We understand that many of the Abotonlsts OF
this section of the State who have formerly acted with
the third party avow their intention to vote for John
Mattocks next September In this they wise, for
there is not in New England more staunch and true

closed the letter his constituents, last January, an
nouncing his intention not be candidate for Con-
gress another term with the following noble sent-
ment:
Finally, may the wise being, who controls the
destiny Of nations protect and perpetuate free in
situations: and may the God of Heaven hasten the
time when Slavery shall exist only in the internal re
gons, where it originated, and where is inflicted for
crime, and not for color. JOHN MAIIOCNS.

Affairs in Ireland seem TO be still in very excited
condition land serious riots had broken out in
Wales. O'Connel is addressing large meetings in

idea of the state of things there:
MrO'ConneI had demonstration at Ennis, for
the country of Clare, thursday, the 9Th ut and
the meeting is described as more numerous than any
that preceded 1.-THE numbers stated at 700 OO0!
The Limerick Chronicle, which makes pretensons to
being very precise, estimates the number at not less
than $50, 600, including about 5000 horsemen; and
says that the cavalcade of cars extended from Ennis
to Newmarket-six miles. The preparations for his
reception most elaborate: the enterance to the
town 'aohole trees acre planted," with triumphal
arches across the road, notices. and devices. "On
entering Upper Goal Street from Limerick, You be-
held nothing but planted trees. with triumpha arch
es'' The inscriptions, in apparently not in
tended to be doggrel, were praise Of O'Connell and
freedom, and abuse Of "the Saxon tyrants''
Tn Of his late addresses the Irish orator
said:
f'Let me tell you, that the Ministry have been
employed lately in deep debates upon the state of
Ireland; that division reigns among them. / may
venture to assure that coercive measures will not be

the timely interference Of the authorities, in calling
out the troops, the most dreadful results mig have

stones &c) marched up to the several other houses
where the Orangemen were dining, and at the corner
of Clergy and Brock streets, shot Robert Morrison

died instantly, and the coroners jury is holding
inquest over his body. The troops being marched up
Princess and Clergy streets, for the protection of that
part of the city, were fired on by the assassins, by

sCJsThe Star Editors seem not well pleased with
the recent Wing Conventions at Danville. They are
the first from whom we have heard complaints. For
ourselves were highly pleased not only with the
numbers, but with the spirit and good ceiling exhlb
tied, and do not apprehend altogether why the Star
should growl so loudly on the OCCASION unless it be
that gentleman who has fought many years a.
gainst the Wings came into the Convention, made a
speech, and announced that he should vote for 'hon

not for going any longer for Northern men with
Southern principles, and, furthermore, that he
a Republican and that the Wings stood on the same
ground that the Republicans once occupied, and
he was for consistency and principle in politics.

think their conduct did deserve the the

WoOL-THE EFFECT OF THE TARIFF UPON
ITS IMPORTATION.

We offer no apology for the large space occupied
by the lengthy article upon this subject in days pa
per. There is not a man, woman or child in the
State who is not directly indirectly interested in
the matters treated Of in the aforesaid article Wool
is, nai is hereafter TO be, the great staple Of Vermont
pm interest inferior to none other. If it's produce
lion is made profitable the farmer is the first to be
benefited, and every other class of people connected
in anywse with him, IN a degree proportionate to the
intimacy Of the connection.
Rea1-we say to every man-READ this expose,
and remember the figures they come from the Gus
tom House Records. They show that the recent
Tariff is doing to check imporations of foreign
wool into this country than its friends ever dared to
suppose it would do. 1t is accomplishing wonders for
the country, especially for Vermont
For year two before this Tariff went into ope-
ration the importations of Wool nearly equal to
the consumption of the article by our manufacturers
hence, when the tariff did take effect one or two
years stock of American or domestic wool remained
nand in the markets, and in the hands of the pro-
ducers, waiting rise from the depression produced
by the large importations-and now that stock re.
mains partially unconsumed, and therefore the slow
rise Of the price Of wool: but did the tariff
take effect than the downward tendency Of the value
of wool checked, and has been slowly but
y lettering since; and now, in the face of the
new clip it has risen few cents per pound within the
last 2 days
Again. we say, read the article. And, do not let
any neighbor be passed by without the privilege Of
reading it. 1t contains facts from the fountain head
and every man should know them; now, especially
the locofoco demagogues, in order to cry down the
tariff, trying to deceive the people upon this sub
Iceland to rally them against Protection to American
Industry, under the banner either of the ''norhern
man with southern principles of John C. Calhoun.
