Many a young man who sows his wild oats trusts to the grasshopper of forget fulness to destroy the crop. Delicate health is a great blessing to some people. It always excuses them from doing anything for anybody. There are four hundred thousand spe oies of known animals, and of these man possesses dominion over forty-three. There was only three feet of j water on the shoais at Fayetterijle yesterday morn ing and then It was falling slow!y.

' j The damps of autumn sink into tbe leaves and prepare them for the necessity of their fall; and thus insensibly are we, as years close round us. detaehtd from our i tenacity of lite by the gentle pressure to recorded sorrow.

These excursions have proved a very delightful feature of the warm weather and have been well patronized. The season is now drawing rapidly te a close and we presume that this fact will have its due influence on the prospects for to-morrow. Brcntaao's Aquatic Monthly For August has just been received. It is illmstrated by a fine lull-length portrait f Weston, the chapion pedestrian of the world, and contains a large amount of interesting and Instructive matter rela tive to athletic, aquatic and other sports which are bow so justly popular. It is valuable to the yachtsman, the rifle shooter and to all others who are fond oi athletic sports and physical development. It avoids allusion to the brutalities of the fighting arena, but is in every way a first class sporting journal. Subscription price $4 per annum. Published monthly at Brentano's Literary Emporium. 39 Union Square, New Tork. The Board of Aldermen, j The Board of Aldermen met yesterday at 5 o'clock, pursuant to adjournment of the afternoon previous, when the follow ing proceedings were had: Alderman Hill offered a resolution to the effect that the operation of the cattle ordinance be suspended until the next reg ular meeting of the Board, in ord er to give complainants a hearing. j Alderman King moved to amend so as to make the suspension extend to the 1st of November next, which was agreed to. The resolution of Alderman Hill, as amended, was then passed. Petitions of Meerrs. G. M. Harriss and J. H. Williams, for permission to ertct houses on Foirth, between Nun and Church streets, were granted. Petition of Col. J. W. Atkinson, for permission to erect a wooden building on the wharf In rear of Messrs. Newbury & Chasten's store, on North Water street. between Princess and Chestnut, was re ferred to Committee on Fire Department. The Board then adjourned. Pilots' Pay. To the Editor of thi Herald: Will you please let me and the public know through yoa valuable paper wny our pilots on the coast of America should in these hard times have tbe same pay as thev did in eood times? In 1866-67-68- 69 I. as shipmaster, was making $200 per month, paying twenty-five cents per pound for beef. Now I am glad if I can get$70 per month, but can buy good meat for eight and ten cents per pound, wny should pilots have the same pay when we carry oil to Europe for three shilling? We don't thiuk we ought to pay the same pilotage as when we got seven and eight shillings. But neither government nor newspapers seem to think anything about our snipping only to drive it from the sea and us poor unfortunate shipmas ters to the. poor house If it was a rail road, street car. Coal miues or! oil wells that suffered :t would soon be taken in hand. ! Last vovacre I t ok a pilot on board at Philadelphia. He was on board twenty - four hours.

We wish them all a pleasant trip and safe return. Home Politeness. A boy who is polite to his father and mother is likely to be polite to every ono else. A boy lacking politeness to his parents may have the semblance of cour tesy in society, but is never truly polite in spirits, and is in danger, as he becomes familiar, of betray lug his real want ol courtesy. We are all in danger of living too much for the outside world, for j the impression wnich we make in society, oveting the good opinions of those who are in a sense a part of ourselves, and who will continue to sustain and, be interest ed in us, notwithstanding these defects of deportment and character. We say to every boy and girl, cultivate the habit of coartesy and propriety at home in the sitting-room and the kitchen, as well as in the parlor, and you will be sure in other places to deport yourself in a be coming and attractive manner. When one has a pleasant smile and a graceful demeanor, It is a satisfaction to know that these are not put on, but that they belong to the character, and are manifest at all times and under all circumstances. Some of the Old Folks. From Mr. Walker Meares, who is now engaged in taking the census of the city, we learn that he met with some old people while engaged in his work. Clem Smith, colored, claims -to be 110 years old, and gives as data the following : When quite a young man he belonged to a man named B-illoon, (and then runa ning on a small coasting vessel between Lock wood's Folly and this city. During one of tre trips between the two places New Inlet broke open, and on the return trip to this city, ht? saw it for the first time. 1 '..'! If we mistake not, the Inlet w as form ed something over one hundred and ten years ago, and if what Clem said is true he is an older man than he thinks for. A colored woman, whose name, we have forgotten, claims to be considerably over one hundred. She says she is a genuine African, and wail brought from Africa direct to Charleston. She gives no data as to her age and does not seem to be in the enjoyment of her mental faculties. She has the appearance of being an old woman, and is shrivelled and drled-up until She looks like a mummy. Her body is hardly larger than that! of a twelve-year-old child. Old jAukt Nancy Corcoran, who is known to many i our old citizens, claims to be somt thing over a hundred. She is the mother of "old Uncle Billy Oorco ran," who died some two years ago. It will be remembered that old Uncle Billy was a drayman for many years and was in the employ of Mr. Jno Dawson for a long time before his death. It is thought that he was nearly seventy at the time of his death. He 1 was the fifth child, and by a second marriage, of Aunt Nancy, ! " : There are many persons in the j city who claim to be on the shady side of ninety but as there are no dates by which to ascertain their ages we have taken count of only those who claim that they can establish the fact that they are cen tenarians. In a few days theJREviEW pro poses to give some interesting facts about the inhabitants of this city. There are some very queer, as will as as very old, people living in this community aad we ill endeavor to give our readers the bene fit of every thing of the kind we can hear of.
