Electricity and Cholera

Professor Olmstead, of Yale College,
has an article on this subject, inthe New
Haven Palladium, in which he denies but
there is any unusual and mysterious con-
nection between the condition of atmos-
pheric electricity and the prevailing cpl
demic. The facts which have usually
been alleged in proof of this connection,
he explains on the supposition that Ger.
tain causes which charge the electrical
state of the atmosphere, tend also to in.
crease or diminish the ravages of the Cho.
lera. The relations of the atmosphere Ia
electricity are controlled chiefly by the
combined agencies of heat and moisture
Thunder-storms occur most frequently
when the air is hot and damp. But the
state OF the atmosphere is unfavorable to
the action of the electric machine and
other apparatus for the artificial produc.
ton Of electricity. The hot and humid
air which generate thunder storms and
impairs the action Of electrical apparatus
is remarkable for promoting chemical
changes in animal and vegetable substan.
ces. In such state of the ar meat will
soon spoils. bread sours, butter grows
rancid, milk curdles, and sweet-meats
ferment. Here we perceive, the Profes.
sor argues, the same condition of the at.
mosphere which p'ecedes thunder-storms
and impairs electrical action, aggravates
malignant diseases, and if at any place
where the pestilence is prevailing. there
in an unusual absence Of thunder and
lightning, we may regard it as an obsta-
Gle to the progress Of the epidemic. A
copious supply of rain. however. has a
tendency TO lessen the ravages Of disease.
The Professor concludes that the dispo-
| sition to ascr.be tie production Of the
cholera to variations in the electrical state
of the atmosphere are not in accordance
with the cautious spirit Of induetive phil
oeophy.

ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION AND Ron.
BERY.-An attempt was made between
8 and 9 o'clock on Saturday night, to rob
and assassinate David Merri Weather, ESQ.
one of the pro-slavery candidates for the
Convention in jefferson Co He had
been in the city and was returning to his
residence ON horseback, about seven
miles below this on the river. When
within about half. mile of home, he was
accosted by man setting on stump,
lis that Mr.. Merriweather ?" and Mr..
M. answered in the affirmative. The
man said that he had been waiting at his
(Mr. Ms house some time, to give him
letter. Mr.. Merriweather told him to
come to his house as he could not read
the letter in the dark.
The man then said, that there was an
other man with him who had important
business to transact with Mr.. NJ, and
the latter invited both to his house,
His horse had got about three lengths
ahead, when he was fred at, the ball
passing very close to his breast, and strik.
ing his umbrella, which rested in his ia
cings. The discharge of the pistol frigh.
tened the horse, which threw Mr.. Mer-
riweatheh Not having any weapons
about him, with the exception of pock>

ground. One of the assassins, who had
been standing back, and who was not at

The assassin then came up to Mr..
Merriweather, straddled over him, took
a pocket book filed with papers out of
his coat, and was putting his hands in
Mr. Ms vest pockets, when the latter
took hold of him by the breast with one
hand, and with the other cut him across
the throat. The assassin halloed to his
friend for assistance, at the same time
rising and pulling Mr.. Merriweather up.
Mr.. NJ. then cut him in the left hip and
shoulder. Fearing his accomplish, he
disengaged himself from him, and ran
some distance through field. where he
sunk down from exhaustion. Here he
remained about ten minutes. when he
proceeded home. The assassins were

Has he Gomez

They tell an amusing story about Mr..
Greeley, Of the Tribune. He went to
Cincinnati last spring, to attend Tenn
perance Convention, and of course, the
good people there, wished to pay him
proper attention. A committee was ap.
pointed to receive him at the Railroad
Depot, and attend to their duty accord
ingly.
"Was Mr.. Greeley in the Train ?" was
asked Of the Conductor on his arrival.
Nc" was the reply, if he had been
on board, l should have known it.
"But, said the committee. we have a
dispatch from him stating that he would
certainly come by this Train"
"Weli," said the Conductor, ~ may
be mistaken, there's coarse looking fell
low out on the platform, who came down
with us; perhaps be can give you some
information.
The committee ran walked towards
the individual to whom he was directed,
as he expressed it, he was going
to talk to Kentucky drover, and in a ia.
mlliar, careless way. inquired,
" Did you come down in the cars, sir?"
II did sir" was the laconic reply.
"Do you know whether Horace Gree.
ley was among the passengers?"
"That is my name, sir.
The committee man was dumbfounded
He said afterwards, he felt like fool,
and he knew he behaved like one, and he
could hardly believe he had not been i'm.
posed upon, until they arrived at the hoe
tel.
