Mr. Barty, for fear he would not have a better oppor- tunity, suggested two amendments, which he proposed to effer at the proper time. The first refers to the man- ner in which contracts for butter and cheese [not sausa- Under the general law thoy are in that ies which are required to be contracted for artment, and given to the lowest bidder.

There is an actual saving of nine thousand dollars per annum. Another amendment he designed to submit, was with respect to the coal heavers and firemen, who receive from eighteen to twenty dollars a month, whilo the sailors receive but ten ortwelve. The object was, that when a fireman or coal heaver gots sick, and a sailor is detained to do his duty, the sailor shell receive the compensation of the fireman or the coal heaver. This would satisty the sailor. It would prevent whatis called skulking. SOMETHING ABOUT THE WaR.

Porn | Pacxina. —The Lawrenceburg (la) Register of the 23d states that 8,600 head of hogs have been pack- ed at the regular pork houses in that town, and about 1,000 head at the several provision establishments, mak- ing 10,000 head for the serson, against 16,500 head last season. The Eaton (Preble county) Register of the 21st instant, states that only 7,600 head of hogs have been acked in that county this season, against 24,100 head season. The number of head packed at St. Louis to January 6th was 20,000. The whole number last year about 31,090. The 20,000 head isa full average of the number packed at that point the three previous years, and it was supposed it would be increased some six to ten thousand head after the 6th. There is an evident de crease in the quantity of pork put up throughout the Went this year, as compared with last. To}what extent, however, iS impossible that any one should yet know. Calculations of price, based on any presumed per cent. of falling off, must, therefore, be extremely unsafe. Family Provision Market.
