R'marks.-Wheat comes in slowly. The
quantity received last week will not average over
coo or 700 bushels per day. II to 70 cents have
been paid to-day for fair samples We think
farmers should come in with their wheat immc-
diately and avail themselves of the present high
prices, as every thing would seem to indicate
decline rather than a rse.--While Pork, Beef,
Lard, Hams, &c. have advanced steadily for some
weeks past in New York. Flour and Whca, have
remained stationary. This shows that the cas-.
tern markets are better supplied with bread stulIs
than with other provisions.

Horrible Depraviy.-The Newark
Post gives a remarkable account of the
death of Mary Ann Watts, who married
Henry Greene, and came TO her death
about week after by poison administered
by her husband. On the fourth day after
their marriage, Greene visited Hoosack
in Rensselaer, county, in company with
his wife, her brother, a Mr.. Niles, and
several ladies. Among the ladies was
one TO whom he had formerly paid his
addresses, and who had rejected his over
lures for marriage. On this occasion she
made herself very agreeable to him, and
it supposed that from this circumstance
he came TO the conclusion that, IL hiAwife
was out Of the way, he might yet succeed
with his former passion. On the follow
ing day his wife complained Of having Ia.
ken cold. and he gave her some pills
which are now believed to have contained
poison. In less than two hours she be.
gan to complain of being deadly sick, and
vor,ited violently. A physician was
called, who lief. her two white powders,
but instead Of giving her the medicine
thus left, Greene gave her something
white from spoon mixed with water,
and which has been ascerlaned to be ar
senic by the dregs left in the spoon. The
powder which he should have given he
neglected 10 destroy, and the circumstance
Of the two powders being lef. after the
medicine was known to have been admin
istered, was the first circumstance tina,
awakened suspicion. Sull, however, Ma
~ Ann fingered, and il is believed that,
he continued to administer poisonous
drugs in her nourishment up 10 the time
Of her death. 1t seems that on the third
day of her illness she began to suspect
her husband Of foul play, and upbraided
him in mild and melting terms. She
died on the third day, and her brother
then openly declared his belief in Greene's
guilt, and accused him Of the deed. Great
excitement was manifested a, HE examin.
alton. and The letter says that a! least 1000
persons were present. He was COM
United for trial, and lodged in the Troy
Jail. The trial comes on in April. The
people OF Rensselaer, are much excited
against him.

Il Nroine.-The Albany Evening Ga
zette brings forward candidate for ap-
plause and admiration. in the person of
Mrs. Hunting, "ihc spirited and handsome
wife, of an inn-keeper at Andes, Della
ware county, N. Y, in whose house two
deputy sherlIs were beIeaguered recently
by gang of "anti-renlers. The Ca
zette says: "The country around swarm
ed with anli-renters, and they dared not
advance further towards Delhi, still fifteen
miles off. Scarcely had messenger been
despatched ,hilher for succor, when the
house was surrounded by the infatuated
Indians These last, however, before
they made their attack, organized them
selves into regular public meeting, and
passed formal resolution to seize the two
beleaguered men, and execute them on
the spol!'
They proceeded TO enforce their deter
mination, and there was no man TO inter-
fere.
In this exigency, Mrs. Hunting. the spi-
rited aud handsome wife Of the nn-keep-
err, seized large carving knife from the
larder. rushed up to the attic, whittier the
intended victims had retired, planted her.
self on the narrow stairway. and declared
no Indian should pass up, except over
her corpse, and then. as we are informed
by advces direct from this scene, there,
thus armed, and thus determined. stood
this heroic woman for six hours, Drawing
the whole force Of Indian miscreants.
The expected succor at last came from
Delhi. The anli-renters retired, and Mrs.
Hunting was relieved from the post she
had SO nobly maintained.

Through the W-elland Canal the nav
igatlon, Of the lakes is uninterrupted fol
the distance of 844 miles from east IL
west-the distance north and souti. is
ofcourse, various, ranging from 347
| miles us the extreme distance. sfhe
country to which these waters are the
great highway Of transport, has often
been the theme of high wrought eulo
GUM, for the variety and richness of
It's soil, and the extent of its resources.
AS we'll as the business of these praises,
as the extent to which this fertility is
being subjected to the hand of culture
and the rapidity with which these re-
sources are being developed, under tie
liie-brnging touch of the enterprise
which peculiarly characterizes its in
habltants,is gathered from bare glance
at the fact that the commerce of the
four lakes, including all capital afoat,
during the year 1S43, was estimated
by the Typographical Bureau at $65,
coo, GOO.
The total amount expended by the
general government on these lakes for
the improvements necessary to protect
and convenience this commerce, is sta
ted by Mr.. Whittlesey Of Ohio, at So,
100, 600. s
When the projected ship canal a.
round the Falls Of St. Marie, shall be
completed, the wide expanse of lake
Superior will be added to the present
extent ofthe lake navlgation-allowed
the adventurous commercialist to crowd
some / % miles still father North and
several hundred farther West. The
length of the route proposed to be cut
by this canal is said to be but three
fourths of a mile, and the whole ex-
pense OF the improvement is estimated,
if we rightly remember, at about $3.50,
coo. by this comparatively small out
lay, less than the cost of three months
congressional black-guard, access is
at once attained to the whole country
tributary to Lake Superior-a track so
rich in timber and mineral wealth that
il had not been unaptly termed the
"Denmark of America"
