Pork Packing.

We shall also in connection with the above
continue the packing business. as heretofore, and
cut all lots offered Of 100 hogs and upwards. and
make cash advances, if desired. This. with the
facilities we hive for slaugEtering. will enable
persons to drive here with safety, as they can
either sell OF pack.
Our prices will be as low as at any similar
establishment on the Mississippi river and the
same as last season, and no extra charge will be
made at any time for advance in salt or barrels;
but our list of prices will be rigjly adhered to-.
Our stock of Barrels and Salt is large. and
amply sufficient TO meet the demand. We have
also added to the house Steam Boiler and Tubs
for steaming out the Lard from the ofal, which
is usually thrown away and is an entire loss to
the owner, but which we shall render for his ben
eft.
Having experienced help and a good house, we
have no hesitation in saying we are prepared to
do justice to any lots entrusted to us, and that
persons who have hogs will find Bloomington a
good point to drive to for packing or selling
We will pay premium of ten dollars for the
heaviest hog delivered at our Pork House the
coming Winter.

And all her heroes little more than players;
Her Kings their exits have, and entrances;

Then uouvrier- out Of work, casquette on neao'
And frowning hair face, going, in faith,
To Louis Blanc to school. Then Lamareine,

Unto Dame Liberty's eyebrow; then sNIobile,'
Capped in strange Clothes and hearding barricades

Taking sight at death and devastation

~ SLAUGHTER HOUSE at Bio ..,s1i;,riun,
and shall have it completed and ready to receive
hogs on the first Of November. Every convent
ence and improvement will be introduced, and
experienced help employed. We shall also have
attached thereto number of Pens for the &C
commodat;on of persons driving here, and hogs
once in the yard will be taken care Of, fed if
necessary, slaughtered and delivered at any Porl:
House, in Bloomington, free Of charge.
The ADVANTAGES Of driving hogs are obvious 10
all, as it is done at much less expense, the pork
cuts to better advantage, ard with much less
risk, and will always command better price.
We pledge ourselves that all hogs driven to us
shall be as well and fairly handled as at any point
on the river and to the entire satisfaction of all
persons driving, and without delay, as we can
kill and hang 500 per day.

both Of the benefits and burthens Of government. -
We can conceive no means more likely to hasten
the accomplishment of these grand objects, than
through vigorous su: port of the enlightened inc.

space of one year grew rapidly worse. In ad-
diton to this l was attacked with violent
cough. Although an excellent physician lived
in the same house, and used the greatest exer-
ton, and paid the stl ictest attention, it bafled
all his skill. Two others were called in, one OF
which was an aged and skillful physician, but
all their efforts proved alike, unavailing. AT
last, physician who was attending at camp
meeting in the neighborbood, came to see me,
and declared that could not last more than a
day longer; also, all of the vast number who
came to see me, believed that few days, at
most, must end my earthly career. My friend
