Mcaregor Market.

The Wheat receipts have been heavy
FOR the past two weeks and prices have
been well sustained. From 81 to l, 5
have been the ruling rates, but buyers
are now unwilling to SO above BIO
Wheat has declined in all the markets,
owing to the heavy sales made in consc-
quence of the sudden and large advance,
and also to the favorable weather of the
past month.
Oats and Corn will bring 81 90 but
they are almost out of fashion here.
New Potatoes are being shipped up

Our Milwaukee, Galeaa, Chicago and
st. Louis papers all note a caution on
the part of produce dealers. At st.
Louis Wheat is 24cts. lower than it was
on the LIST June. The near approach of
= heavy harvest should admonish our
agricultural readers to sell their grain
when they are offered 50 per cent above
the average price-this may not always
win, but it is safe betting, and prudence
prompts the course we Suggest.

DARLINGTON, 2oth Marc

DARLINGTON, 2oth March,
As General WoRDEN, one of the owners of the
FIGURING Mill in Darlington, was driving a
team with long log attached, across the dam
to make some repairs, the current fioated the
wagon and log and took the horses Of their
feet. The General had just time to save him
self by jumping, and got to shore. The poor
horses, DC, went over the dam with fearful
plunges and the surging waters rolled them
over and over. \ crowd was soon on hand fol-
lowing them down the stream but there was
no means at hand to help them. The animals
struggled nobly, but encountered rs they Were
by the wagon and log, they could do but little

Pickatonica now presents, to help themseives-
sometimes nothing could be seen Of them for
two or three minutes, then a little lower down
they could get their heads up and obtain a lit
tie breath, then they would disappear again,
and only their tails could be seen floating
along. The money value of the horses was lost
sight of in the general sympathy for the noble
creatures. How they strove for the shore every
time they had any chance. After they had
gone about quarter Of mile some obstruction
occurred, and they got their heads above water,
and still strove for the shore. just then a
young man named ALLEN, from New York
State, who had lived when boy on the bank
of one Of the canals came running with rope
Coat and boots We're off in minute. He plung-
ed into the stream, swan out amid ice and
foam, made his rope fast to the bit of the strong
