In retiring*from the conduct and ownership of the ExiRTKS8, it is a gratification to know that it passes into handa which in addition to the intellectual and moral strength brought to bear upon it, will impart to it that physical energy of pecuniary means, so necessary for the successful prosecution of the business.— "We have sold the whole establishment to R.

We suspect that when thp account ctmesto be settleu, 11 will be found that Indiana has turned out nearly head for head with last year, and a much better fattrd 1 og. The yield of meat, we have no doubt, will be larger than last year, the difference in number,being more than compensated by the weight- This is our guess, and we find it concurred in by a good many others.— Another influence that may depress the prices is the extravagant mark at which last year's meat is held. People won't use bacon wlicu tliey have to pay so much for it. They will use fi-h ,or fresh meat, or go without meat first, We believe the bacon now in market has got about to the general consumption limit or beyond it. Holders in the East will find it trou'blesome disposing1 of heavy stocks at the present extravagant prices, and holding on iVa ticklish b'usine*s with a new crop coming in, and that under the pressure of the finest corn crop ever known.'• 'J'''*'*••• 'f

flic .Japanese.

Captain Adams, of the U. S. Navy, who recently returned with tho Japanese treaty, found the Japanese officials extrcmlv courteous and friendly and the people social and communicative. Their former distrust and jealousy seemed greatly diminished. There was sonic difficulty in procuring the signature of the Emperor to the treaty, as it was the custom for the supreme council to act in his stead. But the difficulty was overcome, and the treaty with the United States is the first that has ever received the signature of a Japanese Emperor. The privileges of trade secured are more liberal and advantageous than have been secured by any other nation that has obtained access to this isolated people.•»(.

The Japanese officials made many inquiries after Commodore

messages of remembrance. The circular railroad and lacoiijofciv'e lie took out had been put up in Yedo, and the Japanese could now manage them very well, the locomotive making the trips every day. They had also the lifeboat in the water with a special cr?w detailed for her. The magnetic telegraph, however, was rather too difficult for them, and they had not succeeded in getting it to work properly. During the visit of Com. Perry's squadron thoy took measurements of the storeship South arnpton, and they had a vessel of the same model and dimensions nearly ready for launching. The old Japanese law restricting the size and model of their junks lui's recently been abrogated, and the Government is now ambitious to possess a naval squadron similar to ours. From this fact it will be seen how rap id is th« growth of new ideas in this secluded nation, and what vast changes must necessarily result from their further intercourse with Americans. -l~

There is a fine pasture all over the country, now, and the price of butter ought to be down to a shilling a pouud. Why isn't it? Because the women aud girls don't know how to make it. For twenty years past the girls' butter making education kas been sadly neglected.—. They can play the piano, but they cannot churn: cau dance, but can't skim the milk can talk a little French, but don't know how to work out the buttermilk.

The Rev. John C. McCabe, chairman of the committee who waited on the President a few days ago, said in his eloquent and touching address to the Executive^ 1 "We appear before you, sir, as the representative of a sorrowing, suffering, dis-ease-stricken people. As chairman of that committee, I am somewhat anticipated in my remarks by the appalling facts which must each day reach the ears of vour Ex-

borne upon the wings of the

hope they will

telegraph or through the medium of the public prints—and yet, sir, startling and terrible as are each days reports from Norfolk and Portsmouth of the progress of the yellow fever thtre, they fall far and fearfully short of the dreadful r« ality. Norfolk and Portsmouth are now, sir, but little more than vast charnel houses, and their unburried dead are. perchance, at this moment, attracting the keen scent of the ravening vultures. Thousands of the people of those devoted cities have tied panic stricken,-—and, would to God, the rest had flotrn. Had it been so we would hate been spared the recital of this talfe of woe, and your Excellency the pain of listening to a story whose bui then is desolation and death.

Mr. President,physician^ are falling at their posts, nurses are dying at bedsides— and ministers of the Cross of Christ, as they stand at the couches of the sick and dying, are struck down iods .teoiU "Dumb and shivering."

'•Business is almost entirely suspended in both cities. The city of Norlulk has but a nominal government,, and nearly every private dwelling is converted into a mort house, and from almost every chamber comes out a wail—for death is there. The remaining population of these seemjngly doomed cities, are too few to give efficient help to the sick and the suffering, and ere long, unless God stay the destroyer, and the strong arm of man in power be stretched forth in their behalf, the total depopulation of those places by death, must be the result, and the Genius ot Desolation will sit in ghastly and gloomy triumph, sole master of their ports nnd

Washington deposited his lust ballot, in the last year of his life, he was questioned by persons around the polls in regard to the clmr-icter of his vote. "Gentlemen." replied the great Patriot, "I vote for principles, not men." His principles were well and widely known, an 1 who could doubt that he supported that candidate whose sentiments accorded the most nearly with his own? ,0

This, in time, will lead to broken shins and broken hearts. The former will belong to the young man himself, the: latter to his parents. To do a person good, money should be earned.

Messrs. Editors:—As the public is doubtless interested in the fact, it is proper for me to State that the following Banks have organized under the "amended Free Bank Law," to-wit: The Central Bank and the Farmers' and Mechanics' Bank of this city, and also the Prairie City Bank of Terre- Haute. These Bunks have deposited securities in this office, which would pay ingohT at least one dollar and ten cents for every dollar issued by said Banks consequently the paper of these Banks is as safe as gold could be, and perhaps, more convenient for commercial purposes.
