The oironlor of Blaokmar, BoberU,
Chandler & Co., commission mer-
chant of St. Lmm, datV^ the 10th
inst., contains some interesting state*,
meuts and speculations concerning
the supply and fmuro prices of corn
and proviwiona. Aa regards tbe corn
orop of the country, they say :
"Tim crop, in the first, place, is more
than two million bushels short. lu
the second place, a very large per
centago of th is crop was spoiled; and,
in the third place, tbe high price of
pork has induced a very liberal eon*
sumption ol'eoru upon tbefurin, leav
ing the amount ol sound tnerchanta
ble corn available lor market unusu-
ally small. ' This is slioWn to La true,
bi tbe fact that the stockstrtled to be
iu store at at all important points is
very modi under tho average. When
tbe demands of the cottou States are
considered, with the probability of a
large increase in the demand for oon*
sumption on the 'Plains' this season,
by reason of great emigration, every
candid mind will conclude that the
probabilities for a considerable rise in
the price amonnt to almost au abso
Into certainty."
They estimate the pork packing at
very nearly tho same aggregate as
that of last winter—perhaps one hun-
dred or one hundred and fifty thou
Rand hogs more- They allude to the
amalluoMS oi the stock on hand at the
commencement of operations this
winter, and to the fact that packing
commenced earlier than neual, and
add :
"When these facts before us, and
the farther facts that a much larger
area will be planted to ootton this
year, and that Immigration—ever
consumptive of baoon and corn bread
—is pbitring in a great tide into the
South: at this moment, we cannot bew
lieve that a ranch larger reduction in
prices can possibly be forced, and we
firmly believe that it would be .the
paitof wisdom for planters to pur*
chase their bacon now. The amount
of side moat out of smoke, and avail"
ablo, is very light, and any sudden in-
crease of orders will be snro to push
prices up a cent. Moss pork may posn
sibly tonch $25, but we are inclined
to belidve that an advanoe is very
shortly to take place in this article,
unless the amount of hogs yet to ar-
rive very largely overgoes ■ 100,000
bead. Wo feel pretty sure the bulk
of the mess pork stock will sell at
from $28 to $30, take the year
through."
We believe that these are very val-
uable [calculations by our St. Lonis
friends. Indeed oar readers may re
member that we made predictions ol
the continued high price of corn and
bacon several weeks ago. We coald
not then see—neither can we now see
-any good reason to hope for a mate-
rial decline at any time throughout
tho year.
In view of the facts and opinions
of this circular, above noted, we are
rather surprised at advice which it
gives tothecotton planters concerning
the pitching of their crops for this
year, vi*:
"Tho North w.;U plant an immenso
corn crop this year, and wo predict
that when it comes upon the market
fully it will not rango much over 40
to 50 cents per bushel, if as high.
In view of tliiB fact it would seem
most excellent policy for tho South to
plant all cotton and sugar tliey can
take care of, and rely upon the North
for their corn and pork."
There is no proposition plainer to
our comprehension than that a neg-
lect to raiso corn and pork at tlio
South will help to bring abont or
keep up tho high price of tboso com-
modities in their great producing re-
gions. It may help the Western far
mors and pork raisers, but how will it
nfl'ect tho cotton planters t It is at
least doubtful whether a large cotton
crop will bring more money to the
pockets of tbe planter than a small
one; and if they pursue a policy that
forces them to buy corn and bacon
from tho West, and at tho same time
help to run up the prico of those
necessaries ol lile, what profit can
they derive from an increase ol tbe
cotton cropl If three millions oi
bales will sell for us much money (or
nearly ns ranch) as four millions,
would not the better policy bo to keep
the crop down to three million* and
devote the surplus labor to the raifl-
ing of corn 1 Let planters remember
that they "relied upon the North for
their corn and pork" last year, or for
a great portion ot it; and that tho
corn crop of that region was cut
short, while its pork crop is not so
great as to afl'oid us any reasonable
prospect of cheap bacon. What has
happened once may happen again --

eight loagues ol laud, embracing near-
ly all the improved portion of thin

the Northeastern part, and extending

Most ot the defendants and others

reasonable as be will.

Arkansas Amuskmknts.—Wo learn
from Mr. 1'ennistou, that on Saturday
the 111 th nit., a bloody affray occurred
iu Hamburg, Ashley county, Arkan-
sas, between a Mr. Herron, son of a
planter in the neighborhood, and a
Mr. Johnson, a school teacher from
Texas. Tho parties were on friendly
terniB, and on tbe day in question had
been drinking freely together, when
Johnson remarked, in a jocular man.
uer, " I'll bet you a thousand dollars
yon cannot kill me at the first shot."
" I do not wish to kill you," Herron
replied, drawing his revolver; but I'll
take the bet," Johnson also began
to draw his pistol; but before he
could get it out, Herron fired, the
ball striking Johnson's forehead, just
above the left eye. Herron then
mounted his horse and ro<^e off. Just
below the town he met two negro
men and a nogro woman, at whom ho
fired, killing the men and severely
wounding the woman. We learn that
Ilerron has been arrested, and is now
in jail awaiting trial. At last ac-
counts (Johnson was not dead, bat it
was thonght he oould not live.—N-
0. Times.
Tho manner in which the Hamilton
Republicans have been huntod down
by a party in power, is without a par-
allel in political history. All the Kes
publicans in botll Houses, we believe,
who supported General Hamilton
have beon ousted except those who
gave in their fealty to the Davis Re-
publicans.
Judge Cooper and Judge Crudup
aione remain. Tlioy vote forM. C.
Hamilton and for Mr. Flanagan for U.
S- Senators, but this does not seem to
lie enough, lor wo noticed in yester -
day's Journal, a demand for Mr. Coo
per to give some other evidence that
lie is iu line with the majority. Un-
ions ho does so, w<< prosnine he will go
the way of Jack Evana, Plato, Arm-
strong and others.—Austin llepubli-
can.
Tho Dallas Herald thus complains
of the boys:
There aro daily and nightly upon
our streets many boys, exposed to all
manner of temptations, who should
learn to love home, who should culti*
vate their mental faculties, instead of
worse than wasting precious timo in
chasing Foil3 in thn streets, who
should ponder well tho words of the
immortal Daniel Webster: "If we
work upon marble, it will perish ; it
wo rear temples, they will crumble
into dust; but if we work upon odr
immortal minds—if we inibuo them
with principlea, with the just fear of
God, and love of our fellow men —we
engrave on those tablets something
which will brighten through all eter*
nity."
The pleasant intelligence ia com-
municated that Prince Bonaparte,
after his acquittal, which is taken for
granted, is coming over to America to
livo. lie will, in all probability, tako
up hie reaidence in Chicago, whore ho
can have the assurance that ho may
shoot as many men nnho pleases with
eutire immunity from punishment.
If ho cannot o&capo a Chicago jury,
though ho will scarcely fail to do this
at any time, the pardon system has
been so perfected as always to como
to bis relief.—Chicago Times.
Carpet Baggers in Congress must
