GREEN LET ME SEE! Yrs, GREEN IT SHALL BE. We see from the following, which We clip from the Kentucky Gazette, that good old Mr Fre- linghuysen got into the same box that the woman did with the pail of milk on her head which we read of in Webster's spelling book. Doubtless the old man enjoyed all the luxury of being Vice President, for short time. His joy was short lived however, like the poor woman's sweet antcipations of figuring in the new green gown! Alas! alas !.

MANUFACTURES OF RHODE IsLAND.-The extension of the manufactures in this country forms one of the most remarkable and in- structive portions ol its history. In 1910 the manufactures of Rhode Island, as ascertained by the census of that year, were as follows : twenty-six cotton mills, containing 26,O30 spindles, two wolen mills, containing 246 spindles; twenty-five fulling mills; twenty four carding machines; four thousand five hundred and sixty-fye looms, principally in families; two paper hangings manufactures :; one snuff mill; two sugar refneries one salt works; one brass foundry; nine rope walks :; twenty-eight saw mills; twelve water mills For making machinery, two for grinding bark and one for dressing leather; twelve rum dis tlleries three gin dstlleres; one steel fur mace; two iron works; three forges two bloomeres; seven air furnaces one sitting mill thirty-three trip hammers; one screw manuactory and six cut nail manulactories. The amount of cotton cloth made annually was ,, Il ,729, and the average price was 40 cents a yard. The total value of articles manufactured Tn the State, was S2,847, ,629. What contrast does this present to the pre- sent condition of manufactures in Rhode Is- land. The number of cotton factories now exceeds two hundred. Several of the estab- llshments contain more spindles than the to- tai number in l8l0 The amount invested in manufactures of various kinds in this State. exceeds ten millions of dollars, and the ex- ports from Narragansett Bay exceed thirty millions of dollars annually.

 INFAMOUS.

The Boston Courier asserts that there was flag borne ill the great loco procession in New Y ork before the late election, with this
 inscription: ''Americans Shan't rule us.''-- It turns out that the flag in question was got up by Wings, painted by Wings, and car rled by Wings, at the tale of the Democratic procession, for the purpose of irritating the Native party. Thus these Wings perpetra- ted the vlllainy and then lay the blame upon the Democrats. But the motto on the flag was of such character, that nobody could mistake its origin. The Wings wished to create belief that the motto expressed the sentiments of the Irish and other naturalized citizens-when the real offence of the nat uralized citizens was their zeal for the elec- ton of those eminent Americans POLK and DALLAS. What an absurdity for them to say ''Amerleans shan't rule us," when they were doing every thing in their power to place those two Americans in the highest of fees in the country. An Mister Koon, you are generally pretty cunning; but in this m- stance you had the bad luck to get your tail cut of.
