/" We begleaye to congratulate you on
the happy return of peace, and flatter
ourselves that we shall soon see re-esta-
blished, the former connection between
our two houses.
"Since the month of January last, in
consequence Of the signature of peace at
Client being known here, and the arrival
of more than one hundred cargoes OF
French wheat at once, the prices OF all
kind ofbread stuff tell, and we never saw
them at so low a stand.
At the latter end of tie year, the
price of French -four was about S II 25
cents per barrel, and that Of wheat S 2
per English bushel Oh board. At present
there is 10 fresh -four at hand, and the
price of French wheat OF every good qua
litv, is no higher than 81 5-0 to 81 "a
ON board.
We are sorry to state, that all TO-
reign -four, in order to give occupation
to our millers, lays now very heavy
duty of IS FER barrel, for which reason
wheat will be more ADVISABLE for this
country than -four, but We cannot count
upon a higher price than that above stat
e., TIL circumstances take more favor
able turn.

that ar. here, to go to st. Cbes for salt,
insomuch that this article is now entirely

ELEYATEn WARFARE-

A singular species of duel has lately taken
place at Paris. Mr.. Granpre and Mr. lie Pique
having quarrelled about celebrated. Opera Dan
Ger, who was kept by the former, but had been
discovered in an intrigue with the latter chal-
lenge ensued.-Beingb men of eievated minds,
they agreed to fight in balloons, and in order TO
give time for their preparation, it was determin-
ed that the duel should take place on that day
month. Accordingly, on the Sd ofMay, the par
ties metata field adjoining the ThuilleriGS, where
their respective balloons were ready TO receive
them. Each attended by his second, assembled
his car, loaded with blunderbusses, as pistols
could not be expected to be efficient in their pro.
bable situation a multitude attended, hearing
OF the balloons, but little dreaming of the pur.
pose the Parisians merely looked for the novelty
of balloon race. At 9o'clock the cords were
cut and the balloons assembled mejesticaliy amidst
the shouts of the spectators. The wind was
moderate, blowing from the N. N. w. and they
kept as far could be judged within 80 yards
of each other. When they had mounted % the
height of about 300 yards, Mr.. lie Pique fred
his piece Intellectually almost Immediately after
the fire was returned by Mr.. Granphre, and pen.
etrated his adyersary's balloon the Consequence
ofwhich was is rapid descent, and Mr.. lie Pique
and his second were dashed to pieces on ahouse
top over which the balloon fell. The victorious
Granphre then mounted aloft in the grandest
style and descended safe with his second, about
seven leagues from the spot Of ascension

NATURAL CURIOSITY.

We are informed by gentleman from Sack

lately been discovered near that place, on the
shore of Lake Ontario. Our informant, in com.
pany with five others, descended about 80 feet.
and proceeded more than half mile through
various departments, wonderfully wrought by ma
ture, some ofwhich were ten feet high, and 9TH
ers, barely sufficient to pass with difficulty
Through inattention, the torches with which
they descended, went out, and the company re-
manned in despair, momently expected to perish,
for five hours, when person left at the entrance,
alarmed at theirlong absence, entered with few
neighbors, and rescued them from destruction.
The air ofthe cavern was very impure and respi-
ration very difficult.-.NortiernW Mg.
