EAST W,NDs.-A correspondent of the
Transcript states that for the last ninety. .foul
days the wind has been to the eastward 70,
the whole or part of the day, with only two
or three exceptions.
1t is singular coincidence that during the
Spring of 1882, previous to the appearance
of the cholera in this city, the wind was east
nearly every day for three months. If there
is any connection between this prolonged
spell of easterly weather and the subsequent
appearance of the cholera, (Which is very
doubtiuD the coincidence is favorable, as il is
well known that the disease prevailed in a
very mild form in this city at its former ap-
pearance -Boston Journal.

of Pennsylvania, has published the following
prayer, to be used in the congregations Of his
Diocese, during the continuance Of the Chol.
era -
30 God, with whom are the issues Of life
and death, TO whom it justly 5clongeth to pun
sh sinners and to be merciul to them that
truly repent, save us, re humbly bescech thee,
from the ravages OF that 2cs'ilence with
which we are threatened. We have plovok-
ed thy Iighteous judgments By our manifold
uansgresslons and hardness of heart and
though we should utterly perish, our punish
ment would be less than our sins deserve Blu
O God, who desires not the death of inner,
but rather that he should turn from his wick
edncss and live, have pity upon us, thy un-
worthy creatures, and grant that we, repent
ing of our iniquities aid forsaking our sins,
may experience thy forGivng and protecting
grace. AS thou ddst deliver thy people of
old when they turned to thee from their re-
bellion and didst cause thy destroying angel
TO cease from Furnishing, so turn thine anger
from us y no meekly acknowledge our VILE
ness and truly repent of our sins. Spare
those who are now suffering from this griey-
Gus sickness, restore the voice of JOY and health
to their dwellings, and grant that all who
shall taste Thy forbearing mercy may devote
their souls and bodies living sacrifice to
.hcc, through Jesus Christ our Lord Amen.

Il lHE CREvAssE AT SAUvE's.-We yester-
day paid another visit to this crevasse, leaving
there at 7 O'Clock last evening The work is
necessarily progressing slowly, but, in our
opinion, success is now almost beyond a
doubt. The pillng is completed with the OK
ception of space of fifty or sixty feet near
the centre, and fascines are put down, with
sand bags as fast as they can be brought to the
spot, The pilng which has been completed,
we are confident, is of sufficient strength =,

! The OvERFLow.-The truant waters of
Father Mississippi continue to encroach up
on our city, and the song Of the gondolier, or
rather the shout of the municipality boatmen,
is fast nearing St. Charles street The inun-
dated streets present novel and exciting scenes,
and, apart from the melancholy reflections
caused by the disastrous state of affairs there
is much to amuse. All sorts of aquatic con.
veyances are brought into requisiton and these
are now to be seen at all corners waiting TO
convey passengers through avenues where
cabs and carriages were wont TO roll
through many Of the streets, however, the
authorities have caused guI.wales or plank
walks to be constructed which Prove a great
convenience. 1t was impossible, in the haste
IN which they were put up, to make them firm;
the traveller is obliged to step with great eau
ton, and even then primly dressed gentlemen
arc occasionally seen to disappear for time
beneath the dirty flood. With the fine pros
pect of stopping the crevasse, we have reason
to hope that this state of affairs will not las,
much longer.
The Della of the same,late says:
HE CREvAssE.-We cannot afford our
readers any cheering information or positive
assurance, tina, the crevasse at Sauve's will be
stopped in one, two, three or four days from
this time. Capt. Grant we understand, thinks
he will be able to stop it ellectually by Thurs
day next. We think differently.

IL We are again called upon TO perform
a melancholy duty by announcing the death
of WILLIAM Ennis, Esq, which took place
Yesterday afternoon, at . o'clock his dis
ease was typhoid fever he was about fifty
years Of age. Mr.. Ennis has not enjoyed
I good health for some time past, and has been
several times confined to his house, during
the last six monihs,-but no one supposed
that he was so near the close OF his career
lie was in our Office one week ago, and we
! little supposed that it was the last time we
should see him, for his health, although not
good, was not such as to induce any one to
think that he would so soon be taken from
practised his profession in this town for some
years, although his taste was never suited to
it, and his temperament was such that he
was not calculated ior the conflicting elements,
the cool philosophy and the dull tcdium of
the profession. lie gradually withdrew
from it some years since, and during the last
three yeas has been connected with the gar
rison at Fort Adams, as Sutler Of the Post
Mr.. Ennis possessed a fine though some
what peculiat mind he had excellent taste,
and brilliant Imagination was good writer
and graceful speaker. A kinder heart ney
er beat in mans bosom, but his nervous TEN.
pcIament, and the enthusiasm of his nature
made him somewhat unsettled in his disposi .
ion and variable in his thoughts and purposes .
Some years ago, he represented this town ]
in The Legislature, and he was a men,
Der Of the Convention, in the Autumn oflsi2,
which formed the present Constitution of this
State.
He was popular man among those who
knew him well, and who could appreciate te the
many excellent traits Of his character lie
was exceedingly gentlemanly in his deport-
mont and atiabIe in his manner, which render
ed HIM an agreeable companion In the social
;ircle he was always a eculiar favorte and I
his faculty of imparting life and cheerfuness

I isnot our prerogatye to heal their grief, or
