New Orleans is extremely dull at this time The
people have left in great numbers within the last four
weeks. But few steamboats, at the Levee, and COM
paratvey, but little shipping. The loafers are keep
ing up the town-they lounge eat drink, sleep, and
make noise. The ladies, God bless them-they are
nearly all gone to their summer retreats. All New
York-happy New York-how we envy your stua-
ten, Bennstt-but no matter. Up to this time, we
have no yellow fever in the city; sickness, but
nothing like epidemic. Eight weeks more and
the busy hum Of New Orleans will commence with
renewed activity.

New YoRK PILoTs.--NEw JERSEY LoAFERs.--
The introduction of the Jersey clam lafers into the
waters of New York, TO act as pilots has turned out
to be such miserable abortion, that the Wall street
prints dare not advocate the work of their own hand

Miss Bennett, your sqinting is insufferable. 1t is

The best reply to this exquisite morceI is the fact
that, during the last ten days three four Of these
oaing pilots have been broken for ncompetency and
ignorance. As to our receiving pay for defending
the New ferk pilots against the Jersey loafers we
admit the "sof impeachment" and state further that
our "pay" is much more than crown" or " two
