The entire sittings Of the Senate this morn

The Louisville Price Current of the 5th, contains
the following:
The hog crop, as the pork -packing season sp-
proaches, attracts attention, and the opening or
ruling price of hogs for slaughter is asked. Az
far rs our observations extend, the packers in this
section have, as yet made OFFERS have no stated
price, and Of course, have made no contracts.
Farmers and drovers have high expectations. as
Stunning that the crop here and throughout the
West will be short
In Missouri the crop is considered to be short
but We learn that late feeding and an abundance
Of corn win make the product come nearly up to a
fair average in weight Of pork and lard In low.
and Wisconsin the yield is said to promise fair.
and in Illinois a full average in number with an
excess in weight. In our own State Kentucky.
and Indiana and Ohio, the present information
calculates short yield in the number Of hogs for
slaughter, but very material increase in the
weight, as compared with last season. The srsat
surplus Of corn and late feeding will result in :
much heavier product Of pork and lard than was
anticipated some time ago. Packers and buyers
are quietly awaiting the approaching season, evin-
cling no disposition to contract, and We can he's,
OF no reliable offers at any price. The pork paek
ing here this season is expected to be heavier than
usual, as increased facilities have been made, with
an accession of dealers The city packers viii be
prepared to slaughter and pack as many hogs a.
at any previous period. In Chicago We hear that
few sales Of hogs for fall packing have been
made at l1@ I2c gross.

Iowa CoIoxEIs AND REGmrSrs.- - This
work by Capt. A. A. Stuart, of the l7thIows
and published by Mills h Co., Des Moines, is
now before us. 1t is superb volume, the
mechanical execution is very fine. Captain
Stuart has done his work we'll. He has been
most indefatigable and painstaking in the col
lection of facts, and judiciously selecting and
arranging them, he has made History that
is well written, accurate, reliable; rejecting
the highest credit upon himself as its author,
and which should be in every Iowa home.
The book is dedicated ITO the onmon Sol.
diers of Iowa, who by their constancy and
bravery and without due honor and Just COM
pensation have made the military record Of
the State what it is. They have made and
sustained the worthy men whose sketches are
herein given and hundreds of them have de-
served the highest military positions within
the gift of our State Executive. They have
borne the burden of the war, and aretenants-
Uncommon of the States military renown !;
and let it be their proud recollection, that,
though their names may never appear in
print, they did their full share in saving the
country from ruin and shame" These and
their friends will be purchasers of the work.
The price of the work is SIS. When the
cost Of material and the expenses Of the fine
plates which ornament the work are taken in
to consideration, this will not appear dear.
1t is sold by subscription only. Our young
friend, Mr.. Joseph Fletcher, of this city, a
most excellent young man, and a veteran Of
the Third Iowa Cavalry, is agent for Lee
county and commences canvassing at once.
CoNPouND1sG FELoNIEs. and Off
GERS are frequently Internationally guilty of
this offence. The report of the Grand Jury
at the late session of the District Court here
referred to this matter as follows:
s'The Grand Jury beg leave to report fur
Their, that quite number of criminal cases
which was brought before some of the COM
hitting magistrates have been compromised
by the parties interested, and by the sanction
of the magistrate before whom said cases
were pending. The Grand Jury are satisfied
that said magistrates did not act corruptly n
permitting said compromises, but that they
were mistaken in their construction ofthe law
relating to the compromise of criminal cases.
The grand jury are of the opinion, and are
also instructed by the District Attorney, that
Chapter 243 of the Revision of 1860, relating
to the compromise of criminal cases confers
the power to compromise criminal case
alone upon the District Court, and not upon
Justices of the Peace, or committing magis-
trates. y
Ordered by the Court that this Report be
published in the Keokuk daily papers.

MELEE AT KNoxvILLE.-We understand
that there was a terrible combat in Knoxville
on the morning previous to the election, in
which some thirty persons were engaged.
Axe helves, pitchforks and weapons of that
character were used with bruising and bloody
effect.
The row was finally quelled by the personal
interposition of Governor Stone, Just as revol.
vers began to be drawn.
