g. MEAT AND BREAD. During the past week
cattle and hogs were sold in New York Tor less
than their first cost West, and considerable
number of each could not be sold at any price
This led to tremendous panic in the meat
market, as all the drover5 and large dealers are
destined 10 be heavy losers, and there Will be
many failures. The news. was te!eglaphed
west, and one of the results is shown IN a dis
match from Buffalo in the New York World,
which says: --

at MILWAUKEE,, Chicago, Toledo, and CleIclahu'
from Jan |, to Nov. 3, 1865 and 1866 show
in 1866 an increase of 46S,7 $50 barrels OF flour
and u ,222l3S bushels of grain. The present
prices are only kept up, therefore, because the

| THE ADVANCE IN BREADsTuFFS. The high
and advancing prices for breadstuits cause ne
little disappointment and even dismay to the
public The reason for this advance cannot DC
found in short crop The crop is neither de-
Gcient in quantity nor quality, and the corl
crop was so abundant as TO have been su9jec
Of general exultation. .......... v-......
There is nothing either in the prospect Of {
foreign demand for our breadstutts that IuStl
fes or causes any advance In price CT Hour
Some mercantile authorities attribute the rise
to speculation The wheat, they say, IS mo
nopolized by those who WELD the paper cur
renoy, through the banks or otherwise. Bu
what causes this speculation? Nothing bu
the superabundancc of paper, money, who!
can be used for no regular and legitimate busl
ness purposes But it is not only in the pres
ent but in the prospective redundancy Of cur
rency that the cause of exorkitant prices is tt
be found. Speculative operations follow ne
cessariIy from deprecated and redundan
currency.
An advance in price of all commodities ma.
follow from the continued burden Of taxation
Taxes are a drain upon business capital, AM
diminish the power of reproduction.

REspITED. The Governor yesterday grant
ed respite to John Robertson, sentenced in
Stafford county to be executed for murder on
the 10th inst, until the 2Sth of December.
Robertson, it will be remembered, is the
murderer of the Limerick family. The deed
was committed on the 25th of August last.
The Limericks resided about three miles from
Fredericksburg and the first that was known
of their horrible murder was the discovery that
the house had been burned down on the morn
ing alter it was committed The charred re-
mains of Mrs Limerick were found in the
ruins, and those of Mr. Limerick were found
about quarter Of q mile from the house.
Convincing circumstances afterwards led to the
arrest of Robertson It seems that he did not
expect a reprieye, as he confessed to the full
particulars of his guilt few days since. = Rich.

PRESIDENT JoHNsoN's CoURsE.--The Wash
ington correspondent Of the Baltimore Sun
states that letter by member of the Cabinet
to friend OF the ADMINISTRATIVE In New Eng
land, states that the apprehension that the
President will attempt to force Southern repre-
sentatives into Congress-, or do any other i'm
prudent thing by which the public peace will
be disturbed, is entirely unfounded While he
will exercise the power which he possesses uu-
der the constitution in furthcrance of the meas.
ures which be thinks are best calculated to pro-
mote the public veal, he will not quarrel with
Congress for pursuing the same independent
course. He regrets the disagreement between
the legislative and executive branches Of the
government, and would yield much totleffect a
reconciliation He will not, however, sacrifice
his principles, nor violate the constitution ac7
cording to his interpretations it, no matter
what pressure is brought to hear upon him.
The same letter further states that. "the Pres
ident will violate no law nor fail to perform the
duties which are legally devolyed upon him.
He will veto every bill, that he may regard. un
constitutional, no matter how unpopularit may
be for him to do so. But he will7executeew
INSCRIPTIONS fidelity all laws, and especially
those to which he has declined to give his Off
cial sanction" 30 - "a 80 22@ ~ q
