Doixt Dcttok.—The levees and concerts given every afternoon and evening, at the Metropolitan llall, are worthy of more than passing notice. Lit tle Dollic Sutton, whose tiny and graceful form, and sweet, winning manners have attracted crowds to her entertainments in the eastern cities, is certainly one of the greatest wonders of the age—a mere atom of hnmanity, and yet possessing all the faculties and accomplishments of persona of the usual size at hernge, aud indeed farsarpass ingmany of more mature years. Her singing is excellent, and her voice, small as she is, can be distinctly heard in all parts of the hall.

Coeoner's Inquest.—The facts gathered from the evidence given before the Coroner's Jury, yes terday morning, in regard to the circumstances at tending the death of the man killed on Tuesday noon,by an the Chicago andNorthwestr tm Railroad, are these: The name of the deceased, as found in hie memorandum book, was Herbert A. Hllle, of Maysville, Ky. He bad but a few hours before entered the service of David L. Roberts, of . Jefferson, who had sent him to the city with a load of hay. On the way he fell in company with Jno. Mattocks, who also hronght a load of hay. In at tempting to avoid bad roads, they had struck across the prairie some distance from the regular road crossing, and Hills' team had succeeded in drawing the load across the deep gutters andrais ingit over the rails of the C. &N. W.B.H. track, but could not get across the Chicago track. The space between the tracks was just sufficient for the load of hay to stand, ami Id pass ing it, the tongue of the wagon was removed by the C.& M. H.H. train, andthc blndingpolc washroken by the passing train of the C.&.N.W. John Mat tocks was holding the team, when the two trains, each leaving at 11.42, were seen approaching. The deceased was on the northern side of the team and hay, and was not seen by any one on the train, ' -until in attempting to run across the track he was struck and killed. The Jury returned the follow ing verdict: “ Thai the unknown man, whose name Is believed to be Herbert A. Hills, was killed by Uie outgoing 1145 train of the Chicago Jb North- •j- . vestem Railroad while attempting to cross the d.l. track in front of the engine, near Ward’s rolling yitii, Thstwcfind upon Investigation that the : carnally was of a purely accidental character, and «‘nt ro blame attaches to the employees of the C ..It ego and Northwestern Railroad Co. ipaay.*’ rrosrckK of Art In Chten^o, /'iitrobns, the well known artist, hasjust finished • o Mexican landscape? with figures which seem < u» of sufficient merit and importance to Indi te a new era in the history of art in Chicago. Itlu rto onr artists have been content to work on utraits. Ihaiy confess -dly para&Uence stands tin? bead ol the portrait painters, not only of the West, but of llii! railed Slates. We have had few landscape painters, ami none, It we remember rightly who have happily combined landscape anil figures. It Is one thing to paint the land or water* scape, another to draw the human figure. Ant re bus,!! seems to ns, has made this combination in fmost excellent manner in the production of two topical landscapes with figures Introduced. The larger picture Is La Tarantula, one of those wonderful groupings of mountains, water, foliage, atmosphere and brilliant figures to bo found only in tropical climates. The scene Is upon the Lake of Tcscoco, in Mexico, some three miles distant from the city of the Montzumas. In the back ground are seen the snowy peaks of the volcanic mountains of Popocatepetl and Istacclhnatl, atthe base of which range the glacial andserrated ridges of the Sierra Ahnalco, bathed In the warm, gor geous light of a tropical sunset. The painter has grappled boldly with the difficulty of mountain and atmospheric treatment, and has wonderfully succeeded In delineating physical effects and bring ing ont lucidly the idea of distance. The lake, an expanse of smooth crystal water, stretches in the foreground, upon which a flower crowned barge is being propelled by Indians. A group of cavaliers and senoritas, dressed in the gaudy and j graceful Mexican attire are upon the barge, engag ed in the graceful dance which gives name to the picture. They, as well as the scenery, were sketch from life, and are drawn with great freedom and faithfulness. In the lower right corner the painter has thrown in ahankof the wonderful and brilliant tropical foliage with slender arching palms crowning it and reflected In the mirror like waters beneath. An air of Indolent, dreamy repose, visi ble even in the languidly graceful figures marks the whole picture. The smaller picture, which was purchased by one of onr prominent citizens before it loft the easel, is of a somewhat similar nature in its gener al treatment, but dlfferiug In details. It is etylod El Fcscatore, and is from a sketch made on the Lake of Chaleo, with mountains lu the distance and a lake in the foreground. The figures arc excellently drawn and the landscape finished to the smallest detail. The dreamy mystery of the twilight is tempting, and one can readily forgive the stolen interview and delicate little amour going on, in view of the character of the surroundings. We are glad to know that one of these pictures has already been secured to remain in Chicago, and we trust the other will be also. The manufactured pictures from the auction room and meretricious daub from abroad have toolong attracted us and our money. And by this, of course, we do not include ’legitimate works of art, but rather that we should m ict discourage genuine home talent by throwing away money on copies which arc turned off by machinery at so much per square yard of canvass. Art is in is infancy in Chicago. Let it be encour aged. We advise our art-loving readers to call at the Art Gallery, corner of State end Washington streets, and sec these pictures. An Alleged Swindle, Two weeks ago yesterday, a man named Arza F. Brown came to Chicago for the purpose of dispos ing of 150 barrels of apples. The apples did not ar rive fox' a day or two after they were expected, and while Brown was waiting for them he formed the acquaintance of A. L. White, who formerly kept the Girard House In this city. He told White of the expected arrival of the apples, and the latter induced him to stop with him, saying that it should cost him nothing. White said that Chicago was overstocked with apples, and sales wore doll. Brown offered the lot of 150 barrels to White for SSOO, of which sum ho wanted $-250 paid down. White introduced Brown to one C. H. Dudley, whom he represented to be a heavy capitalist, woitb $40,000, which sum he had cleared during the past year, while in the employ of the Govern ment. Dudley was disposed to do tha magnificent, tho stupendous. He told Brown that he owned pro perty here and property there, and a certain hard ware house in the city was using $15,000 of his money. Dudley strongly recommended White to Brown; told him he was good and responsible, and that SSOO, half cash down, was a big price for the apples. So Brown sold the apples to White, get ting, however, but $225 down, that being all the money that could bo raised, and giving a worth less note upon a party in Indiana, for the balance of $275. Brown soon ascertained the character of the note. A friend told him that “it was utterly worth less, the maker of it not being worth a cent.” Brown found White and complained of the matter, and the latter coolly informed him that the apples had been shipped to one Brooks, in Memphis, and could not be got at, but he would pay him the full amount in thirty days. Brown gave up the note, and White gave, him an order upon Brooks, in Memphis. The next feature in this complicated swindle was presented by Dndley, who represented that he was going to Memphis, and, obtaining an order from Brown for the money, which order bore White's acceptance, gave Brown a receipt for the same. Brown suspecting that matters were not all right, especially upon being assured that White had gone to Memphis, and that he need not expect to hear from him again or from the apples, ap plied to Superintendent Rohm, who immediately detailed a sharp detective upon the case, which re sulted in finding both parties, and the apples stored in different parts of the city. White and Dudley bad their examination yesterday. Dudley was discharged in toto and White upon his own re cognizance. Was Not Posted. The Committee for procuring subscriptions to the Peninsula Railroad, in canvassing the city yes terday, called upon a merchant, who declined to subscribe an jibing because be had a bond on tho Appleton Extension of the C. & N. W. R. E., which betook to help that road along, for.which be paid 60 per cent., and had not even received the interest on It. He was asked to produce it, and on doing so, all the coupons were found attached, not having been presented at the Company’s office for payment when due, the money being ready for him promptly, every time. One of the Committee bought the bond at 95 per cent., and cashed the coupons—so that the mer cliant obtained 9 per cent, annual interest, and 15 percent, advance on his subscription in aid of the C. & K. W. R. R., and doubtless felt ready to offer the same kind of “material aid** again. Mr. Og den stated, on ’Change, that in his opinion, sub scribers to the Peninsula Railroad securities could in two years, realize a similar or greater advance In the market value of the security, and were per fectly sure of the interest being paid, which will be about 9 per cent, per annum, at the rate at which they are offered. The Sons Htswngcr of tho Northwest. The above is the caption of a new and neat little musical paper, published by Root & Cady, and ed ited by the musical typo, Herfry C. Work. The first number is before us, and in point of typo graphical execution cannot be surpassed. It con tains a pretty little dedicatory poem by G. F. Root, original sketches, musical chit-chat, and five quar tettes for the fireside, from Mr. Root's pen. Al though starting late in tho musical season, we have reason to know that some of these Messen gers will be devoted to criticism of a taking and piquant nature, gossip concerning singers and home nmsic generally, and other matters of an in teresting character.

M. Higgins, the enterprising music publisher, at No. 117 Randolph street, is just issuing a circu lar of his old established music house, the pioneer enterprise of its class In the Northwest. The cat alogue is a handsome pamphlet of thirty-two pages, giving a sketch of the enterprise itself; a brief biography of J. H. Webster, whose composi tions arc the exclusive property of this house, and a list of one Auudred and fifty other composers, whose pieces, Issued and copyrighted by Mr. Hig gins. have given him a catalogue which would do honor to any music publisher in the country. The circular alto contains several pages of new music. The circular and catalogue will be scut free to any address, postpaid, that may be forwarded to Mr. Higgins. The following preface to the circular will interest our readers; [FromH.M. Higgins* Quarterly Circular.] In placing in your hands the accompanying cir cular of the oldest music publishing house in the Northwest, a few words by way of preface may not be inappropriate. Here stands the column, the re sult of years, of substantial growth. It will not be wholly uninteresting to turn the pages of His tory, especially as that history includes the most remarkable period of the material and esthetic growth of the West, to follow back to !ls*ori gin. the music enterprise which has reached its f resent magnitude in the hands of U.

Twenty years falls light ly on an old settled community which lias counted its centuries. Twenty years In the his tory of the West lias seen its expansion, from a wilderness to an empire. In 184: i, H. M. Higgins was a music teacher, and in that capacity trav eled over the prairies, holding here and there his singing classes, and always popular and suc cessful. enrolled among his pupils those to whom would be largely given the training of the Young West. Chicago was then bat a flourishing town, only freshly recovered from the crushing blow of ISJ7. Elgin, Aurora, Joliet, Freeport, Rockford, Galena, Janesville, and other now flourishing In land towns and cities, that gem the prairies, were then onlysmall settlements, orslill in embryo. Mr. Biggins’ mission to the new country was a welcome one to the people. His name has become a household word in thousands of homes. On such nn acquaintance both with the country, the people and the science he had made his specialty, was founded, twelve years ago. his present Music House. It has kept even pace with the growth of our city. At first, a light but promising list of publications, a few instruments carcfnhy chosen to avoid an overstock, limited premises demanded by an economical outset, were all proof of a deter mination to succeed bv solid and careful growth. This last has been realized. The Establishment at No. in Bandolph street, would be an honor to Broadway.

It willhe difficult to reach manyof them, but I shall do the beet I can. 1 have nothing but what is wanted, and nil receive me with thankful hearts, i.i.d the gratitude displayed fully repays the labor. Private soldiers have paid (and are now doing so) SIO.OO per barrel for potatoes. I propose to put tho price down, 1 am writing In haste, to send by private hand toCalro.

The following is an extract of a letter received by P. L. Underwood, this morning, from Lieut. Col. A. S. Chat)bourne, commanding the 85th, 2d Board of Trade Regiment, at Murfreesboro. As It relates to the same subject, It will be Interesting In this connection: “The throe barrels of dried apples from tho War Committee were duly received by Mr. Luff. and have been equitably distributed among the officer# and ini'iiof theregsment. They were the more ac ceptable as it is difficult to procure either fruits or vegetables In this region, find should tho Commit tee or any of our friends at homo ever wish to make us a present, they cannot do bo well ns to Bend vegetables or dried fruit. X am sure much of the sickness In this army is owing to the want of proper diet of vegetable food for the men.” 188 CHICAGO UNION CLUB. Its Constitution and By-Laws.

Tho cavortings of gold have too often led speculators into an expensive dance, to justify them in following it very closely. The Wheat market ruled firm, and wo note an advance in prices of 1®1&c per hushel—with sales of No 2 Bed Winter at $1.25; Rejected Red, $1.11; Nol Spring, $1.19#(?p1.22; No 2 Spring, f1.06® 1,11; and Rejected Spring at 87(£92c—according to location and the date of the receipts.

Forgood lots of prime city, there was a good inquiry at lO&c, but holders generally were asking 10>s'c. Freights were quiet—only one vessel he : ng re ported at 9c for corn to Buffalo. Tlic gold panic, which made quite a blockade for a few days in the channels of trade, has died oat, hut the absence of decided success in army more, meats has chased away the obstructions, and the current of business runs strong again. It still re mains certain that the rebels must he cleaned out before the bottom prices can be reached; and even then, the South need all the manufactured goods we have on hand, at any price, and have cotton to pay forthem. These facts the trade, at least, un derstand, and consumers wijo would not bo de ceived, must not expect the bottom of the market to fall out for some time to come. Manufacturers at the East made no concessions at all during the late fluctuation in the general mar ket. Our own merchants yielded alittlo, in sym pathy with the decline In gold, but the market hero is Arm again,and there is less anxiety to sell than before the panic. Within a few days the leading houses have been doing a larger business than ever before at this season, which may be regordedas an index of the trade generally in oar city. Fork Packing in St. Paul. [Special Correspondence of the Chicago Tribune.] St. Paul, Minn., March 29,1863. Each class of business commences hero about the time it doses below. Thus the packing season continued through the winter, and closed on the 14th of March. The history of pork packing at St. Paul, of re cent origin, has a very brief record, as follows: Hogs 1857-58 ybo 1669-60 1,000 1862-63 2,981 This shows a very fair rate of progress, and proves that tbc Pork trade of St. Paul may ultimately become one of great value to the city and surrounding country. The average weight of hogs packed during the winter was 212 pounds; the average cost $3.88 per hundred; andthcaverage price of packing barrels $1.85, chiefly of Wisconsin manmacture, sent to St. Paul from the St. Croix Valley. The barrels cost more here than at Chicago or Cincinnati, bnt the price of pork was considerably less than ut cither of those points, affording a wide margin for the St. Paul packers. It is believed that the prices paid for hogs in this market, were less than at any other important point In the West, while the average weight, as will be seen by a comparison of the statistics of other places, was unusually large, the average at Cincinnati a s reported, being 203, the excess In fa vor of St-. Paul being eight pounds and a half. Pork Packing; at Milwaukee. Tbo total number of hogs cut during tbc past season were 163,465, a gain on tbc previous season of 85,794. The following tabic shows the full sta tistics on tbo packing: No. of bogs packed 182,465 Average weight, lbs 219 Pounds lard 6,016,707 Average lard, lbs 33 M ess poik made, brls 45,536 Prime mess pork made, brls 7.383 Prime pork made, brls 13,912 Boxes bacon made 12,961 Tbc following comments on tbc season’s pack ing, we clip from the circular ol Geo. I. Jones & Co.: Thu hog packing business at this point for the season just closed shows a very great increase, compared with that of the previous season, ithav. ing nearly doubled within the year. A new feat ure hasbeen the large arrivals of live hogs. Here tofore the receipts have been composed almost altogether of dressed; but tho packers now having excellent facilities for slaughter ing, this branch % of the business will doubtless continue to increase. Notwithstanding the heavy receipts of hogs, a still larger number would naturally have come to this city had there been more buyers. There is room here for a few more good packers. The average weight per hog was only 219 lbs. against an average of 260 lbs in the season of 1861-62. Tbc yield of lard was 83 lbs per hog. against 35 fi>s the previous season. Some of the smaller wnderers put the whole bog into lard, bnt the number not being large, this did not have much influence on the total result. The gain over last rear in number of bogs packed is b3.IM. About one-fifth of the quantity represent ed in the above table as mess pork was thin mess. Bnt little of barrelled pork has yet been shipped, holders preferring to wait for low freights by lake and canal. To leave here about the 25th of April next, some freight engagements to New York have been made at $1.60451.75 brl. The lard was mostly sent bv rail to tbeseaboard as fast asmade, and the stock’left here is but small, not over 4,003 packages. The same is true of middles, the quan tity on hand being very trifling. noopVau fio-obp.m. •7:00 a.m. *10:30 p.m. I&30&. m. +9:<op. m. * The intelligence from Mackinaw relative to the Straits being opened, was by letter dated at that place on the 17lh, to E. A. Franks, esq., in this city, ■which states that the Ice gave way the day previous, and that the passage was free and clear from Lake Mlchigou to Huron. Other letters con firmatory of the above have been received, and boats were daily expected to arrive down from Chicago. Intelligence to he relied nnon baa also been received from Collinewood stating that the waytotbatportis opened, and Georgian Bay Is free from ice obstructions. The same paper also contains the following: The tteamcrForestcr. Capt. Fish, left yesterday morning for Port Huron, and returned again at 5 o'clock in the afternoon. She succeeded in getting within fire miles of Algonac, where the channel was found blockaded with ice from one to eigh teen ftet in thickness.

[From the Montreal Herald.} The chief interest still hinges on the Canal tolls, as the perod is so rapidly approaching for the commencement of business. We hare already written on different occasions on this subject, but it is of such importance that wo cannot help again reverting to it. The question is by what means can the products of the West be most cheaply transported to England.

But the question about the re-imposition of the tolls paral yzed our forwarders, and they feel nervous about making uriuugcmciits. There are two important fuels we may state, should the tolls be re-imposed to the full extent, the Welland railroad would at once open up a powerful competition with tho Welland Canal. Some three years ago, they carried wheat from Port Colbourueto Oswego at 3 cents per bushel, and we believe arc prepared to . do the same' again. Then there is the Grand Trunk bidding highly for the Western grain trade, but the most Important thing we haveto consider, is the opposition on the American canals and rail roads. not that their rates arc as low as ours, but that they arc payable in Greenbacks, which may fairly be considered as a redaction of nearly 50 per cent. We have not been able to-day to collect the positive figures as regards freights by the dif ferent channels from the West to Great Britain; but shall do so in a few days, and again revert to the subject, as It is one of the first importance to Montreal. DRY GOODS, NEW YORK DRY GOODS MARKET, [From the New York Econlmist, 2:th.] Beown Sheetings and Shirtings. —The mar ket bas been exceedingly dull, with both first and second hands. Brokers with outside lota of heavy sheetings have been unable to effect sales at any reasonable scale of prices. Jobbers would reply that they did not want to buy, when lota were offered to them, before prices were named. Lola of standards have been offered at 35c, and in the auction room to-day, before the sale, a jobber re fused to buy 100 bales at SOc, seller CO daya. Job bing prices have not been lower than 40c, but job bers expect to reduce to 37Kc.orposslbly35c.neit week. At the auction sale to-day, 4-1 standards brought 34Kc, 4 months, 2 per cent off for cash, which makes a fraction under 34c net. Seconds brought 33c, same terms. Standard 34 brought Sic, which are quoted by commission honsea at 27Xcnet, and by jobbers at 26Xc. The jobbers will probably reduce their prices about 10 per cent next week, and commission houses will be obliged to follow suit some time after. The sale this after noon resulted better than was generally expected. It bad been feared by some that heavy sheetings .would go to 30c. Bleached Sheetings and Shirtinos.— With the icommission houses there have boon no sales this week, and few lots of ontsldc goods have been able to find a market. Lonsdale 4-4 arc offered by the piece by the jobbers as low as S6c, and will probably be offered at Sic. next week. New York Mills fine 4-4 sold at auction to-dayat3sjtfc, lour months, for which agents and some of the jobbers have been asking 60c, net; 7-8 Waltham X brought 27c, for which jobbers asked 34c; 3-4 Lonsdale, brought 20Kc, for which jobbers were yesterday asking 26Xc. net, and to-day 34c, net. Drills.—Seconds have sold as low as 37Xc- Strifes.— At auction low grades have sold at a decline of lC®l2Kh»t?r cent from late jobbing prices. York were quotedoy the jobbers yesterday as low as B‘Kc, Ticks.—Good ticks are scarce, and will probably depreciate less than plain cottons or poor ticks. Denims.— Low grades at anctlon have sold as low as 160. Jewett City to-day brought 33Xc, which was within 12X per cent of late commis sion prices. The jobbing price of Oxford's is re duced to 37X0. and may be made lower next week. Silesia? and Cambrics.—Wo have no change to make in eilesias yet, but may quote jobbing {iriccs lower next week. Cambrics are offered at ate commission prices. Printing Cloths.— Tho market Is exceedingly dull, and has receded full 3c from the highest pre vious prices. The printers aro universally running out of stocks, and arc determined to buy no more clothe until the print market becomes settled again, and until a demand for goods revives. &1-64 good? could be bought for 16c, and even low er. we think. Prints— The market with first hands is of course quiet during the time of the present panic with outside holders. The prospect of a continuation of the present unsettled state of feeling in the market has determined the manufacturers to stop their works as we stated last week. Jobbers have reduced their prices of some makes of goods tf&lc per yard, but have not yet come down to a basis where country merchants will buy, Gixguajis— Jobbing prices are reduced to 2Gc for Glasgow, 27c for Lancaster, and 2Sc for Clin ton. Foreign ginghams have sold low in the auc tion room. BOSTON DRY GOODS MARKET. [From the Commercial Bulletin, 23th.] The dry goods market is decidedly blue, and rap idly shading to a darker shade. Dealers are all adrift and quite at a loss to determine their bear ings. Indeed, since the commencement of the de cline in gold there has been no reliable market for this kind of merchandize, but now it is simply a myth of the most unsubstantial and imaginary character. Manufacturers who consign goods to commission merchants arc unable to name any ac tual sellingprices, and to undertake togiveenrrent quotation would bo as absurd as to quote stocks of lunar railroads or the sulphur mines of Tartarus. So far as jobbers are concerned—who generally bold full stocks ami and are not under the immedi ate necessity of figuring in tho markets as opera tors—prices are a matter cf faith or fancy, accord ing to individual opinions as to the future course of trade, aadhcnce the former are ns diverse ue tho different shades, of belief in respect to coming events. They arc neither bnyiug nor selling to an extent; hut it is needless to say. perhaps. Unit they lot no good opportunity for trade slip through their Rands for want of a liberal con cession, provided they can realize a trifle above prime cost. Manufacturing agents, on the other hand, mani fest indomitable pluck under the trying circum stances, and seem determined to brave out tho crisis, even if it should involve an indefinite sus pension of bnsinces. rather than concede any re duction of rates. Hence, there is absolutely no trade fiom first hands, and cotton manufac turers are accordingly abridging productions to the nanoweets limit, to prevent an accumulation of stocks. During the past week several of the largest mill* In New England have entirely sus pended operations, and others are preparing to follow snit. They are strong, and for the time be ing independent, having piled up immense profits during the past two years; and are now determin ed to leave the market bare unless their scale of prices is conceded. PHILADELPHIA DRV GOODS MARKET. [From the North American, SSth.] There is no material change to note in the Dry Goods trade, but the market Is very inactive for the season. There arejsome few Western dealers looking round, but they operate lightly, buyers and sellers being apart in their views in regard to prices. All staple cottons are in light stocks, and holders generally are not disposed to make any considerable redaction from the highest point, but some concessions would bo made to effect sales to any extent, if buyers could be found. Prints, stripes, checks, and ticks are also quiet, and prices about the same. Woolens arc held firmly, and the stocks of most kinds are light for the season, with moderate sales.
