Well, now, Sam, comes the juice of the thing, which I asahnre you Is entire y konfiden- •hial. Old Jack Jnlarky lies got leven begs of cot to anc right smart plunder; nod rigid here is the juice. Old Julerky lies got s gel-one ge*, jest one, end nary a male son ia the world; end old Jnlarky can’t live two weeks—hearn his doctor say so; had a big popaUptik fit yistidy, the biggest sort of one, end it was the sek- ttnd time, next to the last—one more will popelep his daylites oat, and suddenly depart him from these vale of tears.

The prospect for lau^ prices Is afeo just as good as those that have rated daring the season, for the demand is still unabated aud cannct be filled by the slock in the country. Yet, in New York, there is a larger amount of cotton at this hour, than there ha* been it any time for five years. The other merchant, says that toe com trade ha* been active during the' week; that Huff has sold an immense quantity at <1 25 per trasbel, and the snpply I* equal to the demand. A physician re marks, at another table, that there ia no need for a scare at the Small Pox, because neariy every body in the city U protected by vaccination, and otherwise. Also that there are few cases of the disease amongst the whites. An unn^Mary fright amongst the people who trade at this point, has caused them to avoid the city, but the very great increase of business apparent during the put week, evinces the fact that people arc becoming sensibly leas fearful of a shadow. The pleasant and balmy air of the past few dsys, have given new life to every thing, and made the season as pleasant as Spring. A fsst driver and horseman propose* to bet that Capt.

Maroa’s Coi bt.—His honor did rather a mall business yesterday: A couple of ebony imps—Eugene and Joe—for indulging in a little "fist-and-skuU” encounter, turned over to the city treasurer $5 and costs, each. i The Wholesale Tkadk or Macox.—Lately we' devoted one beautiful, spring-like day to a tour amongst the exclusively wholesale houses of this eity. Seated in the principal entrance of J. W. Fears & Co’s immense grocery establishment on Third street, we watched with much interest the unparalleled quantity of good* that the house received. Whilst Mr. Fears was checking the varied receipts of the drays and wagons, that crowded the street about his storehouse, a man proffered to purchase a few pounds of nails. lie was answered by the remark, that four hundred dollars would not buy one pound of nails in that house. The explanation was, that the firm hav ing long felt the necessity of an exclusively wholesale grocery house in Macon, resolved to establish such an institution, and that it was their pride to know that they had succeeded in doing so. Wo noted the receipts of the day. As an evidence of the unwonted prosperity of this city end its enormons trade, we will rehearse the fol lowing list of articles received and in store; 500 bbls. flour, 400 kegs nails, 100 bbls. potatos, 500 bags shot, 130 kegs powder, 300 boxes star can dles, 100 bbls. A, B, C sugar, 200 reams wrapping paper, 50 cases potash, 300 Western reserve and Hamburg cheese—the sales of which amount to from 50 to 100 boxes daily—200 bales Ky. bagging, and as there is little in the market, there is lit tle probability of supplying the demand, 67 bales gunny bugging, 300 coils of rope, tobacco, buckets, seives, etc. We concluded that J. W. FEARS A CO.’S was an immense institution, es pecially as we could hardly get in a word edge ways, on account of the pressnre of business ond the never-ending tide of country dealers, who were jobbing there.
