Does the Chicago Democrat think Wis
consin needs such democratizing as would
result from changing the U. S. officers in the
territory. 1t may be very natural opinion
for one who sees no virtue in any political
action but such as results in the 'sPoils,
to entertain, but people in this territory ge'
morally. get their democracy from other mo-
tives and hold it on a different tenure. So
far as Gov. Doty is concerned, if John Tyler
will not remove him in virtue of his known
character, the people can wait until honest
men are placed at the head of affairs. The
people, we take il, are not prepared to pledge
their faith TO John Tyler for flvors of this
character.

trouble to think-all men who understand
little of the general relation Of cause and
effect-know very we'll that the business
of a country cannot be rendered more ac-
tive by clogging it with monopolies. by
breaking up its customary arrangements,
and by rendering part Of its capital useless.
and dverting the res: to new purposes
These are all causes Of loss, Of discourage
meni and OF inaction, and all Of these are
TO be found in the new tariff.
That with this burden wantonly and OPP
pressively cast upon it. the commerce of
the country should revive and give promise
of still greater activity only proves the ex-
tent Of the resources which our country
possesses. and the ingenuity aud industry
of our people.

From the ". Y Ere. Post.
THE CAUSE OF THE REVIVAL OF
RJISTNESS

We have seen, in certain journals, the
present revival of business ascribed IL the
tariff which was passed year and a half
ago. According to these political econo-
msts. the country has just began TO feel the
benefi .ial effect of the high duties imposed
by the benevoIence ofCongress. That our
trade has grown more active, say they, is
owing to the letters which have been fas-
tened upon it. They are of that school who
believed that the more weight man carries
the faster he is able to run.
1t is true that tariff. imposing most ex-
orbitant duties, has been passed, and it is
true also, that, after a period Of extreme
depression. succeeding the adoption Of the
tariff, business has somewhat revived. But
it does not follow that, because the tariff
was previous in point of time. that it was
therefore the cause Of the activity which
we now witness. The countryman who
believed that Newing,on steeple was the
cause of Goodwin Sands, because the seeple
was first built and then the sands began to
encroach on the sea, was a logiclan OF
the same class with these friends of the
tariff.
Tho truth Of the matter is, that such re-
vival of business as we have, is not in con-
sequence Of the tariff. but in spite of it
The tariff was imposed at time when a
severe commercial depression, owing to
various causes, which it is not necessary
here TO enun,era,e, was upon the country
The tarffrendered the depression still more
severe, breaking up, as it did, the existing
commercial arrangements, checking impor
tations, and throwing upon the agriculture
interest the whole expense Of our shipping
which carried their surplus produce TO for
eign countries, and brought nothing back
But, with the great resources oil our coun
TRY and the enterprise and industry of on
citizens, the depression of business coul
not last forever. We knew that men mus
buy and sell, and consume, and toll, an
give and receive wages, and form and exc
cute plans of business, which wonld ca
forth these resources and employ this enter
prise. The depression went on, however
until il had reached its lowest point-a low
: err one, doubtless, than if the tariff had new
er passed-and now the reaction, SO Ion
Iforetold and waited foe, has commenced

A State Agricultural Fair, was recently
held at Rochester, N. Y. According to &C
counts, it was the greatest affair of the kind
on record. Many Of our great men were
present-Mr. Van Buren,, Daniel Webster,
and others. Several speeches appropriate to
the occasion were made. Every variety of
article-the product of the soil, the loom,
handiwork of every description, stock, &c,
were there exhibited, and the exhibition was
highly satisfactory to all who felt an interest
in the development ofour resources. These
exhibitions cannot be otherwise than very
beneficial in their character. By the spirit
ofemulation excited, the progress of improve
ment in every department, is rapid.

The first apple we have seen raised in the
Territory, was presented to us last week by
Mr.. William Stanley, who picked it from a
tree on his farm, in Pleasant Prairie. 1t was
a fine specimen of the winter apple and had
good flavor. 1t is evidence of what can
be done in this particular; and it is a matter
of surprise TO us that the raising of this kind
of fruit, and indeed fruit of most kinds, is
not more generally embarked in than it is.
