Hoes.-The Cincinnati Gazette Of 18th
Says
The market for hogs may be considered as
having opened at $560aS5,75 per 100 lbs.
net, and at present these figures are firmly
sustained, with more faint indications of a
lower currency than were observable week
ago. Most Of the hogs that have arrived 90
far, or will come forward up to the lst of
December, will be required to ill contracts.
The markets for products opens more favora

hundred thousand head cut, will be taken out
OF the market about as fast ns II can be made
ready for shipment. SIaughtsrers are paying
25c per head premium for Hogs.
The Louisville Courier of the 18th says:
We could hear of no movement in the
market yesterday, and do not think buyers
or packers are offering over At cents. The
slaughter has not yet fully commenced,

Who ARE TO BE THE OFFICERS OF THE

Democracy named in connection with the
Speakership, ORR, of South Carolina, and
PHELPS, Of Missouri. The Washington cor.

For Clerk out two candidates of promi.

There are numerous candidates for Door

ton.
1t is generally conceded that a Mr.. John
son, of Virginia, will be Postmaster of the
House.
The great bone of contention will be the
public printing of Congress. That is worth
fighting for. The millions of dollars of work
is MOTTO be sneezed at, these times. The
candidates are understood to be Harris, Of
the Union; Banks, of Virginia, and Stead
man, of Ohio.

jury Tria! and Trial by Nswspapers.-
The New York Evening Mirror mourns over
the incapacity Of the city Of New York to
furnish al impartial jury for the trial of
crimes and very justly points to that as one
Of the impediments to the proper administra-
ton of justice in New York. But then, the
Mirror, strangely enough, sscribes the Diff
Guilty 10 the mode in which the law on the
subject Of the challenge of Jurors is admins
tered. If the Mirror would reflect little, IT
would see that the evil arises from very diff
ferent cause; and 1t is, that the moment any
great crime is committed, it is discussed aid
re-discusSed and ovcr-discussed Icy the city
newspapers until everybody's mind is filed
with superficial conclusions and prejudces
so that he is incompetent TO be an impartial
juror. We don't know what the remedy is
for this evil; but the first step towards remed Y
is to sec distinctly the nature of the evil it self
