TIM CHOLERA AT Tomo,.

We regret to have to record an increalre oi t
cholera at Toulon, the deaths from cholera ea the 22nd
having increased to 61 from 38 on the previous dag. Th e
Totrionnaie of the 23rd coattails the following We have
already approved of the fires lit in the streets every everting
during the last week, sad we have above all bents is mind
the moral upset of those masifestatieos, encouraged as
they are by the municipal authorities. Those fires are a
distraction to the mind, and serve to strengthen
the courage of the inhabitants. It would besides
appear that the epidemic of cholera at Oosetantinople
nly seated after the vast confiegritiou which de-
stroyed two quarters of that city. The salutary effect of
the flume was therefore shown on a huge scale, sad that
is a snfident eoeoneagement to the administration of the
town to persevere in thee& mesmeric They are, however,
badly carried out, and those persons who light up the
fires, suppesieg that It is the smoke that purifiee the air,
throw water, wetted fuel. or old shoes on the burning
piles, with the idea of oreatiag as much smoke as pas-
sible. The result Is that the sinew streets are filled
with a heavy and suffer:main atmosphere which
penetrates the apartments to the great ineonve-
Mance of even people in good health, but of invalida
espedelly, several of whom have been made much worse in
oorwequenoe. The population has, moreover, spontane-
ously organised a kind of rejoicing which has become in-
tolerable for persona who require rest, sad for the doh. At
silent crackers are let off in the street* in every direction.
That noisy display of fireworks continues until 10 in the
evening, and the detonations awake suddenly those persona
who are worn out with fatigue, and are endeavouring to
repair by deep the effects of a laborious day, and espe-
cially the sick, for whom quiet and repose ere so necessary.
If even those disturbers were est,silect with noiseless fire-
works there would perhaps be little inoonveeisuce. Yester-
day
evening Dr. Bougarel, one of our yousgsst phydelaoa,
was attacked by the epidemic in the antra of his devoted
Inactions ; was lying is a dangerous state, and his
family had solicited that the tattoo should not be beaten
on the Place d'Artnee, where his residence is situated, which
request was granted. The drums were consequently silent,
but the Doles of the crackers was inceennt, to the peril
of a pbyelaian who was 'offside( from his sail and devoted-
nue. We therefore hope that We administration will rigor-
ously prohibit those unseemly rejaitinp, which are canted
on at the espouse of the victims of the epidemic, and aut-
. not be productive of soy advantage whatever."

GLADIATEUR" AT THE PARIS AUTUMN
MEETING.

Sunday's card excited but little interest so far
as the !Wog was °encircled, although the knowledge that
Gladiateur would start for the Prix du Princes Imp rW at-
tracted a math larger number of spectators than would
otherwise have been present. The empty benches is the
Grand Stand, however, showed that the continued fine
weather still retains the fashionable world at Trouville and
Baden.
The first race for decision was the Prix de Ole.
tigny, which brought out a field of five, all winners,
and produced some spirited betting, Quaker on the
strength of the boating he had given Tottruialet on
the previous Sunday being installed favourite. Lalle
Rookh, the second in the French Oaks, bad, however, many
supporters at a point longer odds, and as both with respect
to weight were on equal terms, the race appeared, as it
eventually proved, a match between the two. Quaker re-
peated his victory after making the running throughout.
The sellieg race which followed was the best contested
event of the day. At the distance five of the six starters—
Doge bad got badly off—were running abreast across
the course, Aeglo•Sexoo aid Fostanges then drew
slightly in advance, and ran neck and neck to with-
in a couple of lengths of the winning poet, when Arthur
Watkins, who rode the former, mad* a magaificeet effort,
and landed him a winger by a short head. The others
finished in such close order that no third was placed. The ,
Prix de Madrid, as from the confines, of the race is usually
the case, brought out the most Megabir lot of hones to be
seen at Paris or Chantilly throughout the year. Even the
old 111111, Alate, who only a few mouths back had a foal
beside her, wee brought back from the stud farm to the
nerecoaree on this eocasioe. The winner turned up in Fitz
Australian, a horse whose performances had hitherto been
confined to the small meetings in the south of Franco The
appointees of Gladiatenr reduced the field for the great
race of the day to very small proportions, as only Vertu-
gadin came out spinal bin, of the fifteen entered, although
the half of the entries were reserved for the second horse.
It is hardly necessary to 8413 that Gladiateur was the
winoer, but Wertngadin certainly made him gallop, and the
last half mile, as Grimahaw himself declared, was run at
a rattling pane. The last prize of the day also fell to
Conot de Legrange with Le Mandarin, on whom long odds
were laid, notwithstandieg that he gave a lump of weight
to each of the other starters.
