WOOL IN THE WEST.

We have already intimaled our opinion that
the wool growers of the North should moi
be 10 much alarmed by the representations
of great competitor in the West; and we re-
peat the advice while we give the annexed
article That Western Wool may now pay
as well as any other article oftheir product
ion, may be true; yet if the west rush into
the business. the competition will soon bring
their wool 10 prices nh at will not pay as
other productions. The Prairie Farmer of
this month, printed at Chicago, gives this
account of the wool business in the west:
"Last year a few hundred pounds Of
wool were shipped from this place, this year
we find there have been shipped, to this
date, (ihe 10Th Of Aug.) over 10000 lbs.
This may be considered the commence.
ment of our exports Of this important staple;
and We predict that only five years hence it
will amount to hundreds of tons, and in
fiftees years TO thousands OF tons.
Imported as are other articles Of agri
cultural produce, wheat, beef, hemp, io5ac-
co, butter. cheese. &c-w vet consider
wool and pork as the great stables oe- the
west, and nearly and if not quite equnl in
value TO all other articles of export com
bined. We consider them 81, because
their is no portion of the globe better adapt
ed TO their production; because the expense
of producing them is less here than in any
other section of the Union, for thew can be
delivered IN The eastern markets al loss ex'
pense Including transportation. than the
eastern formers can possibly afford them:
because the expense of Transportation is less
per cent. upon their value Than uron other
ARTICLES for which there is any very extern
sive demand and bacause OF the almost un'
limited market there is for them.

POLITICAL SABBATH BREAKING
From the Commercial Advertiser

GERRIr SMlTH.-Since the publication
OF al article in relation TO this gentleman
we have received The original circular which
Mr.. Smith sent through his county, announ-
cling his intention of devotipg his Sabbath
to preaching politics." and also letter
from him explaining his motives in doing
this, and the character of the meetings he
holds.
! Such meetings, it seems, are held every
Sabbath in Madison county, and parts ada
cent, and are to be held in the hope of rev.
oluiionizing the politics of the people, until

securing votes at The election. for political
Candidate. The hearing of religion truth,
the religious education of the rising genera
lion, The gradual elevation Of the standard of

winds as subjects of no importance when
compared with the immediate abolition of

wrong, well doing and ill.doing are TO be
measured and marked BY the rules and COM
passes of an anti slavery theology.
Now, while we are willing TO accord 10
Gerrit Smith all sincerity and honesty of

cannot refrain from expressing toward that
course our unqualified condemnation. No

4 BANK REPUBLICAN MEAsURE.--Mr.
McDufIie. in his celebrated r-por, of 1880.
held the following language about the late
Bank and the Congress which incorporated
it:
I" 1t may be said without disparaaemeni
that an assembly of higher talent and purer
patriotism has never existed. since the days
of The Revolution, than the Congress BY
which the present Bank was incorporated
If ever political party existed of which ii
might truly be said that AL the elds they
aimed at were their couniry's.' it was THE
REPUBLICAN PARTY of-that day.
They had just conducted the country through
the periIs OF war waged in defence of her
rights and homo, and, elevating their views
far above The narrow and miserable ends OF
party strife, sought only 10 advance the per.
mnncnt happiness of the people. II was 10
THIS GREAT END THAT THEY
