Those who take short sighted views Of
things may not see fully and clearly the inju-
rious conseq quences Of the evil here pointe5 oui-
They may say that under the present system.
quite as much. if not more, wool is purchased
By the manufacturer than would be purchased
under any other system, and if one class of
manufacturers accumulate large stocks Of
wool ihai they do not want they can sell them
TO others who do. All this Is undeniable.-
Bat the manufacturers no more desires TO be
wool merchants, than they desire to be wool
growers, and thus acquire themselves the
united profits Of the farmer, the merchant and
the manulactnrer.
Tie history Of commerce shows shat, with
few exceptions, this inmbIe Of different pur-
suits IS fatal 10 prosperity. If the manufac
turer, by the force Of circumstances. is never
'heless. compelled TO some extent to pursue
this course, he will not transfer an accumu.-
zion Of, to him. useless wool, TO brother
manufacturer, without profit. and whatever
that profit may be. il is 50 much abstracted
from the profit Of the wool grower.
Again: whatever retardS the prosperity of
the woolen factories, abaies rneasuraby the
profits Of the Aock-master, and among the va
riaus hindances to the growth and extension
Of lhis description of manufactures none has
been more potent in it's its haneful Influence
than the known and acknowledged fact that
an enormous amount # capatalis requisite TO
secure success. I hope to able to show by
and by. that ii is for the interest of the wool
grower to DO all in his power to lessen this
evil. and bring the cotton and the xolen
manufabturer more nearly to a level.
The 10000 lbs, Of wool referred to, has
cost that Company not less than S52 $500. a
very nice sum to lay perfectly idle for more
than year. The bare mention of the fac:
will convince any one that this company will
readily pay more than it now does for the de-
scriptions Of WOO il actually wants, if j, can
be saved an outlay so enormous, AM at she
same time so unnecessary.

From The Kent County Atlas.

Gov. Lawrence, in his report to the
General Assembly, at the October Ses-
sion, on the subject Of abolshing i'm
pris0nment Tor debt has entirely leit out
Of sight the provisions Of the act entitled
"An Act for the relief OF poor persons
imprisoned for debt" as contained in
secllons 10, 90, 81, 22, 90, "a, 25, 26, 81.
Persons sued need not, as we under
stand The Law in Kent County, go TO Jail
in any instance il they comply with the
requirements in those 8 sections, unless
the debt was contracted before the said
nine sections Of Law were enacted,
which was more than six years since
Numerous suits have been commenced
in this county which terminated by the
defendants making an assignment in
the court in which the case was pending
before n single justice ol the peace, and
the Poor Prisoners Oath was then adj
ministered to him by the Court. and his
"Llberty Of Person" was not invaded.
Ii appears 10 me that the whole sub
stance OF what Gov Lawrence recom-
mends is now actually The law Of the
land, and 10 10 be found in the 8 sections
oraw above referred to; except perhaps
the alteration Of the form Of the present
Writ of Arrest to Writ Of Summons
and that form is now frequently made
use OF.
