the industrial and better classes of the poer,
who have been thrown, out of employment

would rather starve• than beg: Visitors say
they find whole families of little childrenett

"Six thonsand :Dollars Lost in a Gambling
Boom."—About a month,ago it was announ
ced, that a poor 'mechanic residing in Cin

telligence .of 'the - death;of .an-unat'd in Balti
_
trio - re, by Which:he - CM - no into: the possessi
of nine thousand -dollars, all irr cash. He
immediately, went. to ; Baltimore, it is,said,
and finding-that' he - could - :net get possession
of the rrioney - ker-'six -months sold his claim:
for
_sBooo .cash; thus losing $lOOO.. -The
Cincinnati Gazette sa'ys:
Overjoyed at the Sticces.s which had,atten
ded him, he hastened to his home'. Five
hundred dollars was - expended the next day,
after his return'in purchasing new furniture,
&c., for his house. The, old,. furniture.was
sent to Woodrpff's,'.and disposed of at ape , _
tion, the whole being sold for $47, such was
its inferior character-. -Walker, with his lit
tle-family, rented a hobse on Longworth street
at three hundred- dollars a year, rand expen- •
ded quite a sutra of- money in having it're
painted and whitewashed. _
Walker feeling himself independent.enough
to play the gentleman, commenced frequent
ing the saloons and restaurants' on Third
street - in•the day time, and theaties at night.
He made acquaintance's -Speedily, and very
liberally treated .there To ,oysters - iaml other
refreshments, and in-return his. new
_friends
invited hitt - vie, '017 .. .ky cards' and
expense.'.The n',ew. sphete, in.whieli he
was enjoying himself so' eclipsed - his better'
judgement,: that' he was 'soon pursuaded-to
visit the ga.mpling rooms.- :At first he won
at nearly every g ante, and accurnulated near
ly $3OO. Night after . night he ;continued
visiting the_se - sinks of iniquity. one.of Which
is. focated .on. Third street, until- he had lost
over six:thousand
. dollars of the - fortune-he
had received but a few. weeks-since: Wal- -
ker. say,.that when he lost four thousand dol
lars of the Money he' ‘vould have stopped,
had he not ekpected to get-the sum back
again - by - continuing the game. He has now,
however, stopped, and has sought redress in
one of our courts 'of justice. Besides, the
fine furniture, Clothing,: &c,, he purchased;
he has only $1,700 of the 58000 left, but
promises hereafter to
is
- at home, and
not squander. -what is left,, but - resume his
daily labor.ancl attend closely to theinterest
and welfare' "ofhis family. 1
PEILADL:TipHIA MARKETS.
The Atlantic's advices are rather favorable
for 13readstuffs, but:, they have had little or .no
effect upon prices— The Flour market is quiet
—a sale of 250 barrels Baltimore was made at
a price not made public, and 150 barrels good
brands of Pennsylvania at $9,50 per barrel—ex
tra ranges from $9,75a10,25, according "to -qual
ity. Ink Rye Flour and Corn Meal no change—
the former is held at $6,50a6,75, and the latter
at $445 per barrel. • •i!
GFAlN—There is very little Wheat offering,
and the demand is limited. Sales of 500 bush
els prime red Ed $2,10 per bushel, and 200 bush
els inferior white at $1,90, both in store. Rye
is wanted at 81,25. Corn is scarce, and wan.
ted—Sales of 5 . 00 bushels new yellow at 92 cents
