the ''unterri6ed" held an immense mss,;ns ;nsn'

was the venerable Father Richie, who seemed
imbued with the same energy and enthusiasm
which so peculiarly distinguished him in davs
of yore. The Wings, not TO be outdone, are
making preparations for great demonstra-

"back up their judgment" They offer to bet
quite largely on the general result. They Of.

Carolina, and "even" on Maryland. Ex-Gov.
Frank Thomas, of Md, made wager of $1,000
against $500, in this city, yesterday, that Md.
would cast her vote for Pierce. Thus you will
perceive the politicians are in for it, and the
quid names are highly delighted in view of the
increasing excitement.
The Norfolk correspondent of the Baltimore
Sun has wofully sinned, it seems, in his an
nouncement of the prevailing sickness there.
We believe IF. ]. W." has been unjustly as
sailed; and as faithful chronicler of the times
he has not stepped out of his line of duty in
stating (what We know to be fact) that in
some localities in tnat city an obstinate and
fatal disease has prevailed, We wish "F. J..
W. "happy issue out of all his Affections. :"
We have remarkably pleasant weather. We
have always regarded autumn the most de-
lIghtsome season in the year, and October the
most charming month in the calendar. 1t is
profitable to gaze upon the foliage of the
trees, and note The sere and yellow leaf, as il
falls silently from its parent stem, and view in
the scene striking type of mans mortality.
Although We cannot assign to autumn all
that ethereal mildness which "Thompson':
ascrIbes to spring, yet the saddened notes of
the birds, the hazy atmosphere, the bedimmed
sun, all conspre to induce feeling of melan
choly which is, to us, not the less pleasing
than it is instructive. We are forcibly remind.
ed ofthe transitions attending mans pilgrimage
on earth; of that autumn of life which pre-.
cedes the dreary winter Of old age; and even
the decay and resuscitation in the vegetable
Kingdom, typifying the resurrection of the
body, ''points to an hereafter and intimates
eternity TO man."
Our weather much resembles the "Indian
Summer"-balmy and delicious. The trees
are being arrayed in purple and gold-the
grooming act of nature-ere they are stripped
of their beautiful raiment-and the mind ia
impressed with the conviction that another
year will soon be added TO the record of time.
We have no local news of interest.
