Chicago vs.. st. Lou is.

These two cities are at this time having
quite struggle in centralizing the trade Of
this as well as other counties along the Hi
nois River, For years previous. to the con-
struction of railroads to Chicago, and subse.
quent to the completion Of Improvements on
the Upper Illinois. Fulton County depended
almost entirely upon st. Louis as a market for
her produce. and consequently, dry goods
as well as a grocery market, for her imports,
for domestic consumption. Last fall, the Chi
cago merchants commenced their operations
in Fulton county. by purchasing grains and
pork at higher figures than has ever hereto
fore been realized by our farmers, and this
spring nearly all our grain finds market in
the north.
We learn from respectable and intelligent
merchant Of this county that he has been in
duced to try Chicago as goods market. and
he finds that he can purchase goods at rates
that will enable him to sell three per cent.
cheaper, than had his goods been purchased in
St. Louis. The same gentleman has contracted
for the Shipping Of all his produce to Chicago.
finding he can realize higher figures that at st.
Louis.
The trade Of this country, must not depend
upon St. Louis as q market; in fact. it is un-
just tina. hundreds of thousands Of dollars
should be expended yearly in st. Louis. when
she is always 10th to contribute to improve
ments that seek TO draw out her capital into
Illinois. particularly along this river. A
charter for railroad along the Illinois river
has been obtained, but st. Louis ID perfectly
mum on the subject; she has not dime to
spare. and if she had. she fears the road wsuld
benefit Chicago. Now mark the differences
BY Chicago energy sixty miles of railroad baa
been completed down the river. and the work
will undoubtedly progress. and in return for
these facilities, we think the Chicago market
has claims of consideration, especially whom
there are are greater inducements extendsd.-
