prevent the' evasion., of the present
by importing good but dirty wool, a
rec t or , specific . duty of 7 cen ts is pro-
ised on every pobnd. This will be a cer-;
tain protection aud as the merchant and
,nanufcmrer,rcannot evade! it, they will
reverie their plan, and import only; the
cleanest wool.io save the duty. It wilh
; r jfnit9 be scoured with great care. As 4
thereis:great dinerence in the foreign cost
oRtxlean wool, ranging, in fact, from 15
icJnts to SI 20, we have proposed a duty
Jofl40 per cent on the yalue, Uo'as'to.pro-;
;tept tNe fiocs wool.. To prove the advan
tage of im por ting dirty wool,' we will give
the following example ; Under the existing
lalvViiPposing 5 percent- on iwool costing
not .-over. 10 iCents, and 30 per cent, on
wool costing over 10 cents, take one pound
ofjclean wool worth 20 cents. It pays 30
per cent, or 6 cents $ add to this pound of
Wool one pound of dirt, and invoice them
at 1 0 cen t s it would amou n t to 20 ce n ts ;
but this 20 cents for two pounds of mixed
vol a id mud, would pay but 15 per cent,
dilty, rr 3 cents, exactly one half the tluty
on the pound of clean wooU . By adopting
thrs prictice, the duty on 100,000 pounds
bfjwool would amount to no more than 83,-
OOpi when, otherwise, it would amount to
StLOOOj. A fact which will not! escape the
merchant, though it mav the lawgiver.
V jThoqh the duty proposed will not great
ly advance the price, the check! to impor
tation will, at once, create a demand on
the American farmer for coarse wool, and
large q tan titles, now on hand, will find a
market. " They may assort their fleece in
to at least two equal parcels y one may
sellfat SO, the Jbther at 18 cents; so that,
in fact, there will be a full supoW, .at an
advance of about 4 cents per pound, on the
low:st'gade imported, (used for carpets,
&CJ .when washed equally clean with the
nati re wool, grown in the U. States.
Tie wool costing over 10 cents, & pay
ing 30 per cent, duty, imported-las! year,
cotg233f 739. One half of the amount
paid! was for wool averaging 15 cents; the
other half 45 cents. iOf the latter there
were! 259,rl0 lbs. . Of that at 15 cents,
there we re 779,130 lbs. making the whole
importation of the year, if brought to. a
statejequal to wool, well washed, on the
slieeb's bkek, about 2,333,718 lbs. though
the actual importation of wool! and dirt,
invoiced las wool, was 3,213.628 lbs. the
wholfe costing, in fact, S408, 527, and pay

Messrs
Gales :
; , - I beer of vbu, gentlemen, the
favor to permit me to make a few laudatory ob
servation i upon the $peech f General SpKtaT.
delivered to a meeting1 of the f liends of General
Jackson, in Cireene County, on the! 2d of last
February j and published in the last Btar. 4 The
Speech liaving been presented to the public,
becomes J of course, their property, and is alto
gether subject to tt. ;ir. disposal. - Anttneither
the General nor hisvfriehds wUPresaeto eny
that we have as fair a 'ight to canvass hisS peech,
with wh freedom we please," as hebiu to re
mark upon the administrators: Of iburiublic af
fairs, b Jhis immediate ineihbors. iPersbhally
we have s high respect for General Speig-ht, but
have no acquaintance with the geritlemun, and
no other knowledge of him than as a public man.
As all your reader jnay; not have seen the
S peechi v ;e i nform them that jit " bath a goodly
length', occupying fobr columns and a quarter of
the Star, and with not (the- largest type. 'Cher
General begins by telling the meeting, what, he!
says, cannot fail to be known to you all." H?
tnen observes, that " the. great question ' which
agitates tqe political woria is. wno slall be Pre
sident qf the United States ?" This is po doubt
the case. The whole) worc? is interested in this
