shipments for the FAN of Ises.

The close Of navigation has suspended
further shipments Of produce from this
section for the present year. The Joun-
tilul harvest which rewards the labor OF
our farmers was never moro abundant
than this year. The area given to wheat
was greater than ever before, and the
average yield per acre will compare ia
voraLly with former harvests. The low
prices which have ruled in the market
have caused falling off in the fal! ship
meuts-many Of the farmers venturing
10 hold their wheat till spring. There
fore. these figures by no means represent
the amount raised for expectation.
We have made every effort TO get the
exact quantities shipped, ana where we
were unable 10 procure the precise
amounts we have made our estimates
carefully ana considerably.
The following are the shipments since
Aug. Is, handed us by our forwarders,

DIR. Holland has satisfied himself that the
average American girl is more beautiful than
her cousin across the water; having a greater
delicacy Of feature, and finer makeup gem
orally. She natures earlier and quite likely
fades sooner; but the fact that she is prettier
is not to be disputed. The American girl is
perfectly at home in society before the Eng
lish girl has even been permitted to escape
the eye Of her governess or her mother. The
American girl may be much too forward, but
he is sure the English girl suffers by too great
bondage.

sketch Of Woodruff by Mr.. G. j. Foster of

Victory in Chicago.
AND ELSEWHERE.

The great popular reaction against radical
ism, which started at the state elections last
fall, and was proved to be moving forward
with q mighty sweep by the elections this
spring, received another tremendous impetus
from the result of the election on Tuesday in
Chicago. The election was for Judge and
Clerk of the Recorders court, and aldermen
in the various wards Both political parties
had held conventions and made nominations
and then commenced one OF the fiercest can
ly two weeks one could find scarcely anything
in the editorials of all the dulles of the city
but clectioneering diatribes in reference to the
pending canvass.
On Tuesday the opposing hosts met face to
face ct the polls, where the crowd was such
that hundreds were unable to vote. All the
election officers being radicals, the old dodge
was resorted to of closing the polls at the ear
lest minute practicable under the law in the
democratic wards, and keeping them open I'M
til all the votes were in the radical wards.
Yet notwithstanding this unfair game, the re-
suit was the defeat of the radical candidate for
judge--the rcdoubtable Col Bob Smith by
91o majority, and the defeat of the radical
candidate for clerk by 1870 majority.
This is a democratic gain since last year Of
4,S4s, and in three years of $3.50 The demo
Gratis also gained four aldermen.
The result was so unexpected, yet so cheer
ing to the Democracy at Ottawa, that on re-
ceiving dispatch from Capt. Diler on We'd
nesday morning, the big gun was hauled out,
and true Union salute of 81 guns was fred
Bully for Chicago! We congratulate her
noble democracy, and the whole country, up
on this magnificent and joy-inspiring result
Three rousing cheers and ''tiger" for Chi
cago.
But the victory at Chicago is not the only
one for the week. At Quincy, where the dem
ocrats were defeated a year ago, the radical
destructionists, after severe contest, were
put to fight with nearly thousand majority
against them
In Pekin, where it had been nip and tuck
heretofore, the democrats carried every ward,
with gam of 800.
But better than either was the result at
oomington-heretoforc very hot-bed of
all the Odiousisms growing out and forming a
part Of the grand dclusion-radicalism. Hith-
erto 500 had been a moderate radical major
ity in Bloomington. On Monday the demo
Gratis carried the city by 235 majority!
