from Philadelphia, though related to the distin-

manners and appearance were certaina ly those
Of gentleman, and might we'll have imposed
upon the most prudent and observing. Without
being Vulgarly ostentatious, his large resources
and designs justified generous aud liberal dis
play Of his means. Accordingly he rented
large office on one Of our principal streets,
where cotton dealers "most do congregate," and
furnished it in the most costly and elegant style,
with deep-cushioned chairs, mahogany desks,
iron safes, &c.
To detray these necessary expenses, as we'll as

suspecting citizens, who were rather gatified to
include so dashing gentleman among their
friends, volunteered TO introduce the Doctor in
the circles in which they moved.
The graceful and fascinating stranger reeded
as few facilities in this as he did in the cotton
operation. He soon became leader Of the
6ea1 mOHds--a prominent actor in all gay cir
cles--the idol Of all unmarried ladies' the en-

We need not inform our readers how prompt

to gaze with many deep sigh and pang Of

were TO glisten on the brow Of the happy Mrs.

These queries naturally provokeda great deal
Of Indignation, aud led to an extensive plan Of
operations among some CT our fashionable fair,
TO laSsO the elegant Doctor and involve him in

could extricate him. A formidable enginery
of feminine art and attractions was open upon
him. Nor the Doctor Of that stern stuff
that conld long resist such influences. He was
rapidly sinking in his resOlves-and more than
one buxom widow or fair damse had received
indirect ntimations of his dispositions to fly the
track, when alas suddenly by mail, telegraph,
or other "cursed mode Of communication, some
Information reached her which rendered itnec-
essary that the Doctor should depart hastily
from our unfortunate city. The next day
the numerous business friends of the Doctor
we're startled BY reading the following adver-
tisement in the PicayaSe (Of the 18th February
last.)

ing himself forth as my commercial partner,
has issued various obligations and signed as by
the firm Of Hayne & Eyre; and made other con-
tracts in that name, l hereby give notice that
no partnership exists or evor has existed be-
tween said Hayne and myself: Dor has said
Hayne ever been authorised to use or sign my
name in any manner whatever.

This was quite satisfactory assurance to a
host Of accommodating gentlemen, that they
had been badly "sold." In justice to them it
should be stated that they bore their fate with
commendable fortitude, and some were so frank
as to admit, in quiet way, that it served them
right. The female friends Of the dashing Doc
tor were not so easily satisf led. The Faubourg
St. Mary was in tears for bis departure.
On the wings of steam flew the Doctor west
ward. Stopping at Memphis, the Ultima Ibaie
Of the cotton trade, the Doctor thought be
would take flirt at cotton, by way Of a final
wind-up Of that department of his business
Accordingly he purchased SIS 600 worth, to be
shipped to his house in New Orleans, and ne
gotiated his bi lis on the same. This arrange
ment greatly improved the finances Of the Doc
tor.
