REDUCED PRICEs.-The ,produce ,mar
kets are feeling the money pressure, and
lower prices for four wheat, corn, and
cotton satisfy the holders Our debts have
to be paid ofsand in this process prices
will have to go still lower, and become
settled, and food be so cheap that we can
afford to go to work before bdsiness will
flourish again AS all prices are settling
at the same time, the relative values of ex-
changeable products wilfnot bo muchlal-
tered by this reduction, so that farmers
viii really get as much Of exchangeablC
value for their products as they did under
high prices. They may not get tIbdt.onc
dollar for their wheat, but If that doIlai
pufthases as great a supply Of groceries
or domestic goods as two dollars did du
ring the expansion ,they do pot lose by the
reduction, When one dollar does the

A good Republican.

The Somerset Democrat, speaking
Of the Hon. David Wilmot's elevation
to = Judgeship, in Pennsylvania, some
what doubts the propriety of such a
selection. 1t seems that David is an
impnlsivc man, and not particular
ly select in his language = as the,
following remark attributed to him
some months since, would seem to i'm
ply:
II am determined to arouse the peo'
pie to the importance of the slavery
issue, and get up an organization
through which they can get control OF
the government. And if / become
satisfied that the people will not assert
their rights, then I'll be dbl don't
JOIN the party that | think will send
the country to HI the quickest
The Democrat adds: 1.-THE profanity
we would have left out, but Tor fear he
would not recognize the quotation, and
therefore accuse us Of "garbling" his
speeches, We conclude that he has
made up his mind that the people will
not assert their rights, and he has
therefore, picked out his party, anG
gone into full fellowship"

Money In New York.

The N. Y. Tribune of Wednesday
remarks:
Money is remarkably easy. The
Bank Statement has revealed the
strength Of the banks, which is en-
couraging to money lenders. Loans
are easy on call at per cent. Specie
is coming in freely from the neighbor-
ing cities, and the West and South
The Persia, to sail tomorrow, will take
about S75O,OOO in specie, but the specie
shipments have ceased to be of any
importance, from their smallness.-
Next Monday another arrival of ST.
10000 from California is expected,

Our little city has heretofore stood up
manfaIiy and cheerfully under the des-
pending accounts from sll parts Of tbs
country, unslI within few days, the
phia Of community has grown cherries
and painfully contracted, The uniVer-
sal distress throughout the land is be-
ginning 10 be severely felt in our OWE
heretofore healthy business circles, and
all classes seem to have been electrically
ssiEsd with the prevailing epidemic,
stHard Times, yielding as they have nee
essaTily to its depressing Influences
The public phiz looks CarewOrn and dis
courAged, as if worn out in body and
soul, dcsirous only Of some secluded
place to stretch out the bones of poSr
exhausted nature until dag of more
cheering prospects.
This is all wrong, decidedly wrong
for when the storm RACES she hardest tai
more need of determined effort. Lst eT'
erybody ksep up good spirits, and viii
busy hands and brains remain Steadfast
at their posts, and if We cannot BY
combined effort knock old Hard Times
into q cocked-hat, he's q tough eatss-to'
