a Sum worth Saving.

The Waterman in answering the apologies of the
Montpelier Patriot for the increased value of WOOL
makes the following statement which shows some OF
the fruits of the new Tariff realized by Vermont:
"But it is high time to avert to the big gun Of the
Patriot. Admit the decreased importations-admi,
all-says chat paper, yet what miserable pittance
does wool now bring. compared to the prices under
jackson and Van Buren,! Surely it ia miserable in
comParison--but not so miserable pinance as this
same Pan Buren left to the ,rool-gro,cers, and
which his party attempted fasten upon them orev-
er. This is the point: has the Tariff Improved the
prices which Pan Buren, lsft9 We have shown that
it has; every woo-grower, indeed knows that it has,
The Tariff found prices in Vermont ranging from %
to % cents-averagng perhaps rs, it has run ayear,
and prices range from 20 to land in some instances
ss-averaging 80 Here, then, is a clear gain al
ready of 8 cents pound. which single years
clip is a gain to Vermont of -r. .

ga Nut for the IOcos to Crack. ,

TO show that the assertions of the locos about Pro-
lection afforded TO wool all falacous and absurd
we need but to point out one fact
They say tina, foreign wool equal in quality to our
Vernon wool is purchased at price below cents a
pound, md by the Tariff is subject TO only per
cent. duty, amounting, as they say, TO "a mills per
pound duty. Well, suppose then the wool costs 6
cents and mills and pays the "a mills duty, i, will
then he worth not quite cents in market, and
the cos, of freight, say cent pound added makes
it cents pound Now, if this were true, why do
not manufacturers buy this foreign wool instead of
sending agents oil over Vermon, to pay 25 so&35 cts
they have done the past six weeks that there is
scarcely lot be found. Are they SO patriotic
OR nre they so foolish as to pay this price for Yer
mont wool when they could buy foreign wool of the
same quality for eight cents This shows the bare
facedness tho loco!oco humbuggers, their folly and
dishonesty
The Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1837-1867, 1843-08-29
$lS4,66l rs!

In fact the gain is far than this; we think the
quantity already sold this year must be nearly equal
to two clips, and that the actual gain to the farmers
by the operation Of the Tariff on wool alone has very
far exceeded the above sum.
Finally the Patriot thus "sums up the whole
matter"
"To sum up the whole matter: The very manner
in which this wool bought shows that il was the
effect, moi of the tariff, but of combination Of the
manufacturers, or spectators, purchase all, or
nearly ALL the wool in the country, low price, at
once--at blow. Suppose You the tariff could pro-
duce this effect '-could create wool buyers in all
parts OF the country at once' Magical indeed''
That is, the increased demand for wool is all ow-
ing to tho demand rit, But how came he manu-
facturers to make this rush for WOOL and to increase
their prices' Why should they make rush to buy
up the wool Eat low price, at once, at blow ?''-
We can tell the Patriot that it was the Tariff which
revived manufactures and thus created this active de-
mand for domestic wool 1T il the Tariff which has
lessened the foreign mportaous and far compelled
the manufacturers to take the domestic. And we
can also tell that print that if the manufacturers have

THE RIGHT WAY.

Mr.. EDIroR:-Eforts making by some OF my
Anti Slavery friends in this county draw of Wing
abolition votes from Governor Camp, one Of the can
didates for the Senate, which, in my judgment are
wrong Coy Camp early Slate has maintained strict
abolition principles, has gone and does now 60 as far as
any of our friends, and has done more for tho cause
than most any one Of our abolition candidates And
five leave him we do not expect to elect the gen
ueman nominated by some of our party Sd can.
didate for the Senate: and plurality elects, by
voting for him open wide the door to let in the
candidate opposed TO the Wings, and who, for all
ever heard goes with the par that has voted for gag
rules, to suppress petitions and TO oppose human
rights, in every shape. The result, then, in nv
mind, OF voting for third candidate leads TO posi-
b'ty OF the election Of no has no sympathy for
our cause, and whose party in Congress have gone
against us, and against the Northern Wings too, who
must confess have butted noby for human rights,
on the floor of Congress.
Gov. Camp is with us on this question, and my
feelings are with the Wings, for think their political
principles are democratic, and especially favor
the cause of free labor & general prosperity Hence
must advise my Anti-sla very brethren to vote for
an old and steady friend TO cur cause thereby further
correct political principles and especially keep from
our Senate man who has not, to my knowledge, ev-
er uttered an opinion favorable to the cause Of human
rights would not for my right hand vote in way
that would thus indirectly elect an opponent of our
cause, Tor 1t would not be dferen, in the result than
II voted directly for him. but in voting for Gov.
Camp avoid this and help elect an undoubed friend
and so my humble advise is to all my Wing Anti
Slavery friends to do likewise. ALBANY

With Il faithless President, but a faithful Congress-
after a severe and proraced struggle, oil must now
confess that the Wings have so regulated mat'efs
that better days dawuing upon us; aye they are

We are feeling the good influences of things here

will be scattered, and go into the hands Of all classes
the farmer, the mechanic and the man who works
by the month md day, will all share in the good
fruits. Better markets, better prices better wages
