MORE GOOD SENSE.

The Legislature has given another in
stance of good sense, in resolving to receive
the States share of the proceeds of the U.
States land moneys, and placing il in the
Treasury for the use of the genera! fund.
The worthy Treasurer will be relieved from
all further difficulty in this matter, and be
materially aided in answering the warrants
of the Comptroller. A little s,raight-for-
ward common sense is, after all, more
valuable qualification for legislator than
all the political ranscendentalism of The
times and it is better for the people. in
times like the present, that the public ex-
penses TO the amount of some fourscore
thousands and upwards, by their just share
of money voluntarily paid for public lands,
than by hard earned cash collected by the
tax-gatherer.

Senator Hunter was the channel by
which the address was introduced to the
caucus, and it was read by. Senator Ely {:

submitted by Mr. Hubbard of the Assembly,

party of the State of Tennessee, Missouri,

DEATH BY DROWNING.

1t becomes our painful duty to record the
death of very worthy follow citizen, Mr.
Altah English and his son about 10 years
old, who were drowned last week in Otter
Creek. The stream was very high, over.
flowing the low lands on the farm of the
deceased. For the purpose of securing his
fences he had constructed raft upon which
he and his son had embarked. The only
witness of the distressing scene, was a man
at work on the opposite side of the Greek
who saw them upon the raft, and soon af-
ter in the Creek raising piercing cry fol
help, which being impossible they disap
peared, and nothing more was seen of them
Diligent search has ever since been making
for the bodies, which as yet have not been
rescued from the watery element. MIR En-
glish was respectable member Of the meth
odist church, about 40 years old. and has
left a wife and seven small children to
mourn the death of husband and father.

ford who is suspected Of using South Amer
lean wool in Middlebury.
Il am not aware that any South American
rool has ever been worked in Middlebury
As minated by your correspondent, 5. w.
J.. in the hight of his imagination. That
10 which he refers as South American, was
\ lot of Eastern wool. The difference is
yery great. 10 the fall of le4l our wool
was held firm by the growers al 371 10 Az
cts. per pound, which was at least l 5 cents
oer pound above what the manufacturer
could pay, and take his goods to market
TO remedy this stale Of things one of two
expedients must be resorted 10. Either the
factory must stop or cheaper stock be found.
In this case 1900 lbs. of Eastern wool
comparing in quality with our native WOOL
was bought in New York al IA GEMS per
pound, costing $3.50 dollars, and produced
5000 yards Of good strong cloths, which
sold in market for 2,4O0 dollars, showing
on entire loss of the transportation both
ways, The commission, interest, insurance,
charges and all ofihe manufacturing except
$50, and 80 wards Of the cloth (Which was
sold al the factory. and proved TO be very
superior goods for service, possessing the
servicable quality of worsted goods more
Than our wool makes.) This loss was
probably as great finally as it would have
been on the same amount of goods made
from our wool. The shrinkage on the foreign
was so great, rs you may see in this case,
that 600 lbs. of our wool would produce as
much cloth as 1900 of the foreign.
In regard TO South American wool wish
simply 10 remark for the present, that il is
clear 10 me that your correspondent as well
as MANY others in this vicinity are enter
tanning misconcieved ideas as it respects
South American woods coming in compe-
tlion with our own, and thereby reducing
the value of ours. The truth is that, in the
first place, there is but trifing amount of
wool brought from that country that viii
make any kind of full cloth or flannel
Hence the use of the article must be, and
is, confined 10 The manufacture OF carpets,
negro cloths, and 2esro blankets. all of
which kinds of goods consume in their
manufacture so large an amount Of stock,
and are required TO be sold so low, that none
but this coarse, cheap, South American
wool can be afforded for these goods and
as this class of manufacturers do but just
live with all the advantage they have from
this cheap wool, you drive them to the ne
cessly of using any wool sufficiently valua-
bic 10 make full cloths, or any wool as val
uable as the coarsest and cheapest that is
raised in New England, and you will
find that instead of forcing upon them the
sale of our cheap wool in place OF South A.
merican, you have instead Of this driven
them 10 humiliation. Where then will be
the benefit resulting 10 our wool growers
bv the exclusion Of this wool from our
couatry! answer none, but much other
wise unless we can ourselves furnish simi-
lar article equally cheap, which none pre-
tend.
