A Cool RETREAT.-We have friend who is very
practical in his philosophy, and loves every thing
that is good and comfortable; and from him We
learn that the front of the Patent Office is one of the
coolest lounging places to be found in these warm
nights. 'And there" says he, ''there are no form
alites required; cigars not prohibited it is not
unmannerly to yawn, and conversation may run
tolerably free too; it is real place of freedom,
equality, republicanism, and cool breczes." We
have not tested this advice, but would say to any
incrcduous speculator the subject that seeing IL
believing, and he may try it for himself But there
is one place TO which we of our own knowledge
commend our friends for relief in right warm
evening, evening that is not very warm.
We mean Eckcrt's confectionery, at the corner be-
low. Here ice creams and other ices may be had
in pleasant and airy saloon, where cigars not
smoked, and people do not yawn, and folks are on
their good behavior, and try TO look pretty them
selves, and look at other folks who also looking
pretty. Yet the ice cream is the real of the
joke; and delightful il is too, whether favored with
strawberry, lemon, or vanilla

We reported on this subject, like most rumors,
was incorrect. II is not branch Of Mr.. Latham's
Exchange Bank that is to be located at the above
place Mr.. Latham does not propose locating a
branch there elsewhere. He states that his whole
attention is and will be required where he is
located, and that 1t would be totally incompatible
with his plans to enter upon any other field. About
Mr.. l.. and his enterprise, however, we shall soon
have something further to say.
The new bank is to be entirely unconnected with
any other existing institution. and will be estab-
lished upon the principles that form the bases
of the other banks Of this District The projectors of
it are gentlemen of the highest responsibility in
commercial and monetary circles, and eminently
competent and responsible. The capital is to be
100000, third of which is already subscribed.
