ALL EDhOfE FED ON CORN MEAL.
The following Is the estimate Of the Commission
er Of Patents OF the crop OF wheat and corn for
ls45. We are informed by letter from our consul
at Glasgow, lately read before the Farmers Club,
says the New York Evening Post, that the quaint
" OF corn meal which would be consumed in Great
Britain IN few years incalculable. IL Ia only
few months that corn meal has been admitted at
one shilling duty yet il has grown into favor with
all classes. There Is no article OF provision pro-
dueed III Europe that can come into composition with
II for cheApness abundance; nor Is there any arti-
Gle Of food that ever met with such welcome from
man its first introduction, this has received in
Great Britain.
Now what is the consequences Of these faetsl Our
farmers can compete with all the wsrld in the pro-
duce Of corn meal In a few years the millions of
poor people in Great Britain will look as entirely To
the supply Of corn meal from this country for n
chief article Of their food as the English msnufsc-
Iurers now do to the southern planters for cotton;
other countries Of Europe will import IT, and the
western farmer must supply il. IL will be but few
years before we shall thus have the South and West
striving hand-in-hand for free trade; and any west
ern man Who now opposes low duties may be
forced to his steps. The changes necessary
TO produce such result are not half so great or dif
hcult as what we have in relation TO the same
matter take place within the last twelve months.
The estimate Of the commissioner for the last
year was as follows:
The daily union. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1845-1857, 1846-07-17
From the ". Y. Evening Post
LET THE WEST LOOK OUT.

Now that the tariff bill is before the Senate and
only the last step remains be taken to secure It's
passage, every effort 10 defeat it may be anticipated
on the part ofthe manufacturers. The approval Of
the President is certain IT, therefore, the bill pass
the Senate, every hope Of theirs is crushed To the
ground Their princely gains are reduced to the
honest modest profits that attend unprlvileged com.
petition. The bill must and shall be defeated, say
they Every possible appeal Is made to the
hopes and the fears and the interests Of the people
IN order to sway their views, and none ia louder
than the cry Of ruin to the agrIcuturist and partc-
ulaTly Of the West, by the destruction OF the home
market Pictures most appalling are portrayed OF
the rotting graneres Of wheat and corn ard store
houses OF putrd beef and pork that will dehe the
fair fields of the western States, because nobody
will come and eat them, send and buy them.
Then follow in their representations visions Of low
prices and prices, attending which such distress
and embarrassment of business is to take place
was never before known.
Why are not similar represent atoms made 10 the
agriculturist Of the South Why is he not told
that by reducing the duties on cotton goods the
home demand for cotton will be destroyed Why
are not attempts made 10 prove to him, as to the
farmer Of the West and North, that with the fail
ure Of the home market his labor will be in vain
his crop will be almost worthless and himself
ruined The absurdity is too glaring to be listened
to Yet il is not considered too absurd to attempt
TO convince those who hold in their possession the
graperies of the world that by a loss Of the home
market afforded by our domestic manufacturers they
win be ruined
Let the West look out and take heed In time.
The day viii surely come whsn the prices Of thar
great staples like those Of the South, will be regu-
lated by the great markets of Europe. The price Of
cotton is now determined in Liverpool. The price
Of maize is already regulated by the market in Liv
erpool, notwithstanding the English duties on it
have been reduced within few months. What is
the result The price Of maize has advanced in
this market ten cents per busheI and is maintained
at that advance in consequence of the foreign mar
ket.
The crop of maize is estimated by the Commits
sioner Of Patents at one hundred and fifty million
bushels if VIC recolect Alright, and an advance Of
ten cents is fifteen million dollars, which is the
gain tie producers in consequence ofreducing the
English duties.
And where would at this moment, have been the
prices Of our wheat and -four and beef, had not our
markets, even with all the home demand, been
lieved by the large quantities sent TO Great BRITAIN
We casually put our hand on the following State
ment, which is one of many we have seen:
During only ''two three days" Immediately
preceding the sixth Of May, there were received at
the ports Of London and Liverpool alone from the
United States in fourteen different ships the follow
inr ap,aIi Hills of items.

FROM THE MOUNTAINS.

A company numbering some fifteen or sixteen
men, belonging to Chouteau's Fur Company, ar
rived yesterday on The steamer Balloon. lhey
started from Fort ST. Pierre about tile first Of last
month"; and came as far as Fort Leayenworth in two
Macknaw boats laken with robes. Getting tired
OF their boats at that place, they abandoned them
and shipped their contents on board the steamer
Balloon, in which they reached this city. The on
ly item of news they bring Is the arrival and en-
campment of large body of Mormons, three or -four
thousand in number and near one thousand wagons,
at BeIeview, a short distance below Council Bluffs.
They had been there, and on the road several
months, and were suffering, it is said, severely for
the want of provisions; many were reported IN an
actual state Of starvation. Provisions aud game are
very scarce in that portion of the country and to
supply their immediate necessities, they had bought
all the provisions stored in the bluffs for the use OF
the Fur Company. Three messengers were seen
by our informants on their way from Fort Leaven-
worth to them, but not, as has been supposed, for
the purpose OF enlstng men for the Santa Fe expe-
dition; of quite different was their GRAND,
but the exact purpon OF which was not known. Ii
is said that il il the intention of the cross
the Missouri and take up their winter quarters on
Platte river, above the Pawnee country, and next
spring to go on to Oregon.
The present rise in the Missouri is reported from
the mountains and is the annual June food But
ltte snow fell during the winter, and the weather
was unusually mild in the attitudes of the trading
post consequently the buffalo kept out upon the
plains nearly all winter, and the hunting was moi
so good as in previous years; notwithstanding, the
company trading from Fort Pierre, done very good
business, and succeeded in getting large number Of
robes The other posts, it is presumed, have done
as well, and some eight or ten Mscknaw boats arc
expected TO arrive from them soon.
The steamers Corinne and Amarapth, with Cap
tains Cook and Summers's companies Of Dragons or
board, were met by the last boat down from the
Missouri, near Camden, on the let. II 10 generally
understood that they will occupy Fort Leavenwortl
until their services shall be needed 10 New Mexico

lHE GREATEST IRON GUN EYER CAST YET.-Yeser.
day afternoon another stupendous piece of ordnance
vas cast at Ayers foundry, South Boston, which,
when finished, will exceed Captain Stocktons ceIe-
5rated 'peace-maker"by 5000 pounds in weight
The arrangements for the operation were COM
nenced ia the morning, by filling the furnaces with
metal, and firing up. The quantity of metal used
was ubout AZ, QUO pounds, and the amount of coal
consumed ~ reducing il to the requisite state of flu
sion, was eight chadrons, At six o'clock, p. m ,
repeated experiments having been made with it in
small quantities, the metal was pronounced to be in
fit condition for use, and the grand operation of
casting was commenced The two furnaces were
apped, and the boiling and blazing liquid gushed
forth, rushing and eaping through the iron canals,
which empted into the sides of the mould sank
twelve feet into the solid ground. The flaming
streams continued to run for fifteen minutes down
through the iron flask or shell Of the mould, the
metal In the meantime bubbling and revolving as il
rose in the inner shaft Of sand which in fact formed
the actual mould for the cannon. The metal having
reached the level of the mould, supplementary or
cap mould was put on, and filed with some tons of
metal poured into it from crane ladle.
The object of this addition is to give, by means of
dead weight above, steadiness to the process of
Capitalization in that portion of the mass out of
which the cannon is to be turned. Ten days will
elaPse before the metal have become sufficiently
cool to admit Of the removal of the flask by digging
away the compact ground in which stands embed
ded; and then, in the space of FIVE weeks the gun
can be finished and got ready for mounting on
Fort George, in our harbor for which il is designed
The casting was done under the personal super
vision Of Mr.. Alger and Col. Bomford, the inventor
Of this species Of ordnance to the first specimen of
which Thomas Jefferson, in 1909, gave the name of
the "Columbiad." sF..... =. ..
The weight Of the gun, when finished, will be
25,OOO, pounds. Length, ten feet; diameter at the
base ring SO inches; length Of chamber 10 inches;
diameter Of chamber, 9 inches; length of bore, 8
feet I inch of
of round shot which il will carry, 900 pounds
weight Of shell, 100 pounds. Range OF shot or
shell, 81 mies-being Of a mile greater than the
recorded performances Of the largest and latest in
vented mortar in England, and half mile beyond
the reach of any gun in the castle of San Juan de
Ulloa, at Vera Cruz. #.'
The cost Of this immense instrument for harbor
defence, will not exceed $500; or one-sixth The
cost Of the wrought iron gun procured in England

OUR TRADE WITH MEXICO.


Circular 10 collectors and other officers Of The customs
TREAsuRr DEPARTMENT, June 30, 1876.
The circular Of this department Of the I lth inst
contains the following paragraph:
"By the law of nations, as recognised by repeat
ed decisions Of our Judicial tribunals, the existence
ola state Of war inlefdets all trade OF commerce be-
tween the citizens Of the two nations engaged in the
war. II consequently follows that neither yesse s
nor merchandise Of any description can be allow
To proceed from ports places in the United States
to ports places IN ths territories Of Mexico, with
the exception of such ports places in the latter
country may be at the time in the actual posses
sion OF the Uniied States forces"
Matamoras is now in the actual possession of
the forces Of the United States, and perhaps other
ports and places on the same side Of the Rio
Grande
for the port Of Matamoras, you will issue them un.
der the following circumstances;
LIST. To American vessels only.
81. To such vessels carrying only articles OF the
growth, produce, manufacture Of the United
States, Of imports from foreign countries into our
own, upon which the duties have been fully paid !;
and upon all such goods, whether of our own or Of
foreign countries, duties will be ehsrgeable at the
port Of MalamOras so long as IL is in possession Of
the forces Of the United States.
In issuing this order il Is not intended 10 interfere
with the authorities Of General Taylor TO exclude
such articles, including spirltuous liquors OF con-
traband OF war, the introduction of which he may
consider injurious to our military operations in
Mexico.
Foreign imports which may be re-exported in
vessels to Matamoras, will not be entitled to any
drawback Of duty; for If this were permitted, they
would be carried from that port into the United
States, and thus evade the payment Of all dulies.
Whenever any other port or place upon the Mex
lean side of the Rio Grande shall have passed intu
the actual possession OF the forces Of the United
States, such pors and places will be subject to all
the above Instructions which are applicable to the
port Of MatamoIas.

10 hampers Of potatoes, and numerour other
articles not parcularized. This Goes not include
the British importation of that great staple of the
south--the cotton crop-the transportation Of which
employs so many ships and men, and at rates toe,
that have laid the foundation and reared the su er.
structure of the wealth of many towns scattered all
through the New England States.
We say again let the west look out and secure the
passage ofIhe present BILL and let the manufacturers
wisely acqnesce, or a worse bill for them will next
year surely be passed.
