following information:
! have delayed (a"aiting authentic infor
maton) reporting the almost entire loss Of
the wheat crops of this year in several of the
most important wheat growing governments
(distrcis) of Russin; and open winter and
long drought are assigned rs the causes.
So little of the surplus grain produced one
year is kept in the country for the next
that, in view of the prospective short crop
and consequent inadequate supply even for
home consumption, the small stock now on
hand has been for six weeks or month past
rapidly advancing in price, and is now held
at rs per cent above the spring quotations.
1t is stated that, except where great land
transport will prevent it, all the grain will be
sold and retained in the interior, little or

Mr.. BUCHAHAH's PoLIcY.-1hc New York
Herald, in an article commenting on the let
ter Of Mr.. Keitt, of South Carolina, and
the course of Mr.. Atchison, and other pro
slavery politicians, touching Kansas affairs,
points out what it regards as the true policy
of Mr.. Buchanan. 1t says:
What, then, is the policy of Mr.. Bnchnn-
an! II he enforces the admission of Kansas
into the Union according TO the letter and
the spirit of the Kansns-Nebraska bill, Kan
sas will unquestionably come in rs u free
State--a solution which will split the present
democratic party Of the South into frag.
ments, and raise upon their ruins n Southern
sectiona! and secession party. On the other
hand, should Mr.. Buchanan consent to aid
these secessionists in smuggling Kansas into
the Union MS slave State, the Northern de-
mocrocy will be annihilated, and the admin
istration will become even more impoteht
and contemplate than tina. of poor Pierce
"Let justice be done though the heavens
should fall" Let the administration put
sue the straightforward course which il
has adopted, and the American people will
sustain it. ct ii fall back and it is lost
Let the fate of Pierce stand as warning,
and the example Of Jackson as the guide for
the present treatment of all sectional agta-
tors of discord and disunion. The only
choice to Mr.. Buchanan in this next Congress
will be the absolute surrender of the North
ern democracy to w. II. Seward and Com.
pany, or the loss of n restless, reckless and
impracticable Southern faction from the par.
ty camp.
1t is evident that Mr.. Buchanan has de.
termined to pursue the policy indicated by
the Herald, which has since the election
passed from the head of the Fremont or
ganizaton to the lead of the Buchanan or
sham democracy.
