THE HEALTH OF THE CITY.

|, is our duty TO stale that Two deaths occurred
from Cholera in this city yeslerday-one negro
h,ck driver who was seized al 6 A. M, and died
al 10 A. M.-and a young lady in Mr.. Free
mans family, who died yesterday afternoon
Though there may be Cholera tendency in The
atmosphere, we still believe that, with ordinary
prudence lie city is without cause OF alarm
From what we hear, we cannot believe that the
disease will be generally epidemic.
Yesterday, in the House, there was worse
panic than ever. Two motions 10 adjourn from
Richmond were lost by small VoIe-and, when
The House adjourned, motion was pending 10
adjourn sine die. We trust that, under no cir.
clmslances, will the latter proposition succeed.
The people expect The Code 10 be completed al
