How 1T BENEFITS THE FaRMER.--A
farmer from Albany county informed US,
yesterday, that rye had fallen nine cents
per 5usheisince the election. This is the
way Folks administration Is to benefit
the farmer.
10 addition to the above we also learn
that the stock Of tho Amoskeag (N. II. J
Manufacturing Company has declined
forty per cent, and the Merrimack Com.
pany, Lowell, zen per cent, since assur.
ance Of Mr.. Folks election. The great
decline in the former is partly owing TO
the fact that the Company have been
building largely, and The suPposition that
this increase oil building will now be
comparatively usals IS. l--N. y. Express.
Seventy hands have been discharged
from large Tsnaery in Bofalo, since
the election.
The Philadelphia Gazette, OF Thursday
evening. says:--"We have heard Of sew
eral enterprises beng abandoned on &C
count of the result of the election, aud
some Of our manufacturing establishment:
have thought it pruden, 10 contrac, their
operations. Statements of this kind vii
be seized upon fnr Misrepresentation, bu
the lacts remain stubborn. We IRE in.
formed that manufacturers who had or.
dered machinery, to be constructed II
this city, have in some cases countefman
ded their orders. Many vorkmen vii
necessarily be discharged"
