CONGREGATION.

Mr.. PITTMAN-A writer in the Gazette, lately,
very properly, complains that, while the corpo-
ration Of AIcZ nidria is wiihdraw wing from circu-
'ia,ion fs one dollar notes, we should be dslueed
by those of the corporations Of Georgetown and
Washington. This epit Qor 1t merits the cpl.
iheD is more peculiarly felt at present, when
many honsekeepcrs are laying in fire wood, for
the winter, purchased from persons from the
sneishboring states of Virginia and MARYLAND.
The short remedy is, to unite and rel fuse The
notes Of The corporations Of Georgtio,en and
Washington, Of all demon nations, and no pcrsous
san effect this measure more immediately than
those who supply our markets with meats and
vegetables. Let them at once refuse these notes,
aud dorm they go--for there is one point on
which the good citizens of Alexandria are unan-
imous--thcy must cat. Besides, to take the sub.
ject in another point of view, we are giving cir

CLIMATE

The great difference in the climate OF
Europe and America in the same lati-
tude is astonishing. In Rome, which is
IN The same latitude as Boston, the grass
IS green all the year round, and olives
grapes, figs and pomegranates grow in
abundance yet the summer heat is nor
SO Indictment as Boston. An American
writer in England impu,cs this disparity
in temperature to the prevailing winds.
tie states it as fact, tina. the governing
currents of air are uniformly from west
to east all over the world, although there
are minor currents Of air proceeding in
other directions. As evidence of tins, he
says passages from America TO Europe
are commonly 10 or Is days shorter than
from Europe to America. When tho
wind passes over an extent of land, it be-
comes heated as it advances in summer,
and more chilled in winter. From these
causes it follows, that the eastern part of
continent like the United States, will
be hotter in summer than the western
part OF continent in the same ATTITUDES,
as France, Spain, SC. The eastern parr
oil France is considerably hotter than The
western and the North West Coast of
America beyond tho Rocky Mountains,
has climate much milder than the At
iantic states, and such as would compare
with the same latitude in Europe.

SUGAR HuIisEs.

The several cases ofyellow fever which
have been traced TO the sugar-house in
Liberty street, have excited in some
persons no small attention. The surprise
and wonder, however, it is presumed,
will cease, we duly consider, how great.
iy establishments of this description con-
tribute TO contaminate the atmosphere,
and assist in the spread of noxious and
deadly effiuvia. Part ofsthe materials
used in the refinement Of sugar, it is well
known, are obtained at the slaughter
houses, and often before used, particular
ly in hot weather, are in state the most
disgusting and offensi.n The writer OF
this has been informed by one, upon
whose truth he can rely, that the blood
made use OF at a sugar-house, has been
observed by him, IN a state, of absolute
putr efaction, SO that il abounded With
worms, visible 10 the naked eye.-It need
not then be wondered at, that in an es,a-
blisment of this nature, situated on the
margin OF the infected district, the air
should become fatally contaminated and
endanger human eXistence--that the Der
sons employed therein, should, from their
peculiar exposure, imbibe so readily the
prevailing disease. When we take into
view the number of these manufactures.

duty 1t is, should bestow some attention
