Clinedinst, in Woodstock, on Thursday evening
last Mrs. MARY sCL1NEDzNsT, relict OF Michael
Clinedinst, dec, aged 60 years. She had been
for many years consistent member of the Pres
byterian' Church ; and during the protracted and
painful illness through which she was called to
pass, for several weeks previous to her death,
she was resigned and submissive, and yielded
up her spirit with the blessed hope of being
made an heir with her Saviour to crown OF
never-fading glory in heaven.-Ienth Legion.
DIED, at his residence near Middlebrook, on
Monday night the 21st ult., of an affection Of
the brain, JOHN SpRouL, Esq, one of the most
independent and respectable farmers in our Coun-
ty He was man who conscientiously dis
charged all the civil, social, and religious duties
of life He was kind neighbor, indulgent hus-
band, father & master s. for many years an active
member of the Bethel Church. The deep sorrow
which was manifested by his neighbors, his
family, and domestics, vino surrounded his dying
bed strikingly showed the estimation in which
he was held by thoee who knew him best.
DIED, in this place, on Thursday morning

CHOLERA PREVENTIVE.

The following communication, found in the
New Orleans Commercial Times, is, we believe.
strictly true. And if the same particular atten-
ton is given to lining our streets, cutters. and
premises generally, which there was in 1892,
we think there is sound philosophy in the belief
that we may again escape the ravages of the
cholera:
Gin the summer of 1882, when the cholera
spread all over Middle Tennessee, its course
from Nashville (when it first made its appear
ance) was south. The authorities of Columbia,
town forty-two miles south Of Nashville, and
containing about two thousand inhabitants,
caused fresh lime to be placed at the door OF
every house, and the citizens We're requested
TO spread it freely OH their premises in the gut
tiers, and in all open lots where there was any
slagnant water. 1t soon reached Franklin, nine
teen miles south of Nashville, then Pulaski,
thirty miles south OF Columbia, where it was ter
rife thence to Shelbyville, east of Columbia
as miles, where it was worse than at any other
place in Tennessee two miles north of Column
bia in the country it was very bad-nearly half
the negroes and whites died on some plantations.
In fact, it was all over the surrounding country.
Not case originated in town. The system of
lining continued throughout the summer and
fall and it was found that the usual fall fevers
We're very light, so much so that the custom of
Inning has been strictly adhered to annually
ever since, and, from sickly town, it is now
one of the healthiest in Tennessee.

The Severn brings news from San Francisco
TO the 9th of April, confirming previous accounts
ofabundanoe Of gold.
Gambling and inebriety We're on the increase
Provisions at the placers We're still very high.
La some parts OF Mexico whole towns have
been deserted by men who have gone to the

At Valparaiso the same rush for the gold
mines continue; nearly all the merchants are
preparing to co there.
convention has been proposed to be held in
Monterey on the LIST inst, to form constitution

Commodore Jones has offered a pardon to all

der.
Gold is said to be more plenty at San Francis

waiting there were about setting out for the
mines.

ARRIVAL OF THE CALEDONIA.
SEVEN DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE.

The Caledonia sailed on the 18th instant
She brings 100000 sterling in specie.
i ENGLISH PARLIAMENT.-The bill for the mod
fficatioh of the Navigation Laws has been car
;ried in the House OF Lords by ma jorty of ten
in favor of the Ministry. This result has given
10 the whg ministry a new tenure of office.
GERMANY.-The quarrels between the mem
bers of the Parliament, throughout Germany,
and their respective princes, have reached the
highest pitch.
In Dresden a conflict has already taken place,
The people fought with the government troops
for seven hours. The loss of life was very great.
The railways were destroyed to prevent troops
from Berlin arriving in sufficient numbers to
overpower them.
The Prrlssian force however, came oppor-
tunely, causing q momentary tranquility Sc
cured by military force. The fight was renew
ed next day with cannonading until the night
of the 7th The battle was again renewed at
four O'Clock in the morning, and deadly war;
fare was going on in the streets at the latest ad-
vices.
Disturbances had also broken out at Leipsic,
Bresau, and Coblentz
The Austrian government is in danger of dis
solution by the continued success of the Hun
garians. They are in possession of the Grand
Raab and Ryraraw. The Hungarians accounts
represent the Hungarian excitement to be at the
highest pitch, and that it will take more than
Russia and Austria combined to quell them.
Endeavors are making to create revolution
in Gallicia. In fact from Posen to PERTH the
whole country is involved, Or on the brink Of
hostilities.
The London papers, of the 18th, state that a
Joint note of the Courts of Great Britain and
France has been addressed to the Cabinet of
St Petersburg, intmating their disapproyal OF
the intervention OF Russia in the contest between
Austria and Hungary and insisting that the said
interference be withdrawn.
FRANcE-The check which the French troops
had met with in the Papal States, moved all
France to its centre, and touched the people
upon their tepderest point-the glory of France !
IrALY.--In Italy the advance of the French
expedition towards Rome has been checked by
the resistance of the Republican forces, In two
encounters the French were driven back with
great loss. Captain Oudinot, relative Of Gen.
Oudinot, was made prisoner
Gen. Oudinot. unprepared for such a recep-
ton, withdrew his troops four leagues from the
CITY, and there awaits reiuforcements and instruc-
tons from his Government. In these engage
luents the French lost one hundred and eighty
killed and four hundred wounded.
DENMARK--The Danish war still continues,
but is conducted on both sides in feeble and
1angrishing manner On the 18th instant an en-
sagement took place, in which the Danes were
defeated The loss on either side is not known
THE MAaKETs-The heavy feeling which
PRESSED the corn trade still continued. Arner-
can -four was heavy, and 22s Sd. has been ac-
cepted for considerable parcels Of Western Canal.
There were sales of Baltimore at 23s., and of
prime Ohio at 23s. Cd

PREVENTION BETTER THAN CURE

PREVENTION BETTER THAN CURE
We notice that some of the neighbouring towns
are taking measures to prevent, as far as human
agency can prevent, the approach of the Chole-
ra Would it not be proper for the people of
Staunton to adopt some measures to clear the
town from filth? We are not secure from the
ravages of this fearful disease, and every pre-
caution should be used. Some of our citizens
have LINED their cellars--let all do so--and use
that article freely-t is great purifier, and al
most certain preventive of this fatal epidemic.
We have heard it suggested that the Common
Council might employ the funds of the Corpora
ton for this purpose-that body can act upon
the suggestion not-still, let the work OF cean-
ing go on. 1t is too late to begin after the dis
ease has made its appearance.
