“Van's Dar Damacs.”—He was a Dutch man and it was his first visit to town. He wrote a letter and went te the Post Office to post it. He gently dropped the epistle in the box. He then proceeded to the wicket and knocked. The gentlemanly officiai—he of the three card monte ex- perience~ approached and inquired of the Dutchman what was wanted. The latter, hauling out a large leathern pocket book, said :—‘* Look heah poss, I vas shust drop a letter in ter box, vat’s ter damage.”

Such isnot the case, as the Northern ' Light kas not pat in an appearance since she ‘lett Georgetown on Friday, the 5th inst,— _ just twelve days from this date—nor is there any word at latest dates of her present am-

chorage.

Surely, the X. C. Advertiser and the few

now cease to harrangue the people any more, bat quietly submit to the inev itable, viz., the Northern Li ight being sent tothe Capes, where she can ply daily and not be lost sight of even for an hour, much less for eight and ten days | at atime, as at present.

‘The crossing is good at the Capes now, and many of the passengers who have been wait- ing at Georgetown tor eleven days, have at last come to the Capes, and are daily being put across in short time. Our Government will soon Jearn to know that the means of crossing must take place in winter at the Capes. Yours, &., &c.,
