CUSTOM HousE.-The Custom House presents a
very neat and clean appearance, compared to what
" it was won't to do" The new employees appear
industrious and cheerful and the retained are calm
and content, on philosophical principles. The
Collector is very active, rising at sunrise, looking
into every hole and corner of his establishment
He has suspended some of his officers for neglect
of duty, broken others for misconduct, displaced
idlers, and rid the establishment of some useless
men, who considered their Offices sinecures. What
has he done with Noah! Let us know.
outdoors, there is much discomfort, as was ex-
pected. Thousands must be disappointed, where
there 5000 applications for $50 Offices. All can
not be appointed Every man deems himself the
best candidate, and recommends prescription. So
that he gets Office he not who is turned out.
The Collector is checked by other and many just
considerations, that don't enter the noddle OF the
candidate and when he does just and liberal
act IT is sure TO be the signal for poe among
all the applicants not provided for. The Collector
will, regardless OF all this camor, select the best
men, under all circumstances, and not violate JUS
tice in the apportionment of his patronage. 'Rome
was not built In day ~ The changes IN the Gus
tom House must be gradual, and made as not
to interrupt the business of that great establish
ment So we recommend patience and good tenn
per to all applicants.
A story circulating in the environs of the Gus
tom House, that the Collector has, within few
days, discharged one of the clerks holding an i'm
portant post in one of the warehouses. Madam
Rumor has it, that some two years ago, an en-
pioyfe carried three parcels of cloth, of peculiar
manufacture, to an auctioneer for sale ; that the
4. Il
imported this peculiar fabric had lost three pieces,
exactly similar, from one of the public stores. 1t
is said that the empioyee's account of his coming
INTO possession was unsatisfactory, and he was
promptly dismissed We heard complaint made
some time since, relative to quantity of VIM,
which had evsporated in very rapid manner, in
one of the public stores; but no doubt this effect
was caused by the extreme heat of the weather.

TnE WATERING PLAcEs.-During the last ten
days it has been observed that the number Of per-
sons making their way to the watering places has
very sensiby increased, but still the travel is not
equal to what 1t has been in former years. Proba-
bly, the dimnuiion of the cholera may have in
creased the number Of visters at those places
We know very well that the cholera panic has
prevented many from leaving home. This ought
not to be the case, for, with the exception of some
Of the cities in the Western States, the cholera in
the region east Of the Alleghanes has been very
moderate, and unworthy of causing panic.
