large number q omnibuses reported BY the police
OF the Second Municipality on Wednesday for
furious driving and racing Tchouptoulas street,
number Of races came off on the same course yes
terday We found three OF Tie Rough and Ready
line and one Of the Old line entered on the police
books last night. The entrance fee, we believe,
varies from S25 to Sl0o, and since the police are
performing their duty in matter that has been
sorely complained Of by our citizens, it behooyes
those into whose hands the cases go to prosecute
them to Judgment as speedily as possible For these
omnbusest repeat their racing and furious driving

CHOLERA INcIDENTs-No plague ever created
more panic than the cholera its first visit to this
country and no city suffered less for the numbered
lis population, or was more alarmed than Pliladel-
phia. The Arch street prison in that city was
visited hg is epidemic, and the prisoners attacked
with the disease were taken to the temporary hos
pitfalls established in the public schools An old and
cunning burglar, OF Entertaining where they bes-
towed the infected, swallowed some tobacco, and
made himsefi into very plausible case of cholera.
He was instantly wrapped Up in Blanket, and
with archer afflicted convict placed in a carriage
and despatched 70 the hospital. On his arrival
there he descended from the vehicle but instead OF
entering the portal commenced rapid march up
street, followed by half a dozen idle boys, VINO
perfectly astOnished at seeing walking case
of cholera. The boys shouted that ne was run
min away from the hospital, and young man was
in the act of stopping him, when The convict coolly
remarked " If you stops me, young man. you gus
the cholera, sure, for I'm no mistake case
The young man Immediately gave MN d VIDE
berth and he succeeded in making his escape.
During the cholera, the Health office in Phila-
delpha was on Fifth near Walnut street, and every
daV at noon number of citizens collected there to
ascertain the daily amount of deaths. On certain
Sunday afternoon, when the epidemic was at its
height some five hundred persons had gathered in
the street. Ii was about noon, and between excite
ment about the disease, and anxiety about their
dinner, they were in highly active state. The
health officer no sooner appeared at the door with
a list, than a covered hand-bauOw, containing
cholera patient, and borne along by two negroes,
appeared at the corner above, coming down towards
the crowd. Not one of the five hundred waited to
hear the report, but taking to their heels fled as ii
pursued by an armed troop. A large fat man in the
crowd fell twice. in attempting to fee, and before
he could recover himself the second time the ne
groes were alongside of him. He drew large piece
of camphor from his pocket placed it at his nose,
and commenced praying, while the perspiration
rolled his forehead in stream, and, as the negroes
rounded corner out Of sight, he fairly tainted
through excess of fear.--St. Louis ReUeiiie.
