ADVANCE IN THE Pace OF FLoUE AND
GRAIN. BY the report of the markets in an
other column, it will be seen that there has
been considerable advance in the price Of
flour and grain, in consequence Of the recent
intelligence from Europe. The sales of both
flour and grain in this market for the last two
days, have been exceedingly large, and the de-
mand is still active. This will be pleasing in
telligence to our readers in the country, who
will doubtless avail themselves of the opportu-
nifty of disposng oftheir grain and -four at the
advanced rates.

KISSING

Had yru ever a cousin, Tom,
did your cousin happen to sing?
Sisters we've all by the dozen, Tom,
hut a Cousins different thing;
And you'll find If ever you had kissed her, Tom
fBat lei this be a secret between ISL
That your lips would have been in a blister, Tom,
For they are not of the sisters genus.
There is something, Tom, in a sisters lip
When you give her a gooi night kiss,
That saVors 80 much of relationship,
That notbag occurs amiSs,
But Cousins lip, il ysu once unite
With yours in he quietcst way,
Instead Of sleeping wink that night,
Youll be dreaming the following day.
And people think itno harm, Tom,
With cousin 10 hear you talk;
And NO one feel, any alarm, Tom,
Al quiet c0asinly wak:-
But, Tom, you'll soon lind what happen to know,
That such Oilen grow into straying,
And the voices of cousins are sometimes so low,
Heaven only knows what you'll be saying
And there happens so often, Tom, .
Self pressure of hands and f.. =,
And loDks thIt were moulde ften, Tom,
And tones on which mt rroOrrifrs;
That long ere yOiIr w,f is aaif over, the strings
OF your hea" are all hut into play,
BY the voice of these fair demi-sislerIy things
In not the most br0tbery way.
And the song of sister may bring to you, Tom,
such tones as the angels WOO,
But fear if your cousin should ng to you, Tom,
gOu'll take her for an angel tso;
For 30 curious a note is thai note of theirs,
Tn tyOu'd fancy the voice that gave it,
Has been all The while singing national airs,
Instead of the Psalms Of David.
once had cousin that sung, Tom,
And her name may be namelcss now,
Bet the sound OF those snngs is still young, Tom
ThOu!h we are no Longer so;
'Ts folly 10 dream OF bower o green,
When there is not leaf on the tree
But'tvixt walking and singing III at cousin has been
God forgive her! the III in Of me.
And now care nauPht for society, Tom,
And lead n most anchorite life.
For I'Ve Owed myself into sobriety, Tom,
And nut of the W sh for wifi:
But OH If / sal. bll half what might say,
SO sad were the les on 'twould give.
That tw0uld keep you from lOvingfOr many q day

The WORLDS TEMPERANCE CONVENTION.
This body, which assembled in London, ad-
journed on the 18th ult. 1t was attended by
about 200 delegates, and was in session five
days Its harmony was somewhat disturbed
one day by an improper introduction of the
subject of Slavery by Frederic Douglass, "a
fugitive slave from Maryland } who made some
exaggerated statements, rejecting upon the
friends Of temperance in this country, which
were subsequently, refuted or explained by Mr..
Kirk, Of the United States. A letter published
in the Boston Journal says:
"Our American delegation consi sting of Mr..
Kirk, Drs. Beecher, Cox, Patton, Mussey, &C.,
have acquitted themselves well, and we have
been treated with much attention. break
fast was given us at the Guldhall Tavern, on
Wednesday morning, at which about one hun
dred gentlemen sat down; and OH Thursday
evening soiree at the Free Masons Hall. On
Friday evening we had the most magnificent
meeting at the Covent Garden Theatre, ever,
PROBABLY, convened for Temperance; and am
happy to say to you that the speaking was very
able and calculated to make good impression
on the public mind; and as the speeches are all
printed, the sentiments uttered will be widely
scattered. On the subject of the Worlds
Temperance Union there was much division.
After whole days discussion, it was conceded
that the Temperance community were not ripe
for it here; though it was of their own proposal
it was, therefore, deferred. The American
delegation were fully prepared for it.

SANTA FE TAKEN WITHOUT THE FIRING OF
A Gun. The New York Express contains a

news by express from Gen. kearney, stating
that he had taken Santa Fe, toithouL The firing

There has been a tremendous speculation
in stock in this quarter for the Santa Fe expe-
diton.

The LENGTH OF HUMAN LIFE. Benoiston
de Chateauneui lately read to the Academy of
Moral and Political Sciences in Paris, me-
moir on the length of human life IN many Of
the principal States of Europe, and on the great
err or less longevity Of their inhabitants; it is
work of extensive research and immense calcu-
lation. He concludes that all climates are IA
vorable TO longevity; that in Europe toomm is
every where longer lived than man, and that
the human career may be estimated at ninety
years as the extreme; of one thousand individu-
ais, fourteen remain to that period, from the
age of thirty, and six from BIRTH

teen thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine
tons, employing one hundred and eig hteen

LATER FROM FoRT LEAyENwoRTH. The
St. Louis Republican contains letter from
Fort Leavenworth, of the eth ult., from
which we extract the following:
''More than seventy wagons with army-stores
and provisions have left here this week already.
More than two hundred mules have arrived
here this week, which have been purchased by
the Government, and more than one hundred
teamsters reported themselves yesterday as
ready to go. The Government will find NO
difficulty now in getting transportation for all
she wants 1.-THE infantry regiment were ready
on the ground, they could leave in ten days.
"Gen. Kearney has written home that he
will not return to the United States until next
winter twelve months"
The volunteers already there want an inter-
view with Major Stewart, before they leave.
There are not guns enough at the Fort to arm
the infantry regiment-only about five hundred
were to be found. Sabres for the non commits
stoned officers were also needed
The same paper has letters from Santa Fee.
1t says:
They embody the same information which
we have already published. But one of the
letters states, in addition, that private letters,
brought by Mr.. Colburn, say that it was cur
rently reported, and in fact known, at Santa
Fe, that Gov. Armijo had left that place
some said for good, others, not. "He has evil
IDENTIFY rested in very great uneasness ever
since he first learned that the American army
was approaching Santa Fe with hostile inten-
tons, and now, | suppose, is determined to
make good his flight, while every thing is ia
vorable."

STRANGE RuMoRs An intense and painful
excitement exists in the village of Rome and
vicinity in Macomb county, Mich, in relation
to certain alleged confessions and charges made
by physician ofthat place, who is at the point
OF death: accusing not only himself of murder,
but several of his respec able neighbors of va
rlous heinous crimes. 1t is said that several
confessions have been made corroborating the
physicians statements. We are disposed to
think the rumors are exaggerated, and we hope
groundless. 80.

melting Of the mountain SHOWS. General
Taylor was blowing up Quartermaster for
not having a supply of tents and munitions at

self by showing that he had pushed them off by
steamboat with the least possible delay. "You
see, General" concluded he sit is the Hardness
of the steamboats, that is to blame" "By-
lhen," quoth the General, (who, says the let
ter, when his back is up, swears like a trooper
am hang every shlhless son of gun of their
officers the moment lay eyes on them"
"But, General said the Quartermaster," "It
is not the fault of the olficeIs-their steamboats,
have not sufficient power to breast the current.
