The ..CompI,mentary Hop"

The Complimentary Hop" given by the
gentlemen of the Crescent Class, last Friday
night, was very largely attended, by young
and old. Foster Hall had as much life and
beauty in it as we ever saw gathered in this
eity-yes, life, beauty and glddness. for all
appeared to enjoy themselves most heartily.
The managers won high favor with all present
for their attention, and efforts to make every
thing pass off agreeably. The supper was
one of the best we ever saw set out in Eva MS
vile. The ladies' had taken this part of the
business in hands, and they did full justice to
themselves and to the appetites of those in at
tendance. There was an abundance and Of
the best. The supper room was kept open
till the Ball closed. The new Odd Fellows
Hall, was kindly thrown open by permission
Of the Order, and was used as d promenade
its ante-rcoms being occupied during the
night as the ladies' dressing rooms. The
company availed themselves Of this privilege
most happily, and we Lope some of the bucks
who went in there determined "Odd Eel
lows" made up their minds to get eren soon
as possible. The dancing of Mr.. Langs
pupils prove him most efficient teacher
They appeared perfectly at home in a number
of fashionable dances, in which the company
generally could not participate. We hope
Mr.. Lang will commence his new class with
a large number of scholars. We need not
say more of the Hop" Everybody appear
ed delighted, and none were to blame but
themselves. if they did not really eLjcy them
selves.

THE Corros CRoP.-W We were informed by
an experienced cotton grower from the South,
that the crop this year would probably fall
short of the last years production near -
600 900 bales, notwithstanding much larger
area of lands were under cultivation the pres
ent season. The season was highly favor
able for the growth of the plant up to the
first Of August, about which time warm and
long continued rains set in which very mate
rally injured The formation aud maturing OF
the bolls by producing a second growth. The
price of shipping cotton to foreign markets
has increased the present season, at least one
hundred per cent. Five dollars per bale has
been the standard of freight for years, but
vessel Is cannot now be employ to take it at
less than ten, owing to the vast amount OF
shipping that has been deferred from enter
ing the port of New Orleans in consequence
OF the ravages of yellow fever.

LIST. That the law was submitted TO the
people.
End. That it contains provision for
licensing agents to sell Liquor under certain
conditions.

Detroit under the Law Of 1851, ut least un-
til the question shall have been definitely set
tied by the Supreme Court, unless contrary
decision can be had from some other Justice

September at Adrianople. Two men, the

their faces turned towards the tails OF the an
finals, and having their heads dressed out in
a grotesque manner, with the hairy part OF
sseeping brush OH their forehead. and some
cloves of garlic around their necks. They
were proceeded by the public crier, who an
nounced the crime OF which they had been
guilty. After being thus for some time ex'
posed to the hoo,ings Of the people, they were
TAX. u to the court of the palace, where they
were dismissed, and declared incapable OF
ever holding any pu,lic office.

GFor the benefit of our neighbor, we
publish the following remarks on the Presi-
dents message from the New York Sun,
paper which though aims to be neutral, has
remarkable Locofoco procivities.- and didn't
appear to recognize the existence Of a'Whig
party:
Present Appearances would Justify suspis
cion of the authenticity and genuinene Of
the message that has been published: a
document that hes IAN about newspaper off,
ces in prOol.sheet for several days is hardly
to be regarded otherwise than with suspicion.
How DO We know but that copies Of the orig
inal manuscript OF the message were circuia-
ted around the various outside cli9ues that
"acquiesce" in supporting the Administration,
subjected TO their revision aud amendatlon,
and the corrected manuscripts finally worked
up into the emasculated, meaningless thing
palmed off IN Congress and the country us
President Pierce's FIRST Annual Message!
The more we think on the subject, the
stronger grow our doubts that Mr. Pierce
either wrote or dictated the message that has
been published under this name. II is not
in the style Of the Inaugural. II he wrote
this one he did not write the other. Which
is his! The message, in our opinion, must
have been written in scraps, altered and
amended. North East, and South. but not
West. The "o!d foges" scratched on; sman.

fusion to our position as a "pOwer on the
