FLouR.-Tuesday the Wagon Price of Flour
did not vary materially from our quotation Of
Monday. Considerable Shenandoah Flour, prin-
cipally manufactured from new heat, was re-
ceiyed and taken at from S, 90 to S 49,, the arti-
Gle was dull from stores: for lot in store Sd
quarter of about 600 bbls the best offer that could
be obtained vas S7a though it is probable less
than S 10 to $ l2k would not have been accept
ed-subsequently sale vas made of 200 bbls,
100 new wheat flour at five dollars, and one 9th,
and 100 bbls old wheat, at S, l2a-in the alter
noon another lot of 100 bbls fresh ground flour,
manufactured from old wheat, was sold at 19a
and other small parcels, we suppose, at about the
same rates. Also leo bbs new wheat Four at
516s.3
Yesterday, the receipts were light; the wagon
price of old wheat Flour IS 06, and new wheat
Flour 1ei S l4a. We were not advised Of
any sales from stores; l6 % was offered for
new wheat Flour. and not accepted; old wheat,
fresh ground, can yet be obtained at l2a. We
have been under an impression, for some weeks
past, that prices would give way; but, with a
small stock and moderate receipts, the least de-
mand has tendency to advance the price.

The death of Mrs. Porter, the estimable wife of
General P. B. Porter, formerly Secretary Of
War, has caused unaffected grief among our citi-
zens. A little more than twos years since, she
was the ceutre Of attraction in this city. Where
yer she moved, she seemed to cast about her a
spell which captivated all hearts, At her soirees
there was no dulness for she was the moving spirit
diff'using cheerfulness and animation throughout
the scene. Nor was her mind less accomplished
than her manners. Inrellect found in her kim
drid grace; so that while she had a fascination
for the gay, she had an equal charm for the grave,
The spell is broken; the fascination is over; the
charm is annihilated. Just in the maturity Of
life-before age had changed feature or married
an expression of the countenance, OR chilled the
ardor of affection. or bunted sympathy, or de-
stroyed the buoyancy of character, or even les
sened the Establishments of hope, by sudden
blow she has been stricken from the list Of the
living. CONSERVATION minsles itself with our
sorrow: and while we weep and bow with humble
submission, we also treube and adore.-ibid.

wrxr.-Thc celebrated Hoffman
considered wine universal medicine.
He recommended it for weakness of
tile stomach, ,obstructed liver, ,fatulence,
stone and gravel, depression, and all
the infrmities Of age. An old French
writer describes the Germans as a
melancholy people, which disposition
lie attributes to the want Of this bcver-
age. Fermnlius says that swine is to
the human body what manure is to
,rees--it forces the fruit but Injuries the
trees" and therefore it is argued that
as gardiner only applies manure
when it is wanted, so wine should on
ly be used when needed.

THE AMERICAN FLAG.

When Freedom, from her mountain height,
Uhfurl'd hor standard 10 the air,
She tore the azSre robe OF night,
And set the stars Of glory there
Sho mingled with its gorgeous dyes
The milky bsldfic Of the skies,
And striped i.s pure celestial white
Vito sfrsakings OF the morning light;
Then, from his mansion in the svn,
She called her eaelc bearer aowA,
And gave iuto his mighty hand
The symbol Of her chosen land
Majestic monarch Of the cloud,
Who rear st aloft thy regal form,
To hear the tempest trumping loud,
And seo'the lightning lances riven,
When stride the warriors Of the storm,
And rolls Tho thunder drum Of heaven
Child of the Sun to thee It's given
To guard the banner of the free,
To hover in the sulphur smoke,
To ward swayihe battle stroke,
And bid its gieamngs shine afar,
Like rainbows on the clond efwaf,
The harbinger Of victory.
Flag of the brave thy folds shall fly,
The sign ofhope and triumph high
When speaks tho signal trumpet tone,
And the long limo comes cleaning on,
(Ere yet tho life blood, warm and wet,
Has dimm'd the glist' bayonct,)
Each soldiers cye shslIbrightly turn
To whcse thy meteor gtor;es bnrn
And, as his springiug steps advance,
Catch war and vengeance from tho glance
And when the cannon mouthings loud
Heavo in wild wreaths the battles shroud,
And CORY sabrcs rise and fall,
Like sheets Of fame ON midnight's pail
Thcre shall thy victor glancos glow,
And covering foes shall sink beneath
Each gallant arm that strikes below
Tho lovely messenger Of death.
Plag Of tho seas on ocenn's wave
Thy stars shall glitter DER the brave,
When Death, caseeriBg on the gale,
Sweeps darkly round the belIed sail,
And frightod waves rush wildly back
Before the broadsides reeiing rack,

N.pofrON'S MIDNIGHT REVIEW.


The following is a version Of celebrated
,sr,nan Poem. The beauties nrc great.
NAPoLgoN's MIDNIGHT REVIEW.
At midnight; from his grave,
The drummer woke and rose,
And beating loud the drum,
Forth on his round he goes.
Stirred by his fleshless arms,
The drumsticks patty fall;
Fe boats the loud retreat
Revoille and roll call. H
So strangely rolls that drum,
So decp il echoes round,
Old soldiers, in their graves,
To life start al the sound.
Both they in farthcst north,
Stiff in the ice that lay,
And who, too, warm seposo
Beneath Italian clay.
Beneath tho mud Of Nile,
And 'nosih Arabian sand
Their burial place they quit,
And soon to arms they stand.
And at midnight, from his grave,
The trumpetsr arose
And, mounted on his horss,
A loud, shrll blast he blows.
On airy coursersthen
The cavalry are seen;
Old squadrcns erst rcnowhd--
Cory and gash'd, wecn.
Beneath the casaue their blanched skolls
Smile grim and prosa tlsssr air,
AS in their bony hands
Their long, sharp swords they bear.
And at midnight from his tomb,
Tho Chief Hwoke and rose;
And followed by his staff, ~
With slow steps on he goes
A little hat he wears,
A coat quite plair has he;
A littlc sword, for arms,
Al his left side hangs free.
Ger tho vast plain, the moon
A palcy lustre threw;
And the man, with tho little hat,
Tho troops goes to review.
The ranks present their, arms,
Deep roll tho drums the while;
Recovering then, the troops
Before tho Chief dekis.
Captains and Gen'rals round
In circle formd appear;
Tho Chief to the first, ~ord
Then whispers in bis ear.
The word goes round the ranks,
Rebounds along the Seine
The word they give is--FvGnee--
Tho answcr---S Saiate Helene.
'Tis there, at midnight hour,
Tho grand review, they say,
Is by dead Cesar held,
In the Champs Elisses.
