Report of Deaths by Cholera: on Buddy 2l; on Monday 9. The fol- lowing shows what was the natural state of feeling iii that city last week.
 BALTIMORE, Sept. II.
 The Cholera.-fhe report of deaths up 10 yesterday morning ten o'clock, Is more moderate than we had anticlpa- ted. and indicates that there was more caution exercised on the preceding day than is usually observed on the sao- hath. Ourbopes are once more raised, that the cholera is finally sabsldlng Tn our city. It will be long remembered, and Thursday and Friday last will stand prominent as the days of alarm and horror. The stoutest hearts were dis mayed, and thefeeling of awe was writ ten on every countenance. Friends and acquaintances dropped around Us, and sunk into the silence of death; 1; and it appeared as though the Destroy inp Angel had been sent on his commis- sion to our devoted city. But it has pleased the Almighty to partially arrest the disease, and to diminish the num- Der of it's victims. Stiliit is essential that every man should "put IIis house in order,'' and be prepared for the event, be it life or death. He who has done this, may await the issue in calm ness and tranquility, firmly coniding in the mercy of Him who guides and governs all things to his own glory, and for our good. CRronic5e.

Original Aaecdote.-A member of the Massachusetts Legislature, from one of the interior towns, from the cares of business at home, grew thin and poor in the Calvin Edson sense of the word. On his arrival at the metropolis, tue good fare of a good Boston landlord, and the relaxation from business, {epery body knows it is no great affair to say yea or nag in the House of Representa-. tives) caused him to grow heshy and corpulent to such degree as almost to excite the surprise of his brother legisla- >tors. Surprise turned to laughteris the most exciting of all laughter; and it was so in this case, whenssome incorri- gible wag wrote with chalk uponsfhe back of the members overcoat, ss Fat ted at the expense of the State.o This brief explanation of his sudden rotundi- 'ty of countenance and figure, the hon. orable member in question unconscious .ly carried with him nearly whole day much to the amusement of his breth- 'ren-. at the expense of the Slate.''
