Cause and Effect of the Present Short Supply of Wool: The Philadelphia InOirer, of Feb. 6, says: For some (line past there has been great excitement in the wool market, owing to the steady in crease in the price of this commodity. This has been occasioned by u wool famine all over the world. Prime haVe advance 4 in England and on the Vontinent,ln all the wool mark ets, corresponding to the advance here, and in some instances:the ad vance on the other side has been lar ger than here. This wool famine will last probably all through the present year. Thealip in 1878 will no doubt be the largest m the world's history. Every one wM make an effort to in crease. it. The reason the clip in. 72 1 . wilt not be much In excess of 1871 is I- because the great advance did not take place until after the lambing sea- son was over. The advance in woolen goods has not corresponded at all with the ads -vanee in wool, and this is in winces ure caused by there being a no lta?s number of yards of goods produced than there haspeen previously.- A great many manufacturers who have heretofore made up woolen goods, are now using in the placeof wool, other materials which cheapen the cost of goods per yard, but do not les sen the production of yards. So. while there has beeti a famine in the wool market, there is scarcely any de creased production of yards 'of goods. From the present appearance of things, it is probable they will make • themanufacturing businessoneof the most profitable that can be carried on in a short time. The reason is that l imn there will be an enormous quan- nay of wool to find a market, with ,• scarcely any increase in the machine- , ry to use it, This will of course di- • mlnish prices, and probably-In-1873 we shall see wools less than half the amount they now bring, and goods at almost the-mine figures. This is be cause the number of yards will be kept about the same, and the demand for goods will be about as large, while the production of wool will be double what it is at present. The small supply of wool in port has been owing to the fact that a great many farmers thought the growth of beef anti pork, would pay them better than the growth of wool. In the years 1869, 1876 and 1871 the slaughter of sheep in this country was very great. As a consequence, the supply of wool in 1871 was not over two-thirds of the product of 1;869. In other prtrts of the world, - as wool tariff in those countries was dif fenwt for wool off the skins and wool on tWskins, it created a determina tion to kill sheep so as to bring the wool here on the skins, trusting to reproduction to replenish their flocks. Now the wool tariff is the same for wool on the skin as for wool off the skin, and reproduction has not been as rapid in the countries where they slaughter so heavily as Was anticipa ted. Consequently the supply from ell those quarters is greatly dimin ished, and the fact- stands boldly out that a wool famine is being felt the world over. In 1870 there arrived in this cowl try the skins from over flaie million sheep. Last year the receipts of skin were much less, bemuse the duty is now the same on wool on the skin as off. Everywhere the loss is felt of the number of sheep slaughtered to supply the market in this country. The wool business in this city is ex ' teesively carried on. In domestic wool Boston: is first, Philadelphia second and , New York third. In foreign _wools New York sells the. most, Philadelphia comes second, and 'Boston ranks third. Ifarrangements be affected so that the operators in wool in this city could import direct ly to Philadelphia there would be a very large increase in the receipts of wool at this port, and duties paid here which now go to increase the . business of New York. There is a vast amount of wool anst r eils chafiti to New York and then shi m p- Philadelphia does not stand,first in the wool business simply because of lack. of means to bring the product here. There has been a steady improve ment in the prices el wool last year. The Chicago fire and a tight money market following, for a slant time interrupted this advance. In fact it softened prices a little, but to men taking a closer view of the case at the time, it showed that this advance was not a speculative one, inasmuch as the consequent depression following the tiro did not affect the prices so slightly. It was really caused for legitimate purposes. As soon as mon ey grew a little easier prices again took an upward turn. Wool has been higher during the war than it is now, hut then gold was very much higher also. The highest prices for wool ever ruling in this country were in 164, in July, when some stocks brought $1.25 the pound. Gold stood then about t 24, and wool is really higher now than it was in that year. It is a fact that wool is really bringing a higher price to-day, in gold ? than it ever brought before. Even in the mast specula tive times wool never advanced to the figures to which supply and de mand have raised it. In other (sties it was simple speculation. Now It is one of wool. / t must he had or' the machines will have to he stopped. With all the efforts made, it . is be. heved that a considerable propers tion of the machinery of this country must se and idle from the first of May to the first of June or July this year, Mills that have confined themselves to woolen fabrics will have to stop. All the efforts to buy a sufficient amount here at reasiinable rates wilt prove insufficient in supplying all the mills. Wool is now simply be ing sold to manufacturers who great ly need it. The great fear among wool operators is that there will not be sufficient advance in goods soon enough to prevent a great many of the smaller manufacturers from suc cumbing, and perhaps crippling seri ously some of the larger establish ments. Tub-wool, which ginned in Indiana in June at 60e 'per pound, Is worth 90c. Hence wools which fo-day are worth 75e cost in Ohio in June 55c. Pulled wools, worth to-day 75c, In September started selling at Goa I=l Tardy Reform. ien. Grant has ordered the Opti on of the General Order hushre.

Senator Wilson has addres s ed the following letter to a politicaland per sonal frieiad: WasttrwitToN, 1.)„ C. Feb. 13,1872.. DEAR Yonask Me how the withdrawal by Mr. Colfax of his it decision not to be A candi date affects your position." I have to say . in reply, that when the Vice President announced that he should not be a candidate for reelection, and that the position might be claimed by the friends of some astern or Southern man, many gentlemen, some of whom had kindly supportdd me in 1868, arattrthers who had sup ported Mr. Colfax, Mr. Fenton, ur Mr. \Vade, said or wrote to me that they intended to give me their Will em* for the Vice-Presidency, I had just been elected for the fourth time to the Senate, had entered upon the full term, And had every reason to he grat n ified and satisfied with m ThO evidence of the pe r sonal regard and friendship of many of the noblest men of several States could not but gratify that feeling. which prizes reeOgnition by the whole Hcountry—a - feeling entertained by ' most men who have long been in the ' service of their States. After ascer taining that tkYice President's de cision was final, I assented to the re quest of friends, before leaving for Europe early in June last. After my ' return and before the meeting of Con gress, several leading men in more than a dozen Slates, many of whom I had served with in Congress, a.ssur ed me that they and the Republicans of their States were for my noinina thin. I have left this matter to oth ers. and up td this date (the 13th of February), I have not written a word to any one nor replied to the many -letters -I have received on the subject. The revocation by the Vice Presi dent of his declaration was to me a surprise. It placed me in an unpleas ant position, and my first impulse was to withdraw from the contest, but by the advice of some of the best Republicans of the land, east, west and south, I leave the question to personal and poljtical friends. What ever may be the result, I shall be content, and shakdo what I can for the unity and sucss of the Repub limn party, whooN - 7er may be its can didates, for I am bound to it alike by conviction and by association, by gratitude for its deeds of patriotism and liberty, and by hopes of the ser vices it may render to the country." Laud for Soldiers. The question of suitably providing for those who saved their country as soldiers or sailors during the late war has been before Congress, in some form, for several years. The bill now before Congress, providing for boon ties to all soldier= and sailors who have served in the army and navy for ninety days, and to all teamsters and others who wre on the pay-rolls of the naval, marine or military ser vice, meets with general favor. All such men or their legal heirs, provi ded they have remained loyal, are to receive one hundred acres of land, If this bill becomes a law, of which there is now little doubt. Section second of the bill declares tluu the warrants for the lands thus granted may be as.signed, transferred .and located by the paitrantees, their heirs or RE:sigmas, according to the ~..--2-.---”t• existing laws rgulat mg the . . assi Ztims- - 1 0.., • - ^•°•'u , • " •, u a.ktrup /If 1,,,,.,0,- -..a03 public lands which are — Miir and may hereafter become subject to re -etnption, entry or sale, at the minimum price of one dollar and twenty-five mots per acre. Section third authorizes the tvarrantee, assignee or owners ofsuch certificate or warrant to locate such warrant on any alternate reserved section of public land along the line of any railroad now built, or hereafter to he built, or other public lands that have been, or may be, granted by Congress for the purpose of public improvement. Section four provides that if the holder of a warrant de cides to return it to the Government, the Secretary of the Treasury is au thorized to issue to the party thus returning the warrant, a certificate of indebtedness of one dollar per acre, which certificate shall draw interest nt the rate. f live per MD t. per annum. Such a bill ought toctuick ly pass Con grefts, as It will involve a disposal of the kblie lands that will be entirely popular. The objection to giving lands in the form of sule•idies to rail road companies is growing in posi tiveness while the prorsal to (suffer them on those who foterht in the war will he increasirigly popular, _ VORNEV , SI BESIGS(AT!ON The resignation of Col. Forney as Collector of the Port of Philadelphia, threatens to add . one more element of opposition to-General Grent's re noffilnatioa as the Republican .sindi date for the Presidem.y. Col. ForiWY (keg. not vet essittne a hostile attitude in so many words, but he pretty clearly glvts4 it to be understood that the price of holding a Federal office is unqualified submission to the wish es and support of the decress of the President in matters li - ssal as well as national. :Such a charge substantially made by one holding office is equiva lent to charging that whatever thee relient views the President may have about civil service reform, he is prac tically no more of a civil service re former than General Jackson or Sena tor t 'arrientor. We still think that President Grant will secure the nomfination, but the signs thicken that the struggle will he a close one. The opposition/ to the Presplene is esteradily being rein forced. When such men as ex-f ee retary Cox and Judge Matthews, Roar ley Brenkerhoff and Stella, of Ohio, corn' out in favor of the' Cin cinnatti Repubilean Convention, and Forney on the eve of such a move ment, throws up his collectorship end declares for independent liepatr liem journalism, it certainty ought to be a warning to the President that Itis henchmen, Morton, Cameron, Nye,-Chandter and Carpenter have been cracking the Adnibitstration whip too strongly andliffienating too many powerful elements. Such pa peni as the Chicago Tribune, New York Triburie,Cineinnati Independent, Nation, and „Mank Les lie are either openly or covertly er n:lV(' against' General Grant. and several tof the most efficient letter Writers of the country are persistent in their hostility. S"ch Men as Greeley, Sumner, Schurz, Gratz Brown, Trumbull and the Ohio men named, are hostile to him, One of the strongest supporters of the ad ministration, we refer to Harper'R Weekim, has already sounded a loud note Of alarm. It seems to fear in real earnest a formidable boll in the Republican ranks if,Grant be renom inated. • This is the presynt situation, The Pittsburgh Chronicle. _474 WI —The Juniata Sentinel says (on last Thursday a son of Jacob Musser, of Walker township, nred about 12 years was burned to death under the fol lowing circumstances: the mother of the boy Went to, a neighbor's house leaving the hoy.at borne. During . her' ahsen(-6 the child went to the stove and played with the fire. In the play his clothes took fire. The mother came home to find ier boy wrapped in liarrnsand so badly burn ed that he died from theleffects. Ile was burled on Sunday tast. KU-liLIUX. The IC — mberatic press still declare there are no Ku-Klux. We hope they will ponder on the following extract fronta speeech of Ron. Bev erdy Johnson, of Maryland. a known democrat and able lawyer, who was employed to defend the tribe in . liOuth Carolinala December last: I have listened with unmixed hor ror to some of the testimony which has been brought before you. The outrages proved are shocking to hu manity •, admit of neither excuse or justification ; they violate every obli gation which law - and nature imposes upon men ; they show that the par ties engaged were brutes, insensible 1 to the obligations of humanity and religion. The day will come; how- I ever, if it has not already arrivki, ' 1 when they will deeply lament it. Even if justice shall not overtake, them, there is one tribunal from which there is no hope. It is their own Judgment—that tribunal which sits in the hremt of every living man, that small, still voice that thrills through the heart, the soul ot the mind, and as it speaks gives happi ness or torture—the-voice of mincjence thewoice of God. If it has not already spoke to them in toues which havesOrtlei them to the enormity of their 4nd out, I trust, in the mercy of Hed"PetA that the voice will speak before they arecalled above to account for the transactions of this world. That it will so speak as to make them penitent, and that trusting in the dispensations of Heav en whose justice is dispensed with mercy, when they shall be brought be fore the bar of t heir great tribunal, so to_ speak, that incomprehensible tri bunal, there will be found in° their ipenitence, or in their previous lives, some grounds upon which God may say pardon. IEET:11 —A .correspondent of the Cambrian Freeman, writing from Johnstown, says:. I-eople hereabouts in the spring may look out for the biggest flood that has ever been. In Jan uary there was a thaw, and the ice moved and tilled the Channels with gorged ice several layers thick. The late freeze formed a large quantity of new ice, while the recent snow fills the mountain gorges. When warm weather opproaches this snow will melt, and if there be rain, streams will break up and there will be trou ble.
