Eyery one knows that the red men are great orators, fond of the sublime and terrible, "“possessing great aptitude in illustrating their meaning by similitudes from the various objects of nature. They are as fond of a talk as members of Congress, but thej* talk with more pith and point, and execute or atorical tlourishes with more dignity and grace. Red Jacket, the famous Indian Chief, whose tongue and tomahawk once kept the Xorth western frontier in a con tinual state ot terror, was a Patrick Henry in eloquence, and could sway the souls of his braves with his persuasive breath as the tempest heaves the waves of the deep. There is something in the simplicity, con ciseness and comprehensiveness of Indian speech-making that commands our respect After listening to the verbose and vapid harangues of effeminate, selfish, and diso lute pale faces in Congress, it is refreshing to hear the natural voices and ideas of these children ot the woods, these men of vigorous bodies and unsophisticated souls, who say ■what they have to say in just such words and only so many of them, as are necessary to express their meaning. We recommend the two minute speeches of these Pawnee, Ponca and Pottawatomie orators as models for Congressional imitation. Each of these Pawnees, Poncas and Pottawotomies manages, without unneces sary expenditure of gas, to say what he wants, and that want is—Money. They say they are very poor, and that their “Graudfatliei*,” as they call him—old Mr. Buchanan—is very rich. They are glad to see him living in a splendid house, and happy to find that he is not poor like them. They manage in a short space to say many agreeable things to Mr. Buchanan and the white race. One orator tells “Old^Buck,” “I think you are like the Great "Spirit,” and they alMSeem to agree that “a white man can do anything and make anything.” The manly manner in which these savage orators admit that ■white is a better color than red, an d submit to it without grumbling, because God willed it so, raises our respect for them, and ought to bring a blush to the cheek of the despicable wretches in this country whose whole business in life is to make a much inferior race to the Indian, envy and hate white people. We have no doubt that these sensible savages, in the hunting grounds, beyond the grave, will become white men, for they deserve it. The following is the best speech made in tho interview with the President. The speaker was Wah-gae-ash-pi, (the whip,) a hard looking old Ponca, who wears a pair of horns on his hair dress. If any white man can present “the points” bettfer than the Ponca, or crack a whip with more emphasis on the coal question, he had bet ter try it: “My Grandfather: I call you grandfather for no other reason than this: God made me of one color and you of another; but God was partial to you, and made you of a bet ter color. You came into existence, and so did I. It was the will of the Great Spirit that we both came into existence. We have never had a chance to see our Grandfather until this time, and I am very glad you asked me to visit you. It was the will of the Great Spirit that made you more powerful than me; it was the will of the Great Spirit that you should take this land from us—this land that you stand on to-day belongs to me. Y"ou are a man. my Grandfather, and so am I. Every thing that you have made. Grandfather, is worthy of attention—is worthy of look ing at. There is one thing that attracts the eye more than anything else, and I hope you will give me plenty of it—money! We want money my Grandfather. With it we can get anything we want. We do not want goods but if you give us money, we can buy what we please, and it lasts longer. My Grandfather, we want all the tools of the white man. We want the blacksmiths, the farmers, the millers, &c., to live with us, and hope you will open your hearts to us to-day. My Father, I do not speak from the end of my tongue, it comes from the bottom of my heart, and I hope that what you say will come from the bottom of your heart.” The President’s reply was a very good specimen of imitation Indian, and con tained much excellent adv : ce. He told them they had become poor because they had devoted themselves to the chase and to war, and, if courtesy hau permitted, he might have added, firewater. The pale faces have destroyed more Indians with New England rum than tomahawk, bull«t and plague. If these respectable savages will go home, work hard, and hang every low white man who comes among them peddling whiskey, they will stand some chance of preserving the remnant of their race from annihilation.—■Dispatch. Nicholas Longworth, the Cincinnati millionaire best known for his native-Amer- ican wines, celebrated the fiftieth anniver sary of his marriage on Christmas eve by a splendid golden wedding, at which every person who officiated at his marriage was present save one.

Journal of Commerce, Jr., Jan. 15. Law film. Many persons appear to suppose that the down' ward tendency in the prices ot nearly every article of produce and merchandise is owing entirely to the financial revulsion, and that we insy therefore look for a return to the old rates as soon as tho money market becomes a little more settled. A ▼ery little examination will show the fallacy of this theory, as we can trace the rise in the market value of piodace in nearly every case to something be sides a plethora of money, and can find the causes of tbe decline farther back than fbe- panic which was first felt after the beginning ofautumn. Itis true that the change has been more rapid, and, in most cases, more radical, in consequence of the re vulsion, but the causes were at wotk long before the excitement in the money market was first chronicled. Take the article efsugar as an illus tration. Owing to several successive failures in the Louisiana crop, the imported article had the monopoly of the market, and tlie consumption, stimulated by the previous low prices, gained upon the production and rapidly reduced the stock. Speculation stepped in, and added its influence to increase the apparent scarcity, by withdrawing a portion of the supply from the market. The result was that the price of good Cuba sugar slowly ad vanced from tonrand a half to five cents, atwhich rate the consumption bad been enormous, to ten and a half to eleven and a half, where it was nomi nally maintained for several months. We caution our readers against relying upon this as a price to he supported iu the face of the bel ter crop promised from Louisiana; and it is ap parent to all disinterested observers that this value must have declined even if there had been no severe pressure in the money market. The frost which has again cut off twenty or twenty-five per cent, of the domestic production might have saved a portion of the fall, but nothing could have main tained the old rates, rates, even though the crop of Louisiana had again failed. As it is the domestic yield for the current year is set down at from two hundred and twenty-five thousand to two hundred and sixty thousand hogsheads, and now that wo have only begun to receive the new sugar, tho price of choice Cuba has fallen from eleven and a half, the highest rate of the last year, to seven and a fourth, the current price iu this market yesterday. The same thing will hold true of breadstuff's. The successive failure of the crops throughout most of Europe, gave an unusual export demand in this c mntry, at a period when, from various causes, the home production had been somewhat reduced; ana the war in South-eastern Europe created a largo consumption at all Mediterranean ports, while it shut up tho sources of supply from coun tries bordering on the Black Sea. Under this state of things, common State flour, the standard for export, although below the grade most used for home consumption, sold in this mar ket as far back as May, 1855, at ten dollars and fifty cents per barrel, and choice family grades were taken at wholesale as high as thirteen dollars. Since that date, and especially duriqg the last year, Europe has been recovering from its depend ence, the crops aboard havo improved, those who were buyers have now some surpuls to spare, new sources of supply have been opened, and produc tion stimulated by the high rates. In the face of this^lecrcased demand front this country, the crops have been abundant’ here, leaving us a large sur plus to export. These causes must have led to lower prices had there been no financial earthquako to expedite the leveling process. Europe cauuut be wholly independent of this country in this respect, and the West Indies, South America, and Australia, must each take a portion of our abund ance; but the partial demaud to which the trade is likely to be confined must prevent our dictating prices, and we must now sell at competing rates instead ofcontroling the market. The producers who saw this matter in the light in which it was presented iast summer aud foil, aud took tho earliest opportunity to dispose of the product of their harvest, have no occasion now to censure those who gave them such advices, although it might have been unpalatable at the time. The superfine State flour which less than three years ago, ruled for a little while at ten dallars and fifty cents per barrel, can now be replaced of freshly ground wheat in equal quality at four dollars and thirty cents per barrel, while very choice Michigan, Indiana, aud Ohio double extra brands can be bought at wholesale for six dollars and fifty cents a seven dollars per barrel. We unght carry the illustration much farther if there were any occasion for additional proof, but what lias been said may be sufficient to show that prices must have declined, had there been no dis- astrious crisis in financial affairs. The fall might have been more gra lual, but the reaction was cer tain. Cotton has suffered more than any other ar ticle of produce considering the magnitude of the i ,t‘rests involved, but this was predicted, long be fore the panic in Wall street. The fall in prices in this staple within a few months up to the first week in January, 1858, was nearly fifty percent., but the market heie has recovered one and three-fourths of a cent since that date. The lowest quotation was about January 2nd. when Middling Upland was ra ted at eight and three-fourths; the price yesterday was ten; but on the 21th day of August the same quality was quoted at fifteen and three-fourth cents. Wool has fallen off about thirty per cent., and raw silk is quoted in Europe at fifty per cent, decline in the medium and lower grades. Pork has de clined forty per cent., or a still gteater, proportion. Real estatejhas begun to feel the same influence, and there is nothing of material value, which can escape the undermining tide, unless some peculiar circumstances shall make it, for the time being, an exception to the general rule. YVe have not made these comparative statements for the sake of depreciating the value of property, but to show the true tj^ndation on which our pros perity must be oneetnore renewed. Money i3 daily growing plentier, and it is likely to become abundant, and consequently cheap. In this stato of things thelow prices atwhich all other proper ty is held, will once more tempt capital into active employment. No amount of glowing prophecy concerning the good times coming will induce those who have suffered so deeply to enter into fresh engagements, until they are sure that “things have found their levei.” At the present time the average reduction in values is between forty and fifty percent., and we have already sufficient evi dence that with many products, prices have “touched bottom.” Others must decline still farther, but a large proportion have evidently- ap proached their lower limit. This, instead of being an indication of evil, is the most hopeful sign of a happy change not far distant, when all traces of past disaster will be eradicated by the channels of afresh activity. Importance of Good Transplanting:—A cor res* pondent of the Genesee Farmer states that he pro cured twenty dry and shriveled peach-trees last spring of a nurseryman who had dug them up ear ly in the spring and heeled them in, and briug “culls” 1rad remained unsold. They were set out about the time that peach-trees in the nursery row were coming out in full leaf. They were treated in the following manner: The bruised roots were pruned off, the tops closely shortened in. so that they might correspond witn the reduced roots. They were carefully set iu holes made about two feet across and eight inches deep. The earth was well filled in among the interstices, settling it with water poured in. They were then freely mulched with strawy manure. Every one lived and made “an extraordinary growth,” while one in the same rows treated in the common manner, (which we suppose means unshortened and uti- mulchcd,) did not live through half the summer. The peach tree, mure than any other, needs very free shortening back in setting out. We havo succeded better with trees three or four years from the bud, or twieo the ordinary size, than with the year trees without this treatment. There is no other tree, that is more sensibly affected with good after culture—for example, after being set well, give it mellow cultivation the same season throughout, (or mulch it heavily with coarse ma nure,) and it will send out shoots about three feet long. Give it no cultivation or mulching, nor shortening back, and let tlie earth become hart! and grown up with weeds, and tlie shoots will not be more tliaji three inches long. This experi ment is worth trying by any one who donhts it, on alternate trees in a row, or ou alternate rows. YVe are willing to let any one who prefers or practises trie old system of neglect, select from any nursery the finest peach trees that ever grew, and give them his favorite treatment for two years; and wo take the poorest “culls” that were ever discarded as worthless, if they only have‘life in them; and we will agree to beat him two-fold by means of tho best management already mentioned. We speak from actual experiment.—Country Gentleman, Do- tember IU. For the Journal of Commerce. Mammoth Apple—Oregon Forever.—The largest apple we have any account of, was grown in Ore gon, by Mr. A. D. Barnard, of Corvallis, in 1856 from a young tree. The apple was sent to Mr. Daniel Denny, President of the Hamilton Bank, Boston. It weighed 37j ounces, and measured 18 inches in circumference. Last October (1857j another mammoth apple from Oregon, weighing 37 ounces, was received in San Franciseo, at the fruit shop of N. Daborich, in Washington street. It grew in the orchard of of Samuel Simmons, Haute-Prairie, Marion county Oregon, who also sent some mammoth pears grown by himself. . The largest California apple on record weighed 33 ounces. It was raised in Napa Valley, and ex hibited at the CaliforniaState fair, October 1857. The largest apple m the Atlantic States that we have an account of, (there may hav8 been others that we have no account of,) was grown by James Woodward,! Bridgewater, Bucks county, Perfn- svlvania, in 1844. It weighed 26 ounces. Also some of 26 ounces grown iu 1845, on the farm of Capt. Christie, near Newburg, New York. A writer it the Journal of Commerce in October, 1815, says: “The AmoricanJ apple is thejiogt val uable fruit which grows on the eart||F—which opinion is on doubt correct. S. Tho way they build jails in Oregon is thus described:— “It is a log one of t wo stories; with a heavy trap door opening through the floor and furnishing the only communication between the stories, ’the prisoner is l.ept below, while the keeper sleeps above.’
