A large manufacturing and commercial city will
grow up here, for such has always been the re-
suit, under similar circumstances. We will
only notice one prospect, plain to every person
The packing and siaughterins of nearly al
Northern Missouri will be done here. Their
are not likely to be any considerable packing
points on the Missouri river. A gentleman hal
recently come to this city from Weston, wher
he had been engaged in the business of packinI
and slaugh,ering for five yeur'. Ho intends I
continue the same business here, and loft tina
city on account of.le poor facilities for shippin
on the Missouri river. We have already thre
packing establishments that vii! rank anon

ON tie county vote, we have made the most un.
favorable calculations the subjec, would bear,
in order TO show tia! the county could in no
even, be loser, but must be a great gamer by
the subscription. We understand that the
feeling in favor Of the Railroad, never greater
il this city, is growing in tho country, also,
and that many more in town and country, who
have we'll considered tho subject, have recently
declared themselves determined to take stock to
q considerable extent on their own account, be.
lieving, with reason, that it will yield a good
interest Immediately on the completion of the
road, and that dividends will very rapidly in
crease to large amount. All circumstances
arc favorable to this opinion.

NOW, since " mas become the fashion Of In

It's his: General Scott will be the nominee oil
the Wing National Convention, in 1852, and
withou, endorsing tho Compromise Measures Of
the last Congress, every Wing paper in the
State will be enthusiastic in his support. Mark
it.-.ackson Democrat.
The Locofoco papers are great on predic-
tions. Now we "plsce prediction on record,'
that the democrat" man will ftd that he
don't know what he is talking about. We
know that the action CT the Pennsylvania
and Ohio Wing state Conventions has been
deeply injurious to Gen. Scott, and i, is GER
tain that while he i, leaving himself liable 10 the
suspicion of d,'Jing with Northern enc.
mics Of Tho Compromise, the ground is slipping
drawing to himself daily, in stronger degree
the affections, the tut and the hopes Of the con
servative portion OF the National Wing party
Still there IL reason for the belief that Gen Scott
"afriend ofthe Compromise Measures. II not,
the Wings Of Missouri will not support him
Under the most favorable aspects, Gen. Scott is
not, as matters no stand the first or even second
choice Of a majority of the Wings of this State.
