REMARKd UPON THE COMPARATIVE PROFIT
op aitocnita and retailers,
At derived from Temperate and Intemperate
Customers (concluded.;
But let us examine more minutely the re
lntion of an intemperate anil n temperate In
borer, as a mere source of profit, to the" Gro'
ccr wlio supplies them. Take them from
the same condition of life. Suppose them to
have Icon origially of equal capacities. Let
Rich be the head of a small family. We
male.tft reference to them here, ns moral
and accountable agents ; but propose to com
pare mem as mere msnumcms gam.
We feavo the soul out of the account. Let
this being of heavenly workmanship, "so no-
oie in reason, so lnuuiic in incuiucs, in .ono
nnd moving so express nnd admirable, in uc
tjoa so like an angel, in apprehension so
like a God" let him, for a moment, wo say,
be regarded as of no more intrinsic value,
than ns it ho were "mndo out ot cheesc-par
ing nfter supper." It is not the swill nscon
sion of his immortal nature, through the
bright scnlo of infinite improvement, which
we now contemplate: but only his move
ments forwards or backwards along that of
cents, dismes and dollars.
There is one fact which' can be proved in
a thousand wny3, that as soon as a man be
comes tho slnve of intemperance, his labour,
considering his intervals of idleness, his di
minished skill, the subordinate kinds of em
ployment to which he is put, nnd the mis
chiefs, voluntary and involuntary, which he
is perpetually committing, has not more than
one third the value of that of a temperate
man. Inking into view the shortened peri
od of his life and the fact, thnt if he approach
advanced ace, he is disabled and bioken
down, nnd we do not believe that an intelli
gent farmer or mechanic can be anywhere
iound, who would hire an intemperate man,
nt the age of twenty, thirty, or forty years,
for the rest of his life, nnd givo one sixth
so much for all his future services as he
would for thosoofa temperate man. Wo
will, however, abate but two thirds of the
value of his future labour.
Exclusive of Sundays and holydays, we
allow three hundred working days for the
year. Tho temperate man will work every
day and earn 8300. His wife can earn 630
more, total 8350. Tho drunkard earns
one third as miich, 8100. His wife, driven
to greater Cxertion, besides doing all the
harder work about the house, from which
temperate men always relieve their wives,
will earn 875, total 8175.

furnished bv tho magnificent river fio;n who had conspired logWmViu. I'"-
ishment. Upon these a small dividend is
sometimes received, nnd sometimes not.
This taking n dividend of hccnty-five per
cent is ns though n fanner should sow n bush
cl of grftin, and, nfter nil his own labor,
should harvest from it only n pcclf.
But our argument has not yet laid hold of
its strongest supports, lln Uroccr be inndo
richer by changing ono customer from tern
pernto to intempcrntc hnbits, he would be
made n hundred fold richer by thus chan
ging tho characters of a hundred. Give to
a Grocer tho monopoly of the trade of a
hundred lamilics in common circumsnnccs
ns to property, for twenty years. In return
for this monopoly, however, let him be bound
to remain nmong them for twenty years, to
share their fortunes, pay taxes according to
his property, &c. &c. Invest him with some
despotic flower or somo devilish nrt, by
which he can transform them all into drunk
ards in a week. What will be his condition,
wc will not say at tho end of twenty, but o
ven of five years? Even before that limo
has elapsed, the Grocer will find bad debts
multinlvimr unon his books. If he nnnhes
to nn attorney for assistance, he will have
occasion to take receipts for costs paid, much
more often than to give them for debts col
lected. His taxes will soon double, treble,
quadruple, although tho school will not be
Kept so long, nor the roads be so well re
paired, His utensils will bo borrowed tind
broken, or never returned. The chaise or
wagon he has lent will bo overturned and
destroyed. Assaults, batteries and riots will
be committed in or about his premises, nnd
he will be summoned to Court ns a witness
and obliged to leave his business for a week.
I Jis draw will be rilled, nnd he must prose
cute tho offender. Some children will be
como beggars and extort his property. Oth
ers will turn thieves nnd purloin it. One in
solvent debtor will move nwnv or nbscond :
one will die; one break n limb and bo car

one commit suicide ; one be sentenced to
imprisonment, anil nnotner will expiate Ins

the value of tho monopoly of such customers
at tnc end ol twenty years I
But it may be asked, how can all this bo
without great profits? How can property,
once in being, be lost by ono man without
being gained by another I
Tho drunkard realizes the fable of the
Upas tree. There is destruction all around
him. Tho house, in which he lives, do-
scends with a quicker ruin. The farm he
manages, lorgets to bear the life-sustaining
harvest, and is luxuriant only in briars nnd
thorns. Weeds choko out the grass in his
fields. Insects consume his orchards. His
cattle become like the "lean kine" of Pha
raoh. If he be engaged in trade, his calcu
lations always err. His plans are dispro
portionate to'his means. He consorls with
rogues nnd sharpers who defraud him. He
ivhirh it is named, and bv the tributaries
of.that river,) enough, it is believed, to drive
ull the looms now in operation in the Union ;
it supports a population equnl to one-sixteenth
of the entire population of the United States;
.mxil U In rnpuhle of supporting ten times that
number, if the facilities which have been
given by nature shall be improved and ren
dered available by thu art nnd enterprise
of man. The welfare of so large a popula
tion the development of such great resour
ces, cannot bo an unworthy object of protec
tion to d government which seeks, by rea
sonable aUenlion to the claims of each sec
tion, to promote the common ptosperity ol
the whole.
But there nre special as well .is general
reasons which, in the opinion of oui com
mittee, make this enterprise a matter of pe
culiar interest to the General Government,
This road will run straight from the sea
board to the frontier of a neighboring gov
ernment. Should we continue at peace with
that government, a trnflic and intercourse
of the most profitable kind, with the subjects
of that government, will receive a mighty
imnu so from this work, nnd will Ifave u
tendency to secure by a strong additional
bond of mutual interest and intimacy, the
present friendly relutions between the two
count, ied. This remark will apply with
still greater force to the effect which this and
other" similar works, of whichthis is but a
continuation, will have on the relations of the
several States of our own Union. Compos
ed ns that Union is, of many sovereignties,
spread over so wide an extent of country,
nnd embodvinr manv contending inteiests,
there is much reason why every well-wisher
to his country ihouliHlinil the progress ol
improvements which, by breaking down the
barriers to sectional intercourse, diminish
the operation of sectional animosity or preju
dice. And your committee cannot but hopi
this enterprise, though its direct object is
merely to meet tho wants of the inhabitants

,v nnn ivnw or tho other. To foster hub
its of intemperanco in such men is to pursue
and exterminate the most active agents of
his prosperity. 11 wouiu oo icss improvi
dent in tho mechanic to break in pieces the
most ingeniously wrought tools or his nrt j
or in the funnel" to give his best seed-grain
to his cattle or cut down for fuel tho finest
fruit trees in his nursery.
There is nn indirect wny, by which the
Grocer loses custom and proht, which we
fear hns been altogether overlooked. Drunk
ards will pay for rum when they will pay
for nothing else, for the plain reason, that
they love rum better than thoy love anything
else. Hence other men, are much more ex
posed to direct loss from their failure to fill
fil their engagements, than the Grocer. But
when the insolvent drunkard borrows his
neighbor's liorso nnd kills or disables ljitn:
hires his chaise and destroys it ; gets a friend
to indorse his note, nnd leaves him to pay it:
borrows money nnd never returns it; nil
those who suffer bv him. if the v nro them
selves prudent nnd thriving men, will curtail
their own expenses until they nave made up
tho loss; nnd tho Grocer unquestionably
sutlers more irom uns ciinaiimeni man any
other man ; because a temporary diminution
in the use of his commodities can be borne
without any change in the outward style of
living.
Manv of tho above remarks have a more
especial reference to tho Grocers or Retail
dealers in the country, than to those in the
city. There nro some other views of great
importance, which apply more emphatically
to thu latter, Many city Grocers, besides
suppying n circle of customers around them
selves, furnish country tinders with their as
sortments, nnd thus become n kind of whole
sale dealers. If one Grocer in the city sup
plies, in this way, ten in tho country, every
change in their business will be felt by him
in a ten-fold degree. If they extend or con
tract their business to the amount of a hun
dred dollars each, it is an extension or con
traction of a thousand to him. To Ills' prof
its, it is the difference between multiplication
nnd subtraction.

the hartfokd convention and mil wt.d
stcr. To the Editors of Ihe N. Y. Commercial
Advertiser :
We frequently see in the public prints, a
mention of tho Hartford Convention by. way
of reproach, nnd evidently with the design
of vilifying thnt body, or some public char
acter. Now it so happens thai the men
who write such paragraphs know nothing
ofthe origin of that convention; nor litis any
true account of it over been given to the
public by those who have written on the
subiect. An L -resided in Massachusetts ut
ihe time of its origin. I was careful to keep
copies of all tho proceedings which led to the
ndontion'of that measure, nnd I have given
a brief bui accurate etii'tementof them in my
History of the United States, edition of I83f,
pages 217 nnd 218. Tho truth is, that nei
ther Daniel Web-ter. who was then n resi
(do'rtt of New Hampshire, noVh sinjle inhab
jtantof Boston had the least concern in tho
first proposition lor that convention, nor the
least knowledge of thu proposal, until the
petitions, suggestng tho expediency of tho
measure ws.-ru ii:aumi'ii iu in? Kjuisiutuii,
Tht! project originated in lamp-litre coun
of defeating it. The President tells us that
the failure of that appiopriaiion nnd thnt par
ticular item, was ol great inconvenience to
he country. On this subject there was un
issue in the National Intelligencer, that of
not only impeaching the President but this
tiouse.
Mr Adams said he considered the trans
actions which occurred between those two
bodies on that day. or night, worthy of in-
qniry. I nis Appropriation oi inri-c minimis
was inserted in the nppropriaiion uui, ny ine
gentleman from New York, (Mr Cninbre-
leng) in consequence ol an act winch unani
mously passed the House the night before.
declaring that the execution of the Treaty
of Julvthe 4th. 1831, should be insisted up
on, it was well known to this tiouse, and
to others out of it, that that resolution was
conttsted on the ground thnt if it was passed
it would be calculated to occasion war. He
then referred to the natural tendency of such
arguments, and added, that this was the
urounn upon which that item was intro
duced on the hist day of the session. Mr
A. then made some remarks respecting u
charge mnde in the National Intelligencer,
and in n debate in the Senate, that the appro
priation introduced into the 1-ortihcalion lull
was unconstitutional. He was hero called
to order by Mr Mercer, of Virginia, who was
requested by the bpeuker to reduce his coll
to writing
Mr Hardin said he hoped the gentleman
from Massachusetts would be permitted to
Rrocecd. He was anxious to hear ull h
ad to say.
Mr Mercer then submitted in writing, that
the member from Massachusetts remarked
in terms, that in the National Intelligencer,
nnd in n debate in the Senate, a charge had
been made, that the appropriation introduced
into the Fortification bill in the other House,
was unconstitutional, thus referring ton late
debate in the Senate, which he considered us
out of order. After an explanation from the
Speaker as to the proper course when objec
tions were reduced to writing, Mr Adams
sjirl iu order to keep perfectly within the
ruieSol the tiouse, he did say some nine lie
fore that Thv would transfer the location of
what hnd taken place to thu National Intel
ligencer office. He did not recollect dis
tinctly the very words he had just used, but
he wished to allude to what appeared iu the
National Intelligencer. Mr Mercer inter
rupted him, and said the gentleman referred
to a debate in the Senate. Mr A. replied,
that the gentleman from Virginia must take
Ins words and not his meuning. lie con
sidered he had a right to refer to what took
place in the Senate Inst session, with ns much
tironrii-iv ns to n mntterol history.
Mr Mercer Mild il the gentleman meant to
refer to a debate of last session he would
withdraw his motion.
Mr Adams replied,, that he did not refer
exclusively to what look place last session.
lie relerred to tho INutional Intelligencer
of what M'ns done now; but if he was not
permitted to allude to what took place in tho
Senate last session he would sit down, and
let tho vote bo taken at once upon his reso
lution.
Mr Mercer then said that after what had
fallen from the gentleman, ho should insist
upon his question of order.
Mr Wise hoped the gentlemnn would bo
permitted to proceed, whether in order or
not. If uv.er thero was a time when we were
culled upon to ascertain the truth, now was
the time. Let us, (said he) have the whole
truth, no matter who it affects, whether it
and perseverance annihilated, the lessons r.L -'dmi-li
frugality and economy discard , '"I""

He then noticed the courso ol the House,
where he said thero was not a syllable of
objection because it was not recommended
by tho lixecutive, ns every oouy unew u
crew out of the vote of the night before.
The nppropriaiion was confined to the exi
gencies of the country, nnd was intended to
nrovide anninst the contitiGcncv of the ap
proach of n foreign enemy. He read the
resolution and asked gentlemen to please to
observe for what purpose the money was re
quired. Was this House wasting and squan
dering the public money wh'en thy mn.le

ted another petition praying for Ihe same object
from 400 citizens of Pennsylvania. He asked
the House to receive it, slating that it was sent
to him from the petitioners themselves, but for
what motives he knew not. He went on to
reply to the argument of the gentleman from
Georgia (Mr Glascock,) maintaining, at length
and vehemently, that a refusal to receive was
equivalent to a denial of the right of peti
tion. As to the resolutions spoken of by the
gentleman from Georgia, he now warned (hat
gentleman and the House, that he should not
be restrained Irom presenting and advocating
petitions by the adoption of those or any other
resolutions. He denied the right of the House
to adopt resolutions, restricting discussion or
the right of presenting petitions on any subject.

question of reception, and left it to the disposi
