The health of our citizens, generally, IS
remarkably good; so far, we have had but
one death occasioaed by fever. August has
terminated, and with it the intense heat of
the Southern summer. We are now daily
refreshened by cooling breezes, that watts
Us health from every quarter. The only
danger now is, exposure to the damp, cold
air of night, TO guard against which we should
be exceeding careful.

New Cotton continues to come into mar

for steamboats,, our city would in short time
present lively appearance. The crops.
from what we can learn, are excellent, and
the cotton, generally. of the finest quality.
At some of the plantations, there has been
already tpicked out" from fifty to seventy
bales.

hun to a widow. The alderman, underta-
king to act as matrimonial blacksmith, &C.
compsnled the applicant o the house where
the chains were to be rivelled. Introduced
TO the apartment where he was TO officiate,
he saw two weI.dressed and pretty women
holding a blanket extended across corner.
Above i, were visible head and shoulders,
The latter very fair and quite guilless Of
clothing. As this is the fashion, the AL
derman was not surprised bu, being very
polite. aud therefore looking down. for fear
OF embarrassing the lady, he saw two little
feet peepIng from beneath the blanket, as
white and as bare as The shoulders above.
| Thinking that he had got into the wrong
apartment and at an unreasonable hour, he
begged pardon tor the supposed intrusion.
and beat retreat. Bnt before he reached
the door, the two brides, maids told him to
stay, for there was the bride behind the
blanket, waiting to be married. More

Dear tokens Of the earth are they,
Where he was once a child.
They all slm bloom in fields of light,
Transplanled by my care ::
And saints, upon their garments white,
These sacred blossoms wear.
The mother gave in tears and pain,
The flowers she most did love;
Eat she knew she should find them all again
In the fields Of light above.
Oh not in cruelty, not in wrath,
The reaper came that day
twas angel visited the green earth,
And took The flowers away.
