GOO on the 16th ult. The Beardstown

"Mr. Dore frorn NewYork, and Mr.
VVessen from Ohio, are building a large
slaughtering and packing, establishment,
and making preparations, buying salt, en
gating barrels, &c, extensive enough, ap
parently, to pacK 3U,uuo ftead this season.
Mr. Tinsley is also buying and .preparing
for a heavy business. Thequantity of hogs
alrea'dy. contracted for, and the 'avidity
with which purchasers are still contracting
for, induces us to believe that at least 50,

;?It seems to bean admitted fact that J . the

thaMheir conditibh (owing to an abundant
corn crop) will be very fine; We - under

S2,50 gross. -Purchases for the CihcinnaV
ti market have ranged in Indiana and taken
largely at $2,50 to $75 gross. -The pri

our most experienced packers have, not y et
entered the market, regarding prices too
high for prudent investment. From' the.
larger number will be packed Jiere tKo.

The houses engaged in this business com
mand an unlimited capital for any prudent,

The Ice Machine. It will be seen from
the following, which we copy from the
Cincinnati Gazette, that it is likely that
Ice will soon become one of the staple ar-.

When will wonders cease? v v : '

"The announcement of the d.tscoyery off
a successful process for manufacturing ice,
is by many persons, regarded as a joke.
But jtis sober earnest.' TheexperimentSv
vhich led to the grand Tesult, have been
continued for months ,in this city; all the
machinery has.been made here; and lastly,
the ice itself has been produced, in qiian- .
tities Which show that the thing is neilher ;
a humbug nor a chimera. Jack Frost's
occupation's gone most indubitably;" : '
'The Cincinnati Commercial, comment
ing upon the above, says: ;V ''y'i ;v''; '.1'-.
'We can assure 'our readers, upon the
highest and most respectable authority,
that it is no joke, whatever may have been
thought when tfie article was seen in the
Gazette. A gentleman informs us that he
has seen larire blocks of ice which were
manufactured by this machine in a few
