"Our wooden manufactures have pro-

war'-says the New York Patron of In

IL regards some parts of the country; but
it is incorrect ia respect to the manufac-
lures Of the Eastern States: our wollen
IN tnufactures are in a ate of gradual
progression and iInprovemeDt-insomu h

proportion Of the wollen cloths (broad-
cloths, cassimeres, &c.) made upinto gar

merchant tailors in this town, is of do
mcstic manufacture. 1t is fact, even,
that many English cloths are offered as
Alaericsn--so far preferable are the lat

have heard a pleasant story OF an English
gentleman. who happened to be in this
town not long since, which we will take
this opportunity to relate: he wanted a
new coat, and oein, a dealer in cloths
hIrnseif, was very particular in selecting
an exselient clotn; after examining at several
stores he called at one where there Was a
very large assortment OF broadcloths, and

York, Tor the compliment which nc had been
pleased 10 pass upon the manner ia which the
duties of the Chairman of the Committees
on Revolutionary Services and Pensions had
been performed. But perhaps the value of
the compliment would have been equally APP
prccia'ed, had it been unattended with the
load of additional duties which the hon. gen
tleman had seemed DESTROYS To attach to il.
Mr. II. was disposed TO perform his full share
of the labors which the exigencies of the ma
ton demanded of their representatives
ne conceived that all the members of that
house came thither with willingness, and
subject IN the duty ofperforning their equal
portion of the public business. And he could
truly say that the duties of the committee OF
which lac had the honor to be chairman were
arduous--withOut aud aside from those bur
thcns which the refusal of this motion would
necessarily impose upon them. Ii the motion
he had the honor 10 submit were rejected, he
felt himself bound frankly to say that it would
not, in his opinion, be in the power of the com
mlttee on Revolutionary Claims and Pensions
to perform these extra duties. The conse-
quence would be, that the petitions preferred
ON that subject would necessarily be postponed !:
and he need not add, that in such case a delay
was tantamount To a denial of Justice. Ii
would certainly be expected of the committee
that they should attend to their appropriate
business before they took up that which came
indirectly and by implication within their cog
nizance: and he would assure the honorable
gentleman that faithful and proper attention
to the former would necessarily precude the
| latter. He therefore hoped that, OF further
reflection, the motion would prevail.
The question on the resolution was there
upon taken, and carried aud the number of

ing resolution:
Resofred, That the committee the ,Iulica he
