CASES OF HY DROPHOBIA IN TROUP. Mr. Editor:—The citizens of LaGrange were not a little alarmed on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, being the 15th, 16th and 17th of August, by the appear ance of a something, rather of an animal form about it, which frothed, foamed, fumed, snorted, (and aa Luvin Racket would have it,) rated and ranted, roar ed and sweated” at such a rate, as to alarm very many of our otherwise peacea ble citizens.

The 19tli of July was a great day in “olJ Bris tol,” the leviathan iron steamer built at that port having been then hauled out of dock, and Prince Albert, with a host of lords, ladies, and distin guished foreigners being present to witness the ceremony. It is conjectured that fully one hun dred thousand persons occupied the surrounding heights, and the scene was altogether very stri king.
