DEAR SIR
The mail this morning came through from New
York, with dates Of the Sd inst, but containing no
news OF interest except the Rhode Island difficulty
which suppose will all end in nothing Business
with us has now nearly closed most Of this States
crop having come to market, and the greater part
already sold for export. BY the first of next month
business will be entirely over, and even now many
merchants are leaving for the north. Where they
raise the money to take them away, the Lord only
knows, having done nothing this winter but COM
plain OF hard times. The annual encampment of
the Mob lie volunteers commenced Yesterday, and
will last for three days, during which time carous-
ing Is kept up continually. On the last day grand
ball is generaliy given in the encampn,ent, which
many ladies attend. The Theatre has closed for
the season, and fear has been losing business to
the .proprietors, who hardly deserve pity, having
employed such miserable stock company In the
course of the there have been very poor stars
here. Mrs Fitzwilliams. Blackstone, j. S Brown,
Butler, the Seguins and Manvers; the first and last
Of whom drew during their engagements very full
houses The season closed with the benefit of Miss
Nelson, alias Mrs. Hodges. b.

DEAR BENEFIT
Your remark that the events OF the past week pos
sess surprising interest, Is equally true when APP
piled to what has ranspred in our little emporium
am sure you will be pleased to learn that all the
good in the world and all the fun in the world, are
not confined to your celebrated city
In Paterson we have had our protracted meet
ings, our temperance meetings, our anniversaries,
and every thing else except the touch Of row in
the corporation, and that is because we have not
got one and this is not all, for we have had i'm
ported into Paterson, Universalsm, Momonsm,
Thompsonianisn and last, but not least slandersm,
by professor of some practice, but ofow standing
in the newspaper world. Seeing that you so
industrious, and go determined TO give interest and
usefulness TO your paper, have wondered you had
no correspondent in this town that would furnish
you weekly with few Of the most interesting
items but if none other better able, volunteers his
service, and you are agreeable, will from time TO
time acquant you with our progress in the things
mentioned above, and every thing else OF interest.
On Tuesday last our g0at carnival came of with
appropriate reocngs II was the anniversary OF our
Washingtonian Bows aye and girls TOO, Tor
both turned out in formidable and splendid array:
The race in Paterson was not between boston
and "Fashion" no, but between cold water and
rum. between vice and virtue. may mention that
il was their first anniversary. and that during the
last twelve months they have got nearly three thou
sand on the abstinence pledge; work that cannot
be too highly appreciated by all good citizens. The
proceedings OF the day consisted in procession,
meeting, and concert; in the procession, which was
numerous and long, there were two military COM
panies, one of which was the Washington
Guards" of your city; the other temperance com
pany recently organized in this town There were
three bands Of music with NUMEROUS and appropriate
banners. A highly respectable company OF females
led the procession with their famous banner. which
you have doubt heard Of, q " Teetotal or no
Husband" Many of our y0afHR sparks laugh at
this banner, but the ladies have renewed their de-
termination to act up 10 the letter of it, 40 Of course
the young men must yield. The meeting, II posi-
BILE, eclipsed the procession, for there must have
been at least near five thousand persons present.
We had several speakers from your city. Mr..
Woodruff first addressed the meeting; he cornpll-
mented and congratulated the Patersonlans on their
progress in temperance he spoke Of the effects OF
alcohol from experience, and Likewise on the happy
effects Of temperance ;yhc said IT gave peace
and harmony to the domestic circle pleasantly ao

DEAR BENNETT a.r-
You would have been delighted could you have
listened to the manner in which your old friend
Sianor de Begins executed his songs, duets, &c,
at the concert of Signor Ribas last night at Musi
cal Fund Hall. His style certainly exceeds any
thing ever saw. Such richness and gusto His
whole soul seems alive to the sentiments he utters
Pity he should ever return to Europe for lack of
business on this side of the water. If we cannot
have him here, do you try and carry out the hoped
for connection with Miss Cushman's new opera
house. So that he is in the vicinity, we will not
despair Of seeing and hearing him occasionally.
Mons Martini, the accordianist, too took, part in
the programme, and he fully redeemed his reputa-
ton by treating usto mastery and exquisite thema,
ductto, &c.
We have a young debmtante here Miss Durang,
who was very successful at the concert. More

DEAR BENNETT
-o SIR = -sefe.- -fi laae
i see by your papers that you have no oorrespon-
dents in Norwich, and think that place like Nor
wlch ought to be noticed through the columns of
your excellent paper. Our little city is small. bur
what of that! We have religion, politeness good
morals, and almost as many grades as Gotham.
yesterday was great day for little Norwich
We had out the Military Fire Companies, Cold Wa
ter Army, and host of other entertainments The
Militia, under Capt Caleb Eaton, made a most
splendid appearance. They were called out at eight
o'clock, IN front OF the Town Hail. and long before
the time the members the ground and there
never was a more molly group seen than on that
occasion. Very soon Capt Eaton was seen wend-
ing his way up Church street and the whole Com
pany met HIM and escorted him up in front of the
Engine House No. z, where the congratulaton.
took place The music soon called the Company
together. Very soon the command was given TO
which our city is noted) through Church and Union
streets TO the Park, where they went through the
manual exercise until noon. In the afternoon they
were marched up TO Greenville, to the pretty
factory girls (tor Capt. Eaton Is bachelor) through
mud and water, and raining as hard as it ever did
since Noah's flood .t- "a
In the evening the Westinghouse met at the
Town Hall, and the Fire Companies not having
enough OF cold water, they marched in procession
to the Town Hall, and partook of the refreshments
OF the Westinghouse, such as cold water songs
and speeches, and thus ended the first Monday in
May.
