Milwaukee Markets.
July 9Th. 1858

July 9th. 1858.
The principal feature in the business
! of the past week has been the very large
receipts, of Wool. The aggregate for
zthe week exceeds $4,000 lbs, and thus
Mar. for the season, 100000 lbs, mostly
&lelivered on contracts made during the
Winter, but good deal purchased from
FIRST hands. The market continues ami
mated and prices well sustained. We
Guote common to IA blood, 35a4O; Ia
Sto IL dc, 38a42; ga to full blood 44a5O,
and occasionally 2 or 3 cents more for
= extra clips. The feeces, as general
rule, have been lighter this year than the
y last, but the flocks have been so largely
increased, that the aggregate product will
be much larger. A large proportion of
the Wool brought in is of excellent quail
ity, and in good condition. Upwards of
10000 lbs have already been forwarded
to the Eastern markets. 1t is supposed
that the aggregate purchases in this mar
ket will reach 100000 lbs, being nearly
double the amount last year.
A'i oi"Ah IiiCcs are rainier ioWeT tlldH
last week. The Eastern markets droor
little, and there is prospect of hea-
Wy crop in most of the Northern and
Western States. Hence the abat emeni
in price. We quote Wheat, winter, al
78as3; Club, 75a78, and ordinary to fab
Spring 65 70. Oats have declined and
are quiet at % cts Rye steady, at 58a62
Barley in fair request, 36a44; Corn.
5Oa55.
In Provisions, we note no change since
last week, Beef is worth 3,5Oa3, IS
Sheep 2,50a4,00; Veal, 3,5Oa5,50, and
Lambs soaps. Mess Pork is held al
1850, with occasional of small lots al
that figure. Live hogs are selling, for
city use, at $4,50a5,00.
The prospect for heavy crops through
out our State continues very fine. In
deed, with good weather for the next
two or three weeks, an unusually large
yield is certain.-[ Milwaukee Sentinel

Near Lancaster, on the It'll of July, Amos
Harry, son of J. P. Miner, aged 8 years, four
months and two days.
''He died before his youthful soul
Had ever burnt with wrong desires
Had ever spurned at heavens control,
Or ever quenched its sacred fires.
''Ie died to sin he died to care;
But for moment felt the rod
Then, rising on the viewless air,
Spread his light wings, and scared to God"

DIE ID

AT Stonington, Ct, Jan. /, WILLIAM A.
LORD, In the 10th year of his age. Again
are we called to mourn over the early grave Of
one, with whom we have been familiar almost
from our very birth The deceased, young
man of high hope and promise was respected
and beloved by all that knew him being
naturally of a cheerful and happy dispos.
tion, he was well calculated to make friends
wherever his lot was cast. Thus beloved
and respected, he has passed away greatly
lamented by all. Scarce had the last RAYS
of the setting sun, given place to the sombre
shades of night, ere he was called to enter
the dark valley. How memory takes us
back to other days when we, happy band
of youth, assembled in those classic halls of
lore. Where are they now! Some of them
sleep on the coral beds of the ocean, with the
sea weed as their winding sheet, others have
found their last resting place, in far famed
Eldorado. lis past, forever past those hap
Ply days of youth forever gone The circle
has been broken and link after link has been
severed. Let us all learn this lesson from
the death Of our much esteemed and valued
friend, that soon we shall be called to 20 the
way of all the earth. Soon the few remain
ing links of other days will be severed for
ever ANIcUs.

but encouraging, paragraph, dated Jan
II. We hope to hear from him often
I" Perhaps the readers of your paper
would like to know how the temperance
cause progresses in New London. Mr..
>. B. Cough has been lecturing here
tor the last six days, in his elegant style,
to large gatherings. 1t is estimated that
on Sunday evening there were two
thousand people in the house, and as
many more who sought entrance in vain
We think that the cause has taken q
new start for when rum-sellers and
drinkers listen to such lectures and
appeals as are given by Mr.. G.. the
friends Of temperance mag feel assured
that their labor is not all in vain. BY
the. way, one rum-seller gave him ten
dollars as token of his appreciation
Don't you think that is encouraging for

HJ" Boys ripen early in these days.
The slips" are exchanged for pants
the sugar plums for cigars and tobacco
guilds. To strut and swear are accom-
plishments soon mastered. At fourteen
the young gentleman runs with calico,
talks about my " woman," eats pea nuts
at concerts and stamps applause, gets
tipsy on special occasions and destroys
BEARS grease. There is full develop
ment. He swears at common people
and insults the aged. He assumes a
knowing air and sneers at the women,
and does not esteem himself many pun
kins unless he takes especial pains to
exhibit his contempt of his mother.
This is prolific country, and progres-
sive age. Boyhood is abolished.
