(Tat, the home organ of Copt. McClel
land, the nietni.er of . Congress from
this district, says: "We understand
that Capt. ,McClelland will not be a
candidate for re-election to Congress
this fall."
IT has leaked out within the pa. 4
few days that Senator Cameron is
candidate for the Vice Presidency,
and herein is found the true reason
for the Stilte Committee's refusal to
allow the people of the respective
districts to select their own delegates
to the National COnvention. Gen•

the "popular sovereigns" of Pennsyl

salmi itted his claims to their consid

zing sense of the treatment he would
receive at their hands. We do not
wonder,' therefore,, that himself and
friends prefer giving the people a
wide berth and choose to ask a State
i`onvention—a more easily
handled—to pass upon his wantS.

A WOOL-FAMINE.
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

Letter From !Senator Wilson on
the Vice Presidency.
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 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

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.

—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
