WESTERN TcBAcco.-The Louisyille con,;.,
of the 9th ult., says:
Notwithstanding all we have written unon tbe
sunectof the superior advantages of our Tobacco
Market over that OF New Orleans nothing ran
more iorclby illustrate the truth of our position
than the following extract from letter of n New
:, merchant to commercial house ia
NASHVILLE. Tennessee, published in the Nashville
wing Iobncco, it will be seen from our dailv
,oPorts Oh the market, has an upward tendency
here-prlces since November last have advanced
fully one cent-which is owing mainly to the mn
merous and multiplying outlets which are offered
for shipment to the Eastern seaboard bv the nm
river avenues. New Orleans has too much Cot
ton' sugar. Molasses, and other Southern pro-
ducts 10 longer accommodate the great and in.
creasing avalanche of Western prodpcts hence
new nome markets are sprirging up md multi.
Plying and new routes are opening to convey
thsm OH TO the seaboard, and to immediate con-
snmers. The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad

freight to the extent of 125 tons per day. which
VIII soon be connected with daily line of the
finest steamers on the Western waters. from
Louisville to Wheeling, thus connecting this
great railroad route from the East with Louise
vllle affords greater facilities than ever before
offered, and Is we'll calculated tn increase our
market for Tobacco, as shipments can be ,rade
IRON lHlS point at rates that will induce general
and increasing demand. But to the extract.
which issaid to be from a most reliable and ex-
tensive House in New Orleans.
'There have been further sales of tobacco to
the extent probably of 1000 hhds. since we last
wrote you. Particulars have in most instances
been suppressed but it is prettylgeneralIy under
stood that prices are aa4 lower than in the early
part OF November, when the last considerable
transactions were reported-and even at this
reduction there appear to be but few buyers in
clined to operate The advices from abroad are
OF favourable tenor, but the continued high
rates offreight are serious obstacle ia the wav
OF shipments. The quantity of cotton and other
produce to be shipped from here is immense, and
the demand for vessels at other ports being un-
usually great. it is not probable that freights will
be materially lower for some weeks; meanwhileI
the stock of tobacco will continue to accumulate,
and before shipments be made at rates that
will induce general demand, we may have an
unwieldyt amount in port We are inclined to
the opinion that prices of the weed will be lower
four or six weeks hence than they are now andI
unless the crop is very considerably short of last
years, we think you would do well to buy spa
rngy, unless prices with you should decline la

Wing PRoGREss AND DEMOCRATIC. PROGRESS
Under this head the Louisville Journal portrays
the striking contrast between the Democratic|
and Wing policy of the country. The Journal
very truly remarks:
1t is very common for Locofocos to charged
the Wings with opposing all movements de- i
signed to bless, enlighten and elevate the peg.
pie. The Wings, it is true, are the conser1
vative party in the United States. They are forI
preserving our political institutions unchanged
believing that they were founded in WISDOM
and are the best the world has yet seen. They
opposed Gen. Jackson's efforts to aggrandise the
power of the Executive, because they knew that
those efforts were contrary to the Constitution
and con1cted with the true ends of wise con-
sttutional government They have arrayed
themselves against the whole school of Locofocd
manifest destiny philosophers of the day, oppo-
sing their wild doctrines and schemes. They
are satisfied with the government as it was in the
early days of the republic, and are far from be-
iieving that the usurpations of power and viola
tions of the Constitution committed by Locofoc
Presidents have been improvements on the Gov
eminent as 1t was administered under the six frs
and best of our Presidents while the Locofoco
have been denonncing the prudence which wa
unwilling to forsake well-known aud well
proved path for what was new, untred, and per
ilous, the Wings have heen cherishing it as wis
and necessary to the maintenance of becomin
reverence for the Constitution. While the Lo-
cotocos have been for pushing out to sea withou
Chart or compass in search of doubtful good, tn
Wings have constantly insisted on observing th'
old land marks and keeping the Government
within the limits prescribed by the Constitu
ton."

THEY SAY THAT THOU ART POOH.
They say that thou art poor Louise
And SO know thou art;
But what is wealth to noble minds
Or riches to the heart?
With all the wealth Of India's mines
Can one great deed be bought
Or can n kingdoms ransom bring
One pure and holy thought:
No; vain your boosted treasure
Tho earth to gold is given.
Gold cannot stretch to measure
The love bestowed by heaven
They say that thou art poor Louise
And so know thou art;
But why should lack of sordid pelf
Thrust thee and me apart?
The pearls that sparkle on the lawn
Our jewels bright shall be;
The gold that frets the early dawn
Shall fiji our treasury
Ask yethe proudest mnion
Whom gold gives rule o er earth
Doth not our broad dominion
Out-beggar all he's worth?
Well rove beside the brook Mt eva
When birds their vesper song
or gentle truth and guileless love
To woods and winds proloug!
And from the morning eweled Gun
Such healthtul draught we'll have,
AS never met the fevered lips
or fortunes gilded slave.
Could Lydian Croesus, dearest
As wide XIX gdom see
AS the fair real thou nearest
Belongs to thee and me
know that thou artpoor Louise.
And so indeed an, I;
But not the boards of oceans oayes
Our poverty could buy
For wealth beyond the miscrs tIouobt ~
We both alike control
The treasure Of priceless love-
The riches of the soul
Then at this hour divine love
Toholyechoe given,
Let thy true vows and mine love
Be registered in heaven!

LOCAL MATTERS.

SrATE AGRicuITuRAL FAfR.--We are
really glad to the deep interest which our city is
taking in this great State enterprise, and feel au
thorised cay persons at distance that our CITY
fathers" are determined TO leave nothing undoue
that can by possibility tend to the advancement of
the grand movement now being made to foster the
agricultural interests of the State Az the best indi-
cation of this intention, in addition to what Rich
mond has already done, at called meeting of the
City Council, held at the Chamberain's Office on
Thursday afternoon last to receive and consider the
report of the Committee on Public Grounds the
Council with great unanimity, appropriated the sum
OF 800 for further improvements to the Western
square upon which the Fair lie to be held and dirsc.
ted that suitable walkways should be prepared to
the square from the heart of the city.
The report, to which we have alluded. asks for an
appropriation of 1925 to be expended in the erection
Z tents on the Western Square, to be used by
the AgIicuiura Society, during the Fair, and S275,
with which to erect suitable gateway at the main
entrance OF the Square. The Committee further re-
commend the improvement of Main and Franklin
streets, and the construction of sidewalk on the
south side OF Main street to the principal entrance of
the Western Square.
:, After the reading of the above report which was
discussed by several embers all favoring the i'm
prove1nents asked for, the Council as we have stated
appropriated 300 to carry out the design of the
Committee on the Public Grounds, and Instructed
the commissioners OF streets TO have Main and Frank
n streets put in such order would facilitate travel
TO and from the Fair.
