Letter from Texas Cholera among thu
Troops.

The following letter is from 1t. Trevitt, Of
the Cd infantry, to his brother, giving an account
o! the ravages Of the Cholera among the troops
in Texas.
CAMP ON THE SALADo, (Texas,) May i2, '49.
left our camp on the 2Sth of March-re-
mained at Lavacca one month, waiting for my
recruits. They came on the S0Ih OF April,
after passage Of so days, and two ship wrecks.
left on the first of May for our camp, 80 re-
crUts and train ot wagons; had dreadful rains
on the road-roads horrid--mules wild, and
drivers ignoreuI-e thing went against
me-
When within eighty miles Of San Antonio,
the cholera broke out among my men, twenty
miles from any house, and eighty from doc
tor. | sent an express to Gen. Worth, at San
Antonio, for medical aid. He offered $1,000
per day, but nobody could be prevailed on
to come. Lieut. Mason and my self commen-
ced practice, and were very successful. |
reached camp on the morning Of the 10th of
May, and am now in quarantine, one mile
from our old camp. The cases are decreas-
ing; have lost but one man to-day. About
DAYS ago, a tremendous flood occurred, aud
totally DESTROYED our beautiful camp. The wa
ter rose so rapidly, that the men and officers
barely escaped with there lives. Some took to
trees, and roasted all night.
Almost oil our public and private property is
washed away, and our expedition must neces-
sariIy be postponed for the present. The dam
age is estimated at $4,000. We had supplies
for two years. Many mules were lost. Expo
sure that night brought on the cholera, and our
best old soldiers are dying off rapidly. In
word, we are ruined, and every body worn out
with watching. San Antonio is dePoPulaIed.
Five or six hundread have died, and the rest
run away. General Worth is the only officer
who is dead.
Yours truly, J. TREVITT.

order that they may be upheld and suppoued.-
Alter making his explanation, which did not oc-
cupy more than two minutes, he was leaving
the stand. when Major Runyon, a lawyer OF
Richmond, ata considerable distance off, Piled
him with questions, and Clay, with the consent
Of ChenauI. who claimed the stump, endeayor-
ed to answer him.
Some misunderstanding occurred in relernce
TO the disposition made Of the school fund, in
which Runyon pronounced statement made
by Clay false.
Clay referred TO an act Of the Legislature in
proof Of his assertion, and finally told Runyon
who had interrupted him before, thai he was a
mere tool Of Turner aud was obeyng his mas.
Ter. Cay descended from the stand in perfect
good humor, and without expecting difficulty
with any one, when Maj. Turner remarked thai
"Runyon was not his tool" Clay replied that
whether Turner knew il or not, he was evident
ly his willing tool.
Upon this, Cyrus Turner, the son Of the can
diiale, stepped up to Clay, and pronounced biz
statement id lie, and struck him in tht
face. Clay was soon stabbed by some one be
hind him, beat over the head with a stick By
Alfred Turner and perhaps others, and revol

MIR. Clay and his TraduCerS.

The Anh.Slauery Standard copies what we
recently said under the head of"Mr. Clay be-
lied in Europe and commences response as
follows:
"Such is truly American philosophy of The
Tribune. Social evils growing out olclvll rela-
tons should be abolished Immediately in Europe
at any expense Of bIoodshed and conlusion--or
at least the attempt 10 abolish them be made,
though il be by no means certain that the des-
peralo experiment may not, aler all is done,
give net result orawIul sacrifice endured, and
not one good end gained But the hundred 'lold
greater at home, which can be done away with
in year, without the shedding of single drop
of human blood, aud without a moment Of the
horrors and anarchy that must inevitably follow
ia the train of civil war, may not be meodIed
with for half century, and then only by the
sacrifce in the meantime, Of a generation OF
the oppressed class, lest the oppressors be sub
ecled to some pecuniOry embarrassment. We
venture 10 doubt the proiessed love OF Liberty
which must cross the Atlantic to find vent for
its superabundunt zeal in the questionable
scheme of few hotheaded young Irishmen to
deIuge their country in blood but is full OF ad-
mration of plan which only proposes to free
Kentucky from the evils Of Slavery by shifting
them upon the shoulders ofhe Southern neigh.
bors, without granting the ooon Of Liberty TO
hundredlh part Of those who are the victims of
this worst form Of despotism, and that only al.
ter long series Of years"
If this were the first radical msrepresenta.
ton of our views, we could believe it innocent,
but having already pointedly repeed the self
same perversiuns of The Standard, wocannot re-
gard their second appearance so charitably.-
Our readers well know that we never maintain
ed or countenanced any such idea as that "the
wrong at home may mot be meddled with for
half a century," Even in introducing Mr..
CLAWS letter 10 our readers, we indicated our
hope thar the good loreshadowed in its principles
aud admissions would overbea: its conditions
and limitations. ltis not even true that we are
or have seemed to be "iull Of admiration Of a
plan which Mr.. Clay proposes. 1t is the spir.
il which dictated any movement at all on his
part looking TO Slave Emancipation that we hail
ed with delight and gratitude. We consider it
more sell.denying and more useful than Henry
Clay an extensive Stakeholder, living respected
and beloved in the most extensively and Ieraci-
ousIy Slaveholding County of Kentucky, should
simply say, "Slavery is wrong and injurious: lei
US consider how it may most easily and safely
be "got rid oil" than dozen men-equally
able aud eminent, if you please-vng in New
York or New England, should plant themselves

Give me piece Of your shing,e, John Plow-
handle, and let me whiIIle sticks with you
shon lime. Now good John, sit down on this
log beside me. You say you have a good farm
boys aud grls-a good wife, and pleasant
home; tell me, then, what you are working SO
hard fort
TOgsi a good living.
Well, your oxen, and YOUR horses, and hogs
get thar. But have no aim or object beyond
You certainly cannot be so sruped as to live for
the mere pleasure Of animal existence.
You oaHt to PrOuids something for your chill
drsH.
That is a little better. But, John, do you
give them a good education, now! are you CIV
ing them all the advantages which your means
will alIowl
Sand them 10 school winters.
All. John Just as expected. You care more
to cultivate your land than the minds of your
children. You cultivate your land we'll because
you desire good crops, and YOU know that will
bring them.
You feed your cattle well, so that they may
mature early. These are only temporary. Bu
the mnd-the immotalr mind-John, which, il
properly cultivated, brings forth fruit through al
eternty-which survives worlds, and is part
Of immortality-that you neglect for your LAND
for your hogs, your caule, and horses.
Why, nv dear fellow. that fine horse vol
rode to town yesterday, would send one of voul
boys to the Academy for a whole year; anC
|. how much good tha wouddo him. How mucl
better he would be prepared to discharge tn,
duties of citizen, when they devolve upoT
him.
You dent see the necessity of so much educa
tion for farmer. NeUer DsnttO any bette thai
a common school in your life.
John, you are an ass; adownrght dot. Why
man, the world is a great deal wiser than whel
you and | were boys.
Then the minister and the lawyer were tn
fountains of wisdom. They, with the doctor
knew it ALL We consulted them on all oc
casons. They married US, land made laws 70
US, and thought for US. But times have chan
, ged. The mass begin to think for themselvs.-
There is, therefore, greater necessity for
more general and thorough education every
J where. No farmer or mechanic, should hes
ilate for a moment, but should strain ever,
nerve to give all his children the very bes
education in his power. Sow the good SEED
bounIi'uIy, and in due time it will bring fourtl
an abundant harvest of honor to your offspring
in your old age.
But yOu haze such large family.
No matter. If you really try, there will be nc
trouble; for The boys, if you give them liberty
will get along with moderate assislance; anC
. the girls can get good, sound, practical ed
ucauon, with but small expense. But educate
them; and educate them to be farmers, and far.
mers, wives. Let them learn a trade if they
like, but don't think Of allowing them to &C
into the counting room, or profession. The
farmers is the only truly independent profession
or trade. Don't forget, John, but think and dc

CHOLERAlN CINCINNATI.

CINCINNATI, july 6, 81 PM.
From ST, Louis there is no definite intelli.
gsnce in relation TO cholera to-day.
Al Cincinnati, the interments up to noon OF
this day were ninety one from Cholera, and fifty
seven from other diseases. This shows a de-
cline in the number Of deaths from Cholera,
but an increase OF mortality from other eau
ses.
Itis generally believed that the Cholera has
now reached lis height. Every reasonable
esfort is being made TO subius the ravages Of
this formidable disease.
