M The Physicians who promptly attended the
I gessian of the Board this miming, agree in stnl
■ j„n-thal fewer oases of Fever have occurred lalc-
M i, ,an I that the type of the disease is much niild
m er than at first.
■ Tlie Physicians are also of opinion, that the
■ disease is the Bilious Fever of the season and eli
f mate, aggravated hy some local causes, but troin
the diminution in its virulence, they are of opin
ion that the cause has been in a measure remov
ed.
The Board trust that the lessening of the ma
lignity of the disease which has already taken

new publications; circulars, written or printed;
olterv bills and advertisements, blank forms, and

Sec. 59.—P Wishers of pamphlets and ma

down.
Sec. 60. —The cover of a pamphlet or maga

mailer printed on it be a part of the body of the

al advertising.
T.ikvpv with Sauiiinta. — file Puis cor
resp hi,lent of the New York Herald Wiilcs that
Mr. Niles has concluded, at Turin. a tionly be
tween the United States and Sardinia, which
promises beneficial results to the commerce ol
this country. The writer says :
By this treaty American shipments, such as
Cotton, Tobacco, and colonial produce, which
hitherto have only found their ways into Italy
through the circuitous routes, ot the English.
Dutch auul French markets, can now be import
ed direct front our pons. Thus a cause ot una
voidable expense ami extra charges to say noth
ing of the share of profit retained by each inter
medtlary, will be removed; and the difference in
freight alone, will sulli e to create an additional
consumption. For the minor ports being, by
the treaty, opened to <>itr trade, supplies can be
sent direct to places hitherto dependent on the
German market; and it is worthy of n nice, that
these benefits are not limited to the Sardinian
dominions, hut will open a communication with
all the neighboring stales and territories border
ing the Mediterranean,
The 14th article of the treaty is wholly new in
Us provisions; it secures to our produ ts, and to
those of other countries imported from the Unit
ed States, the advantage of free I runs,/ from
Genua., to all other countries beyond the Sardi
nian frontier ; and further, a free transit to Genoa
for the productions of those countries wlm h are
d*»tmedfir the United S ales, Thus every ob
stacle is rernoveu to an unfettered trade with
Switzerland and the South of Germany—every fa
cility is allbrded for free purchase and sale, the
only condition on which a mutually profitable
trade can he carried on, and the productions of
the respective countries can reach their destined
ina'kcls wholly untaxrd.
This wise and liberal concession, on the part
of the S trdinian overnmeut. not only opens a
new fi. hi for our industry, and commercial en
terprise in the interior of Europe; it has also ef
fectually established the commercial indepen
dence of Switzerland ami Southern Germany.
The prohibitions, transit duties, and various em
barrassments which have hitherto placed the for
eign trade of those countries at the mercy of in
tervening powers, o ust now he abolished on oil
sides, or Genoa will exclusively enjoy the carry
ing trade between Swit/.eiland, Gciinmiy, and
Upper Italy, and foreign nations.
A Paris broker has already given orders for
the direct importation of a few cargoes of Tobac
co from New Orleans to Genoa, to he earned in
trunstdii under die provisions of the treaty, to
countries beyoiWSardinia. This is a prompt and
promising resell for the planters, and orders for
cotton and sugar will soon follow.
A Sru'miiiiEU. —The following is the amount
of arde/t spirits consumed annually in this great
free, pal civilized British empire. We have co
picd'lt bom the returns:
England. Ireland, Scotland,
papulation 13 897 187 7,767 4jl 2 305 114
Gals olspts. 12.341,238 12 293 640 6,767 715
The statement is a truly frightful one. ami well
calculated to make all lovers of their counit v and
of humanity to pause and reflect, On calculating,
we find that this return of spirits leaves seven
pinls and one ninth to each and every individual
in England ; thirteen pints to every inhabitant of
Ireland; ami twenty-three pints to each religious,
moral, enlightened, sagacious, and cautious citi
zen in Scotland!!!! On the supposition that
only one-sixlh ol the qu unity consumed in Scot
land is drunk liy the women and children, who
certainly constitute three-fourths ol the popula
tion. what a fearful quantity of liquid fire must
fall to the share of the men. — John o’ Gmat's

“VicrotiiA Fashions.—Tim vkiiv last.—
We have been shown, by a friend just arrived
from the city, a pair of Victoria Garters—the only
kind now affected by the English ladies. The
embroidery is superb the agralle unique; and in
settling this new fashion, the maiden Queen has
taken occasion to prove her national spirit by
commemorating one of the proudest events in
English history—the battle of Trafalgar. They
have a device, a miniature representation ol that
naval engagement; and a motto, the eloquent one
then displayed— ■ England exjiecls every man to
du his duty /’ ”
“How no you Sweat?” —ln the East Indies
this is the common salutation on meeting a
friend; and the response-to it is an indication of
the person’s health. There is much more mean
ing in it than there is in our very eqni oral hut
customary greeting of “How do you do?” In
a.I warm climates a free perspiration is the best
indiealion of the health of the body. On the
contrary, the moment the pores are closed ami
the skin becomes dry, it is necessary to begin to
think of the doctor or the apothecary.—A r . U.

The Louisiana Chronicle passes a high, and
for aught we know, a well deserved encomium
on the Superintendent of the Mint. It seems he
was formerly a resident of our sister Parish and
the editor says he is ‘ by his amn unw-.sis/i d ex
ertions. the father of a nmnerousand acc* mplisb
etl family o*’ children.” We should take this a
rather a peculiar way of paying him a conij li

From the quarterly report of the fire eommis
sioners u. the city ol New Vork it appea s that
the number of fires in that city during the three
months ending on the 30th tilt was 64. Toe
property destroyed is valued a $69,186, of which
$34,434 were covered by insurance. Nineteen
ol the fires were occasioned by incendiaries, and
seventeen by defects in the construction of chim
neys, &c.
An A'al» Pirate.
The most successful and most generally tolt". 1
ated pirate that, perhaps, ever infested any sea,
was an Arab chieftain by ih° name of lialirnah j
Jaubir. This butcher chief escaped the ven- i
geance of our expedition, tor he was 100 knowing j
a fellow to instill the British (1 ig ; and it was the
policy of our Govern mem logj-e no offence to ;
tne Wahabee power whom hose ved. K.ihmah. 1
like an ien* Pistol exclaimed, • The world’s mine
oyster, whi'h I with sword will open ” He pi- !
rated for himself, and po-.ket d his booty. His
thousand followers also squab 1 d for (he loaves
and fishes; and as the greater number of these
were his own bought slaves, and the rest equally j
subject to his power anil caprice, lie was often as
prodigal of their lives as those of his enemies,
who. even alter submission were inhumanly tor
tured. some hy impalement, unit others hy being
emliowelled. He once shut up a number of his
own crew in a wooden lank, in which ho kepi
their fresh water.and threw tin m alio erhoard.
I was present at the last interview this bucca
neer had with the English. It was at Busline. in
the British residency, in the presence ot that ac
compli lied ollieer, General iSir Eprhaim Slannus,
who was then holding t'.e high otliee of political
resident in tie (lull ol Persia. Uahniuh s ap
pearance was most ferocious. His shirt had inn
been changed from the time it was first put on ;
no trowsers covered his spindle shanks; a capa
cious woollen cloak, or uhlmh. encircled his shri
velled figure; an old ragged kt fish, or hendker
chief. with green and yellow stripes were thrown
over his head. His dry sapless body was riddled
with wounds, and his wizened face most fearfully
distorted hv sabre gashes and hy the loss ol an
eye. His hands were long and narrow like the
claws of a bird of prey, and his hit arm ha-.i
been shattered hv eannister shot. The bone be
tween the (dhow and shoulder being completely
crushed to pieces, the fragments had worked
themselves out. exhibiting the arm and elbow ad
* boring to the shoulder hy flesh and tendons alone,
Notwithstanding this, he valued it lor its uselul
properties. ‘ For,” said he, stretching out his
long ghastly finger, adorned with the only orna
ment he wore, a huge, silver mounted seal-ring,
engraved with Arabic character, "1 wish nothing
heller than the cutting oft' with my yambee-ahh.
of as many heads as [ can se> er at one blow w ith
I my boneless aim.'’
I This brutal corsair put to sea on a cruising ex
pedition accompanied hv the fleet of Joassimee
lioals, which had also escaped the notice of our
1 expedition. A desperate action was fought he
■ I tween Rahnvih's fleet and the Uttohee Arabs ol
• Bahrain, in wh'ch the foimer was signally vielo
' rious. Among numerous captures, were two
• haghalahs hound to India, having on hoard se>or
al valuable Arabian horses for the Bombay gov
‘ eminent, on aeeouio of the, stud establishment ol
' the presidency. These he most carefully trnn
-1 shipped, and had them most safely landed at
" Bombay. Subsequently, he cruised ofl’ Bahrain
for the purpose of intercepting other Joassimee
boats, which frequented that island for pearls
r rice and dales. t,| his action with them he
sank three, alter taking mu their cargoes; four he
1 blew up for the want of hands to lniln them; and
’ the same number he brought into lUishire roads
for sale. Having efteeted his object, hi stood
r 1 away to the southward, and continued cruising
between the piratical port of Riis-ul-Khymah
and the pecrl banks of Bahrain, pursuing his
t course of tea less, lawless rapine. No corner of
t the. Gulf was secure from his ravages; he swept
from shore to shore, and passed from isle to isle,
with the forte of a thunderbolt and with the
speed of the lightning. He even threatened to
attack both Busline and Bassorah. A late Brit
ish resident actually made preparations for the
removal of his family to Shirauz. and Bushire
itself was placed in the most eft'Henl stab of de
fence. But here the corsair’s career was destined
I to close.
One fine monimg when the grey mists evapo
rated and left a clear line of horizon, it w,\s sud

laid alongside and prepared to hoard her on the
gangway. When his intentions were question
ed. the <>i ly reply he would give, or that could he
distinguished hv his antagonist, was—"M hat is
that to yon? ’ On rashly attempting to hoard
Bahmah’s men were met on all quarters and le
came completely overpowered hy a superior nu
merical force. Hastily demanding of his crew
whether they would not perish hy the annihila
tion of their foes, and being answered hv their
war-cry in defiance, he rushed below, attached a
natch to his powder barrel, returned on (Its k
and sprang upon the poop w ith his only son in
his arms. The match ignited, and the vessels,
slid firmly grappling, hurst together into a thou
sand atoms and were hurled ihrough the air in
the midst of a volcano of smoke and tlanic.
The Chinese Ami r.—The Canton Register
intimates that although the Chinese army nomi
nally amounts to I.TOt’.IOO men, yi t, lor the
