Kenosha Tannery.

This establishment Of which Messrs.
Allen d. Smith are the proprietors, has
assumed business Importance in the
city, which entities it to some notice in
detail. The building is on the north
side of the river, of convenient access
to the harbor; it is in size 60 by 40 feet,
three stories high. There is also ad-
joining the main building an engine
house, bark mill, &c. The bark mill
HAS the capacity for grinding one cord
per hour. The area appropriated to
watts has capacity for So; also beam
house with seven watts. The hide mill,
pumps, and apparatus for drawing off
liquors to and from the watts, are com
plete.
There are also to be added to the
present building, facilities for pulling
the wool and tanning 10000 sheep skins
annually. Pelts manufactured russell.
white and fancy colors suitable for lin
ings, &c. Five hundred cords of bark
are annually required, which is brought
from Michigan and Northern Wisconsin
at $3.50 per cord The machinery is
all worked by steam power. The tan
merry now employs ten men and three
more will be required when the sheep
skin department is added.
The establishment now pays annually
for hired help mot including services
of proprietors) about $4,000. There is
paid out annually for other items as
follows 500 cords of bark and piling
it on the premises $4,000; for $500
hides Sl4,767; insurance 800; oil and
tallow 81 900; fuel for engine &c, 5000;
ncidentals $500; making total annual
expenditures S23, 1865. AS soon as the
machinery necessary for the working OF
sheep skins is in readiness, it is estima-
ted that further annual expenditure
for stock and labor will be required to
the amount Of $1,000 or $4,000.
The tanning of leather is chemical
process, and its success depends almost
wholly on the skill of the tanner. This
skill can only be acquired by long ex
perience and observation. The charge
OF the tanning process is under the di-
rection OF Mr.. w. II. Smith, who has
within the last twenty -five years, tested
the various methods of leather tanning
and has arrived at perfection of knowl-
edge i'll the art, which can only be OBJ
tanned by long practice. The quality
and durability of leather depends much
on the skill and judgement of the man
ufacturer.
Mr.. Smith furnishes the following
statistics of the tannory; 1000 sides OF
leather annually-equal to 102, 1915 lbs,
at 2S cents a pound, $2S,665. The fur
nishing consists of the grades, such as
harness, bride, collar, upper and sole
leather, &C., which is sold in different
markets as follows: Chicago, $3.50
sides; Milwaukee, 1850 sides; Keno
sha, 1850 sides.

Vote on the Admission of Oregon.

On the final vote in the House of
Representatives on the admission of
Oregon, IS Republicans voted for, and
73 against admission. Abstractly con-
sidered, the admission of Oregon is
perhaps well enough. But it must be
borne IN mind that the same democratic
members of Congress who voted for
the admission of Oregon, not only voted
against the admission of Kansas the
last session, but also voted to place a
restriction on Kansas, which they were
unwilling to apply to Oregon While
the majority persist in pursuing such
an unjustitiable policy towards Kansas,
the Republican members would have
been justified in voting unanimously
against the admission of Oregon. No
sensible reason can be assigned. why
oregon should be admitted into the
Union with less number of inhabitants
than Kansas. The true reason why
this distinction is made between Kan
sas and Oregon is disgraceful to Con,
gress. Oregon is pro-slavery Demo
cratic; Kansas is free state Repubii-
can.
1t will be perceived from the ayes and
noes on the admission of Oregon, that
among the thirteen Republicans who
voted aye is the name Of Mr.. Billing
hurst, member of the House from the
third district in this State. Mr.. Billing
hurst, according to the n Y. Tribune's
correspondent, voted against the pre-
amble of the constitution, thereby de-
claring his belief that the instrument
was not Republican in form. He there
fore stands upon the record as having
voted for the admission of Oregon with
constitution which he believes is not
Republican. Mr.. Billinghurst, in this
case, foreshadowed what his successor
Larabee would have done in the prem
lSes. The accounts say there was a
great demonstration gotten up at Wash
ington, the evening following the pas
sage of the Oregon bill, by the south
ern pro-slavery democrats. The event
was celebrated with procession, music
and roar of cannon. Whether all who
voted for the Oregon bill were pleased
with the demonstration does not ap-
pear.
The Oregon bill was originally draft
ed expressly to meet the full require
ment Of the bred Scot decision, ami
hilating the personality of every man
I who happens to have tawny skin,
driving him out of the State, closing
the halls of justice against him, and
endorsing the extra judicial decision of
Judge fancy, that people of dark col
or " have no right, which white men are
bound to respect"

The People taking Matters into their
Own Hands,

There appears to be prevailing I'M
uneasiness among the people in many
localities of the state, in consequence Of
the present embarrassed condition of
their peeuniary interests. On the lines
OF the several Railroads in the central
and western portions Of the State, peo-
pie are holding meetings and organizing
leagues to protect each other against i'm
pending calamities. In some localities,
evils aside from those growing out of
Railroad liabilities, are being discussed
in public meetings. Some of these
gatherings appear to be calm and dis
passionate, others are characterized with
more than ordinary zeal and revolutions
airy spirit. One of the more ultra kind
OF these meetings, was held a short time
ago IN Jefferson county The charac-
ter and temper Of the meeting may be
inferred from the Introductory remarks
OF the chairman, and the comments of
the reporter of the proceedings. We
give few extracts as specimen of the
spirit abroad
"Mr. Giles Kinney, who was called
to the Chair, explained the subjects of
the meeting 'to be for securing some
combination and.union on the part of the
farmers, producers and laboring men,
for the purpose ofprotecting their rights
and interests against the numerous evils
and aggressions to which they have
been unjustly obliged to submit, and if
possible, to form some organization or
association, by which they may declare
themselves independent of the imposi-
tons and robberies that are practlced
upon them by the human sharks and
