A MurderOus ROnaparte,

Prince Pierre Napoleon Bonaparte,
whose death is announced, was a son
of Lucien Bonaparte, Prince Of Canine,
a brother of Napoleon l.. and was
born at Rome September II, 1915. He
passed his youth as an adventurer in
America, Italy and Greece, and COM
mitted several homicides. After the
coup d etat of December 2, 1851, and
the restoration of the empire, he
received the titles of prince and high
ness. In 1871 he shot a journalist
named Victor Noir, and attempted to
shoot Uric Fouville in an interview
held in the princes house. For this
he paid a fine of $4,000. Prince Pierre
was the author of several literary
works, the chief of which is a French
metrical version of Nicolini's tragedy,
"Nsbuchodnosor," 1861. He was APP
pointed an officer of the legion OF
honor in 1868. and the same year re-
ceived from King Victor Emmanuel
the grand cross of the order of SIS.

General Trade.

The meat market is the leading OBJ
ject Of attention at present. Values
are | to &c higher on all cut grades, in
Guiding smoked and dry salt, than
they were FIVE days ago. Lard has ad-
van,ed % to 4Oc per cwt during the
present week, and the feeling here for
hog products Of all classes is unset
tied, with prices all topsy turvy. Nails
have advanced among manufacturers,
and iobbers must also add something
to their price list. Corn and hay are
scarce aud wanted, with prices strong.
Table potatoes are firm, while sweets
are unsettled, with sales at private
terms which invariably indicates
weakness. The frost which extended
more than 2OOmiles south of us night
before last has nipped early vegeta
ton, and to some extent has injured
corr and cotton, especially in Texas,
where the cold was more severe than
hereabouts. Fruit, however, has not
been much injured as far as heard.
The high waters of the river are ex-
citing earnest attention among low
land residents. The swell appears to
be Stacking off in the streams from
which the greatest danger is appre-
hended. AT Cairo yesterday the rise
was l8 inches, and for the two pre-
Tious days it was ten inches. The
Cumberland and Tennessee appear to
have expended themselves, and there
is but little to fear from that direc-
ton. The prospects indicate that the
swell will go to the top rim all the way
below Cairo, aud it will perhaps slosh
over the low PLACES, but it will take
additional rains to keep the water up
and do much harm.

Owe ground of Guiteau's disagreement
with his counsel is that he does not
want his past history gone into to furn-
ish evidence of insanity. That, he says,
has nothing to do with the case. He
wants the Republican party to take
hold and help his case along, furnish the
best counsel to carry HIM through, and
the money requisite for conducting the
case. He says he saved the Republican
party in killing the President. The
party being indebted to him for doing
that, it is only just that it should come
to his defense and help him though out
of his trouble. This looks as If Giteau
intended to try the insanity dodge with
out going far into the past for evidence.
