"THE PLOT THICKENS." Momfactures Letter to Mr. Urbster. The anxiety to see the letter addiessed by the manufacturers to Mr. E a src R, approving of the "compromise proposition, - is so great, on the past of the honest and sincere svpv,rters of the Tariff policy, that we find it necrssary to se-publish IL Here it is : WASIIINGTON. July 21, IS•16 Sun We have been made acquainted with the substance of a proposition which it is understood you think of submitting to the l..'etiate as an amend meat to the bill now pending - in that body for re ducing the duties on imports and other purposes. We understand the proposition to be in effect to strike out all after the enacting clause, and insert "That from and after the first day of December next there shall be a rah alas tf 25 per teat. of the duties, whethrt spa or ad-rulotent, now impos ed by law, on articles of imported merchandise are now charged, excepting brandy and other ! spirits distilled from grain or other material and, wines. Prarided, twr,rtheless. That duties on anti- Iles now charged with more than 30 per cent, shall not be reduced below 30 per cent." We are fully of the opinion. as persons deeply in , tereatedin the manufactures of the reugrry, that it this' amendment be adopted, and the bill so amended pass into a law, the various branches of domestic industry will be so far supported and sustained that that those engaged in them can five, and if passed by such a majority as may promise steadiness and durability, we should hail the passage of the Lill kith great gratification, and remain most respect fully your obedient servants, THOMAS LAMB, President of the Boston sugar rennery.

WARREN MURDOCK, Manufacture of iron in Wareham, Mass. GARRICK MALLERY, J. SCHOLFIELD, Jr.. of Boston To the Hon. p.INIEL WEIisTEU, U. S Senate. The Washington correspondent of the North American, in a letter dated Washington July 30 , states that Secretary WALKED, after a free con ference with one of the Pennsylvania Senators prepared a compromise proposition himself. The writer says: "It was then suggested the proposition should be reduced to writing, and Air. Walker drew op with his own hand an amendment, to reduce the du ties under the act of rf,42, 30 per cent. on all articles rated above 30 per cent., pledging to it at the same time, the support of the Democratic party in the Se nate. Between this and the amendment prepared by Mr. Webster there is a difference of but five per cent., leaving the specific duties of the act of 1842 untouched. The amendment said to have been prepared by Secretary WAI.III, had it been adop ted would have given to the country a permanent and perhaps, satisfactory revenue system. Why , we ask, was not the amendment of the Secretary adopted? Because, forsooth, Messrs. Car Trast n EN and EVANS and other leading and influential whig a in the Senate, though professingto be the friends of the Tariff policy refused to vote for any amend ment of the bill. Mr, CNITTENDEN, duririg the debate on the 27th, said "I DONT WANT TO BETTER THIS BILL AND I CHEERFULLY AVOW .IT." Mr. Crittenden also refused to vote for the amendmentoffered by Mr.CA.MEIION, which would. if adopted, have made the bill acceptable, MEM *as a permanent measure, even to the manafactu rem themselves. Hear him: Mr. C7itleaden expressed his regret that the gen tlemen from Pennsylvania had thought proper to introduce any limber amendments to the bill.— For one, hr would not rote for any further amend meats, although he might not vote against them. We hope the Pennsylvania Senator alluded to in the letter of the correspondent of the 1%.70rth Ameri can, will not withhold from the public a full histo ry of his intercourse with Senator Walker, and what followed in the Senate chamber. A full state ment ot'facts is all that is now wanting to "put the saddle on the right horse"--all that is wanting to show that a fair and honorable compromise of the Tariff question—a compromise which would have secured adequate protection to the interests of P"nnsylvania, was defeated hy certain whig Sena tors refusing to vote for the further amendment of the Bill. Let the people, we say, have light on the subject. So violently, it is said, was the opposition of Messrs. CSITTENDEN, EVANS and other influen tial whig Senators to the permanent settlement of the Tariff policy of the country, that Mr. Veen sTzn was compelled to yield his own judgment, and actually refused to present the 'compromise proposition" prepared by himself, though assured by the manufacturers in the letter given above , that as a compromise measure likely to he perma nent, they would bail its adoption "trig& great r.ruti firation:' We ask for these facts the calm con. sideration of every good citizen. What confidence, we ask, ought to he placed in the patriotism of statesman who would declare in his place in the Senate Chamber, as did Mr. CRITTENDVN, in refer ence to the Tariff DONT WANT TO BETTER THAT BILL, AND 1 CIIEERFCL: I LY AVOW IT.- L.trrn mom CA Ltrou.,9 A.-A party of gentle. men, six in number. says:the St. Louis Reporter of the 30th ult, arrived here yesterday on the steam. er Nimrod, who am direct•trom California, having left that country as lute as the :22d of April last . They report having met the party commanded by Capt.

Between that point and Fort Laramie, they continually met small companies, and at the Fort, met the company of Governor Boggs. All the emigrants seemed in good spirits, and highly delighted with their future prospects. The party to which our informant belonged, consisted of sixteen, on leaving the frontiers of California. They were of both sexes and various ages. The gentlemen rho have arrived, left the others and travelled on in advance. Those not 3et arri.d, were generally persons who had been but a short time in the country, but who had become dissatisfied with it. It would seem that a came of dissatisfact;on among the people from the United States who visit that country. is the impossibilit y , n the unsettled state of the government, to obtain good titles to their lands. Another is, that the country is far better suited to purposes of stock-raising, than those of agriculture. The sod, though supt u a luxuriant growth spontaneously., is found to be inferior for purposes of cultivation. \Vhen turned up, it -bakes," and is not easily convertible int o mould. Many of the older emigrants from the Isnited States, however, wele satisfied and determined to remain. Some of these wirer:eared much diill culty in cro s sing the mountains, and met with heavy losses. Among others, a gentleman by the name of Joseph Chiles front Jgckson county, in this State, who had gone to California for the pur pose of establishing extensive mills onhhe Sacrali• cios, lost much of his property, but eventually, by his enterprise and industry, succeeded, partially, in carrying out his plans. As in other countries newly setileirbFrht.qui s glo-Saxon race, there exists in California a class of people led there solely by the love of adventure. It is these, principally, uho complain of the coml. try, and wk° are ready to leave it fur other wilds. or to return to their old haunts. Our informant thinks that the main objections to California will be removed by a permanent change of government.

The editor of the Gazette contrary to our ex pectation, perseveres in his efforts to "hunibug" the farmer in relation to the duty on wool. :We . pre sented our readers on Monday with the testimony of well-informed eastern wool growers and wool dealers—men fully competent to give the facts and correct history of the operation and effect pro duced by the five per cent. provision of the act of 1842. They all declare explicitly that the wool imported under the five per cent. provision of the act of 184:2, comes directly and ruinously in com petition with the American farmer. As the editor perseveres in his efforts to deceive the fariners, we will again direct the attention of the public to the testimony above referred to. The mere ipee disit of the editor of the Gazette, we opine, however, will be regarded as worth but little compared with the testimony of experienced eastern wool grow- HENRI" S.

A fortnight has not yet elapsed since a woman entered an isolated house,', situated in the above locality, and begged its in mates, consisting of a peasant, his wife, and their infant, to give her shelter for the night. No soon er was the prayer made than it was- granted with that hospitality for which the inhabitants of north ern Spain are proverbial, and the stranger sat down to rock the baby's cradle, while the patron lit a candle for the purpose of preparing supper. She and her husband then observed that the new corner. whose rough voice had previously excited their attention, had a very masculine aspect, and they were not long in finding out that a man, disguised as a female, was beneath the roof. One rapid glance enchanged between the dismayed couple sufficed to show that each had made this alarm ing discovery at the same time, and the peasant, under pretext of looking after some pigs, went out to seek the assistance of his nearest neighbors.— No sooner was he gone than the pretended woman, assuming a ferocious aspect, approached his trem bling companion, who precipitately shut herself tip in an adjoining room. The robber, for such lie was, tried to burst open the door, but, finding it resisted all his attempts, desisted, threatening that if a sum of money re- ! ceived the day before by the peasant for sonic maize was not immediately given up. lie would', kill the child which was sleeping near the rnisere ant. The poor woman. half dead with fright. and not imagining, that such a threat could be put into execution, refused to lest e her place of refuge. and in a minute afteravards the screams of the little innocent and its subsequent silence, sudden and profound, told its agonized mother that the mon ster had murdered it.

This done, she fell to the ground' in a fainting tit. just as the veasant returned with. aid, wlffire honor arid consternation may be mil' agined on discovering his infant dead and welter ing in its blood. the body of a decapitated man ex-', tended on the door, and his unfortunate wife in a ! :55 oon with the robber s head at her feet."

The ninth day came, and we struck a small streak of good luck—a horse gi‘e out and broke down, plump out in the centre of an open prairie' —not a stick big enough to tickle a rattlesnake with, let alone killing one. Just had time to save the critter by shootin' hint, and that was all, for in three minutes longer he'd have diet! a natural death. It did lit take us long to butcher him, nor to cut off sonic chunks of meat and stick 'em on our ramrods. but the cookin . was another matter. I piled up a heap of prairie grass, for it was high and dry. and sot it on fire. but it flashed tip like powder. and went out as quick But--" -But, - put in one or his hearers, -but did you cook your horse-meat after !huff' ~ 1'r..110%1, “Why, the fire caught the high gras.s close by, and the wind earned the dames streakin' across the prairie. I followed the fire, holding my chunk of meat directly over the blaze, and the way we went it was a caution to anything short of locomotive duin s . Once in a while a little flurry of wind would come along, and the Me would ge t a f ew yards the start, but I d brush upon her, lap her with my chunk, and then we'd have it again, nip and chuck. You ne‘erseed such a tight race—it was beautiful.- "Very, wee no doubt," ejaculated one of the listners. interrupting the mad crag just in season to give him a little breath: "but did you cook your meat in the end!" Not had 1 did nt; I chased the d—d file a mile and a half, the alinightiest hardest race you ever heer .I tell on. and never give it up until I run her right plumb into a wet marsh: there the tire and chunk of horse-meat came out eaten—a dead heat, especially the meat." 'But was . nt it cooked?" put in another of the listners. ••Cooked! no! just crusted over a little. You don't cook broken down horse flesh very easy. no how; but when it comes to chasing up a prairie fire with a chunk of it, I don't know which is the toughest, the meat or the job. !l'ou'd have laughed to have split yourself to haVe seen me in that race—to see the fire kw e me at times, arid then to FCC me brush in' up on her again; humpin . and mov in' myself as though I was runnin' agin' some of those big ten mile an hour Gilderslecves in the old Slaw. But I'm a goin' over to Sack Haynes to get a cocktail and some breakfast-r—l II see you all down among robbers on the Rio Grande." And so saying, Bill Dean stocked off. I saw the chap this morning in front of a ; Mexican funda, trying to talk Spaniiih with Greaser, and endeavor ing to convince him That he was a "d—d robber?'' such is one of Bill Deans stories—lf I could only make it as effective', on paper as he did in the tel ling, it would dra‘oa laugh from those fond of the ludicrous.

His feelings are the warmer frotn observing, the "beginning and the ending”—thrown almost in juxtaposition—of so many nostrums and kindred pre parations equally loud in their pretensions, and much more industriously presented to the- public; while his preparation noiaclessly advances, even to remote places, soothing and comforting the afflicted; and permanently grafting itself upcin the affections of new friends, thus continually widening the circle of its usefulness. Although, well satisfied "that his medicine has, as it were, a principle of perpetuity in it, yet he is obliged to his friends for the most sub stantial evidence of the fact. In its natural histery, if - you please, the Wilier) Pill differs from most other preparations in not being originally made for sale, or with a viewto pecuniary profit;- while as every body . knows, the greatest. tyro (as a general thing)- no sooner begins to dabble in drugs than he casts about for some cheap prepara tion, or must 'get up,' as the phrase is, soiloothing-- anything that will sell. Often he attempts it under an assumed or fictitious name, as though conscious his own were insufficient to sell it.- The difference then between the Wilson Pill and the preparations I have just indicated, would appear to be this: The consciousness of the valve of my pill originated the idea of putting them onside for money, and at a price. The consciousness -- of the value of money originates in most instances the many preparations I have alluded to; and the price most likely *to take' is always first carefully considered, and the pill or otherpreparation made and graduated to suit it. .The one is a mammy, and comes from the great Arcana of Universal Nature; the Other a trick or invention, and comes from a not very popular quality of lam mum. Nature. • Reader! the difference here is great. In one instance the value attached to the PILL. is the starting point; in the other , the MONEY. But it not probable that some of the many prepara tions having even such paternity were aecidentaltsi good, but that possibly by this process of ."getting -up" as they call it, by puffing and blowing, as awe clean wheat, they have been'"got up" too high be fore their specific gravity bad been carefully ascer tained, and have blown off never to be hihrd et, with other chaff—some lighter, some heavier. - Whatever may be the rationales I must repeat it, that I am most profoundly thankful to: my friends for their discrimination in not consigning my discovery to that compenduous category of "inventions that did not answer"—of "tricks that won't win.." - The Wilson Pills are useful as a GE.NERAY remedy,' and may be kept and taken, in proper doses, in fam ilies, as a preventative of general ill-health, or dis ease of whatever name, by any member of the fam ily, without any fear of the consequences -of expo sure in the ordinary pursuits of business. itrThey may always be bad in any quantity either. proprietor, in Penn street, below Marbury, and of the principal.
