Gen.

THE MARKETS, CoTTON.-r-The manufacturing districts are busy, and confidence prevails. Tbe season conduces all that we could desire. The cotton market is firm, With' good steady business, and prices have an upward tendency.- The later arrivals from the United States show that the last crop will not exceed 2,100,000 hales, and that the prospects of the crop for . the present year, owing to the lateness of tbe spring, arc not particularly promising.

The day after the receipt of the news at Boston of the passage of the Tariff, ttie manufacturers Extract of a Letter to a Member of Congress dated Fayette Springs (Pa.) Aug. 4, 1846. Dear Sir : : I have been spending a week here delightfully, hunting and fishing, and ex amining the classic grounds hereabouts, Fort Necessity, B ruddock's grave,Dunbar's Encamp ment, the Ohiopile Falls, 6ic. The new tariff is the great topic. Its effects upon labor and agriculture will be terrible, hut the manufac turers who can go on will do well. Several furnaces have stopped ; the hands Mock to the next furnace, offer to work at reduced rates to secure employment, and down goes wages ; and the farmer, losing his usual market, has to force his produce on tbe next establishment, and down goes his prices. Pig iron has fullen five, dollars per ton, but wages and produce will lose more. Wool is down six cents a pound this will not hurt the manufacturer; tbe labor ers and tbe farmers are and will he tbe suffer ers. I agree with you that the tariff is for their benefit more than the manufacturer's. Polk and Dallas are universally execrated, es pecially by those who voted for them.

' ; - -': -k DCf3 Below we give all the election news to hand, and a table showing the number of Whigs and Locos elected, as also the loss and gain of the Whigs. We believe it is pretty nearly, if not altogether correct. It is quite certain that the Whigs have carried the Legislature, although our majority in that body will not be as large as it was in 44. There are eight counties yet to be heard from. In the Se nate, we will either have a majority of two, or else it will stand as before 25 to a tie. Last year we had a majority of 22, in the House. Vhether Mr. Shep ard has contributed td decrease our ma jority in the Legislature or not, we cannot: say But we think it fair to conclude that i he did not render the' Democracy much it.
