In prices, there was no special change. The

views OF buyers and sellers was also wide. As on

Hogs.

The pork season is at hand, and the houses Of
our packers are in complete order, though the
weather as yet has not been regarded as sufii-
GENTLY safe for slaughtering purposes. Our
packers are purchasing freely all well fatted hogs
offering, at market prices, filing up their pens in
the hope Of soon having favorable weather for
their business. So far as we have been able to as
certain, the crop OF hogs in our State is about
equal to that Of last year. The fields OF the great
West are teeming with corn, and il is stated that
IS greater thanever before. The tax assessment
shows an increase Of more than so, 900 more
hogs than last year, and it is estimated by those
who have investigated the matter that there will
DC not less than 5,OOOO 900 hogs packed the coming
season, which is 100000 head, we believe. more
than has ever been packed in the United States
Advices from England and Ireland exhibit an in
crease Of more than 800 900 head over the crop OF
last year, which viii OF course affect our export
trade materially. All OF which, together with
the large stock Of mess pork and cut meats that
must be carried over into the new season. should
convince the most increduiOUs that low prices
must prevail throughout the year for all kinds OF
the hog product. Our market is governed by
current Western prices, and our packers and
operators take up all good swine at those rates
In addition TO the several packing houses there
are always a number of buyers for Southern ac-
count in our market, and farmers and drOvers
can rely upon finding ready purchasers for their
hogs at Western figures. eQuOte sales at stock
averages OF $50 lbs. and upwards, and receipts
fair.
The Louisville Ledger OF yesterday says Of that
market:
The pork packing business was less active to-
day than Tor two DAYS previous, though at the
stock yards the receipts are liberal, and prices
that ruled fully maintained. The killing to-day

servants, walters, day-laborers and

Those who do marry wait until about
the twenty-seventh year. If he is a

The Flying Trapeze in the air.

One OF the most extraordinary and
almost incredible exhibitions of human
intrepidity and daring was last Monday,
the fourth inst, witnessed by the citi-
zens of this place. 1t seemed to be
equal to. if not surpassed in thrilling
and painful interest anything ever at
tempted by Sam Patch Or Blondin in
their widest efforts An individual
named Donaldson tight,r rope walker
aud "magiciau," as he styles himself
who had on the previous Wednesday
made balloon ascension in the ordinary
way (the first balloon ascent of any kind
he had ever made in his life), repeated
his performance on Monday last, but
this time with no basket attached to
his baloon-nothing whatever, in fact,
but common trapeze.
Upon this he seated himself with the
greatest coolness and composure and
went floating away into space, to the
astonishment of large crowd which
gathered to see him. But few cheers
greeted him, as the spectators seemed
spell bound with fear and apprehension.
After ascending to a great distance,
he commenced throwing out a number
of circulars which he had attached to a
hoop below the balloon, and which 10
the clear atmosphere appeared like
twinkling stars surrounding the balloon,
producing novel and pleasing effect.
But this was nothing to what followed
At the height of sume three hundred
feet he commenced balancing himself on
his back on the bar Of the trapeze, and
going through other fearful revolutions.
He then deliberately slid from the bar
head downwards. and catching himself
by the feet, and remained suspended
for several seconds in that awful position.
The appalling sight was one never TO be
forgotten by those who witnessed it. 4
thrill and low murmur of horror
passed through the immense multitude
who were looking on with intense in
terest, aud many hurried away from
the sight giddy and faint. The daring
aeronaut, however, went through his
evolutions successfully, and, regaining
his seat, went soaring rapidly and steadi
ly upwards. When at the height of
three-quarters of mile, he had the as
founding nerve to repeat his perform,
ance at so great distance he could only
be clearly visible by the aid of glasses.
What made the ascent more hazardous
is that the balloon is q very small one,
carrying but little ballast, and with
only light anchor attached to the hoop.
| am glad to say that the aeronaut
completed his voyage safely, although he
once or twice seemed to be in consider
able danger. The tarpeze struck the
roof of Henry Connard's residence on
Fifth street, when Donaldson made q
skillful leap frcm the trapeze and pre-
vented collision, The balloon then as
cended, and came down again on the
other side of the road in field, anc
was about striking the top of tree
when Mr.. Donaldson performed /;
somersault on the trapeze rope, anc
prevented the bar from catching in th'
tree

What Bismarck Says About Austria,
France and Russia.


The Gastein correspondent of the
London Telegraph gives the following
account of an interview with Bismarck /:
Correspondent-Prince, | need not
tell you that all Europe had its eyes on
Gastein, and it is eager to know what
deople do there.
Prince People bathe there and
take care of their health. Well, | will
tell you. The King and myself have
really come for the baths, but we are
only too glad to receive the Austrian
officials, and to assure them of our best
consideration With Austria we had
no quarrel, even when she began her
i'll. advised war in 1866. We beat her
off with the paltry ransom of two milli>
ons. All is forgotten and forgiven, and
we have SO many interests in common,
that we must be friends As such We
receive and are received here by the
Austrlans. We always wish to be
friends. With the French We never
were and never will be friends
Correspondence wonder if you
Germans know how utterly you have
beaten the French, yet how bitterly
they hate you, and how they believe
that they can efficiently attack you very
shortly.
Prince Neither their people nor
their papers will leave US in ignorance
of these facts but il they prove, as
they are trying to prove, they are not
enough beaten, We will do it at once. In
fact there is question even to-day of
our sending more troops into their ter
ritory They are numbering our men
now in some provinces, aud protect
ourselves we can and will France is
always asking for time for payment aud
other concessions from Us, and if We
ask for anything, the answer is, no in
structions. They have NOT man, poll.
tical, civil or military, and they know
nothing The other day We would have
given way on the question Of the ratii.
cation of the frontier, but they blum,
dered it, and the time Is past.
The correspondent then spoke oi
Russia. NJ De Bismarck utterly con
fides in the good faith of the present
Emperor, a man'of good works, VIII,
has not yet completed them, notably
the railway systcm--a man essential!
Of peace Russia, too, is so vast ;
country that further extension of i
will weaken it. Yet the railways ar,
the point.
Correspondent-Russia must eithe
fall back on her centre Or extend he
skirmishers; at any rate she must d.
something. France would buy an
alliance at any price. She is in the 81
per cent, category. Russian Crane
Dukes have spoken strongly of tn
future, which Europe must fear.
Prince-I comprehend; but tn
heir to the throne is never the sam

the Grand Dukes are echoes wthou

Here the Prince had to go drivin
