Governor Reeder'i Removal. We most full j concur with many of our exchanges in their regrets at the remoTal of Gor. Reeder at this particular juncture. "We append the opinions of a few, as follows: We infer thai Got. R. has failed to satisfactorily explain the speculations in Indian lands in which he was charged to have ben engaged. We exceedingly regret that he should hare been led to commit any act which made his remOTal necessary, for we have admired his manly performance of difficult duties, and his firmness in resisting the unlawful proceedings in Kansas. Ilia successor is a good man. Det. Free Press. Upon confirmation of the remoral and the appointment of Mr. Dawson of Pennsylvania, the Laporte Times says; 'This matter does not surprise us. and yet we cannot help thinking that there are but few men who would have dischar ged the onerous dutie sof governor of Kansis better than has Governor Reeder. The Administration has its reasons for the change, but we are very much disposed to doubt their justice and their wisdom." Other exchanges contain corroborating statements that the remoral created considerable excitement a: Washington, and it waa believed there a few days ago that Mr. Dawson will not accept the appointment, in which eTent it will be giren to a southerner. The N. Y. Journal of Commerce of the 31st ult. contained a leader condemning the removal of Governor Reeder as an mfcrtunate step of the administration in the present condition of Kansas affWirs, as it will furnish unprincipled fanatics means to fan the flames of sectional discord. Milton Gbeco of the New Albany Tri bune was one of the committee on resolutions at the late fusion convention at Indianapolis, and was also appointed one of the State Central Committee for the present year; but the Indianapolis Journal says "it is becoming almost every day more apparent that the editor of the Tribune has little or no sympathy with the great Republican movement of the people inaugurated last year." The Slavery Question Letter from Dr. Brttkenriike to It. Sumner. Ia our next issue we will give our readers an able and interesting letter from Rev. K. J. Breckenridge, to Senator Sumner, in reply to an address of the latter vpon slavery, delivered in the city of N. York a few weeks since. When two such giant minds engage in the discussion of a question which appears to so deeply interest the public mind, we should probably neglect our duty in refusing, our readers the advantages of the light their eminent qualifications enable them to impart. In speaking of this letter in advance, we will adopt the language and sentiments of the Evansville Journal, one of the ablest and most influential Fusion papers in the State. It saya "we publish this letter, not only on account of its marked ability and interest, and the high reputation of its author, but because we deem it highly important that reflecting men of all sections of the country, especially of the north, should have an op portunity of learning how this question is regarded by the best and most cultivated, anJ most conscientious people of the south. Rev. Dr. Breckenridge has long been known in both sections of the coun try, as an able, zealous and eloquent cler gyrr.en, and his views of this great quts tion cannot fail to be read with the deep est interest. We commend the sentiments set forth in the letter to the careful perusil of ev ery politician, and especially those who are abeut to choose the direction iu which to cast their influence in future, with some one of the various organizations that are now in process of incubation in the north. It is a matter of no common concern to see two such miods arrayed against each other in a purely intellectual contest, in the discussion of a subject upon which they both conscientiously differ, and at the same time one of such vast moment to the great mass of mankind. The question of negro slavery, and the issues made upon it between, the north and the south in relation to our territo rial settlements, cannot longer be viewed except with the utmost seriousness and alarm. The north and south will sooner or later be called upon to adjust this great moral issue, and in view of such a crisis, we most earnestly conjure our brethren of the north to let their councils be gov erned by a sound, discriminating and charitable judgment, and not by the wild fanatical zeal that is at present manifesting itself in many northern localities. We do not believe that there it any general disposition on tbe part of the north to interfere with slavery as it exists in the seither n States, but the question may be gravely asked to what does all such arguments endlog'caa those em

ployed by Mr. Sumner tod his associates tend? And such interference as may be inferred from Mr. Sumner proposed warfare upon slavery "without truce or compromise would undoubtedly provoke and would probably justify such an armed resistance as Dr. B. affirms the south would offer. But the exclusion of Slavery from the Territories and the restoration of the Missouri Compromise, would not warrant any such resistance, nor does the purpose to effect these objects warrant such threats of resistence to which the south constantly and offensively resorts. The speech of Senator Sumner, and the letter in reply, by Dr. Breckenridge are both masterly emanations from gigantic minds, and the chief faults seem to be, that each has written and spoken as if he represented antagonistic powers, instead of integral parts of a great and free nation." Why is It! Shortly after the know nothing Convention which met at Indianapolis on the 13th ult, it was currently reported by some means or other, that a nigger" occupied a position on the platform, near the president of the convention though it was not slated how long he remained there. Atthe bare announcement, however, the know nothing papers over the State readily took fire, nnd fairly blazed with indignation. Now why is it that with their avowed partiality for the darkey, they become so deeply incensed when accused of being in their company. There are darkies in Indiana just as good as Fred. Douglass, and the times that he has associated with his white brethren upon the stand, are without number, and are still multiplying. We don't care anything about it, only it would look a little more consistent, if in the absence of crpekodile tears they would practice what they preach. We do sincerely hope however, that there has been no mistake about this, and that the president of the convention bar been taken for a white man.

Cassius M. Clay and Riv. John G. Fee made abolition speeches in Rockcastle county, Ky., on the 21st, and were not disturbed. The Washington correspondent of the New York Courier and Enquirer states that the Pretidenl and the Secretary of the Interior have decided against the validity of Gov. Reeder s proposed purchase of Kansas lands, and the contracts have accordingly been cancelled. Geneual Good Health. We learn by our exchanges from all parts of this State, and from the west and nort west cenerally, that the general health of the coun try was never better than at present. i 1 Boone County Ledqeb, is the title of a very neat and respectable paper just commenced at Lebanon, Boone county in this State, by Messrs Oden & Thomson. Monopoly in Produce. There seems to be but little doubt, that the extraordinary prices which our people wer compelled to pay for all the more important articles of sustenance, du ring the last year, were partly attributa ble to speculative combinations enter ed into by the larger produce dealers. Even latterly attempts have been made by Eastern capitalists and speculators, to arrest supplies on their way to market, with an evident intention on the part of these mercantile conspirators, to ease themselves, gradually, from sustain ing any very great pecuniary loss. But though, in a time of scarcity, unscrupulous capitalists may obtain almost perfect control over the limited products of the farm, the meadow, and the dairy, they cannot long maintain speculative prices when granaries are full to repletion, and farmers are anxious to realize the reward of their toil. At such periods prices recede to their appropriate level, and are only subject to those natural fluctuations which are incident to a lighter or heavier demand. The pernicious effects of such combinations, which tend to increase the price of foodcombinations which can only act effectually in years of srarcity, cannot be estimated. The oppression produced by such obstructions to the natu ral current of business, obtrudes itself upon every poor nun's necessities, and becomes painfully disastrous in particular instances, as well as injurious in its general effects. It is wealth seizing the occasion to place additional burthens upon poverty, the result of which is to force poverty into a bitter antagonism to wealth. These monopolies have shown themselves more during the past year, perhaps, than ever before, and simply for the reason that the aggregate productions of last season were within the compass and control of the speculative capital of the country, and capitalists com bined to prevent so large a portion coming forward at one time as to produce a redundancy in the market, b) arresting it in transitu. Our readers wilt recollect that the immense surplus of wheat exported last fall from Canada to the Unit ml States, remained in the store houses of Buffalo and Oswego, and other border points, and waa let on to New York the past spring and present summer, in a manner and in quantities especially adapted to the speculative demand. .The present quotations in the New York market, are significant of the fact tbat a commanding combination of millers and speculators still continue to rule the market. The best brands of flour were quoted on the 24th of Jnly as follows: ' Indiana and Upper Lake, and common to good Ohio, at $10 75; and 12 50 for extra Genetsee. . From the South, Alexandria and Georg

town brands, quoted at $10 5Qall,50, ckitfly on t -peculation. Wheat quotations of the same dale as follows: Grain, A better demand for Wheat, and good lots command more money, the arrivals are fair; sates of 3,500 bushels fair to good Red Southern, at $1 75a 1 80 and 500 bushels fair white do. at 61 90. Let every reflecting producer compare these quotations with those in the markets from whence the flour and wheat were shipped, and in the localities where they wer produced, and no further argument will be required to show the existence of this combined monopoly. The New York Courier and Enquirer, of the 25th says: The two main supports of life, bread and meat, have been selling at fabulous prices such prices as we trust never to hear of again. This able commercial sheet is endeavoring to open the eyes of the farmer nnd the Western produce dealers, the first handlers of the crops, to their true interests upon this subject, and suggests the only remedy that seems at all practicable to us, and that is that every farmer in the country should take one or more good commercial newspaper, and keep posted as well to prospects as to prices, and not suffer themselves to be imposed upon by these soulless monied combinations. Evanarille Journal.

From theN. O. Picayune of July. THE REVOLUTION IN MEXICO. By the arrival of the steamship Nautilus from Brazos Santiago, we have received the Brownsville Flag of the 10th inst. from which we gather the following intelligence: As to the progress of the revolution in Northern Mexico, the Flag says: Though no actual fighting has yet occurred between the insurgents and the Government troop: on this frontier, the two parties are assuming positions which will render such a result inevitable ere the lapse of many days. By the arrival from Monterey of a gentleman of undoubted veracity, we learn that the insurgents under the leadership of the intrepid Vidauri, are marching upon Malnrnoras in strength, numbering some twenty-five hundred men, composed of artillery, cav. airy and infantry. He represents them as well armed and equipped provided with everything requisite lor a regular campaign. The second in command is Carvajal, whose advanced guard he passed nt Las Cuevas, between Camargo and Reynoso. The latter town is the first one on the river above Matamoras, some sixty miles distant. There, we presume, the first battle will be fought, as the government troops nre said to have fallen back from Camargo upon Reynoso, on account of its strong natural position, which they are. still further strengthening by fortifications. In Reynoso there are said to be some six hundred regular troops, who are

doubtless at this hour menaced by Carva- The Kansas Herald relates the following jal's command of a thousand men. I 0( Governor Reeder: To reinforce the garrison at Reynosa, On the occasion, a gen tltman approachGeneral Woll has left Matamoras at the fd Gov.

men suiucieni ior garrison uuiy; wiuie Vidauri is marching with more than thrice the number of Liberators Irom Monterev to the aid of Carvajal. The government troops are represented as beme discon certed and reluctant driven forward by the bayonet while the insurgents are fired with the greatest enthusiasm. Thus matters stand at tho time of our going to press. Doubtless before our next issue a bloody and decisive battle will have taken place. If the insurgents prove victorious, then the existing government will have but one other foothold on this frontier Matamoras will alone remain, and that place will not be able to hold out many weeks. While, on the other hand, should the Government win, the hunted liberals need expect no quarter from their infuriated enemy. Unfortunately the narrow river that divides us offers too great an inducement to cross on neutral ground when dangar presses closely. It is evident, however, that never before had the insurgents so great a promise of success. More than half the country is already in their hands. We are credibly informed that the insurgents of this frontier are in constant communication with those of the South that a post of couriers have been established from Camargo to Acapulco, traveling the whole distance over revolted territory. Injustice to Publishers. Mr. Joseph Medill, whose removal to Chicago, and connection with the Chicago Tribune, we have noticed, on leaving the Cleveland Leader wrote a long and able valedictory, from which at the time we clipped .the following pertinent remarks: The result of my observations enable me to state, as a fact, that publishers of newspapers are more poorly rewarded than any other class of men in the United Slates who invest an equal amount of la bor, capita and thought. They are expected to do more service for less pay, to stand rhore sponging and "dead-heading," to puff und defend more people, and sorts of people, without fee or hope of reward, than any other class. They credit wider and longer; get oftener cheated; suffer more pecuniary loss; and are oftener the victims of misplaced confidence, than any other calling in the community. People pay a printer's bill more reluctantly. than any other. It goes harder with them to expend a dollar on a valuable newspaper than ten on a useless gew-gaw, yet everybody avails himself of the services of the editor's and printer's !L H r ' i i . tun. nun inauT luuicssionai ann noiiii cat reputations and fortunes have been t created and sustained by the friendly, though unrequitted, pen of the editor? How many embryo towns and cities have been brought into notice, and puffed into prosperity by the press? How many railroads, now in succesful operation, would have foundered but for the assistance of the 'lever that moves the world.' In short, what branch of American industry or activity, has not been promoted, stimulated and defended by the press? And who has tendered it more than a miserable pittance for its mighty service? The bazaars of fashion and ' folly, the hauntg of appetite and dissipation, are thronged with tm eager crowd bearing'

gold in their palms, end the commodities there vended are sold at enormous profits, though intrinsically worthless, and paid for with scrupulous punctuality; while the counting room of the newspaper is the seat of jewing, cheapening, trade,"orders and pennies. It is made a point of honor to liquidate a grog bill, but not of dishonor to repudiate a printer's bill," Operations Suspended. A rumor prevailed in town yesterday, that tko operations on the Ohio and Mississippi Railroad were to be suspended for the present; end, while the cause could .eadily be guessed, there were many anxious inquiries about the subject. We cannot say that w are surprised at this suspension. From the continued lawless, mobocratic opposition made to tho running operations of the road, we do not see how its managers could have, in justice to the public and themselves, continued their trains. This step will occasion great tempornry inconvenience to the business public, as well as the traveling community; but blame cannot be attached to the managers of the rorui. The responsibility, the detriment to business, and the inconvenience to travelers, must rest alone upon those who hart stirred trr) and kept up the mob spirit along the line. Th holders and managers of the road h.aje usedteverr exertion in their po'ver, to allay the turbulent and dissatisfied parties along the road, hut to no avail. We have no means of knowing how long this suspension will continue, but trust it may be of short duration. T'zncennes Gazette.

As Inchediele. but True Story. During th freshet a little more than a month since, a cow belonging to Adam Carson, near this town, was carried into the flame of Messrs. Austin's Oil Mill. She was missed ou the day of her disappearance, nnd thorough search wns made for heron that and several subsequent clays, without success.- She had never been known to stay away, wasyoung au I fat. and the conclusion was that she had fallen into the hnds of a drover. The mill was not running. A day or two since it was en tered to make some repairs. The cow was found-til ut up in the flume, wasted almost to a shadow, with scarce strength to move her body, still alive. Nourishment was given her, a little at a time, nnd she seems now in o fair way to recover. She had been there, as there is every reason to believe, just thirty days; as the flood had, at that time, burst into arid injured the mill, and she had been lost that length of lime. It seems incredible, but all the facts inJicate that she had survivtd thirty days, destitute of both water and food. Akron Ohio) Beacon, Gov. Reeder aso the Missoihans. would eather ud a company of men. ten thousand, if neccc&sary, and search every a part of the Territory, if need he, to find 1 an-Tne-uovernor terr cur dially thanked his informant for tho intel ligence. and remarked: Tell your friend that whether he comrs at the head of ten hundred or ten thousand men it will make no difference; 1 shall never bo mobbed; and your friend, if ho make a demonstration in that direction, may n-st assured that his minutes are numbered, for I will put a ball through his head, though I know I shall be cut into inch piece ten minutes afterwards. I shall pursue ray legitimate business uninterrupted, else the invader of my rights shall pay the forfeit." ---<>--- The Mormons Defying Government. Late News from Utah confirms the report of the open defiance of United Slates authority by the Mormons. A correspondent of the St. Louis News writing from Omaha, order date of July 1st after conversing with all the mail train company, which had just arrived from Salt Lake says: The news from Salt Lake is of a very interesting character, as there is every prospect of a difficulty between the Mormons and the U. S. Government. They openly defy the government; do not live under the glorious stars and stripes of the country, but have a flag of their own, representing a bee-hive and embellished wfth portraits of Brigham Young Joe Smith and other Mormon dignitaries. They have every man drilled once a week, who is able to bear arms. They have a factory of their own manufacture Colt's celebrated revolvers, and every soldier has from one to three, and is bound to obey Brigham Young implicitly in everything. He has sent from 150 to 500 missionaries out among the Sioux, and they are exerting all their influence to bring on hostilities between them and the United States Government. This is the opinion of Dr. Garlanhurst, the Indian Agent at this point. ---<>--- The 'large Cmuriiy. belonging to J. Farnsworth, Jr., on Elm street, was destroyed by fire last night about 1 o'clock. The large brick machine and finishing shop on Ohio street, in front of the foundry, was uninjured,.'' Mr. F's loss is severe, not so much in the value of a few paterns. flasks, and tho buildings consumed. as will be the detention in business until the foundary budding is replaced. There was no insurance. The fire is supposed to bava been too woik of an incendiary, .., j Mr. Farnsworth expects to be melting iron, again in a xvtt or ten days. On the 17th day of July, 1850, Farnsworth was buint outpn Ohio street, above his present location .Ten days he consumed in negotiating for a new location; and in the next, mouth, August, he was melting iron iu?n entirely new establishment. Such energy is bound to overcome all obstacles. Madisan Courier.

This wheat was so very good that .it would hava passed readily for white Genese . The parties for whom Mr. 3uell sold, state that there is not much wheat of this grde in Illinois. The price paid by city millers for so large a quantity, indicates that they have confidence in the market, and that the decline is not to be so rapid as we hare supposed. Rochester Union. - tmm .

Would it not be more proper to say "corn is king?" The cultivation of cotton is dependent, in a great measure, upon that of the other three staples enumerated cotton could not be produced to any advantage without the wheat, corn and hay. The Wheat Crop. The Chicago Tribune gives the most plnusiblo estimate of the wheat crop we have yet seen. It sets down Ohio at twenty-two million of bushels; Illinois, eighteen millions; Wisconsin ten millions, and Michigan eight millions. Pennsylvania will probably yield twenty-five millions. The yield of wheat in Indiana, accor-, ding to the census of 1850, was 6.457.965. The estimate, by thos best qualified to make one, of the yield of the barvest of 1655, in this State, is not less than thirteen millions of bushels. Yellow Birds akd the Weevil. The Binghampton Republican says that a far mer in that vicinity, who supposed that yellow birds destroy the wheat, commenced shooting them, and out of curiosity opened the crop of one of them. He lound that instead of eating the wheat, the birds destroyed the weevil. He discovered as mny as two hundred weevil in the crop, and but four grains of wheat, which the weevil had in them. The next time a lazy lubber, having nothing to do but carry all day a gun on his shoulder, roams through the fields or woods, we hope that he will direct the instrument of death at some useless or mischievous object his own had, if nothing more destructive presents itself and not the yellow bird, or any other little songsters making the air vocal with' their music. .
