This argument ia entirely fallacious. Farts show clearly that the business is not prosper ous, bo! the reverse, and there never can be a danger of extravagant profits, where competition is so arttve in every branch of business as it is in this country. While money la so cheap in Eng land, and labor is so low, the present |ad valorem rates of duties cannot afford any sale protection to our manufactures, and the business must languish and be subjected to extreme fluctuations, until a . different policy is pursued. It is sometimes denied that intelligent labor is lower in Europe than in America. It is asserted that puddlen, roller*, and others engaged in Iron Establishments, whose knowledge and skill are paid receive sa high wages (a England as in America. jThisiserroneous.

He re plied, be received just twice at much tn Pituhurgh —two dollars here lor one there. He further stated, that the average price paid for labor which com prised skill and knowledge, in this coantry, was double the price paid in England. In England, he said, he could just live, and he, was compelled to borrow money to bring his family here. In this country the profits of his labor will in • few years famish him with a home of his own, besides ena bling hist to bring up his children with respects* bilily and give them a good education. ' While there is this great difference in wages, it is impossible for oor Iron men to compete'with the large capitalists of England, unless they reduce wagestotbepauperstaodardofthatcountry. Who is ready (or this ? Let the man that is,stand forth and ray so. Wo envy him neither his narrowness of soul, for the "estimate good men wfil pot upon bus. The following article, from the Button Courier, In relstion to Railroad Iron, is deserving of an on prejudiced consideration. ; Pxorxcflo* vox Railroads.—We have another lively iu|tance before us, illustrating the manifold beauties of the late Secretary Walker’s anti-Amer ... lean tariff Every day brings to light some new iict, showing what sort of protection the lobor, the interests, the property, and the life of the American citizen have received from the commercial policy 1 adopted by the recent administration. The manner in which the exisliog tariff affects the construction of railroads may be understood from'the following forts, for which' we are indebted to the Scientific American. Under the present system, American . railroad iron is driven completely out of the mar ket* for such a snbstitme as is here described ; 11 American and Kngiith Railroad Iron —A Staffordshire Ironmaster, in a communication to lho;Loadon Mining Journal,' brings 10 light the lact that English iron r*ila,esat present manufa/Uor ad, are iff (bo worst staff He says, the verv worst iron that can be made or purchased is now used in the manufacture of railway bars. Hot blast cinder iron, made into, white pigs, is now sooghi alter to boused for this pnrpoee, and the price of railway bare, instead of being 10j or 20s per ton more than good best iron, Is reduced to as low, and, in some instances tower, than the most common bar iron that can be found, either in Staffordshire or Wale* —complete trash; and yet some of the purchasers will have yoa believe they get the best iron, while the fact is, rails esonot be made of good beat iron at leas than from two to three pounds per ton, above . what they are now selling at The consequence is, they are no sooner laid down than in a few weeks-or months they begin to Ismiaate, spirt and crash, and are obliged to be taken up and replaced as they are found to gtve way, and thus the rail way is conunually endangering the lives of the passenger*. We have the English manulartoren confessing' -the worthies* character of the commodity ' for which we pay them, to the rain of our own arti sans and laborers, and the detrimept ot our mo»i important public works. The importation of Ed , giisb railroad iron at the present moment is etfor \ tnoui, and we have every reason to believe thai the practical' use of it justifies to the fall ex tent the description abbve given. Let' the American people, ‘‘look at these things,” and say ~ whether Urey are willing any longer to acquiesce in the existence of this anti-national system. We think'tbfcy cannot fail to perceive very shortly, if - Urey'ham not already come to the foil knowledge of the fact, that it is much better for them to do their own work and reap both the preseat profit and the future t.dvantage, ihsa to pay foreigners for do* ' lug it—and for doing it in the worst possible man ner. We*scarce«y open a newspaper from ibe middle cr Western Stales wiiboflt discovering tome new •vtdenee of the destructive operation of the ex* sting,revenue policy upon the iron roanafectorer* of that part of the country.

Prom a compulation in a recent number of the American Railroad Journal, it appears that tbo quantity of English railroad iron imported and or* dered for Importation within the past year, amounts to about 100 000 lona. Tbe cost of this iron is .estimated at five millions of dollars, which sum. under a tariff that protected American labor and American interests, would be paid in cash-to ' American mechanic* Under the present tariff it : must be paid to foreigner! lor the support of foreign iinteresu. ' A further prosecution of this estimate 'jahowa that the manufacture of this quantity of iron Ifivea employment to 17,000 workmen, who are i au-deprived of their labor by Mr. Walker** anti* l Ameneaa system. Each laborer may be sup* ; poaed to have, on an averace, a family of four per* ■pna—and that we aee 65,000 people to the United States deprived of their daily sapport by the stroke «f a pen applied to a single article of the thousands which compose tbe list of commodities in the ...tariff* 1 But the consequences of'this rninons* system reach cull farther.; Keeping our calculations only to this ope article of railroad iron, let us examine how other departments of boaioeM are affected by the preference of foreign to American labor.' A moment** reflection will exhibit to U y elear-„ handed man tbe difference between these 65,000“ persona well paid, 1 and tbe name persons with no money in their posketa. They ore not the only Zuferera by the aystem which deprives them of a Eviiif. • With the five million* which an Ameri «afi system would put into their pockets, they be* name profitable customers to every branch of trade and industry.

Has tfaeir hostility to foe Secretary of State obliterated from their minds the (ruth of transactions of such recent dale ? Do they forget that Mr. McLane, who was appointed Minister to Englaad, in Jiiue, 1515, (long before foe meeting of Congress,) carried out with him from l President Polk authority ‘‘to adjust the question on tbe parallel of 49 degrees V' It is true thu fact was not known .at tbe time. U only became pub lic after Mr. McLane'* return from his mission. It is true that, while he wju seeking “to adju«t the question on the parallel of 49 degrees," the Union and all the partisans of the Administration were vaporing about “fifty four forty.” But that does uot alter the fact; and so fur,from Its being true that “foe course of Mr. Clayton and his Whig collerg in Congress caused the 491 h degreo to be agreed to,” we do not believe that Mr. Clayton or Mr. Crittenden (the latter of whom prepared tbe joint resolution for notice to terminate tbe joint oc cupancy of tbe territory) uttereJ a word in debate, on the question of the tide at all.

But yesterday there came positive information that the removal of the seat ol Government to Toronto was decided on, and instructions to most of the officials to movehilber=forthwith, and they will depart thither in a few days by a steamer called by the auspicious name of the “Lawn.’’ j Thii mdst important step baa caused the (treat* est eensatibu here, especially among the officials, who with their I families had made arrangements f-r a permanent residence here, many having bought, built or leased houses; and to add to tt,lhey are appnsbd that they will not be paid the expen* sea oi moving, except authorited by a special vote of the Legislature. What will be the resnlt of tbit faew step it is impossible to foresee. It might not be serious immediately, but it must eventually. It is, as t said before, a virtual dissolution of the Union The French Canadians will never consent to go to Upper Canada, where every thing is strange to them, and alien to their habits, and the British look upon them as foreigners; although,'for the two or three years the parliament has to nip, it is possible those actually in the house may assent in sufficient numbers for- the sake of what they can make out. in the time, in the shape of power nod place And, if the scheme of alternating with Quebec is carried cur. beside* the expense and inconveni* 'ence, the Upper Canada members, for the like rea sons, will be equally adverse to coming down.— The British member* also of the district below* Kingston, will be equally averse to g.iiug to To ronto. IfCauada is to be a United Province, Mon treal moat be the capital, iq spite of all lncoDveoi' ences, and in apite of the personal spleen of any Governor General. The gentnl opinion is, that the Cabinet ia on the eve of disruption, and every one ia asking a question which no one can answer—What ooxt? Gold on the Gil*.— We learn from a private letter, dpied at Legrange, Jexas, October 12, that a company which staged from that point for Cali* fornia in May last, had been beard from. The party bad arrived at the Gila river, from which point they write that appearances indicate that gold !.« a* plentiful in that region a* it is deacrib* ed to be on (be Sacrajnento. The difficulty in procuring provision* from the settlement of Texas, which are the nearest sources ol supply, made it impossible for them to slop to dig for the pro* cious metal. They write that parties taking that route for’ California should go in strong companies, as the Dumber of Apache Indiana which infest the way makes it dangerous for small ones to attempted ii. Several small parties are aid to have been cut otf by them. 1 j A number of respected persons about Lagrange, who had been driven away from that part of the country upon charge* that they belonged to the ‘-dan of regalutors,” had returned, after investiga* tiou bad shown they were wrongfully gccused.— It appears go have been a concerted scheme on the part of the depredators, (hat such of them as might be arrested should implicate the most deserv ing citizen*, with a view to produce opposition to those wbo>rere endeavoring to rid the country ot (hem.

How flnbdoa a Vleloao Hors*. The following fact occured yesterday. A beau tiful and high spirited borae would never allow a shoe lo be put on his feet, or any person to handle bia feel, without a resort to every species ot power and mcanglo control him. At one. time he was nearly crippled by being pot in the stocks; he of lerward* thrown down and fettered; at another time one oftmr moslexperienced horse shoers was unable lo manage him by the aid of as many hands as could approach. In an attempt to shco this horse ye»teydav.’be resisted all efforts, kicked a side everything but an anvil, and came near kii\ ling himself against that, and finally was broagbt back to hi* ; *tsb!e unshod. This waa hi* only de lect; in ail Other respect* be is gentle and perfectly docile, especially in harness. But this defect wus just on ihe yve of consigning him to the plough, where he might work barefoot, when, by mere ac cident, an officer in our service, lately returned from Mexico, was panting, and being made ac. quainled wjth the difficulty, applied a complete remedy following simple process:— He took £ ; cnrd afo-ut the size of a common bed cord, put (be mouth of the horse like a bit, and tied it tightly on the animal’s head, passing his left ear under the string, not painfully tight, but tight enough in keep ihe ear down, and the cord in its place.? This done, ho patted the horse gently *m the sidefof the head and commanded him to follow, and'{nstantly the horse obeyed, perfectly subdued ai{d as geolle and obedient as a well trained dog;iulfenog bis feel to belifted' with *n tire impunity, and acting in ail respects like.an old stager. 'That simple siring thus tied made him sconce as qoofle and obedient as any one could deklire. ? The gentleman who thus furnished this exceed dingly simplh means ol sobdning a very danger ous propensfer, muma ted that it is practised in Mexico America la the management of wild honfes. Be this as it may, he deserves the thanks all owners of such horses,.and spe cially the tbqnks of those whose business it may be to shoe or‘groom tbe animals. Hit!* against laval Lands.’’ A correspondent of the Gardener’s says, “la a oa land surveying by n French professor on..mathemalics, at the college'’ of Blois, the lecturer informed bia audience that in the puri chase of hilly or uneven land, its extentis estima ted or measured, not according to the area o( tne surface, bot Recording to (he area of its horizontal base; because he added it is a well known (act in agricatture, that no more can be grown on a hill or slope than'on a horizontal piece of land equal to its base. Now, as this ‘well known fact’ is not only not well:known, but even strongly, though in my opinion absurdly disputed amongst- many of our Yorkshire farmers, perhaps you wit!' be kind enough lo give it publicity in your next number. Perhaps of t&uoss nod other low or creeping plants, a greater cropt may be grown on a slope than on a horizontal piece of land equal to its base £bat with regard to vertically growing plants, such”as hay grass, corn, Fourth street This will be found a delightful arti cle nfbeverage in families, and particularly (or sick Baku's Ukuxa —An unproved Chocolate prcpuri lion, being a combination of Cocoa nut; innocent n vigorating and palatable, bigJily recommended parin ularly for invalids.
