HARD TIMEs AT THE WEsT-The declining
prices Of breadstuffs will tell with severity up
on the West, and we can hardly look for any
great activity in trade this season. While the
prices of the productions Of the Southern
States are going up, and the planters are OBJ
tanning very large profits, the staples of the
grain growing States are low and declining,
even in the face of moderate harvest. 1t is
matter of regret that some of the surplus free
labor of the grain growing States cannot be
employed in the production of cotton, sugar,
and other articles in the warmer climate of
the Southwest, the staples OF which are in
such scanty supply that they are altogether
insufficient to supply the necessities of the
world, and the high prices which they COM
mand are sources of great wealth to the pro-
ducers.
The Cincinnati Gazette of Wednesday says
their markets are very dull Flour, wheat,
and corn have largely declined under discour-
aging sdWces from the seaboaId, and, at the
reduced prices there is not much disposition
to operate. The late decline in England, re-
ported by the Arabia, seems TO have taken
dealers by surprize and so confidently had an
advance been looked for, that even still a very
general opinion prevails that the article must
be worth SIS per barrel in this market, and
cannot go much below this rate. The truth
is, to allow an ordinary shipping margin to
Great Britain the article is not worth over SO
% per barrel now in this market. This may
seem strange, but to those acquainted with
the trade, it is perfectly obvious. The re-
ceipts during the week have been moderate,
but they have been in excess Of the demand
and the great bulk Of them have been ship

ROMANTIC MARRIAeE.-A romantic mar
rage came off at Beaufort, N. c., on We'd
nesday evening. cossting steamboat put
into that port, and the captain being taken
sick, took rooms at one of the hotels The
landlord, itseems, had an interesting daugh-
ter, who, from sympathy, womanlike, took
an interest in the Captain, and probably adj
ministered to his wants in his distress among
strangers. The gallant Captain was not cal
ious to such divine attributes. Sympathy
ripened into friendship, friendship into love,
and as above stated, on Wednesday evening,
while the parents of the fair Samaritan were
in ignorance of what was to take place, they
were married, after an acquaintance Of but
few days. A native who had long wooed the
fair one in vain, hearing of the good fortune
OF his rival, got gloriously ho,o come you so
broke all the glasses in the bar room of the
hotel tore up things generally, and it was
feared would commit suicide.

a TERRIBLE ENCOUNTER WITH BULL Docs.
Yesterday, Reed r. Young, the we'll known
pilot, was most terribly bitten and lacerated
by two fierce dogs, the property of milk
man. As Mr.. Young was walking toward
the railroad track, the dogs suddenly jumped
on him, one selling him by the calf of the
leg, and the other attempting to catch him by
ohe throat. He had presence OF mind suffi-
eient to throw up his in defence of his
throat, and the dog seized him by the arm,
tearing away the clothes and flesh in terrible
manner. The other dog tore the flesh from
his leg. severing an artery. He then caught
Young by the top of his head with his teeth,
and literary tore off the scalp. The other
dog fastened his fangs in his breast, and they
had so completely worried and bitten him,
that he was almost exhausted and entirely
overpowered. and but for the timely assistance
of neighbor would have been killed out

and had much difficulty in getting them loose
from their prey.
We learn that one of the dogs was killed
but the other escaped. A boy was the first
one to interfere in behalf of Mr.. Young, by
shooting at one of the dogs with a pistol,

IHE COMET, we regret to say, is exercising
a most corrupting influence in Buffalo, and
VIII probably fail to gum that good will with
which the return of a SO long absent visitor
should be greeted. The mischievous para
graph stating that four clock IN the morn
ing is the best time to view the celestial visi
tor, has been widely circulated in that terri
tory, and the consequence is, that great
number of Buffalo gentlemen have got into
the habit of sitting up till that time about
seven nights in the week, to pay their res
poets There is nothing radically immoral in
the mere matter of sitting up iii tour o'clock
III the morning, but it is said that owing to
the stimulating processes which they find it
necessary to resort to, in order to keep awake
so long, these amateur astronomers have COM
menced seeing two comets apiece, each with
two tails besides variety of other stars not
distinctly specified. Some Of the Buffalo pa
pers are in great tribulation aboutit.-Boston
