New BUBBLES IN WALL SrREET-Floods of fresh
SPECTATORS are coming into the field, trying to hum
bug cheat cozzen and swindle each other since the
community will longer consent to the operation.
| No harm done-let Greek meet Greek. Certain grog
shops eating houses and oyster cellars, IN the neigh
borhood of Wall street, are crowded every day win
these new focks Of harpies. We have presidents,
secretaries stockholders of all kinds of Granite COM
panies from Maine to Nova Zembla. They are buy
ing, selling exchanging worthless scrip for any thing
they can get-cven glass of grog for single share,
and then the buyer loses Some distinguished speak
ers, writers and politicians engaged in these gra-
mite bubbles.
! Then again we have the mortgage bubbles. We
know of parcel of lots near Utica, each worth S5O
apiece, hawked about in the shape of bond and mort
cages, for $3.50 each. These chaps get
"Aloszo the brave and the fair lmog'ne'
10 give bond on such worthless lots for $500 apiece.
With these mortgages they 60 round the eating hou-
ses-" come won't you take drink" your health,
Mr.. So-and- so"-" don't you want to exchange some
property with me ?"-"I have got capital mortgages
on lots in the city of Utica" Not long since poor
fellow from Michigan, who had some choice land
there, exchanged it for these bonds aud mortgages
and after long search he found he had lost his all
and came out beggar.
The principle fellows who blow up these bubbles
are young orators of the great political cause, who
make the welkn ring TT Masonic, Tamnany or Lo-
cofocs Halls. In day or two we shall be prepared
TO have puff at these bubbles with our own pipe
How beautiful shall make them rise up in the
bright suns rays before they burst. Oh oh! oh!
| DUEL IN THE FASHIONABLE CIRcLEs.-Thls SIN
4 ,,l,ro of n nupl
Il appears that young midshipman, the son of the
president of public literary institution (not the He
rald) in the neghborhood Of the Park had been long
attached TO the lovely daughter of the president of
public terary institution in the neighborhood of the
new Custom House in Wall street. After many years
of her happy acquaintance, he ordered to join
his squadron about starting in search Of prizes Of an
other kind With an unwilling heart he obeyed the
summons and after sad adieu bid farewell to all his
heart held dear
While he was gone, the younger son of the worthy
president of highly respectable fancy stock nsiitu-
| on thinking, doubt, that as thi, MILDLY had de-
parted without making quite of his girl, that he
had right to try his fortune with the young lady,
whose sire dealt in fortunes being at discount
and moreover as he himself wore at times the brass
buttons of Uncle Sans sleeves, though at present
|
dame nature and in intellect above the common ORDER
his attentions were not rejected. For while he was
happy for residing far from the object of his at
tenons, he could the more frequently enjoy her So
| ciey
One evening in the early part Of this month, as he
was as usual in her company the door opened and
in walked the absent midshipman. Confused and
amazed he coolly bid them good evening forgetting
that his absence entitled him to cordial welcome
| Few and short were the words he said f" and ma
king hasty bow, bid them good evening
To be short-he next day the rival received note
from w. S. the middys friend, demanding an inter
view Ii was granted. The friend was a southerner
of renown in the way of pistols and coffee. They
met Insul, after insult offered to the poor un-
offending rival, and they parted II was soon ru-
mored that Mr. n. had been grossly nsuted by Mr.
w, and dared not resent it, But no his spirit was
not gone On Saturday evening he met Mr.. G. OPP
pesie the City Hotel and after demanding apology
in vain he pulled Mr. G's nose. The next morning
challenge sent and accepted. They meet to-
morrow morning at o'clock, at the Eysaa Fields,
Hoboken when and where they will defend their
