A Stormy Season.—Thursday and Fri
day last were the most disagreeable davs
we have bad for along while. The wind
blew heavily from the N. E. and the rains
fell in copious showers. We have learned
that the abutment of Sheppard’s Bridge
over Buffido was carried away.
Cavalry Corps.—We were verv much
pleased on Tuesday last to notice the fine
appearance of CaptI Strange’s Company of
troop. It-was the : r first appearance upon
parade, and their manoevering elicited a
good deal of praise and ^commendation.
The Company is composed principally of
young men, and a finer looking set cannot
be started any where. We cannot doubt
but that this Corps will be eminently useful
and successful. It has our best wishes for
its growth and prosperity.
Concert.—V e attended the Concert
given by Mrs. Ryan and her pupils at the
Female Academy on Thursday night. Tbo’
a bad evening, there was a good large au
dience out, who seemed highly delighted
with the performances of the evening. The
young ladies sang and played charmingly
and thus afforded the best evideuee of the
skill and practical ability of their excellent
instructress. It befog the closing of the
Term, and the day- ha\tng been.so disagree
able as to preclude the usual examination
compositions prepared for the occasion were
read. We did not hear all of these, but-
a friend who has a taste in that elegant
art, assnres us that they were equally com
mendable and creditable to their authors.
On Saturday evening Mrs. Ryan and
her young ladies, with several of our ama

We were glad to see that they had a full

An Important Bill.— We notice that
Mr. V Alton of Richmond, has introduced

er motive could be urged, should induce

he different topics discussed, the. condition
of the country, its foreign and domestic re
lations, in a very clear and succinct manner.
In speaking of the Treasury department
he says—
/‘At the close of the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1852, there remained in the
treasury a balance of fourteen niiUions six
tundred and thirty-two thousand one hun
dred and thirty six dollars. The public
revenue for the fiscal year ending June 30,
1853 amounted to ■ fifty-eight million one
hundred and thirty one thousand eight
hundred and sixty five dollars from cus
toms. and two million four hundred and
five thousand seven hundred and eight
dollars from public lands attd other miscel
laneous sources, amounting together to six-
ty-oue million three hundred «ind thirty
seveu thousand five hundred and Jsevcnly i
four dollars; while the public expenditures
tor the same period, exclusive of payments
on accounts of the public debt, amounted
*0 forty-three million five kindred and fifty
four thousand two hundred and sixty-
two dollars; leaving a balance of thirty two
million four hundred and twenty^ve thous
and four hundred and -forty seven dollars of
receipts above expenditures.
The report of the Secretary of the Treas
urer, the President regards as affording
ample proof of the entire adequacy of the
present fiscal system to meet all the re
quirements of the public service. Ue re
commends an enlargement of the Navy so
as to make it commensurate with the mag
nitude of our commercial and other inter
ests. lie recommends also an augmenta-
ion, or modification of the army system,To
ulapt it to the present extended limits and
frontier relations of the country, and the
condition of the Indian tribes in the interi
or off he continent. The Report from the
Post Office Department exhibits a deficien
cy of upwards of two millions of dollars;
a great cause of which is attributed to the
enormous rates which the Department has
been compelled to pay for mail service ren
dered 5 by railroad.Companies.
He adverts to the judicial system as
ueeding some attention, so as to place all
States upon an equal footing in regard to
the judicial tribunals.
The President adverts to the Maitin
Kosta affair, and approves the course pur
sued by Capt. Ingraham, and the policy in
dicated by the Secretary of Slate in his iet
ter to the Austrian Charge.
Id relation to the Pacific Rail Road, the
President thinks that the magnitude of the
enterprise, has excited an interests through
out the country that will comtfie nd some
consideration, and that it has some com
mercial and military bearings which would
give it some interest to the Government ;
yet he is opposed to its being made a gov
ernment work, and thinks that anv aid
which the government might be disposed to
give, should be incidental rather than pri
mary.
In relation to Compromise Measures, the
President.says;
It is no part of my purpose to give prom
inence to any subject which may properly
be regarded as set at rest by the deliberate
judgement of the j*eople. * But while the
present is bright with promise, aud the fu
ture full of demand and inducement for the
exercise of active intelligence, the past can
never be without useful lessons of admoni
tion and instruction. If its dangers serve
uot as beacons, they will evidently tail to
fulfil the object of a wise design.” When
the grave shall have closed overall who are
now endeavoring to .meet the obligations
of duty, the year 1850 will be recurred to
a? a period filled frith anxious apprehension.

Mr. Editor:—As the Slate.election has
passed off, and with it. as a natural conse
quence,'a great deal of lhai newspaper jar
gon of which such excitements are a fruit
ful source, I beg leave to offer my feeble
mite towards the relief of that almost intol
erable monotony,'which always supervenes,
and which is painfully felt among the good
citizens of your quiet village ; aud as the
weekly issue ot the “Central Georgian” is
anxiously anticipated by them, as a tempo
rary palialive of their miseries, if I can, bv
a slight variation of the scene, prolong its
soothing influence, my charitable design,
will be entirely , accomplished : Perhaps 1
can iu.no way su^erve my purpose better
thau by a reference to the phazes of city
life, which here present themselves, leaving
you to draw a comparison with those of
your own quiet village, and to conclude
w hether or not you would be pleased with
the exchange.
To one,i«ho perhaps, has never ventured
farther from home than to the district pre
cinct, or perhaps to town once a year to see
the militia parade, (which is indeed to such
au one, a slight acquaintance with “the El
ephant,”) a city presents many aud varied
novelties, and from the host of sign boards
and “shingles,” with writing on them, sus
pended m mid air, to attract the attention
of the passer by—he is constantly in great
dauger of dropping cur-chug into some dir
ty cellar, from the great propensity of his
body, to follow the direction of his pedal
extremities ; added to this, is the verv em
inent danger of having yourself turned from
a straight-forward direction to an angle of
forty five degrees, and of having your per
pendicularity of position very much inter
fered with by the unmerciful jolts of the
hundreds who are constantly meeting and
passing you on every side, and who, from
the speed with which they go, and the very
summary manner which they have of re
moving from their bee line of direction, those
who are so unfortunate as to get in their
"'uy:—you would suppose each one some
distinguished character; at least you
would be well convinced of the fact, that he
considered jl your duty to “clear the track ;’’
indeed, you will be almost forced to regard
every man as a two legged steam engine,
so steadily do they adhere to their line of
direction ! And to wish they would place
in some conspicuous position, say for in
stance the front of their hat, that very be
nevolent sign, which railroad companies
have adopted, viz:—“Look out for the en-
gine when the whistle blows.” So that by
the time a fellow gets to pulling the ropes
pretty well, his arms are perfectly sore.
Well then, you dare not leave the street
on which the omnibus left you, for so intri
cately do the streets intersect each other,
and so same-like the appearances presented
by them all, that once off from the door of
your hotel, and you are lost amid their
winding mazes. Well then what are you
to do ? Every body is going with such lo
comotive spe d, that you conclude the im
portance of his business is so great that it
wouldn’t be right to stop him : just at this
distressing moment the recollection of your
early imbibed notions of the “devilme'nt and
mischief making nature” of ci.ty folks comes
periepce of yours, dfc., most respectfully.
[ very well remember the feelings of horror
which took possession of me upon hearing
the alarm of 'the first fire I evef, witnessed*
ihe thought of universal destruction, hnd
of death, the most awful, was Upp- erwos t ; iQ
my mind, nor “would it do- AU> ” “Famil
iarity, however, bree ^ contempt;” it is the
fact with myself ; uot tbat j wisb pers<M18
to suffer fcoui awful consequences, but
since they do occur, Ram fond of witnessing
tim'd : chere is a feeling of grandeur, yea,
» fublimity that pervades the soul, as with
! glaring tongues the monster seems to lick
the skies.
On last Sabbath night, there was consid
erable excitement in consequeuce of an
alarm of fire; the streets were in a perfect
uproar, as .it was at an early hour; the min
gled cries of men, women and chitdien, to
gether with the ominous ringing of the fire
bells, and the heavy tread of the firemeu,
hastening on to the scene of destruction—
produce an effect, which, to the uninitiated
truly awful.
Well, when the engines had arrived, and
everytning got in readiness for a fearful
combat with the dreaded monster, to our
dismay, it was ascertained that the cisterns
held no water, while the fearful flames seem
ed to be sporting with each other in mock
ery of our weakness, until at last a tremen
dous building, 16 in length, by 20 in
breadth, was completely annihilated, and
the only relic of its lofiy remains is a sroai)
pile of gray ashes.

artists who may be almost starving for want
of the patronage lavi.-hed on humbugs.
Some of these artists have been compelled
by poverty to paint very pour, pictures, that

for which our worldmenders have Bot yet
found a remedy.
It will be gratifying to your readers and
the friends of humanity in all parts of the
country, to learn that the notorious locality
denominated the “Five Points,” urthis city,
which was for years, the lowest haunt of
the vilest perpetrators of evevy species of
iniquity, has ariseti to a comparatively high
position in the scale of morality... Through
the exertious of Rev. Mr. Pease, one of our
city missionaries, large numbers of ferocious
thieves and abandoned females have been
brought to a proper appreciation of the evil
nature oflher lives, aud have beeome useful
men aud women, who are seeking, honestly,
the means of livelihood. Mr. Pease has ac
complished his work, not by the mere dis
tribution of tracts and bibkss, but bv giv
ing employ merit to the uutqrtunates, and
setting before them the contrast between a
life of virtue and a fife of vice. Such self-
sacrificing devotion to a good cause, a* is
manifested by Mr. Pease and his estimable
lady, is seldom seen; aud it is-due to him
to say, that lie entered upon bis task with
notbiug to depend upon, for the insurance
of the success gf his mission,-except his
own exertions, and a firm reliance iu the
goodness of his cause.
Wishing to air my idealty, yesterday af
