The American Wool Clip.

The estimate of the American wool
clip for 1892, made by the National
Association of Wooden Manufacture
ers, is 333,O1S,41 pounds. The clip
for 1891 was but 307 ,4O1 ,507. Thus
there was an increase of more than .
per cent. This is what has been done
under u protective policy, and in the
meantime. with "a larger domestic
product and higher duties upon I'M
ported woods, American consumers
have had lower prices. The reduction
of duties in the tariff of 1888 was so
destructive that the wool clip declined
from 337, 100000 pounds in that
year, to 295,779,479 in 1889. 1t
rallied with the promise of higher
duties, and increased more largely the
first year after the duties went into
effect. There is small reason for
doubling that the continuance OF a
policy ot protection would move us
gradually toward independence in the
matter OF our supply of clothing
woods. Ii the low duties OF 1888 ope-
rated TO exterminate iii six years
sheep enough TO cut down the domes-
tic wool product by 10000, 900
pounds, 1t may be estimated that free
wool will swiftly move the industry
toward destruction. Then the wool
will advance i'll price.

Henry Clay's Kind Friends.

Fifty years ago it became known
that Henry Clay was involved to the
extent OF some $4,000, by reason OF
an Endorsement. This debt was being
carried for him by the Northern bank,
and he paid the interest punctually
every our months when the note was
renewed. Mr.. Clay was then in the
senate, and his friends and partisans
valued his service above all public
men of his day. 1t became known
that his debt was n heavy burden on
MIR. Clay, who had no OF dis
charding it except by the sale Of Ash
land or n large part OF that estate,
and owing to the depressed price oil
land he was carrying the debt till land
improved in value. His friends, no.
body knows who or where they lived.
determined to pay the debt and thus
relieve the old statesman OF the bur
den. The money was sent to the bank
from the east, the notes paid and can
celei, and Mr.. Clay knew nothing of it
Till he went as usual to renew it and
pay the interest. The Cancelled notes
were handed to him by Farmer Dover,
the teller, and his as~tonishment may
we'll be imagined. To Il remonstranct
the sturdy old cashier could only re-
ply that the notes were paid, by whom
lie knew not, and that his concern
with them was at an end when they
were paid. Mr.. Clay bowed his head
on the desk and wept, and to his
dying day he never knew TO whom he
was indebted for the lifting ofthat ter
rible burden.
