The barque Thomas Pallet leavoß to-day for Phila

ment of markets and other matters. In regard to
Hides they have fluctuated within the last few days,
owing to a competition heretofore unknown to our raei

thought they will remaiu, until later advices from the

The crops have been good and abundant, and the grow

a want of pilot knowledge or by an excusable accident,
tho Vision took the ground and became p, total wreck,

of old tea in here, the whole of which Is of course gone,
though some treasure on board was promptly saved by
parlies from the Pagoda anchorage.

Serial Nolircs,
In no branch of so
much progress in a few years as in the M&rblo business,
from the simple headstone up to the most elaborately
carved and highly finished monument.
Our attention was called to this fact on passing tho
oXtensivo Marble Works of Hekuv S Tabs, Green
Street, above Seventh, where we saw erected in the
yard a handsome tomb, or monument, of an exceedingly
novel and original construction, and calculated to strike
the eye at a glance, by its beautiful proportions, rich
workmanship, and Imposing appearance.
The bottom base consists of two blocks of Pennsylva
nia marble, about seven feet by four, in tho rustic
style ) on this rests two Italian bases, moulded and re
cessed back. Above this are two blocks, carved with
lions’ claws, one at each end, intendod as a support for
the die ; on these rests the die, or principal part of the
toiub, which Is carved with oak leaves and other de
vices ; and oneoch corner is a beautifully carred seraph’s
face and wings The top finishes with a rich moulding.
In the centve of tho die stands a smaller die and pedes
tal, on which, sumiountiug the whole, stands a splen
didly carved figuro representing Time and Eternity,
forming at once something grand and imposing, attract
ing the attention of every beholder, and, no doubt,
gratifying the eye of every one.
Such of our cititens as contemplate erecting some
thing of tho kind to the memory of their deceased
friends or relatives, would do well to call and examine
It, as it will well repay a visit, and we understand will
be disposed of on reasonable terms. au29-lt

The work you propose will be a very valuable contri

Greene’s letters. They are marked by a peculiar felicity
of style, a clearness of conception, a llueucy of language,
a depth of thought and a range of ideas, which prove at
once tho power aud versatility of bh mind. Ills onorgy
of character and action was equalled only by the ardor
of his patriotism
From the late Vice President Wm if. Ktng.
Born In North Carolina, I feci the obligations of my
native Statu and of the whole South to General Greene.
He was without doubt the great military genius of the
Revolution.

From Alexander Hamilton'* Eulogy on Gen Green:.
Iu his life we hare s succession of deeds as glorious as
they are unequivocal, to attest bis greatness and per
petuate the honors of bis name. His abilities entitled
him to a pre-eminent share in the councils of his chief.
He gained It and he presorved it.
I -am b&ppy to learn that you propose to publish the
letters and despatches of Gonoraf Gr* cue. His position
in the army of tho Revolution, second ouiy to that ofits
illustrious Chief, and tho importance of the events with
which ho was immediately connected, will make hia cor
respondence highly interesting to the general reader, and
extremoly Important to thostudent of American history.
From a rpetth of Jion. it. Toombs, in the U. S. Senate ,
Dee. 23,1850, on Revolutionary Claims.
I hopo the unpublished papers of General Greene will
soon bo printed, because there are In them many revo
lutionary reminiscences of great interest; and they will
bo valuable eveu for the administration of justice on an
occasion like this. I bare had access to sorno of these
papers through the kiudness of his son.
From the ith Vol. of Irving's Lift of Washington.
The news of Greene’s death struck heavily ou Washing
ton’s heart, to whom, in tho most arduous trials of tho
Revolution, ho had boon a second self "Ho was a gr**at
sml good mau,” was Washington's comprehensive eulogy
of him
We aro happy to learn (adds Irving) that a complete
collection oi tho correspondence of (i.-neral Greene is
about to bo published by bis worthy and highly culti
vated grandson, George Washington Ureeno. It is
work that, like Sparks’s Writings of Washington, should
foi m a part of every American Library. aug2s.tntß-3t
