pose of meeting this difficulty, propose TO ex-
clude all ships Of war from the Black Sea.
Austria differs with the allies regarding the
Black Sea question. 1t is reported that she
will remain neutral should the allies demand
the destruction of Sebastopol, and she declares
that she entered upon represent arrangements
with the allies for the purpose Of checking not
Gripping Russia.
1t is almost certain that Russia will refuse
the third point.
The Russians in the Crmea still occupy the
ambuscade which the French attacked unsuc-
cesstully. On the 18th the allies expected to
commence operations.
Omar Pasha, on the Sd, had $4,000 men re-
connoitering the position of the Russians on
the Alma.
All the allied ships Of war at Constantinople
are ordered to Sebastopol.

Necessaries Of Life,--The New York Courier
and Enquirer having made some inquiries with
respect 10 the present supply and quantity 10 come
forward, OF agricultural products, particularly Of
the vegetable kingdom, hazards The opinion thai
prices have reached their highest figures. The
next movement, the editor says, will undoubtedly
be retrograde one, although present prices may
be maintained two or three weeks.
In looking over exchange papers, we per
ceve that prices Of produce exorbilant in all
country towns This is not the result OF scarcity
so much as the prevalent spirit of monopoly.
That there may be a "rerograde movement" a
coming down of prices, every housekeeper ar
IDENTITY hopes. Instead, however, of fall of the
tariff, or lax, on the sinner man" in this city,
there is an increase. The best butter from forty
four 10 fifty cents pound potatoes, from two to
two dollars and half per bushel -four, best fam
lily, thirteen dollars barIelperhaps it has risen
in price since, two days ago, we made the in
quiry--and beef from fourteen 10 sixteen cents
pound. Every other article of domestic comfort
is proportionatey high 1t costs twice as much 10
keep house now as it did two years ago. No one
can perceive necessity, or sufficient reason, for
the present excessive rates.
We. in common with all other consumers, fer
vently trust that the prediction OF the editor Of the
New York Courier and Enquirer will be realized
May the glad day soon come.

Wood and ChrIsty's MInstreIs made their
first appearance in this city, last night, TO densey
crowded auditory, at Iron Hall, or the Peoples
Theatre. They presented rich musical and
terpsichorean melange company so celebrated
need no extra commentator from rs; the name
alone is significant of fun, melody, and humor
For eight years they performed in New York with
ont intermission, and were the standing musical
attraction. Since their hail in that city was burned
down, in December last, they have performed in
Philadelphia and Baltimore. Tonight they offer
entire change Of programme. In the peculiar
line Of their profession, il is admitted that they
have no superiors, nor equals funny, musical
