TIE new schooner John V. Jones left
this port on her maiden trip last Monday
evening. It is as fine one as ever
passed through the mouth of our river,
and is in command of Capt. : Smith, as
good sailor as ever trod deck. One
thing noticeable about the craft is
the elegance and taste with which
her cabin is fitted up, a job on which
Anton Vogt just ''let himself loose. %
May success attend it.

the strong southwest wind blew the dust
in clouds through the city, filling the
eyes of pedestrians and the wares of our
merchants with pulverized rocks in

day it was so cold that the linen busters
downed the day previous, gave way to
heavy overcoats, and that night there
was heavy frost. It was remarkable
