The Cholera.

The advance towards us Of this dread
ful pestilence gives interest to accounts OF
1t, and we give the following from Lon
don paper brought by the Cambria:
The accounts of the ravages of the
Cholera, received few days back threw
tbe capital into complete CONSERVATION.
Advices from the eastern part of Asia
Minor, of the 18th inst, state that the
Cholera had now positively advanced and
spread throughout all that province. The
mortality had been very severe, but those
who adopt the exaggerated ideas OF ITS
having amounted to 40 or $4,000, are GER
Stainly at a great distance from the mark.
The latest intelligence certainly mentions
the presence of that malady at Mossoul,
sOrfa, Darbekir, AIepPo, Damascus, &c.
From a letter of recent date from Tehe-
ran, it appears that from the lst TO the 9TH
nlt., the mortality was so great that there
was no time for the decent burial OF the
bead; hey were brought out OF the city
in loads, to be thrown into large pits toI
the purpose.
In Kermanshah the ovens and shops
were closed the butchers and bakers re
fused to supply the city with provisions
and most families were by this reduced t
state of famine that there were conside
rabIe apprehensiOns of a general revol
against the government. In other part
OF the country the population had fled
the mountains, often abandoning their ia
miles, goods and property; and happy
The family ind thateed has not lost one
its members. The statistics of the nun
Der of deuths i'll large cities OF Persl
from this disease, are as follows:
Teheran, $4,000 to $4,000; Kermal
shah. 5000; Ispahan, 1000; Reschl
1000; Hamadan, 300; Mehed, 2,OO'
Shiraz, 1850 A letter Of the 18th fro
Tabriz, mentions the breaking out of ii
cholera; 200 victims fell the first day
which we have any record.
THE CHOLERA IN THE EAsT.-Il
journal des Debats quotes letter fro
ConstantinopIe, from which it appears tn
the cholera had subsidized in the pachal
81 Bagdad, not however without maklr
numerous victims. According to lelte
of the 18th of October, no fewer thi
1000 persons had died of it in the eli
Bot of population reduced to $4,000
habltants by the emigration OF most
ne Europeans and great number of n

Mr.. Attorney General Clifford is fun
ny man. A short time since when the
Cabinet was in session, the President re-
celved official information of the advent
into this wicked world of ours, of a new
member of one of the royal families of
Europe. A document had been drawn
up in the customary form for the Presi-
dent to sign, congratulating the sovereign
interested upon the happy event. While
the other members of the Cabinet and the
President were laughing and joking about
the affair Mr.. Clifford was observed to be
walking up and down the room in pur-
turbed mood, with his hands thrust deep
into his breeches pockets. At length he
stalked boldly up to the President and
said, /" Mr.. Polk, it may be courtesy and
custom to do this thing; but were | Presi-
dent, I'll be ii if | would sign that do
cument!" After this, the new Attorney
General of the United States seemed, as
is reported, absolutely to " breathe freel
and deeper"

The Union, at Washington, has hit the
Inteligencer a blow under the fifth rib, by
quoting from its old files during the war,
in 1918. The Intelligencer then denoun-
ced the Federal Party which opposed the
war as guilty of "MoraI Treason" in al
ding and comforting the enemy in time OF
war by their whole moral influence
Now when the intelligencer places itself
on the same ground occupied by the Fed
cralists in 1918, and is itself denounced
as it then denounced them, terrible out
cry is raised about the liberty Of the Press,
as if it was not the prostitution of that We
ry liberty which enables Federal papers
in our midst to publish to the world thelI
advocacy of the cause of our enemies!
