mand an offer of one half so much as it sold for
four or five years ago, SO great has been the in-
provement and increase of South American wool,
and the facilities for cleaning it. The twenty per
cent. duty proposed by the Secretary Of the Treas
ury, on these woods, purchased for less than cts.
per ID. abroad, wiH not save our wool-growng far
mers from absolute destruction and ruin, and can
not full 10 PROSTATE this department of agricul-
ture throughout The United States. For what
does 90 per cent on wool, which costs in South
America cents per pound amount TO as a pro-
lection ofour wool growers, against this immense
and no,o ruinOus competition, One dollar on 100
lbs.-,just nothing.
The Secretary of the Treasury is certainy mis-
taken, when he estimates the annual amo INT of
this wool imported, at 9,3O3 1922 lbs. for there was
imported into the port of Boston alone, in lSll,b
vigant collector, 6,S5S,957 lbs and we are assur-
cd by an extensive importer, who is thoroughly ac-
quanted with this whole subject, and the amour,
ofimp'Itations in New York, Boston, Philade-
phia and Baltimore; and he says there is as mach
imported into New York as Boston, and that the
annual and increasing Importation, is from Is to
100000 lbs. per annum. This accounts for
the great gut and falling of prices in the wool mar
kct
That this subject may be understood a, Wash

kind of wool of which we have spoken, also the
sample which we were told was from one of the
fccccs of the Hon. Isaac C.. Bates 1ock--one
sumpe from Mr. Sronss flock, to some Ion Sem

THE STATE DEBI.

1t will be observed that the federal papers have
attempted to make reply, yet, to the able and
cinvncing articles in the Spirit Of The Age, over
the signature Of" Agricola," relative to our State
fnancies and the abuse Of the administrations
What is the reason of their silence' Is the accu-
mutation Of debt of over too hundred thousand
dollars matter Ofso much Indifference as to at
tract no attention The tax payers who have got
to bear the burden Of its liquidation will hardly
come TO such a conclusion. Can there be any
doubt of the truth of these disclosures J They are
drawn from official documents, which woud be
likely to present the case in the light most favor
able to those who made them. Bat the feds, ar
raigned at the bar upon charges of so grave and
serious character, stand mute. What is the in
lerence' Why, clearly, that they plead guilty.
&" Silence gives consent. Patriot.

med to the attic with these very duty free VOols
A few kinds we will here describe, (specimens o.
which, also, we have sent on to Washington, thai
our legislators may have, what is better than rer-
bal OCULAR demonstration of what is necessary
to be done.)
LIST, Smyrna WOOL samples. little finer, shor-
ter and cleaner than Buenos Ayres when unwasll-
ed and picked. We should Judge that this wool
would be used for the same purposes as the wool
of our common and Blackwell sheep. One spec-
men is finer and better, and always is imported
dnty free by the present tariff.
End, Mosadore WOOL from the western part of
Morocco, is finer than the best specimen of the
Smyrna wool, completes with the best of our COM
mon wool, and the coarse wool from half and one
quarter blood Melnos There is reddish APP
pearance about this wool, produced by the African
sands, which is easily washed out. There can be
but little waste to this wool--much less than in the
unwashed South American wool
Sd, Bengazi wool-is very similar to the last,
rather finer and shorter, and is grown in the north
of Africa, probably in Barca and Tripoli
The several specimens of African wool which
we have on our table, are pretty much alike, none
inferior TO, but rather better than our common wool
rather cleaner except the slight tinge from the
sand of which we have spoken-may be cleansed
by washing, and fit to be made into Flannels course
Woolens, Blankets and Satinets,
4h, Crmca wool-grown in the South of Rus
sa, and imported from Crimea, OH the north side
OF the Black Seals coarse, poor stuff, so far as
we have been able TO obtain specimens, and TO
our knowledge cannot be said to compete directly
with any kind Of wool commonly gown in ths
u. s.
9th, Calcutta woOI--grown in Ilindostan, is a.
bout as coarse as the Crimea, but rather shorter,
These are the ouly kinds of imported woods which
we have seen that cannot be grown in the United
States, and against which our wool growers do not
demand a positive protection by at least a duty of
fifty per cent. on the foreign involve.
