THOSE AFFIDAvlTs.-The affidavits which
Mr.. Chandler promised should be forthcoming,
about locOfoco corruption in high places"
have not arrived, nor will they. Mr. c. has in
jured himself by making wholesale charges
against upright and honest men, and he will not
gain political strength by it. The Detroit Free
Press of the 9th inst says:
"There is probably not more reckless ca
lumniator within the borders of MICHIGAN than
the wing nominee for Governor, Il. Chandler
In every speech he has made, he has been gull
ty of uttering baser falsehoods than we suppos-
ed even he could do.
At Constantine, Mr.. Chandler said, 1.-THE
Board Of State Auditors, at Lansing, in let
ting the contract for furnishing stationery forthe
departments corruptly refused to give the con-
tract to the lowest bidder as by law they were
bound to do, but in violation of law, gave it toa
political favorlte at higher rate than others
had bid for it. But it so happened, unknown
to them, that the lowest bidder was also To-
cofoco-and when he threatened TO make an
exposure, the State Treasurer corruptly and IL
legally gave him temporary contract at ex-
horbitant rates. and paid him, unlawfully, from
the Treasury, large sums to secure his ST.
lence."
The above is a verbatim report of Mr.. Chan
der's speech at Constantine, and we know there
is not one word of truth in the whole-no, no:
one word. The bidders for the stationery were
Joseph B. Clarke, wing, A. s. Bagg, a Demo-
crat and Markham g. Elwood, the former
wing ard the latter democrat. The Board of
State Auditors gave the contract to Joseph B.
Clarke, an active and bitter parizan whig, be-
cause they deemed him the lowest bidder The
assertion that the State Treasury gave a tenn
porary contract to one of the other bidders to
secure his silence, is wilful falsehood. Mr..
Clake had furnished nearly all of the stationery
for three months previous to the letting of the
contract and we defy any man TO show that a
temporary or any other contract was made with
either of the other bidders. We repeat, Mr.
Clarke, is wing, and he will sustain every word
we have written. The correctness of the re-
port of Mr.. Chambers speech will be proven
if necessary, by those whose character for truth
and veracity is beyond the reach Of Mr.. Chan
der.

CRoPs IN EURoPE.-The London Economist
said to be reliable organ, says there was prob
ably never season when the accounts of the
crops were more conflicting, but with damage
by blight in some places, by rain and sprouting
in others, and the scarcity of labor everywhere
for reaping, there is no doubt that the crop in
quality is far below an average. In the North
of England, in Scotland, and Ireland, less inju-
~ has been done, and the grain crop up to the
present time promises to be good.
A similar difference prevails in the contipen-
tai accounts, which have, however, been more
uniformly good during the last week. There,
is less complaint of blight, but more of the in
fuence of rain in some places. The favorable
change, however, in the weather is producing
more satisfactory results than were of late an
ticipated-and so far as grain is concerned,
there is no ground for apprehension that any
deficiency in this country will not be readily
made good from abroad, without any very ma
terial rise of price.
But by far the worst feature in our home
supply of human food, is the destruction of the
potato crop. In many, and very important dis
tricts the loss is more complete than in any for
mer year whatever-and these remarks extend
more or less throughout the whole length of
England from Cornwall to Northumberland. So
far as the continent is concerned, there is less
said about the potato disease than last year, es-
pecially in Germany. Monroe Commercial.

California dates to the Goth September, say
that the steamer Pioneer, of Vanderbilts' line,
bound from San Juan dePrua to San Francisco,
was lost at Timmon's Bay, on the 18th August.
The passengers were all saved, and taken to
their destination. The shipment of gold from
San Francisco to Panama, amounted to $2,l52,-
900. A few cases Of cholera had occurred at
San Francisco. The mining news from Cali
fornia is very encouraging. In the neighbor-
hood of Sonora the yield is ranging from one
to five ounces of gold per man per day. A
lump of nearly pure gold had been taken out
near Sacramento, which weighed twenty-five
pounds, and was valued at $4,000. Much en-
curry was making for farming land in Califor-
mia, and it was thought large portion of the
emigrants would turn their attention to agrcul.
tural pursuits. The steamer Boston was burn
ed at San Antonio OH the night of the Goth .Au-
gust. On the last arrival of the Winfld Scott
at San Francisco, she was seized by the author
tiles for carrying an excess of passengers. She
was released on giving 100000 bonds as secu-
rity. Advces from Oregon to the 2lst August,
but the news is unimportant. Numerous emf

UNANswERABLE ARGUMEYTs.-The follow
ing are the main reasons urged by the whig
presses against the election of Franklin Pierce:
LIST. Because he is Jeffersonian Democrat Of
the old school, and opposed to U. S. Bank, an
unjust tariff, the alien and sedtion laws, and
other unconstitutional measures Of the federal
party.
Cd. Because he used his best endeavors to
have the religious test expunged from the New
Hampshire State constitutions
Sd. Because the democratic convention had
the presumption to select him from among the
many qualified citizens not holding rich Office
under the government.
4th. Because, upon a certain cold day, he
gently patted the head Of ragged juvenile
covered with mud" and generously handed
the poor little fellow shining copper, advising
him to hasten to the confectioner's and purchase
a stick of candy. History does not state
whether the boy obtained candy, lollipops, or
fsh-hooks.)
9th. Because, while in Mexico, a drunken
gentleman slapped one of his cheeks. This
story probably originated with the author OF
the nose-pulling incident, in which Mr.. Polk
figured. The effect Of the present story will
be the same as that Of the former.
