The Hog CrOp.

The hog crop is just now an interest
ing subject of speculation among our
dealers. The following is from the Ke-
okuk Gate Cfty, of the 9th
1T has been the common impression
all summer that the hog crop of Iowa
this fall would be considerably short of
the quantity marketed last season.
From what we have been able to learn
from the Inferior, from those whom we
considered most intelligent upon the
point, we have believed hat it would in
fact fall but very little if at all, below
last seasons product. This belief is
sustained by facts communicated to US
by one of our ablest and most expert
enced merchants, who informs us that a
correspondent in Wapello county, whose
accuracy in regard to the crop has been
proved by the estimates and products
of several years, assures him hat an ac-
curate census of that county shows it to
contain &c, 900 head of swine, of which
if she sells in the usual proportion, 23,-
900 will be marketed this fall. This is a
very considerableincreas over last year.
The Louisville Courier of the 26th says
During last week contracts for this
winters packing were made by Mr..
Macklin and others, in the vicinity of
Frankfort, at 5 cents gross. Purchas-
ers in the vicinity of Greensboro and
Henderson were put buying from the
hooks, but now buyers have almost
wholly withdrawn from the market, and
prices may be regarded nominal, all re-
fusing to make offers at the figures we
have given. The unusual pressure of
the money market is regarded as the di-
rect cause of the move, and no quota
tons can be given at present.
"The hog cholera is said to DO pre-
vailing to q great extent in this vicini-
ty, Col. Steel, of Harrods' creek, having
lost over one hundred hogs. Other
parties have beeb equally unfortunate
in the neighborhood."

ming, when the returns came in and they
found they were beat, the hue and cry
of fraud and illegal voting were raised
Before it was all fair. The tune wa:
changed to suit the times.
The fact is our opponents attempted
to carry the county by the importation
of voters from other counties where they
could spare them. At least one hun
dred and fifty to two hundred of them
were challenged on the first day of the
election. And much time was taken up
in doing so, consequently not more
than two hundred and fifty votes were
given on that day. Some of these i'm
ported voters, on being asked under
oath, said they had come here on Sun
day; some had come to sell some things,
some had come to work, some had come
on one business and some on another.
Some were from Topeka, some from
Wakarusa, where they had claims; but
yet they considered this their residence,
but did not know how long they would
stay-perhaps not longer than to-mor-
row. Such men were told they had bet
ter go back to their claims and vote
where they lived.
We charged upon this party, in our
last paper, that it was their object to
~eolonize this county with imported vo-
ters from Douglas and others, in order
to carry it. We charged upon them
with getting up the excitement about
settling on the Delaware Reserve lands,
in order that their imported voters might
claim a residence here and vote. Our
predictions have been verified. These
fellows have attempted to carry out what
we predicted. But they were tharted in
their unholy efforts to carry this county
by fraud. Aud now they charge fraud
upon the Democratic party, because they
were unsuccessful, and to cover up their
own iniquitous deeds and purposes
But thanks to the invincible Democra-
cy, our opponents could not quite play
out their game upon us.-LearenUorth

An EIoauent Letter.

The following letter, among a large
number of others from distinguished
Democrats, was received by the commit
tee of the Young Mems Democratic
Union Club, ofNew York, and contain.
the regrets of the writer at not being
able to participate in the grand demon
atration at the Academy of Music il
hat city:
FROM THE HON. JAMES M. BUCHANAN
BALTIMORE, Sept. %, 1857.
GENTLEMEN / have had the honor
to receive your invitation to attend and
address q grand ratification meeting Of
the Democrcy of the city and county Of
New York, to be held at the Academy
of Music on the 9th day of October next
It is barely possible that I may be
able to accept your invitation. 1t L
can / will, but the probabilities are
against it. At the last Presidential cleo
ton, when the Union rocked as a toss
ed vessel in a storm, the Democracy Of
the city of New York, with firm nerves,
united purpose, sleePless energy, and
''iron WILL" rushed to the rescue; and,
rs she gallant captain and his crew in
the late horrid tempest resolved to say
the ship or sink beneath its keel, so did
they to save the Union or to fall be-
meath its ruins.
No higher tribute can be paid to pa
t%riots; no greener wreath be woven for
freemen's brows than such as belong to
those who achieved the brilliant triumph
which was then achieved by you. In
your note of invitation you speak of the
cordial reunion of all true Democrats,
aud a termination Of all past differen-
ccs. Gentlemen, this is expected OF
you. 1t must be so, and will be So
Every dictate of patriotism, every i'm
pulse of duty prompts to such an end.
Look to your countryl-safe, prosper
GUS, and happy in Democratic hands,
Look to a Union sauad, and saved in
p,rt by your fidelity and look TO COM
ing days, when mayhap the cohorts of
liberty may again be called upon to
fight the battles of the Constitution.
Your next election, it is true, is pure
" local; bat then, local as it is, it will
have. a general bearing. Never, then,
allow it to be said of you that by local
discord you have done q wrong to those
whom you helped to elevate, and of
whose ADMINISTRATION you feel so justly
Proad.
IF I should not be with you, please
present for me the following sentiment:
The City of Neto York-'The first
municipality on the continent" and at
soane future day the first municipality
of the world.
The last election proved what the
Democracy could accomplish when uni
ted and resolved. Let the next, by a
still cordial union and a fixed resolve of
all true patriots, brighten the lustre of
their their her glorious achievement.
l have the honor to be, with great
respect, your friend and servant.

PERHAPS many of our friends are not aware
yet that LEsu sells tue cheapest goods of any

another ction at his store is, that he doe
