THE TARIEF.

WooL-Wool, we are happy to inform our
friends in the country, is rising. A quantity was
sold in this city yesterday for 3s cents cash.
Wool of the same quality was sold previous to
the passage of the Tariff bill for rs cents. There
has therefore been rise of so per cent already in
the value of the great staple and as the wooden
manufacturers all over the country are in full OPP
Grafton to the extent Of their power, it may reason,
ably be anticipated that wool will continue to rise
until the next clip comes to market 1t should
also be observed. the present rise has taken place
in the face of an increased Western production OIL

The increase in the quantity Of wool shipped
Eastward from Pittsburg alone in l843, over
that shipped in 1912 is l,25O,00O lbs. The in
crease in the amount received at Albany and
Troy in ls43 over 1912 is 100000 lbs. max
ing an increase of 425O,OOO lbs. in the amount
shipped from the West by the Pennsylvania and
N. Y. canals Had it not been for the increased
production of Western wool, there can be no doub
that wool would now bring in this market consider

THE Foul LIBEL UPON THE DEAp-Our

ago went the round ofthe Loce Foco press !, to the
effect that upon his death bed, the late Hon. Charles
Ogle of Pennsylvania, confessed tina, the charge
OF extravagance and malconduct which he made
against the Executive department Of the Govern.
mentin his celebrated speech while member Of the
House of Representatives were entirely false: and
that he fully retracted them and expressed sor-
row for having made them. The slanderous ru-
mour was promptly denied by the surviving friends
Of Mr. OGLE and was traced by them to one George
W. Bowmam, of Somerset, Pa He was imme-
mediately indicted for libel, and, as we see by
the Bedford Inquirer ofhe 9th was tried last week
before Judge Black, and found GUILTY. The
same paper adds that the Infamous scoundrel, who
was thus convicted of having put falsehood into
the mouth of the dead for the basest party purpo-
ses acas Immediately pardoned by Con Porter,
There is nothing after ALL in this which need sur
prise any one; for Porters official character has
long been black enough to eclipse egyptian dark
ness. The patron and his client are certainly
well matched. We are tempted 10 hope that
they may hang together-N. Y. Courier
