HOGS AND HORNED CATTLE.

On Thursday last two drovcs Of hogs
passed through tais place for the cast
| he Two drodcs made in all 2e2s. At a
modsrate computation, eleven thousand
hogs and FIVE thousand beef cattle have
! passed through he town principally Tor
Ballmore) this sason, we believe most
| iy from the counties of Musklngum,
Ross, Pickaway Fairfield, Perry and
Licking.
At the first view Of this subject, 1t
would seem thatmuch permanent! bene-
fit might be d,,riFed from this trade, but
upon maturer consideration ard little
calculation, the contrary is found TO be
The case. A
Eleven THOUSAND hogs a: IN average of
200 lbs. each viii be 10000 pounds,
.'hch at A dollars per hundred is $4,000
iollar..-l'ivs hundred horned cao'c at
al, .vcraye of4o0 lbs. each, i, 100000
pounds, and ti'is at dollars per .unlrci.,
is 100000 dollars. The aggregate, az
ter deductnE one sixth for expenses, is
El56,66s %, to be brought into the
sate. Now if thi. money could remain
in the state, it would help US out OF dif-
fcu!ty but as it is, the men who have
purchased this stock have not pad, in
ail probahlity. more than one halt oil The
purchase money, which, when realized
.rcn the sales will BE- paid 20 the far
ners, by them to the merchants, and BY
them in turn, paid out for foreign goods.
Tbs portion of the money viii amount
10 $4,000, allowing the cost Of hogs TO
be So per hundred, and that Of beef
cattle 81 So This calculation leaves
in he hand OF the purchasers, for the
purpose OF collecting more live stock to be
disposed OF in tie same way, SlO9,6o6
IS 2-3 cents, which together with the
other, at length gets over the mountains,
and then it take. but one step TO get into
the Golfers Of Europe.
Thus i. the money in tho western
country kept constantly in contracted
circle, with no prospect of expans.on,
until Spectators give place to matN.ac-
,nrrrs. Let us become manufacturing
instead ct slhrcu'ating people, and our
money vii re,c ain nn1edeed, at home.

A HINT TO YOUNG LAWYERS.

1.-THE profession of the law under re
publican government" says Judge Brack-
enridge, "not only leads TO emolument
but qualities for political eminence if that
were thing desirable for ones own sake !;
which it is not but, for the sake of the
public, it is desirable. And it may not
be in the way Of pirate emolument or
happiness for one OF the profession Of the
law, to give his service to the public, on a
special occasion but for ones own sake,
| have said that political distinction is no,
in general desirable. 1t is to the youtlyM
of the profession, chiefly, that the glare OF
eminence in politica life, is at all capti-
waiting; and, from the fire and passion Of
that age, they are the least fit for 1t. |
count therefore him who confines himself
to bis profession, till he has arrived at the
calm Of years, as most likely to consult bis
own happiness, and at the same time, the
interests of the public. For it cannot we'll
be, that before this time, he has acquired
an independence of estate; and much
less, that be possesses that self denial, and
humility of spirit, which experience in life
gives; so as to render him a useful mem

That if;t be possible for men, caleula-
ting the profits of enterprize, to be excited
by humanity, repugnance must be telt at
being instrumental IN exposing men to
such barbarty, .rapaciousness, and even
death
That the assurers demand ten guiDeas
for risk to the main land, which under
ordinary circumstances, ought to be done
from two 10 three guneas per cwt.
That it is even difficult 10 insure at this
enormous premium.
That although shippers may be induced
in limited degree, TO submit to such
burden, they do not feel that undertakings
which are made with so much risk, and so
much doubt as TO their arriving at their
destination, can fairly be considered as
operations resting Oh such security as heT-
chants ought to look for.
That the protection given by America
to her commerce with the new world, en-
sures to her subjects precedence in mar
kets which we shall lose, and the efforts to
suppress race of marauders, formidable
as power 10 a state OF warfare, will IN.
sure to them advantages which are still
within our reach.
That continuance of the difficulties
which now exist and must tend TO make
the ships of other nations the carriers to
Colombia, and injure in some degree our
shipping interest.
In reply to the petitioner, the Lords
Commissioners of the Admiralty signifled
to him that they had directed the Com

be in his power.
AMERICAN MANUFACTURES.
Gen. Mcclure made bet of fifty
d liars, that he would take wool in the
fleece and manufacture suit of saiinet
cloth in ten hours The bet was deci.
ded last Saturday in his favor, having
completed the suit and put them on In
eight hours and forty-fve minutes.
The color was blue mixture. The
wool was colored in thirty.five min
utes carded, spun and wove in two
hours and twenty-five minutes; iulled,
mapped, dried, sheared and dressed in
one hour and ffty-nine minutes; car
ried in four minutes three quarters OF a
mile, to the taylor shop of Mr.. Gilmore;
who with the assistance of seven hands
completed the coat, jacket, and over
aIls in three hours and forty-nine min
utes. There was one yard and a half
of the cloth left, being in the whole,
eight yards and half, and OF such
quality as was estimated 10 be worth
one dollar per yard. The General Of
fers to double tho bet that he will
make better suit in less than eight
hours, and dares the advocates of John
Bulls manufactures to take him up.
There was q great collection of people
assembled Oh this occasion. Col. Bar
nard, with the officers commissioned
and non commissioned ofhis regiment
full band of music, and many citizens
escorted the General from the village
to the factory; when, after partaking
of this worthy citizens usual liberality,
the procession returned to the village,
the air resounding with many hearty
cheers, .Steu6en Patriot, Oct. 10.
