It is stated that many of the millers have already lost heavily oo contracts made, when wheat was less than one dollar per bushel, and they see no profit in the immediate future. Bat little flour has been shipped from here for the last three weeks, and large amounts are in store, more than enough to supply all the demand for some lime. Toe millers are satisfied that there must be a decline in wheat pretty soon. At all events they will not purchase ontil the price falls, or there is a margin on flour. , Kentucky Regulators. ; C'inoihnatt, November 15. A -special to the Enquirer states that Lewis Scoggs has been convicted of the murder of Wad dell, in Elliott county, Kentucky, and sentenced to eight years' imprisonment. Judge Rider refused a new hearing .and the case is to be appealed. ,Tbe prisoner was removed from the county jail for fear that the regulators would shorten the sen tence. The regulators c in . northeastern Kentucky have issued a proclamation, fashioned after the declaration of inde pendence. It recites that in view of the reign of assassination, robbery and rapine, which has lasted in that region for four years, they have had to band together to protect themselves and the property of honorable people. They deny- that they tre a mob. but assert that they are an or ganized and disciplined set of men who mean business. They assure good ci'izens that they have nothing to fear,' and warn ail barn burnt ra and murderers to leave thecountr, and threaten them with lynch law where the State law fails in its duty.

The court then adjourned until Monday, the Secretary, Mr. Sharswood, being in structed to see when the captain of the Champion would attend. It is understood that there is no way to compel them to attend, as they are amenable to the local United States inspectors where the steamship belongs, and this being New York city, their trial, if any, most take place there.

Washington Correspondence Savannah News.) The Democrats and ' the Republicans whom it has been my fortune to meet are more than usual of one way of thinking among themselves politically. The Re publicans, as a general rule, predict that the next session after the recess: for the holidays is gtfng to be remarkably; lively politically, and tbat there is going to be plenty of opportunities for Republicans to whoop up the stalwart issue and make a solid North. They openly express the determination of precipitating upon every possible occasion a fierce political debate ' and of making it as bitter and as vindictive as possible. They do not intend to at tempt any important legislation, they say, except to help along the different appro priation bills they are always ready to vote away any amount of money but to leave the inauguration of important legis lation to the majority. They will fight against this legislation "most likely, they say,1 no matter what its character may be. This, is a minor consideration to i them, however: "Their all' in the next session seems to be based on the hopes of again opening up sectional debate. The Democrats have business princi pally in view at the next session. They express the determination to do work and make the session short and mainly a bus iness one. The principal business to be accomplished will be the revision of the tariff on a liberal basis no protection for one section of the country in order, to en rich it, while the money that goes to en rich that section comes from the rest of the country. It is a great and difficult task, but one demanded by - three-fourtls of the people of the country, and it is in tendeu that the demand shall be fulfilled. The rich tariff protectionists might - as well take note of the fact. They probably have already done so, and are preparing to accomplish die defeat of sny thing tbat looks like a revision of the tariff. They will have a hard fight The bill to pre vent political assessment of officeholders, which is now on the House calender, will also be pressed. But little in a financial way will be attempted except, perhaps, the passage of a bill to allow the Treasury Department to resume refunding opera tions in 1880. The internal revenue law will be amended in some particulars for the good of the country. Above all there is to be no sectional debate if it can be prevented. The Radicals only want such exchange of chin music to ; misrepresent all that is said on the one side, and per petuate their hold on the government by appealing to the worst feelings of the North. This lesson has been learnt, and it is intended that there shall be no repe tition of the useless debates of last ses sion. The fight with Mr. Hayes will not be renewed, but as heretof re stated in this correspondence, there will nardly be an appropropriation made for special dep uty marshals. ; 'W' , The above is the gist of.: what the Ke nnhtiran and Democrats say as to the next session.'. Something; may, .p ftt any time, after Congress re-assemDieo, w knock some of .these' calculations m the head.
