PARK SUSDAT Evmmro.
The cholera returns from Toulon are fitietnadall-
On Sept. 26 there were fifty-three deaths from the
disease, and it was hoped it was diminishing ; but
a letter of the 28th reports sixty-one up to 4 o'clock
only. Among the deaths of well.known persons
on the 28th were those of Madame Dubard, the
wife of the Procureur-Imperial ; M. de Lucent's*
lieutenant of Marines ; a captain of the 22nd of
the line; M. Henry, navy surgeon ; and Dr. Seamus,
surgeon in the Military Hospital. The Toulon-
nais complains of want of proper provision for
the decent burial of the dead, and also of the ra-
pacity of certain sextons and beadles, who, while
corpses are in the church portals, coarsely and with
threats demand their fees "beforehand." The
maritime authorities seem to consider plenty of meat
and wine a preservative. Orders have been given to
serve out rations of meat to sailors seven times
a week instead of five, and wine with every meal.
The punishment of "stopping wine" is to be
discontinued except in cases of men addicted to
drunkenness. Officers are authorised in certain
cases to double the rations.
At Sollibs-Pont the cholera broke out very sud-
denly. On Monday evening the sanitary state of
the town was as good as possible, and on Tuesday
60 cholera cases oocurred, of which 55 proved fatal
in 36 hours. The inhabitants fled from the infec-
tion in such numbers that according to the last
accounts "scarcely anybody was left in the place
but the authorities." Three surgeons bad been
sent by the Prefect from Toulon, sad 10 convicts
to bury the dead. Although the present cholera
visitation in France is slight compared to what
has been seen on former occasions, the panic in the
south is unparalleled. Arles is depopulated and so is
La Bayne. The people fly without knowing, in
many instances, where they are going to. Several
bankers in the north of France have given notice
that they cannot undertake to get bills paid or
protested in Marseilles or Toulon. At Marseilles
the diminution in the Number of cases appears to
be more persistent than at Toulon ; on Thursday
there were but 19 fatal cases against 33 the day
before. In the fires which the inhabitants have
been for some time lighting in the streets, it is now
recommended, as a further preservative, to throw a
dozen quarts of liquid lime when the flames are at
their height.
The Nord of Brussels, which, since it lost its
political importance, together with the Russian
subsidy with which it originally started, aspires
to be the chronicle of " high life," sets about the
story that M. Emile 011ivier is about to be married
to Mdlle. Bouvet, the Empress's reader.
An eminent Paris surgeon has been sent for
to Biarritz to perform au operation upon M.
Emile de Girardin's daughter, attacked with
diphtheria.
The day of the Emperor's return from Biarritz
is not Exed, but he may be expected at St. Cloud
between the 10th and 15th October. The Bordeaux
people who had calculated upon his passing some
hours with them on his way will be disappointed ;
the mayor has received a letter from M. Conti
stating that his Majesty regrets that he does not
see the possibility of varying his programme.
The King sad Queen of Portugal will leave
Lisbon before Oct. 15, to pay a visit to the Emperor
and Empress at Compihgne, after which they will
go to Lyons, Marseilles, Geoeva, Leghorn, and
Florence. There is a rumour that they may
perhaps make an excursion by sea to England.

Gladiateur has returned from France safe and
sound, sad is dons good work every contain at New-
maiket, where it is said he is sure to start for the Cam-
bridgeshire. Paris letters say he is likely to go to the stud
mixt Deana, sad that Count Lange has already had
offers of we km than 31 mares at • subscription of 100

guineas each.
The Dorset papers record the death of Captain
Patsy, at Oanford, in that oounty. He was a midshipman I
on board the Mars at the battle of Trafalgar, and was by ,
the side of Captain Duff when the latter was killed. The
Mara lost 300 out of 500 men on board of her at the famous
battle.

oxen, lambs, sheep, goats, and swine should be ex.
eluded from the fair this day, as also from the market to be
bald in the fair next Thursday. The chief commissimer of
police, Sir Ft. Mayne, based special instructions to carry
oat the order of the justices, and a strong force of police
were in attendance to see that they were obeyed.
The result was that there was no cattle of any
desmiptioa in the market, though an abeam=
of hones wen on sale, and an immense quantity of
geese and all descriptions of poultry. The pleasure fair
was filled with shows, booths, fu., the whole tows ap-
peared to be redolent with the savoury smell of the
favourite edibles of Croydon fair. Special trains were run
at short intervals, and some thousands of pergola were
brought down from the metropolis.
BROUGEI•HILL FAlR.—This important North of
England fair accounmeed on Saturday, acid will be coo.
tinned today. Five inspectors appointed by a local sear
claim, in mince= with the authorities, examined all the
cattle ea they cams on the ground, and found sone of them
showed symptoms of disease. The supply of both cattle
and sheep was unusually small, but there was a good show
of horses, chiefly of the class for ;thong work. The fair
vas a dear, hard selling one ; good for the seller, but not
very profitable for the buyer. There were a great many
dealers from Yorkshire present, who did a good trade in
hones, which sold at prime ranging from 51. to 25/. Most
of the cattle were of the Irish breed. Prices may be

ARROW RECAPIL—OD Thursday a boat accident,
which was nearly fetal to three persons, occurred upon the
Thames at Bove:my-lock, • short distance from Windsor.
A skiff coatainiog a Mr. Gray, his wife, end child, on
nearing the lock gates, lodged fur a moment against
the timber frame of the oposiog to tato lock, when
Mrs. Gray becoming alarmed, rose up in the boat, which
immediately capsized, and all three were precipitated into
the water at the very moment the lock gates were being
thrown open. Mr. Gray, who is so excellent swimmer,
soeceedea in getting hold of his wife end child, but found it
difficult to support them, as they were nearly in 10(a of
water, and were immersed several times in the rapidly
flowing river. Very fortunately an officer of the Grenadier
Guards, who was about 20 yards from the spot in a punt,
witnessed the danger, sad, just as all hope wee over, suc-
ceeded in getting Mr. and His. Gray and their little boy
into hie poet, Mrs. Gray being in 'fainting condition. Had
the officer not been neir enough to render such timely assist-
mos, ell three would hive been drowsed.
A Fr-id atz Sr. PATRICI.—The Union Franc

RAISING THE DEAD TO LIM—SOON unfortunate
individual is the well•knowo, we might almost add, famous
Wiltshire village of Bishop's Camas's, has been recently
doing his beet to keep up the "charter." We hear that he
has held one or two open air services of a "revival"
character, and that oc Sunday afternoon last he
announced his intention to raise • dead man to life.
We cannot personally vouch for the fact, but learn on
creditable authority that by his desire the turf was removed
from the grave of a person recently interred, and that
this deluded man prayed for some time over the grave is the
expectetioo that the dead man would be restored to life.
Bat this knot all. It is actually stated that the friends of
the notorious,* deceased were persuaded by Bally to bring
out sheets to the churchyard in which to wrap the body
when it should be restored. However, we believe the
alacrity:Ace', learning what was going co, at last pot •
stop to the folly, and desired the policeman to isteefere to
prevent any renewal of each an absurdity. Pity it was let
go so far.— Wiltshire Independent.

THE TYPICAL must be admitted
that the typical Irishman is a Protects. View him in ape
way, he is the Merry Andrew of Europe, • ragged roguish
clown who never opens his month but to utter fie a
brogue which is itself ridiculous) either a jest or a brit.
View him from another side, he is the suffering victim of
unmerited oppressioo, the patient martyr of his wicket
faith, the sensitive, poetic Celt, whose phrase ere rich
with imagery and pathos, and whose soul breathes through
such melodies as the "Lest Rorie of Summer" and
"Savourosh Deelish." Now —he is the tipsy bully, brand-
ishing his shillelagh in • faction fight and trailing his
ragged coat in the mud to provoke his equally pugnacious
neighbour to trample upon it. And now—he is the silent
secret plotting Ribbonman, nourishing his Vendetta for
years, till he can shoot his unarmed anti helpless victim
from behind a hedge. Now—he is the most warm-hearted,
faithful creature is the world, toiling to reap Twill&
harvests and win bread for the wife end children be ten-
derly loves. And now—be is the idlest laziest loom that
ever lay smoking by the side of • ditch, while his cabin
fell to pieces for want of repair, and hie ragged and half-
starved children tan uocared for about the boge. rho
Irishman is religious, chaste, and charitable. He is also
idle, improvident, and vindictive. He is the bravest of
soldiers, and the moss arrant morel coward is the world ;
the hero of Foetenov and the slave of every vulgar priest.
He is the Martyr of Europs—red the Bufficoe.—Proser's
ilogaziae for October.
