The MosquIros-. These visiters have already made

THE CHINESE JusK.-On carefully examining the
structure and model Of the Chinese junk her rigging
and appurtenances the beholder sdmres the daring Of
the man who undertook to navigate her, with a
United States and wonders that any person would ven
ture his life in such curiousy constructed affair.
Nevertheless she is to be perfectly SAFE and
comfortable than any of crack packet ships.
To be sure her voyage was very long; but what else
could be expected, with her mat sails and rudder
weighing seven tons, which answers the purpose Of
centre board when occasion requires 1t would be

CoRoHER's OFFIcE-The business of the for
the last few days possesses but little interest," except
hibng the fact that in certain localities in the city
there is a frightfu mortality by typhus fever These
of death are daily occurring among that class OF
our population, who by their own improvdence and
daily habits Of have long since ceased to
any interest in times of sickness either with their
associates with the municipal authorities. The his
tory these Of death given before the
show that this depraved class wherever congregated,
are suffered to die UNDECIDED and nncared f9r without
shing quality sufficient to sustain life while nature Is
contending with the pestience, which finally overpow-
them. We boast Of our charitable institutions,
and point to them with pride source of relief to the
poor and needy How far they fulfil the objects of their
creation ask the poor and fororn who daily called
The number of deaths reported by the city for
the last weekis unusually equal worry nearyto the
ity we notice among the medical profession, well

Notwithstanding the danger and risk to life by

bills of mortality will increase, and the disease
which is now mostly confined to certain localities, will
extend and bring whele population under its cpl
