A New DoDGE, OR AN ORR ONE
REvrvBp.--.Some persons has been
raising the wind by writing letters in
forming individuals that he has ascer-
tanned that family with which they
are corrected is entitled to large
estate, now in chancery 10 England,
awaiting only proper proofs of descent,
and that he will furnish them with a
pamphlet containing full particulars,
on the receipt by mail of 81. They
are addressed to the law firm, Graham
King u Perkins. No such firm is to
be found in the New York Directory,
nor any individuals rejoicing in the
name of ID. Austin Graham, b. G. King
OFT. G. Perkins, by which names the
partners are designated in the letters.
Persons Of The name of Austin are
favored with letters from the first nam
ed, while the last named, addresses
members Of the Perkins family. Look

JApoStcADoM in DEspA1R.--By last
dates from New York, we learn that
the ha6itues Of the Italian Opera were
in a state bordering on distraction
Lagrange had sung her last swan-like
note to them, and "una furtiva Ia
grima" was 90 every cheek. J" What
shall we do without Lagrange and the
opera p was the question on every
band. Thus true is it, that often quot
ed line in the " Night Thoughts"
"How blessings brighten as they take their fight"
Between the acts of the "Trayata, :"
on her last appearance at the Acade-
my, prior to her departure for Havana,
land may we not hope for New Or
leans p Lagrange had presented to
her q beautiful bracelet, which she
wore during the remainder of the even
ing. 1t represents claster of almonds
the shells partly open, displaying a
cluster of diamonds. The
price Of the bracelet was 81, GOO, and
the subscriptions were made up among
the stockholders Of the Academy
Picayuns. &
