is these which ultim-
ately settled and establislted the selling valua-
ofcontmodities. »
Aslight view ofthe. effects of -scientific
power, as set forth iii the preceding remarks,
may startle some whose ntittds have not been
accustomed to consider such great arnounts—
but this will no ntore affect the reality of
tbetn than the lattglt ofthe ignorant and pre-
judiced interfered with the principles which
Fulton applied to navigation, and bv which
the moral condition oftlte world has been
changed—-—art having triutnplted over nature
and space. And Franklin ltad long before
been thought a presumptuous fool, for suppo-
sing that the “ artillery of heaven” tnight be
subjected to the government and direction of
matt—-and yet be arrested and confined that
treruettdous agent, the vivid lightning, in a
bottle, carried it whither be listed, and releas-
ed it at his will I V
The policy of Great Britain was to make
all the world her tributaries, through the con-
stttnptioti of lter rnanufacttires; and it is well
to observe that whenever any of the contin-
ental despots was subsidized, his cottntrywas
opened to British trade, as a matter of course,
and thus the subsidy was paid out ofthe pock
ets oftlte people wltose ruler ltad been subst
dized 1 Itt the early part of the French rev-'
olutiott, and before British goods had been ex-
tensively consumed in Germany or Prussia.
82.0. the remittances ofspecie for the payment
of subsidies, ltad so drained the precious uret-
als from England, that the stoppage of the
bank was apprehettdetl. To get back the
specie, the goverttntent agreed to insure the
merchants‘ to whom the affair wasconfided, a
certain profit on mttnufactured articles which
were to be sent into Grermany, and the-.re‘sold

a million or two, bttt how many millions were
lost to the continent by reason ofit ? The in
flux_,._nf goods not only gathered up as ritttch
specie as had been remitted, and more. but
ruined the German manutacturers en rnas-96
and brought millions to beggaty ; and there.
after inttttense! qttarttities of British good.-
were st nt to places in Ettrope which before
had hardly received any, arid the like efiectw
were produced every where. They were lor-
ced into consumption by all possible lItetmS--
forgerzes of ships papers were allowed by the
British gov’t, and smuggling was carried 0"
under the protection of the British cannon ;
and it was thusthat England became the mart-
ufactttrer for Europe and America-
Bttt the British policy must be considered
in another point of view. While bet‘ mam!‘
fractures were forced, by all manner of means,"
into the consumption of riations, she received
no article oftheir product or manufacture irt
return, for their own use, except such as she
could ttot produce or manufacture in and for
herself. So the policy,§like a two edged sword,
cut both ways.
are concltisive.on this proposition. Nay, to
such an extent was the industry ofllle B1/lllsll
people at-home prote‘cted_, to enable them to
pay the taxes and rates, that British Subjects
in Europe might not eat bread, even bread,
raised by British subjects in Atiterica, though
the latter werecompelled to receive and con-
sume British manufactures only! And again
—because the,West India colonies require
large supplies ;of British mant‘tfac'ures, and
the East India colonies small quantities,speak-
ing comparatively, an extra duty is levied on
East India sugar, equal to the original cost of
the article, to favor the product of the West
Indies,and tbtts enable the inhabitants thereof
to pay for manufactured goods.
It is useless to dwell on these matters. The
policy cannot be mistaken. “ He that runs
may read.” And this is most manifest; that
the overgrown wealth and power of England"
resists ttpon ARTIFICIAL MEANS,-—that
is, in peculiar advantages gained over orrasrt.
nations, iii the tnariner described.
Mall is every where pretty niuclt the same
in his nature, and extensively becoutes,as Mr.
Owen would say, the “creature of circum-
stances.” VVhat ltas gathered the circulating
we:-ltltofthe world, as it were, at London,
may divert it to Paris; and it would be so di-
vcrtetl. were it established that England and
France should exchange da.y’s labor with one
another; that is, trade on equal terms. And
how is it when we compare British labor with
that oftlte United States? In the great busi-
ness of navigation. thougli the winds and
waves are called her “domain.” we have su-
perceded her wlterever ottr ships may enter
on the same terms as her own; and Liverpool
ltas almost as much the appearance of an A-
tnerican port as aBrittsh one. We are the
carriers of our own commodities and . those
of Britain which we receive. Navigation
tnainly existstltrough manual labor, and, on
that account,though we talk tnuch about high
wages in this country, we can, and do, build,
‘equip and sail sltips much cheaper than they
do in England. And again, the cnttnri uran-
ufactttre is chiefly excelled in scientific power.
and in this we are beginning to be, and soott
will be, a great rival of Britain. ‘Va export
thousand ofbales to Mexico and South Amer:
ica, and the Mancltestermanufacturers have
been compelled to imitate ottr goods to sell
their own——to cheat the people of these coun-
tries into purch tses, for they are sold as A-
merican. Why the necesityofthisdeception,
what the use of such lying, why resort to arti-
ficial means,ttt a common market,ifltonorable
rnmpetttiott might be sustained? But ship
loads of these counterfeit goods are now in the
countries just tneutioned. And again-wlty
suhject the colonial trade to the itieqttalities
about which we are now contending—-why not
permit an American ship from New York to
an entry at ‘Jamaica, on the same terms as a
British one from the saute place and with a
like cargo, if“ free trade” was practised in-
stead oftalked about? But in this, as in other
cases, things are forced out of their natural
channel tokeep tip the British system of tax-
ation at borne. Another striking instance of
this exertion of force-is manifested in whatwe
daily witness. Three fourths or fottr fifths of
all the British manufactures now sent to the
U. States are on British account—mcrchants,
jobbers, speculators and bankrupts ; much on
tccount of the latter, to close their concerns.-
And the goods thus forced ittto the United
Stated into consumption through the auctions
—sold for what they will bring,as to nominal
price, and destructively interfere with the
regular business of every American merchant
or manufacturer
Mttclt more might be said to support ottr
broad position, that the power of Great Bri
tztiu is chiefly artificial or peculiar. and not
natural. It cannot then exist, with the world
at peace. Except because of the stimulus
afforded to British industry attd production,
through an opening oflliexico and South A-
merica for the consumptiort oftheir gnods,th‘e
Britislt opcrea/Lives have-been getting poorer fat;
poorer. ntor and more miserable, every year
sittce their country was at peace, until they
have reached tlteir present condition, which
is the tnost calatnitous of, perhaps, any other
class of persons irt Europe—for they are bor-
dering on a state ofactual starvatiort. Tlteir
burthens are as heavy as before, though the
detttand for British goods ltas been lessened,
or the prices ofthetn exceedingly reduced.——-
U. States, export tnauy articles of which G.
Britain, until lately, ltad a monopoly; and
in Prussia,Russia, and other countries, titan
ufacturing establisltments, fttrnislied with the
ntost approved tnachinery, begin to abopnd ;
and the governments ofall these are more or
less engaged to demartd or cotnpel, reciprocity
in their relations with Great Britain. Whett
that is generallyobtained, the power of Brit-
ain must he reduced and her systems will fail.
'I‘lteir use of ‘labour saving niacltiuery has
btttlt up the present etiortnous taxeswhich they .
pay, and the use of such ntacliittery by ‘others
has already arrested, and will finally destroy,
the ability in them. The worst used slaves
in the United States live bountifully, compa-
red with the British labouring classes; and
these classes cannot be subsisted, at all, one
would suppose, on less than they, now are.-—
They have, perhaps, ‘reached the most reduc-
ed amouni of food by which labour and life
can be sustained.

ain pursue ? Will she reduce; tlte.-interest on

these lln'n2‘s,? We thittk not, without a vio
lent revolution'.- She will therefore endeavor
to pttt off the pefif'Id when the but-then on thr-
penple must be reduced, as long as she can ;,
and, as site fbugltt for “ existence” some
years ago, she will fight for it agaiuf and she"
can better carry on it war wi_th halfthc world,
than maintain the ielations of peace—provid-
manufactures. The munitions of war are-
chiefly witltitt herself, and we have seen how
expended is expended at home, and the peo-
ple live plentifully because ofthe dentattdfor
their labor, though the government is borrow-
ittg mrtney ; anditbis the people can lendrover
and over again without limit, and will lend. so
long as interesrfor the use ofit is paid. The
finanical prosperityor adversity ofa govern-
ment, has not, of necesstty,a'ny relation to the
prosperity or adversity of a people. The most
disastrous years we have experienced in the
United States, was when our revenue was the

Seminary for TeacIrer.9.——A correspondent.
("Scmprom'u.9t”) has sent us some remarks
ttpon an article in our last paper but one, rela-'
tive to the impossibility ofsupplying our com-
mon schools with competent ittstructors, Oltt
ofthe stock now on hand. He says he has
been 8 School master for several years, and he
do very well, ifthere was a better state of o-
pinion and feeling in the public mind. As
we know not wlto our friend may be, we have
taken the liberty to withhold his communica-
tion from the pub|ic,«inasmucli as we can'sat-
isfy him that the public could make no sense
of some portions ofit, were we to publish it.
VVe hope he will not be cffettded (as be scents
very well disposed on the subject.) ifwe draw.
from his remarks, another argument in favor
ofthe proposed institution. We will consider
our friend's article as a specimen of English
composition, and will suppose him to be un-
der examination to take the school which, it
would seem. he is now teaching. He spells
thus}-—-“ dependant—inteleganr:e—-—-‘ompet-
ant—ver:'_v—superceded.” He divides words
thus :'—“ tbemsel”, on one line, '- ‘ ves” on the
next : “ sch” on one line, “ ools”on the next.
His grammar stands thus :—-“ The commun-
ity have little regard for the person who offers
himself as a candidate for teaching school,
than the price.”—-“Ibeg leave through the
medium ofynttr paper to exhibit to the pub-
lick. what, from several years experience and
attentive observation. I am inclined ~ to attri-
bute as the principal cause of so great a por
tion.” 82¢.
Now all we have to say to “ Sempronius.”
(and he must take it in good p3tt,) is, that a
matt who spells and divides and arranges
words, as he has in the article before us, is no
more fit to teach children the English lan-
guage, than we are to teach him the Indian
tongue. “ Sempronius” should quit his school
itumt-diately, and never offer himself as a
teacher again until_ he is qualified for the
place.—.S'pring'_field Journal.
