dria to Cairo, which IS now rapidly advancing, they
will be within 36 hours aloat on the Red Sea, and
in twelve days afterwards be landed safely in Bonn

We are glad to learn by the following paragraph

that every man who pursues similar course will
meet with just such luck Louisville is MOI the

upon every possible pretext for raising the price Of
that article. In this city we have recently had an
advance of fire cents per busheI our coal merchants
now asking only % and 80 cents per buslel:

LIGHTNING RoDs.-A good deal of exctement has
been created somewhere at the East on account OF
the fact that dwelling, furnished as it was said
4" with good lightning rod " had been struck and
very much injured Mr.. f. Merriam of New York
man who has paid much attention to such matters
paid visit to the place and examined the rod. He
found itcovered with coat of white paint for a
considerable portion Of its length, and that the
fluid had followed it till it came to this paint when
it leaped off upon the building and found another
track to the erth.
OF cou Sc the mere fact that an iron rod is some
where and somehow attached to a building will
not secure it againstlightning 1t must substantial
ly obey the conditions required A house was
struck in Galena two years ago, which had one of
Spartts rods upon it; and the inference was that
5. rats rods were good for nothing, whereas the
rod only run into the earth one foot and then ter
minated on a solid rock. After long drouth the
foot of the rod was dry as glass. A hat will not
keep the rain from mans head if it has a hole
through the crown, nor VIII spont carry off water
if 1t is turned bottom side mp. The rcd must sup
ply a road to the earth.
Whether all kinds of paint will spoil a eonduc-
tor IS not quite certain. We do not think that a
coating of lampblack mixed with spirits of turpen-
tine would injure rod; and yet we should prefer
to try 1t before so covering it. But white lead put
on with oil would of course do the business. .

Pork SPEcULAuoNs--Notwithst the dis
aSers which overlook the speculations in Pork last
season, dealers in the West are again rushing into
the market at rates as high as last year. under a
vague impression that there is money to be made
by it, The official and other reports which 90 10
shsw large increase in the Hog Crop this season
are ignored and set aside, and the new specuatons
are based upon presumed shortness of the crop
and an anticipated increase in the home and forecn
demand The Cincinnati Price Current disconr
ages this view of the matter, and urges its conf
dent belief that the increase supply of Hogs this
year win be much greater than the increased de-
mand In this connection it publishes the follow
ing extract from letter written by reliable party
in Charleston, S. C.-PdtsJurg Gazette
AS far as we can learn, the number of Hogs in the
South this season will greatly exceed the past not
only in quality but in quantity The Hog crop in
East Tennessee viii be quite large, and Hogs are
now offering at very low rates say 50 80 gross The
