De3s" We learn from gentlemen on the West side Of
Trinity that negro man belonging to Parson Daniels
was attacked last week by gang of wolves, the
residence of his master. They were represented as
very fierce and eager after the negro. Suclf oc-
currence has not been known in this county before
for many years. party of hunters were in pursuit
of the wolves few days ago, and it is hoped they
will be driven out of the neighborhood. Young lambs
afford easy and unresistng prey to these animals,
and without doubt many will be lost

Decrease for the week 81 ,a3
The sales of cotton for the week reach A 500
bales. The sales for the corresponding week las
year were 63,00O bales, and for the same week il
1868, 81 500 bales.
The receipts for this week have been very free
reaching 70,3lS bales against So All bales for the
corresponding week last year. The sales for the
four commercial weeks have been 1913, 500 bales.
The receipts at Mobile for the week ending las.
evening 6,479 bales against 25 800 bales for
the corresponding week last year. The total re-
ceipts at Mobile are 20032s against 242 RS bales
for the time last year, so reports the Journal
Of Commerce of that city.
The adYiees from Europe this week have been by
the Vanderbilt from Hayre Of the 7th inst. by the
Palestine Of the Canadian line from Liverpool to the
9th arrived at Portland, and by the Africa, arrived
at New York, bringing the weeks details ending
on the 10th. Cotton had receded during the week
from an a0{d., that is, from the highestquotations
of the previous week ending the I'd. The militia
or Canadian line of steamers for the winter season
will make Portland the place of arrival.
The next steamer due will be the Arago or the
City of Manchester. The Arabia for Boston is the
steamer of the l7th 1t is rather too boisterous for
the interception off Spectators Rock during the
winter season.
It has been a trying week among some Of our
largest and heaviest factors. A too free indul-
gence in the old and accustomed mode of assuming
liabilities, accepting on crops and otherwise ad
yancing, have compelled two of our largest houses
Messrs. Fellowes & Co. and Messrs. Walter Cox g.
Co., to suspend payment. The surplus of these
houses is large It will, Of course, fall heavily on
parties who hold their obligations. These reverses
must be taken with sympathy and liberality ex-
tended, as the great pressure and crisis require.
Several minor houses have also been compelled to
lay over. large factorage house and a minor
one were forced to yield to-day. The question of
sacrificing property is duly taken into considera-
tion. The result is a determination not to submit
to sacrifices. 1t is unquestonable that several fac
tors have advanced more than means and capital
would justify. s.=a $685.

KILLED MS SoN--We learn from the Washing
ton (Ark.) Courier, of the 2Gth nit, that an alter
cation occurred near that place between father
and his son, resulting in the death Of the latter.
The circumstances of this melancholy affair are
briefly as follows: The father, Mr.. Stroud, and his
son, young man about q years old, were work.
ing together on new building during their labors
dispute arose, in which the young man called his
father liar l-whereupon the father seized small
stick and struck his son upon the head, killing hin
instantly.
