CRooKER's MILLINERY EsTABLIsHHEST.-Yes-
tosday was the Fall opening day OF the above
establishment, and prompted by desire TO
see something very Bioe as well rs 10 be in
fashion (as nearly every body, We thought,
was there,) We went along with the tide and
looked al the large and foe display Of millinery
aud fancy goods there % be seen. Mr.. Croker
has brought on a very large and varied stock,
embracing sll the articles belonging 10 the
trade, Of every style aud quality. The stock
Of bonnets, flowers, ribbons trimmings, head
dresses, &c, is far beyond what We expected
to see. The liner qualities OF these vAriousstyles
Of goods are indeed superb, SURPRISING any
thing we have ever seen. The bonnets, par
ticularly, We look upon as the pFettiest things
Ia that line ever introduced 10 the notice Of the
public.
Mr.. @. is prepared % sell millinery goods Al

Tho Hog Market,

Prom the LOUISVILLE Journal oth INST
Since last Wednesday the weather has been fa~
Vorabls for killing hogs and all the pork houses
have been in full operation. 10 our last weekly no.
tce OF the hog trade spoke Of very large fall
ing of, both in number and weight. This has been
fully realized Already more than one half Of the
number OF hogs which will be killed here have been
received. Last year $685. 900 head were slaughter
ed around the falls and this year, from present APPS
pearances, il will hardly reach GAG, OO0-showiug
deficit in numbers Of IS 00e, and the falling off in
weight will increase this deficit at least 10000. At
other packing points similar falling of is caculat
ed on Owing to this the market has been very
firm, and prices have gradually advanced. Within
the last two days have heard of sales of about
1000 bead, in several lots at Sc 25aS6 so, and
yesterday a sale OF 35l head averaging 1876 lbs,
equal 70 IS 81 Ii is thought that these prices will
not be sustained. Most buyers decline giving over
Sc. At Cincinnati, where prices had also gone up,
a reaction has already taken place. At Now York,
the stock Of pork is lighter than last year and pr.
ces firm, but, at New Orleans, private dispatches
report the market very dull, mess pork being quot>
ed SIC, bacon shoulders 81 cents, clear sides II
Gems prime barrel lard, l9 cts, and keg Is cts.
Very little has been done 10 the product. Hold
ders now refuse to sell mess pork at SIG; hams are
held at a cents; No. | aud prime lard l0iall
cents. There has been nothing done in shoulders
or sides.
A great deficiency has also taken place in beef
packing while the stock at New York is very light.
The Indianapolis Journal Of Saturday
says
There is a great falling OF in the number of hogs
this year as compared with last. Many farmers,
nos satisfied with the opening market price, have
packet on their own account aud that has lessened
she number considerably that gular packers would
otherwise have had. Last year there we're upwards
Of GO, 900 hogs packed at Indianapolis So far the
present season only about 10000 have been put
up, aud il NAV be said that the hurry of the sea-
son Is over. The Rumber Of hogs that will be cut
up here the present year will notgO over oneshird
the number Of last year.

of this or any other season has achieved great
er popularity with our theatre going public
than has Miss Miles. She is always thoroughly
acquainted with her part, and represents the
character of her role in most unexceptiona-
bic manner. We need hardly bespeak for her
a full house, as che is such a decided fayorite.
She appears in three Of her best and most pop
ular characters. The whole entertainment is
singularly choice and attractive.

THE HALFWAY HOUSE.

BY THE AUTHOR OF "PAUL FERReLL."
-'that half way house, that rude
Hut, when wise travellers drive with circumspec-
ton
l.lfe's sad post-horses DER the dIeary frontier
Of age, and looking back to youth give one tear -
Dan JHaS, cdato 4, verse ~
Look back, look back the height Is won,
The journey Of the youth Is done;
Fnou has pass'd the chime Of fow,rs,
The solemn snow above them towers
Look back thou never, never more
Wit breathe the air thou breath DIST before
There they lie, those tender hues
NeiPd In thickly- rising dews,
There they sleep, those tones so dear
w hich woke and eharm'd thy youthful ear
Never more the tiow'rs or strain
shalt thou see or hear again.
Ihey were thine, and that Is gone,
Time Of such seasons has but one;
AL was new--thy heart and all,
Passion, Duty Hope, Delight,
And where'er thine eye could fail
There were objects fresh and bright.
Age must tai those fiiry things
And from them fashion all he feels,
But his hand Is cold, and filings
A damoness DER LIES tuneful things
That half their music steals.
His fingers change the early key,
And play II slow and solemnly;
Stiff and cold and of repeated
Is the strain wherein tbs meted
Not like Youth, for he can make
The soul OF ev'ry string awake;
Delicate, light, and swift his hand
Flies DER the Tyre and bids Il sing
Till the very heart In reply will ring
And feel Itself all in fairy land
Look back. fer there Is the scene wherein
Thou hardest the song Of Life begin.
