BY MIDNIGHT MAIL. Letter froricOecaiieniti. 9l Correspondence of Tho'riess.i ' - Sept : 23, 1858 It * ;is again. stated that Spain seeks to attach to liar :possessions the rich Spanish Republio of Do minica. °The"anarohy and - bloodshed that have ruled there through so many years would make one feel careless what fate awaited:that'people. Hayti also, it is stated, has designs upon the inde pendence of Dominica. Wouldn't it be an amu sing sight for the world to see the Cates, Pompeys, and Cresare of Hayti, clad in martial glory, going, with a rush, upon land and sea, into the priderof Castili'en' Hidalgos`! " Spain has upon her hands just now a great many difficulties. She has difficulties with English bond holders;with Mexico, and with the United States. With either of them she can accomplish little in the way of war.' Then, to revive her ancient chi valry, there could be nothing better than a bout with his Serene Magnificence; Fauetin First. I hear that the disposition toward the United States of Russia and the neighboring northern States of Europe is so kindly that a united effort is being made to secure a °Mier commercial inter course between them and us.. We have heard of ship-oanals across the Isthmus of Sues, for more rapid communication with the East, and a canal acmes the Isthmus of Darien, to save the long and tedious voyage around Cape Horn. Now, why should not there ho''a canal aoross the Isthmus of Holstein, which 'Will save 'a thousand and more miles of voyage of our trade toward the Battle ? The proJoot has equal advantages for Sweden, and Norway, and Denmark. $80,000,000 of Bahia trade with Russia is carried now mostly in Eng lish bottoms. Wo have been, gaining a portion of that trade, whilst England loses it. Why should we not have the, most of it ?' The Governments there are willing, and so are the people. I learn that this project of a canal has long been in view, bat that Lord Palmerston intrigued its delay thus far.- 'ln proper time I shall speak more fully on the point. It is curious to notice the avidity with which news is sought after, of Hickman's and Haskin's Ounces for meleotion. The speeches of both these gentlemen have been commented on freely in every paper in the - South. It does not astonish me that their manly bearing and honest adherence to their pledges to the people have gained for them amongst Southern citizens many sincere ad mirers. The excited rhetoric and fierce and arrogant politics of the speeches of ultra firemmters, made south of Mason and Dixon's line, are no more tho reflex of the popular feeling of.even a respect able section of the . South, 'than aro the profane ravings of Wendell Phillips and Garrison the re• flex of any large portion of Northern communi. ties Lot fair men eland by the right, and pursue a conservativelhational course, and these false gods, who have lived only in the delusion and passion of a people in great times of agitation, will topple from their pediments and grovel in the dust. - All the members of Congress from Philadelphia are opposed to locating the post office on Chestnut street, and as their demands, in the preiont condi tion of things, will have great influence, it is more than likely that the post office will go to Second street, however distasteful it may be to the popu lar fooling of your citizens. It is said that the de cision will be kept strictly secret, so as to save the terrible effect it would have against the return of these members. It should not be forgotten that the head and front of this scheme is Governor Big ler. Of course, he has no 'connection with certain notorious speculators—jobbers in post office print ing, newspapers, and market houses The Democratic State Central Conimittee of Pennsylvania, it would seem, are in a woful con dition—puckered up, as it were, like a washer- woman's thumb. Orders have been sent from here to insist upon the full endorsement of the Leeempton policy of the Administration, and a full denunciation of Judge Douglas for standing by Democratic principles, at the adjourned meeting of the Committee, which is to be held in your city on the 25th of September At the meet ing which was held at Pittsburgh I learn that there was some hesitation on this question, and that great °Terme has been given thereby. It is asserted that the chairman, R. Biddle Roberts, and other_Western members, aro opposed to any such endorsement, and that Colonel Young, of Barks; Cofftoth, of Somerset; Miller, of Dau phin, and other independent gentlemen on that committee, feel in the same way ; but tho• Federal Cabinet has resolved that the whole policy of the Administration on Kansas, and particularly that part which denounces Douglas, shall be elaborately approved. I give you this from headquarters. OCCASIONAL.

As proof of the en terprise and energy of Mr. Reese, it is only necea: easy to say, that notwithstanding the serious in convenience occasioned by the loss of his stabling, his business was carried on as usual, without any suspension or cessation whatever, and not a single one of his employees was discharged. The new buildings, when finished, will bo a fine improvement to this splendid hotel, whioh has grown eo deservedly popular under the proprie torship of Mr beets In the meantime, all the delights of a comfortable home can he found there, and the choice products of our markets will con tinue to fill the table with their welcome and at tractive greeting, and the stranger and traveller will meet with everything which careful manage ment and unaffected hospitality can afford. Davy has hosts of friends, and will soon forget his losses , in the Increase of patronage which the fall trade and travel will bring with it. The Lancaster County Agrieultural Pair, if we may judge from the preparations being made by the managers ' will result in a season of more than usual interest. The ground upon which it will be held 'oovers an area of about twenty sorts two acres of which, at least, aro under cover. 'The tents are strongly built and appropriately ar ranged, and the stalls for cattle and horses are not only numerous, but handsomely covered and well secured, so that exhibitors need be under no ap prehension in reference to the safety and comfort of their stook. The enterprising managers are doing all In their power to make this fair an in taresting and attractive exhibition. Tho erection of the buildings and the prepara tion of the track are under the superintendency of Gen. Michael R. Wheel], who is determined that nothing shall be left undone to bring every thing in complete order and condition. The track for the trial of the speed of horsey is pronounced by competent judges to be the best they oversaw. Some of tho beet stook in the country is expected to be present, and it is said that there is a common farm 'horse, which will be brought on the Crock, something of the order of Sleepy Davy, that will make bit mile inside of 2 30. lio'vtill be effered for sale after his speed has been tested. There will be quite a largo number of competitors for the fifty dollar premiums, and the contest, no doubt, will be quite spirited and exalting. The newly organized company of Jackson Rifle men made their fourth parade to-day, escorting the Fenoibles to the Railroad depot on their leav ing for their excursion to Harrisburg, Reading, and Philadelphia. The Riflemen and a large body of men, °proposing almost a regiment in them selves, are under the command of that ener getic and well-tried soldier, Capt. Henry A. Ham bright. Should nothing molar to' interfere with the harmony of the company, it will make one of the first in the State. The lieutenants are Meyers. Cox, Reese, and McElroy. They now parade in full uniform, -and have all their equipments ex cept the rifles, which aro expected to be here the latter end of the present week. The President was in town on Friday and until this morning, when he loft again for the oily of magnificent distances." Ills appearance here created little or no excitement, and but few per sons intruded upon the privacy of his chambers at Wheatland. Time and the heavy duties of his of fice seem to have made some impression upon him, as his hair is whiter, and his features somewhat more careworn than when he left us, a year and a half ago Various rumors are abroad in reference to the object of his vhtt to Lancaster—some say he came on private business ; others, to look after the interests of a certain candidate for Congress, while one impudent wag positively insists upon it that ho came for the purpose of having his razors sharpened. Bo that as it may, his visit here was quiet and unobtrusive. Ile called on few, persons, and few persons called on him, and neither' his coming In nor his going out was her alded, by the ringing of belle or the firing of cannon. The weather to-clay has been warn) and oppres sive, the thermometer somewhere in the eighties, and straw hats and light summer clothing again made their appearance in our streets. Some per sons charge the increased heat upon the comet which has been ssen for acme nights past in our western horizon. It may be the cause of it, or it may not, but whether or not, there is no difference of opinion in reference to the fact that the weather is oppreasively warm. DIAC. bEPTEMBER 24, 1858. Calling up the Dead. Mn, PRESS : I have accidentally soon the Public Ledger of the 16th instant, in whioh is a loading artiole commenoing thus : "Tug MEDICAL EFFECTS Or FOOD. —There died la V in London a man who contributed as much to e preservation of the English army in the Crimea as Lord Raglan did to their destruction, by his inefficiency. We mean the celebrated Mr. Ude, known to the world first of all only as a French cook of the first order, who has published a very useful and successful cookery book, but more extensively known in his later days by ye lunteering to go after the English army to the East and establish order' in the culinary department. By this and his receipts for soups, composed of the Materials furnished to the army, he was the means of restoring multitudes of the sick, and preserv ing thousands who would have perished if they had to know how and to cook their food before they ate it. Yot Mr. Ude know only something of the art, find perhaps a mere nothing of the m enu of selecting the substances that should com pose our food." Without being hypercritical, I challenge the truth of tha above. Monsieur Louis Euatache Ude, the celebrated cook, of whom a portrait was given in an early 'volume of Frazer's Magazine, died over twenty years ago, to my certain know ledge. Moreover, be never was in the Crimea. The mutate writer of Alio above quotation pro bably means not M. Ude, but M. Alexis Boyer, 'irho was in this crime, and died, last month, in /1011404. 11:11E PitgSS..-PIitLADELPHIA, rittpAy, SgtvrEMBER 24, 11858. A Voice from "Interior.” [Correspondence• or Thegross ] - You must allow me' a few words - more on the subject - of the Sifironey. First, in reply tii'what is said in your nannny artiste. ,Do you know that the non-redeeming banks lend "their own notes out. at a distance from their please of business?" If you do not, you have no right to melte the asser tion; if you do, it only proves the eruption, not the rule. Non-redeeming banks cannot force their circulation; the moment they attempt it they aro met with jsuspiolon and distrust; the rates on it will at once go up, and it gathers in the hands of brokers, who oompel them to redeem it. buttit is not scwitlf the par banks; it is they that' , lend their circulation away from home, the very fact of its being redeemed in Philadelphia giving them an unmerited credit and enabling them to do so. And not only - le it so circulated, but in tight times you can find it in masses in the hands of money-lenders, who lend on it, considering it a good security, from the'very fact that the redeem vo bank is bound for it, and they can - realize any moment by deposiling it either in the redeeming bank or any other of the city banks. Some of your laity banks have come within a hair of being swamped in this' way. The Lewistown and Lan caster banks, I believe, were' in the habit, either directly or indireetly, of borrowing all round on their notes, and opntinued to maintain themselves in that way for a long time, the "suffering com munity" meanwhile taking their notes freely, for they were par : finally, the shavers got frightened and plumped their collaterals into the redeeming bank, which one fine morning found it self in for twenty Units the usual balances kept with it by those banks, and the " suffering com• munity" found themselves full of the notes, not of the " rascally non-redeeming banks," which were at a half per cont. disoouut, but of the tip-top par issues of the Lewistown and' Lancaster banks, worth from ten to fifty cents on the dollar! All this I will undertake to prove, if neoeesarl. As to what you say about "fixed" and "circu lating" capital, Sc., it only amounts to a refieetion on the management of country banks. Now, Mr. financial editor, give us your illustration—name your bank. Can you? If not, you are doing gross injustice—a thing The Press at least should shrink from. You say the non-redeeming banks are in partnership with the brokers: again, name your bank, or stand oonvioted of recklessness to truth. It is the nar-redeeming banks that deal most with brokers, for, instead of using their money at home, legitimately, they keep heavy amounts of it in " gilt edge" Philadelphia paper, bought at mei. ous rates, through brokers. This is part of their polioy, and when a tight pinch (somas, you will find that very paper, sometimes with their name on it, hawking about among the brokers, for they are often in ouch times depending on the sale of this "gilt edge" - to enable them to keep their accounts good with the redeeming bank. You say, " Let people generally understand," Why, sir, if you continue to write as reek- Tessly as you do, "people generally" will "under stand" that you don't know what you aro writing about, and don't ears to know either. What with your two-fold propositions—laxity in collecting— " fixed" and " eiroulating"mapital—your •' great faith in our country officers generally," and then your charge of collusion with brokers—and finally your advice to the people to believe a wholesale falsehood, viz : that no bank is safe that does not redeem—one does not know whioh to admire most, the practical knowledge you evince of what you are talking about, or your delicate regard for truth! I guess your father and mother must have both been bankers, and im parted their great wisdom on the subject to you— especially in the matter of circulation. If the banks of the State would circulate their notes as boldly as you eine:late your weighty opinions, and with so mush regard to justice and propriety, the dear publio would have the utmost confidence in their breaking very soon. Redemption would be beyond their reach, as, I fear, it will be beyond yours, unless you pay more regard to certain of the commandments. There have been no Lewistown' or Lancaster banks among the non-redeeming. Do you want further illustration? Look at that grand pile of stones next door to you, and mark the widow's sigh and the orphan's tear, as they pass it, and are reminded of their lost inheritance. Look opposite to you at that splendid building, the United States Bank, and perhaps the poor, deorepid beggar on its steps will tell you it made him such. Magnificent relies these of your grand currency regulators! They furnish reminiscences to" the ' , suffering oom munity,'' not of half per cent. losses, but of hun dred per cent. losses, and of long suffering and sold charity. If they had paid more attention to their own business and less to grand notions about circulation and currency, they' might have been a benefit instead of a curse to the AMittlering com munity." Can you point to euoh monuments among the non-redeeming banks? I mean, of Bourse, the old banks, and don't include the now brood lately put in operation, and. which are usually discredited, and will continue to be discredited, unless they make arrangements - with some of your regulators 4.-vv.av-v-ve ror them, rind by that means and the fic titious credit it will give them, they aro enabled to consummate mognifioent awindlos, all round, as well on the "suffering community" as on the wise regulator that will redeem for them. Col. Forney, popular sovereignty "Is appli cable to boohoos well as Territories, and it would be quite as Just for you to aid Moen Southern States to force slavery on Kansas against its will, as to aid your eighteen city banks in their pre sent attempt to force tribute from the country banks. Country bank officers have a right to "manage their institutions in their own way," as the people of Kansas have, and will not submit to dictation, come whence it may. INTERIOR. September 20th, 1858.

The examination of Ray Tompkins anl J ohn 0. Thomreon. on the charge of arson in burning the hos pitals at Quarantine, was expected to proceed before Justice Metcalfe, at Stapleton, this mining. Mr An. thon, counsel for defence, was in attendance at the ap pointed time, as were the prisoners and two or three witnesses for deform. After waiting for Justice Metcalfe for nearly an hour, Mr. Anthon said he had received *letter from Attor ney General Tremaine, dated Albany, September 2lst, in which he states that he has important engagements at the Albany (limit, and that Air. Peckham, his as sociate, is engaged in a murder case in Madison coun ty, and that he, therefore, desired that the examina tion might be postponed until Thursday of next week Mr. Ray Tompkins' expressed the opinion that the prosecution was disposal to back down, but said he dwelt' insist upon an examination. It was a great hardship that, having been arrested for arson, a crime the penalty for which le hanging, ands It the evidence against hint haying been received and made public, the evidence for defence, some or width was highly impor tant at this juncture, should be ao long withheld. If be was going to be banged, be wanted them to bo quick about it. The case was, however, postponed. The trial of F. A. Talimadge, General Superinten dent of Police, for not repairing to Quarantine on the morning of the 2d loot , and for neglecting to station a police force to protect the remaining hospital, was re sumed this morning. Several witnessee were examined bat as yet, nothing very Important has been developed; and the cane bide fair to la at several days. A gang of counterfeiters has been arrested over in Brooklyn, who were operating extensively in bo gee bank notes. Ono of them, named Edward Kane, be. longs to Philadelphia, and came on hero to operate• lie had passed, on the day he was arrested, three five dollar Ws on the People's Bank, of Derby Line, Ver . moot, another on the State Bank of Montpelier, Ver. mont ; all of which were altered from the People' s Bank, of Paterson, New Jersey. Rene was identified, and fully committed for examination. Conjecture is rife concerning the ocean steamer burnt at sea, as reported by telegraph from Halifax Some of the morning journals express' an opinion that the unfortunate steamer may be the North Star. This is not probable. The spot where the burned steamer was seen is fifteen hundred miles from Sandy Hook. The North Star left New York on the 11th, and was thou out only four days, and could not have been so fart to the eastward by some four hundred tulles. The Ariel left on the 4th, and was then out eleven daye; but the latitude, 45 12, le 200 miles to the smith. ward other course, and 1,200 to 1,800 miles to the week ward of where the Ariel ought to have been on the 08th of September. The North Star has double engines, and two walking beams ; the Ariel has but one engine, and one walking beam. The steamer Alps left New York on the 6th Septem ber for Liverpool. The Canada left Halifax on the 10th for Liverpool. The only miming steamer that we know of is the Austria, from Bremen via Southampton, which left that port on the 4th, and has now been out 19 days. That steamer has a red bottom, but not a welicing beam. The races, over the Fashion course, will commence tomorrow. For the tour-mile race, should the weather continue line we anticipate seeing one of the beet races ever run in the United Stater:, not less thou three (Tar River, Plieholas I, and Lizzie McDonald), proba bly four horses (Slasher for fourth), contending for the puree and the honore. Mesta McDonald, who, at the present writing, is in excellent health, and gallops beautifully, suede the fastest four-mile heat ever run in Virginia, while Tar River, one of Llzaleie most for midable competitors, was close up to her, and won the Wend host, and the race. Lizzie and NichOlas have frequently run together, and each has beaten the other, making some of the fastest races on the maim on which they have run. Many gentlemen from distant States are already in town, who have come on expressly to attend the meet ing, and we are much mistaken if they do not leave satisfied with the entertainment provided for them. El The Second Avenue Railroad has the money to pay a dividend of 2 per cent. in October, and there is no rea• eon why quarterly dividends of legal amount cannot be regularly made.

The Lost Balloonist—The Balloon Down —The Balloonist Still Unheard From. [Prom tho Detroit Tribune, Sept. 21 No tidings yet of Thurston! Day after day wears away, and oven the hoping against hope is fast yielding to hopelessness. It MOM scarcely erodible that he could have fallen anywhere in Canada, still alive, and not have sent word to the poorest telegraph or railway station of his whore layouts and condition. The intense solicitude of his friends, under the peculiar eironmstances of his fearful flight, would readily occur to him, and his first thought should be to communicate with them and relieve their distressing anxiety. Tho fateful silence that has intervened bodes anything but a termination that any of us will like to hear. Of 001118^, there Is a bare possibility that ho may have fallen to the earth in a condition so exhaust- ed that ho may be usable to make anyone' effort. But this thought is scarcely any less comforting, for in such a condition, entirely unable to hell) himself, ho runs every hazard of being left, um discovered, to die from exposure and starvation. Ms balloon was unmanageable. Ho cannot regu late its dement, and it may have dashed to the ground or in the woods with soh violence as to break a limb, adding to his Incapacity and sufferings. All this, supposing that ho was ena bled to cling to his frail seat from the beginning to the end of this wild voyage. But it needs only a moment's reflection to see that, sitting astride a strip of board less than a foot wide, and clinging to the silk sides of the balloon, is no easy task Crrough so long and venturesome a trip—mounting uo ton height so groat that it makes ono dizzy to think of it, and sailing shout at the mercy of every current. It would require , extraordinary nerve, endurance, and coolness to maintain ouch n pillion for, at the very least, twonty-four hours. In our conversation with Mr. Bannister, ho gave it as his opinion that the gas would sufficiently exhaust to let the balloon down within the time named. Ho thinks it would escape—vety slowly, indeed—from the neck of the vessel, and there was about thirteen thousand cubic feet of carbu rotted hydrogen in it at thallium of the second ascension. The sky was clear and the atmosphere free from commotion on that day, which was favorable. When they first 06010 down at Knight's station, Thurston complained of feeling sllghtly qualm ish. Mr. Bannister felt •no disagreeable sensa tions whatever, but says that when adverse cur rents aro met, the balloon rocks back and forth, (musing severe f ea. sick oss, profuse vomiting, ,to., until the stomach is emptied. ' This, with the rarity of the atmosphere at n great altitude, occa sions severe hunger, and, if protracted, moos!. totes bodily prostration. So that tbo longer he remained in the sky, the weaker would the luck less aeronaut become, and the more likely to re• lease his hold. That the balloon came down. as we stated yes. tertlay, there is no doubt A brakeman who same up on last evening's train states positively that it landed on the farm of Joseph Marks, EN , municipal councillor for the township of Tilbury West, four miles west of Baptiste creek, and about thirty miles from Windsor. Ho further states that Mr. M. stripped it on Sunday, and took the silk of which Wilms wholly made into his house. The balloon was a new ono, this having boon the Erg time it misused It soot nearly $l,OOO, and was mode and owned by both the gentlemen who first ascended. The same authority that collaring the demerit of the balloon states that it had three largo rents in different parts of its surface, indica ting that it must have descended with some vio mum. LATEST.—Tho train at 2P. M. brings no new intelligence, little additional, but all confirma- tory. The balloon is on tho ground, hos been visited, and no one was in or near it. The station master at Baptiste creek now reports that a man PM soon in the balloon as it came down—a very Important fact which ho woolly neglected to state at first, and one which ho would hays boon very likely to state if it were so. We regatd this as wholly improbable. He further states that the balloon was tumbling over and over as it ORM to the ground, and that it foil on Saturday. It to t en rnilos oast of Bello river.

CORN-ThJegiNG MACHINE.—Ono of the most pat fret machines. of recent invention, that we have ever seen, is the Corn-flusklng Machine, the invention of Messrs. IV Pickett and Andrew llfiln of Naugatuck, Conn. The machine ia of the moat simple construe tion, and will not be liable to get out of order ; and should it ever do eo, can be molly repaired. It consists of a frame-work of wood, about three feet square, and of convenientheight for rise To a platform on one s de of the top of the machine, a small circular saw is attached, to which the caret corn is applied and the butt of the ear to which the hocks prow Is 'twat:4'y sawed off nese to the ear. The ear of corn then paesen into an t.aolin•d grooved rest in the nay of the maw A revolving cylluder, covered with rows of card-teeth or potato, and !noticed at the rameangie with the grooved at, strips the husks from the ear, and the ear passes d ;we the Inclined groove into n basket or other recepta le, while the husks are carried off to the side of the machine by an inclined plane under the cylinder. The husts are all separated front the cylinder by a cleaner attached to the frame parallel with' the cylinder, and left clean and free from butte or stalks. The machine to portable, and can be easily carried by one man from place to place in a field, and requires but one man in working it. A email forco will pet It in ra• pid operation, and it aan be done with one's foot or hand, or by any other prop.lling force. The great advantages of the machine are the rapidi ty and perfectness with which the work in done. Not a husk can /tope being stripped off by the cylinder, and the teeth or point. are placed en near cash other that none of the kennels will be shelled MT or the ear Wand. The ear is left perfectly clean, without any stub or butt. which rrerente the ear from m , ulding at the butt, to the injury of the kernel, as it is aura to do in a short time when the butt Is I ft on. To large corn-growers this machine will prove Indis pensable. See advertisement In to•day'a Pease.

(Correspondence of The Press.] MOUNT Jor, Sopt. 16, 1658 Having been present at the examination of the students of tho Mount Joy Academy, in the beau tiful village of that name, in Lancaster county, and under the able direction of E L Moore, A. H., principal, and Howard Kennedy, A, M , vita principal. I thought a brief sketch of the exec cites might interact such of your readers who have children and wards to educate, as well as others who take an interest in the promotion of the great cause of education There is probably no place in the State bettor adapted to an institution of the kind than Haunt Joy, situate as it is on the Frio of the Central Railroad, and in a region of unsur passed beauty and fertility, apart from the allure ments of a populous city or town, and a spot cal culated, in evely respect, for the training and education of youth. The examination took place in the hall of the Academy, on the afternoon and evening of the 14th inat , in the presence of n large and intelli gent audience of ladies and gentlemen. The salu tatory, by R. M. Crain, of Cumberland county, Pa , a youth of not more than fifteen peered age, was ably conceived and delivered ; and his ad. dress in the Latin language would havedonearedit to a much older bead. "America's Contributions to the World," by C. P. Angell, of Washington, D. C , was ingeniously treated and ples.sntly expressed. "Perpetuity of our Liberties," by M. Hoopes, of Coemanville, Lancaster cuuuty, was very creditably handled, and the forcible and dignified manner of his delivery affardnd evidence of the germsof a fine speaker. " Utility of Education," by D. Maher, of Harrisburg, Pa : "Past and Future," by J. A McKee, of Fayette pity, Pa., were very creditable compositions. The recitation of Spartious' address to the Gladiators at Canna, by O. K. Hambright, of Philadelphia, was effectively executed, and his conception of the character, for ono so young, was striking and re m irkablo. Antony's address, by J. Z. Speer, of Pittsburgh, would have done credit to a reputed reader; and his valedictory will not soon be for gotton by those who hoard it, distinguished as it was by beautiful imagery and touching pathos. To notice each separate performance would extend my letter to an undue length ; but I cannot forego the pleasure of a favorable mention of J. M. Her shey, of Dauphin county; J. M. and S. P. Ruther ford, of Harrisburg ; S. C. Henderson, of Shippens. burg ; J. S. Hays, Of Oakville; J Long, of Mount Joy; J. Davis, of California, and W. H. Stock dale, of Baltimore. all of whom acquitted them selves with decided credit. The Mount Joy Academy enjoys a high reputa tion, and deservedly too, and one of the'best evi denocs of the efficiency and ability of the .accom- Wished gentlemen, who have charge of It, is the - distance many of the students come to share its advantages In addition to the teachers named, there is a professor of music, E. E. Gates, con nected with the institution; and the high testi monials he possesses as a musician are confirmed by the progress that several of the students have made under hie instruotion..„ A §VACTATOR.

Flour that would formerly pars as superfine is now passed as extra. and that which formerly passed as extra is now passed as double-extra. We seldom or ever hear of such a thing; as euperflne flour. We purpose, hereafter, as 'Old Hickory' once said, in our quotations, to call thinse by their right namen, and not follow the whims of hope •tore and operators." And the Commercial adds: • - . In collecting the sales each day, we frequently Bad quotations of a decidedly antagonistic character. Bar instance, we received day before yesterday, a quotation of choke Oaned'an extra at $5.75, undoubtedly correct. In the course of a few mintees we were informed by a dealer that he had sold ' 100 barrels fair double extra do $5 02,i5 ;i and this also, we believe to be true, the inspectors having messed the brand as a double extra. We purpose hereafter to pursue the course suggested by the Express, believing that the benefita resulting from its adoption will be mutually beneficial to alt parties."
