Foreign orders from various parts of the world are coming in; but what is still better, as indicat- ing 9 permanent improvement, the home trade is ina far more prosperous state.

As the supply of Kentuck S:emmed is likely to be short this season, we may look for some further advance, but the prospects for Leaf To- bacco generally are unfavorable. Turpentine meets with a steady inquiry, and although the stock is still large, prices are maintamed, it being nearly all in the hands of one house ; we quote 6s 91 a 6s for tair quality, and 6s 1d e 63 84 for good, at which rates about 10,000 barrels were soldin August. The consump: tion appears to be on the increase. ‘Tar sells readily at 108 6d @ 118 per Darrel ; the stock is moderate and ecarce- ly any left in first hands; the recent sales consist of at out 3,700 barrels at 108 94 per barrel, Montreal Ashes have been taken to some extent lately by the trade, at 238 9d a 24s for Pot, and 25s 6d a 26s 6d for Pearl.

Cheese, U. 5.—Since our last this article hi little worthy of particular observation. The: one public sale, chiefly of remnants of old imports, much out of condition; the prices realized would not lead to apy correct judgment as to the state of the market. We have had a few importations of the new make, but the quality has been by no means superior. A really fine ar- ticle would meet a ready sale at extreme quotations. Mid. g and low qualities are not much inquired for. We do not alter our quotations for fine, as we have none ina the market, but repeat that really fine would realize the ex- treme, ifnot a higher price. Fine, 62s a 54s. Middling we quote 4634433. Ordinary 895 a 44s Duty 103 64 per cwt, with 5 per cent added. Becf, U.8.—The irish cure becoming more and more scarce, the attention of our dealers is directed to American in a proportionate degree; notwithstanding this the mar- kethas been rather dull on account of the uncertainty which exists about the onnual y, contract, which is usually made public in August, and varies from 13,000 to 16 000 tcs each of beef and pork. The quantity now declared is ouly 600 tes of each. It is surmised that is all that is wanted for the season, ‘ge stock of old being still in the sto: while it isalso asserted that govern- ment, having paid too high a price last season, are deter- mined to wait the result of the prospect and importation of American before contracting; to us the latter appears most probable. The general quality of what is already on the market, although superior to the Irish, commands 53 per tos less, on account of the prejudice against Ameri- can, which we are happy to say continues to decrease. Since our last our imports are 10 tes only. Our quotations are as follows: No. 1 Prime, (in bbls of 200 Ibs) 42. 485; Mess 50 a 62s; Extra Mess and Family, 62a 663; No. 1 Prime (in tes of 336 lbs) 75 a0; Mess, 85095; Extra Mess and Family, 10) a 107s 64, in bond.

Prices remain firm, say Prime 37s a 40s, and Mess 41a 46s per bbl. Duty 8s per ewt, with 6 per cent aided: Lard, U. 8.—The demand for lard continues to increas and prices are very firm, with an upward tendency; which we have no donbt will rise considerable as the winter season approaches. Our quotations are : inferior, 36 a/34s—middling, 353 a 36s—fine, 333 e 40s percwt. Duty 14s per cwt with five per cent added.

Stare or Trape—Mancuesten, Sept. 4.—We have great pleasure in noting an increased and increasing bu- siness, both in yarns and goods, since our last, and at higher prices even than quoted last week. The stocks of nearly all qualities and widths of printing cloths are cleared out, and very many manufacturers are engaged for all they can preduce for the next six weeks or two months, whilst others are refusing, in the present advan- cing state of the market of the raw material, to contract fer tuture delivery at the current rates. Rocupate, Sept. 4—Though the market has not been numevously attended, there has been a fair business done in undyed goods. ‘The prices continue much the same as they have been for afew weeks back. ‘The wool dealers complain of the limited quantity of basiness done in their line, as the manufacturers buy only for immediate use.— Prices are statiouary. Lexps, Sept. 4.—Scarcely so much business has been done for some few weeks past, which seems chiefly to arise from the short mpply In middle and low clothes very little is doing, at previous fates. Buyers have been scarcely so numerous as last week. Leicester, Sept. 4—We cannot report any thing new in our market. Hands have in general full employment. The glove branch is not quite so steady as it was, but ope- ratives have generally full employment. The worsted spinning factorie: busy. The fancy trade is much the same as for some time past. ‘The cut up hose branch is briek; operatives seem expecting some advance in wa- ges in consequence. Huppensriexp, Sept. 4 Heavy goods of inferior qua- lity were chiefly in request in our market, suitable for winter wear. Buyers were moderately numero’ nd a fair business was transacted. Many are looking for a good export trade this season, which we hope may be re- alised. The westher Ser can wih heer Hatirax, Sept. 4.—We can still report a very good busi ness doing in our market, both m manufacturing and spinning departments. Wool is firm, bat in warp hogs we csitnot notice any improvement.

Cottons— Market active, ihe sales last three days of past week 9000 bales, and a further advance of | a 2ton U. States mid. Sales however, less the present week, although they still continue rather brisk, but the tating off in demand may be ascribed mainly to the re. cent cee eperations, and to the tenacity of holders who seem inclined to raise peal ensions. The firm atti- tude, coupled with a general feeling of confidence, which has been increased by the favorable tenor of the advices to 8th inst, and the encouraging accounts from Liverpool, have imparted fresh life to speculation, and there appears to be every prospect ut further improvement, Imports of cotton this month 13,807 bales; sales 49,660, included that held by speculators, (about 7000 bales); advance same pe- riodf6a6on Am ord and mid, and {12 0n superior.

Sept 2.—Immediately on the receipt of the advices from New York to the 16th ult, which reached us on Thurs day last, in conjunction with very healthy, accounts from Liverpoo}, our market at once assumed a most animated tone, and @ large amount of business wus dene at xn ad vance of 2f to 31 for ordinary and mirldiing sorts of Ame. rican cotton. Yesterday, however, the demand abated, and the sales did not exceed 20.0 bajes, but the trade clo- sed firmly.

Our cotton sales on the contrary, amounted to only 35 bales Louisiana at 63f, and 80 do Cypres at 14f. We understand that about 40 casks Annatto have been sold at the rate of 46 per 60 kilogr: in bond, which does not at all astonish us, as from Bordesux the article has been offered us some time ego st 40f.

Silbert, 95 Chambers street, was entered by thieves, and a small ladies’ gold watch, and a number of silver tea spoons, and knives and forks stolen. About six o’clock last evening, acolored boy named Jorn, in the employ of our police reporter, while returning from an errand, perceived two colored men in the act of offering to sella ladies’ gold watch in a second hand dealer’s shop in Leon- ard étreet, and presuming it to have been stolen, informed officer Barber, who was passing at the time, and who immediately arrested the men and took them to the police office. On searching them the teaspoons and knives and forks thet had been stolen were also found, and they were fully committed onacharge ot grand larceny. They gave the names of Henry Wells and George Laurens. Tue Accipent In THE Arsrnat Yaro.—The boy John Daley, who was accidentally shot in the right shoulder in White street on Tuesday, while leaning against the fence, by the discharge of a rifle in the arsenal yard, died on Wednesday evening at the City Hospital. A full and complete examination of all the facts attending the acci. dent was made before a coroner’s jury yesterday, who finally returned a verdict “that deceased came to his death accidentally by ‘he discharge of a rifle, by the hands of Henry J. Storms.” Mone anv Mone Buratanirs —The dry goods store of Hetty and Abby Oakley, of No.11 Carmine street, was entered by burglars on Wednesday night, and robbed of $200 worth of mo: sseline de laine, pongees, bombazines, &c. Thisis the same store that was robbed some months since, and for which James Crump was tried and acquit- ted, owing to the negligence of the persons at the upper police, who prepared the papers forthe trial, No bur- glars arrested in this case. Where are the ears of our ‘Aldermen, that they do not establish a patrol police. Anornen.—On Tuesdoy evening,the stove store of Jordan L. Mott, 264 Water street, was broken open by burglars, and the iron chest forcibly entered, anda silver cup and a number of silver medels that had been awarded to Mr. Mott by several societies as premiums for his stoves, were carried off. The money usually left, had been removed by the bookkeeper before closing the chest, or it would have shared the same fate. The burglars es- caped. Where were the watch and when are we to have a patrel police. Yer Avnorwer.—On the same evening, the boot and shoe store of William Agate, 183 Chatham street, was broken open by midnight robbers, and alarge quentity of boots and shoes stolen. No burglars caught, nor have re yet a night petrol police who would have caught them. sp Yet Anornnr —The dwelling house 673 Broad- was also entered on d aiarge quantity of clothing siolen but no robbers were arrested, nor have the Fathers of ou yet given us areport on police reforin, although it i# the month of September, ang they have been neariy half their term of service in ef- fice. Drowxrp 1x 4 Cisters.—A child, aged two years, the son of Rodoey Lugar, of 90 Avenue D, was drowned in a cistern on the premises of his father, on Wednesday morn- ing. Hehadbeen playing in the yard, and was missed wut 11 o'clock. Search was made and continued until yesterday morning, when his body was found at the bot. tom of the cistern. The coroner held an inquest on the body, when it was ascertained that the cistern top was only eighteen inches in height, being just a convenient size to allow a child to tumble in. x Bunctans.—Yesterday morning, about 5 o'clock, ichael Clancy, of 25 Chambers street, observed a boy attempting to a the door of the plumbers shop of John 8. Whigam, of 80 Ceatre street, and also a couple of youngsters with a hand cart, standing on the sidewalk op- posite. He crossed over and seized the rogue, but his as- Sociates escaped. The boygave his name as James Martin, and said he was about 15 years of age, born in Liverpool, and resided with his mother, at 101 Broome street. On the opening of the store in the morning, by Mr. Whi- gam, he tound that six dozen brass cocks, valued at $100, anda boring machine, valued at $80, had been stolen, as also the key of the basement of the shop, found in posaes- sion of the boy Martin. The burglars had succeeded in entering the shop by digging away the dirt under the fence of the adjoining yard, then crawling threugh and forcing open the rear window of the building. After securing the key of the front basement door, they then obtained the handcart, and would have removed ail the valuables on the premises had they not been arrested in the act of entering the door with the stolen key. Here is another striking reason why the city watch should either be kept on duty till sunrise, or a patrol police es- tablished to relieve them. Daowsep Fematx.—The body of an unknown female was found drowned at the foot of Jay street y morning. She was dressed in acolico frock, asda lack silk hood was feund near her. She my ene near forty years ef age, with grey hair, and had been in the water several days. * Ropaep ix 4 Baornet.—A man, who says his name is Edward Fanning, got corned, and took bes ore ata house onthe north east corner of Centre and Anthony streets,on Wednesday evening, asd while ina snooze with one Mary Mood teary was tumbled out of bed, beat and bruised, and robbed of $34, by John Carpenter, alias Bergen Jack, Wm. Hymes, and the woman combined. The three were crrested and fully committed. A New Onveans Rocve Annestrp —For the past se- veral days private watchman Peter G Cole, has obserued aman lurking about the vicinity of Pearl street and Old Slip at all hours of the we ar and his conduct, therefere, excited the suspicions of this most efficient wetchman, who accordingly made preparations to secure him in some act of crime. Yesterday morning, about five o’clock, he therefore took a station behind some boords opposite the dry goods store of 8, & E. Peck & Co., 18 Pearl street, in order to watch the movements of this prowler, and prosently found him standing in front of the store of the fessrs. Peck, apparently busily ,engaged in examining the lock of the street door. He immediately rushed from his hiding place, and seized him.gOn searching him atthe police, a piece of wax intended to take a mould of the wards of the lock, so as to manufacture a key, and seve- ral small pieces of wood, to be used in measuring the di- mensions of the lock, were found in his pockets. During this investigation, he was recognised as John A. Cantor, alias Julien Seymour, lias Q. Guilford, recently from New Orleans, where he eluded the ends of justice by es cape from the officers. He was locked up for further ex- amination;and will be indicted for the attempted bur- is one among the many hundred instances t that the morning hour after the watch , is the one selected by burglars to com- mit their depredations. Drowse: Yesterday morning a man who wasina sitting posture on the string pice of the wharf between Reetor and Carlisle streets, accidentally fell overboard and was drowned before aid could reach him. His bod was recovered soon after, but had not been recogn ze He appears to have been about 30 yearsof age, with black whiskere, and was dressed in a dark {rock coat and pants. The coroner held an inquest on the body, which will be ivftat the dead house during the day. From Trxas.—The Sarah Barnes, et New Or- leans, 12th inst. brings Texas papers of the 4th. The Scylla arrived at Galveston from Vera Cruz, on Saturday last, bringing despatches from the Mexi- can Government. Little is known of their contents. It is reported that none of the prisoners have been released. These, however, it is said, will be re- leased as soon as notice can be given by President Houston that all Mexican prisoners in Texas shall be released. Santa Anna it is said, complied with all the de- mands of the Commissioners of Yucatan, and that province by barely acknowledging the sovereignty ef Mexico, acquires all the privileges of @ iree State. The President has returned fom Bird's Fort, and was expected to arrive in Washington on Sa- turday, the 26th ult. We have been iutormed that few Indians attended the Conneil There is but lite doubt that a majority of the members of Congress elect, are friendly to Houston, although i! is quite probable that Com. Moore will be remstated in his position in the Navy, after which he will immediately resign. It veems from the addresses of the Congressional candidates in the eastern counties of Texas, that many of them are in favor of an entire repeal of the duties on sugar, coffee, iron, salt, powder and lead, and on all articles used by the planter and the me- chanic in conducting their respective occupations. Some of the candidates are also of opinion, that the expenses of the government should be reduced to $100,000, as they consider this as muchas the people of ‘Texas at present are able to pay. Deatn ov Racorver Burtys.—Thel remains of the Hon, Paul Bertus, who died suddenly on Sun. day evening, from the effects, it is supposed, of poison administered by his own hand, were interred yesterday at 6 o’clock, P.

The Foreign Intelligence---Ms. Bennett and Mr, O'Connell. a Oar columns are so well filled with foreign intel- ligence, brought by the Caledonia, that it is unne- cessary todo more than call the attention of the reader to that portion of our paper. Mr. Bennett’s letter, which is copied from the London Times, will receive a general perusal, for the conductors of many papers on this side the Atlantic, who gloried in the brutality and uncourteous conduct of O’Con- nell to a stranger, have but whetted the public ap- petite for that production, while they designed to produce other effects. That letter meets with the highestcommendation of the English press, and so far as we have heard, during the few hours that have elapsed since its arrival, it meets with the most un- qualified commendation here. It is an able, clear, manly, and convineing letter—but by O’Connell it will doubtless be met with coarse and vulgar abuse. This, however, will not disturb the equanimity of Mr. Bennett’s mind. There is no man, however pure, no created being, however exalted by the possession of all those qualities that grace humanity and dignity and enoble man, that can escape the dire displeasure of the ‘* Liberator,” if he ventures to thwart the Agitator’s purposes. The highest and the best in England have been the objects of his vi- tuperation; and his own countrymen here, besides various other classes, have not been permitted to escape. In euch company itis not painful to submit to O’Connell’s revilings, especially as they are but as an idiot’s tale, ** full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.” To-morrow we shall publish another letter from Mr. Bennett, being a continuation of the series which he has commenced since his visit to Eu- Tope. Case or Jonn Resp, avtas Cuinton.—This man who had been arrested in London on the charge of being the person who committed the large forgeries on the Southern banks and the house of Jacob Little & Co. of this city, was still confined in Lon- don on the sailing of the Caledonia, awaiting the action of the Government and the American minis- ter. The Queen’s trip to France had retarded ac- tion in the matter, as it was supposed he would be surrendered on the evidence already presented, and sent immediately 'to this country for trial. An at- tempt had been made to obtain his release by bail, but on a hearing before three magistrates it was re- fused. Have they no “straw bail” iu London, nor Tombs skinners? Here he would have been bailed out and in Texas months ago. Justice Lowndes and officer Ben Hays, who went out to recognize lum, were in five health and spirits, and the lauer inteuds on his reiura to give our city fathers and po- lice magistrates such evidences of the complete London police system, as will make them open their eyes with astonishment that we Yankees can be so beat in such a simple matter of city govern- ment. Youne SaunpErs.—Indictments have, we believe, been found against this young rogue, as also his as- sociate Ragee. We understand they will be ar- raigned to-day to plead to the indictments in the Court of General Sessions. They will, in all proba- bility, enter a plea of guilty, and thus save the delay and trouble of atrial. The missing money supposed to have been received by Ragee has not yet been accounted for. Mmuitary Force on THE Frontigr.—The U. 8. troops on the Maine frontier at Forts Kent and Fair- field, have recently been recalled. The impression is, that the importance of this force is not fully un- derstood at Washington. A large meeting was called therefore on Saturday evening, in Bangor, toconsider the subject. Gov. Kent presided, and made a short statement of the importance of this force in preserving the peace, and protecting the Madawaska setlers, whose good will towerds their new government ought to be conciliated if possible. Important From Haytt.—We have news from St. Domingo te the 2Ist ult. The delegates of the people of Hayti were to meet at the capital on the 15:h of September, to revise and make a new constitution. The people are fully confident in the delegates of their own choice, who are to represent them, being men ot probity, and have signalized themselves by their heroic deeds, their inflexibility in defending the rights of the people, and the expuleion of Boyer. They will not betray the sacred trust they have un- dertaken. GeneralCharles Herard has completed his mili- tary march through the principal parts of the island, and has silenced all parties. Late rrom Mexico.—The Rebaud, from Tampi- co, at New Orleans, brings papers from the former place to the 31st ult. The Boletin of that day has along article deny- ing the rumor of the closing of that port. The ru- mor had no foundation. In further contradiction, it isstated that an annual has been established at Tula, a city of some importance, and nearest Tam- pico in the interior. ‘The port of Tampico isthe entrepot whence mer- chants of Yucatecos, Quretaro, Durango, Guanjua- to,and other departments, are supplied ; and it isea- ay to imagine the damage which the closing of Tam- pico would inflict upon them, driving them to Mexi- co or Vera Cruz for their commerce. The annual fair at Tula, decreed by Santa Anna, can be furnished only from Tampico, which con- sideration would prevent him from closing that port. The Boletin declares there is no ground for believ- ing that Tampico wiil be closed, and invites foreign- ers to bring their merchandize thither. Brig Piutvs.—Captain Benjamin Sears, late master of the Plutus, arrived in the brig Gardner H. Wright, from St. Domingo, and reports that on the 25th of July the P. was wrecked on the reefs of Cattilineta. All hands were saved, together with a part of the cargo, in a damaged state; sails, rigging, and cables, all of which were transported to St. Domingo and disposed of. A Haityan brig of war had sailed from St. Do- mingo for Port au Prince with fifteen Spanish ere- oles on board, the conspirators ia the late rebellion. They will probably be shot. Yetiow Fever at New Ont vans —At the Cha- rity Hospital, on the} 1th and 12th of September, 31 yellow fever patients were admitied, 10 were discharged, and 10 died. Remaining, 53 yeliow fever patients, Navat.—The U.S. steam frigate Missouri, from Norfolk for the Mediterranean, was spoken on the 12h ult, lat. 87, lon. 51. NavaL —We learn that a detachment of upward ot 200 men will leave the U. S_ ship Pennsylvania, onder the command of Lieut. Chaplin, to-day or to- morrow tor the U.S. frigate Savannah, fitting out at New York.—WNorfolk Beacon, Sept. 20. Court or Cuancery.—Assistant Vice Chancel- lor Sandford, (by appointment of the Chancellor, will hold a term at Auburn, on the 4th Monday of October next, for the hearing of the following causes :— 1. All calender causes pending in the 7th circuit. 2. Calender causes of the 2d and 4th classes pending in the 6th circuit. 3. Second and fourth class causes pending before the Chancellor, in which the solicitors on both sides reside within fifty miles of Auburn. Newspapers in the 6th and 7th circuits will confer a favor on the bar by noticing this. Works or Hannan Mong.—We have received from the Harpers, and have for sale at this office, the fourth number of their complete edition of Han- nah More’s works. {t forms the closing number of the first volume, and includes ‘Practical Piety,” and the Tragedies of Mrs. More.

Mownt Hope—Meditations among the Tombs —Ro- chester and its Prospects—The Great State Agri- cultural Fair, Eprror or Tne Hrratp,— Celestial moraing. Visited, after breakfast, Mount Hope Cemetery, the Greenwood of Rochee- ter. Itliesa mile and a half south of the city, on the east bank of the Genesee, in a luxuriant forest of oaks, chestnut, hickory, maple, &c., ina perfect labyrinth of hills and ravines It was purchased by the corporation some three years ago, and laid out into lots as a burial ground. The population of the place has become already very respectable, not- withstanding the healthful position ot the city; but we must consider that Rockester is a place of 25,000 inhabitants, with a transitory population of several thousands more. There is an arched entrance tothe cemetery, of wooé, surmounted by an Egyptian column, which I think is in bad taste. The arch should be of stone, neat and simple, the columns hung in solemn dra- pery, and the figure of Hope reclining on her anchor the crowning ornament—the solace of the living— the guardian genius of the dead. To the mght of the entrance, in the side of the hill, enveloped in wild flowers and shrubbery, and shaded by lofty trees, is a public vault, where the bodies of persons dying in the winter are deposited until the ground can be opened for their permanent burial. Oa ano- ther hill is an obelisk, with the ever sacred urn upon its pnnacle, “ Erected tothe memory of John Ea- ton and Geo. B. Benjamin, jr., who were killed at the conflagration of Curtis's Building, on the mora- ing of the 26th August, 1840. Peace to their ashes; they have served mankind.” ‘The monument is eighteen feet in height, and was erected by the fire- men, assisted by the Corporation. It was put up some three weeks since, with an imposirg proces- sion of the citizens in attendance JohnVolk, a superior sculptor, a native of New York city, has the credit ofthe work. The readers of the Herald will rember that, two years ago, when the monu- ment here to Lieut. Boyd, was consecrated by a speech from Gov. Seward, a doubt existed as to the identity of the bones placed in the wooden urn as those of Boyd. It is now generally believed, from the report of an examining committee, that these bones, thus preserved, are those of vn old she bear and her cub, and not of Lieut. Boyd. The woodea urn is so far split by the action of the sua, that these precious relics are visible through the crack. Lient. Win. Boyd was captured, and barbaronsly dissected alive by the Indiana, at the time of General Sulli- van’s march through the Genesee couatry during the Revolution, His descendants at Rochester are wealthy and respectable, and intend having a marb!e monument to his memory, bones to be dis- pensed with. Among the other memorialshere of the dead, isthe modest tomb stone of the wile of Dr. Moore, of the Society of Friends. The Quakers, it ia known, repudiate monuments as they do hard fighting; but such was our worthy Doctor’s affection for his consort, that he ventured to trespass upon a custom forbidden, as savoring too much of worldly pride. There isa square block of stone of a suitable brown color, upon which is affixed a bit of white marble, and upon the top of this, covering the whole surface, is the simple inscription in raised Gothic letters—‘ Anna Maria.” ‘The grave is of an oval form, with three other oval graves, clean and green, alongside. There is a large marble slab midway the descent of the tun- nel, over the mortal remains of ‘Reuben Manley, Printer,’ with a printing press carved over his name, and an ornamental border around the title page. It is worthy of remark as being the first piece of marbleI have ever seen over a printer’s grave in my life. The tunnel 18 a circular basinin the hills, ofabout 50 feet in depth, covered on i's sides, with trees, shrubbery, fern, and wild blos- soms; you descend a gptral gravelled walk to the bottom, which walk forms a series of terraces, the whole anatural amphitheatre, seats and all. The diameter of the basin at the bottom is about 12 by 20 feet—the circumference at the top is lees than 200 yards—it is a curiosity to an escaped prisoner from Nassaustreet. Ascending the highest of the conical hills of this most beautiful of American graveyards, naturally considered, a view is at your command, worthy a journey from Albany ina line-boat in the middle of July. To the north there is a bird’s eye view of the city, and ten miles off, blue as indigo, you catch along sweep of Lake Ontario, which over an irregular line of woods, would at first be mista- ken for a range of mountains, so distinctly does it rise into the relief of the horizon. Thirty miles to the southward a range of mountains towers upin the outline of the landscape, alandscape of a culti- vated campagna as large as the State of Delaware. At the foot of the hills, to the west, is the Genesee River, but from this quarter the smell of aneighbor- ing distillery dissipated the charm of the scene.— That distillery should be brought out and blown up. Mount Hope is a sweet spot. I stand before a green mound, where one, young and beautiful, from the living, was taken away, and laid down in the cold earth. Sacred to her be the tree that over- shadows the place of her rest. Sacred the war- blers that linger among the rustling boughs—and the wild vine that creeps with its fruit at her feet. Lone—lone—silent and dark is her grave—but when the wind whispers in the oak of the sorrow of the living, she can hear, when a sister is laid ather side; when the birds come again in the spring; when the violet opens its blue eyes to the smile of the sun.— For is there not life and communion among the dead. Unconscious of all and invisible but to these they have loved, do they not meet under the mid- night m9on and tell of the dream that is gone? But this tom foolery will never do in the world —for flour hasraised, (wholesale) to-day to four dollars the barrel. I met Jast night in turn, the Hon. Joseph L. White, of Indiana. He is on his way from New York, homeward. Casually mentioning his late defeat, he congratulated himself that he bad ran ahead of his ticket, with ill disguised mortification. He was one of the very best men of the Jast House of Re- presentatives, in public and in private, and 1 conde! with him on his anfortunate turn of juek. He w return with his family to your city, where he de- signs pursuing his profersion of the law I encountered aaother distinguished character this morning, George H. Munday, the prophet, as I ama Christian. He was posied at an eligible cor- ner, head combed, beard trimmed, eyes bright, and selling his papex asfast as he could make the change. He gave me a copy. He cuts and slashes right and left. In aa article on “Seduction,” he aske:— “What led to the lamentable seduction of the un- wise Miss Mercer? Was she without her murder ous BusTLE? Not she.” So it seems that Heberton was fairly taken ia by the bustle. George looks re- markably well, but he carried a scent of onions with him, frem which we may infer he had had « mere vegetable breakfast. Went up to the exhibition ground of the Agricul- tural Fair this afternoon. It isa field of ten acres, closely boarded up. Few articles of exhibition have yetarrived, Mr. Jer. Brown, of Orleans county, had three noble steers, each as large as a modern sized Rhinoceros. In the booth for seeds, vegetables, fruits and flowers, there is as yet a meagre collec- tion. The season has been dry until lately, and there has been no spirit of competition. There were a few beetsjas big and black as a negro’s leg ; a few radishes as round as a washerwoman’s arm ; ‘a few onions that would have made a Dutchman’s eyes water; a tobacco plant in a tub, which plant stands 6 feet 6; main leaves two fvet in length, al- together worthy of the Roanoke bottoms It was raised by H. D, Langworthy, Eeq, of this city. There were any quantity of patent ploughs onthe ground, and a big stud horse passed up the street this afternoon. Lookers on are arriving from every direction Mr. Van Burea is expected to-night. ‘the cars two ee
