The falling off.in 1858 was caused by the d.
version of several cargocs from Hampton
Roads to Northern ports, induced by the high
er prices which ruled in them, The same thing
occurred last year for the same reason notwitl-
standing which the increase as seen, was very
large. AT our public cargo sales in Richmond
purchases are frequently made by Northern
merchants. Last year the shipments to the
North, from our port amounted TO T,Gl4 bags,
or /, 21S,240 pounds. Richmond is destined to
become one Of the leading coffee markets in
the country.

IT'S the last Of the pickles
Left souring alone;
AL its companions
Are eaten and gone.
No kindred cucumber,
No mango so nigh,
To respond to the last pickles
Sorrowful sigh.
III not leave thee, thou lone one,
To pine in the jar.
While thy kindred are scattered
In regions afar!
Thus kindly | see thee,
And ca, thee down fast
With the mournful reflection
That thou art the last.
So soon may | follow,
When friends day by day,
From Creations vast pickel jar,
Vanish away!
Oh, who would be left,
When the loved ones have flown,
Mid life's waste Of vinegar,
Floating alone?

TIE EQUALITY OF THE GRAVE.

BY u SHIRLEY.
The elories Of our blood and state
Are shadows, not substantial things;
There is no armor against Fate
Death lays his icy hands on kings.
Sceptre and crown
Must tumble down,
And in the dust be equal made
With the poor crooked scythe and spade.
Some men with swords may reap the field,
And plant fresh laurcls where they Kill;
But their strong nerves at last must yield;
They tame but one another still.
Early or late,
They stcop TO Fate,
And must give up their murmuring breath
When they, pale captives, creep to death.
The garlands wither on your brow,
Then boast no more your mighty deeds.
Upon deaths purple altar now,
See where the yictor-rictiln bleedS.
AL heads must come
To the cold tomb!
Only the actions of The just
Smell sweet and blossom in the dust.
