In such times as these, capitalists will not buy wheat to keep in store, except it be nt exceedingly late An matter of economy, then, the farmer should sell his grain it once, and at present prices, rather than run the risk of a futuro market. But thero is another consideration which far transcends this in magnjtnde and portance. 'Unless farmers sell their grain and pay their debts, they are, to nll inteuts and purposes, bankrupt, and their hooor and integrity is gonc. Common jostico bonor demand that they should pursue course.

And in reality, we do believe that the "armers, as 1 class, bave buck of responsibility of the present financial crisis. to bear upon their own shoulders."

IE a merchant is so unfortunate as to Inck the ability to meet all his obligations, ho looked upon as a ruined man.

He most sign his assets for the benefits of his creditors. On the contrary, a farmer with his barns full of grain, may put off the payment his boneat debta, year after year, nad himself auder nothing by it. Is this morelhonest, right, and just? Both economy and honor call upon the farmer to sell bis grain, nad pay his debte. If he refases it, be is no more or less than a dishonest in2n. He is holding 'and claiming as his own, what belongs to another.

Watch their meetings and you will find the, activo -the men. who pipe-lag; pull wires, and who.

do all the fuglion, are the office boldera, and it is amusing to see with what ferocity they jump upon any one who honestly endeavors to give fair esprcesion to his opinione. The President, in his letter to the Now Haven memorinlists, wonders that any one could over bare donbted that sinvery existed in the Territories under the Constitution. In accordance with this riew, bogus Democrntic meeting at Edwardseille the other day, Dr. HorE oFered in substance, that citizens of elate Stntes had as much right to carry their slaves into Territorica and hold them there, as citizens of free States had to take their this was no more than what BUCnANAS hnd said, but not half so plainly, and it too much for the delicate stomachs of the offco holders at that meeting. It was roted down in high.

dudgeon, and its nuthor was looked upon somewhst as a Bengal tiger would have been if one bad suddenly jumped into their midst. Dr. IlorE only preached the docfrines of the modern progressive democrney, but be lives in free State, tho sensibilities of whose citizens would be shocked by such an open declarntion of the party aims at. He WAG therefore snubbed, but he bad bie rerenga when they came to Juse with the Know- Nothings. Dr.

ENGLISE was anzions to bave the mecting called a "peoples' meeting." Dr. HOPE wanted it either democratio or nothing. He charged their complicity upon them, and having driven them to the point of claiming the meeting as a democritia one, the KoowNothings bolted in disgust, and the fusion was prevented. These bogus Democrats isha climed to be so pare they would not fuse, and charged the Republican party with fusion ae a crime, were now reduced to the worst kind of fusion- fusion with the most intolerant and proseriptire of all the KnoirNothings, the pro-slavery section. Now, let Escutel go.

round among his dear foreign bora friends and esplain to them why be was anxious to put four proscriptire pro-slarery Know Nothings ou the Democratic. county ticket -why he was anxious to fuse with men who cherish tha beauties of slave lubor and would pat it in competition with free white labor.

The proceedings of the Republican meeting at Edwardaville, on Thursday last, were received in thin city with much plesaure, and the nominations made there meet with entire approval. It is one of the strongest tickets presented the people of Madison County for their approval, and will, succeed by a triumphant majority. Since the last -election the Republican party of: Madison county have receired immense acaccessions from all parties, and now stande numerically far ahead. Few proceedings of a political character have given more pleasure than the manly stand in favor freedom mado by J. GILLESPIE.

Without committing himself to party, he. boldly avowed all his upon convictions the to slavery be with us, question, and he that in would future, act with that party which entertained opinions similar to his own. This was ople what bie friends expected of him. He arowed him. selt in favor of compromises, and denounced DoUGLAs for.
