parently reliable authority that the
President lately rendered the portfolio
of the Treasury to Mr.. Walker, who

Walkers large landed and CONNER

confusion. Possessed of almost bound
less wealth, he devotes but little time
to it's care, and consequently cannot
accept any public position until "or-
der reigns in Warsaw" As finan-

his speculations prove successful, and
it is believed that under his manage.

Hog Trade.

Hogs. hogs, hogs, everywhere. The
pork season has fairly commenced and
our streets are filled with hogs from
one days end to another The hogs
arc generally looking well but are not
as fat as they should be. Farmers,
generally, commence feeding too late,
and the consequence is they are al.
ways forced to drive their hogs to
market in a poor condition. There
is more profit aud more honor in fat
tening ten hogs we'll, than half feeding
twenty. When corn is scarce and
high it pays well to economist, and

The news of the Rebel press from

correct nor authentic. It is pretty

Pocotaligo. II, as Hardce alleges,
he subsequently suffered a repulsc at

Presidents Message.

A salient point in the Message is
its emphatic statement to Congress OF
the necessity of curtailing the con.
stantly increasing circulation of the
State banks. whereby larger loan is
made to them than to the Government.
and the currency is more deprecated
by them than by the greenbacks. We
have dwelt SO inveteratcly on this top.
ic that our readers are already famil-
lar with our settled conviction. The
present Congress will, probably, con.
fer no such distinguished honor upon
itself or service upon the country as
to adopt the Presidents recommends
ton. He might however have piled
them with tho same argument as he
uses in reference to the constitutional
amendment AS it ia sure to pass
sooner or later they might as well
pass it FIRST as last" We believe that
the next Congress will adopt the mea.
sure necessary to complete and har-
monize Secretary Chase's Banking
System by snppressing the rival cir
culation Of the State banks. which
now depreciates our currency. We
shall then be the strongest Govern
mcnt, financially. in the world.-CA-

The Indian War.

Most Of the hostile tribes Of Indi-
ans have sent representatives to Fort
Sully, on the Missouri, with ovcrtures
for peace. Captain Pell. Gen. Sully's
Adjutant General, refused to receive
the Indians until they gave up The
white woman they hold as prisoner.
They agreed to this and sent delega-
ton for her, which had not returned
at last accounts. Everything now
looks favorable to an early peace with
the Indians in upper Missouri. Gen.
Sully has gone to Washington to &C.
cure authority to treat with them. AS
soon as the tribes can be learned bet.
ter than to feed and furnish ammuni,
ton to the few wandering bands on the
northern boundaries Of Minnesota, the
Indian war can be completely ended.

From General Sherman.

>Sherman's movements still engross
a large portion of the attention of the
rebel newspapers. They say he re.
NAMED with his principal force in the
vicinity of Mllen for several days for
the purpose of gathering in supplies,
and that on the Cd he resumed his
march from the north of the town, and
on the Sd was some distance south of
it. On the 9th instant his advance
was reported skirmishing with the
outposts Of the rebel forces defending
Savannah, and it was expected that
on the 9th he would reach the coast.
The Augusta Constituencies be-
lieves that since leaving Atlanta,
Sherman has not for moment hesita.
ted as to the point to be attacked, or
the road to it. 1t says that, on lcav.
ing Millen, lie would so arrange his
army as to move on Savannah with
out fear of attack on either flank.
Wheeler confesses that, in his en-.
gagement with Fitzpatrick, he has not
taken many prisoners, because the
Yankees have refused to surrender.
The Charleston Mercury learns that
General Foster has fortified the posi-
ton which he took up after the battle
on Honey Hill, where it is supposed
he will remain until Sherman's army
reaches within striking distance of the
coast. 1t states Foster had been for
some days and nights sending up bal
looms, sky-rockets, etc, supposed to
be signals to Shcrman's approaching
host.
Richmond papers give further par
ticulars of Whceler's fight with Kill
patrick, from which it appears that
Wheeler was obliged to fall back ow-
ing to Kilpatrick's superior numbers.
The rebel General Anderson was
wounded at GriswoldvilIe, and he is
censured for rashly throwing his
troops against breastworks. Every
house but Mr.. Griswold's was destroy.
ed in Griswoldville.
The Augusta Constitutionolia OF the
Sd says: Sherman appears to have
halted to grind corn. As he tends
toward the barren counties of the
South, it becomes necessary to make
proper provision. His foraging par
ties are continually driven in by our
cavalry. and his forage is reported TO
be short"
The Augusta (Ga.) CAronide says
of Sherman's march "On the route
they destroyed as far as possible all
mills, cribs, gin mills, &C., and car
ried off all stock, provisions and ne
grocs and when their horses gave
out they shot them. At Canton they
killed over two hundred.
Gen. John A. Logan left Washing
ton for the front on the 9th, on brief
visit TO Gen. Grant. Gen. Logan gives
it as his opinion that the slow prog
ress of Gen. Sherman is the very best
evidence of his entire safety and sue
cess. 1t was his programme to make
frequent halts to rest his men, while
detachments would scour the country
to destroy roads, bridges and rebel
supplies Had he encountered any Sc.
rious opposition he would have sooner
reached the coast. 1t is stated that
Gen. Logan is on his way to join Gen.
Sherman. .,..s. .fE
