A Riddle

We find the following riddle in the Bangor Gazette. It presents a chance for those who are "good at guessing." - We give two extracts - one from Mr. Clay's Raleigh speech, published the National Intelligencer, June 29, 1844, and the oiher from Mr. Polk's Letter to J. K. Kaner June 13, 1844 - and we will defy aii)' Whig or Democrat, who does not know, to decide with certainty from the sentiments contained in them, which is from the speech, and which from the letter. Who will be the first to guess the riddle? :J am in favor of a "Let the amouni tarift'for rcvenue, such which is requisite for a one us will yiell a an economicul adniindufficieniamount to ihe istration of the govern ireaaury fo clefruy the ment, wheu we ore not expenses of the governengaged in wnr, be menr, econainicaliy adraised exclusivcly on minissered.
