Since the date Of mJ last nothing OF very gre,.
interest has occurred. The Cholera hes at lengts
disappeared from the City, after abo1t oae haodrei
days duration, having swept of from 700 20
$4,000 Of its inhabitants The gates Of the public
buryiDg grounds have been closed; one Of the The
aters has been re0pened by the Aonplaiser Troupe;
new faces are in the streets families are re-
turning from their temporary absence; the streets
and public pleasure grounds begin to assume a
more cheerful aspect, and we hope soon 10 see bu-
siness and pleasure revive.
From all accounts. the sfFairs OF the cosntrS are
In q sad condition, bat it is believed by many, aud
hoped by al, that better state Of things will take
place, on the change about TO occur 10 the Admin.
isustion- On the beneficial measures expected t.
be taken In consequence, depend, il toe opinion
Of all the future welfare Of this Republic. All feel
the necessity Of something impohs t being done to
arrest the general downward tendency existing
here, but they are divided 10 what those mea
sures shall be-and the result is, nothing u done.
Is az extraordinary fact, that, comparatively
speaking this country has never, az any o; the dis
ire ssing periods Of its history, produced with
capacity sufficient To provide Tor their exigsncie,.
We do not know the preo4se epoch when 1t is ne
cessAry for such great ninds 20 manifest them

You will perceive 1 write under the conviction
th., he viii DO elected-and such IL the general
opinion TIE MACS OF the people do not even shink
Of the election and the few that do view the event
with Indifference.
The opinion is somewhat prevalent that Revo-
hutton is ut hand, bat feel assured OF the contrary,
an the people know tina! nothing has been gained
nv then-not even by those who have spent saoa
sands cut OF their own pockets for such purposes.
Iissaid, hoxeysr, that an attempt at Hsvola-
ton vas made in shis City soms days ago, bat it is
denied yet il il certain that about half dozen
CoIonels, and as many Captains have been dis
matched to different parts Of the country; and
hooy Of SO soldiers has been divided and sent 10
different places. No doubt General Arissa viii
clear out OF this City all officers and troops that
nay DO, be iAvorabiy disposed toward himse and

Congress was at isst duly installed on the 9Th
