Gansey SI—datedd PRICE Of WOOL.—The editor of tho Ad vertiser is uneasy upon this subject. It is a delicate theme, and he writes as if he felt corisciousof his inability tbvsatUfy either him self or hn friends. His leading apology is that tho Tariff remains unchnnr/cd, nnd more •than intimates, that if the Tariff deserved credit for the high price of wool'last ye^ir, it should bo charged with the low price of wool now. But thcro is s^ lrtle reason, in this, that it is hardly worth noticing; for every ope knows that the Tariff is under protest.— Its repeal is threatened so soon ns Congress shall convene. It in/act is as if it were not. No one can assign any other good reason for the great variation in the price of wool. If, therefore, the fear of a repeal of the Tariff] has such an effect upon prices, what should be expected from its actual repeal ? The truth is, the triumph of loco focoism olmost invariably destroys confidence. It has got into such a hVibit of experimenting, that there is no Certainty whatever of tho contin uance of any system—much loss of a system to the repeal of which it Stands pledged. Our manufacturers, like prudent men,\*re preparing for tho consummations of loco fo- cotsm. They are forumuto 111 having timely warning of what they may expect from the POLK administration. , They would be fools if they disregarded that warning. If the Tariff is to be \repealed.\ as\ VC are assured by the official pr?an nt Washington, the price of wool canno* be expected to run\ up. Free trade prices are not Tariff prices; •nn'd none should know this better thnns-loco foco wool growers, who have been told by the Advertiser a thousand times that the tenden • yof a TanfTwas to place a fictitious value . upon woolen goods. 1 Bui._wo-do-not, after all,\ feel disposed to ifiarrel with our loco foro frienijs upon this * ibject. They are evidently anxious lo con- wnce each other that it is all owing to the Whig Tariff that wool is so low; ond ns there are a few weak minded men who will feel the liappier undeT this impression,, it would per haps be cruel to undeceive them.
