Marseilles, Toulon, Arios, and some secondary towns of tho south, which, together with Italy, have experienced its attacks, are now re lieved From it. Scarcely in tho other parts of Franco havo there boon more than a fow isolated cases; Paris in particular will lmvo been relatively but little affected, as tbo number of cholora patients admitted into tiie hospitals, or nltuckod in them du ring tho course of a day, is now only ono hundred and ten.

The Premier’ll I^ast Hours, [From the London Daily Telegraph, Oct. 20.] Uo might perhaps lmvo been alivo sliL, but for thut very cbocriness and sturdy spirit which made him so like un English ouk. Tho doctors could never get him lo take proper care of himself, lie wa born with a niagnificont physical and mental constitution, arid had never had a real illness in his lifo. Latterly, as everybody knows, tho gout had sadly troubled him ; but ho was not suffering directly from that when tho fatal woek began, it was from an inflammatory attack of tho bladdor that tho Pronjjer died. Uo was driving on Thursday near Brocket Hall, and lie had boon warned to take great euro of himsolf; but, feeling ovor-warm with tho precautions adopted, lie imprudently ex posed himsolf to a chill, and roturnod to tho houso in such a stale that collapse on- Buod, and but for tho presence of tho phy sician it is possible that ho would have died within two hours. IIo recovered, howovor, from that, but lay in his bed very wo&k, and very much changed, for tho affection mounted to tbo ducts and kidneys, and, tho tocrotions being sus pended,Iho blond was becoming poisoned ritill his superb cunstituti.):, guvu iropvc especially when tho difficulty of respira tion becamo loss, and on Tuesday after noon a favorablo bulletin was issued ; but at night his condition suddouly grow much worse, and it was soon apparent that tho end approached. His state of mind up to tho last remained unclouded ; he was in full possession of his faculties, and sufferod very littlo pain. But there camo a lassitude over him which pre vented any effort or wish to converse; questions put to him woro either disre garded or answered by a look or sign. A silonco, half imposed by woarinoss, half of hi9 own inclination, possessed him. Un tho day before his death, howovor, when in a dozo procoding tho lust change, his mind was evidently still amid its old asso ciations; for ho was hoard to murmur, us in it dream, “Tho treaty with Belgium I S 3B, road rao that sixth clauso again.” ut at tho last a perfectly peucoful domiso crownod tho long‘and soreno hoallhlul- ness of his lifo; ho sank away gently— flickered a littlo, like an expiring lamp, and then “wont out” rather than “died;” and thoy hardly know in iho deulh-clmm- bor at what exact moment tho great statesman,whose name had boon on ovory page of our history for fifty yoars, cousod to be among tho living.

Tho grief of this circle was lessoned, so fur us it could be, by the spectaclo of a quiet nnd eas'-fui parting, hallowed, before tho shades of death chiiio bo near lo tho dim eyes, nnd tho lips grew so slow to movo, by faith in the words taught by that church of which tho Pre mier died a true mom her. A Farmer Without Arms. — W. M. Beaucamp, of Onondaga county, Now York, sends to tho American Agricultu rist an interesting account of u Lamer Uo formorly know, who was born without arms: lnsload of appealing to tiie charitable for support ho commenced early to hoi| himself. His first pioperty was a hen chickens next, a pot lamb, and aflorwards a shaggy colt, ifci took good care of thoso, and increased hi? stock a littlo at a timo until bo bocaino a prosperous farmer. Having no hands, ho lenrnod to Qso his toos, which were longer than common,— His logs woro also very tlexiblo, and by practice ho was onablcd to readily pot form most operations wit h ease. IIo put on and took off his own clothing, shaved and fed hinpself, milked his own cows, and took part in most labors of tho farm. Lie was a torror to evil-doers, whom he could I mnish with sevority. llowas powerfully milt, and possessed of great strength in tho head and shoulders, lie would butt liko a ram, or soizo an offending urchin with bis teeth and shako him with bull dog tenacity. IIo died at tho age ol m-v- onty, leaving a largo family—having boon married throo times. A Richmond pnpor, discussing tho in creased mortality of tho negroos in a stato of froodom, says: In a county of this Slate a gentleman, some timo during thoyear 1863,lost ninety- eight slaves by flight to tbo Fedoral lines. Witbirt two years from tho timo of tho es cape of thesa negroes uceurato and relia ble information was received, showing that, during tho time designated, twonty- fivo out of the ninety-eight negroes hud died. Another gentleman, in tho samo county, lost about tho same time twenty- six negroos by ©scape to tho free Stato- 1 . When ho heard from them, after a period of thirty-ono months, eight of tho original number had died. Other similar exam ples might ho given. - — M.

Last summer, whilo engaged in tho to bacco and sugar business, I used to havo I for a customer in cheap cigars ono of those fellows whose knowledge serves better to boro his victim than advancing science. You couldn’t nmko him boliove that—oh no! Toll him that theso were regalia ci gars that cc'.sL $40 per thousand. It might do to stuff down tho throats of those who know no better; ho was none of them. And so it was with everything; ho always appeared to bo his delight to draw mo into some controversy, no matter what tho sub ject, in order to hear himsolf hold forth, 1 tried every way 1 could think of to cir- uinvcr.t him, but atdast I did succeod in laying him out as a flounder. It was on a Saturday afternoon, ho camo in,-madehis purchase, and seated himsolf to deal mo out his usual portion,but 1 was awake for hi .). ’Captain,’ said l, ‘I bavo made up my mind to go to California, and if you wish lo go into a speculation, now is your timo, sir.’ ‘As how V’ said he. 'Why, you seo them fifteen boxes of ci«* gars? Well, thoro are two hundred and fifty in each box, and I will let you havo the. whole lot atu low rap*, providing you will take them all.’ 'Very well,’ said my friend, ‘let’s hear tho conditions.’ ‘You givo me ono cent for the first box, two for tho second, four for tho third, and so double up ou ovory box.’ ‘Done,’ said he, ‘fetch on your cigars. Suppose you think 1 haven’t money enough—eh ?’ ‘Not at all; so lot’s proceed ; hero’s tho first box.’ Uo drow from bis pocket a loathern purse, and out with n handful of coin. 'And here’s tho cent,’said he, deposit ing a groon discolored copper on tho coun ter. ‘Hero’s your second box,’ ‘And here’s your two conts.’ ‘Very well, here’s your third box.’ 'And horo’s your four conts,’ said ho, chuckling. ‘Here’s your fourth box.’ 'Exactly; and bore's your eight cents! 11a ! ha ! old follow—go on.’ 'Here’s your fifth box,’ said 1, handing down another box. ‘And here’s your sixteen cents.’ ‘Hero’s ynut sixth box.’ 'And—ha! ha! kal— horo’s your thirty- two e«*nts.’ ‘Here’s your seventh box,’ ‘And hero—ha I by JovJ, the joke is gelling too rich—here's your sixty-four cents, and nearly half your .cigars gone.’ ‘Horo’s your eighth box,’ said l, assum ing a cool indifference that perfectly as tonished the fellow. ‘And hero's your dollar and twenty* eight cents.’ ‘Here’syour ninth box. ‘Ami hero is your—lot mo soo—ah ! two dollars and fifty-six cents.’ 'Here’s your lonth box.’ Here lie drow Ids wallet thoughtfully, and on tho slato made a small calculation. ‘flora's, your eleventh box.’ ‘And hero is your—twice fivo is ton, twio.o twelvo is twenty-four—ton dollars and twenty*four cents.’ »At this stago of tho game ho bad got quite docile, and 1 continued : ‘Here is your twelfth box, band ovor twenty dollars and forty-eight cunts.’ Hero tho globules of perspiration,as largo as marrow-fat poas, stood out in bold re lief on his face, but at length ho doled out the required amount. ‘Hero is your thirteenth box, fork over forty dollars and ninety-six conts.' At this crisis ho looked perfectly wild. Tho sweat was pouring off him in streams, and tobacco juice was running cut of his mouth. ‘Forty-f-ninoly-six. If I do, but if 1 do, I will ho hanged, I will.’ New Theory or the Earth.—Mr. John Calvin Moss of England contests tho much vexed theory that tho center of tho earth is a muss of lire and molten rock, over which a crust lias formed, propor tionally a moro shell, on which wo livo. “The idea that tho interior of our globe is u vast, fiory ocean doubtless arose,” says Mr. Moss, “from tho idea that bout was a material substance, and would havo to pass off into space before tho earth could cool: whoroas the moro modern research es of science show that heat is no moro a material substance than motion, gravita tion or magnetism, but that it is moroly a conditi* ii of matter; and that in tho caso in question, instoad of passing off from tho Hurtli, it would only become, by a gradual chemical action, fixed or latent. But oven supposing that cooling would or did take placo, it is a well known fact that all subslaneos—water in the state of ico alone excepted— increnso in density or weight ns their heat is diminished, so that Lite cooler portions would bo tho first to sink from tho surfaco toward the center. 19 it not quite evident that those substan ces most difficult of fusion, and possessing tho greatest specific gravity, would there fore be the first to find tiieir \fcny to the center? Now, gold, platinum nnd a fow of tho precious metals possess thoso quali ties in a high degreonbovo all other known substances, and though wo know them to be scare o on tho surface of the earth, wo have no assurance that they tiro not abun dant in nature. L believe that the interior of the earth is abundantly supplied with, if not mainly composed of thorn. Tim specific gravity ol the earth has been vari ously calculated at 4 95, 5.44, 5.48 and 656, whilo that of platinum is 21.5, and gold 19.3. The spooihe gravity of the rocks | which mainly compos© tho crust, which U under our observation, doos not exceed 2 5; nnd supposing that the average donsi- ; ty of all tho constituents of tho earth, cx- 1 copt tho metals named, is no higher, about one-fifth of tho earth may ho composed of | gold and platinum—a globe lour or five | thousand miles thick. The value of such l a deposit mny be dimly imagined, when I it is remembered that live million dollars 1 will go in a box two nnd a half foot oubo. I Certainly no safer placo for such a deposit could bo found than, the heart of tho earth.” | In responso to a communication from a i Southern gentleman,-who proposed certain measures for re-establishing tho labor sj’s- j tom of tho South, Oonoral Howard has I replied ns toliows : Any specific planta tion regulations, which arc not inconsist ent with iho freedom of tho employees, muy be adopted anywhere, nnd 1 will cheerfully aid in their cxcnitiuiij but 1 am equally anxious to afford as much lati tude as possible to individual enlorpriso, without assuming to interfere too much with merely local regulations.
