We note a circumstance which Occasioned
considerable distress in this place few days
since to check the many ru'nors that probably
hav. arisen from it.. On Friday last some pick.
led oysters were brought to this place and offer
ed tor sale-our citizens partook freely of them.
and from Friday night until Sunday night about
40 cases If sickness Of the cholera morbus type
occurred IN this place and vicinity. all OF which
originated from eating the oysters. Although
some of the cases were very distressing aud dan
gerous, happily none of them proved fatal-they
are all either ronvalcscent, or perfectly re
covered. Press.

On Friday discussion occurred in the III. of Re-

unusually marked, and addressed the House at

Our accounts from Lanchashire are, at the least,
favorable as those from various parts Of Yorkshire.

Mr. Editor regret very much that u'sPo.

the affairs of the Alexan,lra Canal Company

gent and perhaps as we'll informed on this parti.
cular subject, rs any other seven among U.S.
men. too, as deeply interested in the Company
aud the Town. They will, doubt not, use such
means, and adopt such measures, as are pest cal
culated to promote the end which they. eqna'y
with Us, have so much at heart; one OF WHICH,
am informed on the best authoriiy.is the prose-
cution of an extensive correspondence upon va
rious important topics connected with canat'ihS,
including the very matter out Of which proceeds
your correspondents complaint. The coInpara-
live merits, as respects durability and cheapness'
of bsick and stone for aqueducts arches, NC IS
point by no means so easily settled as your cor
respondent seems to think The little bridge
over Four Mile Run is rather too slight predl'
cate for an argument which is intended to over
turn the result Of the experience both of this
country and of England on the subject. In ooth
countries many works of the kind are built OF
brick; and have never heard any complaints oil
them as TO cheapness, nor, so far, as to durabili
! ty. But it Is not my intention to discuss the
| subject.
| 'fhe Directors will doubtless be able to give
| good account Of their stewardship at the next
election, which is the proper occasion Tor pass
ing on their conduct, and when it can be done to
more purpose than in the columns OF newspaper.
| This latter method can be productive oil nothing
but discomfort among the stockholders. and dis
trust abroad-boih of which should bv all means
be avoided, False impressions OF discoid among
ourselves about this work may BE- created IN other
