DTThe Era Of Monday gives an &C
count of locofoco meeting held in ST.
Louis last Saturday evening, at which it
says "there was a general unbosoming of
all the tricks and decisions and rascality Of
Locoioco politicians in this Statc--such. as
it seems to us, ought to sicken and disgust
every man having any love of country left
to him and yet counting himself as belong
ing to that party. The meeting was called
to consider measures to be adopted for Sc.
curing representation in the Loco Foco
National Convention" Soon after the
meeting was organized, set of resolutions
were introduced providing for the selection
of Delegates by District Conventions
Judge Bowlin opposed the resolutions, and
denounced those democrats who advocate
the selection Of Delegates by District Con-
ventions as disorganizers. Several gentle
men spoke in favor of the resolutions, one
Of which was Mr.. Hudson, who gave a
description of the Jefferson City Legisla-
tive Caucus. The opponents of the reso-
lutions were in favor of County Mass
Meetings" at which delegates were to be
chosen to State Convention. Mr.. Hud-
son gave history of one of these "mass
meetings." held in Saline county, of which
our readers have probably heard something.
1t was a tremendous affar--on paper
Mr.. Hudson had conversation with Maj.
Harvey, the gentleman who acted as chair
man, relative to the probable number of
persons present, which is reported as fol.
lows; Were there tueaty7 asked Mr. Hud,

FRANKLIN AND GREEN.-While the
American army, in IT'S, was besieging
Boston, Congress sent TO the camp spe-
cial committee, at the head of which was
DR.. Franklin. Gen. Green, in a letter
dated prospect Hill, Oct. l6, l775," and
addressed to Gov. Ward, thus describes the
impression which that great philosopher
made upon him: "The committee from Con-
gress arrived last evening, and l had the
honor to be introduced to that very great
man, DR.. Franklin, whom viewed with 81
lent admiration during the whole evening.
Attention matched has lips and conviction
closed his periods" Beautiful tribute Of
one great man TO an other, both of whom
were among the foremost in liberty's great
struggle, and both fragrant with revolution
airy renown.

LYNCH LAVA negro in Columbia,
Pa, for attempting an outrage upon the
person Of young woman on the LIST inst,
was taken from the room in which he was
placed after trial before justice, by
large number of citizens, who carried him
to the river bank, stripped him of his
clothing, and gave him thirty-nine severe
lashes. They then tarred and feathered
the wretch, gave him thirty-nine lashes
more, supplied the place of the feathers
which were cut off by the last beating, by
fresh quantity, then pinioned his arms,
took him to the door of leading aboli-
ZIONIST of Columbia and left hing, in that
condition, tied to the handle of the door.

son. An evasive answer was returned
Were there ten, then! questioned Mr.. IL.
The Major didn't know-''more or less" he
said Now am able to prove, said Mr..
Hudson, that there were actually three per-
sons who voted on the resolutions. and af
forwards fourth individual came in and
was allowed TO vote for them So that ii
was in truth "mass meeting of four per-
sons" 1t was furthermore stated, that
when few other citizens came into the
room, and desired to vote upon the resolu-
tons, a question of order rosc--and Mr..
Speaker HARvIE, whose Parliamentary lore
is very profound, gravely decided, that this
could not be done, unless some one of the
four should move a reconsideration. But
as not one would consent to place himself
in this peculiar position; all the glory OF
having endorsed the proceedings of the
Legislative Cacus, was thus preserved to
the immortal four aforesaid.

NEW ORLEANS MARKET-Aug. 9Th.


Dizziness has characterized our market for the
week So many Of our business men have left for the
country, that our mars wear almost the appearance
Of Sunday. The river is falling rapidly, and the
weather, though apparently fine and pleasant is
supposed to be such not to ensure the health Of
unacclimated persons We hope for the best,
however, on the score of the health of the city,
but no revival of business can be looked for, for
months TO come.
ToBACco--Owing to the limited stock Of tobacco
on sale, as noticed in review of Saturday last,
the transactions since then have been on a small
scale, the sales for the past week not having ex-
ceeded 80 hhds In prices here is no change TO
notice, and we quote inferior lots 2, and &c. for
y, seconds and firsts; common lots q, 81 and &c;
fair lots 81, 81 aud Ate; fine lots %, 80 Acc;
selections . 20, 81 80 and AZ 4sc per 10.
FLouR-Ihere has been something more doing
in flour during the past week than for some time
previous. Sales of Ohio brands at 81 $44, and
Missouri $4a. Sour -four goes off freely at $3s
per bill.
BAGGING AND BALE RoPE-The market is very
well supplied with these articles, and our former
quotations are we'll sustained, viz: l24 lbs for
baggng cash. rope, A 81; time sales, l4l
l54 for the former, 81 a63 for the latter.
PoRK-We have no new features to notice in our
market for pork. The demand is very limited,
and that chiefly for the low quotations, which are
becoming very scarce. There is still fair sup
ply OF Mess at inspections, much Of which is under
limits, above our quotations, which are for Clear
$l2, Mess $ll III, Prime $40 $l04, NJ. o.
$lO4, lower qualities in proportion.
BAcoN-This article is still in very limited re-.
quest and holders are very anxious to realize We
quote hams for uncanvasseG; Gas for can
vassed; sides % 4 J, shoulders 2a24.

WONDERFUL CHnp.-Tbe Baltimore Re-
publican says that there is child living in
the southwestern section Of that city, two
years old, who smokes segars, chews to-
bacco, marches up and down the pavement
beating a drum with all imaginable con-
sequence, and besides is but sucking
baby. He is the wonder of all passers by,
and the admiration and boast of the neigh
borhood. If the little fellow exhibits now
so much of the man, what may not be ex-
pected of him when he shall have grown
to maturity! Great country this-great
country--for children, precocity and to-
bacco.

Major Moan, in the last number of the
messenger" gives an account of an inter-
view which he had with Mr.. Richie of the
Richmond Enquirer, whom he visited at
the instance of Mr.. Tyler, to ascertain from
an authentic source what were the Presi-
dents prospects in Virginia, and whether
Mr. Richie would consent to come to the
aid of Mr.. Tyler, and sustain him as a can
didate for an election. The exposition is
made to defend the Richmond Enquirer
from the Madisonian's charge of deter
mined hostility to Mr. Tyer-such at least
i the tenor of the introduction to his mar
tatlve. The narrator says:
Mr.. Richie. with his accustomed frank
ness. expressed the most favorable and
friendly sentiments toward the President,
as well as entire confidence in his integrity
and observed, that he had done much tn
merit the confidence of the Democratic
party; but, said he, the ground is already
occupied, and there appears to be a deter
mlnatlnn IN that party 10 do Justice to those
who were unfortunate in the conflict OF
| 1910, and To reinState them in power in
proof of unwaverng con fidence in their
principles That If President Tyler could
fairly obtain nomination in the Conven-
lion, it would be his duty and pleasure to
support him as the democratic candidate;
but at present there was no prospect Of his
success. As TO the patronage Of the Gov
eminent, said he, when ii is used dlscreetly
as an auxiliary to sustain party in power
It's Influence cannot be untcil but that pat
ronage alone can never build up party fol
any man. Mr. Richie, ! am certain, haC
no idea that | had distinct object in as
pertaining his views on this point, anc
therefore spoke entirely without reserve"
When the results Of Major Noah's mis-
sion were communicated to Mr.. Tyler
that gentleman is represented as saying tina
he had not any hopes of an election him
self, although soms OF his friends were san
guine If he hcd said that some of hi
friends pretenSed to be sanguine he woulC
have spoken more correctly, we presume
Mr. Ritchie's last words to the Major, "Mr
Tyler owes you much, and hope he viii
not forget you" were not communicated by
the faithful ambassador on his return, Blu
his gossiping humor now seems to have
got the better of his modesty. Perhaps h,
desires TO remind Mr.. Tyler of his ingrati
tude. The concluding portion Of the arti
Gle in the Messenger is not without some
singing observation-disclosures American.
"The Madisonian will thus perceive tina
he done injustice TO Mr.. Richie in his re
marks. OF myself have no complaints tc
make. ] do not belong TO that class o
corrupt political proAgates who make /;
business of cheating and deluding the
President; consequently | look for no favor
at court. Were | to denounce the Presi
dent as a traitor to his party, false TO hi

principles and treachcrous to all his friends,
as Spencer has in his Syracuse address
to the Wings, might possibly have Jared
as well as he has done. The Madisonian
or the person who wrote the article in the
Madisonian, asks who paid me the thirty
pieces of silver to furnish the article re-
commencing the President to withdraw as
a candidate. The malice of the insinua.
ton compels me to say that, which under
other circumstances would decline saying
| know Of no individual in this country,
who would throw away "thirty pieces Of
silver" to decide the question whether John
TYLER intended to withdraw from the field
or to continue as a candidate. If the
thirty pieces of silver were the tempta-
ton, it would rather think apply to the
Madisonian than to me-" He leads his
friend the President, with his eyes ban
daged, into the arena, to be baited and bro
ken down by the assaults of all parties,
merely to insist, while he is a candidate,
upon every man in Office taking the Madi-
sonian. |, more tender of his honor, COM
fort and success, receive nothing but Ill
will in all probability in return, recommend
him to withdraw and serve out his term
with the appreciation and applause of the
whole country, and retire with its full con.
fbence and regard. How many of the
Cabinet differ with mel"

DTThe official proceedings Of the NEE
ting held in the Court House on the It'll,
for the purpose of inviting Col. Benton to
visit this place, appear in the Pilot of
Thursday. We find the following among
the resolutions, brought forward by DR..

show the manner in which the Clique
tack about" when they find their trickery
leaking out A short time since, at NEE
ting in an adjoining county, gotten up by
the Clique, the name Of DR.. Linn was ex-
plunged from the resolutions prepared, and
now the head Of the corrupt faction in this
place, comes forward and introduces a com
plimentary resolution himself! DIR. Linn

being compImcntcd in connnexion with
two such nincompoops as Edwards and
Miller.

FOREIGN MARKETs.-The New York
Express says: money in England is i1clpos-
sibIe, more abundant than ever, but%here
is no disposition manifested as yet to inv ast
in American securities. The British press
complains loudly of the effect our tariff is
having upon their manufactures and upon
the iron trade, and statement shows the
great falling off there has been in British
manufactured goods. In the present state
of our wheat market, it is of high import
ance to ascertain the prospects for crop
in Europe. The accounts are contradictory
and unsatisfactory"
