that city in immense quantities:
The cars daily come in laden with this valua-
BILE freight which is rolled away for inspection and
then sent off to the manufacturers. No person Of
ordinary patience would attempt to count the
number of hogsheads now stored In the place we
have mentioned. As far as the eye can reach, no.

State, which brings TO the planters immense wealth,
is, we are glad to learn, likely to yield plentifully
the present year. Accounts from the tobacco
growing districts are highly favorable.

recently conferred by Queen Victoria, for time
created some surprise until II was stated by the

fered TO and declined by Admiral Napier feeling that
he could not receive reward for services IN respect
Of which he had been censJred. Admiral Dundas,
who preceded Admiral Lyons IN command Of the

ment Of Sinope, the transportation Of Russian

tons as his reward for doing nothing.
