Pork,

Heavy pork brings St.4O in Toledo and $3.50 in
Perrysburg. As yet but little comes to market Far
MRS are Problbly boiling for higher figures. At
the opening Of the season tlought pork would be
worth more than these figures butwe arc now satisfied
that these are high prices. The heavy crop of corn,
much of which is unsalsable will be fed to hogs and
there will be great surplus of pork without cores
ponding demand. Added to this will be the increased
value money account o;its scarcity. which will
alone be sufficient for dmnu.ion of at least
one cent on every pound of pork taken into market,
Even if pork should be worth = few cents more per
pound in the spriag tho cost Of packing and the
ofthe money tIus invested will more make up the
difference between present prices and those which may
be realized in the spring trade.

The MOrEElOHs.

Our adyices from Utah urs 10 the 2Sth of
October. The Mormons burned two more trims,
consisting of ifly-eight wagons, about the first
OF October. Every wagon, with all their con-
tents except those of military character, was
burned, and the tcamsters wefe given six days
provisions and sent back. They took the mules
and horses and about 800 head OF cattle. The
Amy has lost many of its mules and horses
from the serveri;y Of the weather. Two com
punies Of the Fifth Infantry had met with re-
verses. 1t is hardly possible for the troops sent
against the Mormons to susiain themselves.

Our Post Master.

Strange as it may seem, we have unmistska-
Bile evidence that mca urcs are being taken for
the removal Of our Post Master because he is a
Douglas man. We don't suppose this is the
Ieuson, but it is to be tha argument by which
the powers that be are to be influenced. Mr.
Powers is very accommodating Post Master,
and we would regret to SEE him removed for any
cause, much less for his Douglas Republican
procivitcs. True, he allows certain prying To-
cofocos into his Office, who read add comment
upon letters and packages, and some have even
gone so far as to publish, in the Democrat, what
was, or what they supposed was. passing through
the office For instance, about dozen papers
which we had sent to a subscriber at Portage,
were not taken from the office, and the Post
Master at that place returned them all in one
package. One Of these post clIice spies saw
this package, and very unwittingIy, and to the
PREJUDICE of the Post Master, went aud publish
ed in his organ that at least DOZEN subscribers
TO the Jrurnal had returned their papers in u
single package " refused Notwithstanding
these violations OF P. o. regulations, we shall
forever protest Sgainst the removal of friend
Powers for opposition to the ndministrntion,and
can but believe that those who are seeking his
removal are actuated by anything but honest
ptiucipl"s

The difference between all annual salary and
eight dollars doy, ON the action of Congress,
is quite apparent Every one now seems anX-
ious to grease The wheels Of government, where
as, under the old system, they were but too anx-
ious 10 clogihcm.
Both branches have been engaged principally
in discussing the Treasury note bill, which Sen
ator Pugh called the shin plaster bill. After
several amendments, the bill passed the Senate.
One Of these amendments provides thatthe notes
shall not be Of less denomination than $780,
Poor men can have wild cat rags, while the
rich can have U. S. Treasury notes for their cur
rency. That's modern democracy up to the hub j

any very decided results.
