LIE TIMES.

| The accounts almost daily received OF
the closing of large manufacturing cstab.
| Iishments Indicate but too truly the wretch
ed condition of things new existing in the
country Tor want of an efficient Tarib.
Tho labourers thus thrown out of en-
| ployment are suffering under this depres.
sion of business the fear is that the
worst has not yets come. We were as
sured few days ago by an Intelligent
iron manufacturer, that without protec-
tive Tariff not an iron establishment in
the country could stand. Many have
stopped already.
Another indication of the difficulty Of
procuring employment in the present stag
nation OF things may be seen in the re-
turn OF numerous immigrants who had
sought our shores in the hope of lettering
their condition. A late Now York pa
per has the following.
CONG HoME.--FIard times for tho
poor emlgrant. Hundreds are returning
home pcnniless. Two hundred went in
the Virginia last Monday, one hundred
in the Countess of Arran, and over two
hundred will go in the New York to-day.
No work here for them. We advise
those who have money TO 90 TO the West
and purchase farms.
Those who have the means would no
doub, do well to go to the West and pur-
chase larms-and If they cannot purchase
farms let them 60 as laborers. The thou
sands of our own people, however, who
have been discharged from manufactu.
ring establishments are best fitted for that
sort ol'work TO which they have been
trained, and they will look with anxiety
for some change of the times that may
enable them 10 return to their accustomed
occupations. This change can be brought
about only by sound protective Tariff
and IT IS matter of uncertainty when
such Tariff will be had, under the ca
PRECIOUS administration of Mr.. TYLER
The Wings 10 the House of Representa-
tlves have done their part; they have re-
newed their efforts again and again; and
though twice defeated by the Executive
Veto they have returned to the task, and
passed good bill We hope the Senate
will not hold back. Let the President be
tried once more. There must be some
end to the rash temerity which has trilled
too long already with the interests ofthe
people, and turned the constitutional We
10 into n scourgc. - Bal. Amer.

THE STORMY PErREL IN THE NOUN
IAlNS

During the severe storm Of Thursday last, the
visilers at the Berkeley Springs and the inhabi.
tanis were astonishcd By the remarkable appear
uncc of vast number Of STORMY Petrels, otherwise
called Mother CAry's Chickens. They were
doubtless blown in from sea dming the severe
storm of Wednesday and Thursday. The poor
birds were as much amazed and bewildrred as the
people and, we are panied to learn, me. with a
very inhospiabie rcccption-about fifty Of them
having been killed with sticks aud stones while
floating about the Warm Spring run.
The home of this singular bird Isl upon the ocean,
and they rarely seen within fifty mes of the
shore. II is uuy marvellous how they can have
wandered hundred and fifty miles into the inte'
rior.
We understand there is no sort Of doubt as 10
their identity, as they recognized by several
persons who have been familiar with them at sen.
The mountainecrs. though not prepared to testify
as to what they we're, were quite sure what they
rere not, and pronounced them stterly unlike any
of the ieatbered tribe ever before known in their
mountains.

Mr.. CLAY has host OF strong, siaunch
frends--and he has some pouRrING
friends, who think he ought 10 be Presi,
dent, but are afraid he will not reach that
station. These friends, sometimes, do
more harm than they are aware OF, or
than they intend. For ourselves, we
think that he not only ought ~ be, but
certainly ,cH be, President and that all
bis friends, admirers, ani supporters have
to dn, TO accomplish this, is to 5. to work,
from this time forth, rruicniiy, honora-
bly,, but 1ediousiy, TO effect their object.
We are sincere in onr belief, and cur
readers will, we are sure, acknowledge
this sincerity, that nothing ,lss could,
possibly, so BENEFIT THE COUN-
TRY, as the election Of Mr.. Clay. As
for party, that is, comparatively, mise
rabe, a trllling consideration. Throw
party views out OF the question, altogether,
and all unuiejudIced men must admit, that
turaI, mechanical, manufacturing, and
commerciaI, ore deeply concerned IN the
election Of Mr.. Clay. The results Of
State elections, turning unavoidably upon
local questions, in great degree, do not
weaken our confidence, IN the least, that
in the end, these important interests will
unite in the support of the great american
Statesman, who has been, is now, and
will continue 10 be, for his Country first,
his Country last--his Country always
