In Lon diar not lung ;since, Slioemakers' Union, geld, a public meet . ang io tal-J.t measures for tile regulation of Jltture prices., and to lay explicitly before the poldie:the, teas.ons why an advance was lin `relative. These were not only numerous but plausible; First was the fact thas the cattle formerly running. wild lover the vast pampas OrSOutb America bare been nearly extermina tkd be disease rind by indiscriminate linnet- Olaf. the market tad in a great measure been drained by the inatriense quan -tities of :manufactured. leather -.-which - had been sent tot:Mpg:v. the 'allied forces in the crimes. „Titird,that thtkpeassuatry of France and : G4tmany who, for generations past, !tad Won ,their - olniareteristic wooden shoes,-are pow discarding them, regardleSavribe bither. cost of calves skin and morocco. A fourth reason was that the cost of manufacturing leather is every year becoming great With the disappeatance of oak and hemlock for ests, which the constant demand of ship buil ding and 'architecture are g radually en croaching upon, the only available astringent used by the tanoer is also placed farther and tarther beyond his reach. The period when bark could be had for a little more than the mere expense of stripping it,has long since passed. It is now an expensive article, and fiequently has to be transported- very 'consid erable di.tanees. -The same laws Which govern. the leather trade of London and Paris. must, at least in a molitied extent,apply here, and consequent lv the same effects must be felt. Front the magnate manufacturer who employs a thou sand opeixtives down, to the most signifkant of thaze.employees, all are complaining griev •ously of the pressure upon their business, and the impossibility uder existing circumstances of obtaining a profit. Two meetings have been held by the trade in this city,• and, al though,no decisive action- has been* taken, the matter ail' probably lead to the. forma tion of a Leather:Manufacturers' and Dealers -.Vsociation.: At these meetings an effort was made to advance the prices twenty per cent. beyond p esent rates, but it was misc. cessful, a considerable number of the trade declining to adopt such a course. It appears that, although the advance- on leather has been great, that upon blues is still higher.— The increase upon the former since 1848 has been one hundred per cent., while upon the `latter it is at least three hundred. We learn also, that in England and on the continent hides ate still dearer titan here ; 'while buy ems f rom E ng l an d are now in New York real izing a profit by shipping hides to Liverpool. At New Orleans, also, thet•o are large orders now being filled fur. hea4 slaughter hides from France. In common with this sulject we may re mark, that not many years hence the north ern and a orth wester► :ier of counties of Pa., must form a nucleus of the tanning business of this country-s—that is, unless it shall be foun•l cheaper to . transport bark than to trans port leader. We have above referred to the in t r e asie 7 scarcity of this indispensable arti cle. - IC will be but a few. years before almost every section will be stripped of ita.forests, and here among the hemlock and oak, the farmer of which is apparently inexhaustible, must the bulk of the tanning business be lo cated. We, believe the . largest and most profitable tannery in the State, if not in the country, is at Jersey shore. Contiguous .to it is a vast magazine of bark. In • fact, the Joe:ohm is just upon the borders of the lum ber district. The machinery is propelled by water power. The hides are taken dit%.ct to the tannery, and the leather thence •to the city by canal ; while the bark is ptirchased from rustics, - who peel it " upon shares" for the owner of the timber. Tanneris in this section—and there are many' of. them—con duct their, busiress with great economy, and hare a Manifest advantage over others,- wl o are compelled to pay extravagant prices for the Lecessary astringent, besides having to transport it long distances to the place of its consumption. . The le - ather question h one that appeals .to the- h<•els of every "man,. wothatt and child- The piesent prices: of foot-gear are too high ; too high for the pockets of the million ; and yet the profits of the business are so small thlt, many cordwainers are on the eve Of re linguishing the - business—.
