The Cholera Raoino in New York.—The Commercial Advertiser, of Friday, says tbe facts show conclusively that cholera is now raging in certain portions of the city, and it is beyond doubt that the epidemic is pur suing its incipient steps, beginning in regions most favoiably disposed for its development The tacts relative to the number of cases on Hart's Island are deemed so appalling that publicity is denied. Surgeon Calhoun, of that post, has died of cholera, and an able corp» of pbyaicians have been sent to that island, a»d also to Governor’s Island. vertising medium.

McConnell wias called to attend John Hart and Patrick Brcsden, who arrived from Savannah yester day. He found the msuffering fron an attack of cholera, in ffts worst form. These men say that they were in the employment of the Government on Tybee Island, working on the light house, and fearful of contracting the disease they left the island. The former, through the skilfulncss of Dr. McConnell, is in a fair way of recovery. The latter died to day at 12 ra-. having suffered only four hours from the time ol liis taking the disease. It is passing strange, that though we have a place for quarantine, yet the country is in a fair way of being exposed to this dread ful plague. As it is, quarantine seems to be a useless expense. M. D. Radical Malionitt.—It will be Jremem- bered that Mr. Harvey, the Minister to Por tugal, addressed a letter, some time since, to Mr. Seward, in which he disapproved of and censured the course of the dominant faction in Congress towards the President and his restoration policy. It seems that this letter was made the subject of discussion in the U. S. Senate on the 20th instant, when a re port recommending that no appropriation be mode for his salary, was agreed to. A prom inent Radical paper endorses this infamons action of the Senate and urges that all other gentlemen on the diplomatic list entertain ing similar views will be treated in like man ner. Government Receipts and Expenditures. Tbe official statement just published shows that between the 1st of July, 1865, and the 31st of March, 1866, the receipts of the United States Government from all sources was §949,159,535 66; the expenses for all pur poses and objects, §818,668,889 62. From April 1st, 1866, to June 30, exclu sive of sneb as arc connected with the pub lic debt, Government receipts were, §129,- 353,812 07; expenditures, §72,988,163 16. Release or Rbownlow’s Victims at Nash ville.—A private telegram from Nashville says that tbe posse comitatus ordered by the court in the habeas corpus case of tbe ex members of the Tennessee Legislature, under arrest by the House, broke into the capitol and rescued the prisoners from the custody ol the Scrgeant-at-Arms. Qn being brought before me Judge by the Sheriff and bia/>osse, the ex-members were discharged from arrest Brownlow's court declared that this was in augurating civil -wn. A Rebuke to Ihe Dead Dark. In an editorial on the disgraceful scenes which have of late been enacted in the United States Senate, the New York Evening Post says.” The Senate yesterday permitted itself to be will outraged by the reading of a most indecent dispatch from GovemorBrownlow,of Tennes see, to J. W. Forney, tbe Secretary of the Senate, which dispatch, it seems, Mr. Forney hud previously published in his paper. We hope the Senate will yet vindicate its self- respect by dismissing from his place of Secretary a person who could thus violate the decencies of life, and show such flagrant disrespect to the office of the Chief Magistrate as he did by making public Governor Brown- low’s dispatch. Tbe Senate owes it to its own dignity, and to the preservation of the public morals, to relieve from duty immedi ately an officer who has so little sense of propriety aud decency as Mr. Forney has just shown. i"—tr Paper Hangings AND Window Shades.

It is a-ple&surc for tbe living to dwell on the memo ry of departed friends, whom death has made doubly dear. 1 look ba«;k with pleasure to the existence of my father, J. HAMILTON COUPER, Esq., for In his life 1 see a double lesson of humility and exalted vir. The diamond may be crushed—its value is lost; but the intrinsic merit of man is as brilliant after death as during life- it is the more so, because death hallows it. It was my father's lot to walk in the straight and narrow pith of duty, never for a moment to lose sight of what he owed to God and society, to toil unceasingly for three score years and ten with that one object steadily before him. Endowed by nature with a feeble constitnUon-.^when dnty called he went •heerfully; not that he was brave, but because when honor was iu view he could not see danger. Was it not he who volunteered to act a9 Sheriff of Glynn ounty when its people were determined tnat no man should live and hold that office ? and yet he braved the danger, going forward resolutely. The people did Dot harm, but honored him for his courage and devo tion, for, liberal and sclf-sacridciug, he never was known to beg for place or preferment; he took the post of danger as belonging to lnm by right: that he occupied few such in his lifetime was because where he lived few were 10 be had. And again, poor weak man that he was, in that dark and terrific night when the deck of the Pulaski/ was a scene ol anguish and despair, he coolly and quietly sought out those who had been entrusted to his care and never ceased to toil aud endure till, by the assistance of his friends, he had placed them on the beach. His duty done, he, too, had been swallowed up iu the sea; but God has never yet seeu a tust man perish, aud other hands than his saved him. He who saved others was himself saved to rear up frail men like himself, who have braved the storm that broke over our devoted land and did nobly in her cause. But what need we com mend their virtue. It is such as they, men who wore the same uniform and battled in the same cause, that, now that the war is over, by their orderly behavior, their honest, tmthfnl wavs, command the respect of both enemies and friends; by the propriety of their conduct they havo changed the enmity of their foes Jnto respect. Such men are objectionable to none; and my father, in his lifetime, could name two sons such as these, and a nephew, educated, like them, un der his roof. Need I mention Hamilton Couper and his brother John, and their cousin, Captain John C. Fraser; brought up together, proud representatives of honor, wit and intrepid courage, they live no more; but faithful friends cherish their memories. Did not Hamilton Couper die wishing he couhl have sacrificed not only his life, but his last drop of blood for his country? He did not desire to live, but it was so hard, it stung him to the quick, to have to die with blood in his heart when his country needed it. And John Couper had no sooner laid his brother in the grave than he, too, gallantly moved ou with the Sixtieth Georgia through the terrific battles around Richmond, and then calmly yielded to the death that was the in evitable result of his exposure—a lamb or lion, as it might be, sacrificed on his country’s altar. Did not aptain Fraser leave a poor, infinu, widowed nether, his helpless sisters, and his sister's children, with none to support them, save only God, who loved him and in whom he trusted, to die like a Mtoainglid and blocdy, miles from our frontier, the foe? He who reads the record of such men as these reads the record of iny father ; they died where he would have been had he had the strength to go there. None that he reared failed their country in its need; as he designed, so they grew up. When the Lord called him, a new day and a rising 9un warmed and cheered liis departing spirit. Special Notices.

Had you taken this genla, tonic as a preventive, yon would have no need of It as a care, for It renders the system Impervious to all miasmatic fevers. Bat etneo yoa neglected the pre caution, rid yourselves without delay of the com plaint by resorting to the only reliable remedy.— Break the chills with HOSTETTETl'S BITTERS, and they will return no more. This is the experience of thousands, and It will tie yours. Quinine Is a slow means of relief; It Is nauseous to the last degree; It Is more dangerous than tbe malady Itself; In many cases It utterly falls. How different is the effect of the Bitters. Their curative action Is rapid; they are agreeabld to tbe palate: they are not only entirely harmless, but tend Inevitably to strengthen the con stitution and prolong life; they never hav. failed, and it is confidently assumed that they never can fall In any case of Fever and Ague, however inveterate in Its character. To be without Eostetter’s Bitters in any region Infested with Intermittent or Remittent Fever Is simply to reject asrety and court disease.
