After having suffered saverely from this way of doing business, Chicago shippera liave since thon shipped to Phila- delphia aud New York, leaving Dinitimore and her Corn Committeo to take the conve- quonces. Millions of bushels of corn whicl wonld have all gone to Baltimore have been gent to othercities, The pretext given in Baltimore hns been that the trade want to eatablish n high roputation for Baltimore mail corn, and the rosutt will be, probably, that Baltimors will have nll the reputation it wants, but the corn will bo sold from other markets, ‘Tho Baltimore American of Junoc 28 pub. lishes n sories of interviows with Baltimore competled to sna it for libel,—~now speaks of him in high terms, among other things declar- ing that ho **has won the conflidenco of his as- socfates fn the Iouse, and cspeciathiy of the Judiciary Committee, of which ha is a mom- ber,” and that he *¢dessrves commendation, conafdering thegencral courso of his party.!” All of which, on being Interpreted, means that one good turn desorves another, and that, as the Daily News, the LYNDBorgan, not long ago puifed CAnPENTER, the Sentine!, MATT'a organ, now puffs Lyxpn.
