Last week we went into store in Pittsburg to

went out the gentleman waiting on us said: "Mr.

This is very fne-two millions in two short

wedding at the close If this was the only view
of the subject, il would be magnificent But
those two short years have desolated many, many
happy homes. made many sorrowful widows. end
bereaved many innocent little babes of kind

a golden wedding and orange blossoms. fo-

two sides. Mr.. B. "has cleardd s.. 900 .O00l" and

There has been a good demand for the hog
product, and large amount of new mess pork
sold at SIS, and OF lard at l2@l24c, and one
sale was made at 1890, and head aud gut lard at
ll@llIc; green hams at 81 to sac, and
shoulders at size.
In old bulk meats and bacon there has been
quite large business done. chiefly in connection
with the Government demand. and the sales
made to the Commissarist indicate the market in
that line. Old bulk shoulders sold at 512c to
dealers; smoked do. at 6 to 616c loose. and 6lac
packet Old lard is held at IL &c. but we heard
-Of no sales. The demand Tor new mess pork and
lard has been speculative aud local many think
ing that there is money in both at present prices.
Hardly anything doing with reference to foreign
market. Small sales of short clear middles were
made at 915c Short rib are held at 81 (0S1ac,
Cumberland ut &c. aud long clear at &c.
Old mess pork held NJ Sl4 50@l5 90 for
packing of 1862, and SIS 50@i6 90 for that
of 1888. but there is not much demand, and
very little was done during the week.
Sugar cured hams selling at 1870 for the
next and following month, and lard Mt l2c for
January. We may say here. in brief, that aside
from the demand for army use, the legitimate de
mand is very trifing and but little faith exists in
the consuming districts at present prices.
Flour advanced fully Soc per barrel during the
week, with fair though not active demand. and
the market closed dull under the news from New
York
Corn and oats are higher, and both have been
in active demand.
Wheat rather heavy, but toward the close a
speculative demand arose, based upon the high
price of corn, the impression being that wheat
will be used by distIlers largely. in case corn re
mains up.
Barley advanced. Indeed the high price of
corn is startling and absorbing general attention.
and various theories are being advanced to az,
count for it
Whisky is up Sc per gallon. closing at roc.
Sugar d to &c higher

Molasses unchanged.
The demand for sugar and coffee has been very
large, fully up to any previous season at this
time. The people have become accustomed to
present prices, and use both more freely.

rne Administration policy Towards


We find the following in the Delaware County
Free Press. Republican print:
"Hon Geo. W. Julian spoke at the Court
House last Thursday evening. He had good
audience, and was listened to with attention. He
discussed the policy of dealing with the rebel
States, after the rebellion shall have been
crushed, with ability and force. He insisted that
the only plan by which permanent peace can be
restored, is TO reduce the rebellious States to
territorial condition, and place them under the
control of Congress until they become populated
with loyal people and it to be admitted into the
Union upon an equality with other States"
These few words develop the policy of the
Administration. The idea that States can lie
obliterated and reduced to a territorial condition,
subject to the will of dominant party in Con-
gress, Is a new Interpretation of the Constitution.
The President and Congress both soemnly de-
clared that they had right desire to interfere
with the domestic institutions of the States, that
there intention of conquest, but the war
was to be prosecuted for the single purpose OF
enforcing the national authority over a
rebelIious people. But this is M longer
declared to be the purpose of the war.
Now it is avowed by the Administration party.
that the rebellious States are to be reduced to a
territorial condition and placed under the control
of Congress. We should ut least be consistent in
the prosecution of the war. or the purposes to be
accomplished by it. The argument has been that
no State had the right ofseceding from the Union
If such be the case, where is the power to force
any State to change its relation to the govern
ment? Can we deny the right of secession and
then legislate State out of the Union Z Ii
State cannot discover its connection with the
Union by its own act, is not the party in power
wagng a war to establish the right of secession
by reducing State to a territorial condition If
this doctrine be admitted it will be concession
that the Federal Government has the power to re-
duce any State to territorial condition at its
pleasure. Such untenabe positions cannot but
have the effect to prolong the indefinitely.
unless the people willing to sacrifice their in
dendence TO a central despotism.

A Contrast.

We publish in to-day's issue an article from
an English paper on the elections in Prussia.
There was an issue between the people and the
crown, and it appears that the formerstood up
boldly, fearlessly and successfully for their
rights This is "A lesson for the people of the
United States. If they had stood up as manfully
in vindicaton os correct principles and policy the
party in power would have made no encroach-
ments upon popular rights and there would have
been no exercise of arbitrary power. The people
in this country have yielded TO the domination of
their rulers. while the people of Prussia have res
outely opposed the usurpaton OF their King.
