of his own slaves have been charged with the
crime. arrested, and committed for trial. They
confessed the fact, and Sl220 of the money, his

will be no proof to sustain the accusation against
him.

GENrLEMEN:-A correspondent of mine at
Norfolk, IN letter dated on the afternoon of
yesterday. just before the steamboat left for this
port, thus introduces the subject of the Cholera,
which is now progressing there and in the neigh

detail OF such circumstances as have occurred
in those two places since my communication to
you Of the 3Oth ultimo. which YOU NAV publish if
you think proper. Your readers will find that
these letters will accord with such official reports
as may hereafter be received:
IS Before get to the end of this letter. 7 will

since the last report OF the Board Of Health. I
