IHE WAY THEY DO THINGS IN
MAssAcHUsETTs.-The Receipts for
the Emancipator and Free Ameri-
can were $557,68 during the month
of August, 1e43. This indicates a
healthy state in the affairs of the
Emancipator, which we rejoice to
see. Our Receipts permonth should
be $4,000 the year through, to come
up to the cash value Of the papers
forwarded to regular Subscribers
The donations made to the Mass.
Abolition Society as acknowledged
by j. w. Alden Treasurer, are
$4,000 for the same time. If our
Massachusetts Liberty men pay bet
Ter, they do not aoorh harder than
their brethren in New York. How
ever, we trust our friends in this
State will not only acorh but pay, al
ter they have sold their Wheat, But
ter, Cheese, sc. Then if they do not
remember the Liberty Prees, we shall
be mistaken.-Lib. Press. w.B,
MEXICO AND THE UNITED STATES. -
Several official notes have passed be-
tween MI. Bocanegra, the Mexican
Secretary of State, and Mr. Thompson,
the United States Minister to Mexico, in
relation to the project to invade the Mex
lean territories by band of lawIcss bor-
derers, under the command of Colonel
Snively, Colonel Warland, sc. Texas
having disavowed all interest in the mat
ter, the Mexican Minister seems deter
mined to regard it as IA project for which
the government of the United States
must be held responsible Mr.. Thomp-
son very properly dsclaims any share on
the part of the United States in such
proceedings, and says that as proof of
the good will Of the United States Gov
eminent towards Mexico, Colonel Bar
ney, with regiment of Dragons, has
been ordered to occupy position on the
route between Santa Fe and the United
States, to afford protection as well to the
Mexicans as to the Americans engaged
in the trade between the two countries.
Mr.. Bocanegra, however, is determin-
ed to pick quarrel, if possible, and re-
iterates his former charge that the expe.
dlion is an American and not a Texan
one, although it must be evident to any
person Of the dullest comprehension that
these bands are composed of desperate
and unprincipled marauders, belonging
to all countries, who have congregated
on the borders of Texas, and whose OBJ
ject is plund Mercantile Journal.
There are ifty-seven cities in the world
which contain from $1,000 to 100000
habitants-twenty-th three from 100000
to 500,O0)-and twelve which contain
above 100000; two Of which are London
and Paris, and ten are in Eastern Asia.

YELLOW FEVER AT New ORLEANS.
AT the Charity Hospital, on the gath
of September, 10 yellow fever pa
tients were admitted, were dis
charged and Is died. Remaining
65 yellow fever patients.
We are sorry to perceive that
strangers are venturing into the city,
which, at the present moment, they
cannot do with impunity. Since
our last publication there have been
several arrivals from sea. Among
them one vessel brought ninety pas
sengers. The presence Of strangers
in our city will assuredly tend to keep
up the yellow fever and render its
ravages more extensive and fatal
N. Y. Spectator.
PEACHES The New York Tribune
says" The season for this delicious fruit
is nearly over. For the last fifteen days
the arrivals from different parts, but most
" from New Jersey, have averaged nine
thousand baskets, or about seven thousand
bushels per day. The Two weeks proceed
ing this period the quantity received at
our various markets was about three thou
sand baskets per day. In the early part
of the season, peaches of good quality
were very scarce; they were as large as
usual but were generally sour and want
ing in richness and deIicacy OF favor
During the last week, however, we
received better article. The prices OBJ
tanned by the growers, or those who
brought them in quantities 10 market av.
eraged throughout the season about 81
cents tae basket. We know of one farm
err who sold about 1000 baskets at 81,
and another who sold 1900 baskets at 90
cents each. The retail prices varied in
the markets from rs cents basket for
inferior qualities, up TO $3.50. Large
quantities are shipped from New York
ior neighboring cities and towns North
and East"
