vanced trlfie, after the late SIX hours dinner
- but as soon as the fumes of the wine
had evaporated, 1t fell again, AS flat as a
! founder
Cherokee Treaty Modification Stock
| This stock improved little after the iudg-
Is
was misunderstood. This stock has declined
OF late, IN consequence of a report that the
Cherokees are about to petition Congress TO
remove the Georsans from the state. as the
Chcrokees have the oldest grant of the soil.
The Georgians obtained their grant from
king George. in the eighteenth century;
whereas, the Cherokees obtained theirs from
king Adam, in the year one.
Benton Anti Bank Phobia Stock-Since
the able dissection Of The gallant colonel's
speech, there has been no demand for this
et5ls, except in the remote parts of Missouri.
American System, or Clay Stock.-Rapid-
! ly advancing all over the Union, the back
bone of the nation being pledged for the pay
ment, both of the principal and interest
| Public confidence in this stock is daily in
creasing, and large capitalists are making
heavy investments therein. This stock, like
Aaron's serpent, will soon swallow up the
| rest.
| Philadelphia Cutterg-Knives and Forks
of a quality eqael TO the best made in Eng
land, are made by Mr. Barton, III Phladel-
| pha. His penknives are alse Of an eAcellen,
description and are much in demand. Up
wards of thirty skilful wofkmen have lately

ing employed in this Establishment.
Senior PEpgAzA, late President Of the u
nited States Of Mexico, arrived in this city a
day or two ago, and took lodgings at Gads-
by's--.Nat Jour.
Emigration Two thousand six hundred
andseventy seven settlers arrived at Quebec,
from the tifIh to the eighth Of the present
month.
Restoration of ANCIENT .2hlcns-In num-
Der of the Courier de Smyrna, which was
| forwarded TO US by one Of our correspondents
some weeks ago: are several articles which
we had hoped to have been able earlier to
notice. One Of them relates to plan pro-
posed by French engineer, for the rebuild
ing and restoration of the city Of Athens. A
letter written By NJ Fauvel, which appears
in that paper, presents the various difficulties
which such an undertaking would be sub
ject to.
He remarks to the engineer that his would
undoubtedly be the honor of first attempting
the laying out the streets ef tkat ana:c..z,it and
renowned capital Tacc""--..ng TO the rules of
lconyenlen"e, and by straight line. Obstacles
| in any general plan Of this kind he remarks,
would inevitably be encountered in the an
Gent edifices, which must of course be re
spected If regard is to be paid to the mo-
dern churches, the proposed design must be
abandoned "Witbin circle which have
traced on map of the city," says NJ. Eau
vel. there are above so churches. So many
of the streets are represented as useless. that
they need not be regarded, but might be cut
across and shut up at pleasure.
Considering all the circumstances Of the
case. however, NJ Fauvel recommends the
restoration of some of the ancient edihces,
aud converting the temple of Thesus to some
useful purpose. after repairing ii; which, he
saws, would not be very expensive. The re-
mains of the Parthenon and the other mon
uments of the Acropolis, however, would re-
ouire an amount Of labor and money which
would deter the greatest sovereign Of Eu-
