0TWe reply in general terms to the foregoing
inquiries The citizens of this place have not
heretofore engaged in packing pork for exporta.
ton, but We understand that several enterprising
merchants are making preparations 10 engage in
that business, during this coming winter.


Large numbers Of live hogs have been sold in
this place during past winters, TO those engaged in
curing bacon for expectation. Over 1000 head
were bought last winter for that purpose and
many thousand more were driven to market, far
ther South on Red river, in this State and the in
dian country. One advantage drovers have in
bringing hogs to this market, is that they are on
the route to other markets, If this is found 10 be
glutted.


Pork hogs were sold in this place, last winter,
at 50 so to 50 co per hundred, and we have no
doubt that the same will be given again, and we
believe much larger number could be sold next
winter. Persons driving hogs 10 this place should
reach here between the 18th Of December and the
18th of January.
