Gov. WlsE.-The Herald publishes letter
purporting to come from Gov. WISE to friend
in New York, on the next Presidency. The
Governor does not hesitate to avow that he car
beat DoUGLAs, or any Other Democrat. IfWIsz
wrote this foolish letter 1--WE are well satisfied
TITS hoax he will stand before the country a
greater ninny than ever. He is about as fit for
the Presidency of this Republic as the Devil is

chance Of being the Democratic nominee as
bxEcHEs does Of being elected TO the Papal

Too LEARNED.-"Jcsse," the travelling editor
of the Dubuque Times, has been round the
country good deal, and he usually gets up a
nice description of town-of course the size
and minuteness Of it depends upon the No. Of
copies Of the Times which are called for by the
village proprietors. In one of his rambles on
Turkey river he finds some curious things,
which are mentioned in a late letter, but which
many Of his readers will be at loss to recog-
nize; smaller words, and more Of them, would
have done just as we'll:

(through the papers) to have challenged the
strongest Infdel to discuss with him the Divine
origin Of the Scriptures" For the credit of

dean, beyond hope of success. We all hope in
the Immortality of the Soul, but there are few
who do not sometimes doubt the doctrine. The
less controversy about points, and the more EN-.
ulation in good works, the better for the Church,
in these days of free and easy investigation and
entire independence of ecclesiastical control.

weather. Markets. &c.


The market for Grain in Chicago, Milwau-
kee, St. Louis, and other points, is as quiet as
death itself. 1t is so dull that quotations are
valueless as guides. Occasionally spasm will
take the spectators, and under trifling home
excitement, wheat and -four will advance few
cents, but the advance frightens buyers and
down goes the price again to the lifeless stand
ard. In a few weeks change for the better
will take place. The excellence of the crops
throughout the States is not a sure thing, by
any means, though the product generally is
above the average. Mr.. BRADLEY, of the firm
of Bradley & Co., of McGregor, has just re.
turned from long trip throughout Northern
Iowa and Minnesota, and he tells US that there
is no estimating the amount of Grain which
will be delivered at this port, provided the price
is sufficient to pay for the hauling. Mr.. B.
showed US specimens of wheat gathered in a
dozen different localities on his route, and we
never saw handsomer berry come out of the
ground. The weather is suitable to the proper
curing of it, and in few days most of it will be
in stack. The teams of the west will scarcely
find room in our narrow streets this Fall and
Winter, and our Warehouses will be unable to
comply with the immense demands upon them
For new Wheat 60 to IS cents is offered, but
there is no move made yet in the trade, and with
the exception of liberal jobbing business with
interior merchants, trade here is dull, and will
be SO probably for three weeks yet.
Weather excessively hot, and river fallina,-

A Senator.
A letter from the Chickasaw Senatorial Dis.
trict advises US that there is fair prospect
of electing CoNcER, the Democratic nominee,
over Powers, the Republican candidate. Pow
ERs is represented to US as man Of small cali
bre, and what is worse, he is now laboring under
the charge of illegal voting. It is said that at
an election two years ago, PowERs voted before
he had been resident of the State six months,
as required by law. The Grand Jury indicted
him-they were all Republicans but two or
three-the Republican Prosecuting Attorney
advised strongly against finding bill, but not
withstanding this, he was indicted. He de-
manded an immediate trial, which was granted;
Judge WILLIAMS decided the indictment bad,
and it was quashed; but the case was appealed,
and will be spread upon the records of the Su-
preme Court
The above is given us by gentleman who
has never deceived ss, and hence we give it to
the public. If Mr.. Powers is in the shape here
represented, We are of the opinion that he had
best be retired, and respectable member of the
party placed upon the track. No party should
be strong enough to carry an illegal voter to
the State Councils.
