many such Mr. Kelly was honored Poor Kehy
was attacked seriously by gout and could not be
carried by his sagacious pon-'y to Mrs. ’s
nor to Miss ’s; and as there did not appear
any chance of immediate recovery, the poney
was sent to friend TattcrsaU’s. Here it was re
commended as being remarkably quiet, any timid
gentleman might ride ’t. It was accordingly pur
chased for the Rev. W. T. O , at that time
in a bad state of health, and who had been or
dered by his physicians to take equestrian exer
cise. The invalid clergyman was not a first
rate rider, and Michael Kelly’s poney was of
fixed and observing habits, and of his own accord
regularly trotted up with his reverend owner on
his back to several doors where it was anything
but reputable to be seen. There he wailed ha
bitually for his master to dismount. The Arch

“ Tom, nsword with you.” “Be quick, then. I’m
in a hurry.” “What did you give your sick
horse t’other day]” “A pint of turpentine.”
John hurries home and administers the same dose
to a favorite charger, who, strange to say, drops
off defunct in half an hour. His opinion of his
friend Tom’s veterinary ability is somewhat stag
gered. He meets him the next day. “Well,
Tom.” “ Well, John, what is it!” “I gave

as dead as Julius Ctesar.” “So it d d mine.”
Henry Clay’s early Democracy.—Col. John
-1 san stated during his speech ia Harrisburg, that the
I hnt time he ever remembered taking off his coat
I to fight, was with Henry Clay against the support
! ers of the alien and sedition laws. He said that in
argument Mr. Clay wielded a battle axe, while he
I could only handle a tomahawk; but of late j-ears,
| said Col. J.,Mr. Claj- and myself have been on op
| positc -odes. I must, howevei, say, that he is the
I pride of Kentucky, and although we hope to carry
\ the State next fall, it looks like hoping against
I hope. — Penn. Inq.

Sugar. — Louisiana. —We have no transactions
of importance to notice in this article during the
[ last three days. Some few parcels have been ta
ken for Mobile and the upper country, besides the
sales to the city irade, at prices within the range of
our previous quotations—say 40 54 cents. The
demand has become rather limited, but it is proba
ble that more business would have been done had
it not been for the unfavorable state of the weath

tions on plantation.
Molasses. —Some further parcels have been re

from the Levee, at 17 018 cents gallon, in hols.
No transactions on plantation.
Flour. —ln our last report we quoted Superfine
at §4 25, remarking that the maikct presented a
decided tendency to a furtner advance, which we
now find lias teen realized. The parcel of about
500 barreD fresh, which we mentioned as having
just arrived per steamboat, was sold in lots at $4
0 4 50. Subsequently a further parcel of 1200
barrels, which constitute the total receipts since
our last, came in by Hat boats. Os this lot 1000
bar.els were taken on speculation at $1 50, on Sat
urday. On vonday small sales were made at $4
624 0 4 65; and yesterday all the transactions we 1
could learn of were at $4 75, among them a lot of
about 7UO carrels from store, for saipment. The
stock is now extremely light, and some holders are
asking $5 for icsh flour. There are no transac
tions in sour flour, except limited sales to the ba
kers at 3 50 0 3 75.
Bacon. —The demand is very limited, but our
quotations are firmly sustained for good quality,
the stock of which is now very light.— We quote
Canvassed Hams at 10 0 11 cents, uncanvassed do
83 0 94,Sides 74 a 8, Shoulders 5 0 s^.
Lard. —Transactions are still confined to limited
sales for consumption at 10 'S’ 11 cts. Some few
strictly prime lots would be taken for shipment at
11 cents, but the stock of this description is held
at higher limits.
W hiskey. The demand has fallen off, and has
now become quite limited. Prices, however, re
main as before quoted—say 25 cents ga'lon for
Rectified and 23 cents for Common.
