Counterfeit orleanians.

It has afforded us much qualification to learn
that sc Bill Lake, the great New Orleans
Clown" is now engaged at the Floating Palace
Circus in New York, and also g Mile. Agnes,
the celebrated Creole Gymnast." We do not
recollect ever having been disturbed by the
noisy fame of either of these products of city,
and entertain some doubt as to whether either
of them ever saw New Orleans. If, however,
there is truth in the assertion, there is also
much cause for qualification. The "great New
Orleans Clown . having left for more genial
and appreciatiye atmosphere, it is possible that
the less may follow, and our community be
|purged.
In connection with the above, it may be fitting
for us to notice our surprise at the great num-
Der Of arrivals from New Orleans and Louisiana
chronicled in the New York hotel reports.
Names that never were heard Of here are to be
found there thick g as the leaves of Valambro,
sa,'' and individuals who could not tell Charities
from Camp street record their arrival from New
Orleans daily. We do not understand the phi.
losophy of the thing, or where the advantage
lies that renders the practice desirable. 1t il

These counterfeits, by their rascalities, bring
into bad odor and disrepute the real article
and cause Northerners to be wary and suspi
eious, intolerant and sometimes insulting whers
they should not be, and would not if they knew
the facts. 1t is an evil, however, that cannot b,
remedied by any means we know of, and which
must, therefore, be patiently borne. We shall
doubtless continue to read of New Orleans ce

THE FEVER AT SAvANNAH.--There were thir-
ty.fye interments on the 18th inst, of which
twenty. two we're yellow fever cases. The Geor-
gian says
"The great mortality attending the disease
appears at present to be in the western and
southwestern portions Of the city. among q
1 class Of people who have been and still are not
only exposed to all degrees and kinds of weather,
but to q precarious and ill-conditioned livel-
hood-many of them addicted to intemperance.
Among such, medical aid-generally. too, called
| in at n late hour-is of but little or no avail.
/ Hence the disease for the few past days, has
seemed to be fearfully on the increase and,
/ Judging alone from the interments, the mortal
ity almost appalling. when the greatly reduced
number of our white population is considered.
We do not yet despair, dark as the picture is.
Our medical faculty, though greatly exhausted,
are working nobly; the clergy Of all denomina-
tions are jealous and untiring in their lahors in
behalf the sick, the dying and the dead and
the benevolent of all classes are vigilant in their
ministrations. All is done that human hearts
and human hands can do to stay the pestilence
the rest must be left to Him who holds our des-
TIMES in His hands
The same paper says that good nurses are in
demand.

MosoUiToEs,- The plentiful rain of the past
few days has had the effect of filing our houses
and offices with perfect swarms of day musaui-
toes, nimble, active, annoying, diminutiye nui-
sances cannot be lodged OF driven away, caught,
killed or, by any known means, got rid Of. We
are not without q certain species of respect
mingled with fear, for the mammoth gallinip-
pers that are to be fought with all the weapons
of war, and frequently come off victorious over
the most scientific defence; nor are we wholly
devoid Of regard for the common and established
mosquito that sings nightly outside Of the bar.
But these COMPOUNDED, speckled, indestructible
little torments, as active as ieas and with more
lives than o cat, that now attack US upon every
side and at all times, are too much for our pa
thence. If anathemas or smoke would kill them
their race should be ended; but both are inef-
fective, and we continue to groan under prickly
heat rats more plentiful than ever they were
in Egypt, pismires running over our table in
droves and mosquitoes thicker and more anoy-
ing than ever they were before. By and by
they will depart.
