Boston and Quebec the mercury has already ranged

directly into competition with the wool raised by
our farmers. On the contrary, last year over hir-
teen millions Of pounds Of Smyrna and South Ameri-
can wool have been imported into this country, be-
ing about one-thrd as much as is raised here. This
is fact No 2; and in tins fact the farmers will hnd
one chief reason of the reduction in the price OF
their own wool. The market is flooded. The unnat-
ural advance Of last fall, brought about by manufac-
turers, to operate upon the election stimulated home
production to an undue degree; and this, taken in
connexion with the increased importation, has pro-
duced the present redundancy We again assign,
an objection to the present tariff that Its protec
ton is all on capital, and none on labor. IL IL so
graduated, that protects the manufacturer al NE er-
pense Of the farmer, &C. Thus coarse wool-the
kind that comes in competition with our farmers--ls
admitted, for the benefit of the manufacturer, almost
duty free; while fine wool is highly protected, so as
to blind the farmers eyes. But the fine wool, upon
which high duties laid, never has been, and new
er will be- imported into this country, so as TO Sc
rously impair the home market The tariff bill IN
troduced into Congress by James X Polk, gave an
equal protection to the farmers coarse woo-a SIM
iar protection democrats sought TO have ncorpora-
ted into the present bill, but were voted down by
the wings in the interest of the manufacturers. In
this respect perhaps, the democrats will amend the
present tariff next winter
We are not opposed to tariff, nor we hostile
to manufacturers. Our idea of tariff is this: MOI
more money should be taken from the people than
is absolutely required by the proper wants OF an
economical government. The tariff should be regu-
lated upon this revenue basis. Property should be
made to pay taxes, instead ofpcrsons All branches
of American industry should be encouraged, SO far
the government has right thereto; but the pro-
tection should be equal, and no class or section
should be depressed for the benefit of Others A
prohibitory tariff, that amounts to that, is as
foolish as the regulations of the Chinese empire;
and most protective tariffs, called, more I'M
just. Practical, universal free trade, believe,
would benefit universal humanity Such are our
ideas Of tariff and such we understand the demo-
cratic doctrine to be- Wherever the present tariff

ITALIAN LITERATURE.

Erropr FrrRAMoscA; or the CHALLENGE BARLETrA;
Historical Romance of the times OF the Medei by MAS
sIMo DAzEGLIo. Translated from the Italian by C.
EDWARDS LESTER United States Consul at Genoa author
the Gcry and Shame of England Sc, Sc: New York.
IsI5
This is the first of the Medci series of Italian
prose, recently announced as forthcoming from the
fertile pen of Mr. Lester and designed to elucidate
the genus the lives, and times of some OF the most
celebrated of the Italian ierati. The romance, OF
which spirited and elegant translation has here
been given is characterized by competent judges as
one of the best if not the very BEST in the Italian
tongue. Its incidents and scenery carry us back to
the golden age of the Medici and introduce us to an
intimate and familiar acquaintanceship with the per-
vading genius and spirit of an era sacred to every
scholar, and dear to every patriot. 1t gives us
pleasure to learn that Mr.. Lester has furnished
himself, during his residence at Genoa in an official
capacity with ample means for the further prose-
cution OF the rich intellectual vein, specimens of
which have here been afforded and that the ro-
nance of DAzeglio will speedily be followed up by
succession Of translations from Machavell,
Aferi and Others whose names have long been
tfamiiar as household words" with the scholar
and the statesman, but whose swords that breathe
and thoughts that burn" have not yet found their
way TO the domestic Preside, to the cotters hearth,
to the district library and the drawing-room. we
look upon il as one Of the most cheering indications
of the age in which we live, that the imperishable
works of the great masters of the sixteenth and
seventeenth no less than of the eighteenth and
nineteenth centuries, in every department of itera
ture and science, are placed within the reach and
at the command Of oil capable IN any degree OF ap-
preciating their beauties, and enjoying their mex
haustible treasures of intellectual excellence. In
contributing to this extension of the boundaries of
the world of mind, the author Of the "Glory and
Shame of Engand,n already favoraby known to
the reading public in both hcmispheres, will add
new laurels to the wreath which adorns his brow
and entitIe himself to the lasting gratitude Of his
countrymen.--.qlbany .irgs.
