amen, Of the public, both On account OF the
!, comforts and advantages OF his line OF stages,
nj ,,caa,e he has 50 materially contributed to
,OoJ,e travelling, and render it every way
.,r. safe and agreeable. Many OF our citizens,
so a,ea, in other DAYS, to travel even the short
r,,,ce TO Warrenton, and who now can take
rim up in Smiths stages. can testify to this
,,,,ed. We are told the whole line TO Georgia,
o,.,ing as it does especially in Virginia, through
highly interesting and picturesque country, IS
,ouduc,ed in the most satisfactory manner. We
ash Mr. Smith every success. 1t IS not with
H.. and our citizens generally, the least recon-
neuJa,ion to Mr. Smiths line, that the Agent

be more accommodating, polite and attentive.
The Cholera 1t will be seen by the report
Of our Board 0f Health, that we have again the
same cheering news given yesterday, that no new
case Of Cholera has occurred for the last twenty
four hours. We ardentiy hope that the labors
Of the Board are over, and that they will not
s,an have to report case. The Board com.
ueuced its daily publications on the seventh ct
September and have continued them up to this
DAY. If, as We trust is the case, we have seen
tie last of the disease. we have reason IL BE-
thankful to Providence that, rs Town, we have
been so highly favored. With the exception OF
Boston, we know of no place, where the Cho'e-
"a has existed at all, where il has been so slight
Is felt. And much to the credit OF our citizens.
there has been no alarm or panic--nothing like
gnmanly fear. Business has gone on as usual,
nor have we seen any alteration in the general
appearance OF things. The greatest number OF
cases reported on any one day was fee, and g.
neray there were only one or two. 4 northern

from the daily reports. and remarks, that the dis.

almost IN sight OF Us, leaving us in grateful won

We neither approve OF the style Or temper OF Mr..
GWerneur's letter, relative to what he acknow-
lodges he considers gross ISLANDERS against the re-
