the following specimen of the movements of the
manufacturers:

| These are indeed evidences of ruin which afford
very little encouragementto the panic which the wings
are laboring to get up. The Delaware Republican"
attempted the other day to make some capital out Of
the journeymen shoemakers. 1t stated that, sin
consequence of the passage of the new tariff bill,
some Of those engaged in the boot and shoe trade
have commenced curtaiing their business. In our
city, some ioumeymen shoemakers have already
been discharged and many others will doubtless
soon share like fate The reason given for their
discharge is, their employers already have a large
stock Of work made up, and they wish to reduce il
before the first of December as under the new tariff
heavy importations Of French boots and shoes will
be made"
| The delaware Gazette, =" however, followed upon
the heels of the Republican" and thus exposed its
misstatements:

| The "New Haven (Con.) Register" of Monday
last, produces the following proofs of the thriving
| condition of the manufacturers:
