D ed in town, on Wednesday last, which al
fords ground for unpleasant fears respect
} ing the ship Mandarin, Capt. Allens q
: this port. 1t mentions that q disturbanc
or mutiny had taken place on board tina
vessel, and that one of. the officers an
two ofthe. men were dead; but it is no
expressed wdh sufficient clearncss t
show whether the deaths were natural, o
the result Of violence. The names ofth'
4 deceased are, not given. No letters hav'
been received from Capt. Allen; and I
letter received by p. Dodge, Esq tn,
owner, from mercantile house in Bala
via, merely mentions that the Mandarin
was loaded at that port, for Antwerp.
lSalem Gazette.
Tire New YcrknSiandard gives the fol-
lowing version Of bntroversy between
two editors of that city. The encounte,
which enlived Wall street Yesterday, has
excited so much interest that we snppose
we must give come account Of il, and
have made the necessary inquiries. Mr..
Webb Of the Courier s. Enquirer, having
in his paper charged Mr.. Leggett of the
Evening Post with asserting wilful. false
hood, the latter demanded that it should
be retracted, and that being refused, sat-
isfaction of another kind was required,
which also was refused. Mr.. Leggett
then meeting him in the street, called him
a "coward and scoundreI," and spit in
his face; upon which MIR. Webb struck
two or three blows at him with stout
stick, and that being wrested away alter a
running fight across the street, some fsti-
cuffs were enterchanged, and then the
bystandcrs separated them. Neither was
much hurt, though each had blow or
two in the face, but the general opinion
seemed to be that Leggett was rapidly
getting the advantage when they were
separated. The latter had no weapon.

NEW YORK, April II.
The brig Ariel, Capt. Watson, arrived
this morning from Malanzas, having sail

previous, the number of deaths by Cholcr-
a in MatanZas, was about 90 day: In
Havana, the disease continued to rage
with great violence. During the last two
days Of which we have accounts, the mum
ber Of deaths was no less. than $50 j. G.
in the two days together. We lament to
state that among the victims is the Amer
ica Consol, VIM. SHALER, Esq. The
following latter with which we have been
favored, will be read with interest.
MAyANzAs, March 80, 1882.
"We are happy to say, that this epi-
demic, which has existed for Is days, has
been very limited in its ravages, and that
we arc unable to notice any progress in
its violence. Our city is so remarkably
well prepared for it, that we have little
Of its long duration. Still,
with the alarm predominant and the grad
lai desertion OF the inhabitants, we feel
It's effects very seriously in business.
In Havana we regret to say that il con-
inues unabated and its total number Of
victims is supposed to fall not short of
NINE THOUSAND. 1t now attacks whites
md blacks indiscriminately, and among
he former we are informed to-day is the
u. S. Consul, Mr.. Shaler.
We learn from the Salem Register, that
