THE TARIFF AS IT IS'-PRO-
lection TO WOOL.

We, last week, made few remarks up
on the "new cry" Of the federalists, "the
reduction of the Tariff"
1t will not, we presume, be forgotten,
that from the outset we have contcnded
that the effect of the present Tariff,would
be to fiji the pockets of the manufacturer
a, the expense ofthe wool-grower. For
assuming this position we have been pretty
bountifully abused by the wing papers in
the State, which are all under the control
Of the manufacturing interests. Last
year, the bad effects of the Tariff which
began partially, to be felt by the WOOL
growing interest, it was asserted by the
Manufacturers andthose in their interests,
we're produced, not by the Tariff, but, by
the fears entertained on their part that the
Tariff wouM be repealed 1t was by rea-
son Of this fear, so they said, that they
would pay price no higher for wool
Well, the Tariff was not disturbed
Round, in due course Of time, Comes
l845--the great panacea for all erils, the
Tariff of 40, is II, full blast AND WOOL
IS LOWER THAN EvER!!
Now, this is precisely the state Of things
that the manufacturers desire Under the
Tariff Of '42 they have been manufac-
turing, in the heart Of Vermont, FOR
E[GN WOOL of a grade as fine as what
we call "ou. course WOOL" which wool
comes into the country duty free under
1.-The Tariff as it is, "and which costs them
at their factories % per pound, at the
same time that by ''the tariff as it is,
woollen goods manufactured of wool of
the same quality is taxed 40 per cent
Now, we repeat this is just such state
Of things as the wings desired and calcu-
lated upon. They have stocked them
selves out of the 100000 pounds Of
their foreign wool that they have been
manufacturing, here, IN Vermont, the last
year, purchased for % the pound,
TO such an extent ,ha, they do
not need anything like the native
CHIP ofwool for '45!--consequen'ly, the
price Of natirc wool being regulated by
the demand, and the demand being imi-
ted to just enough to supply the wants Of
the manufacturers over and above their
foreign stock, is just what they have a
mind to pay! They do not want a large
portion of the nativc clip, for its place is
already supplied by foreign wool, and as
this foreign stock enables them to keep their
machinery in operation at any rate, they
are to great extent, Independent, Of our
wool and are able to fix just such price
upon it as their cupidity may dictate, and
our wool-grower must take it, or let it
rot on his hands!
But, although this is precisely what the
wings want, yet, the true cause must not
be known,--ths wool-growers must be
humbugged still fur,her-aud so they
publish, by their papers, and by their run
ners, that the reason ghy then cauf nan n
higher price for ,rool is that they fear
that the TARIFF WILL BE REDUCED" AND
with this wretched falsehood they hope
to deceive the people Of this state another
year.
We attor;':sd to show last week, that
IL the sm 'n'as quantity Of foreign vool,
imported into The country duty free, under
this Tariff and manufactured under the

crue to the people Of the state and those
too, on the gerry line Tie Road, is what
they will get for their land and tor their
produce that the "foreign paupers" will
consume, the Waterman has the lmpu-
dence TO tell the people that the abstrac-
ton Of a million of capital from the Grand
list of the State will all be made up by ex-
pending the two millions in the State which
it costs to build The road! Impudence be-
yond a parallel! What will this Watch
man presume to force down the throats Of
the people NEXT
1t may be asked, why we attack this
charter Of the Central Railroad. We an
swer, not because we are opposed to Rail
roads. The fever is up and we could not
if we would check it. Let it run-but we
are writing about this central charter be-
cause it is too abominaby wicked to be
allowed to disgrace the laws of the State,
and we say that all the Railroad charters
IN the State should be reconstructed and
the same facilities granted to them all or
the obnoxious feature of the Central char
ter should be repealed. The people Of
this State should send men to Montpelier
who will repeal the clause of that charter
which exemp's its stock from taxation IN
five minutes after the Legislature Is organ
lied A thing SO UNANIMOUSLY unjust
should not live moment after the people
Can get their hand on its throat. 1t is
''grevance," and an enormous one, that
should be redressed by whatever means, and
it pW Je,o the people of Vermont are no,
what they have the reputation Of being.

The following table shows the amount
of coarse wool imported:

1t is admitted by ALL that under the tar
if admitting wool coslidg 8 cents and I'M
der, free OF duty there was gross frauds
committed, so that little or no protection
was given TO the wool-growors Of Vermont
and it is very evident that under the pres
ent tariffthe same frauds and will be COM
mitted, as prophesied by Mr. Benton
The large importation last year accounts
for the depression of prices last fall; and
it is feared that the same cause will pro-
duce the same effect to keep down the
prices the present season. The WOOL
growers can make no calculation wheth-
cr to hold on for higher prices or not
Had Mr. Benton's or Mr. Wright's amend.
ment prevailed the woo!-growers would
have had all the protection they could
have reasonably asked But as it s,they
have been humbugged by parade of pro-
visions which are Of no effect TO protect
their interests.
Now, ii is as plain that what the WOOL
growers have to fear is that the Tariff OF
'42 will NOT be amended as it is that what
the manufacturers have to fear, is, that it
miN be. The cry of the manufacturers
is all for Self-for while they are
making yearly dividends of 80 and so per
cent. they must be fools if they do not
wish the same state orthings TO continue,
and while the farmers see their own wool
thrown out of market or cut down to 80
cents the pound by foreign wool imported
under this Tariff, duty free, they must be
blind, indeed if they do wish this state of
things to continue.
Let the wool grower Judge for himself
if something is not wrong. The manufac-
turers who purchase his wool divide year
ly ,on their capital from 80 along to 40 per
cent. and large portion is kept back
with which mills are built Sc, and yet
they say they cannot pay but from % to
80 cents per pound for wool' Why is it ?
They say they have no confidence that
the Tariff will not be reduced! They have
had the same no-con6dence disorder for
the last three or four years and they con-
'rive to grow fat on it. A strange dsor-
DER raging fearfulIy among the manufac-
turers, the evil effects of which are felt
alone among the wool-growers! We ap-
peal to the wool-growers if this strange
sickness has not been ravaging the systems
of the manufacturers for years, and if 1t
is ne, an anomaly in the history OF disease
es that those who are suffering grow fat
and healthy We told you last year that
you would hear the same "cry" this; and
so it is. How is all this? Will you open
your eyes' VIII you read and under
stand?

Col. CnuRcHILL.-The Washington
Union accounts as follows for the dismissal.
Of Col Churchill from the office of lnspec-
tor General of the Army, circumstance
exhibiting hard course towards a gal
liant officer, who had so long, so faithfully
and SO honorabIy served his country
We hope the President will not be nm
mindlu! of his claims TO consideration
No one at all acquainted with Col.
Churchill, doubts his merits: and all who
know the circumstances his case, ad.
nit that it is a hard one. But i! any one,
from the above remarks, should infer that
the administration is censurabe for dis
charging him, they do it great injustice.
The Legislation of Congress required the
discharge Of one OF the two Inspectors
General. Coils. Croghan and Churchill
both gallant otIicers-both highly merit.
orous on account Of having rendered their
country signal service. Col. Croghan was
the eldest Inspector General, and his re-
tention rendered this discharge Of COL
Churchill indispensably necessary by the
act Of Congress. We are quite certain
that the executive highly appreciates his
character, aud will not be unmndful Of
his claims to consideration.

Mr. Clay in his speech at TayIorsyilIe,
Virginia, in 1910, discourses as follows:
The fact Of his (Harrson's) election.
without reference 10 the measures of his
administration, will powerfully contribute
to the security and happiness Of the people.
1t will bring assurance of the cessation of
that long series of desola:ing experiments
which have so greatly afflicted the people.
Confidence will Immediately revive, credit
be restored. active business will return,
prices of products will rise"
According to the Louisville Journal, Mr.
Clay was fool! Prentice ought forth
with to split for the Mammoth Cave Just
read the following which the Journal pub
lshed the other day:
"The truths, that every man, not Loco
loco knows that the mere fact of the success
of particular man in the race for the Pres
dency cannot in the very nature Of things,
in itself seriously effect the condition of
any sort Of business; and no whig suppos-
ed that simply because small majority of
votes were given in tie United States for
Mr. Polk, the business of the nation was 10

we're not such fools as to ascribe such vast
results to the accidental elevation OF any
man, though the Locoiocos are verdant
enough TO believe that the wings looked
upon the matter in that way"

fools as to ascribe to the accidental cleo
ton of Mr. Polk the SERIOUS condition"
