The number of deaths in Philadelphia for the
week ending the 5h ult. was II ; for the week end
ing the 18th ult. 100 and for the week ending the
10Th ull l26. Of this latter number ~ were chill
dren. The facts have induced writer to remark
with great truth -
One thing is Of vast importance to the health Of
grown people as we'll as youth and children. and
that is, great care to prevent them from eating an,
ripe fruit This is the season when unr'pe anu
half decayed pears and apples make their appear
ance 10 the market. and the temptation 10 eat II IS
so strong, that it requires no ordinary degree OF
watchlulness on the part Of those who have the
guardianship and OF children to keep them from
lit. Scarcely any thing is more unwholsome than
fruit OF this description has greater zen,
idency TO produce the diseases which are most ia'a'
| q, this season, than bad fruit.
We cannot but think that this subject is well wor'
Inv the stretest attention and consideration. by
|watchfulnsss and care, we have reason TO believe
1.-The lives of many children may be saved, and much
distress among parents and friends prevented.

CO. Ills but fancy's sketch.
A liberal Friend in manners plain,
And disposition kind,
While lately chatting with wife Jane,
Thus spake to her bis mind
"What did thee do with thai bank note
gave thee Seventh day, NF
In the receipt book, nothings wrote;
For what then did thee pay!"
ssMy Dear, for aught did not pay,
But stock speculation,
In what called. heard Friends says
HOPES CAavch and Congregation.
And truly he's real friend,'
She said with smiling eyes,
s'And on his word do depend,
That soon the stock will rise"
tIam not of such stock aware,
And thee may know as far,
The Nezv HOPE Stock Of Delaware;
If so, it's not at Par
1t may be that, my dearest Jane,
But give thy wishes scope,
For should it fall-why still tits plain
Thou hast stock of Hope.
No matter then what stock thee bought,
hope thy stock will rise"
Hope so too-Jane iay thought,
Unto the Highest Prize.
We pray it may, and the ladies generally were fort
nate the last class two alone having gained S1500we
purpose having for ladies ecsivcy the next draw
ing Immediately fronting the commissioners, and near the
wheel The boy who draws the lottery shall be blind
fold and in every particular we will endeavor to satisfy,
crafty, and enrich the public and our friends
n il is worthy of remark how equally and fortunately
the prizes were lately distributed and as the next scheme
is on larger SCALE people must be benefited. lt
i also fact that some OF the highest prizes sold in
and though we continued selling prizes constantly 500
and 800 were sold just before the drawing Yet still ouT
experience would recommend early purchase as afford
ing the best chance CT being fortunate. -.
