The above aggregates show an increase in
number of pa, 1888. We have yet to hear from
twenty places ia Ohio, nineteen in Indiana
eight in Iowa, twenty-five in Illinois, three in
Wisconsin, and fear in Missouri; besides some
new places, the returns from which will, no
doubt, increase the excess, this season, four
hundred thousand. AT eighty mine of the pla-
ces reported the increase in the weight from
three to forty p cent, chiefly ranging from
nine to thirty p cent, and at seventeen places
there is an increase in weight reported, of two
to ten p cent.
At the other points our correspondents were
not able to give the comparative increase or
decrease; but, from the information we have il.
our possession we have no hesitancy in put
ting down the average increase in weight at
II per cent, believing that this is rather under
the actual increase in the yield of lard; and the
quality of both pork and lard is represented
very Superior.
An increase of IL p cent on the number
packed at the points reported would be equal
to 217 ,294 hogs, which added to the increase
in number would show the aggregate increase
to be equal to 434, 1852 hogs.
There is no doubt that there is an increase
in the number of hogs shipped East this sea-
son as compared with last, but what the ex-
cct amounts, we are not yet able to say.

Commencement of the 22d Volume.

The I'D velame or year of the Evansville
Weekly Journal will commence in two weeks.
We would suggest this as an appropriate time
for Commencing and renewing subscriptions to
the journal. We particularly desire subscri-
bers who are in arrears to settle up to the
opening of the new volume. They will thus
be reminded of the position of their accounts
without placing us at the trouble of notifying
them. The Weekly Journal contains large
quantity of reading matter, including full news
and markets by telegraph these dispatches
alone costing us several hundred dollars a year,
as they are sent exclusively to this paper
and to no other in this section of the State
But literally laden and overlooking with'read
ing matter as is the Weekly Journal, we are
anticipating speedy enlargement, such as tc
render it the largest paper in the State. We
therefore wish to commence 1.-THE '1ew'vefe+1le
with large addition Of Subscribers. and we
are certain we shall dc it IF our friends will
lend us a little aid.

6rThe New Albany Tribune and Evans
vile journal will probably be the only papers
of any influence in Indiana that will hoist the
Fillmore flag LGf jour.
And where does the shame Of that belong!
Four years ago there was scarcely an editor IN
the State now known as Republican editor,
who would not have been delighted to the bot
tom of his heart at the opportunity OF running
up the name of Fillmore for the Presidency
at the head of his columns. And MAS Fill
more changed since then? Is he any more a
pro-slavery man, or any more an abolltlonlst
now than he was then? We doubt whether
there were an hundred Wings in the State OF
Indiana in 1852, who would not have prefer
red voting for Fillmore to Scotland many OF
these same men who regretted so much they
had net'sn opportunity of voting for Fillmore,
are now Directing to him, although'there is no
evidence he has changed his opinions one par
ticle in reference to any reat question:
The editor ofthis paper at least, feels no shame
in fighting under the Fillmore and Donelson
banner. He is proud that the opportunity has
been offered him, to raise the loved and re-
spected nafse Of Fillmore at the head of the

The Pacific.

Great anxiety is manifested as to the safety
Of this steamship. Since she was due, no less
than six steamers which left Liverpool subse-
quently to her, have arrived here, viz: Persia,
Canada, Etna, Atlantic, Asia and Arago.-
She has undoubtedly met with formidable and
dangerous fields of ice and terrible gales, but
whether she has succumbed to them, and with
the hundreds of human beings who left Liver
pooi in her decks, lies buried beneath the wa
ters--or is now, disabled and almost powerless,
slowly making her way to port, remains to be
discovered. One Of the vessels sent to cruise
for tbs Pacific, the Alabama, after an absence
of two weeks, has returned bringing no news.
The last arrival, the Arago. brings not a word
ofnews Of the missing steamer. The rumors
that she had brought news are unounded.

Locofoco Editors and the Late Wing Party.

1t is very common practice, says the Gin
cinnati Gazette, for Locofoco editors to indulge
in extravagant praise the OldWhig Party and
its great leaders, Clay, Webster &c. The ed
itor of the Louisville Democrat has been guilty
of this contemplate practice, fer Which TIE
Louisville j ournal handles him severely. We
copy its remarks for the benefit of Locofoco
newspapers in this State, most Of whom have
been mear and foolish enough to set up this
howl over the grave of Whiggery.
Here is what the Journal says:
If the editor of the Democrat tells the truth
now when he says, that he had high regard
for the sincerity and patriotism of the Wing
party, and If he tells the truth when he pro-
claims that he looked upon Henry Clay as a
bold and gallant champion of what he consid-
cred right, then for the greater portion of his
| life as an editor, he was habtually and daily
and knowingly as vile slanderer, as base a
caumniator, as shamelessa traducer, as atroc-
ious villifier, as infamous a liar, as ever po-
luted Gods atmosphere with the fetid breath
| of his mouth and nostrils. If it is fact that
all his black and horrible denunciations of the
Wing party as the enemies of their country,
were uttered against party of whose "sincer-
ity and patriotism" he had "a high regard,
and fit is fact that all his atrocious and abom
Unable abuse of Mr.. Clay was levelled against
ia man "whom the whole country himself in,
1cluded, regarded as bold and,galfant cham
pion of what he considered right" then has hi
editorial career been one Of unparalleled ard
unapproachabls infa1ny. When an editor &C
knowledges, that, during his whole editoria
life till within the last year or two, he was q
4 calumniator and a william, what confidence o.
shadow of confidence can he claim or ask o.
expect from any human being fofwhat he may
assert or asseytrate row or hereafter? VIVA
fate does he deserve unless to be repudiateC
and scorned and loathed and kicked by til,
whole race of mankind?

The Attempt to Nominate. Geo. Law.

The attempt to foist George Law upon the
American National Convention, as its candi-
date for the Presidency, would be considered
apiece Unparalleled impudence, if the De-
'inocfacy of the country had not frequently
paraAeled it by their exhibitions Of impudence.
George Law is far wider known over the coun-
try than was Gen. Pierce, when the latter re-
ceived the nomination of the Democratic Ma
tional Convention in 1852, and Mr.. Law would
undoubtedly make better President than
Pierce has done-a worse he could not posi-
bly, have been with his shrewdness and sound
common sense. Yet we regard the introduce
ton of his name before the American Conven-
>tion as ssfiece of impudence never equalled
7outside of the Democratic party. We were
glad to remark that it met with proper re-
Duke. His friends polled vote for him most
abgutdly small in view of their tremendous eff
forts before the Convention. The result has
"doubtless taught them. that the great Ameri-
n.party is made of sounder and more con-
sentative material than that for which they
had given itseredit, and that the running for
the Presideney'of comparatively unknown
man, in imitation of the Old Line Democratic
party, wilthever form any part of their policy
.Ltis,to chopped the friends of Law will now
earnestly labor to secure the election of Fill
umore. They did the utmost for their candi-
'date and he must be satisfied of that fact, how
ever much he may object to the result. Il
he has been deeply bled, as is'charged he has
received an expensive lesson, which we hope
will not only benefit Rimself but others who
may be aspiring ,tc Office beyond their needs
On this part Of the subject, the "R. E." cor
respondent of the Cincinnati Times, thus
speaks:
George Law has been most egregriously
humbugged in this caucus. A. set of shrewd
politicians have induced him to spend money
freely, under the idea that he could be nomi-
mated for the Presidency, when l do not be-
lieve that such an idea was truthfully enter
tained by any man of the clique who managed
and controlled the affair either in New York
or Philadelphia. Mr.. Law has spent consid-
cradle money, there is no doubt of that, but his
meagre vote on the first ballot showed chat his
his friends had either been grossly deceived
or that they were cruelty deceiving Mr.. Law
Had he received fifty or sixty votes, even W.
might have some charity for those confiden
gents who predicted that Mr. Law would be Sc
lected ION the first ballot by thirty majority,
as was often told me. am now constrained
to look upon the whole matter as plan to re
lieve our public spirited Live Oak" either
from a little of his surplus revenue; and an
also inclined to believe that the plan worked
well and paid handsome dividend to the Di
rectors. Mr.. Laws next speculation viii
probably be to whip England by contract, anC
settle our little affair with the Danish Gov
eminent. Either ofthese jobs would no doub
pay better than trading for the Presidency.

Shipment ofGrape Vine Slips.

Among others Shipments yesterday, we no.

grape vine'slips, carefully put up, from Decker
g. Kra1nefs vineyard adjoining this'city and
destined for Baltimore, Md. AS Straaos show
which way the wind blows. so wemay presume
do grape vine slips sometimes! This illustrates
at least, that our vineyards are beginning to
attract some attention abroad. Messrs. Decker
& Kramer have very large and thrifty vino
yard in sight of the city, delightfully."- situated
on.the side of high prominence of land, and
facing the mornings sun. They are supplying
slips in any quantity 10 those requiring them,
and we have no doubt will hereafter send a
large amount East, as disadvantages for sell
ing become better known.
Considerable attention is being paid to the
cultivation of the vine here, in which our Ger
man citizens are more particularly interesting
themselves. We have already number o
vineyards around us, and every year is increas
ing their number What is better, the more
wine that is produced, the higher price does j
seem to bring. There is no more profitable
crop than a good grape or wine crop, and prob
ably under no other kind of cultivation can al
acre of land be made so profitable. There j
no reason why every man who has spar
acre or two of land may not have his owl
vineyard. We hope to see them multiplying
around us. Our climate is we'll adapted 70
vineyards, and we have plenty of spare LAM
well suited to the purpose.

The AMERICAN PRESIDENTIAL n NOMINATION.
We congratulate the Philadelphia American
Convention upon the wisdom displayed in the
choice of candidate for the Presidency, and
it is gratifying. that, the selection has been
made from our own State. We take it that
the old tine Wings generally wifi ., chserfully
lend their aid in electing Mi!lard Fillmore once
more to the+Presidency of this Union. Wkath-
er they will do this silently, without organi-
zaton. or whether, retaining their organiza-
ton, they will call national convention, and
that convention, by an address to their breth-
rem throughout the States will recommend
the support of Mr. Fillmore, and assign reasons
therefor, remains to be seen. For ourselves,
we greatly incline to the latter course, for rea-
sons which we have heretofore partially ex-
planned, and may heraeftermore fullyset forth.
