what we learn they anticipate a lnrg
and profitable crop.
In the Senate, on June 2, Mr. Patter
son introduced a bill for the relief o
Robert Smalls. What tli3 relief pmjc<
lor is we are not informed but it is n<
doubt a claim for services as pilot of th
steamer Planter at the time of her cs
cape.
The verdict of the cornoner's jury ii
the case of Mrs. Smith having been givei
to the grand jury, that body gave tb
case a very through investigation, bu
elicited no evidence to show that th
deceased lady had been unfaithful ti
her husbdnd.
The frrand inrv rniinrtiit Mint
careful examination of all the circum
stance* connected with this case th
grand jury can sec no cause to susprc
that this unfortunate lady came to he
death by any other hand out her own."
The follownig is a copy ol the p ipe
found in her room and identifiud by he

Mr. Editor.
We suggest that some measur r b
taken to stay tiic incoming tide of vie
among us. There seems to be 110 obsta
clc in the way of an easy estahHshmcn
of whatever form of iniquity onechoosest
introduee. Willing landlords arc foum
to rent their buildings at a high price t
| whoever may apply, no matter for wha
purpose required. Vice is contagion
and these plague spots will consume th
vitals of our moral and pecuniary pros
perity. bet fidelity to right nm
conscience 0:1 the part of those who dc
p'ore the evil among us decide the teri;
of its existence.
