A Suspicious Affair.

There is some mystery connected with the re-
cent tobscco speculation between Richmond and
Fredericksburg, 10 which the country is much
interested. Ii is well known that the Chevalier
Singleton vent TO Richmond with Presiden!
Lincoln's permit-withous such permit be would
not have been allowed to pass General Grants

Lincoln, for We are not TO presume that the
president would perm, any citizen to visit the
enc mys capitol without knowing what he was
going there Tor What was the object tor which
ne gave this permission TO the Chevalier Single
ton! The Washington correspondent Of The
New York Tribune says:

he vent uIo1 = commercial speculation clos ked

congressman surrounded bis peace mission upon

Pers Packing An the west.


From The Cincinnati Price Current
The decrease in the production OF pork in the
West. still continues, the chief cause Of which
is the partial failure OF The corn crop Of the
western states the last two years. For although
there are other influences which had a collateral
effect in leading 20 this result, the chief one was
the scarcity OF corn. for notwithstanding that the
crop Of corn gathered last year vas much better,
both regarded quantity and quality. than that
gathered In 1868. yet. owing TO tho bad failure
of last years crop, and the straits that farmers
were driven in May sections OF the country for
the want of corn. the bett supply furnished 20
them by the crop Of 1864, was more precious to
them, and they boarded IL with the care Of a
miser in many sections and although the
price procured for il In pork last fall WIS far bet
ter than that obtain able in the crib they their
hogs 10 market but partially fattened rather than
pari with their corn. This was the case especial
~ IN all those states west of Indiana. and this In
no small degree contributed to the market fall
ing off in that section, and more particularly was
this manifested Ia the falling of Of weight aud
yield of lard.
The farmers hive doubtless before this diseov
cred the mistake they made for instead of get
ling 81 to 81 50 par bushel for their corn in their
cribs. as they expected they would this spring
there lie hardly any market Tor it at sixty 20 sew
enty cents per bushe.
nc packing season was tOOfb tnlS winter, 2nu
We are therefore enabled to give our report q
month earlier than we did either of the two pre-
vious seasons, and we could have given il tso
weeks sooner but for the neglect OF packers at
two or three places 10 furnish their returns and
as il is. We are now compelled TO estimate the
number packed at Hannibal. Mo-. aud Cleveland
Ohio. having utterly failed to get any repor, from
either place
IL will be seen that there 10 q marked falling
of in the number of hogs packed in the west, the
whole business having settled down to the sans
dimensions which IL had attained before the war
And not only is there falling of \. the packing
places, bnt the amount of neat cured oy farmers
for their own use. and by store keepers 81 small
places, has been much less than usual.
The number Of hogs in the country is small,
and the supply of polk for summer use will be
light, that the risk to holders is altogether de-
pendent upon the price Of gold. Tor the supply is
evidently short enough TO sustsin extreme short
crop prices But il is equally clear tia, prices in
the tore part OF the season run up to point
which has not cnly affected the home conscmp
ton but interfeIeI with the foreign export trade
