TNHE undersigned have established
u themselves in the city of Vicksburg,
for the purpose of transacting a general
Commission and Forwarding business
Our house will be open by the 18th OF
August, when we will be prepared to fur
nish our friends and others who may
ship Cotton through US with Bagglng,
Rope, &c. We will also furnish iron
hoops, now used by many of our best
planters instead of rope, at short notice.
We beg leave to say that we are neither
directly nor indirectly interested with
any house in New Orleans. All cotton
consigned to US will be held, sold or
shipped agreeably to the orders OF the
owner, and to any house they may de-
signate; and in no instance will we dew
ate from this course.
Our arrangements will enable US tc
receive large consignments of Produce
and Staple Goods; and as we will do
Commission business entirely, can sci
every article in our line at Uery loc PR
ces. We will he prepared to make llbe
raj advances upon Cotton during the sea
son; provided always, that the Cotton i
on hand.
We have both had some experience II
the Commission business, particularly II
the buying and selling of Cotton, ant
think that we can always get the stop o
the market" for any Cotton sold by US II
Vicksburg.
All business entrusted to our care shall
be strictly attended to. Our charges will
be moderate, and In no instance cxcee
those of other respectable houses.
We respectfully solicit call from on
country friends, and a share of their pa
tronage. $1,000

Temperance Reform.-lt is truly graft
flying to know that, although the Temper
ance reform is brought comparatively to
a s.stand-slill'' in New England, at the
present time, it is gradually and certainly
progressing in other countries. Among
other proofs may be cited the following
paragraph, from an English paper:
..Nep tovards Temperance. The
Earl of Litchfeld, Postmaster General,
has issued AN order prohibiting any IN
jdiuidual employed in the Post Office de.
partment, or their aoiUes, from keeping
houses for the sale of intoxicating liquors,
under the penalty of forfeiling office. This
order was read, few days since, TO one
of thetleparlment shy Mr.. Tyrell, Super
intending Inspector, who has been a
iteetotaler for four years"

THE INQUIRY.

- - AANNS SliS
Tell me, We winged winds,
That round my pathway roar,
Do you not know some spot
Where mortals weep no more?
Some lone and pleasant dell:
Some valley in the west,
Where free from toll and pain,
The weary soul may rest
The loud wind dwinded to whisper low,
Tell me, thou mighty deep,
Whose pillows round me play,
Knowest thou some favored spot,
Some Island far away
Where weary man may find
The bliss for which he signs,
Where sorrow never lives,
And friendship never dies 2
The loud waves rolling in perpetual flow,
Stopped for while, and sighed, to answer No!
And thou, serenest moon,
That with such holy face,
Dost look upon the earth
Asleep in nights embrace
Tell me, in all thy round,
Hast thou not found some spot
Where miserable man
Might find happier lot
Behind the cloud the moon withdrew in wo.
And u voice sweet, but sad, responded MOP
Tell me, my secret soul,
Oh! tell me, Hope and Faith,
Is there no resting place
From sorrow, sin and DEATH
Is there no happy spot
Where mortals may be blcss'd,
Where grief may find a balm,
And WEAKNESS rest!
Faith, Hope and Love, best boons to mortals
given,
Wav'd their bright wings, and WHISPERED Yes,
in Heaven"
