CAPRON ON WOOL,

Colonel CsQrou. the Commissioner of
Agriculture, 8ee1ns to bnve mistaken Litn-
aelf this year for the Comsuixai ncs Of tho
Revenue. In his annunl rarurt he discusses
the fdriD On wool instead u the methods
Of producing wool. HI ndyiscs Congress as
to the rates Ct duty proper to lie lsrled on
wool, when he could with more p1opriety
bave given his attention to tue means of
improving the mutton, or iessenipg the
number and intensity Of the 1nuttonheads
in the country. F,nance, except as 1eganls
The expenses Of his own office, forms no
part OF the business Of the Commissioner
1 each G;'snsn' sails, 'tg iGlt 's sHgee!ea II
gives is incorrect as we'll rs impertincnt
The tariff Tn wool il a. fraud
and dclntien. Asnn Ohio wool farmer said
ut recent agricultural meeting, ho has
paid ncre tax in the incrensc in tbs cost Of
his shenrs tbsn ho had been benefited by
the duty On WOOL; and when he computed
how much additional ta1 he bad to pay
npon all Of his purchases because Of that
increase in thu duty on iron and WOOL, be
! confessed that he had l,een both fooled and
plundered. The dnsy on wool 1lns prosed,
as Comm1>siortr Wells predicted it wculd,
