MONEY DIGGERs-We are informed that for
some time past party of money diggers have been
exploring the east end Of ST. Josephs Island. They
have with them divining rod, formed in the true
magical manner, and said to be possessed of extra
ordinary magnetic powers. We believe that as yet
theyhave been unsuccessful, but about three weeks
ago. Capt Baker, of this place, and Col. VIM Var
nell. Of Saluria, accdently struck the true mine,
and brought from the bowels of the earth terrapn
SHE'LL curiously closed and fastened, containing IA
antique silver pieces bearing strong resemblance
10 the German thaler. As we have not seen any of
the money, we cannot describe the pieces, but we
will procure one and send it to the Pennsylvania
ANTIQUARIAN Society, among whose members we
trust some one may be found capable of deeiphering
the inscription thereon.
NJ Col Kinney arrived on Monday from San
Antonio He reports the roads as being in excellent
condition, and the ancient town of Bexar and the
inhabitants thereof as fourishing. The Colonel,
who has perfectly recovered from the injuries ne
lately received, was only two days going up, and
little over two coming down.

THE SABLE MELoDIsTs. We attended the
concert of this really delightful band of vocasts, On
Friday evening, and were pleased to observe, that
Notwithstanding the unpleasant state of the weather,
there quite large display of the fashion Of the
city present, among whom were many of the fairer
portion of creation. The concerts of this talented
troupe bid fair to become quite much the rage
those of the Ethiopian Serenaders, who four years
since completely took the town by storm. As a
band, they are certainly equal to any we have ever
heard their instrumental and vocal music is fault
less, and the experienced professor, or the man of
leisure in search of amusement, cannot pass more
delightful evening than by paying visitto Armory
Hall. Last night their concert was well attended,
and the harmony and melody of the performance
was truly delightful. Great good taste has been
displayed by the troupe in the selection Of their
nieees

The Cholera.

Our city has been thrown into a state of excite
ment during the past two days, by the arrival of
vessel from Havre with several cases Of the Cholera
on board and the occurrence of two or three cases
among our citizens. There is but little doubt that
the Cholera is in the city But there is need for
agitation and alarm. 1t is one thing to have cases
of the Cholera among US, and quite another thing
to have the disease general or epidemic. Besides,
even were the disease more prevalent than It IS or
is likely to be, no good could result from getting
frightened and running away. The Cholera is by
means the terrible disease which it was believed
TO be ten years ago. Investigation has made us ac-
quainted with its naure science has disarmed 1t OF
its dangers; and the rejecting and firm now regard
it as but little worse than a violent diarrh0a and
if taken in time, yielding generally to treatment
which would be effectual in the latter disease. 1t
has been noted that during the whole progress of
the Cholera westward for the last two years. it has
been of nature far more mild than at any of its
former visitations. In the crowded city of London,
the cases have been few as to excite but little
uneasiness after the alarm of one two days con-
sequent on its first appearance In New York,
which city it reached in the same manner that it
did hereby vessel from Havre, where the ChO-
era had not beehive have no intelligence that it
SAiutltl6u dt oby Ae1tO IL iNe
the character of epidemic, and there was no pro-
bablily That it would.
We have no disposition to lull our fellow citize ms
into dangerous feeling of security, but we must
caution them against increasing their liability to at
tack by unnecessary alarm and undue nervous ex-
element In order to attain aim, we think that
nothing more is requisite than to give them the
means of informing themselves upon the subject OF
this frightening disease. Like almost every other
cause of alarm, it will be found, when exposed to
the light not half so formidable as its dimly defined
outlines when viewed through the haze of fear and
prejudice, would lead us to suppose. A considera-
BILE portion of our paper is devoted to the Report Of
tile British General Board of Health, and to the
conclusions of scientific men who have inquired
into the subject on the continent Of Europe,-an
particularly in Russia, where its ravages In times
past have been most seriously felt. We ask for
these documents an attentive perusal, and we feel
convinced that many will acknowledge that they
have been more frightened than hurt. We VIII
venture to saw that even should the Cholera assume
an epidemic character, which we hope will not be
the case, proper regard to the means of preven-
tion which the reader will find fully detailed In the
documents here published, will eircumscribe the
extent of its attacks and the application of the rem
edies will make those attacks comparatively harm
less. We cannot better close these remarks than
by publishing the following communication from a
medical friend, whose sensible remarks and sound
advice are worthy Of attention:
