glance at the speech OF the locofoco candi-

"These," said Mr.. Lowe; while retail

however, that proper sense Of proprety
may govern us to-day and hereafter, when
we may have occasion to refer to him bu,

A special election was held here TO-
day to fill four vacancies in thu State
legislature. It has resulted IN the choice
OF three wings ard one democrat There
was but little excitement and manv of
the voters did not turn out on both sides.
The Texas excitement to day is verv
great, and absorbs much OF the general
conversation. An intense feeling exiss.
which leads to the apprehension of very
serious consequences. Public meetings
have been held at San Antonio and on the
battle field OF San Jacnto, at which reso-
lutIons were passed denouncing IN strong
terms The general government and calling
On the Governor to proclaim Santa Fs
in state OF open instruction.
An extra session of the Legislature has
been called in reference especially to the
difficulties now existing. II IS 10 con-

CHOLERA IN MExICo:- Grrat Mortality.
The cholera has been creating an awful
mortality IN the city of Mexico. The
Picayune says:
From the 18th Of Nav to the 18th OF
June, inclusive, the number of cases was
1886, and 2,702 deaths. On the last
day named-June 16th-there were 230
deaths, which was the highest number in
any one day. After this period the disease
continued to increase. OF the 1886 cases.
1856 were treated IN hospital. The Trait
d'Unlon says that during the American
invasion 400 persons died in a day Of
typhus fever and no one thought ANYTHING
of 1t. W. have never heard this statement
before, and are rather inclined to doubt
ITS authenticity.
In San Luis eighty deaths per day took
place from the epidemic; 900 persons had
died
In Morella and Zacatecas the disease
was declining.
Two horrible incidents which show the
danger OF premature lntermeni, took place
in the city OF Mexico. A woman was At
tackled by cholera, and apparently died.
She was inferred in the cem-trv Of Santa
Palma; but just at that moment She awoke
from her trance, and The earth being new
ly laid over her, she succeeded in scratch.
ing her way out, when she ran home as
fast as she could go. The other case was
that OF a woman who, being drunk, was
thought dead, and was consequently buried
In short time the drunkenness passed Of
and she managed to escape from her tomb,
but her singular appearance drew around
her perfect crowd OF leperos, by whom
she was chased home.
Later accounts say that 1000 cholera
deaths are occurring daily in Mexico, and
the P'cayune learns it Is raging in Vera

CHOLERA AT THE WEsr.-The Nash
vile papers Of the 9Th inst, state that on
the 7th there were 10 deaths from chol-
era, and 8 Of other diseases; and up to
noon on the 9Th there had been l8 burIals
from cholera, and 7 from other diseases.
AT Cincinnati the official report OF
June I gives 80 deaths from cholera,
and 4S from other diseases. During the
eight previous days there had been 696
deaths, Of which 258 were of cholera.
AT Shelbyvile OHIO, the cholera had
appeared, and up TO the 7th instant, about
SO deaths had been reported.

foco Convention Of Tuesday last nomina-
ted the following candidates for the Re-
form Convention, Louis McLane, Benia-
min B. Chambers, John M. Miller, Will

Esquires.
When Gov. Pratt and Mr.. McLane
had that controversy in which the latter
was so much worsted, Pratt designated
him as "a distinguished stranger without
feeling or interest in common with the
people OF Maryland"-most certainly h.
has no feeling or interest in common
with the people Of Cecil county-he IS
not of the county, and is not entitled to
the votes Of our citizens. We scarcely
think he will receive enough to elect HIM
AS to the rest Of the ticket We have moth
ing to say. Some OF them will certainly
be cut by members Of their own party.

BILE has talents, undoubtedly; and his hab-
''s OF industry, &c, &c, &C., may qualify
him tor the convention, but we are not

The Perryvi1Ie Post Office.

We published last week an article from
the Hon. Alexander Evans, in relation to
the Post office at Perryville In that ar
tlcle he referred to a letter received by
him from the Post Office Department in
relation to the subject in question. We
have this week received a copy of that
letter, which is given below.
PosT OFFICE DEPARTMENT, !
Contract Office, July Bird 1850.
SIR: Your letter OF ting 18th ult, has
been received. The plan OF bagging the
mails on the divergrng routes from Per-
ryvile so as to have one pouch for Per-
ryville alone, and the other put in an
other pouch is Objectionable in many
respects. have submitted the mate.
specially to the Postmaster General and
he instructs me to say so, and 20 add,
that il carried into execution, 1t must be
attended with confusion and delays and
increased liability TO loss OF mail matter
1t is asked 10 take the duty OF separating
and bagging the matter for the diverging
routes from the appropriate Agent, who
is the Postmaster at Perryvile and put it
on the Rail Road Agent, to whom the
duty does not naturally belong.
This transfer OF duty from the proper
Agent to others, must result necessarily
IN a wose performance of it. One of
the diverging routes is tri-weekly. What
is to be done with the packages for those
Offices which will pass up and down the
cars. on other days since resting place
is denied them at PerryviIIe The
mail Agents have as much as they can
attend to when confined to their proper
duties and the magnitude of these duties
sa cause OF constant complaint on their
part. Now TO require them to perform
the duties OF the Postmaster at Perryvllle
will not only cause this duty to be worse
performed thar It should be, but il will
prevent them from properly dlscharging
their own appropriate duties.
l have the honor to BE- very respectfully

LETTER FROM Mr.. FILLMORE. The
following letter from Mr.. Fillmore in
reply to an invitation to be present at a
Son of Temperance celebration Of the
Fourth OF July, at Buffalo, will be read
with interest,"
WASHINGTON, June 10, 1850.
Gentlemen: ! have received your kind
invitation TO attend "Unioh Celebra-
ton" in the city OF Buffalo, of the an
preaching anniversary of National indie
Pendence. Nothing could give me more
pleasure than to be permitted to mingle
with my fellow citizens on that Joyous
OCCASION. Judging from the favorable
reports which / have recently heerd of
the progress of the cause of Temperance
in Buffalo, infer that this "Unon C.le-
brallon" implies a union OF Patriotism
and Temperance-ofc cool heads and warm
hearts, and such union is greatly dpsi-
red at this time, to save the Union to
which we are all SO devotedly attached.
l DO not, however, anticipate that it will
be in my power to accept your Aat:ering
invitation, as my official duties will in
all Pronaoility require my presence here.
trust, however, that Notwithstanding
me present painful aspect of our political
affairs a and the jarring discord Of sectional
feeling, that the wisdom and concilia-
ton OF the present generation are equal
10 the preservation OF the glorious Con-
s''tutlon' unlmpalred, which they have re
ce'ved as the greatest blessing from their
ancestors and that this birthday of our
nation shall ever find US ';one and inseper-
able" Truly vours.
