Editor CreScent-Sir; Knowing that you are
always ready and willing to do justice to your fell
owcitizens, by bringing the wrongs they suffer be-
fore the public, through the columns of your val
liable journal, submit the following for the bene-
fit of its readers and merchants in general:
On or about the first of January the collector Cf
customs gave out a contract for the hauling of
bonded merchandise from vessels to the United
States customs warehouses situated at the custom
house, on Bienyile street. between Royal and
Bourbon streets, and on LeVee street, between
Julia and Notre Dame streets.
You will observe there is no mention made OF
private bonded warehouses in the above contract
Notwithstanding this fact the present contractor
claims the hauling of all bonded merchandise to
public or private stores, aud the merchant is de
priycd of the right of hauling his own goods. Ever
when his drays standing at the store idle he
has topay contractor often exorbitant price fol
the hauling of said goods, whereas he could hau
them with his own dray or have the same hauled
by others for less money, with great saving t.
the merchant in the hauling and taking care o
the goods, whereas the contractor is only respoE
sibe to the collector and not to the merchants tn
men directly interested in the goods.
Some months ago the principal importers an
JoUOefs Oh thls city mad petition signed and pre-
scented to the collector of the port, praying tina
the contract be annuled, as it had proven very il
furious to them in respect to the charges for hau
ing and the carlessness with which the goods wer
handled, often causing leakage and breakage, wit
heavy loss to the owners of said merchandise.
These same merchants likewise offered an
agreed to furnish any amount of security ask
that they be allowed the privilege of having the
goods hauled by their regular draymen.
But there seems to have been no notice taken
this petition, for since it has been presented wei
personally with written order from the owner
the goods Zone of the largest importers of sug
and coffee in this city, asking the privilege
haul said merchandise to private bonded stores.
was informed by the deputy collector that it cou
not be permitted Not having heard of any actic
that had taken place to have this monopoly brokt
up, 1 take this method of bringing the same befo
the public. Yours, respectfully, DRAyMAN.

GREY JACKET BlrTERs.-The advertisement of
Messrs Barnett Lion, manufacturers of the
above named popular tonic, and specific for
cholera, will no doubt disappoint many specula-
tors who, supposing that there would be a cessa-
ton of its manufacture on account of the fire in
which one of the stores of Messrs. B. g. L. was
destroyed, were calculating to make pile by put
ting up the price, knowing that the public must
have it, they would pay almost any amount for it.
But as we said before, the manufacturers have no
doubt disappointed them, for they announce that
the fire, although subjectng them to severe loss,
will not prevent them from continuing to manu-
facture BED jacket in quantities sufficient to sup
ply the demand. We invite The attention Of our
readers to the advertisement,

PLEYEL PtANos.-We were in conversation with
celebrated musician some years since, and upon
mentioning the pianos of Pleyels manufacture,
we asked him what was his opinion of them.
Sir" said he, the Pleyel piano is like a
diamond, it is the best Of its kind. You buy a
diamond to-day and give thousand dollars for it,
it will be worth at least eight hundred to your
grand children. So it is with Pleyel piano. I
have known three generations learn and play upon
the same instrument, and it delighted them all.
Fashion changes and deteriorates the value of the
setting of a diamond but the brilliant is always
there. The change of popular taste deteriorates
the value of the case of the Pleyel piano but the
divine sounds can always be produced by touching
the keys" We were reminded of this converse.

TO LYDIA,


In youths bright morn, when life was new,
And earth was fresh with dew ana flowers,
And love was warm and friendship Tue,
And hope and happiness were ours, .1
We started hand in hand to thread
The checkered, painful path OF life,
And with each other trusting tread
The battle-felds OF worldly strife.
We ranged in walks obscure, unseen D
Ger rugged steep, thrugh vale and glen,
And climbed along the hillsdes green,
Unmlndful of The future then
We caught the song of earliest birds,
We culled the oyeliest flowers of spring,
We pighled love IN Whispering words
And time sped by ON fairy wing.
And as it passed new joys were found
And life was giaddened by the birth
OfpTatthng ba0es, who c ,ustered round,
To cheer with SMILES our humble hearth.
Fate thrust us forth before the world,
And phRntoms whispered earthly fame,
Where hopes proud banuer is unturled,
And happiness too oft name.
Thus lured along, we rode the dark
And IoaminP tide OF public llle,
And proudly dare d, with sp endld bark,
The elements of stoim aud strne.
But storm and strife thank Heaven have passed;
The night has fled, and morning come!
And we tossed Mariners at last
Returned once more TO heartn and home.
But of the loved ones God had given,
Two have returneu--twO sank 10 rest,
in life s gay morning cal ed 10 Heaven,
To the bright mans on OF the Dlest.
They sleep amid spring forest gades.
Where flows S stream ets' murmurinR waves !;
And oft at evenings gentle shades
Win weeu beside ther cary graves.
