WASHINGTON, Jan. Is.
The question discussed over Mr.. Hult's
nomination was whether he was a coer
ciou lists, his friends denying it, and main
tanning that it is his earnest desire to
prevent bloodshed, but to maintain the
laws by every possible peaceful means.
l. During the debate on the nomination
Mr. Cri,tcuden is id to have taken the
ground that II. Kentucky is now cen
trail State, enjoying all the prosperity
consequent upon the presen. Union aud
form of government, she would never
consent 10 its breaking up and the forma
ton of Southern Contederacy. of which
she w,uld be border State, exposed t.
all the dangers aud losses OF such po

1t is stated that was much affected
during this portion Of his remarks, and
the manner in which he upbraid.d the
Southern men who defeated the cnmpro
mise in the Senate was very severe He
took the position that the Union must be
reserved at all hazards, either by peace
able means or by force, and that force
used against the lawless citizens Of gov.

Every day we see the disadvantage the

be true or not | do not know, but | do
know that farmers are now hau ing wheat
from the nei ghborhood of the Chicago,
Iowa and Nebras Ia Railroad, aud from
even north Of it, to Muscatine. The
price of grain and hogs at Onion Grove
and Mechanicsville is and has been far
in advance of the price paid at Anamosa'
SO much so that farmers near the latter
place sell their wheat at Mechanicsville
and Onion Grove. The Anamosa road
is not now paying the running expenses,
and they will be compelled to have
southern connection. IF they build
road to connect with ours at Flournoy,
they will have connection, when the
line is completed, with Keokuk; which
will give them a southern market; and
benefit them as much as the north and
south road will benefit Cedar county;
and by the route from Anamosa to Flour

two miles nea. er Chicago than Dubuque
