Examiner, alluding 10 the superiority
of many kinds of American manufacto-
ries, and the dangerous competitors they
are becoming among English factors
and markets, alludes TO not only OUT
Railroad iron standing better the test Of
wear and tear, but TO the testimony oI
the Sheffield Cutters admitting The super
ionty Of our cutlery, and especially the
material used in its manufacture. |,
said:
At the last meeting Of the Sheffield
Cutters, the Master Cutler declared thai
American Cutters ,oere cutting them out
in knipes: knives of American make be-
ing preferred to ours, because the mate.
reldoes not give way under use as those
of Sheffield arc sometimes found to do.
In short, notwithstanding the sharp prac-
,ice and hasiy habits of America, They
are in some branches of trade earning
the repute for sterling stuff and make
which used TO be our own; and if we
suffer them TO vain that reputation from
us altogether then indeed soe shall
hare lost more than India ,Dere ANNEXED
to>morr0r.
The Lord Mayor, ia his speech, made
the striking admission thai, as general
thing, American manufactures OF cntlery
more uniformly use good materials than
those of Sheffield. "The manufactu-
res of edge tools in America"
said he, ''invariable use the best steel
Sheffield prodced, regardless of price,
while some of The Sheffield ma2utac-
lures were arriving. at great profit by
making cheaper article from inferior
material. Il was not in workmanship,
but in the use Of the best material, that
the Americans gained any superiority"

his marriage feast. All the dement's
were propilions except The ocean, which
had been so boisierous as TO deny the
very necessary npcendage of fish. On
the veIy morning Of the feast, however,
poor fisherman made his appeara ce,
with lurbot 30 large, that il seemed TO
have been created for the location. Joy
pervaded The castle, and The fisherman
was ushered with Jis price into the sa-
loon, where the noblcman in tho pres,
ence Of his visiters, requested him 10 put
what price be thought proper on the fish,
and il should be instantly pnid him. One
hundred lashes, said the fisherman, on
my bare back, is the price of my flesh,
ond J will not bate one strand OF whip
cord on the bargin. The noblemnn and
his guests we're not little nstonishod
but our champman was resolute, and
remonsirance was in vain. At length
the nobleman exclaimed. Well, we'll
the fellow is humourisl, and the fish we
must have. but lay on lightly, and let The
price be paid in our presence. Alter fl
~ lasbes had been administered. Hold,
hold, exclaimed the fishe erman, have

that he should receive his share. What!
are there two such madchaps in The
world? exclaimed The nobIeman: name
him and he shall be sent Tor instantly.
You need not 60 far forShim, said the
fisherman, you will find him at your gate
in the shape of your own porter, who
would moi lei me in until | promised
that he should have the half of whatever
lreceved for my tnrbot. On, ho, said tue

finished, he discharged the porter, and

Calunbus, Jan. ,, 1854.

The ". Y. Tribune has tho following
characteristic and ,rutaful paragraph on
the part barne in this "onehorse" contest
by the Wings!
II was Charles Townshend, II we rights
" remember, from whom Sheridan bor-
Yowed his bon mot on the Peace Of
Ariena, that it was one "of which every
body was glad, and nobody was pround." F"
The remark applies with equal force TO
the result Of our Election. The Wings
have the Canal Board, the State Depart
menls and both branches of,he Legista>
ture, yet nobody imagines that the Wing
party as such deserves any credit for this
result. lis attitude is that ofa clown in
10 whose cap traveller has cbucked q
dollar, just for the sake of enjoying his
amusement. The Democratic party saw
fit 10 quarrel and throw the State away;
and The Wings have it because they could
NOT help themselves. OF the 100000
Wing electors in the State, not more
than 10000 have voted the Wing State
Ticket this year. Almost every where,
the Silver Grays where in open revolt at,
or secretly leagued with the adversary.
Their organs at Utica and Syracuse were
sold OUT during the canvass, and became
openly Hard, as they will continue.
Those atCanandaigua andRoches,er were
busy in getting up und supporting boiling
sticke,s agains. the regularWhie nominees,
and then in trading off the Wing State
ticket for Hard and Soft votes for their
boiling Congressman or Senator. If
apathy, intestine fueds and general anar
chy could have defeated the regular Wing
ticket, that result would have been attai-
ned; but the crack in The Wing party
runs very close To the further edge Of il,
while that in the Democracy was right
through the middle, and mani!estly past
surgery. He who desired to prove iha.
the Wing party as heaIthful vitality
mus, offer some further evidence than
that afforded by our recent election. g
