 NEv- YORK, June 2i. THE CIiOLERA.-There is no fur iher intelligence lromCanadatllis morn- ing, and the Albany papers of lastcve- nine contain q number of letters and statements from the north, which ought ina great measure to allay the unneces- sary panic which il,s been at least pfc maturely created in this city. With the exception of the suspicious case at Mechanicsyillc, there is no evidence whatever, that the Asiatic cholera has had even q moments existence this side of the boundary.
 A letter from the trustees of the vrf- lage of fWhitehall, 10 the board of health of Albaay, states the case Of l4arned, so often mentioned, as one of doabt.- It will be recollected, that this man ar- rived sick in the steamboat Phmnix.- He belonged 10 Troy, and died of dis sipation. The trustees say there had been but one other case of doubtful type. The village was now entirely healthy; there were bntiew emi8rants at that place, who were all clean and healthy.
 \ letter from Samuel Bunnet, ma gistrate of Fort Miller, states ,'se sim pie facts i'll regard 10 the sickness and deaths at that place to have beenthese The water having been drawnoll on the 7lh, number.of emigrants were con seuaently detained at that place. h the course of three days three oi theli number sickcned and died of the com. mon cholera morbus of oer own coun. try. The number of emigrants thus detained was about eighty. They are clean, healthy, and respectable looking people, and there was no extraordinary sickness among them.

 THE ClIOLER A.-Important in -telligence was received last evening from Albany, of the progress of tho Asiatic pestilence over this continent The accounts will be found annexed.
 t appears that that this awful scourge i taking the direction of the western states. It has marched up both side Of the St. Lawrence, as far as Prescott on the Canada shore, and Ogoensbury on the United States, moving down it victims, unpitied and unknown. It ha already reached Sackett's Harbor, a the foot of Lake Ontario. A reasona blc expectation may now be indulgee that it's course will be westward wit the tide of emigration. The decide, and prompt measures taken by the au thorities of New Y ork, on the North .ern Canal and Lake Champlain, fur nsh great cause of graduation to thi part of the country.
 Itis known that the cholera originate, in d low, marslly eountry--it followe, the course of the rivers and great the roughfares. lttraversed all India i that way. Its progress in this countr bids fair to be analogous.
