Huntingdon Advertiser, West tennessee,
dated December 9th, states that most fa-

few days past, in our sister county, Hen
ry. about 10 miles west of Paris. II is
said to be contagious, but in its symptoms
unlike any ether disease known to the hui
man family; and in it's fatality far more
dreadful than The cholera. Several deaths
have occurred in few families. On Sat
urday night deaths occurred in one fani.
ly. Its victims live from one to 4 hours af-
ter being attacked. The citizens of Paris,
we learn, are greatly alarmed. Many talk
OF leaving the town. We have heard no
name by which TO call this mysterious and
awful visitation.

STATE Debf.-.-The amount Of interest fall
ling due on the State debt of Pennsylvania,
on the lst Of FEBRUARY next is stated to be
eS00,O0O. When we recollect that we are
the property Of corporations, we need net
be surprised at this. The only matter Of
astonishment is, that our debt is so small.
Almost every inch of the Stale is covered
by charter, of one kind or another, the
owners of which deserve sompensatisn for
their" patriotism" aud Of course must have
it. We are indebted to them for cur high
ways and bridges; for on, canals and rail-
roads: for our public buildings and general
currency" for the water we drink; the
bread we eat, and the lights by which we
see our way to bed, besides variety OF
other coH,iorts and Injuries, such as furnish
forth our table, sideboards, &c. &c. We
ought TO congratulate ourselves that our
"public spirited" masters; or agents, as we
call them about election time, let US off so
cheaply knowing that they nearly all have
"expensive families TO support on their
dividends" we should be grateful that
they are SO moderate in their demands.

be sure !---SpirH Of The Times.
