Wheat higher in milwaukee than in New York

e.
According to very late reports, wheat
WAS higher in Milwaukee than in New
York This may be eansed in various
ways we think however that New York
BUYERS are not as well advised of the uni
versal failure as western buyers it may be
that the home consumption of wheat will
/ be equal to the supply, 50 that none can
he spared from the west. At all events,
the matter Of price will be narrowed
down to this; what neighborhood can
spare any wheat? If none, then the
price will be merely for the seller to fix
aud Judging from the past it might be
Eauestion whether the farmer or the grain
Spectator has the more conscience. We
do rot believe any wheat should be spared
from Grant County: because the expense
of shipping wheat away, then shipping Il
back again is like selling off All man:
crop in the fall at so cents bushel, thel
buying in the spring at sl,0o.
Had the crops Of 1858 been an average
wheat must have been extremely low. a.
Iii is, we are without the means Of know
ling what 1t will be. That there is plenty
of wheat in the county to last till the llar
west Of SO, we have not doubt, but the
surplus viii not be heavy to drug an,
market.

WINDING UP BUSINESS.

Our columns are freighted with legal
advertisements, giving notice that unless
il certain sum is paid by 4 particular day,
Ia lot of land will be sold to pay said mon
ey. This supply means that the creditor
inten.ls 10 take The land held on mortgage
securities for money due him. Nobody
wants to tuy land tefore land is rot
|ccnvertible into money at present. This
legal method of cAnceliing debts by Sheriff
Sale is a mere matter of form, and will go
on for months and months. 1t is the only
way TO square accounts, because debtors
will hold on to their land, however heavl-
lis mort gagged, till the end of life. The
money is no longer to e had on loan, and
Creditors can't pay the interest on loans
made last year Most Of those 10 debt
should have let their property go last year,
instead Of hiring money al 25 per cent
I'ho siebts,of the country must be SONAR
led before the crisis can end. This should
be kept in view CONSTANTLY Business can't
resume till old accounts are squared, by
fair means OR f,'ul.

Curious stage Of the Panic.

There are seasons of love and hate-o
oh eerfulness and sullenness, of good will
and animo,ity; each virtue is followed BY
its opposite, as perfect faith is followed y,
unbeIief. Never have We seen the ex
|;re,ues Of virtue and vice so perfectly de-
yeloped and following in such quick sue
|ces-ion as during the present panic. I've
months ago, there was a perfect faith that
1.-The crisis was over, or about To weld to cir
cnmstances the crops. failed, and unbellef
-nlenness aud fierce anger came over ali.
| il-hunor has since prevailed SO universal
t.y that every mouth is crooked and ready
if,r quarrel about the least lrItle. Cred
itors sue their neighhors often for spite
l,he ,nerchan, i. olit of sorts, the farmer IL
crabl,ed; the laws are wrong, religion fall
because it don't help people out OF debt
POVERTY only is ersialle because it stick
10 a man; riches ke wings and conaci
ence is trusnt. Satan appears to be
holding jubilee over his recruits, and n,
Ilonht thinks of enlargipg his dominiou'
by annexation.
We think a good state Of feeling will fol
.ow after This sullen period, just as certain
a. virtue is followed by lis opposite. Now il
not the time for compromises; wal. Ill
better hupor prevails.

DuBUouE WHITE LEAD CoMP ANY.-A
manufactory of white lead is being CARR ed
on at Dubuque by wealthy company -
A new process for oxydising the sheet lead
is used and patented by the company -
The warm scid is let into the rooms in
which the lead is placed and the rooms are
warmed by steam. In the old process, the
lead and acid were put in pots, and buried
in horse manure. The heat generated by
manure aided the Towering or oxydising Of.
leaf This was troublesome process, re-
curing many wrecks; the new plan pre-
pares the lead in much shorter time and
the loss is not SO great. 1t is also claim
ed that the lead or zinc paint manufacur
ed by the new process is superior to the
Did method and can be made cheaper
WILLIAM E. HoRNEa, Esqr., formerly Of
Lancaster, is secretary Of the Dubuque
Lead Company. Geo. II. Cox has Just

adopted at once by every farmer II tbs

farmer raise half as much grain as he has
raised and The price will double his argu
inent ran thus ii only costs half rs much
land only reanires half the land and nclos
ures to raise half the usual supply of grain
therefore, BY selling this crop for double
he will make just as much money from

men known "a hard haads: he believes all
the world in league against the farmer

that money is sea- ce because the merchants
send it al off for goods He also holds
that no farmer should sell his wheat till il
brings dollar and half besides other
selfish notions. We tried to argue agains,

that even were farmers to raise only hal

REThe Washington Unlo,s begins to
fear the result in Illinois, and saws it is
painfully obvious that but one mode Of har
monizlng the democracy Of that state is
practicable, and that is the Withdrawal of
Douglas from the Senal oria canvass. The
Union says further that Douglas is not a
Democrat and does not represent Demo-
cratic principles, and his success would not
be Democratic triumph. The inference
of course is that there is no Democratic
candidate in the field, and the Simon
