Hunter, OF Virginia, has written letter
which is published in the Virginia papers,
defending his position. lie says that he
concurred in the Nebraska bill, not because
he was satisfied with il, but because it was
q great advance towards the recognition of
Southern principles on the Slavery question.
But he thinks the practical working of the
Nebraska bill under the new views annouced
by Chief Justice Taney, and cordially en-
dorsed hv the President will accomplish all
form on which the entire Democratic party
Of the country can stand shoulder to should
der. The right Of the South to take their
slaves into all the territory of the Z. S.,
and hold them there unmolested, by virtue
OF the Constitution, is he thinks, the great
Democratic principle at which the South has
been aiming for years.
He disarproves the course Of Gov. Walk
er, especially in bis pledge to the people Of
Kansas that he would oppose the Constitu-
ton about TO be formed there, unless ii be
submitted 10 a vote OF the people, and he
hopes that President Buchanan will also dis
approve the course of Walker. AT the same
time, considering the very favorable views
expressed by Buchanan on Southern 'princi-
Piles and Southern policy, he don't think it
best to oppose the President outright, even
should he fail to censure the conduct Of
Walker and remove him from Office.
In fine, Senator Hunter thinks it best to
accomplish the ends and purposes Of the
Shareholders by aid Of the power and pat
ronage OF the Administration, and 10 work
with and for it 50 long as they can use it,
and no longer.
The tone of the South Carolina and Geor-
gia political nabobs towards Buchanan and
the Democracy Of the North, is that Of the
overseer Of the nggers on the plantation
Senator Hunters bearing is probably more
like that Of the master to the overseer when
he requires him to accomplish a certain Job
OF work with the hands OF the farm. Mr..
Hunter says, to his fellow Shareholders, Blu
chanan has done well, and has managed the
hands on our Northern plantation very much
TO our liking hope he will continue to do
well, but If he fails to meet our demands we
can discharge him, Just MS we would IN i'm
practicable overseer. Mr.. Buchanan cannot
fail to understand the intimations of Mr..
Hunters letter, and we doubt not he will re-
double bis efforts to meet the wishes Of his
Southern masters.

With respect to the probable range Of
prices during the ensuing season, We do not
apprehend that we shall have a much lower
range than the present one. Taking into
account the partial loss of the potato crop,
the full employment OF the manufacturing
operatives, and, above all. the continued in
hux of gold from California and Australia,
the consumption of bread corn will be larg-
or than was ever known
1t is probable that after wheat sowing
considerable quantity Of wheat will be
brought to market, but we apprchend that a
demand for good wheat will come from the
north Of England that will take of any sur
plus that may be brought forward. Upon
the whole, therefore, we feel convinced that
the present average price of wheat will be
maintained with little variation throughout
the season, witch will thus prove amply re-
munera.ve to the grower without being op.
pressiye to the consumer

Probable Destructien OF the Pota.
Glop In Europc...AnslciP de-
mana for eur DrcAdstUfas.
From the London Mark Lane Express, Oct. II.
Bv the Board Of Trade returns we find
that, during the six years from 1851 to 1856
inclusive, We have imported Of wheat and
-four as wheat, 2S,622,s73 quarters, or an
average Of 4,71o,4l0 quarters per year
With an average crop, therefore, we shall
still want an imported amount OF nearly five
million quarters especially when We take
into accoun, the loss of the potato crop
which, we fear. is too well established to
admit of n doubt. The last three weeks,
indeed the disease has assumed q yirulence
equal in destructiveIess to that of the worst
period of its prevalence and this extends
not only to every part of the United King
dom, but to France and a considerable part
Of the European Continent.
In France, the alarm created by it has led
the government of that country 10 prohibi,
the export Of grain until September, 1858.
The extent, indeed, to which that root is
cultivated there (from q to million acres)
renders the loss u serious national calamity,
as it forms the chief food of the peasantry
AS was the case in Ireland previous to the
famine. Notwithstanding, therefore, that
the crop of wheat in France is above an av-
erage, the loss OF the potato, and deficient
crop Of maize, will prevent our receiving
that supply from thence which We had cal
culated on.
The following 10 the summary of imports
into Great Britain for the coming season, as
estimated in the foregoing statement:

CT In the annual report Gust published)
Of the Steamboat Inspectors for Cincinnati,
the annual imports and exports Of that city
are valued at Sll5,00O,0O0. More than
$500, 900 are invested in the means OF riy-
er transportation. The Inspectors make
pointed alusion to the canal at Louisville,
which is the property Of the Z. S. govern
ment. They fully demonstrate its incapacr-
ty TO accommodate the immense commerce
that passes the rapids Of the Ohio. Steam
boa'nen, and, indeed, all persons compelled
to use the canal, have long felt its inconve-
nience and incapacity. The commercial in
terests OF every western aud south western
State imperatively demands improvement in
the navigation at Louisville. The most
practicable plan tina, has yet been proposed
contelnpates an enlargement Of the present
canal, and the construction of new one on
the opposite side Of the river.
