Tariff ox causes are com? bining to ii'i'iro, we fear the manufac? ture of Salt in the central pati of this State, which has heretofore proved source of such profit to the Stato, and of labor nnd conseqiieiit to thousands immediately engaged in its various branches. To sonn- extent tliis may be owing to the complaints, which of late nre loud and fre? quent; i.f the quality of the article often sent put It.the Ohondaga works; but much more of the difficulty may be attributed fd a lack of efficient to the stagnation in business brought about in this Stab; by benumbing influence of tbe Loco-r.

ui policy. Weseo that already foreign Suit is coining in by way of the St. Lawrence in large quantities. A correspondent of the Albany Advertiser snys, that a largo amount hu? recently arrived at mainly for markets on the upper takes, while a large quantity ofNew Vork gait lies at Oswego waiting a market, which ir cannot find. The Canadians have the advantage of tts in this trade, in consequence of their being able to send wheat, bought i.i the States, to Kng Iand as Provincial escaping the heavy duties which British Free Trade imposes upon foreign grain.

They ran thus pay a much higher price in the Western States for our grain ex? portation than our own millers can afford to give. Salt is for them a very convenient ballast on their upward tlint they are preparing to sup? ply ail onr Weitetti grojin-growing country with this indispensable commodity. New-York is thus made a double loser, being deprived at once of the salt duties and of the canal tolls on this Western wheat. Our Provincial neighbors are prosecuting theirimprovementB of the St. Lawrence with great energy rapidity and, as tbe Advertiser's cor? respondent suggests, a vessel may soon tuke a car? go of salt at Liverpool anil, discharging it at Chica? go, return with a lotid of effectually destroying our market for salt, which we can pro? duce in unlimited abundance, and draining our Treasury of the tolls on the exported grain.

More titan half the Syracuse salt-works are now lying idle from this very cause. It is of little use to suggest desirable legislation, so 'long as we are under the of a selfish tyrant whose Will is ac? cidentally the Law of the hind. Henry Clay in Correspondence of the Albany Daily Advertiser. Lancaster, August 1842. IIarky of the West is going it with perfect rush in no mistake.

Previous to the late Scott Convention at Harrisburg, we hu supposed that the Whigs of Pennsylvania were divided upon tho question of the Presidency? but to our utter astonishment we find that wo are all oa the snrno side. This Scott Convention came off last a half dozen Counties were represented, and in the said half dozen rep? resented Counties, nine tenths of the Whigs at this time tiro Clay men, and it will soon be a race between the other tenth part who shall get over first. The Clay men themselves ate astonished at iheir own the annals of things po liiical make no mention of suah perfect unanimity of feeling, and such unbounded enthusiasm, us tiuw prevails among the Whigs of Pennsylvania. this same feeling exists throughout the Union, it will not require even the son a prophet" to foretell the result, of the next Presidential election. Henry- Clay will walk over the course in the most approved Tippecanoo style: ami the aura popularia which wafted Old Tip to thu Presi? dency, will b-v as a zephyr's whisper to the popu? lar whirlwind upon which Harry of the West" will ride to the White Them tny sen? he must shut his eyes und reject the evidence of his own senses who don't believe in 'em.

Lancaster County gave over four thousand majority for Harrison: she has already pledged herself to give fine, thousand majority for Hknky Clay, with the- understanding thai she can add five hundred more tbe hark of ii necessary. licit roiin for Protection. In an nrttclo about the New-York salines pub? lished some days since in the Ono; dugn Standard, and republished in Saturday's Argus, the follow? ing paragraphs There is another reason why die manufacture of salt at pu springs should be protected and encouraged, vit: The competition between our salt and the foreign in the Baslern market is oo doubt an Important cause of the very low price of the foreign article in New-York: for it does not low itiit. bei uuse it can bo imported cheap, tbe consum ers would also obtain it cheap, it iherie was no American salt to compete with Tbe contrary i- the fact; for wu. to the commence? ment of the manufacture of coarsi salt at bur springs in i ioor 1821, tlie priceof foreign salt by tbe cargo in New York, was from, sixty cents per bushel; and ilur the war with Great Britain, it was two dollars per liushel and but for the Onondnga springs; it might bring the enormous price again, if be interrupted.

If you will take pains to examine, you will find that in the proportion that nur infant manufactures have hem en abh supply ihe Eastern market wiUi salt, bus tbe price ibe article been cheapened." 'fhr fitct that ftv enee? iu "inc manufacture here tepdaoiu the price of the foreign at ticle, is of Ii on; works to go to decay, there im he no doubt bnl the importers and heavy dealers for I rear, a rich hatveaL We venture predict that on the pr.ee would be higher, both here ami si, than it lias during the five rears," A better reason for the protection of domestic a.i- lines an scarcely be given than the one quoted. Not only has an American enter prisoand labor in this department of industry been successfully encouraged; but the price of an arti universal necessity has been greatly reduced by tin- competition thu-? excited. Tbe Argus tac? itly admits the potency of the argument in favor oi protection in this o-o, and what is here said ot salt is true of'every othei article of American man? ufacture. The effect of encouraging our domestic manufactures has been to cheapen the price of the article produced and gradually to render us inde pondl at of rbreign work-shops. Is not this a pol ii niclt coiumenda itself to every Patriot and rt s.M ami which Ute support of the whole People?

BY (3REELEY McELRATH. If. NO. 106. Shnvrneeloin Bank-Election in Illi? nois, Correspondence of Tke Tribune.

Galena, Illinois, August 1, 1342. Absence from home and ill health must be the apology of your correspondent in the Lead Minos for his long silence. Coming hither from my own New-England, Clime of the brave the nigh heart's home," I have been the subjert of a full share of the siis eases of the climate. Since 1 lust had the pleasure of addressing you i we had another severe sluwk in the monetary world. At that time the notes of the Bank of Il? linois at Shawneetown constituted almost our en? tire circulation.

Sin- was to resume specie pay? ments on the Loth of June, and the people had every confidence in her ability to resume, ami in he honesty and integrity of those who cou troled her arVairs. Every man who could get Shawneetown money thought he was safe. The miners took it freely fur their mineral and manv laid it by as specie funds. The mother Bank was about to establish a branch in this city, and our merchant anticipated some relief from the Eastern exchange which it. was said tlte Bank would throw into the market.

The loth of June came, but with it, unfortunately, no resumption of specie payments by tlie Shawneetown Bank. The consequence was that her paper went down immediately to fifty rents on the dollar. In common with almost every body, I was grossly deceived in the Shawneetown Bank, and 1 uow freely confess it. Our people have been so often deceived, cheated und swindled bv the Western Banks that they have naturally lust all confidence in Bunk Our Staple (lead) should secure to us the best currency in the coun? try, and the principal transactions in it are now in specie. It is now dull at $2 25 per hundred, specie, jvliich is lower than it has been for manv years.

This is election day in Illinois, and the contest is going on very quietly in this city. The 1 have said in my previous letters, depends en? tirely upon the Southern part of the State. It Joseph Duncan runs ahead of his party among the Suckers, his chance of success will be fair. On the other hand, if he only gets the votes of the Whigs in the South he is badly beaten. In the North the Whigs will lust: heavily on the vote at the Presidential election in 1840.

Van Buren then canied the Stale by majority. The Locos in this section are united to a matt on Ford utid are making a vigorous rally. P. S. The polls have just been closed in this city and the vut? stands for Duncan.411 Enough litis been beard from the balance of the County to rentier it certain that the Locos have carried the County of Joe Daviess, which gave 4U9 majority for Gen.

Harrison. This looks badly. For the New-York Tribune. The Ci'oton IVnlor. Mr.

Editor: The introduction of the Croton water into the city has civen rise to much specula? tion as the best plan to be adopted to enable the citizens generally, to enjoy those benefits, cither real or imaginary, which the public press has for many years been teaching us were to be derivod from It. Some of these speculations found their way into your widely circulated puper, bnt it appears to the that none of the suggestions which 1 have seen published will meet the expectations of the public. If the general cleanliness and health of the city are to be promoted, tho poor must be supplied, and this will never be done, if they are to depend on their landlords to introduce the water into their houses. Certainly the most equitable plan, and the one which above all others will se? cure equal advantage to all, will be to place hy? drants at convenient distances in all the streets, which be free to the public, for all the uses to which tbft pumps are now applied; and also to supply the water to those who desire to have it in their own bouses, at a very moderate for a three story dwelling including baths and sta? ble, ten dollars per annum'; and for a two storj boit-e with similar privileges, seven doilurs; taverns, livery stables, manufactories, to be charged in proportion to the quantity of watei used. Many public houses ought to pay from one to two hundred dollars per annum, and some a mach higher rate.

From these a very considerable in? come would be derived, and the deficit should be incorporated with the ordinary city tax, so that property should bear the burden uccording to its value. The reduction in the cost of insurance would seem not only to justify, but to point out such a course but if any of your readers can sug? gest a better one, they will much oblige the writei by doing so, through the medium of columns. As allusion has been made to the pumps, and as tbi? whole cost of maintaining them is only three thousand dollars per annum, 1 would suggest that be continued, until public opinion.will sauc tiou their removal.

Boston, August 3. 1SU. Tu the Editor of The 'Tribune: Having seen several paragraphs in the Tribune relative to the best manner of collecting a revenue to defray the cost of the Gruton Water, I hate thoighl it wuitld not bo uninteresting to you to be informed of the prices paid in the city of Boston for the use of soft water brought into our city from Jamaica Pond bv the Boston Aqueduct Company. I have made inquiry of a person who is in the em? ploy of that Company and he has furnished me with the following, viz: Rent paid by a family of 5 persons.f 10 per nun. do over and iletexceeding 10.J2 do for a large private family.1? do large boarding bouses.

New Statt. bill to authorize the Fund Commissioners to borrow on the credit of the Slate to be applied to the payment of the arrearages due contractors, has passed the House.

It provides for the issue of Stock bearing an interest of 10 per cent, payable at the State Treasury, or (if the money cunnot be obtained on such terms) in New-York, redeemable after 1850? the Stock not to be sold for less than par. A more fatal blow to the interest of tlie State could not have been conceived. If the bill passes the Senate, the credit and character of the State is prostrated at once. More than bill de? feats its own object; the money cannot be obtained under it. State Journal.

The blighting scourge uf Intemperance stalks through the selecting its victims among all Classes, and, whon once fastened upon them, rarely leaves thenvtntil it has dragged them dow through a career offolJy, madness and disease.into the grave, i The heart-breaking grief of wives and children, and thousand moral and physical woes and miseries accompany it. We want a radical remedy fur this moral one be i found To answer this question, we must ex i amine tkc causes which produce Intemperance. Intemperance, like Poverty, Vice and Crime, is the result of a false system of Society. Intem? perance is an EJfect. and if we wish to eradicate it, wo must eradicate the Causes which produce it.

There are four principal cuuses of drunken? ness; wo will examine und show how rt.rv can he removed, and with them oiw of the de? plorable evils of our false Societies. Great efforts are wow making by the Temperance 1 Societies to effect a Temperance Reform, hut their efforts can only be partially successful, because they merely combat the Effect; they do not aim at up? rooting the Causes. The good and great results which those Societies are now producing may also be but temporary, for if in ten or twenty years hence the present Temperance movement dies away, In lempcrance may spread again and as prevalent us 'Ihe error which people commit is a wish to effect one-sided or partial reforms; they wish to do away with isolated L'viis without going to the foundation of them they wish to correct, as we said, mete Ejfccis, and leave the Causes un? touched, which reproduce the same effects they cut the stalk und leave the roots, which bring forth new stalks again. Wo will first examine the ptimary causes of Drunkenness, and then briefly show how the causes and the effect can be extirpated together. This in? quiry is one of interest and importance.

We will show that Association offers a remedy for the scourge of a remedy which will be radical and permanent. The first cause of Drunkenness is prolonged, dreary und monotonous Labor, without change or relief. The lower orders of the Laboring Mn.ss toil constantly without variety or diversion at re? pugnant rounds of in dirty and con? fined manufactories and workshops others un canals, often in the mud and water: others again on the lonely ocean, enduring every hardship, and living in a maaner unsuited to brutes and others in ways equally as oppressive, which exhaust, de? grade and wear them out, in body and soul. The portion of the Laboring Muss, of which we have spoken, have scarcely any moral and intel? lectual pleusures and occupations, and few or no varied and agreeable Social Relations. The hu? man Heart demands, however, and demands im? periously, variety, excitement, pleasing occupa? tions, enthusiasux: and congenial Social Relations.

The Laboring Classes are Men; the same Divine Spark which animates tho most favored beings in Society, animates their toil-worn frames they feel instinctively the aspirations of the human Soul; they want some Happiness, some Delights, but they cannot obtain them life is a blank as to scene of monotony and toil. The inebriating cup is before them it procures a con? fused and brutal excitement, but an excitement which is not without a certuin exhiliration and exaltation, and it brings for the time forgetfulness of, and indillerencc to, the various evils which press upon them. Is it surprising that men who are deprived of all of exaltation and gay excitement, which the mind at times so strongly requires, whose lives uro a scene of care and depression, should lake to the intoxicating howl No. it is not; and so long as the condition of the Laboring Mass is not improved and long as they are not relieved from overburthening lubor nnd harassing cares, so long will tho lict Druiiku.nl??the Pinn of Monotonous Toil? exist. The second muse of Drunkenness is to be found in Habit ami Example; Drunkards of-'this class are composed of men belonging to all elusses of society, and who, from being constantly invited to drink, and having liquor before them at the dinner table, in meetings, parlies.

acquire gindualJy the habit of it. With time the stomach becomes accustomed to the artificial stimulus, und cannot only, not do without it, but the dose must be in? creased to make up lor the earing out of the sys? tem nnd the maintenance of equilibrium. This class of Drunkards can he reformed if the temptation he taken out of the they can he induced early to abstain from exciting drinks, so that the habit is nut contracted they can easily diverted from the ruin that awaits them. With this the Temperance Societies can easily succeed hut with the ether classes, they niMSl first extirpate the CJitses to obtain a general and permanent success. The third cause'oi Drunkenness is to be found in ihe disappointments, despair, dejection, and terrible violations of feelings, which are produced by sudden ruin und reverses of fortune, by failures in undertakings, by want of success and loss of hope after protracted efforts, by thwarted ambition, bad conduct of cbildien, Sec.

Our sucieries are subject to constant revulsions and changes. The Rich are often precipitated from aftlaencu into poverty; they are also frequently disappointed in their children, who turn out gam? blers, drunkards, or criminals: hope in life is lost, and trouble, the desire "of forgetfulness or the want of excitement, drive many to the fatal cup. Other persons, again, are contending agairst the chances of fortune: they spend the best part of their lives in endeavoring to attain some desired end, but without success; a period at length ur rives when the energy of the soul is broken, when i they lose hope and gave up; apathy and prostra- tion follow, and intemperance, or some other vice. jaak.es them its victim. from these and various other causes, are overwhelmed by disap? pointment, and sink into dejection and despair: a fearful crisis then generally follow some are i saved by Religion, some become hypocosdriaeal, some even crazy, some commit suicide (this is more commor.

in France than in this country)? but a great many become Drunkards. To eradi? cate the Drunkenness which atises from this source, we must do away with the causes: we must establish a of society which will secure man against these terrible revulsions and trials. The fourth cause of Drunkenness is more Jitricult I to understand, as it arises from a passion or sea'j ment in Hum iiNature which is not comprehended. There is implanted in man a passion of enthusiasm, of exaltation, which is beautiful and noble in itself, aud which, in a true system of a So? ciety that would make use of it properly and allow it a legitimate and nutuaol action, would produce the finest results. But in our stale and monotonous Societies there is no use for this passion there is no outlet, no svstem of action for it, and it is smothered.

la some persons this passion is very iutense; it must act, it must find vent, but as there are no means of doing so in a true natural way, 10 ANN-STREET. AUGUST 13. the persons -limiilared by it seek in alcohol! in opium end in some other preparations for the appeasing this restless excitement, and rind in an artificial, false ard bruta! exaltation or enthusiasm, which is a reversed image or per? version of the true sentiment. Jn some characters this perverted excitement takes a dreamy cast: in others it becomes violent: in others again it rises to madness. Drunkenness from this cause has existed in all ages and riimatcs, and there can be hut little hope r.f eradicating it without a social Reform? without the Organization of a Society, which will satisfy fully man's spiritual nature, and allow a true and noble expansion r.f the sentiment of es altation and enthusiasm which burns within i soul.

To up. we find tour ptincip.il classes of Drunktrds. First, the Drunkards of prolonged atid monotonous Toil: second, the Drunkards of habit and example: third, the Drunkards of de. spair and disappointment; and fourth, the Drunk. ards of smothered exaltation and enthusiasm.

There are some other and produce Drunkenness, but wc will not enumerate them as separate Classes. In our next article, we will point out briefly the conditions which must be fulfilled to do away with Intemperance.
