The Effect 4 the Slavery Agitsfio~ at ths South.
Some FIVE or six weeks since, noticed in your
paper an article in which you deprecated the agi-
taton of the slavery question on account oil It's IN
furious effects, as You conceived, on the com
meycial prosperity of your city. You even pro-
phesed that if this agitation should not be
checked by the people of the North them
selves, and among themselves, the time would
not be far distant when one-third OF the
fine stores and warehouses that are now teem-
ing with business, would be tenantless. | was
then in the South, and was particularly impressed
with the wisdom of your remarks and the exact
truth of the premises on which your conclusions
were founded ] mean the moral separation, the
separation in feeling, which would be engeader-
ed in the bosoms of The Southern people, and con-
sequently their seeking for some other outlets for
their production than the great city OF the North.
Alas, sir, fear your predictions have been al
ready begun to be realized. fear that revolu-
ton has already commenced, which will change
the whole business of the Soath from our North
ports to Baltimore and other cities 10 the South
their own cotton. know that they are beginning
TO discover and invite the means of supplying them
with every species OF manufacture, and every KIND
of imported article, without being Obliged to re-
sort to the Northern cities. | know thar they are
talking Of the establishment OF watering places
at the Capes of Virginia. l know that they are
beginning to Withdraw their children from the
schools and colleges of the North, and laying
foundations for equal advantages among them
selves. These things | know; and believe with
you that the time will come, il this agitation is not
stopped, when not a shoe or q boot, or ar
ticle of clothing of any kind, will be worn
Or used in the South, which has either been man.
ufactured or purchased at the North. | believe
the time will come when the name of Seward will
be accursed throughout the whole North, as the
instgator of an agitation which might have been
Sueled, and ought to have been queiled, but which
has brought ruin upon the business of the North.
fear that it is already too late to stop the revolu-
ton. At some future day will give you some
statistics. A. B.

II will be noticed that while the three shire
towns above named have increased about 80 per
cent, the other parts Of the county show gain Of
less than ten per cant in FIVE years. The differ
ence in favor of the large towns is to be attributed
mainly TO the influence OF internal Improvements
and the extension Of manufactures. Each Of these
three towns the focus OF canals, railroads. and
plank roads. Utica and Whtestown are the seats
Of extensive manufactures. Within a few years
several large cotton and wooden manufactures
have been erected at Utica; and owing TO the de-
hciency of water power, steam Is used IN these es-
Adjustments as the propelling power; but the high
price OF wood and coal for fuel, must ever operate
.dssdvantagcousy TO this enterprise, IN comparison
with the superior facilities possessed by many 9TH
er places in this respect. II the Chenango canal,
which connects with the. Erie canal at Uhca, were
extended from Its southern tcrmiaa alton at Bing-
ihamton, on the Susquehanna, 10 the Pennsylvania
line (i0 miles) at Tioga Point, IL would, by con-
meeting with the Pennsy lvania canals, furnish a
chanael for the cheap introduction Of coal into
central New York. This canal would be import.
ant, not only to the manufacturing interests of
Oneida county, but to supply the salt works ia
.Onondsga county, the city Of Syracuse, and other
places on the Erie canal, with fuel.
Onondega county, judging from the census Of
Syracuse and few other towns, will exhibit a
larger increase in proportion than Oneida. The
county contained population OF 20, lbs IN 1915,
and il is nov supposed 10 exceed $1,000. Syracuse
alone now contains over 2, 900, having increased
about a hundred per cent within the last five years
The progress OF Syracuse, now a city, aud as.
hiring 10 become the political metropolis Of the
Empire State, has been remarkably repid From

ofthe coarse salt, Sis 1863 bushels were made at
Syracuse, 1872 at Geddes, and n, 54 bushels at
Salina.
There are, on the Reservation, between nine and
ten thousand watts for the evaporation of Brine pro-
ducing the coarse or solar salt. These watts have
cost including storehouses, about 1915, 000 The
manufacture of this description of salt, of course,
is not carried on during the winter months Ii is
understood that this branch of the salt business is
much more profitable than the manufacture of fine
salt by boiling but the capital required is much
larger in the former than in the latter. In some
instances, !! am informed, the manufacture of
coarse salt has yielded profit of forty per cent on
the capital while the fine salt business is fire.

rarely at large profit.

Isl blocks, Gas they are called, being buildings
containing the kettes) for the manufacture of fine
salt, averaging forty-eight kettles to the block,
thus giving an aggregate of S,6SS kettles in ope-
ration Mr. Spencer's block, containing eighty
kettles, averages 400 bushels every twenty-four
hours. The average running time in 1919 was
ITO days, and during such time each block con-
sumed six cords Of wood per day, sho wing the en-
tire quantity of wood burned during the season
119 AGO cords. This quantity, in continuous line,
allowing cord to be four feet wide, four feet hgh
and eight feet long, would extend (1Sl) one hum
81 per cord, was s23s. $40. Nearly one million of
barrels were used for packing the salt, costing, at
TWENTY-FIVE cents each, $3.50 900. Here is the sum
Of $40 paid for fuel and barrels, besides which
sl2O 600 were paid for labor, $685. for duties,
mandatory s6Si,753, in one season. The total
amount OF capital invested in the salt works by IL
dividuals 10 about $925, 900.
Syracuse is generally well built, and the inhabi-
tants are exclusively a business community. few of
them being independent of their occupations for a
Livelihood. The elements of prosperity are certain
and enduring.

JoHN M'DoNoUGH, THE MuLIoNARE.-The an
nouncement yesterday evening OF the death OF
John McDonough took our city by surprise, aud
formt the sole subject Of conversation wherever
il was known. His long residence among US, his
immense wealth, his peculiar habits and APP
ptarance, had made his name familiar, not only
here, but everywhere in the State, AS household
word. He seemed many being apart from his
fellow'men. While youth, and strength, aud
health, and beauty were, year after year, struck
down beside him, he moved on, tall, spare, erect,
with spriphtly step and look Every school urchin
recognized, at fret glance, the thin, sharp intel
lgent face, the small, sparkling brown eye, the
long white hair, the neat, prm white cravat and
high shirt collar, the well-preseryed old hat and
fashioned, tight fitting blue cloth dress coat and
pantaloons, and well polished shoes. We had
gradually become impressed with the idea that
John McDonouph would never die. He appeared
az much an understandable relic of city's an
cieDt history as the old State House OF the old ca
thedrel. One of those antique monuments has
been razed te the ground; the other has thrown of
is old vtsiure for a new one, and the third, John
McDonough, now lies ready for his last journey
AID his last resting place-the tomb.
He was in the city on Thursday, looking as well
and active as ever. His old friends thought him
better than usual. He spoke much Of his private
family, and felt himself IN excellent health. That
night he was seized with a severe cholic, which
we are informed afterwards took the appearance OF
cholera. The NEST powerful remedies were EN-

terday afternoon he died. A number Of his friends
and medical attendants were present. He handed
his will to his legal adviser, 9. Roselius. At the
time Of his death, he was within two months Of
being seventy.one years Of age.
John McDonough came 10 this city Immediately
after the cesson Of Louisiana 10 the Union lie
engaged in business as a merchant, and then en-
tered largely into specuations in lands and other
property BY dint Of the strictest economy and the
exertion Of rare business talents, he succeeded in
anna ssing fortune yariousy estimated at from ten
TO fifteen millions. This most singular propensity
was a settled resolution not 10 sell any Of his i'm
mense possessions, and that resolution he has kept.
At the battle OF Chalmete Plains, and in the pre-
cedDg movements and conflicts Of the campaign
under Gen Jackson, he served as private soldier
in the Louisiana regiment, and comported himself
as a gallant soldier Many traits Of benevolence
are cited of him on good authority, notwithstand-
ing the general opinion to the contrary.
belief has long been entertained that he was
meditating some grand scheme, either OF negro
colonization OF otherwise, in which his magnificent
fortune would have proved Of immense benefit to

The quantity Of salt manufactured at these "a.

of bushels, being diminution of one million Of
bushels from the quantity made last year. This

averaging only about seventy cents per barrel,
containing five bushels of 6fty-six pounds weight,
and subject to duty to the State of five cents per
barrel, and twenty-five cents for the cost of the

cents per bushel-a price much below the cost of

visitors on the 18th May next. Gen. T.
G. McMackin, well known to the travel
ing and reading public as the best land
lord ofthe South, will have the superin-
tedence and management under his en-
tire control. This is a sufficient guar
entee for the comfort ofthe VISITORS
We have erected and in the course
of erection buildings sufficiently spa
cious to accommodate 500 persons
in all comfort, and also a number Of
double cottages which will be rented to
families by the month or season. There
will also be a large Ball Room aud band
of music, Tenpin Alley and Billiard

Benton Stage line, who will promptly
convey all passengers from those points
to the Springs.
Passengers by way Of Canton, will
be Immediately conveyed to the Springs
by MIR. Jesse P. Brown, in Coach and
Hack with speed and perfect safety.
These Springs are situated on the
Ridge which lies between Big Black
and Pearl, in a high rolling country and
on the immediate border Of the pine re-
plon, and the proprietors feel fully Just
flied from their " observation, from
the estimation Of that portion Of the
public 10 whom the beneficial effects of
their waters are known. and from the
concurrent testimony Of many i%ntelli-
gent gentlemen Of the medical profess
sion under whose recommendation and
observation they have been used, in re-
commencing them, in all cases 10 which
%tonics are indicated, but especially in
all cases connected with a debilitated
