Funeral of Captain Freese.

The remains of Captain John Freese
a former resident of Wheeling, who
died of yellow fever, at New Orleans
in August last, reached this city Oh
yesterday. We learn that the funeral
will take place frsm his late residence
on Centre street, Tomorrow afternoon
at 3 o'clock.
Captain Freese was native Of East
ern Pennsylvania, but for many years
had been one of our best and most re.
spected citizens. He was prominently
connected with steamboating, and was
we'll and favorably known to all Of oul
river men. In former years he operated
upon the Ohio river, but latterly he
commanded steamers upon the lower
Mississippi and other Southern waters
He leaves widow and two children
who in the midst of their bereavement
receive the tenderest sympathies of the
entire cOmmu nifty.

A Good Advice.

We are constrained to give some peo-
pie a good advice. We would rather
not do it, and feel certain that if they
knew what we are going to say there
would be no occasion for it to some of
them. For the last three or four months
we have observed, with feelings of
pain, a number of both fashionably and
ordinarily dressed persons perambulat-
ing our streets wearing common and
WORKOUT hats and caps. Now this dis
figures them; it destroys their beauty
and kills all their sweetness, aud should
not be tolerated. But there is REM
edy, and that remedy can be found at
the cheap hat and cap establishment Of
Harper & Bro, on Main street. We
saw a man yesterday who had bought
a hat there, which made him look so
handsome that his wife kissed him on
the street. something she had not done
for year, even in the house.

Ne Joke.
A gentleman thought he would play
a joke on lady acquaintance asd for
that purpose bought a paper of tri1 and
had them placed under her dinner
plate. 1t happened that a gent that
day occupied her place at the table and
cabbaged the trix. He was discovered,
however, for the first named gentleman
afterwards explained to the lady what
they were, and she Immediately remem-
bered that the gentlemau's breath had
lately been perfumed very sweetly, so
much so that she incurred the expense
of paper directly after. The joke was
on the first named gent.

Last evening we were shown several
pieces of coal taken from the cellar OF
Mr.. Peter Bosley, on Market street. Mr.
B. has been having some excavations
made in his cellar for the purpose OF
Improvement and discovered these
pieces buried about a foot and half
under the ground. There is nothing
singular about the coal, but it seems a
mystery how this small quantity got
there, and the improbable conclusions
is arrived at that it was washed there
years ago-many years ago-when the
river run where his house Row stands
If that is not the case the mystery re-
