DRUNK.-A venerable hog, highly re-
spectacle SOW hog at that, got beastly
drunk on brandy peaches few days ago
on Lafayette Street. The teHpting peaches
were thrown out into the street by Il reck-
less grocer, who regardless OF the moral
law, ''tempt not less ye be tempted did
thus "horn swogglc" into ways both crook
ed and dark, highly respectable and well
swine. The vederablc old pork
staggered around; supported lamp posts,
looked wise, recIined in cutters, saSsed the
police, made fight, squcalcd, got into every
Dodys way, and acted generally ~ if the
town was hos pen, and she the "Semira-
mis-" Of the age. In short she behaved as
logs usually do when drunk. However
we have great faith in the reformation Of
his venerable swine, provided no more
brandy peaches are thrown in her way.

MERCHANTS To TIE FEONT.-Thc ac-
ion Of several Of our leading merchants,

entIy wise and proper. They propose to
,ay the very highest market price for cot
on. in goods or in the settlement Of debts,
,asing the standard Of market value on the
urrency price for cotton in the leading
markets OF the country. This wise, liberal,
nd meritorious action on their part will
% much towards advancing the currency
rice for cotton in our market, and plant
RS generally would do well TO sicze this
pportunity for liquidating their debts to
merchants, and advancing the monty value
f our great staple.

patronage running back for many years,
mi which has grown with their growth
