The western agricultural States have
been and are now increasing in population,
witha rapidity truly astonishing, arul we
have rem-on to believe, that the esliumtcs
for the year 1846. will show an immc-nse
increase in the agricultural pruduclfltlflhe
whole country; indeed, we would um be
Inrprised to find the amount quuc double
that 0f1845.

The States last na'ncd are wholly agri
cultural. and of course will be greatly
benefitted by an increased foreign ticmnnti
tor agricultural products. 'l‘he'rvpeut oi
the British Corn Laws it is beilcveti by
some, will greatly benefit lhe Americnii
farmer. and if so. we may look lurmcroaa
ed Ictivity in that branch of American in
dustry throughout the Union, but especial-
Iy in the western States. where laml can
be purchased [or a mere trifle. But.be
that. as it may, we think it but fair to pre
sume. that the census of 1850 will exhibit
an increase of populalinn in the States at
Ohio, ludlana, Illinois; Michigan, Tennes
seelM‘lssouli, and lhe territories of [own
and Wisconsin. immensely greater than

The Whole production of the clip of wool
111 the United States. necmdmg to the can
we ol 1810, was 33,000.000 lbs. The
clip of last year was. according to such
returns as have been made lrotn various
States, and estimated in the others, ‘ll.-
000,000 pounds. ltnnbrtation, as has al
ready been stated, ,ll,000,0U() pounds.
Probably no part oltthe tariff tlrception
has been so We“ kept Up as this which re
]lalee to wool. \thnever the farmer has
complained to the woolen innntilziclurer,
that he finds this loreign wool inlerlerin:
with his own stock. he has been told it
was only a course kind ol the article. and
one that did not compete with the Ameri
can \rool. In the meantime the producer
of wool has been called upon to thout
"lluxza lor the 'l‘arill!" and has been
lulled into aecurity by the false alalemenls
that he was protected by that law. I
The New York 'l'ribune has been fore
most hitherto in this cry against the duty
on wool, on the ground that it was ola
coarse quality that was a value less thnnl
seven cents. It was well known, howev
er, that much of the wool entered at this
price is made up into fine cloth. The
mode by which it escnpes 11 high duty is,
by mixing it w'ifh dirt and coarse wool,
thus diminishing it in value. But IINB
will hardly eseape the vigilance of the cus
tom-house hereafter.
