conceived to save the work from the hands OF its enemies
found themselves under the unpleasant necessity OF yo-
ting against candidate whom in the beginning they would
gladly have elected had been in their power Having
once determined upon their course it obviously not to
be changed by this consideration. The result was that
Judge Mason elected over Col Bondurant by 4413
votes to 1856.

Mason his election any efforts of his own for he

after the adjournment of the meeting the 10th OF May;
but to his prominence citizen of State, to the high
estimation which he enjoys with of all parties, and
to the fairness and lberaty of which were believed
to characterize his mind His opinions with regard to the
policy of the James River and Kanawha Company were
not known nor was it supposed that he had ever given
particular attention the subject Confidence was iet
that if he undertook the office he would form his opinions
without bias and that whatever policy he might approve,
he would exercise an important influence in commenting
il to the favour of the Legislature and the State So far
as we are advised there every to believe that his
election will prove be very fortunate event for the
company The circumstances under which he called
to head may have excited surprise where they
understood; but proper explanation of the facts

MR.. BANCROFT.

letter from the London correspondent of the Nation
al Intellgencer has the following item:
very amusing correspondent OF the Liverpool Albion
who communicates every week couple OF columns Of what
he calls Metropolitan Gossip gives account this week
Of grand entertainment the house of the Turkish Am
bassador which he thus introduces the present Minister
from the United States
On acouch in the middle of the dvan, on the right
hand, seated the most remarkable and most re-
markabe looking present, after the Pacha himself
namely, Bancroft the American and Brunow, the Russian
Minister They conversed together with great seeming
cordially the chief part OF the sitting, and English too
the Baron, like all his travelled countrymen being great
lnguist, though, the-by, he is German born. He is
man OF noble stature and commanding port becoming his
stars and crosses we'll He bears excellent private cha
individual stamped more thoroughly with the impress OF
circle below the vas, general circle above than Mr.
Bancroft In his plain and rather quakerish black coat
rbandess and saress as he was without so much as
diamond shrstud he failed not to draw much more of
the attention of the obsevant spectator than any OF his gilt
terng fellow professionals around him. Apparently about
forty three four, TALL well formed, with somewhat
scholastic form of face he has all the polish OF the cour
tier without any forfeiture of the simplicity of the repub
lcan and there this to be said of him which can be said
scarcely of any Plantagene amongst us, he stands the
ordeal of white cravat. Any man who can put a Gala
NIFTY of that sort round his throat without looking like
tapster, country psrson is fit to
shake hands with my Lord Devon who not ony like
DIsrael looks upon the Nomans as UPSTAIRS but upon
Charemagne as a mushroom"
The writer's description Of the other members of the d
pomatic corps very graphic but in no case so comp
menary as this Of Mr. Bancroft.

Judge Mason's majority 1857 votes.

1t seems that nothing will avail to satisfy the
try people that Richmond is not a perfect city of
death. As evidence of the ridiculous character of
the rumors that find credence we see the following
statement in the Farmville Republican:
The most alarming reports have been circulated
throughout the country of the ravages of the cholera
Richmond. The city represented great chamel
house, fifteen and twenty persons dying day, and not
enough of the living exempt from the disease to bury the
dead. These and thousand other such absurd rumors
aoat and many creduous enough to believe them
We have confidence in the reports OF the city papers, and
although they may not hear OF all the cases. there can be
no DOUBT that they report most OF them
We can only repeat the assurances we have alrea-
dy given, that the weekly list of intermens at the
city grave yard furnishes perfectly reliable evidence
to the extent of the mortality produced by choe-
IA. We can also vouch for the reports of cases by
the Board of Health to this extent that the Board is
composed of citizens of entire responsibility, whose
honor is involved iii the accuracy of their state
ments and if they ever omit cases of cholera, it is
only for the reason that they do not know of their
occurrence. 1t must have been observed that,
ly every day, the Board mention such cases as &C.
Cured before their last report, but have come to
their knowledge since it was made. If there was
the slightest disposition to concealment, this prac
tice would not be followed. The fact is that ever
since the Legislature had their cholera row here
and flooded the country with horrible accounts of
the danger from which they were afraid of being
censured for flying, it has been the interest and the
most earnest desire of the citizens of Richmond to
have the exact truth to the prevalence of the cho
era in the city fully published. Their hope has
been that by SEEING from day, to day reliable state
ments of the progress of the epidemic, the people
of the country will be dsabused of the panic which
has seized their minds
As yet, however, the policy of making known
the real facts to have utterly failed of inspir
ing confidence. 1t is inconceivable to the panic
stricken at distance that the people of Richmond
going quietly with their ayocations, showing
no alarm about the cholera, and only such want of
cheerulness as the partial stoppage of all kinds of
business, by reason Of the cessation of the usual
intercourse with the country, has naturally produced
Every man feels that if he observes proper pru-
dence, and is prompt to check the cholera should it
chance to seize him, in the commencement, he
stands in no serious danger. In truth, we have
much reason to be thankful that our population has
suffered little from the epidemic in comparison
with most other cities which it has visited Here
the deaths from cholera, since its first appearance
have only amounted to ITS; in St Louis, they have
scarcely fallen short of 5000, and, in New Orleans,
according to private accounts much larger num-
