Large Pork Transactions.—The
Chicago Inter-Ocean says:
“ Messrs. Plankington, Armour &
Co., of Milwaukee, have the credit of
making the largest sale of mess pork <
ever reported in the West—20,000
barrels seller July at $13, to Messrs.
Wm. Young & Co., of this city, on
July 4. Previous to that time the
largest trade on record was 10,000
barrels, sold by Col. John L. Han
cock to Messrs. Gilbert Pryor & Co.,
at $25, about three years ago. Some
little anxiety has been expressed in re- 1
gard to the stock of mess pork in the
West, now that the direction of the
shipments are toward this city. From
the best information we can obtain,
the stocks are estimated as follows :—
Chicago 90,000, Cincinnati 72,000,
Louisville 15,000, St. Louis 20,000.
New Orleans 26,00 Milwaukee 12,-
000, Missouri and Mississippi river
towns 20,000, in transit for Chicago
7,000—total 268,000 barrels.”

NEW LAWS.
Tilt:
legislature at its last session
pissed two laws which everybody should
know. One is, that when a planter gives
i merchant or cotton factor a lien on any
nropurty or for supplies t<> make his
crop, that if said property or crop is sold j
and not applied to the payment of said :
debt, such n kitty p irty is liable to be 1
put in jail for one year.
The other law is to the effect that
III per cent, interest is collectable by
law when inserted in note.
Also it has been decided by the Supe
rior ( otiris that verbal liens are as good
as written liens when the tacts can be
proven.

ues until October 8th, 1872. This
Exposition will attract to Louisville
thousands of people from every section
of the West and Southwest, and an
opportunity will be enjoyed of examin
ing the evidences of the great progress
made in this country iu the arts, in
ventions and manufactures. Nearly
every State in the Union will exhibit
its work, and consumer and manufac
turer will be enabled to judge of the
wants and resources of the country.—
Reduced fare on railroads and steam
boats has been arranged, and ample
hotel accommodations secured for all
who attend. The Louisville Exposi
tion Building covers nearly an entire
square in the heart of the city, is built
of brick, and will seat on the first floor
alone nearly 20,000 people. The nat
ural beauty of Louisville at this sea
son of the year, her perfected arrange
ments for entertaining her visitors
economically and agreeably, and the
opportunity of seeing the businessmen
of the country—the men who arc the
basis of its unexampled progress—will
attract all classes to the Exposition

of Arbitration occurred through the
necessary re-examination of English
law on the question regarding the con
struction of private sea vessels in Brit
ish ports, and also investigation as to
whether the British Admiralty used
sufficient diligence in preventing these
vessels from going to sea. Of four
cases advanced, England repudiates
three, and in the 4th she contends that
the Admiralty acted promptly, al
though the police hestitated to tnku
the proper steps to prevent her de
parture.
The court is also considering the
question of allowing interest on
amounts awarded. It is stilted that a
majority of the hoard an- unfavorable
to such allowance. It is regarded as
probable that alter careful investiga
tion of each case the Tribunal will fix
the amount of indemnity to be paid by
England at a gross sum. Charles
Francis Adams preserves a firm atti
tude in maintaining the claims of the
United States. The conciliatory dis
position universally manifested by the
American representatives commands
much admiration, also does their assid

legislature is evidently opposed to
making new counties.
The bill repealing annual appropria

against rejieal, and regretted that the
Society did not receive $10,000 yearly.

Senator Schitrz states in his St.
Louis speech that two friemls of the
President approached him on the sub
ject of the Dominican treaty. They
communicated to him the great desire
of the President to secure his support
of the treaty, and assured him that he
could have in return any patronage he
wanted. It seems that some St. Louis
partisans are rather sore under this
statement and have telegraphed to
Washington, Long Branch, or wher
ever his Excellency may he, for a
denial of it. We have the denial
already, and then we will sec what we
shall sec. We have entire confidenc
that it will turn out as did another
celebrated case in which Grant played
a conspicuous part. We allude to his
surrender of the war office to Stanton.
Johnson wished to test the constitut
ionality of the Tennre-of-Offiec act in
the courts, after the Senate had de
cided that Stanton should be restored,
and the only way to do it was for Gen.
Grant—the Secretary of War ad in
terim—to resist Stanton’s reinstate
ment and thereby force hint to appeal
to the courts. Gen. Grant professed
to be in full accord with Johnson, and
suggested to him this mode of proce
dure. Under this promise, Johnson
rested easy till he learned that Grant
had handed over the keys to Stanton
without even a protest. Of course,
Johnson was indignant, and charged
Grant with had faith and a forfeiture
of his word. Knowing Johnson’s
unpopularity with the Radicals, to
whom he was looking for a Presiden
tial nomination, Grant flatly denied
that he had ever made such a promise.
Johnson soon brought up his batteries
and silenced Grant’s gun. He proved
by four members of his Cabinet that
Grant hail lied, and right there the
matter stands to this day. It is a
matter of record that Ulysses’ word
wou’t do to bet on.—Courier Jour
nal.
Gen. Pleasanton has written to
Schurz, confirming the statement of
the latter, and says if the President
denies it lie shall regret it, but it will
not be the first time the country has
witnessed the defective character of
the President’s memory. This from
one who has been commissioner of in
ternal revenue, under the President, is
rather severe.

The follotriug letter apj>ears in the
New York Democrat:
From 1831 to 1834 I was carrying
on the business of stereotyping at 216
William street, and most of the time
was employing a great many composi
tors, not a few of whom have since
earned a large share of fame in the
world. From the days of Franklin
even to those of Greeley the compos
ing room lias graduated its full quota
of the men who have distinguished
themselves in the history of the coun
try. Why shouldn’t thc
be incorporated, have a faculty, aid j
thc authority to outer degrees?—
Why shouldn’t it make LL. D.’s as
well as Old Harvard ?
It was in 1832 or 1833, I thiuk,
that being at one time much in need
of more compositors, I asked those in
the office to let the fact be known at
their respective hoarding houses.—
Among others who applied for work
in response to this call was a queer
looking chap brought in by one of the
hands in the office. He was of rather
more than medium height; his hair
was almost white, his face quite so,
and entirely beardless, and he walked
with shuffling and uncertain gait.—
He wore a very old white hat, and
fustian pantaloons which did not cotne
down to his boots, and these complet
ed a personalty which I had never
before met with in a compositor, and
turning to Seymour, who brought him
in, I inquired if that fellow was a
compositor. He replied, “ He’s a
queer-looking fellow ; but they say he’s
a good workman.” Being too much
in want of help to be very particular
about the personal appearance of a
compositor, I gave hint a ease and
copy, and you may judge of my sur
prise when I tell you that his weekly
bills exceeded by from thirty to fifty
per cent, those of the other composi
tors by his side who were on the same
work. And what was cquall remark
able, no matter how rapidly he picked
up the type with his fingers, the stream
of talk that rolled from his tougue was
uninterrupted. He talked incessantly.
M hen lie made out his first bill I
learned that his name was Horace
Greeley.
In those days he was a compositor,
and lie was a good one. He set type
rapidly and made a clean proof. When
lie was a young man he did his work
well, and now that he is an old one,
and there is a big “ take” ahead to
give out, I propose that we give it to
him.

The Murderer of Palmer.—In
Gainesville, oil Sunday, we heard that
the murderer of Mr. Marmaduke Pal
mer has been arrested, and is now in
jail at Cleveland, in White county.—
It was stated that the party has con
fessed that he murdered Palmer—that
he did it for pay—and that he has also
murdered two or three others, for
which he was also paid. The name of
the man arrested wc did not ascertain.
It is to be hoped that the news is
true. Mr. Palmer, as brave and true
a man as ever lived, the readers of the
Sun will remember, was waylaid aud
assassinated in the most cruel and
murderous manner, and society will be
benefited and will rejoice at the con
viction of the man who committed the
crime. If, as was reported, he claims
to have been hired to commit the aw
ful crime, it is hoped that he will_re
veal the names of those who hired him,
that they may share in the punish
ment, as they shared in the murder.—

Thc Profits of Sheep Husbandry in
thc Sontb. ;
I have intended for some time, giv
ing you a short article on my favorite
hobby, Merino Sheep, but concluded
to wait until after wc had shorn our
sheep, so that I could speak from the
facts of the profits of the sheep busi
ness.
From the close of lambing time last
year, we had about three hundred
sheep, consisting of what we consider
full bloods, (as they were descended on
both sides from sheep brought front
the North,) high grades and all sorts,
down to a few half bloods. These
sheep were pastured on uncultivated
fields just as they were left to rest,
without any preparation, until the corn
fields were opened in the fall. They
were wintered on turnips, cotton seed
and barley straw, with an occasional
turn on the fall oats and barley, when
the land was dry enough, which w is
not very often, as the winter was
usually raiuy. The lambs were drop
ped in December and January, when
they, with their dams, were allowed
the run of a clover field, part of each
clear or dry day. Our grass came in
unusually late last spring, so that we
had to feed longer than usual, but I
am confident that our sheep have cost
us not over one dollar a head for the
entire year, from May to May, inclu
sive of lambs, their feed is included
with their dams.
In May we sheared two hundred
and seventy-three, (the flock having
been reduced by sales, death and mut
ton, to that number,) yielding sixteen
hundred and eighty-four pounds,
(1684 lbs.,) over six pounds each, and
we have about one hundred and twen
ty-five lambs. These lambs are worth
twice the cost of keeping the flock ; but
say they pay expenses, we certainly
have the wool and manure, clear, and
the latter is quite an item, to us, worth
I think, one hundred dollars. Al
though this is much more than we
make in any other way, in proportion ia ,he mo,t
to investiment and labor, yet it is not
up to the full capacity of a full blood
ed flock. While a common sheep will
only give you from one-aud-a-half to
three pounds of coarse wool, their
lambs by heavy fleeced Merino rams,
will about double the yield of their
dams, and gradually increase in weight
and value as they grade up to the Me
rino. We sheared twelve ram*, eight
of which were small yearlings, which
averaged ten pouuds, varying from
eight to twelve and three-quarters.—
I mention these details, to show what
has been done here, on what may be
called old field pasture in summer,
with tolerably fair care and feed in
winter. Most of the labor has been
done by my two little sons, under thir
teen years old, and myself. During
lambing time they need almost con
stant attention day and night. Near
ly all that work I f l'<* myself; *
