ult. The disease was abating. Mr.. Jones, of
the house of Horatio Gates & Co. was supposed
to have fallen victim to the Cholera at Quebec.
On Tuesday last a piece of fresh beef was pla-i
ced npon the highest steeple in Montreal, which
became decidedly and Extensively putrid in 80
minutes!
A large proportion the cases at Montreal
were Canadians-Albany (N. W Journal
1t affords us great satisfaction to have it IN our
power to announce to our readers that the cholera
is very sensibly diminishing, both in the number
of persons attacked and in the mortality We
had an opportunity yesterday of conversing with
several of our medical practitioners, and from all
of them we learn that their services have been
less in request; that the disease had abated in its
yiruence, and the recoveries were very numerous.
Montreal Gazette, June 81.
INDIAN WAR.-Nothing worthy of notice has
transpired on the frontier since our last, except
the suspension of the command of Gen. PosEY
over the LIST Brigade, and the appointment of Gen.
DODGE in his place. This was caused by the
refusal of Gen. Posey to pursue the body of In
tdians that made the attack on the fort at Kei-
llogg's Grove. Our latest accounts from the ar
my, left it in the vicinity of the Four Lakes,
where the Indians still remained, and where it
was expected something decisive would soon take
Il place. Several more murders have been com
mtted in the vicinity of Galena.

FROM RIO DE JANEIRO.

TheBrig Margaret. Myer, has arrived at An
napolis from Rio de Jaueiro, whence she sailed
"nihe 18th December. The editors Of the Bal.
,lmore American learn from Captain NJ. that the
City was BY no means quiet, fears being enter
tanned that a disturbance would take place in
consequence of a petition then in circulation,
the object Of which is to dismiss all foreigners
from the Brazilian service; and to expel the Por-
tuguese from the country. The city was reyu-
larry patrOlied every night, and business almost
alta stand.
The editors have been favored with the annex
cd extract of a letter, dated
"RIo DE JANEIRo, Dec. IA, 1851.

bea:er of this states to m e tina, the ship is wrecked
about two miles and u half north Of Barnegat
Shoals. and when he left the beach last evening,
there was not a soul landed. in consequence of
the sea running SD high. but there is no doubt in

Gen. Putman, Hancock. Of Baltimore, from Lii
verpoOl bound 10 New York, sailed 18th. got
ashore at 5 o'clock this morning s0th Jan 1852. ."
There is no doubt this is the ship Gen. Putnam,
Capt Hancock, sailed from Liverpool the 18th
Dec. bound to this port; ship belongs to BaIti-
more, and has a iull cargo OF hardware ami dry
goods for various merchants in this city; her
freight list amoun's to ESQ.
The underwriters with great promptness des-
patched a steamboat aud a number OF hands last
evening TO save the property. The person who
brought the letter 10 this city was of opinion that
all on hoard was undoubtedly saved. and should
the weather continue mid the goolS will no
doubt b. saved. and possibly the ship may b. got
of She is largely insured in this ciIy. Ship
consigned to Brown, Brothers & Co.
London Packes-The packet ship Columbia
