Painful, and even melancholy as il often
times may be. how frequently does the mind
love TO turn back upon the scenes that are
gone by. How often are the thoughts drawn.
lnsensIbly as it were, from the darkness Of
She future TO the twilight Of the past-ta
scenes that but family glimmer through the
cold and sombrous lapse of days, and months,
and years! A pleasing melancholy comes,
over the foil soul, as the green spots ON the
desert OF HE" come up before the eve of tho
Inauguration, and ties as strong as those OF
"hFst love" bind US unconsciously to scenes
avhere once conferred all our Joys. Such are
the "reminiscences of childhood and youth:
such are the lorms pictured upon the sunny
surface OF the past-when the heart heat
Joyousy-when every path was strewed with
nowers-when all above was cloudless sky
and when all around US was sunshine! ii
ever man enjoys happiness. II is the prng
time OF life, when his hope FIRST begins TO bud
and blossom. To ms iIIlsive eve the future
appears bright as the visions of an elysian
dream. But soon the frost of disappont
lnent eoues--old age "steais along with ST
lent tread"-and all but the recollection OF
enjoyment perishes.
Still memory. like every thing else connec-
ted with our worldly enjoyment, has its plea

By the official reports this morning, it will be
seen that the Cholera has ceased, if not to exist,
a, least to excite attention. For two days in sue
ces.ion, only one death occurred in private prac
tice. We cannot doubt that the early. aud we
may add the thorough, attention of our authorl-
Ties. and the constant exercise of skill and deVo-
ton of time ON the part of the physicians, chiefs.
and assistants, have been instrumental IN these
things There has been little fear INDUCED by
our citizens. S GG-.
M person would suppose from the external ap'
pearances IN this city that there existed any par
iicuiar cause of alarm,-any the slightest degree
or idea of pestilence There is more activity
there are greater numbers-in the streets and at
the wharyes, than il has been common to see at
this season of the year. With regard to the cho-
efa. care is generally practlsed: but the subject
has otherwise lost all its power over the great
plurality oil minds AZ well az bodies. lndiscre-
ton in eating, or habits OF lntemperance. are
stated to be every where thecauses OF most OF the
instances Of mortality. II might surprise US, IN
deed, if the occurrence was no, so frequent in
all countries and all spheres of life, that ration
al creature will incur the risk Of speedy death in
one of its worst forms for the monentary gra'ifi
cation of the palate. The daily records Of the
Cholera furnish a warning TO every reader, in re-
gard to the use of certain fruits and vegetables.
1t is not fasting, but mere abstinence from sub
stances proved to be dangerous. which IS requir-
ed; and the decrease in the ravages ct the epide-
mic here, warrants the hope that the expedlency
of this kind OF sef-denial will soon cease or be
greatly lessened. We have been much struck
with some articles which we have recently read
i'll Paris papers, wherein 1t is attempted to be
shewn that in the European climate and accord
ing to European experience, when the Cholera
has once, in any city, rushed. as it were, t" a
great height aud then auctuated and declined.

Extract Of letter to The Editor u Gazette. dated
WILMINoToN, August %, 1882.
An explosion took place to-day about noon, oil
one of Dupont's powder mills. | was distant
from the place about six miles, and heard Il very
distinctly. with its prolonged rumbing echo. -
1t was different from the noise which thunder
makes 10 It's character. and was instantly sure,
from the quarter whence il proceeded, that 1t was
powder mill which had blown up; a huge 60
lumn of smoke from the same quarter convinced
me that it was 50. On arriving at the mills,
found it wa, the dust mill ia the lover yard
which had exploded, where the ingredients are
mixed, and that two unfortunate freshmen had
persisted Every part OF The mill was blown to
atoms. aud the bodies OF the two men were tound
horribly manglel and biackeneh. on the bank Of
creek, covered with rubbish: they had been
blown out of the mill with the walls No other
person was manned.
No ass,gnable cause was given for the unex-
pected arcident and the most probable reason Is
the heating of gudgeon by great friction, which
may be so great that, although no visible neat Is
produced, still the temperature is high enough to
fire the dust when extremely fine. 1t appears
there is no safety in mills Of this kind, where
such friction is not provided against. IL would,
think. be the proper duty for the proprietor OF
tUeSe tDtllS, do NPi de u'i tHe P'"p S'''
powder mills, TO have the causes Of these unac.
counta5le explosions investigated and provided
against. Sir Humphrey Davy's safety lamp has
saved hundreds of lives. and science, no doubt,
might b. applied with excellent effect to the dam
GERS which powder mills arc exposed to.
