The LATE AFFRAY.--Mr. HIcuCox whose
skull was fractured few days since in an ac
fray with drayman is still alive, and has fair
prospects of recovery. Fever has not set in
violently as yet, and the patient sleeps some
during the day and night. The fracture was
compound, and of the most serious nature. It
is to be hoped the skill of our physicians will
save him.

The Dog Days.

The Dog Days.
The dog-days have arrived, and that, too,
with a will not to be disputed or contraycned.
The scorching rays of old Sol, for the last few
days, have beat down upon us with terrible
effect to the utter exclusion Of cloth clothing,
beaver hats, and Butcher boots. Shirt collars
wilt like culled flowers, and bend over with a
habby looseness, setting fashion at defiance,
and appearances at naught. Cobweb coats,
transparent to nicely, hang like yapor clouds
upon the body. Whiskcrs disappear with I'M
eXamplcd rapditv, and each razored face be-
comes beardIess for the nonce, simply by way
Of parenthesis. Our tonsorial atiNes ply the
razor with Industrious zeal, and bay rum, CO.
logne, and trcopherous are highly in demand
Striped socks and patent leather slippers arc
prevalent i'll the streets and by-ways. Tie nr-
mcrous disciples of 'drcss' puzzle their wits
to display their fanciful colors Chip hats.
Panamas, "wi:le awakcs," and Rocky Noun
tainS, adorn the head cd HJttun, and yellow.
brown, striped, and white " incxpressiblcs" be-
tray the desire for comfortable GOODNESS.
"Whcw. how hot it is y says \. meeting
B.; to which significant remark b. at once
acquicsces by an ominous shake of the head
and smothered invectivc. In little while
we may see \. 3. c. ID. and divers other of
alphabetical cOgnomcns, standing in front Of
some mysterious table, adorned with wonder
full looking cabaistic bottles, each with a tum-
bier containing nectar or nepcnthe of some
kind, which, if drawn through stravs Is said
to add greatly to the plcssurc-ncrvcS o. man 5
physiology.
How they draw the fluid through the tubes
as if for dear life: Not drop remains to be-
tray what was of the past; and each brcathes
long breath of contentcd satisfaction over
the single finale of a fragrant Havana.
The dogs, poor CANNES, lie painting in the
shade; their great tongues lolling from the
mouth, as if in very agony itself The pigs
seek the lovely retreat of some convenient filthy
mudllolc, and with the grlnt of dear delight,
roll themselves Secundem ortem into its black
ened mass, the downiest bed for scrofulous
porkcrs.
The COWS, heifcrs, oxen and calves, wade
knee deep into some adjacent lake or river,
where they stand, motionless as the Pyramids,
through tine long hours of the day. The horses
huddle together, demurely hanging the head,
and cover each other with their own shadows
while the colts lay upon the grass wondering
at the supine stiffness of their maternal "horsc-
ships, whose constant swinging of the tail
comes nearer perpetual motion than half the
wheels, and thimble-rigs, of this progressive
age.
1t has been too hot to work. too hot to play
too hot to keep awake, too hot to sleep-too
hot to eat, too hot to 60 without-too hot to
walk, too hot to ride. and in fact IA leeile too
hot to do anything either in general or partic-
ular.
Yesterday was somewhat cooler owing to a
threatened thunder storm the day before. But
still, remember :" the Dog-days have GOMEZ"
