Missouri HEMP-The Western (MO.) Frontier
Journal says: The new Hemp crop of Platte
county is said to exceed the crop of last year in
quantity, but is regarded as inferior in quality In
some parts of the county, especially east of Platte
river it is considerably below an average in length
II will therefore be incumbent on the farmers to
handle their hemp with more than ordinary care.
The same paper, in urging upon hemp growers
the importance of greater attention to the prepare
ton of this staple, says:
Sc Missouri hemp, when well cleaned, is superior
to Kentucky hemp; and in the Louisville market
will out-sell it at least five dollars per ton. let
ter from Kentucky manufacturer, lately received
here states that all the Missouri hemp is below the
Kentucky, as to cleanness."

PRICE OF A WIFE.-A novel case came before
Justice Tmpson, in New York, the other day. A
German named Bernard Volner, stated that he
went to New Orleans about three years ago, leav-
ing his wife, and on returning, he found that his
wife had been married again to one Louis Poulson
Voner called upon the new possessor of his wife's
hand and heart, and agreed to relinqush all claim
on condition of Pouson healing the wound by
handing over $3.50, which he promised but after
calling upon Poulson many times without any sat-
siactory result he had been compelled to bring the
case before the authorities; at the same time ex-
pressing that he is perfectly willing to part with his
wife, provided Louis only shells out the dollars

Pork AND BEEF TRADE OF HANN1BA1, Mo-

Pork AND BEEF TRADE OF HANNIBAL, Mo-
The Hannibal Courier, of the 9TH instant, says:
"The three large packing establishments of this
city have been in full blast for the past few weeks
Notwithstanding the large nu nbers of beeves and
hogs daily coming in such are the facilities for
Strengthening that they are disposed of as rapidly
they arrive. The principal amount of packing, so
far has been in beef the season for the arrival Of
pork not having yet reached its maturity"
The Courier states that the establishments refer
red to employ about two hundred hands, and kill
on an average two hundred and thirty-five head of
beeves, and nine hundred hogs per day. The
amount of slaughtering by the three, during the
present season. was four thousand beeves and three
thousand hogs. The prices paid have ranged from
50 so to So for beeves, and 81 to 50 so for hogs,
per hundred pounds. The prices paid to hands,
from 81 to 50 50 per day. The Courier adds:
=" 1t is the opinion of those engaged in the bust
ness that the amount Of packing done here this
season will greatly exceed that of any former sea-
son. Indeed the great increase of the trade, not
only here but in all the Upper Mississippi country,
in the last few years, is truly astonishing. Five
years ago such a thing as pork packing establish
ment was unheard of in this region of country
Four years ago it was attempted, and few lean
mast-fed hogs, none scarcely weighing over 200
lbs,) were killed. Since then the business of
raising and packing has gradually increased, until
now the country is filled with hogs and beeves of
the finest quality, driving in every direction to the
various markets..

LAW u.s. GRAoE.-On the Sth inst, at Pittsburg,
a case of somewhat singular character was decided
in the Circuit Court, in which Alexander King was
plaintiff, and N. Holmes & Son, defendants. The
Gazette says:
This was an action on the case in the nature of
conspiracy, for damages alleged to have been sus-
tanned by plaintiff who is merchant of this city,
by the defendants, who are brokers, having draft
on him protested on the last day of grace, at three
o'clock, instead of waiting until fUe which plain
tiff alleged The hour fixed by custom for closing
business by banks and brokers.
The defendants admitted the allegation, but con-
tended that defendants had the right to present, at
any time after three o'clock.
The court ruled that a broker may protest at
three O'Clock That a demand was good at any
place where the notary might meet or find the ac-
ceptor of draft. That tender to the broker be-
fore five O'clock 1.-THE hour of closing his office but
after the draft was in the hands of the notary pub
lie, did not affect the right to protest.
To this charge plaintiff excepted, and verdict
having been returned for defendants, will doubtless
take the case to the Supreme Court.

This is doubtless one of our old friend Anderson
