letter dated Oct. LIST, in Harrison county, Ohio.
The writer is a personal friend of the Editor:
"One of the most wicked was committed
last week that ever heard Of There was a Wing
meeting held at ST. CairsvilIe and there being no
spring near the spot, wafer was conveyed there in
casks. Into one of the casks was put quantity
of arsenic, OF which more than two hundred per-
drank before the alarming fact was known.
Three men and one wenan have since died, and
physician told neighbor OF mine yesterday that
there were within his knowledge one hundred and
sixty persons aboring under the effects of The poi

Canada 1t seems that the question respecting
the location for the seat of government Of Canada
is in the way of being decided by an event not at
first anticipated. Kingston has been found to
possess a climate unlavorable to the health OF the
Governor General which, in his present state of
physical debility, will probably induce his excel.
lency to remove his establishment either to Mon

But the question may be asked how does il hap
pen that the price of Buenos Ayres wool is now
so low?
I. is quoted in the Boston market at from to
10 cents. The answer is, that what remains for
sale is probably of the poorer qualilles-was pur
chased during the blockade, at low prices, and
imported free of duty, and is sold without profit,
if not ut loss The general causes which
have depressed The price of our own wool have

have thus far restricted mysellto the consider
alton of the tariff as protective against low priced
foreign wools-and more particularly against those
from I}uenos Ayres. ! will add further that il is
most probable, under the present tariff, that none
but coar:e wool will be imported from that place
in the state heretofore imported, hut will be first
cleansed The three pounds of foul wool wlll be
reduced to one pound of cleansed wool-ta avoid
the 3 per cent. duIy-payng II on one pound in"
stead of paying it on three pounds-This wool,
however, will never he equal in value 10 ours, or
other foreign wool of the same fneness. tits not

The fine woods imported from Europe and Aus
:ralia, into our ports, were entered IN lS4O, at from
| 33 to "a cents per pound. The heeces, however,
! are cleaner and closer trimmed than ours. The
| price compared with our wool as washed on the
foreign value. This, with cents for charges oil
importation and profit, and IL cents for duties
would make the price here AZ cents, or, without u
profit, 43 cents.
Such, in my view, is the effect of the tariff Of
the last session. Yet il does not do all that in my
| Judgment, ought to be done. This country pro
