The Wings Moving.

The Wings of the State are in notion
From every section the most gratifying ac-
counts are received, and the best feeling
seems to prevail. A majority of the coun-
ties have held meetings and appointed dele
gates to the proposed State Convention,
which is to select candidates to be support
ed at the ensuing August election, appoint
delegates to the Wing National Conven-
ton, SC.
In all these county meetings, the present
administration receives just and unqualified
approbatlon-the Compromise measures arc
unanimously spoken Of as inality on the
question, and all further agitation denounced
as factious and dangerous, and not to be
countcnanced. The distinguished and pa
triotic head of the administration--the ap-
proven of the compromises, without, we
believe, single exception, declared TO be
the choice of the wings for the next Presi-
dency. The names of two of Missouri's
distinguished sons, Messrs. Geyer and Doni-
phan, have been favorably spoken of in
connection with the Vice Prcsidency-but
the name of that gallant and patriotic Ken
tuckian, whose name stands at the head OF
our columns, in connection with that office,
has been more frequently associated with
that of President Fillmore, for the second
office in the gift of the people.
This enthusiasm and harmony-this uni
versal resolving to make another united and
rigorous effort to route the Locofocos from
the Capitol of Missouri, made, as it has
been, SO early in the season, should inspire
every wing who is yet luke-warm, to action.
No one should set himself down, thinking
that when the election comes he will vote,
and thus have discharged his duty. Work
has to be done, and every Wing should
recollect that it is his duty to do a portion of
it. Let them strive to see who can do the
most, rather than remain idle, and shrink
from the active duties Of the canvass, and
depend upon it, success will crown the effort,
and Missouri be redeemed from Locoloco
thraldom,

FOUNDER gun, and good supply of ammu-
milton. The Mexican forces charged Cara
vajal with uncommon impetuosiiy with two
two hundred and fifty cavalry. On receiv-
ing the first charge large body of Carava-
jal's troops broke and fled in great disorder.
The men who first commenced the stampede
are said to have composed the command Of
Capt. Meustz, and were mostly Mexicans;
but in their progress they took with them
many Americans. These fled the field and
never returned. These few, not over eighty
who stood the onset, repulsed the charging
party by discharging their guns double
loaded with canister, making great slaugh-
ter in their ranks. The charge was repeated
three different times with like results
After this the Mexican forces retired and
crossed the San Juan river About this
time the + remaining forces of Carvajal left
in small parties, it being between l and IL
o'clock at night and quite dark. In few
hours from that time, the battle field was de-
serted by both contending parties. When it
became known to the Mexicans that Cara
vajal had left, they returned and took pos
session of the ground.

the present, at least.
w. S. Starke, of Star county, was with
Caravajal, but has not been seen since the
battle. There is report, which is thought
to be true, that he was taken and hung

We learn from private letter, that party
of United States dragons, commanded by

az An invasion of England still causes
apprehension. On the 10Th ult., Lord John
Russell proposed to add to the regular ar
my of Great Britain troops of the line, and
1000 artillery men, and as regards the mi
litia, to enrol by ballot one-ffth (about 3d.
000) of all the men in Great Britain be-
tween the ages of twenty and twenty-three,
in the first year of the system, and of those
between the ages of twenty and twenty-one,
in all succeeding years. They are to be
liable to serve only fourteen or twenty
eight days the first year, and for fourteen
days in each of the three succeeding years.
Except in cases of invasion, or of imminent
danger of invasion, they cannot be called
upon to serve beyond the limits of their re-
spective counties. The proposed measure
is not to be applied to Ireland. Lord Pal
merston supported the measure, while Mr..
Hume opposed, and Mr.. Golden ridiculed

Tobacco.

The Tobacco crop Of last years growth
i'll this market, has been bought, thus far,
upon the supposed intrinsic value of each
crop. Buyers were backward in entering
the market, and it was not until the quality
was ascertained that they would purchase
The result has been very wide range in
figures, which many do not understand
The prices, for instance now, range from
$3.50 to 81, per hundred pounds--and we
think fraction over "a has been given for
fine article of manufacturing.
The caution of purchasers will ultimately
resultfavorable TO growers. 1t has boon
clearly demonstrated, that the grower, who
manages his crop carefully, in every partic-
ular, and brings il into market in good order,
and well handled, will get the highest figures;
and they always afforded fair remuneration
for labor. No one doubts but that "A is
good price for Tobacco-$3 we believe is
considered a fair living busincss-yet not
hnlfthe growers have received these prices.
The present rates show the reason, and the
sooner growers devote more attention to
the plant, from the time it is set out until
sold, the better prices they will receive
We predict ths same state of affairs next
year, and those who design planting Tobac-
co. sbollld resolve, at once, to produce first
rate article. and then they are sure Of hay
ipg their labor rewarded.

IL We find the following in the Wash

The MoRMoNs--A CARD.-In the WASH
ington and New York papers there is news
by telegraph that the Mormons at Great
Salt lake had published declaration of in
dependence, in which they assert their de-
termination to set up republic for them
selves, and that the United States authori-
ties are put at defiance, all the United States
officers had left, and that the people were
preparing to resist all authority by fortify-
ing their settlements; all of which have no
hesitation in pronouncing mistake. From
nv last advices from the authorities IN Utah
| am certain that no such state of things
was ever thought of or contemplated as that
described in the paragraphs of the newspa-
pers alluded to. 1t is either sheer fabri-
cation, or a misunderstanding growing out
of the United States officers leaving the
Territory last autumn.

to term our timidity, as will be seen by the
following extract from his Louisville speech:

Mr.. DouoLAs.--A Washington letter
says it is stated on good authority, that
Senator Douglas has consented to throw
his strength into the Buchanan interest,";
the morsls of the move being, that if Gen.
Cass were to get the nomination, it woald,
in any event, prevent the northwest from
receiving it in 1856, whereas, by going for
Mr.. Buchanan, Mr.. Douglass stands well
for the next election. At all events you
may rely that the move has been agreed
upon.

Tobacco.

The Glasgow Times has Tobacco quoted
from 81 so to 50. The Maconites can do
better at home than take that. 1t is worth
here from 3 to SO so.
There is no doubt in our mind, but that
publishing in TIE Gazette, that James Flore
and G. NJ. Taylor were engaging in the
Tobacco business in this county, walked up
the Riverites. They knew well, that Florc
and Taylor were able to do things sup
brown" Something has caused this sud-
den rise. From the great number of buyers
from distance one is led to believe that
Macon Tobacco is in demand And so it
is. We hope the citizens will all give our
countrymen a bid at their Tobacco. This
is the way to build up the county, and keep
the Tobacco and money" floating within its
limits. BY encouraging our county buyers,
we will soon have a home Market as good
if not better than the river market. In less
than year, buyers will become numerous,
and of course, competition will get. up
among them-as with merchants Bloom.
Gazette.
We regret that the ''riverites" were SO
eficctually "wallcd up as to cause the
Gazette to beg in behalf Of its "home
market'-but the fact is, produce will go
where the most money is. The Maconites
can well be proud of their Tobacco crop,
because the eagerness of buyers shows it
to be fine article.
