o. As there are so many persons at the
present day who are victims of "over.issues,'
everything Of that nature must be interesting
10 the public. A lady attempted and sue.
ceeded in practising The trick, in DarnstabIe,
Mass, short time since, she having given
birth at one time 10 three infants, two boys
and girl, the whole weighing 90. pounds.
In this case, We are told that The husband
acknowledges the whole stock, without hesi-
tation. Another young woman, in Cole coun-
ty, Illinois, has been even more extravagant
Than the one at Cape Cod, she having pre-
scented her husband with four children at one
birth! This was her first effort in the line,
and there is no telling, therefore, what she
may be able to do hereafter. To cap the eli
max, however, of this extraordinary state of
things, We see it stated that German woman
passed through Dayton, Ohio, lately, having
with her sir children, all boys, born at the
same time. They were six months old, small
but smart.

Cholera AT PirTsBUsG.-rhe Piltsburg
Gazeile of Tuesday, says:
The disease was very violent on Sunday
and but little less 50 yesterday. Where it
will stop it is now impossible 10 antici-
pate.
The Journal expresses The opinion that the
disease may have been caused by large guam
tiles OF potatoes, which had been brought to
the market from great distance some days
previous, and when distributed, were gener.
ally diseased. In some instances the pota.
Toes when bought, were discolored and black.
encd, and offensive to taste. 1t is known
that many persons who ale them were seized
with diarrhea.

DECLINE IN FLOUR AND GRAN.-The St.
Louis papers Of The 18th inst, note very
material decline in The prices of Flour and
G':'in. Superne country and city mills flour
was selling at Sc 374 TO So SO, but without
transactions to any considerable extent
Wheat, according to quality, commanded from
$l 20 to 81 IS per bushci-ihc latter being
The very highest for any grade. Corn was
dropping, with u limited demand and few
sales at 30 to 56 cents per bushel. Should
The up rivers rise soon, as is very probable,
further reduction in prices is expected to tako
place.
At Louisville surpertine flour is quoted at
81 10 10 81 90; at Cincinnati good brands
command Sc IS; at New YORK., at latest tele.
graph dates, the flour market was unsettled
and prices nominal-wheat was lower rs was
also corn.
