CHOLERA ON STEAMBOAT. The Southern
(Catahoula) Advocate, of Thursday last, says that
the steamer Storm passed up beyond Harrsonburg
on Friday, the 23d, having lost five of her pas
sengers since leaving New Orleans. Several
passengers stopped at Harisonburg. There seemed
to be a panic on the boat, and four or five more
persons died the boat it passed further up the
river. One man, who got off at Harrisonburg
apparently in good health, died, few miles above
that place, on the following Sunday night. The
boat was reported in an unhealthy condition, from
having carried, on her way down, a lot of cattle.

WHEAT CRoP OF GEORGIA. - The Macon
(Ga) Journal and Messenger of the 2sth, shows
how well a virtuous and industrious people seem
likely to be rewarded:
The farmers are generally engaged in harvesting
the wheat crop. The extent Of ground planted is
not as great usual, but the quality of the grain
Is better, and the quantity per acre is greater than
for the last four years. This statement will hold
good in regard to nearly every county in middle
and upper Georgia, and Tennessee. Should the
season prove favorable for thrashing, we are inclined
to think that the quantity of wheat produced will
be quite sufficient for home consumption.
The same paper has this delightful, tempting
paragraph:
Tho Fruit Crop-From every section of the
State, we receive the most encouraging accounts
IN regard to the prospects Of the fruit growers.
The peach crop will be the largest produced in
the tate. The trees in many places are SO heavily
laden, that it will be necessary to shake of at least
half Of the crop, in order to prevent them from
being crushed beneath its weight. So, too, in

other class Of fruit except apples upon the culture

EDITED BY AN ASSOCIATION OF LITERARY MEN
Under this title will be published, during the
~ year 1850, twenty-iour Portraits and Biographi-
cal Sketches of American citizens W no have become
llusrious in the service OF the country Every por-
ton of the work win receive the most careful ate n
ton, and nothing VIII be spared TO render il wort hy
mad enduring monument to the great men of the Re
public.
Mr.. Brady has been many years engaged, at great
expense, collecting Portraits Tor National Gal
lery, and those which being engraved for this
work are believed to be superior TO any that have
ever been taken. In the Accomplishment. of this great
object he has experienced the utmost courtesy and
encouragement from distinguished men. Mr.. Bradys
reputation has been too long established TO need any
recomme ndaiion. His daguerreotypes are in the
highest sense the works OF art glowing with the soul
OF the living coun,enance
The dra wings and engrav wings OF D'Avignon have
been pronounced by Europeans OF taste TO be fully
equal and in respects superior to those of the
best artists OF London and Paris and every i'm
preston in this Gallery will be taken under his inn
mediate supervision. The Typography will be exc
cuted as carefully and in superb style the
cravings themselves. The entire work will be on
the finest imperial folio paper, 6 by % inches, made
expressly for this purpose.
This work has nothing sectional in its scope il
win therefore be comprehensive in its spirit. The
names OF those men only admitted whose talents
and public services have for them an honorable
fame throughout the nation. Each of the great de-
partrnents of life wrll have it's representatives Art
and literature universal in their spirit and the
Gallery is intended to be worthy and enduring mon
urnent to the great OF the Republic whose
achievements and fame constitute the chief glory of
the nation. We hope that every lover OF Art and
friend of glorious mon, will respond TO our ap-
peal for encouragement and aid in commcndable an
undertaking, that its publication may make in
he progress OF American Art, and by grouping the
illnsrious of the Union together, consolidate il
still more firmly
and the prices they sustain in Europe would place il
beyond the reach OF most of citizens the publish
ers have resolved TO merit large circulation by
charging very low price. They have, therefore

followed each other in quick succession, and Of which
the end is not yet," the leading periodicals of Great
Britain have become invested with degree of inter

ground batween the hasy, dsjoned, and necessarily
imperfect records of the newspapers, and the eabo-
rate and ponderous teatses TO be furnished by the his
