The Weekly Comet

Our friend J. R. M. of Bayou Sara, is at hand--contents noted.

If we were not now looking anxiously every moment, for a gentleman to enter our front office who has promised his friends "to pull the Comet's nose" we should republish at length the two several notices marked. We know very well he (our friend J. R. M.) will excuse us. when we tell him that it is a fixed principle in our diplomacy not to have more than one cause of quarrel on hand at a time: we must be candid to confess our fear of the "allied powers."

The coffee is now being made, to use with the pistols next week, when our friend the much wronged Count of Nesselrode will be here with the Baron Schenck and Count Goldmann, to settle some little personal difficulties, previous to his departure to the seat of war on the Danube. As our friend J. R. M. may see, in our yesterday's despatches, "further operations have been suspended there, until the Count's return."

In reference to the individual who has thrown East and West Feliciana into a lively sensation of commotion for revenge, we make no doubt that every word written is so, and the Ledger's circulation is sufficient to post the Baton Rougeans, in the modus operandi. so that they may be on their guard. The fact is our knowing ones, have learned a thing or two lately, and the "Know Nothings" have always been up to snuff Does our friend J. R. M. know that "Goliath of Gath" was the first Grand master of the order ? It is so. The first Grand Lodge was formed after that celebrated character of profane history slew the Philistines. The jaw-bone of an ass is quite as formidable a weapon in the hands of the fool-killer as the "two-edged sword."

Count Nesselrode --The Baton Rouge Comet of yesterday, publishes a letter purporting to come from Count Nesselrode, and dated at Savannah. The individual is indignant at the manner in which his(?) name has been bandied about. and announces his intention of returning in a few days to vindicate his character. He says he will be accompanied by his friend Baron Schenck. " We shouldn't wonder if the Duke de Flunkeystein-hammer was of the same party. The Count has a very bad hand to draw to, and he had better pass out.

The Capitolian Vis-a-Vis intimates that the letters purporting to come from "Ida Lenz" and others, and addressed to the Count at Baton Rouge, were a decided "sell," they having been perpetrated in that city, by some practical joker.--T. Delta.

The first instance of the recovery of damages for slander, has yet to occur in the Crescent city. We advise our friend of the True Delta to be careful.

The Count, when he returns here, will have to be content with personal satisfaction. We hope for our contemporaries sake, more than for Nesselrode's, that he has something more substantial to heal the wounded sensibilities.

There is no balm in Gilead half so good for wounded honor, as bank bills with big figures.

The room at the corner of Third and Laurel sts.. formerly occupied by A. Goldmann, is now being fitted up to receive the Post office.
