give recommend Mr.. Clay's Speech to
those who have read the Veto Message of
the President The text will doubtless ap-
pear much clearer after perusal of this
commentary.
@Messrs. HEBRON and DE. WITT,
who have been engaged for some
time in survey Of the Shenandoah
Valley, reached this place on Saturday,
We are not able to communicate any Of
the results. The survey is not yet com.
pleted.
The Cholera is certainly in Ports
mouth and Norfolk. -The deaths in
five days preceding Sunday the 29th,
were, in Portsmouth 81, Norfolk g.
principally blacks.
The Norfolk Board Of Health report.
ed eight new cases within 81 hours, end
ing at II o'clock, noon, on the lst inst
four of which proved fatal. In Ports
mouth. during the same period, it is
stated there were ten new cases and four
deaths.
We have had rumor that the Chole-
ra is also in Richmond this, 1t will be
seen, is contradicted in the following pa
ragraph which we copy from the Wing,
of Monday evening:
"From Wednesday to Friday evening,
fourteen cases and seven deaths are re
ported at Norfolk, 10 cases and ] death
at Portsmouth, and IL cases and 3 deaths
on board the Fairfield, Commodore FL
liott, at Gosport.
We hear from Norfolk more slowly
than public interest renders agreeable.
We do not learn how many cases have
occurred since Friday evening.
Rumors return upon us from various
quarters, of the existence of Cholera
here. They are false, generally and par
ticularly. We repeat the promise ofan-
nouncing it upon its first appearance"
Gen. Jackson in PhiladelphiG-Th
following is from the Philadelphia Gazette
of the Sd instant:
=" we are happy 10 announce that the Jack
son party in the city have concluded to take
council OF their fears, and run no ticke ct under
their own name. Werepeat the expression
OF belief that at this moment there could
not be found In their ranks enough of effici-
ent men to form ticket upon the "veto or
no Ueto' principle"
What this after meeting of from ten
to tpenty thousand including the bone
and sinew Of the party"-''from which there
were no absentees, no skulkers"! Certain
ly the State and local offices have hitherto
been considered tvOrh contest Depend
upon it, there is more ofhopelesness than
generosity in this movement.

One hundred and thirteen individuals
come out over their own names in a
Pittsburg (Pa.) paper, and say they will
support Gen. Jackson at the next cleo
ton, on account Of the Veto on the Bank
bill, though they never voted for him
before.---This appears very strange we
do not perceive the reason oft.
P. s. Since we penned the above
paragraph, we have seen "the other
side" ofthis matter. The Pittsburg Ca
zette declares that there can be found no
men to answer to most of the names on
the list---that few came to the citv
just as the cholera broke out in Canada
land ofthose citizens who had not vot-
ed for Gen. Jackson, it appears that We
ry few Of them had voted for any other
person!
