and now at about So per cent. The present
depressed price of wool is owing more 10 the
decrease of consumption by home manufac'
lures, than the importation of the foreign sta
pie. The only thing wanting to be perfectly
satisfactory, is the admission of foreign wool
by no means necessary to the success OF the
home manufacturer, and resulting IN the fraud

SENATOR PRENTIss.-By the letter from
this gentleman, to the senate and subsequent
proceeding it VII be seen that Mr.. Prentiss,
has resigned the Office Of senator and been ap-
pointed Judge of the District of Vermont, in
the place of til, Hon. Elijah Paine, who has
resigned. No man of the present generation
has secured to himself more honorable rep
rotation, or a stronger hold upon the esteem of
his associates and the respect of The nation for
the patriotism, firmness, and moderation with
which he has discharged the duties of his dig
nified station than Nlr. Prentiss. We have
not seen the report of the sentiments expressed
by senators in the floor upon reading the letter
Of resignation. But they were said to be
those of warm attachment and esteem for those
virtues as citizen and senator which have so
signally marked the public and private life of
our worthy Re ,resentativc.

SUSPENSION OF MANUFACTURES. We learn
from different sources that several manufac tor

of operatives will be thrown out of employ
