COMMERCIAL
OFFICE oY PIONEER AND DEMOCRAT,
Thursday. Sept. 10. ISL.


The MAKKETs.-The weather during the week
has been quite warm, and business. as conse
quence, has been slow. Just at this time our
business men are beginning TO receive their
fall stocks. and until the close Of navigation,
the receipts will be heavy.
The heavy receipts Of produce, which have
formerly characterized the fall trade, will fall
of to a great extent, this season. or prices will
rule remarkably low during the winter. This
state Of things is evident from the large har.
vest this season. which will necessarily abate
the demand in the interior.
Oats and corn are, however, beginning to or.
rive from below. The receipts Of new oats for
the week ending Wednesday. by river, were
500 sacks, or 1872 bushels. The Galena brought
up on Wednesday, 9O7 sacks Of oats, 1000
bushels, and ii3 sacks of corn, 1000 bushels,
consigned to one Of our dealers.
The market has undergone no change since
last week, and sales have been light. There is
aprospect for reducing prices in produce and
in sugar. Other articles remain firm at pres.
ent rates

~. PArL WAug CoxrAsr.--At the extra
.e.ston 81 the Legislature. held last May, char
ter was granted for the incorporation Of Com.
pany entitled the saint Paul Water Company"
for the object Of supplying the city with water.
At the time this charter wsa granted there was
another charter in existence, having been grant
ed we think, by the Legislature u ISIS. This
Company never org anilcd, until the 2sth day Of
May last, after the passage VI the last charter.
Immediately after the organization they pro
ceeded to employ an Engineer 10 survey the
lands between Lakes Como and Phelan, and
the City. The Report Of the Engineer, Capt
syberg) was published In the Pioneer; and on
the authority Of the Company, we announced
that the work Of supplying the city with water
would progress rapidly.
Very lately, however, the company chartered
in May consummAted an agreement with the old
company. by which the latter agreed to sur
render their charter, and turn over all their
surveys and papers to the new company.
On the "a Of September, the incorporators
Ia the new company held meeting, and organ
lied with the following efficient officers and
Board OF Directors:
PREsfDKsr--Na,han Myrick.
TsEAsrREK.--C. d. Gallagher.
SECKETAKY.--w WIN. II. Leonard.
DfKEcr0Rs.--iIon. II. N. Rice, J. N. Win.low.
George l.. Becker, and VIM. Diyiere.
A. the first meeting, the Company resolved
TO open books for subscription on the 9Th inst !.
and determined that they would push forward
the object Of their incorporation with the at.
most Dispatch We are assured it is the pur-
pose Of the Company to contract Immediately
f9r II the pipes Necessary 50 that they may be
''receiyed In ~. Paul by the opening Of navi-
CATION next spring, and the Engineer will be
appointed at the next meeting TO engage at
once the surveys and piers for conveying the
water 10 the city.
The Charter Of the Company provides that
within ak months from its passage the work
shall be put under contract, and within one
year from its passage, there shall be laid with.
In the city one mile OF water pipe.
From the character OF tho gentlemen com.
posing the Board Of Directors. we think there
can be no doubt OF the rapid progress ~ tho
work, and by this time next year, we may DO
able to announce that the Water Works ap.
Proach completion, as nearly as do the Gas
Works at tho present time.

A Disgusted Democrat.

Mr.. Carpenter, editor Of the Madison Pa
triot, the organ of the anti Barstow wing Of
the Wisconsin Democracy, has been to
Washington, office hunting, and like some
Of our Michigan Democrats, failed in his
mission. The following paragraphs from
his paper, which, posting his grievances,
are rare specimens of the style in which
"virtuous Indignation" can vent itself when
occasion offers:
at is we'll known that in company with
O score Of Democrats from Wisconsin, re-
NAMED in Washington about a month, to aid
in so exposing the misdeeds of the "torty
thieves" that we should forever be rid OF
them hereafter, and it must be notorious ere
this, that most Of our endeavors have failed.
The hopes Of our party in the future are
vanished, and we have been cleaned out-
The $40" find favor at court, while the old
standby Democrats, who have never been
indicted for stealing, gambling, or perjuries,
are permitted to suck their fingers al re-
spectacle distance"
That the writer is disgusted, but not un-
utterably so, with the Administration, is ev-
ident from his closing paragraph
~ am arranging some business, prepara-
tory to taking bee line for Madison to-
morrow or next day, with the full determi-
nation that the Union may be rent assunder,
the Potomac yield up its waters TO old ocean,
and become as dry as my pockets; abolition
ism revel in rampant luxury and dominion
at the National Capitol; and Chimborazo
may nod its towering head at the foot of a
molehill; that cholera, yellow fever, Group
and chicken-pox may vOmit forth their pest
ferrous and devastating miasma, to suffo-
cate the poisoned rats Of Washington; the
lice; frogs and all the plaques brought upon
Egypt by the wickedness of Pharaoh, MAJ
overrun and devastate our country, before
20 to Washington again with view Of
preventing thieves from filling places Of
honor or profit"
