The Grain Movement.

It is estimated, says the New York
EXPRESS. that the sales of flour, wheat,
and corn. in the New York (city) mar.
kets, during the last week, amounted to
something within a million and a ho!f Of
dollars. The greater proportion of this is
understood to have been on European
account; but there were operations of
some magnitude, undoubtedly, on specu-
lation. Prices have been slowly, but
steadily advancing, and, from present
appearances it is probable that the top
has not been reached. The harvests
throughout Great Britain are turning out
so badly, that heavy deficiency in food,
there, would seem TO be certain-a great
er deficiency than can well be made good,
from the ordinary sources of supply, on
the continent The American markets.
therefore must be largely drawn upon,
and the result will be, that the farmers
will soon get back, in exchange for their
cereals, not little of the specie they
have been sending over sea to pay for Eu-
ropean importa:ions.

Fearful Accident.

The following despatch tells fearful
tale:
CHICAGO, Sept. S.-The steamer Lady
Eigin OF the Lake Superior line, leaving
here last night, was run into by the
schooner Augusta off Waukegan, ut half
past o'clock this morning and sunk in
80 minutes in 800 feet water. Only sew
enteen persons are known to be saved,
including the clerk, steward and porter.
There were from $50 to 400 persons on
board, among whom were the Black
Gagers" and "Rifles" and several fire
companies from Milwaukee. Col Lums-
den, of the New Orleans Picayune, and
family were on board and are supposed to
be lost. The steam tug Queen left this
morning for the scene OF disaster.
a later date furnishes particulars of
the catastrophe, from which we get the
following summary:
Excursion party, 300; regular passen-
gers. 80; steamers crew, 50. vi these but
% are saved.

Monroe County,

The candidates for District Electors adj
dressed the people of Monroe at Madison
Vile last Monday. There was large
crowd present. Mr.. Caldwell made the
hes. speech we have heard him make in
the canvass. l, was in fact, an effort of
which any man might be proud, and
made . deep impression on the audience.
M. Caldwell is doing more than giving
satisfaction to the friends of the cause
wherever he speaks: he is arousing and
convincing democrats of the importance
of the issues around them, and that the
only refuge and safety for the country is
to put down and crush out sectionalism
by arraying themselves in the support of
the Constitutional Union candidates.
Mr.. Bridges made strong appeal for
his candidate, Judge Douglas, and press
ed upon the democracy that in running
after Breckenridge they were but aiding
the Disunionists in their work of treason
against the government. We believe Mr..
Bridges is setting a good many of the
deluded Breckinrdgeis to thinking.
Mai. Keys effort on Monday consisted
for the main part in trying to cover up
the Secession movement, and 10 ridicule
the notion of danger to the Union. His
anecdotes were very well told. and under
ordinary circumstances would no doubt,
have been laughed at heartily But all
reading, rejecting people know there is
danger--at least, that there is party in
favor Of disunion, who advocate it, and
who announce through their papers and
from the stump that in the event Of Lin
coins election, he shall not be permitted
to take his seat. And the attempt to ig-
more these facts and ridicule and laugh
them out of sight, is not what Union-lov-
ing. patriotic Tennesseeans, though they
should be democrats. are exactly prepar-
ed to do. Nero, having ripped up his
mothers womb, sat down and fddled
while Rome was burning. The Secession
leaders, having disrupted the democratic
party and brought the country to the
verge Of disunion, now swear there is no
danger, and laugh and joke as though
the whole thing was but funny and side
splitting farce. They must, however, not
be disappointed if a very large majority
Of the people take more serious view of
the subject.
We think we saw evidences on Monday
of a salutary reaction among the people
A

majority Of votes in that county in No

ABuNDANcE.-A Wisconsin correspond
ent OF the Ponghman says-Never before
was such glorious harvest time as the
present season. The crop Of wheat in
this single State is estimated at 90 .0O0,UI0
of bushels, of which $4,000, 900 or lG 600,
0on can b" spared for the foreign market,
bringing at present rates an income to
the State Of Sl2,000,0G0. And besides
the wheat, the crops of oats and Indian
corn and other grains are abundant and
will swell the amount OF profits to an
amount, it is thought, sufficient to tree
the State from its pecuniary embarrass-
mentS.

Gen. Ticket aud Freight Agent.

Ba" Maj. Key, Mt the close Of his effort
on Monday, declared with face rs sol
emn as old John Browns on his way to
the gallows, that the conservatives in all
directions were rallying to Breckenridge
and Lane. Such an attempt at joking in
the present condition OF his party, is as
much out of place as fiddle at funeral.
p<1~ The Seoessionists want to dissolve
the Union to protect slavery. They are
radically mistaken. There is no safety
for the institution outside the Union. Its
only safety is in the Union. This is SO
plain that no one can fail to see it.
p2s- We want attention to this fact: in
Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia and Flori-

torious, hundreds of democrats are daily
abandoning the Secession ticket and de-
claring for Bell and Everett. This is no
mere assertion. All our letters and pa
pers. from those States assure lis Of the
fact.
