/ We hope our readers will ,e*cu*e the scanty
appearance of editorial matter in this week's paper;
which ift o.wing to the sudden indisposition oi the
. Editor. * . *. *
Sotrte or the oitiiens' of Georgia had a meeting
' a few days ago, arid after talking about the 'times,'
concluded to have the Legislature called together
for the.purpose of lendi nsr the.people five millions
of dollars, and appointing committees to vi?dt the
peyeral Banks?have a friendly ??hnt?take dinner
with tKe Presidents?go home?and report favora
^lf* ,
We see In one of the Charleston papers the Report
of the Board of Health of that city, which
states that "the apprehension of the existence' of
Asiatic Cholera in this City, has proved to be
unfounded." We are truly .happy to learn that
the report which we received (by letter) fVom
Charleston last week-respecting the Cholera in
that City is unfounded.^
Firf and.loss of life.?On Saturday morning
in N.Y. about 2 o'clrfck, the "U.S. Public Store No.
' 107 took fire in the second story, and was burnt
down. One of the firemen, in attempting to save
a lad, who he discovered in a dangerous situation,
was killed by the falling ruins.
We learn from the New York Gazette; that the
late William Y. Birch, left to the Philadelphia Institution,
for the Blind, the munificent sum of
$130,000. Queue ?Was it trpucit.
We are informed that the Lieutenant Governor
of Upper Canada, Jjas issued his Proclamation
convening the Parliament of that Province on the
19th inst., " for the actual dispatch of public
business."
Gen.Jesuo, (sa'vs the Army and Navv Chronicle}
has asked to he relieved from his command in
Florida, hut has been informed^tliat his services
cannot be dispensed with until the Indians shall
have been removed from the limits of the Territory.
.
We notice the following statement in the Baltimore
Gazette of a vessel having left Mobile and
arrived at Liverpool in the short space of 22 days.
* i lie new ualumore built ship ivichard Anderson,
Capt. Tlios. Lucas, arrived at Liverpool* on
the 2d "May froin Mobile, in 22 days. Her passage
fro n Cape flatteras to Liverpool, was made in lf?
day*, when she received the Pilot, on hoard.?
This we have reason to believe is one of the short*
est passages on record "
We are informed bv a northern paper that Dofp
Green has started a new paper at the city ol
Baltimore, called the "Merchant." The Globe
seems to think that the name has been suggested
by the New York and Boston Merchants. Duff
knows how
The New York Courier and Enquirer says, that
another public meeting had taken place in the
Park, of the unemployed operatives, on the subject
of employment. 'The number assembled was about
two hundred,.who received an address from some
person whose name was not known: who violently
opposed the Ranks, Speculators and Monopolists.
The address was received wilh nnanimous applause.
A committe of six was then appointed to address
the Council oh the subject of relief.
Communications.
Mr. Editor:?Hear Sir?The communication
which appeared in your paper last week, bearing
thfe signature of-" P. C,"-however it may have
been construed by some, I disavow any individual
allusion whatever. To those who inay have considered
it as such, I hope this may be deemed a
sufficient explanation. Yours very truly,

That lovely woman aye should bend

A REVIEW OF "EQ.U1TY," "SEN EX," "FANNY
j" ?W.U and "P. C."
Mr. Editor:?I have observed in your |
paper for several weeks back, commutii- }
cations over the above signatures, which ,
I beg leave thro* your columns to review. ,
I In the first place, " Equity,'* which appeared
a few weeks ago, was very well- |
i timed and much called for and ought to j
j have been noticed by our town authorities
jlong ere this, in order to prevent the ears
I of those of our citizens who have occa- i
,1 A i , i . ?
, sum iu puss oy uiose rioious nouses, irom
being saluted with the protanity of their
abandoned inmates.
With 44Senex," I am highly pleased?
lie thinks as I do, 44 that the loaf of bread
vended in our town should be made better
and larger." I think, Sir, that Mr. 44 Se*
nex" must he a good feeder, and partial
to good eating, as ho aiso must he to a
4 plenty of it.* I do assure you 1 would
not care a groat if the Baker's would
bake their bread three times as large for
the same price. And Sir, I am almost
certain that the Town Council have the
ftigiit to regulate this matter, and, in my
humble opinion they will do it. I have
heard it said by persons more acquainted
, with this matter than f am, that *4 no Bai*
ker, (according to law,) can bake a loaf
' of bread, and sell it to his customer for
1 0 1-4 cents, unless it Weighs one pound :
and, that if a Baker should make up his
batch of bread, and the loaves should fall
short of one pound each, they should be
taken by the Town Council, and disposed
t of." Whether this be law or not, I am
fl unable to eav?hut I ran sav this mneh.?
' . ' I
Home time past, our Bakers sent us bread
which did not exceed in weight, over 10 (
ounces: flour was at that time $15 pert
barrel?and now you may purchase flour
1 from 86 50 to $7 per barrel, and yet the
loaves of bread are no larger. This mati
ter should be looked into.
P
Now to '.Fanny." This is certainly
I an elegant production! ! What think you ?
He comes out in flying colors?he is cer1
tainly a very modest young man-?he does
not pretend to any thing but modesty ! in I
his^artlcle. But mark the chastity of his
|"expresrfnjhs. ile sa^.^^tibi^&,^T>aft5er
?m1 Corns,* 4 Toft-nail*,* '* scrubbing,' and
after all, 4 stuffed.! Now I ask you Mr.
Editor, w)io ever hoard of a 4stuffM' young
lady ; and is'nt this a sublime article to
come front iho pen of Mr.
Sir 44 Fanny," yod have written some
truth?and for that you stand condemned.
I have been informed by the Editor's comment,
that you did, in vour letter td hint,
refuse to give your name. Is this not sufficient
reason for rue to say, without hesitation
that you were ashamed of your own
production. Your own did I say!?no, I
mean your adopted, of which you have aj
right so to be. You are, ho doubt, aware
that you have excited much curiosity
among our citizens, in knowing who the
writer of " Fanny" is.
Now, by way oif conclusion, let me advise
you, either to come out like a man
against 44 W." and give your name to the.
Editor of the Courier, or 44 forever hold
your peace*"
44 W." is tolerably well written?but I
must confess is not so well put together
as 44 The Toilet." He attacks 44 Fanny"
thus:
44 What vile production this?
What isolated creature thus
Pours forth his spleen, and wantonly
Belies the fairest portion of creation."
Not so fast Mr. 44 W."?44 Fanny" speaks
mostly truth : and for that I condemn
; him ; as the 44 truth should not always be
told." But you are too much disposed to
abuse and render "Fanny" contemptible.
I presume you have but little experience |
among the Fanny's or you certainly would '
credit more of his "Toilet." But as to j
- % t " % #
' ' * "
aying any Ihing further to ?Fanny," I
ear.much that neither.you nor ''hyself
rill have th? ipppbrtunily of'dping so.
I understood that he was dying, from the
rounds received' from your shot on fciatirday
last.) You have killed hi.m dead !

. P. C." is elegantly written, after the
Scottish style. [Copied, with alterations,
rom Burns', 1 think. As there has been
lome little said about it, I think 1 had

laying nothing at ai.l. I am no fighting '

VVe are indebted to commercial friends for the
following extracts of letters:
;<HAVANA, Jdne 3.?The news that all the
'Banks had suspended specie payment, makes the
sale of Bills on the United States entirely impossible,
except at sight and payable in specie to the exclusion
of all paper money. On London-, little is

rate of 4 a 4 1-2 rs. is still maintained. Tlie last
