RETAIL MARKET.-We are advised that per-
haps some of our readers in the country may
perhaps fall into an error by confounding our
report of the wholesale market with that of
the retail. For instance, yesterday we quoted
butter at 12ia15 cents. This is the price paid
by produce dealers who purchase large guam
titles; while at the same time good article
of family butter will readily command from
90 to 80 cents per pound; and from 100 to 800
pounds could be sold here every morning al
that price. We make this explanation for the
benefit both of the producer and the con-
sumSr, that the former may understand what
he can do with his butter, and the latter be
thus enabled to procure first rate article with
Less trouble

West Tennessee.

letter written by a well informed gentle
man at Huntingdon, says; ain this (CarroD
county we expect TO make gain for Gentry
over Henry's majority, say 100 votes-should
not be surprised if it should run to l5O." In
Henry and Weakly our friends say they will
give Gentry a much better vote than Henry
received. In Benton, pretty smart gain is
expected for Gentry.
The visit of Messrs. DoNELsoY and McEwIN,
now on a speaking tour in that division Of the
State, was looked to with much interest by
the people. The Democracy were making a
desperate struggle, and our friends were gal,
lantly rallying to the rescue.

SINGULAR PHENOMENON on THE RIvER.-The
Louisville Courier of Saturday, says the Off
GERS and others on the Memphis packet TishO-
mingO, on her trip up the Ohio river Thursday
evening, saw a singular, and we may add,
frightful up-heaving Of the river or black wa
tsr spout, just ahead of them, near Alton and
Wolf Greek. The river, which is very deep at
that point, was in great commotion inst about
the middle of the river, and a dense mass rose
from the surface, having the appearance at
first, of a couple of laden coal boats appended
in the river, and then sunk down again. This
great black mass, as it appeared TO be, rose
from ten to twenty feet above the level Of the
river four or five times, and then sank down
again. In the meantime the boat was APP
preaching near the scene, and the last time
covering a space of thirty or forty feet it
rose or belched forth huge volume Of black
slime ssSd froth, fully fifteen feet high, all of
which was seen by the officers Of the boat.
As soon as 1t subsidized the river was COW
cred with great patches of black looking
slime and filth, which spread widely over the
surface of the water in some instances while
other portions sunk immediately. The weather
Twas clear and calm. No emotion, lar or shak-
ing was felt on the boat, and nothing unusual
perceived on the shore The cause of this
black water spout, or water quake, We leave
70 philosophers TO explain.
