lANp lNclpENTs coNNEcTED TnEREWITnO
For the Week ending last evening

REMARKS transactions in the general
market during the week have been good deal di-
versified, owing to their variety of character: we
can therefore do no better, think than to refer to
the leading articles, which will be found below,
under their appropriate heads.
The steamer Cambria's Geographic advices were
circulated through the city yesterday morning. she
having arrived at Halifax evening of 18th inst. with
Liverpool dates to the Sth the day OF her leaving
Their commercial character varies very little from
that of the LIST inst. The harvest was all that
could be wished. Cotton early in the week was
rather inactive, particularly the mddlng and lower

firm The weeks imports were 6,O93 bales, sales
$3.50, of which spectators took $40 and export
ers 6070 bales. The business i'll Breadstufs was
dull but with little alteration in prices Wheat

export and prices fully maintained.

limited enquiry, and lew sales continue 10 take

COFFEE-AT HOME AND ABROAD.

COFFEE AT HoME.-There is little Coffee in first
hands at present in the United States-and that is
confined to the Boston, New York and Baltimore
markets-the whole amount of which is probably
less than $4,000 bags; and of this Baltimore has
about $4,000 all of which is Rio; the total amount
of other Rio in.the country in first hands, does not
exceed probably 5000 bags. But the trade, it may be
said, is pretty fairly supplied and so it s,-but how
long will the supply last in this

4 SAMPLE of Western Etiquette.

Our yankee traveller who saw the live
hoosier, has again written to his mother:
Western people GO their death on eti-
quette. You can't tell man here that he
lies, as you can down east, without fight
ing. a few days ago man was telling
two of his neighbors in my hearing, pref
ty large story.
Says l, Stranger that's a whoPper"
Says he Lay there, strangerr
And in the twinkling of an eye found
myself in the ditch, perfect quadruped,
the worse for wear and tear. Upon anoth
er occasion, | said to a man / never saw
before, as woman passed
THAT isn't specimen of your western
women, is it1'
Says he, You are afraid of the fever
and ague stranger, amt you''
Very much,' SAYS |.
'Well,' replied he, that lady is my wife.
and if you don't apologize in two minutes,
by the honor of a gentleman, swear that
these two pistols (which he held in handy
shall cure you OF that disorder entirely
so don't fear, stranger!' So knelt down
and politely apologised. | admire this
western country, much; but curse me if
can stand so much etiquette it always takes
me unawares.

The preliminaries were, of course, made
to lead to immediate action, and he mani
tested extreme nervousness as the affair
advanced. While the chances were his.
he managed 10 sustain an artificial courage,
and upon winning the throw, as is usual.
by loaded dice, he appeared to regain .
comparative degree of composure. He
raised the pistol with an unsteady hand.
and pulled the trigger-there was the
simple flash in the pan! His step was
feeble as he turned and placed the faithless
weapon upon the table; yet nevertheless
though pale as the corpse he expected to
be within the next minute, he returned TO
his position before his adversary The
powder had been secretly shaken from the
pan of the second pistol, as it was custo-
mary to do, and the cadet looked with
fixed eye upon the muzzle as it was level
ed at his heart. The flint struck few
sparks from the steel, and in instant the
question was put by the president; there
were few negatives, but much more than
two thirds voted him elected. The presi-
dent uttered his name and gave him well
come. He took no notice of it and upon
touching him TO call his attention to the
chair, he moved his gaze, and it fell va
cantly on those around him. He was al
idiot! In about year afterwards he diedi
Many of the members then fell off in their
attendance-the bravest had felt the warn
ing in the person of another--an incident
that could never be effaced from the mem
ory. The president also died shortly af-
ter this event and the club gradually decli-
ned, until, at length, it ceased to exist In
form, though many of the members are
still alive
But how do you preserve the secret of
the club?' asked the first luff.
IF you study moment, sir replied
Jack, you will perceive that the secret
possessed the rare virtue of keeping itself.

another time, but for the present
