The four million point has thus been turned,
and the question now is how much will the crop
exceed this hitherto unsttainablc point? Should
the receipts from this time to LIST September be as
large as they we're last year and year before for
same period, the crop viii exceed 1900 900 bales.
The new crop promises exceedingly well thus far.
The St. Louis papers come to rs freighted with
censure of Governor Stewart for his veto of the
Railroad bills Some Of these papers descend to
gross personal abuse. We are inclined to think
that experience will not show that the Governor
has done the city of St Louis great an injury as
the Republican and other papers would have the
public believe. The debt of the city and county Of
St. Louis is very large In case of any extern
sve crop failure, that city and county would have
to stand in the gap between reputation and the
payment of the bulk of the interest ON the State debt
also. There is no city in the country where people
have hitherto evinced higher sense Of honor, OF
preserved their credit more nobly than ST. Louis;
but that very account, and In order to maintain
the high credit they have won, they should not
make their burthen heavier than they can carry.
Three or four years hence, Missouri win be better
able to build railroads than it is at present To
issue four or five more millions of dollars worth of
bonds now would be to run o risk which no honor
able and prudent Missouriah should willingly en-
counter. The following is the message Of Governor
Stewart concerning an extra session.
