TIE TASEEkY.--The new Tannery 10 pro-
crossing. II is found that seven ysars are
not necessary 70 make good. leather. Some
old fogies continue 10 adhere TO the obsolete
notion that the process Of tanning sannot be
expedited without injury 70 the leather. AS
il the science Of the nineteenth century was
not equally capable OF producing leather in
two weeks as il has been in reducing the
passage from Enrope 10 America from three
months TO nine days, or in transmitting in.
tel'igence thousands Of miles by . fash Of
lightning.
We believe the patent process Of tanning
j. success. The leather Of all kinds made
It the Tannery in this city, we understand,
gives satisfaction, and the concern is con
stantly at work turning out stock. What we
want next is enough Of such tannsries to
work up all the hides Of the State, and then
we want the shoemakers right here to work
up the leather. Thus the understandings Of
men would be improved in double sense.
Let one fgue up the number and cost oil
boot. anG SHOES consumed in this State, the
cost Of transporting the hides to New Eng
land, OF transporting the boots and shoes
back here from thence, and Of transportins
the wheat, -four, beef, DO, wherewith to feed
the shoemakers in New England and pur.
chase their manufactures for orr own use.
These transportation charges alone are ar
immense drain upon the pockets Of our PEG
pie, and would furnish ample profits to hon.
producers.
How much better and more economical Il
would be could the manufacturers be in
duced to come here. What saving Of tim.
and capital! What homo market for oul
products would grow upl Every branch q
industry would help every other branch, ant
would thrive by the close proximity. 4
