~ Much curiosity has been expressed as
to the Peter Harvey whom MIR Webster on
his death-bed entreated not to leave him to
the las. We understand that he is a quiet
merchant of Boston-a great admirer of Mr.
Webster, and reputed to have been useful to
him in his former pecunary necessities.

Pork cutting has commenced at Gin
cinpati and Louisville, but not yet in Evans
vile. We generally have found it difficult
work to get at the "head and tail" of pigs in
this place. There are either no contracts or
but very few made in advance, or buyers
think it to their interest to keep very dark
and mysterious in relation to such matters.

HoGs.-The Louisville Journal of Monday

Hocs.-The Louisville Journal of Monday
say:
One house was killing on Saturday. IF
the weather continues cool, the business will
be entered INFO with spirit this week. One
OF our packing houses contracted last week
for about 5000 Kentucky hogs, averaging
from 223 TO 800 pounds, at 81 per cwt. Some
other contracts for lighter hogs have been
made at the same, the seller delivering them
here.
The Danville Tribune. of Friday, says:
We have recently heard of several sales of
hogs at So rs gross, but within a wv days
the prices have advanced, and holders now
demand S4, at which figure sales are now be-
ing made.
The Huntsville (Ala.) Advertiser, says:
PoRK.-The opinion seems to be general,
that pork this season will be more plentiful
than it was last. The supply of hogs is not
equal to the home assumptions; but the corn
crop was so large that same quantity of hogs
will be made TO 60 one-fourth farther than
last season, as they will be made fatter. We
have heard of pork engagements in this place
at % cents per pound.
We clip the following from the last Chat
tanooga Advertiser:
In hogs there is promise of larger busi-
ness than last season. Already about 1000
have crossed the river and found market
chiefly below; AZ cents gross is fair quota
ton.

Georgia.

The Federal Union, published at Milledge-
vile, has long been known as the central organ
ofihe Democracy of that State. 1t gives Gov.
CoBB and his allies of the Constitutional Union
party no quarter Its last issue is full of hard
hits levelled at the perpatetic governor, and his
Tammany Hall platform. -. ~.
We give the following as specimen ..
Is IT so?-Gov. Cobb told the Democrats of
New York at Ta,nmany Hall, that he represented
the true Democracy of Georgia, and pledged
them the aid of his Union friends in Georgia, in
the Baltimore convention " hat does Gov
Cobb mean! Does he mean to say tina. the
Union party of Georgia is going to send dele
gates to the Baltimore convention? What is
the truth now in respect to this matter? Every
primary meeting of the Constitutional Union
party in Georgia, has directly and unequivocslly
declared that they will not send delegates to the
Baltimore convention. Now, where does Gov
Cobb get his authority to make such pledges to
the Democrats of St. Tamnany! 1t is an eyre
gious blunder, which the veriest blockhead could
not fail to discover. 1t will soon be seen what
portion of the Union party Gov. Cobb transferred
to it. by the number that will follow him off
into the Baltimore convention. 1t won't be a
corporal's guard.
From the same paper We also extract this
shor: exposition of the fallacy of fnalty"

friends would explain what they mean by the
