It may not be out of the way for me to say a word about our schools, as I am not now engaged in teaching, and receive no compensation for my services, higher than the satisfaction of seeing our youth make rapid improvement. This is the sixth week of the term, yitli 312 scholars in seven schools, not yet perfectly graded, fur the parents were left the privilege of grading their own children, to a great extent, 1 am ip all the schools nearly every week and can see an increased improvement each successive week. Without casting any reflections on any former teacher, I can ireelv say, we have never had such good schools before, either public or private. : In the education of children, two things are to be looked at by every parent \ first, the quality of .the school; second, the expense.

The Louisville Courier states that the prices of hogs for packing are unsettled though holders generally are firm at five cents net, with a few sales at 42 cents, and an offer of a lot yesterday at the same price. A sale of 700 hogs was made in Harrodsburgh at $3 90 per hundred lbs.

The Arctic arrived out on the morning of the 12th. Her news had a’ favorable effect upon the market. Letters from Constantinople say (hat in general the Eastern question is closely examined at every point,and the conclusion is, that there is no escape from war. Russian agents are actively engaged in Turkey, in stirring' the people for an in* surrection. The Sultan of Turkey announces that if the Russians do not evacuate the Danuhinn principalities, that he will consider it a case of war, and act accordingly, but the Turkish troops will not cross the Danube. The proclamation of war is posted on all of the mosques. The Sultan has invited the combined fleets of England and France to come to Conetarjttnop.e. The Black Sea is to be free, to neutral vessels.

Flight or & 'Nox—Great, sensation has been caused in .Galicia, in Spain, by what is considered a great crime by devout nun from a convent af Compoalellat ? Afhnn in the Carmelite cohvenrbfahe place let herself down a few nights ago r from her cell by means of towels and napkins sewed together and formed into a cord. The descent must have been attended with danger, though the nun took the precaution of tying knots at intervals in he rcord. The moment the escape was known, a search wafc made alter her, both by the police and gendarmery, but, no trace of her could be discovered; and it supposed that she succeeded in reabhing Corunna, and in embarking on board a foreign vessel. She was only twenty-iwr years of age, belongs to one of the most distinguished families of Galicia, and is remarkable for beauty and talents.

Trade iu Apples and liny. The Hickman Argus speculates upon the agricultural advantages of South Western Kentucky, especially for the profitable cultivation of Apples and Hay. Both of these products ripen sooner in that section than further North, and being convenient to a shipping point they are consequently first in the New Orleans market, where they command the highest price paid for such articles. Hay, at Hickman, is never worth less than $15 per ton, while the Apples shipped from that point the present year, will bring the products $50,000 As an instance of the profits accruing to Apple traders, the Argus relates that Mr. R.
