Even from the remote territory of Montana, where to raise ccm in abundance, little more is necessary than to punch holes in the soft prairie and drop the seed, cornea the sad refrain—hard times. And this is true, for tf any evidence Is anting to prove it the faot that the Bczcman Avant Courier publishes the vinegar bitters ad vertisement, at the rates of the owner, leaves not shadow of doubt behiLd. But that journal aaya misery Iovas oompany, and goes on to quote from it. exchanges, as follows: Commencing with the great State of Ohio — girdled with railroad, and having every desira ble means of communication—we have the Cin- cinnaatj Star indulging in a doleful conplainl about the stagnation in all branches of trad}, says. “A farmer told ns this morning that he met about twenty farmers et B.tavia, the county seat of Clermont, and tffered to bet a hnndred dollar bill thit not one of them had ‘msde both ends meet* during the pis! two years; and not one of them wonid take the bet. It is the gen eral declaration of the farmers that at present prices for pork and corn, they cannot live with- out catting down expenses to almost the condi tion of the European peasant. What about wheat? The prices are said to be good, but when the failures in ths crop are aoeouuted it little or no better than corn and pork.” Missouri is another State that we deemed prosperous, and yet we learn from the papers that the wheat in Missouri last year was almost a total failure, and farmers are now paying $ 5 per hundred for flinr, while they only realize 11 to 20 cents a bushel for their corn. “We can get nothing for onr corn at all, and corn is about all we raise. Wood is t-earee. We have no money to buy, and therefore burn onr corn. Eutero people at first denounced the Nebraska use of corn for furl, bat ss soon &s they stop to think, they see that food and fuel are convertible terms, and that the purpose of using corn, whether ss food or fuel, is tbe same —namely, to keep np tbe temperature of the body; tbongh, in one eaee by internal, and in the other by the external applications. ‘Burn ing corn,' then, btcimts a question not of morals bnt of eoonomy. A bn-hel of corn in tbe eir weighs 70 ponnds, and 29 bnshels a ton, earning, at 15 cents a bnshei, scarcely $4 50 Bat a ton of oorn has been found equal to a oord of wood, whethor for cooking or heating. In half the oonntry wood ready for tbe stove coats more than $4 50, and its prioe is raising.” From Illinois. Iowa, Wisconsin, and indeed the whole tier cf Western States, and Territo ries we have reports of an entire lack of domsnd for agricultural prodnots. The faot is, the country just now is pas-ing through one of those periodical revnlstons that occasionally sweep over the commercial world and leave in their track the wrecks of great badness enterprise. All of whiohisa clineher to the canal argu ment. “If these things are so in the green tree what will they be in the dry ?” If this new oonntry, yet in its infancy, is already producing oorn Id each vast quantities, who can estimate tho emoant of breed and most which will is-uc from it for the healing of the nations and the supply of the waste places of earth, in future years.

The personnel of the Iato convention; tbe numerons dignitaries and statesmen who have the car of the nation, snch men as Woodson, Brown, Hendricks, Thomas and others, who were present, give strong assurance that the great work will be pressed to completion.

Tbe bill, ho says, is Lao in fault in some other particulars. ■ The vote in the House on the question “Shall fee bill pass notwithstanding the veto ?” was 5: nays to 60 yeas—lacking 15 of the regular two- ilrds majority. Albany was much excited |ver the veto message, and the teetotallers were prions npon tho Governor. In all probabilty be experiment of prohibition in New York has keen postponed bnt a short time.

Strike at the fountain head—stop ^manufacturing, as well a3 dealing in it, either In large or small quantities, or leave tho trade open to license in all its branches. As Abtitictal Fisk Posd.—The city editor P.f the Eufsnla Times tells of an artificial fish id belonging to Col. Harrison, near George town, and says the place is one of great beanty. WCho pond was formed many years ago, by dam a spring branch flowing between two small r-ills or gentle mounds, and then stocked with -ot, bream and perch, which have multiplied t from year to year, until the pond is alive with tilth of the kind named. The water is almost as felear as glass and, nestling as the pond doas, V n ■ wrd.nt undergrowth of trees, and at the K'oot of a gentle slope leading down from the [residence, it ijrm a landscape of surpassing [bear. t. Tie spring fnrnisbes the pond with a [never failing (apply of fresh water, which finds ran outlet through a bath house at the lower lodge of the pond. Wo took a dive into the Vlear, cool and sparkling water of this inatitn- ~tion daring onr visit, and it refreshed us to the p atent almost of a complete rejuvenation. We alao tried our hand for a while with rod and ., e, and took iu out of the wet a few moat bf. autiful bream and one small trout. A sign in Michigan reads a* follows: qT''o * nii t,iatre ® l * • Perfect gorge Fnneral of Bev. Bobert C. Smith; The mortal remains of this Christian gentle man and able minister of Christ, wero taken to tbe Fresbytorian Church at 4 r. si. yester day, whore the funeral obsequies were perform ed by Rev. A. W. Clisby, the pastor, assisted by Bov Wm MaKay. J. J. Croohata, Called Anderson, Washington Poo, James T. Niabet, Joseph E. Welts, Sr., S. Bates and H. H. Jones acted as poll-bearers. The cervioes were very solemn and impressive, the speaker dwell, ing upon the neoessity for Godliness in this life, and depicting tho rewards of the righteous hereafter. Tho deceased was rematkablo for his unaf fected piety, decision of character, and untir ing industry. As an educator of youth he was faithful and thorough, and has left his impress npon many of the first minds in Georgia. It was heartrending to behold the grief of his numerous offspring, several of whom aro still but little removed from infancy. Surely if there is any branch of publio charity whloh should be generously sustained, it is the land for the support of the indigent families of deceased ministers. _. The servioes were concluded at the grave, and the ashes of tbe faithful man of God tenderly laid away ia a beautif nl spot beneath the spread ing boughs of umbrageous trees, thore to await the signal trump which shall proclaim the resur rection morn. Lst me die the death of the righteous and my last end be liko his. Central I’ark Itlnsenm. Tbe Tribune says some Important additions havo just been made to tho Central Pork Museum In the series of American history. Among them are implements and relics from Porto Rico, which inclnde a number of stone rings, fash ioned like the oollar of a dray horse. They are each cut from a single piece of very dense rock, sre shoot 20 inches broad, two feet long, and 2J inches thick. The custom of sacrificing hitman lives at the altars of idols in Mexico was, it appears, also in vogue in Porto Rico, and those atono collars formed part of the parapher nalia belonging to the ceremony. The place chosen for the rites was on a terrace, called teocottis, npon which the victim, with face up ward, was placed. Underneath his back was a wooden blook, while around his neck one of the stone collars was placed for the purpose of cans ing the breast to protrude. The priest would then advance and with his knife wcnld ent open the breast and pluck out the heart, still throb bing. The rings are rudely marked by z’g zig linee. The officers of the Museum have just per fected arrangements for procuring from New England a unique collection of skeletons of the ’ rgest birds known existing or fossil. In gen- _ al outline and In structure they resemble the ostrich, having the feebly-developed wings, long neck, short bill and stout legs of that bird. The birds were, as far as known, confined to New Zealand, where the specimens of tho Mu seum were discovered. The natives call them moan, bnt the scientific name is dinomis. or terrible bird. One specimen will be the Dinor- nis gigigantens, another the Palaptrix Elephan- topes, besides two other specimens analogous in character. The Dinornis is taller than a gi raffe. being over fifteen in height. Its feet would make tracks larger than the fossil foot prints found in the red sandstone in the Con necticut Valley, which were a source of wonder for many years, while the bones of the head and trunk are very much stronger than those of an ostrich. They were found dnriDg the making of a series of excavations under the direction of the Curator of the Christ Church Museum, New Ztaland, who sent to tho British Mnseum the only specimen it possesses of this remark able animal. Within the riba of tbe birds were found a number of exceedingly hard round peb bles, which were evidently used by the bird in grinding its food. The specimens are expected to arrive in November. Tbe spring reoeption of tho subscribers of the Museum will take place this afternoon. The officers of the Ma* senrn have lately issued a circular inviting an nual §10 subscriptions, to be used for paying tho current expenses. All paying this sum are admitted to the receptions, and will reoetve mention in the annnal reports. • Uxitzd Statxs and Mexioo.—The Washing ton correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette thicks that the Mexican question is fast resolv ing itself into thcae elements: 1. The establishment against Mexico of Maims on aoconnt of damage done American citizens exceeding by at least twenty or thirty millions all chums established by Mexioo against tbe United States. 2. An exhausted Mexican treasury. 3. A cession of territory to tbe United States. An assumption by the United States of all Maims of American citizens. We shall shortly bear that Mexioo is the sick jn.n of this oontinent, and that we must take him, with his mongrel progeny, under our neighborly, fostering oars. THE GEORGIA PRESS. Rev. J. S. Kzy, of Columbus, will preach the Commencement sermon and Mr. R. G. Glenn, of the same place, will deliver the literary ad- dress before LeVert female oo’dege, at Talbot- toD, the first week in Jnly. Tire Columbus Sun, of Friday afternoon, says: Twistt Pzb Cent. Dividzxd— No Rush.— Yesterday the assignees commenced paying, at tbe Merchants and Mechanics Bank, the credi tors of Mr. John King s twenty per cent, div idend. It was expected there would be a rush, but on the oontrary everything was of the most quiet description. Creditors seemed satisfied tne; would get their money, and were in no hurry to draw it. Home of the largest did not appear. Only some $14 000 were drawn, and of this amount about $12,000 were deposited immediately after in the Merchants and Me chanics Bank, and most of the remainder will be. As the total liabilities are $305,000. there remtins to be paid seme $40,000. One creditor, in re-depositing his funds, said he preferred not having a twenty per cent, dividend deMared on that amount. Da Wm. G. McBeidz, one of the representa tives in the Leg’slstnre from Washington conn- ty, died at Cindnnsti on the 16 h instant, of pneumonia. He had been in that city come weeks under treatment for cancer.

Tb* Industrious firs threatens to deprive the people of Troop county of a spring term of the Superior Court. The Judge says he can stand moderate quantity, but not the myriads that roost under the Conrt-houBe at LrGrange. “To prevent an inference that might be drawn from our silence upon the subject of the refasai of tbe Governor to pardon this unfortu nate lady (Snsan Eberhan), we take occasion britfly to say that we did nut approve that re fusal.

Fbim Washington Countt.—The Sanden- villa Herald reports fearful mortality among tt e chickens—one man losing forty hens. Fried chicken has played out, and all sorts of church gatherings are indefinitely postponed. Tn* ehip “Agenor” was oieared from Savan nah for Liverpool on Thursday, with 4,480 bales of npland and 155 bales of sea island cotton. The whole cargo was valued at $300,111 G7 and Is the largest that has ever been loaded at the Savannah wharves by any ship. It was put on board and stowed away in just twenty-one days. Says the last Quitman Banner: ComnTTED to Jail.—Distant readers of the Banner will remember tbe dttails of a horrible case of incest, oemmitted some e'ght months ago, by one J. W. Stalnaker. Full particulars wero given at the time through this journal, aod tho party ought to have been arreBted, tried aed punished; but he mado bis escape, and the matter was almost forgotten, when the return of Stalnaker, on last Friday night, revived re membrance of tho horrible crime and indigna tion of an ontragod community. Ho soon as it was ascertained, on Hatnrday morning, that Stalnaker was in town, he was arrested, and in the afternoon arraigned before Judge Harden, sitting as a O u nrt of Inquiry. Tho prosecution waB represented by Oapt. H. G. Turner, and tho defence by Messrs. Bennet & Kingsberry. Considerable evidenoe was introduced on the part of the prosecution, and there existing rea sonable belief of the guilt of tbe prisoner, he was committed for trial at tho next term of the Superior Oonrt. Tbe Federal Judioial machinery at Savannah came to a halt on Thursday—both courts ad- jenrning until November. The weeping, and walHrg and profound disgnst of Potash snd tbe npright jurymen of tbe oir color who naa cal culated on a job that wonid savo them from work all summer, arc said to have been Effecting in the extreme. We find these locals in the Hamilton County News: Killed et a Snake.—A freedman, eighteen years old, in' the employ of Mr. J. M. Kim brough, living seven miles southwest of Hamil ton, went fishing lost Friday night on a neigh boring branch. He sat down on a pile of rub bish, "which he pnt his hand down to move, when be was bitten on the finger by a mocca sin. Dr. Brace was sent for eighteen hours after, and fonnd him in a comatoio condition, talking incoherently, and oauld only get him to swallow even flaids with the greatest difficulty. He died on Sunday. Dr. Bruce informs ns that he remarked peculiarities about this case which the has never witnessed before in any similar ono in his praelioe. He frequently blow tike an adder, protruded his toDgue, and struck at everything within his reach—always striking nnvthing he hit at. He wonid seize the bed clothing and shake it, and in every way imitate the actions of a snake. Di-stbessiso Accident —We regret to record tbe psinfnl socident which befell onr townsman, Major R. G. Hood, last Wednesday morning While superintending work in his mill, ho fell from the building to tbo top of tho dam, a dis tance of seventeen feet, and rollgd eff into the mud at the bottom of the pond. He sustained fracture of one bone of the leg and some In jury to his spine. TnE Gainesville Eagle wings its way hither ward this week, considerably enlarged and im proved. We offer our congratulations, and best wishes for even loftier flights in the fature. From it we clip as follows: Seeiocs, ir not Fatal Accident.—We are in formed that a couple of young men, named Pruitt and Merk, of Jackson county, came near being killed last Sabbath evening. Our inform ation is that they were riding horseback, to church, in rather a brisk manner, when suddenly their horses took fright, perhaps at some hogs, and ran through tho woods. Mark's horso throw him against a tree, seriously braising his body and head. He was at last acconnts very low, and bnt little hope of his recovering entertained. Pruitt's horse threw him at about the same time, against the same tree, breaking bis arm just below the elbow joint. WannrN Oabteh, negro, aged fourteen, de veloped the resources of the cash drawer of Mr. Le Gocq, grocer, at Augusta, to the extent of $110 last Wednesday afternoon, and is now fighting fleas in the jail of that city. Bchof Bycswiru delivered his annual ad dress before the Eoisoopal convention at Si vannah on Thursday, embracing an interesting aoconnt of his labors for the psst year, some statistical information concerning the condition of the various parishes, andin conclusion said Before closing, I desire to ask your attention to a matter of, I think, very great importance to the church in Georgia and in the entire South. I commend it to your earnest examina tion. The population of this State is over one million,and of this number 400,000 are ‘colored people.’ Does the church owe a duty to these people? “If so, how can she best perform that duty? There is no difficulty as to the first question—the church does owe them a duty. The second is full of difficulty. I do not pro pose to disease it; my desire is to indace you to think of it. Notice this fact. The colored population of Georgia equals by census of 1870, in round numbers, the population of Nebraska, Oregon and Washington Mission, Colorado Mission, including Wyoming and New Mexico, and Nevada Mission, inMudingArizona. In these Missions there are now four Bishops. Why should not the church send a Missionary Bishop to these 400,000 colored people ? If a careful ex amination of this matter should lead you to the conclusion that the church can ia this way best prepare for and meet her duties to theee peo- n!e, we may be able to convince ethers, and prepare tbe way for some action at its next general convention. If St. Fanl was sent to the Gentiles and St. Peler to the Jews—if we send Bishops to the whites in America and a Bishop to the Indians, why should we not send a Bishop to these colored people ? A comma- nicstion has been received by me from the Sec retary of the general convention, touching cer tain proposed alterations in the constitution, which will be laid upon the Secretary’s table. On motion of the Bev. Dr. Williams, it was ordered that the portion of the Bishop’s address relative to a Bishop for the colored people, be referred to a ooremittee, to consist of the Bish op of the Diceese, three Mergymen, snd three laymen. A gentleman named Dnnlop, remarked that he bad never heard his name punned upon, and didn’t believe it oould be done. There is noth ing more easy, sir, remarked a punster. Just lop off b#if the name and it is Dun. An Oregon paper refer* to in editor on rival sheet as “a young gentleman of frugal mental oepeoity," tbe Cholera Excitement.. The Cincinnati Enquirer says: “The annual scare shout cholera has commoner d. It is a little In advance of the usual time, snd may be justly said to be forcing the season. Thtre have been symptoms of this fright in New Orleans for several weeks. The latest dispatches show that the dread has fallen upon Louisville. Tbe Mayor of that city has ordered the proper pre cautions against the disease, which is the set of. prudence. A few days sgo it was reported in this city that a passenger on a steamboat had died from an attack of cholera while on the np. ward passage. As a little spark kicdleth a great firv, considerable trepidation has doubtless fallen upon the community through fear that this epidemic will foil npon this city as it did in 1866. This fright is to ba deprecated in every as pect bnt one. If it shall serve to stimulate the proper authorities to spread an unusual cleanli ness over the city, an advantage will be gained any event. Bnt the alarm is unquestionably groundless. Cholera is a mysterious, terrible disease. It falls upon tbe victim, and in twen ty-four hours settles the question of his life or death. Taere are thousands who remember how it mowed down people in this city seven years ago, who do not need to be to'd the ap palling character of the maiady. Bat, saving that it conduce! to general cleanliness, which is all times next to godliness, and tbe impera tive need of any city, as well ss of every indi vidual, this scare is all ill-advised, uncalled for snd harmfnL It is built on a slight fonedation the first placa. There is scarcely the slight est danger that cholera, ss an epidemic, wilt visit this city or this country. Oaolera is not a contagion. Physicians agree that it is an inex plicable disea-e, but no intelligent medical man will say that cholera is contagions. Doctors have innocnlated themselves with the blood-bite and discharges of patients in every stage of the dis ease without harmful const quences. There is little donbt either that cholera as an epi- demio is on the decline, All plagues have their origin, growth and fall. The wind blow- ewlh when it luteth and men hear the sotind thereof bnt cannot tell whence it ecmeth or whither it goeth. This is true of epidemics. Cholera, which had dwelt for eentnries in the region of the Ganges, broke out in Calontta as an epidemio nearly sixty yeara ago. In 1820 it slew 150,000 persons in Bombay. A year later had followed the rivers and the roads into Persia, Arabia and Asia Minor. A little more than forty years ago it was traveling over Eu rope. It first appeared this side cf the Atlantic in 1832 at Quebec. Two days later it appeared Montreal. In a fortnight it broke out in New York, and visited most of the large cities of the oonntry. Bat it has not been an epidem- in this country for forty years, the instances that have occurred being wholly exceptional. It not likely to be an epidemio here again. About forty per cent, of tho persons attacked by the malady in all countries die within twen ty-four hours of the time of attack. It is no re specter of climates, flourishing in Sh Peters burg with more regularity than anywhere else, and first making New Orleans via Cincinnati, and not vice versa. It is a dread disease, but it no more likely to sweep away the citizens of Cincinnati, or any city in tbe land, than is s general stroke of lightning. We know not what epidemio may come Dext, bat cholera has had its day. Whether a disease originating in the blood, in tbo nervous system, in tbe irritation the digestive tube, or in a combination of theEO and other provocative causes, a careful survey of its history indicates that tho tiae of the mysterous distemper is falling. We are in very little danger of this disease, if proper pre cautions are taken. L}t us keep clean, bnt not frightened.” Decorating tho Graves. We find tho following under tbe above head the Tribunei, of Wednesday. How tho old readers of that paper must stare sometimes when they find suoh wholesome rending in it. It says: Mach feeling his been created, we aro told, by tbe announcement that the graves of the Confederate dead at Arlington are to be deco rated with flowers on the same day with those of the Union soldiers who lie buried there. A committee of tho Grand Army of the Repnbtio has waited npon the War Department with the Inquiry who controls the grounds on that day, and the request that something be done to pre vent the “insult.” Of course we discover in this demonstration of indignation at the pro posed “insult” the evidenoe of profound pa triotism ana corneas lcj-l.j. w— .l v ....i, y.. baps, be thankful in such times as these for tho nice sense of honor, the exquisitely sensitive love of country, tho reverent patriotism, the constancy of devotion to the Union, and the undying hostility to its dead and buried enemies, of which we have here each tokens. For it mast be confessed that many thingsof late have made ns skeptical of any suoh keenness of suscepti bility. For really, when we sell our seats in the Senate, and onr Senators themselves are bought and sold, when onr Judges haunt the lobbies of Congress to influence legislation for pay, when elections are carried by fraud and tho perpetrators of fraud are protected by Ex ecutive pardon, when wo peddle ont our honor and trado npon onr dignity in the face of all the world, when wo aro scandalized in all de partments by venality, corruption and incom- potency, wo should perhaps welcome anything that seems an honest burst of indignation for whatever cause that has in it something akin to pride of land or race. Tlie Last ol‘ Thomas Sast-f Job. Bedpatb, the somewhat noted Badioal literateur, writes from London as follows to a friend in Philedephia. It is truly cheering to know that the hnman hyena who won such an immortality of shame during tho last Presiden tial canvass, has not even been paid the price of his dirty work, and still more gratifying to hear that he is not likely to return to bis oonntry: But perhaps his day is over in America. He feels deeply for tbo poor here, and it is not at all unlikely that ho may stay. Ho would havo no rival in London. Punch is a flunkey in pol itics. Tho people havo no man whobo penoil is enlisted on their side. N3st has tempting offers, both financial and otherwise, to remain; and there is nothing now in America that is at all tempting to induce him to stay with ns. His share of the spoils of tbe last campaign, for in stance. in which he did snch splendid 6ervico, was—fame, pins a thoroughly tired-out body and mind. And a man can’t live on fame pins a thoroughly used-up physique, you know. Ho left the spoils to publishers snd politicians. Other men got great offices and rich gifts; Nast was never even thought of as entitled to reward. He was not even decently paid for his work as an artist. Cat-Worms la East Tennessee?. The Chattanooga Times of Friday says Mr. John A. Lee, who has just returned from on ex tended tour in East Tennessee, informs us that the cut-worm is making sad haroo in several counties. In Loudon county whole fields of clover acd corn have been completely mown off, ard the ground so lately covered with flour ishing vegetation is a3 bare as a traveled street. The complaint of this scourge was loudest in McMinn, London, Blonnt, Knox, and Green oonnties. Mr. Lee say3 the wheat crop of the eastern section will scarcely be half what it was last year, and if any accident should happen it will fall much below even that. Frnit that escaped frost was almost invariably on high ground. Oats aod meadows aro both backward but looking thrifty. BY TELEGRAPH. A. Putnam County Hortlerer Hnnff, Eaionton, Ga., May 23, 1873. Editors Telegraph and Messenger: Nick Bos well (colored) was hung here to-day for the murder of Bob Bressly (colored). He seemed perfectly resigned to his fate, and conducted the religions services himself up to the last mo ment. He made no speech from the scaffold, but smilingly assured his religious advisers that he was prepared and willing to go. He died with hardly an apparent struggle, and was cut down Bfter hanging twenty-two minutes. Although the execution was private, there was a dense crowd collected in the immediate vicinity, but no disturbance. Putnam. On What a Slendzu Thbead.—The fate of States seems to hang upon a very slender thread in Washington—in confirmation whereof a very curicns story, related by a correspondent of the New York World, in connection with the mis sion of General Dick Taylor last winter, is be ing freely circulated, and, from the authority on which it rests, 13 received with much cre dence. It will be remembered that General Taylor had several interviews with the Presi- idsnt on Louisiana matters, and that he ex pressed himself as encouraged by the result. The statement now made is that General Tay lor’s account of the situation was, by the Pres ident's request, repeated before tho Cabinet, that it produced such an impression that it was determined that the Government had no altern ative but to recognize McEnery; that the Pres ident prepared a message to Congress announc ing this fact; that Senator Morton, hearing of it, immediately went to the 'White House snd protested against any Each action, and as the result of his persuasion the President changed his message, and determined to adhere to Kel logg. The evidenoe in favor of this statement is sneh that it would seem ss if some official notice must be token of it. DAY DISPATCHES. Carpenters’ Strike.

A Tesolntion rejecting that the reconstruction of the Ministry did not afford conservative guarantees was then adopted by 360 to 3(4. Latest from Versatile#. Yfusailles, May 24 —Upon the announce ment of the result of the last vote, M. Birag- nan, a member of the R ghr, said the supreme interest of the oonntry rtqtired that the gov- eminent should not remain silen’. His remarks were rece.ved with noisy protestations by the Left. When the (nmnit had subsided, Baragnan proposed a night sitting of the Assembly. Da- favre, Minister of Justice, ascended the tribune, and declared that France would not remain a moment without a government. Notwithstand ing the vote first cast, there exists a President and the Republic. The Ministry wonid answer tor the maintenance of order. They would consult with the President, and agree to a night sitting. The Left shouted, “Why will tho government thus Bet Europe and Dosterity an example by this monstrons ingratitude ?’’ The Right insisted that the government shonld promptly communicate its deoision to the As sembly. After further debate, amid great excitement, it was decided to have a night session. The te- sult of tbe vote earned intense excitement.

Tho counsel for tho company contend that this was negligence in law, and this was denied on the other side. Great interest is felt in the case bore, as it is thought to involve the safety of passengers and travelers, and is an entirely new point.

Old Time Divobce—Here, says tho New York Tribune, is n curious story of the old slavery times which we pick np from a West ern Carolina newspaper. In the gold mining regioc3 cf Burke county lived an tndnatrions, well to-do free colored woman named Nancy Boyoe. Sho was engaged to marry Jack, a slave, ard in order to havo everything pleas, ant, she put her hand in her pocket and bonght him of his master. Bat Bhe was shrewd enough to take a bill of sale for him, fortunately, as it happened, for Jack turned ont to be "utterly worthless, and a perfect sot. But little need wsb there for Nancy to go to the oonrta for re lief by divorce. She knew a bettor way than that. She owned her man, and she simply so!d him to a slave dealer, who carried him off to the far Southwest, so that the sharp Nanoy was never bothered by him again.

The Asiatic Demon, of Unmistakable Type, Alleged to be Basing in Kew Orleans— Cincinnati Excited Over tbe Ncws-A Tic* tlm Dies en route to Ohio. Cincinnati, May 20 —There was a sensation produced here this afternoon by the offioial announcement of Dr. Wm. Clendenin, Health Officer of this city, that epidemio cholera of the unmistakable Asiatic type has appeared in New Orleans. This statement was verified by an offi cial transcript of tho mortuary report of New Orleans for the week ending May 10, showing the number of deaths from that cause to be eleven. The Health Officer warns the eitlzenB to nse every precaution of cleanliness of person and dwelling to guard against the disease, re minding them that the great epidemio of 1849 was transmitted to this city from New Orleans by passengers on the steamboats. John Schenck, a noted cattle breeder of this county, took the disease in New Orleans last week and died on the steamer on the passage np day before vesterday. His corpse arrived to day. The Now Orleans papers have never men tioned tho faot that cholera ia in the city, although it has been ravaging the plantations on the lower Mississippi for three or four weeks past, and is now so alarming in the city as to affect its business interests.—Herald.

Consequently there will be moro disposition to provide time loans beforehand, and already somo heavy transac tions are reported running to January. This disposition to seek time loans in the summer, reoohlng through tho fall and winter, if it ex tends, aa it bids fair to do, will have tho two fold effect of diminishing the pressure in the fall and winter, and of increasing the activity daring tho dull months between seasons. If, for this and other reasons, money should not lend at as low rates as usual this summer, there will probably be a compensation in the preva lence of easier rates in the fall, especially as the drain of capital from this centre, in conse quence of the fires at Chicago and Boston, has eeased. and wiU in all probability be followed in a few months by a return current setting this way. As the outward flow of capital contriuted so much toward making onr money market sen sitive, tight and bare of funds, so the return of that capital should tend, when it sets in, to do velop ease.” Says the St. Louis Democrat: “The young lady who Bigns herself ‘Louise,’ and sends us a poemlet of twelve verses on the condition of the streets in St. Louis, is re quested to make her poem longer, or wejeannot print it Sixty verses wonid be none too many; meanwhile we will hold on to those in hand, merely whetting the reader's appetite by giving four lines, which reads aa follows: ‘Go see what I have sawn, Go feet what I have felt, Go out at early dawn, l And emelt what I have emett” < LI tt O Id O DECIDEDLY THE BEST IN USE. ’ ‘F, after a FAIR TRIAL, the Freezers do not give ENTIRE SATISFACTION, we will ro tund the money in euvl.
