EARLY CONTRACTS FOR HoGs.-DHring the
last. two weeks, we have heard of several con-
tracts for hogs, for November delivery, and
there is no doubt that good deal is doing in
this way, but the particulars have been kept
as private as possible. The highest rate paid
that we heard of. was So rs, but it was ru-
mored that as high as six dollars had been paid
for lot to be delivered by the 10th of Novem-
Der, and to average 30 lbs. The desire to en-
ter into these contracts on the part Of provision
dealers is not general Dy anysmeans; and, with
the experience Of last season before them, it is
not likely it will become so at any time be-
tween this and the opening OF the packing sea-
son, except at much lower rates.

ARRAY between Gen. Wise and Hugh r. Plea
SAINTS, in the Capitol of Virginia.
RICHMoND Inlv n

! RICHMOND, July Z. +
Hugh R. Peasants, brother of the late
John Hampden Peasants, and formerly editor
of the Penny Post Of this city, went this morn
ing into the Executive Chamber of the Capitol,
while Gov. Wise was engaged writing, and ia
king seat by invitation Of the Governor, said,
after brief period: II thought gizzard foot
was here" Gov. Wise smilingIy replied: 81
am the man.'' Peasants, rising from his seat,
and approaching the table at which the Gov
ernor sat, said: by God, I did not know you;
and so you are ebo shin and gizzard foot?p 81
am" remarked Gov. Wise, with smile, "and
you are Hugh Peasants" Peasants there
upon commenced abusing the Governor, with
out any provOcation whatever. when the Gov
ernor ordered him to leave the room, but he
refused to do so. The Governor then rose
from his seat, approached Peasants, and ia
king hold of him, endeavored to push him out
Peasants resisted, Squared off, and placed
himself in an attitude to strike, when the Gov
ernor struck him with his fist under the left
eye, and cut him pretty severely. He then
seized him by the arm, turned him round, and
kicked him. t
At this time the messenger of the Execu-
tive came up, and had him removed by the or
der of the Governor. 1t is said that Peasants
was intoxicated.

STEAMBOAT FIRE AT BAYOU SARA de-
structive fire broke out in Bayou Sara, on the
LIST inst, among the fleet of trading boats lying
at the levee. The fire originated on the boat
belonging to Messrs. Whiteman & Hatch, and
rapidly spread to that of Messrs. Leet & irwin.
Both boats, with their valuable cargoes Of
groceries, were entirely consumed. The books
and papers, however, were saved. The loss
is estimated at about $1,000. on which there is
no insurance. The fire is supposed to have
been the result of accident.
THE following in regard to the Western
rivers, is from the St. Louis Evening News Of
Tuesday;
To Cairo eightor nine feet is reported. The
Illinois and Upper Mississippi have both be-
come so low that they cannot well fall any
more, and are about stationary. Thirty inch
es is reported on the Lower Rapids. On the

feet water, and the river in the vicinity of Hem
nepin and Spring Creek is filled with canal
boats, some of which have been aground there
two or three weeks The Missouri continues
in fine boating order.
