The John BrOWnltes Support
Lincoln.

At a meeting recently held in Boston, r. J..
Hinton read letter from James Redpath, the
British emissary and coadjutor ofJohn Brown,
in which he stated that he should not be pres
ent, but thought it was time that slavery should
be abolished, by political parties, if possible
if not then by armed parties sofinsurrectionsts. of
His heart throbbed for the slave of to-day and
he thought it would be blessing to send some
of the slavedrivers out of the world When he
was in the South he had endeavored to make
the slaves strike out for their freedom, and he
thought he should live to go again amongst
them, and encite them to insurrection. He
did not believe in an armed insurrection first,
but if slavery could not be abolished other
wise then they alluded to John Brown, and
concluded by stating that he should vote next
November for the nominee of the Republican
party he believed in the sword-insurrect ction
out of slaves makes men, emancipation out of
slaves makes free niggers." As the friend of
the slave he would rather see to day negro
Heenan than negro Frederick Douglas.

Of bushels Of corn The hogs which enter
into commerce, have consumed fly million,
Of bushels Of corn. The statistics Of Ohio
show that in that State, ten millions Of bush.
ella were consumed by fstted hogs, Ten millions
more made into whisky, Eve millions export.
ed and the domestic animals Of the State have
consumed the residue.
From the general testimony from all parts
Of the country, we have a right to conclude
that the crops Of 1850 are uncommonly good;
and, from the facts we have stated, il will be
the largest ever raised in this country Il is
evident there will be demand for Il. The
only question ts--how far that demand is to
come from the foreign or the domestic mar.
kets4 The European accounts indicate rather
short crops-certainly not full ones. In that
case the foreign demand viii be increased
and the prices kept up TO fair point On tho
other hand, If there is no increase Of the for
eign demand, the prices will fall use will be
found for the grain in the country The i'm.
mense number Of domestic animals furnishes
a ready mode ofturning corn into meat, which
Europe always needs In any event, the in
ternal commerce ofthe country will be greatly
benefited by the abundance Of grain. The
small traders, the factory men, and laborors
will be prosperous, while the railroads, steam
boats and common carriers Of all kinds, will
end abundance TO do The blessings Of good
harvest descend upon all classes OF the com
munity

The Crops of the Ohio valley.

"a veteran observer" communicates some
Interesting statistics and calculations to the
New York Times in regard to the grain pro
duct of the country. 1t seems that there was
an increase of thirty-eight per cent, in the ag-
gregate grain crops of the United States in
1889 from ls49 as shown by the censusses OF
| lS40 and 1850. In the calculation are inclu-
ded wheat, corn, oats, barley, rye and buck
wheat The years of both these estimates are
represented as unproductive ones as will be
that of 1859, the statistics of which will be
shown by the census of 1860 The aggregate
grain lin ls49 was s67,OOO,OOO bushels
The increase of the amount of land cultivated
and Of cultivators, and of agricultural machin-
cry is likely to make the increase in the last
ten years fully what it was from 80 to 40,
which will make the aggregate grain crop of
1859 over eleven hundred and ninety-ive mil
lions of bushels.
Of the s67 100000 bushels Of grain raised
in ls49, 5O2, 100000 were Indian corn, and of
this over one-half was raised in the Ohio Val
ley, the State of Ohio producing 10000, 900,
the greatest amount of any one State. 1t also
appears that ten Northern States do not raise
as much corn as either one of the Ohio Val
ley States 1t also appears that nine South
ern States do not raise as much as Ohio, Indiana
and Illinois. 1t appears further, that the corn
crop increased in the Ohio Valley from 1910
to 1859 seventy per cent, while in all the res
idue of the Union, the increase was but forty
six per cent
In regard to other grain it seems that the
Valley States have also maintained their su-
periority, although by no means to the same
extent The wheat and oats raised in Ohio,
Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky and Tennessee,
are one-third of all raised in the country.
From data in his possession he estimates
the crops of 1860 TO be this;

The GaribaIdi Expedition.

A Turin letter in the London Netos has the
following remarks on Garibaldi's plan of ac-
ton:
The departure of volunteers fer Sicily have
lately revived, for no less than four thousand
left this country last week on board of Eve YES
sells. Garibaldi will therefore, soon have a
solid basis of operations, and in the mean time
he is organizing the Sicilians so as to make
them contribute to the expulsion of the Nea-
politans from Messina He will exercise them
in skirminishing, and by degrees inure them
to danger, for at present he can not place
much dependence on their military virtues.
But with ten thousand volunteers from North
ern and Central Italy he will be able, and that
right speedily, to attempt some decisive feat
of arms

cupied How can they reconcile it7 II eiQh
years ago obedience 70 the Constitution an,
friendship for the Union required that n,
provisions Of the Fugitive Slave Law should
be enforced, and the compromise measures
endorsed is il not equally obligatory upon
them to do so now, or admit that they are No
longer governed by the Constitution, or on
tertain friendship for the Union2 We know
that there are many among the Republican
party, who will claim that they have not chan.
ged in regard to the law If this be so, how
comes Il that they now support for Judge Of
the Supreme Court man who stands pledg-
ed by the platform on which he ran in 1851,
TO nullify tito treat it as Of no binding
forceg' How comes it that they now support
for Presidential Elector at large--Jos. NJ
Roor-who occupied a similar postion2 How
comes il that they are acting with party
which demands its repeslg' Is it not appa-
rent to every one, that either the so called
conservative Republicans hare changed, or
are now supporting candidates, and acting
with party, whose principles they do not
endorse2 Is their hatred for the Democracy
so much stronger than their love Of conserva-
tive principles, that they prefer to aid in pla.
cling in power a class Of men whom they know
to be sectional, rather than that the Democ-
racy should carry Ohio2 SO far as the com
promise measures are concerned, the Demo
cratic and the Wing. parties of the country
occupied precisely similar positions in 1852.
They both demanded the enforcement of the
Fugitive Slave Law
Why then, now that the Whig party has
been disbanded and the Democracy maintain
the same position occupied by both parties
eight years ago, conservative men, will you
not unite with us, and aid in electing a man for
Supreme Judge, who stands ready and wiling,
faithfully honestly, and firmly to enforce ~
constitutional enactments-a man who, if
taking his politics as guide in deciding
questions of law, will be governed solely by
the Constitution Our candidate, we are
proud to say, IS man well known to the peo-
pie of this section. He has spent the best
portion of his life among us, and we have yet
to learn, from either political friend or foe,
the first word against his character as pri- |
vate citizen, his ability as lawyer or his
honesty as a man. In short our candidate is |
a man for whom all can cast their ballots and |
feel assured, that if elected we will have an
honest upright Judge.
We appeal to you, men of Montgomery,
without distinction of party, to carefully con
slider the course which has been pursued by
the Republican nominee, during his time of
service upon the bench-consider the ultra, \
fanatical, nullifying views he entertains as
partizan-consider the influences which, and
the men who, brought about his late nomina
lion. We make this appeal, feeling confident
hat if you, laying aside political prejudces,
will take the trouble to examine into the char
acter and the position of the two men, you will
not hesitate, If you yet stand by the enforce.

Here is the enormous amount of fourteen
hundred millions Of bushels of breadstuffs of
various kinds, all of which is food for man il
he chooses so to use it but as there is enough
for two hundred millions of people, and we
have only thirty, it is obvious the greater part
must be applied to other purposes Commerce
must be employed upon it
OF wheat there is much less to spare than
is commonly supposed, but still more than the
foreign demand generally requires. In this
year we can spare thirty millions, and we can
not spare more without consuming more In
dian corn in bread But the latter is almost
indefinite and full half the American nation
is as ready to eat corn as wheat bread An
extra demand for wheat -four is met by
using Indian corn for the domestic consump-
tion.
The great question is, what is TO be done
with Indian corn2 1t would be used for ma
nure if it were not most happily provided that
the great staple of the country may be en-
ployed for UarioaS Hses. Corn is used for
both man and beast Not only this, but it is
used for nearly all animals, and is manufac.
tured into whisky. However great the corn
crop there is aIsoays demand for it,
Then the growth and consumption of this
staple forms large element in the internal
commerce of the country. New York city,
for example, furnishes a market for 10000
beeves, They have consumed three millions
