1t is to be hoped that the Vestry of Christ
Church will imm sdiately put stop to the pro-
posed "extension Of the old Churh," which
will destroy its proportions, spoil its looks, and
interfere with its antiquity. There seems to be
"fdgety'3 anxiety TO alter the Church, under
the idea of Improvement. This same plan
of extension was proposed several years ago,
and met with the, nearly, unanimous condem,
nation OF the congregation. Let US have one
church. at least, lett as our fathers built it.

CONFEDERATE BONDS IN MARKET we
learn, from reliable authority, that within the
past day or two Mr.. Bernard Ayegno, one OF
orr largest brokers, has purchased two hun
dled and sixty.fve thousand dollars of per
cent Confederate bonds Of the issue Of 1861,
and three hundred thousand Of the the issue
of 1863, to fill an order either from the North
or from Europe. The prices paid we have
not been able to learn; but should not be
surprised if this were part of the sum of "a million
in Confederate percents advertised for in the
National Intelligencer Of recent date. It mis hit
ensue that in the settlement of the Alabama
and other claims between the u. S. and the
Governments of England and France, the two

repeatedly assumed, viz: that the rebelious
States were never out Of the Union; and, as
a corollary, that the parent Government Is

The Epidemic SOUTH = An old citizen Of
Texas informs lis that the epidemic which RACES
with such malignity in some parts ofthe South
and is gradually extending, cannot be arrested
at present by any human agency. Frost will
check its ra7ages, but even the limit thus pre-
scribed allows period OF four or five weeks in
which the disease will prevail nnrestrained.
The middle Of October is the earliest date that
can be fxed for the return Of cold weather. 1t
is remarked that the disease thus far has pre-
vailed chiefly among those in middle lie, oc-
casionally carrying off persons supposed to
have been acclimated, but finding most Of its
victims among the class of citizens recently
arrived from other States. For This reason
none should now venture TO enter Texas who
have not already had experience with yellow
Jack" Even the latter are liable TO attack if
brought into contact with injected clothing, or
if they enter rooms lately occupied by sufferers
from the disease Thus far very few children
are numbered among the victims, in which re-
spect the prevailing epidemic differs essentially
from the last severe visitation in the year lS5%
