lNr. j. ". 'BrieR-Dear SIR In reply to
your circular Of the 18th inst, in regard to crops
prices Of produce &C., will first say the old
Corn crop is exhausting at closing prices, ran
ging from 40 to 80 cents. Wheat crop good,
and selling slowly from so to 60 cts. Oats crop
almost a failure and no transactions in the arti-
Gle. Corn crop something near an average, and
think will be worth about 80 cents. Hogs
plenty and of usual good quality, and the sup
ply will be larger than last season, and think
will be worth from ID to 81 gross. Horses,
Mules, and Beef cattle, remarkably scarce and
high. Please send my paper to Russellville in
stead of Rocky Springs. Yours truly,
SAM'L Z. DoDsoY.

East Tennessee d, Kentucky Raitroad--The
correspondent of the Louisville Democrat. who
daily gives an interesting account of "Tdk on
'Change,' under date of 10th inst, says:
"The inquiry was started, what will be done in
the matter of the E. Tennessee railroad? Why,
the ordinance passed by the Council several
months ago has not been put before the people.
The road is one that will be of very great advan-
tage to Louisville. 1t makes no difference
where the Frankfort Company branch. If
Shelby county will not subscribe then branch
off this side and save twenty miles of road, or
perhaps more. The road can be started at any
point east of the depot, and still be branch of
the Frankfort road. What is the reason the
the Council can't shake a little Of tie old fagy
out Of their heads, stir up their blood little,
