The Star of the ninth instant furnishes Us
with the following interesting details of the
commerce of that port:
The bark Eva, Captain Slater, on Sunday,
the third sailed fl om our bay to Liverpool.
towed to sea by the steam tug Rolla, pilot
ed by our best known pilot, Valentine Del
mas, loaded with square hewn timber,
shipped by Mr.. j. Durel, agent for Messrs.
Bercier g. De Smet, of New Orleans.
Accompanying Captain Slater to sea
were Captain Rosewarne, of British bark
Punjaub, and Captain Hogg, OF British
bark Eva Carvill, who took occasion to
Pass. While under tow Captain Rose
warne took the lead and sounded the entire
| way, from anchorage to sea, and found.
even on the shallowest part of the bar, no
soundings less than over eighteen feet, not
counting the lead, which is an allowance of
good foot, and this in an ordinary spring
tide.
We also, in justice to Captain Slater,
state that during the entire time OF the
Evas loading the weather has proved I'M
usually unprOpitiOus, more 30 than at any
other season within the recollection of the
oldest inhabitant. Two heavy storms, at
least, occurred within this period. During
one, Captain Slater had 200 sticks along
side, at the other ITO sticks, yet he lost not
one stick. This speaks much for the vigi-
lance Of the captain, and exhibits the Sc
curity and safety of our bay as a haven,
particularly when we consider the great
losses which have been incurred during the
same weather, in timber, at Pensacola.
There are two other British vessels, above
named, in our port at present, loading with
timber for the United Kingdom. and we
hope that they will meet with better
weather in loading at the end, and as good
success. The captains of these three YES
sells are clever, high toned gentlemen who do
honor to their profession. and as the other
two will sail in few days, we wish them
propitious gales and un bon royage, and hope
they will soon revisit our port.
The Genitcre, German vessel, Captain
BONES. arrived last Saturday, to load also
with timber for Antwerp.
January-Clsarances %; APPS, 23O feet of

The most continent and pure minded men &C.

these causes we frequently meet with men Of good
intellect, high moral worth and refinement who
in consequence OF infirmity. suffer much mental
distress. amounting to profound melancholy Such
MINT, and should enlist our best efforts Some
practitioners affect great indifference and even
aversion to individuals who are in suffering con
ditisn from the disease under consideration. Such
patients, although they may be reaping the re-
wards Of their own folly. are, nevertheless, the
very who have special need of correct counsel;
and are. for the most part, in just the frame Of
mind to appreciate advice fifty reI dered by a

| always appeared strange to me why treatment of
| these diseases should remain abandoned by re-
| spectacle members OF the profession to the oeneht
OF quacks and those vile harpies who prey on this

Medical men are too apt to treat the complaints
Of such patients lightly, making no effort to aliay
their anxiety-8 course which often leads them TO
apply for aid in illegtimate quarters, and to be-
| come the victims of unprincipled men.
The brain is usually the first organ to give indi.
