Kansas Ie'ter.wriler, who recently came
down The Missouri on the steamer Omaha,
says:
"At Atchlson, we took on young belle,
whose only atlendan, was young Missouri

dressed in the latest agony and style OF fash +;
ion; the chaste straw hat, the innumerable
founces and wIde.spreading hoops of her
gay striped silk dress, set of her command

young belle was behind the curtain, and is

MADNESS CURED BY Folly Old DR.. Rush
of Philadelphia, used 10 relate singular
case OF monomania in patient n The Phila.
del phia Hospital. He took it inhis head that
he was painter, and resolutely refused for
a long time, possessing fine organs of speech,
TO utter word. The doctor one day entered
his apartment and found him skelehing on
slip of paper really beautiful rose; for he
had by long practice acquired much skill in
the art pictorial, and was very fond ofthe ac-
complshmeni. Oue day thought struck
DR.. Rush that he would surprise him into
voice by disprasing his labours, and resolved
to Try. "You are painting very handsome
cabbage there, my frieud," he observed 10
the maniac. "Cabbage good gracious,
old gentleman, does tina, look like aoabbage!
Why, sir you old fool that's rose, and IT'S

THE FALL.

"The melancholy days are come, the sad.
dest of the year." Atruth in, more sense
than one. AS Tom Hood sings:
"Summer's gone and over,
Fogs are falling down,
And with russell tinges
Autumn's doing brown.
Boughs are daily riaed
By the gusty thieves,
, And the book OF nature
Getteth short of leaves.
Round the tops of houses
Swallows as they fit,
Give, like yearly tenants,
Notices TO quit,
Skies of tickle temper
Weep by turn and laugh
Night and day together
Taking half-and-half.
