Here is shown an advance, under the operation of
the Tariff, of more than so per cent on American
wool, in the New-York market. Boston market
will give nearly the same result; and the country
markets too. Our readers know there has been an
advance here and to show how it has been in an
other section in Vermont, we give the following;
"Ihe Black Tmif"-19,000 pounds of wool
were sold at Weathersfeld Bow, VT, on Monday
last at forty five cents per pound, cash on the nall
Two years ago the same lot OF wool could not have
been sold for thirty cents What say the wool
growers of Vermont and New Hampshire to this
evidence of the good effects produced by the oper-
atoms of the Tariff? Will you believe the Loco
foco editors when they tell you that the manuactu-
rer is the only one benefited by it and that 1t Is
calculated to make the "rch richer and the poor
poorer" We think not Every person, (uness
wfuy ignorant) knows that in proportion as the
farming interest hourishes, business Of every des
cription will improve, the wages Of the mechanic
be increased, and the master workman and journey
man be equally benefited ClremoniEdgle, Feb 4
| Here is, then, an advance of so per cent in the
price of wool. In other words, while the 100000
lbs. of wool which Vermont annually produces
would bring only about one million Of dollars I'M
der loco tariff, it would under the Wing tariff
bring a million and half in the same market Is
half million of dollars year nothing to the WOOL
growers Dare our Locofoco electioneerers long
er take the stump and proclaim that the Tariff is
good for nothing-that the wool-growing interest
has been sacrficed--that wool would not and could
not advance under it /? How much have the farm
ers of Washington County-aye, of Vermont

the advanced price of wool under the Tarf-and

editors, or the Locofocos
We put these facts on record let them be pom
