(pj-e are credibly informed that Stephen Nutt, of Jackson township, raised from one bushel and three pecks cf seed, one hundred and forty bushels of clean Buckwheat; or two and a half bushels to the quart. lie also raised a Radish twenty inches in length, and weighing 14 lbs; also, a Turnip twenty-five- inches in circumference. T11 e heavy crops of all kinds, is in a great measure attributable, to the fact that every week, almost, Bob Gibson sends us the aames cf some ofl the industrious, enterprising citizens, ot that township as subscribers to the Chieftain; Bob, as well as oarselves, are strongly inclined to think, that, had Nutt, (who, it appears, is hard to track ia the way of big crops,) been a subscriber to the paper, his crops would have been at least one third larger; but after all, we guess Nutt has hulled out mora Backwheat in proportion to seed, than is now on record. May he never meat with worse luck. Hurrah for Jackson. iKr Who w ill present us with a Turkey for Thanksgiving day? .Don't all speak at once.

') t 1 ' i . 1 u 1 The it n t ret v'!. 1 rep--' 1 depradatlors cf a 1 crdi cf Gray an 1 Prcirie Wolves, infesting Jackson and Union Townships, the past summer, has forced the citizens cf these townships to appeal to their patriotic fellow-citizens, of this, and the surrounding counties, to arm, equip, and volunteer their services, and marshall themselves in battle array, and if need be, prepare themselves a3 a sacrice upon the altar cf our bleeding country. Utter extermination to the ruthless rascals, must be the war cry; and death or victory, the watchword! So arouse fellow-citizens'! Up! in freedoms manly part, from gray beard old to fiery youth, for the piteous cries cf bleeding,. dying innocence is borne upon the breeze, and our ears are continually harrassed with the nightly revel, and demoniac yells of the blood-thirsty and remorseless enemy. Bring on your dogs, pitchforks, sharp sticks, and every other warlike missive that man hath devised, and meet us on FRIDAY, December Cth, and long shall the glorious deeds cf that day, be remembered in song and story. Large herds of Deer range upon the ground to be driven over,- and we say, in confidence, that. but little less than ONE HUNDRED can be driven in. The following are the order of arrangements, and to render the drive successful, a strict obedience to them, i3 essenjtial: All the lines will be organized at pre cisely 9 o'clock, under the following or(Jer: North Line commences at the mouth of Kean'a Creek, following the creek, east, to where it will intersect the East line; Marshals, west end, J. C. Hughes, center, Loran Cutler, east end, Fred. Burgct, West Line commences at the mouth of Keans' Creek, following the Tippecanoe river, south, to the Monticello Ford; Marshals, north end John Reynolds, center, Moses Sheets, south end, Benj. Reynolds. South Line, commences at the Ford, thence east on the Lcgansport road to where it will inter sect the east line; Marshals, west end, Wrn. Wright, center, Jchn Glassford,east end Solomon M'Cully. East Line, a direct line from the Logansport road, north, by the Alkire school house, to where it will intersect the north line st the head of Keans' creek; Marshals, south end, Robert Gibson, center, John Tamm north end, Jchn Steel. At the sound cf the trumpets, carried by the Marshals, the lines will proceed slowly, beating up thoroughly, to the center, which is one mile north-east of the residence of Wra. Cornell, Esq., known as the Black Blid Grove. When within 400 hundred yards of the center, the lines, at the command of the Marshals, will halt, at which time the dogs will be unloosed; prior to this lime, they must be kept tied, securely, by their owners. No guns must be fired after the halt has been raade, but by the marksman, upon the scaffold, selected by the Marshals. All game killed within the circuit of the drive, to be brought to the center, under the direction of the Marshals and sold to highest bidder, by the Grand Marshal, the proceeds of which will be appropriated to any benevolent purposethe Marsh alls may assten. Extreme .caution in the use of the guns is necessary, and we t'-zzc: . 1 hoe tart no man will get mere tlr 'i ' . T srtc tlio occasion.

Late arrivals from Jacknell report a conspiracy against the Government, but it was detected ar.d two men have been shot. Eight more were condemned to death, and seme two or three hundred imprisoned to await trial. It is positively stated that Kossuth and other Hungarian Exiles at Ken ay, have received permission to retire from the Ottoman Empire and will at once proceed to the United States, with a view to a per manent settlement. The Porte had, it is also said, publish ed a decree permitting all foreigners in his service, no matter what their creed. A number of Refugees who had hereto fore adopted the Musselman faith are thus enabled to return to Christianity, and Gen. Bern is said to be foremost in the list. - COMMERCIAL.
