The St. Louis Republican ofthe Goth, says:
Yesterday was emphatically the great day
in the commerce of St Louis, 50 far as it
exhibits itself on the levee. From one cn:.
of the waIf to the other, in the evening as
well as the morning, nothing could be seen
but one vast pile Of produce and mcrchan-
die, and multitudes of men receiving, and
hundreds of drays loading and unloading.
Some forty boats were in l'oit, either ~receiv-
ing or discharging cargo, and although the
capacious steamers in the New Orleans
trade, in the course Of the bay, slowed away
an immense quantity, yet at five O'Clock the
piles on the warf had not diminished very
Sensibly. Hundreds of bales of hemp; thou
sands O fsacks of wheat; an endless quantity
of other grain; hundreds of barrels of flour;
any number Of casks of other descriptions
of produce, and thousands of hides--to say
nothing Of boxes and packages of every cen
ceivable sort of acknowledgements
some portion of the IN of st. Louis,
as it exhibited itself on the wharf yesterday.
Frequently the hundreds Of drays got into
into a complete snarL, and then came the
puzzle, the uproar ana confusion in getting
them under way again! We never saw
such a sight, nor so much hustle!

Ypsilanti sentinel. [volume] (Ypsilanti, Washtenaw Co., Mich.) 1843-1900, 1847-06-09

THE WHEAT CRoP.-We have been some
what disposed to regard the many complaints
We have heard of the poor appearance of the
wheat crop, as groundless, or at most produced
by undue anxiety. We are, however, fully con-
WINGED that this is not the case by casual look
at some of the fields in this vicinity, on land
which has heretofore been remarkable for its
productiveness.
The appearance of the crop is unpromising in
the extreme. We should think our calculation
was ucry liberal if reckoned on three-fourth
of an average yield. Certainly with the winter
and the insect, which has made its appearance,
more than one-fourth of the plant is destroyed,
and the remainder, backward as It is, is pecu-
liarly liable to damage from rust, sc.
1t is some mitigation of this discouraging
state of the wheat crop, that every thing else
looks quite promising.
Ypsilanti sentinel. [volume] (Ypsilanti, Washtenaw Co., Mich.) 1843-1900, 1847-06-09

With regard to the capabilities for defence
presented upon this portion of the road, it would
be imprudent for any one-and especially for
one not skilled in military matters-to offer
opinions, and to attempt to arrive at conclu-
sions, which may be utterly dissipated by the
next news from Mexico. 1t would seem that
a small number of active men, we'll acquainted
with the localities, might annoy large inva-
ding army on its way through this pass in the
Sierra Madre, encountered with heavy artillery
N baggage;and that strong force, posted at
Lo Hoya, for instance, which can scarcely be
turned, might arrest the advance Of such an ar
my. These things have been done in Switzer-
land, in Tyrol, and even in Mexico, during the
revolution. But the Mexicans of our day, tho
evidently brave, have, for some reason or other
shown themselves entirely unequal to such
tasks: and we are authorized to expect that if
Gen. Scott, should reach Jalapa, no serious i'm
pediment will be offered to his advance, at least
as far as Perote, if not to Pueo!a.
In conclusion for the present. The sound o!
,Jo!apa is very nearly rendered Hah-iah pa.
and that of frJoles by .free-ho less. r. G.
