MANIA PorU.--A gentleman of middle age
was attacked with delirium tremsns. He
fought the surrounding snakes for few days
and then told his friends that he was dead.
He lay stretched apon his bed for some
minutes, when he arose, walked into another
room and complained that he had forgotten
something in his will. He added codieii,
requesting his employers to take his son into
their employment as his successor in hia bus
ness. He returned to the room, looked upoa
the bed and began to rave because bis body
had been stolen, asserting that he left upon
the bed few moments before, and that some
of the attendants had taken it away. Soon
the stuper came upen him again, when he
laid himself down, and the tongue that had
before so wildly insisted on its possssaov's
decsase, was stilled in the cold embrace Of
death, .|

the city. Your paper, as conservator of
the public interests, has iabored rightiully
for the welfare and general improvement of
Norfolk. 1t may be this has escaped ysur
notice. allude to New Castle street, at
the upper end of Main, leading through
Wide Water to the landing of the Balti'
more boats. AS it is now, it is a complete
nuisance, and equally fit subject for the
Board of Health. For beings dirt street,
no restrictions are placed on its usage, and
all kinds Of filth and refuse matter find
most impossible on account of the mud, and
mediately finds resting place. This street
is a constant channel of com nunicatisn
with these boats, and is at all times passed
over by vehicles of every description, and is
too the line of travel to and fro between
Wide Water street and the Rail Road De-
pot.
That such public and mach used avenue
should escape attention is surely because
the circumstances of its situation are not
fully known. That far inferior and less i'm
portant streets, and even alleys, have been
paved is but comparative argument. We
urge its necessity as matter of public poll
cy, as a safeguard of health, as demanded
by the business interests, but more especially
from its wretched condition.

.PREsENTATIoN-U ne9pected-C Capt vicke-
y,of the N l. A Blues, was made the recipient
last evening, of one OF the most beautiful
uniform caps we have ever seen. The cap,
plume, pompone, &C., were after the style
worn by the Blues, but were beautifully
embroided in gold, and finished in the most
supurb style of the hatter's art. The cap
was presented by V. NJ. Brandon, private
in the Blues, in neat and appropriate
speech, which was replied to by Captain
sickory in graceful manner. The cap,
&C., was the gift of the Blues to their com
mander, in slight token of their appreciation
OF his worth as captain, and their respect
and esteem for him as a man.
SUDDEN SoBALL.-A sudden squalI of wind
sprung up about 81 O'Clock, yesterday at
ternoon, which raised clouds of dust, filled
the eyes Of the pedestrians with the pulver-
ised deposits Of the street, broke sundry
kites loose, slammed numerous saut tiers, and
acted in numerous other rude, boisterous
and unbecoming ways. A Turk, who came
here in vessel as sailor, encountered one
of the many clouds Of dust which swept
down Wide Water street, and under the i'm.
preston that it was one of those simoons
peculiar to his native desert, was heard to
exclaim, Allah as he threw himself upon
bis face, nd allowed the cloud to pass; he
then got up, Rubbed his eyes and exclaimed,
"Allah! be praised" and went on board of
his vessel better pleased with this city thaa
ever, because it possessed one of the charac-
teristics of his own native land.
"Allah be praised no special damage
was done.
