Iowa Hog Crop.

1t has been the common impression all
summer that the hog crop of Iowa this fall
would be considerably short of the quantity
marketed last season, From what we have
been able to learn from the interior, from
those whom we considered most intelligent
upon the point, we have believed that it
would in fact fall but very little, if at all,
below last seasons product. This belief is
sustained by facts communicated to us by
one OF our ablest and most experienced mer-
chants, who informs us that correspondent
in Wapello county whose accuracy in re-
gard to the crop has been proved by the es-
Inmates and products of several years, as
sures him that an accurate census of that
county shows it to contain $4,000 head Of
swine, of which, if she sells in the usual pro-
portion, q, 600 will be marketed this fall.
This is very considerable increase over last
years product. The same gentleman says
that Mahaska county, which has always ex-
ceeded Wapello in the amount of hogs, will
at least equal her this year. The most san
guine expectations are INDUCED in Of con-
siderably heavier crop this year than last.
The same amount promises to be more re-
munerative, and with the prospect of an en-
HANGED amount, We reflect with much satis-
faction upon the probable extent and value
of the Iowa hog crop for 1857. 1t is doubly
important from the fact that the corn crop
is SO abundant that the price will be low.
into hogs, the full average
price Of that immense crop will be realized.

The Western Exchange. Fire and Marine In
snrnnce Company.
We are gratifed to learn that the pros
poets for the resumption of business by this
bank are extremely Hattering. Mr.. Tu1rLE,
the cashier, accompanied by a gentleman
representing a heavy banking house interes-
ed in the institution, arrived here on Tues
day evening from the east. A meeting of
the bankers Of the city was called for
Wednesday afternoon, and a full statement
of the affairs Of the bank laid before them.
From this statement it appears that the bank
is in perfectly sound condition, and that
the real cause Of the suspension was the
difficulty of procuring aid from the east in
time to meet the heavy demand upon the
the institution. 1...-s
At the meeting on yesterday, Mr.. TurrLE
voluntarily came forward and pledged his
own private property to an amount sufficient
for the security of the depositors. We learn
also, that he has pledged for the security Of
bill-holders other property under his con-
troll to heavy amount. This voluntary
action on tho part of Mr.. FUTILE, while it
shows his own confidence in the ability and
intention Of the stock holders of the West
ern Exchange bank to meet all its liabilities,
can but give general satisfaction to all in
tcrested.
: The effect of the resumption Of this bank
cannot be otherwise than good. 1t has
stood at the head of all the banking houses
of the Territory, and its resumption will
tend greatly to restore the confidence which
has been so sadly shaken by its suspension.
The most active efforts are being made to
place the bank on its former footing at the
earliest possible time, and within sixty days
from the date Of suspension, we confidently
expect it will be again in operation. We
would advise all holding claims against the
bank, either as depositors or bill-holders,
to sacrifice nothing, as there can be no
doubt of ultimate redemptiondollar for
dollar.
In the meantime, We cannot see why its
issues, with the certainty Of speedy redemp-
ton, are not as good as other currency for
all purposes of home circulation.
We understand that some of our bankers,
having entire confidence in it's ability, are
proposing to receive, and will receive the
Wester Exchange currency ON their bills re-
ceiyable. Omaha Times.

J. n. Dea.ssa.,


We suppossitis regarded - an axiom in
politics a. well As in war that desperate ends
require desperate means. And some Of our
disinterested Locofoco friends up the river,
particularly in and about Sioux City, are
acting upon this principle. In order to de-
feat our candidate for Member of the House,
}. w. DESlsoN, they have been circulating
the gratuitous information that he has given
all his time and energies to the building
Of the town in which he resides, and attempt
to argue from those premises, that if elected
he would not serve the interests Of the Dis
trict, but would legis|ate exclusively for the
town Of Denison. This is the sum and SUBJ
stance OF the charge, but they put particu-
lar stress upon the fact that he has, Of his
own accord, and without consulting them,
had an outline map Autographed, and prin-
ted upon thee of a small pamphlet
map showing, among other things, the town
Of Denison to be on or near the AID paral-
lei, and Of course on the line of the Iowa
Central Airline Railroad. In all this there
is certainly nothing wrong, though our soil
tous Woodbury. Democrats pretend that
a great wrong is done to Ida and Cherokee
counties. 1t certainly ought not to inau-
cnce the voters Of Woodbury. county, as the
interests of the town Of Denison will not
conflict with those of Sioux City, from the
fact that about seventy miles of rolling
prairie lies between them, and they will but
prove themselves either knaves or fools in
their seemingly great solicitude, that no
wrong should be committed to another sec
ton of country equi-distant, when it is but
too palpably transparent, that their real OBJ
ject is to create disaffection toward Mr..
DENIsoS, and secure votes to his COMPETE
tor. . ..5ss r .a "a sa
How is it with Mr.. CAsApY? Does he stand
upon the record any better as regards his
private interests. Is he such a cosmopolite
rs to have expended as much for every other
town in the District as for the particular
one he calls his home? Of course not
Such an idea is preposteS0us and absurd.
Then why this dislngenuous trumpery in re-
gard to Mr.. DEs1soN? Why are the Loco
focos of Woodbury. so sensitive at this time
about the interests of Ida and adjoining
counties? Did they expect, by such simu-
lation to gain a few votes for Mr.. CASSIDY?
They admit that they did. We pity their
credulity, and can ansure them that by this
display of wisdom (?) they have proved
themselves worthy to be classed in the same
category with those simpletons who believed
| that the latest advertised hair-oil would
start the fur on smooth pine board. They
had better depend upon their "dogged Dem
ocracy'' than upon such untenable strate-
gems. If you can't combat the princi-
Piles of our candidate, or say ought
against his ability or fitness for the position,
why, then, resort to the bug bears ''aboh-
tionists," "nigger stealer," and '.amalga-
mationist," with an occasional fling at
"elerical politicians" thrown in by way Of
spice. You will find this to do better exc
cution than any stimulation upon the subject
Of selfish interests and local legislation.

Pending the adoption Of the New Com.
stitution, the Democratic orators and or
gans, were felicitous IN their portraitures Of
the evils which would be cntAiled upon the
State by it's adoption. They harped long
and loud upon "negro eqality," ssnegro and
Indian testimony" and the education Of me-
groes and Indians SIN the same schools with
white children," and for fear that they may
not be fully aware Of the already partial
ful6llment Of their prophecies and predic-
tions, we respectfully submit tho following
instances:
The Burlington Haekeys, Of late date
says, that s'little niggsr," the matter Of a
dozen years old, was actually observed
"playing horse" with two white boys in
that city.
The Demoines Citizen, of the 23rd ult.,
states on the most reliable authority 'stha,
the copper-colored young immortals belong
ing to the Ink-pa-dunpty-tumpty,jumpts
tribe are coming down from the North te
apply, under the Constitution, for admis.
sion into the Des MONIES schools"
The Sioux City Eagle, of the 18th ult.
contains an announcement sufficient to dis.
turb the equilibrium Of even the most invcte
rate Of the tsrrifed-being nothing more
or less, than that veritable Indian CHIEF
of the Yankton Sioux, yelept sold Bear
went before Justice of the Peace in tina
city, and actually gave in testimony in rela
ton to difficulties between certain tribes O.
Indians.
All this has transpired since the adoption
Of the New Constitution, and yet we hav,
heard from the Democratic party, no de
nunciations Of these unparalleled atroci
ties. But we shall expect, ore long, to SCI
it Haunted in the organs, and proclaimc,
upon every street corner, that the unterri
fed have taken the advice given to JANE
BUCHANAN by political eulogist, and
Armed. and gone forth naked to the light"
to the CONSERVATION OF the s'little niggers,
and ''papooses," and the discontinue o

candidates ull stand upon this platform,
Gen. Lowe, our excellent candidate for
Governor, stands upon it. and fully sus-
.ains it, and 30 also do Judge STREET and
Mr.. DrsIsoS, our worthy candidates for
Senator and Representative. Gen. Lowe
as Governor, will recommend, and Judge
STREET and Mr.. DsNIsoS, as Members of the
Legislature, will vote for sound and safe
banking system. On the other hand, Mr..
SAxuELs declares himself opposed to such
a system, while neither Mr.. PrsEr nor Mr..

their support, but will most likely, judging
