We this week resume our commercial re-
marks relative TO the staple production OF our
southern country. Since our last, we have
twenty-erght days later news from Europe,
which, however, does not much vary the rates
in our markets below.
In our own little market fair business has
been done, comprising sales varying from s to
10 cents, although there appears to be aslight
disposition in buyers to hold off; yet, thecroF
beng nearly all in, and the quantity for sale
being very limited, enables farmers to malntair
present prices.
Our river is now in fine boating order, ena
bling our merchants and planters to get of
their crop.

POPULAR FALLAcY That Man must not
laugh athis opn Jest.--The severest exaction
surely ever invented upon the selfdenial of poor
human nature This is to expect a gentleman
to give treat without partaking of it; to sit
esurient at his own table, and commend the
favor Of his vension upon the absurd strength
Of his never touching it himself. On the con
trary, we love to see wag taste his own joke
to his party to watch quirk, or a merry con-
ceit, Pickering upon the lips some moments be-
fore the tongue is delivered of it. If be good
fresh, and recy-begotten of the occasion; ifhe
that utters it, never thought il before, he is ma
turally the first TO be tckled with it and any
suppression Of such complacence we hold TO be
churlish and insulting. What does it seem TO
imply, but that your company is weak or foolish
enough 10 be moved by an image or a fancy,
that shall stir you not at all, but family This
is exactly the humor of the fine gentleman in
Vaudeville, who while be dazzles his guests
with the display of some costly toy, affects to
''see nothing considerable in tic. Lamb.

HEIGHT OF WAvEs.-So awful is the specta-
Gle OF storm at sea, that il is generally viewed
through medium which bases the judgment;
and, lofty as the waves really, are, imagination
pictures them loftier still Now, no wave rises
more than ten feet above the ordinary sea-level,
which with the ten feet that its surface after
wards descends below this, give twenty feet for
the whole height from the bottom of any water
valley to an adjoining summit This PROPOSE
ton is easily verified by person who tries at
what height, upon ships mast, the horizon re-
mains always in sight over the top Of the waves,
allowance being made for accidental inclina-
tons of the vessel, and for her sinking in the
when she reaches the bottom of the hollow be-
tween two waves. The spray ofthe sea driven

LOVE IN INFANCY.

From Hymens Triumph, Pastoral Tragi- Comedy
by Samuel Daniel.
All, remember well (and how can
But evermore remember well) when first
Our fame began when scarce we knew what was
The flame we felt; when as we sat and sighei
And look upon each Other, and conceived
Not what we ailed-yet something we did all
And yet were well, and yet were not well,
And what was our disease we could not tell
Then would we kiss then sigh, then look: and thus
In that first garden Of our simpleness
We spent our childhood. But when years began
10 reap the fruits of knowledge-ah, how then
Would she with graveT looks with sweet stern brow
Check my presumption and my forwardness;
Yet still would give flowers, still would me show
What she would have me, yet not have me know.
