THE BLUFF.

(fEOJC OUR OWN lESPOXDENT.) Bluff Ha , November 15. '\ The divers on bo; the Flying Mist] are hard at work i c hold sending up! the cargo. A few 5 Jays Jand a con-| siderable portion of i 1 be on shore, or.ll on the upper deck n for transhipments I Our Court House is finished, and add * much to the appear >f_ the township There are numberle! uiries for section; in a central positio nsequent/y, very high, and in some ci cry absurd prices are asked. The tsr and baker art erecting shops on i section. The roadmen are y engaged, under the able Huperinte c of Mr. Atkin, and «c are begining ast, i 0 have faint hopes of at least a j>e road. Indeed, I have but little doy to result, if Mr! Friskir is allowed .-py- out the idea naturally suggested^ local experience and knowledge of oints, we may then expect that our r&'ill be well made, and where recjuind that advantage will be taken of jplly fine metalling distributed in aijiaritity along the road. I trust s#},' will be done. Mr McHardys q| is in a wretched state. When | a quarter of a mile is proper^aired, travellers may gallop the|e way from the Bluff to Invercs Our seafaringfriends and import stock will be glad to hear that welhave an assistant pilot. I understtYJat our chief pilot Captain Gilroy \mto 'resign, if so I trust that his sue will not only be a certified master, l ver y way qualified by experience, an N s . and thus reflect credit upon the p those making the appointment, lieve that the chief pilot is for the fu i be harbor master also for this po ally good ariangement, and one y way necessary. My little bird is me that a certain gentleman at Inv ill is likely to have ihe appointment, think he is n every way the right mi spite of his present preference for instead of water. From all that I< ir, I believe his appointment won'ti liversal satisfaction ■^trwe^feT^ rraSrm^rcji for this place, rei ; ( Mr. Geo. Perrj|i will without d > his successor ; he^ will have every at the Bluff, and inconsiderable nt from Invevcavgil , j I must now cone otherwise I shall I if apt to verify tin cli proverb, whk Jn says, Qui parle $ , park souvent i hdssard.. -^ lm^~~~~ m * lt . b
