George ". Reader.

Nothing that has happened during the course Of
the present epidemic has given us more pain than
the death of George w. Reeder. No one in the CITY
was more generally known For long time con-
nected with the Stage, and the Press, in each ca
pacity his ability was unquestioned and his excel
lent heart and amiabiity of character always
made him favorite with his associates. Among
the journals in this city with which he was con-
nected, we may mention our contemporary of the
Delta, and our own paper. In each, his sketches
which frequently appeared, were favorabIy re-
ceived by the public, and were extensively copied
throughout the Union. Possessed of real genius,
he was upright in his dealings with his feIlow-men,
and had heart over1owing with charity and be-
nevolence; but he has gone to an early grave,
struck down in the prime Of life by merciIess
disease. On Monday afternoon, he attended the
death-bed Ofhi brother, w. G. Reeder, who expired
of Cholera, and on the next morning was himself
cold in death, victim to the same DESTROYER. He
was native Of the western shore of Maryland, and
for the last eight ten years had been resident of
this city, At the time of his death he had attained
the age Of about twenty-six years.

AMERICAN BLOCKADE OF CANTON THREAT
ENED.-A letter from Canton, Of 9th September,
narrates disagreement between the Imperial Com
missioner at Canton, and Mr. Davis. the American
Envoy there. The circumstances ara as follows:
The new Governor of Canton, who affects a
supercilioHs bearing towards all foreigners. and
refused, some months ago. to grant an interview to
the Spanish Ambassador, has contriyed 70 get intO
an awkward squabbe with the Minister OF the
United States. For some time the Governor re-
fused to fix day for receiving Mr.. Davis, and
when he at last appointed one he did so while that
gentleman was absent in Macao. Mr.. Davis, as
soon as the information was conveyed to him, sent
word that he would wait on his Excellency at the
time appointed, and left Macao without delay, but
was retarded in his progress up the river by con-
trary winds, and reached Canon day too late.
He sent an explanation and expression of his regret
to the Governor, Seu, requesting that another day
might be fixed. To this application an answer was
returned of so insolent tenor, that MIR. Davis
deemed it inadmissible, and returned il with note
to the following effect: " shall wait few days
more for an apology, and if that is withheld, it
mains for me to decide whether at once to blockade
the river, or proceed to the northward to what
can do there. The Plymouth and Preble, (ships
of war now here, and the Ohio line of-battlaship;
the Dolphin, l0-gun brig; and the Princeton.
steamer, shortly expected, afford ample means to
enforce my demands. London Nel0s.

AMERIcAN THEATRE.-The Sable Melodists,
who for the last week have afforded great deal of
amusement to the visitors of this Theatre, take
their farewell and benefit this evening. They
are sure of bumper, being acknowledged the
very best of all the numerous bands of ingy voca-
lists who ever visited New Orleans. The bill they
offer is an attractive one. In addition to great
number of their own songs, " Othello' will be per-
formed with very powerful cast, which includes
MIR. and Mrs. C. S. Conner and Mr.. Jamison-this
being the first time that these talented artistes ap-
pear in the same piece. Besides dancing by Miss
Laforest and Mr. Thompson, there viii be the favo-
rite vaudeville of " The Loan of Lover" in
which Miss E. Petrie will warble a few of her
pretty ballads

Since the first appearance of the Cholera in the
city we have endeavored to impress upon the minds
of our citizens that there was no serious cause for
the alarm felt by the majority of them, and the
panic which had seized upon considerable num-
ber We have endeavored to make the public
acquainted with the true nature of the disease, by
publishing from time to time, the results of scien-
tfc inquiry and the best modes of treatment which
have been discovered The conclusion arrived at
from all that has been said upon the subject is that
whatever may be the cause of the Cholera, it mani
tests itself first, and some times for two or three
days, in the form Of an ordinary diahea, and that
if treated in this stage it readily yields to any of the
common and simple medicines usually EMPLOYED
for this ordinary of dsease-and the patient is
cured. This is the theory which medical inquiries
have established, and this theory is triumphantly
sustained by the facts which we constantly wit
ness Let any one look over the lists Of mortality
which we daily publish, and he will perceive the
names Of precisely the persons who would be likely
to pay no attention to the disease in its first stages
who would pursue their usual occupations in de-
spite of complaint looked upon as an ordinary re-
suit of some alteration in diet, or the consequence
of cold caught during the recent extraordinary
and changeable weather; they have neglected
themselves until the diaEhea assumed an alarm
ing form, and terminated in unmistakeable cholera
with its ricewaer discharges, its spasms coIdness
and death. Go to the Charity Hospital and con-
verse with the patients who are brought there
afflicted with the cholera, and we will venture to
say that in not one instance will you hear of sud-
den attack, or of the individual being struck down
without having had days of neglected disease which
was never attended to at all, or for which some
remedy has been taken that in its nature could only
accelerate the progress ofthe complaint. Let anv
one look around him among the few in easv and
comfortable circumstances, who could command
proper attention, and still have died, and upon in
quiry the same state of facts will be discovered
disregard of the symptoms of the disease, and
needless inattention to the use of proper remedies
We have for years past been convinced that the
yellow fever was really not more dangerous than a
common cold, if the patient were timely and
properly treated-and we have now come to the
conclusion, physicians and alarmists to the con-
trary notwithstanding, that the cholera is far less
dangerous than the yellow fever-and in both that
the worst symptom is the general fright which
attends their appearance.
Under this belief. we must reiterate what we
have said more than once before that the extraord
nary alarm shown among our citizens is without the
slightest foundation in the nature of things, and
that the sooner they return to their senses and bus
ness the better for all parties.

PiRACY.-The English brig Three Sisters, which
left Gibraltar October 80, with gunpowder. for
Malta, was becalmed off Cape Tres Foreas on the
coast OF Morocco, when she was attacked by six
plratlcal boats armed with Moors. The captain
and his crew, eight in number, escaped in their
boat, and were picked up by an English brig, and
carried to Gibraltar, Nov 7. The steamer Po-
lyphemus returned and recaptured the Three Sis
