Miiierism at lis Gilman

which the world was TO be DESTROYED,
the excitement accordingly reached its
climax at the Time designated. For
several DAYS before ii had been rising
in intensity. Parents deserted their
families, people closed their stores,
gave away their goods, threw their
vatuabtes into the streets, and were
guilty ofevery species Of widness and
insanity that could we'll be inim agined
SO much so. indeed, that in some cases,
the aid ofthe police had TO be inv oked
to preserve the peace. On Monday the
great body Of these deluded people
went forth into the open country to DO

come upon them The hills on The
SchuylkilI were selected by m my, and
a number Of encampments or biyoucks
were TO be seen within the range of a
few miles, where the utmost excite
ment was exhibited. The night bow

generally without food or shelter: and
as the natural consequence Of such ex-
posture, the following day found great
numbers overcome by indlsposition.-

The Cincinnati Gazette the other day, yentu-
red some assertions by way of pulling coarse
wool over the farmers eyes. In reply, we took
the kinks out of the editors wool. We showed
that his assertions were utterly devoid of truth.
We showed this upon the authority of an article
taken from a correct and valuable agricultural
paper Now the Gazctt6 had charged us with
lfalsehood, and seemed to think we would stick
to our falsehood. We have PROVED the Gazette
guilty of falsehood, and the public can now see
the tenacity with which that print clings to its
mistatements.
Fhe matter is in a nutshell, and the reader
Twill understand it at glance. The constant
argument of the taxationists for protection,
when told that all kinds of farm products have
gone under the operation of the tariff about 30
to 40 per cent, while all that the farmer has TO
buy has gone up in the same ratio,-the constant
argument and reply is, Oh, wooli WOOL! wool!!!
1t is absolutely ludcrous 10 see Mr. CARRY
shake his bushy locks and vociferate Doolt Now
in the first place it IS not true that wool is high
er now than under the Compromise Act, The
prices Of wool in the leading market Of New
/ York were actually higher in 1S40 than they are
now! In the second place if it were true that
wool had appreciated since The Tariff Of '42,-it
would nevertheless not be true that protection
had effected this-because the ordinary wool o.
the country sleft absolutely unprotected, The
lprovision in that bill is as follows:
Son coarse wool, unmanutactured, the value
Whereof at the last port or place ,oheace export
ed to the United States, shall be Seuen cents o
under per pound, there shall be levied duty o
Y fire per cent ad valorem.
This provision, we have conclusvely shown

the ordinary wool of this country can be applied
, mere nominal duty--a duty of only five pc
