The Board Of Agriculture met in the
Hall Of the House of Representatives
this evening, for the purpose of discus
sing agricultural topics. The first topic
proposed was, which is the best hog fol
Iowa? Mr.. Wallace, Secretary Of the
State Society stntnd that th~ LIS .'ot
Of Iowa, !. e. the amount exported In
| 1857, was 81, 500, 900, and that for the
year 1859, the amount would be about
sl,s00,00G; also, that if the hogs Of Iowa
had been of some of the better kinds of
hogs that the amount would have reach
ed 81, 10000.
Mr.. Paulk. of Ala,nakee county, cross
ed the Suffolk with the Essex, and
thought the cross better than the pure
blood Of any kind thinks Suffolks sub
ject to cutaneous diseases-tho Essexs
are not. Had not fatted any pure bloods
for he sold them all for SO piece when
l6 weeks old. Sold half !S> 2G:..; anu
half Essex little over two years cid, esti-
mated weight $50 pounds net. Thinks
a cross between the Suffolks and Essexs
or Mackeys, will be such as will please
all.
Mr.. Wallace gave the history of the
Chester White hog.
Mr. Stewart, of Lee county, says 4
Suffolk hog requires uniform and good
treatment.

DEs MONIES, Jan. 10.
Gov. loves Message was sent into
the Senate and House about 8 o'clock
p. NJ. The Senate dispensed with the
reading of it, as it had already ap-
peared in prirt. The House listened
to the reading Of it by the Clerk
till more than half of it was read, when
their patience gave out and tho further
reading was dispensed with. The Gov
errors message is a plain business like
document which commends itself to eve
~ man, but we wish that he had made it
at least enc half shorter. He does not
spare the printers.

the high expectations of his friends
His treatment Of Jim Browns invasion
of Virginia eommends itself to all candle
men. We think it unanswerable and "

man in the Union. Iowa has Governor

tremble and his neck will not bear the
pro slavery yoke. After the Cows In
