The Cholera.

We regret to learn from Cincinnati dates OF the

tent among the laboring classes on the Covington
and Lexington railroad, and that there were a
few cases in that city also.
A private letter, dated Cincinnati, the 18th
instant, stated that number of cases of Asiatic
cholera had occurred there, creating quite
panic, and that the theatres and other i'll
ventilated rooms were deserted. The papers of
that date made no mention of the subject
At last dates cholera was prevailing to an
alarming extent in Dubuque, Iowa, twenty per
sons having died in one day.

peaceable removal if this fail, we

place, in which his excellency states n
plan has been approved Of at Washing

dams
We are of the opinitn that force will
have to he used in their removal, at

Uncle Sam intends in earnest to force
them to leave. Once convinced of this
fact, We think they will come in and
suffer themselves to be carried to Ar

Quoting Scripture.


A deacon in the town Of =, was
remark able for the facility with which
he quoted scripture on all occasions
The divine word was ever at his
tongues end, and all the trivial as well
as important occurrences of life fur.
nished occasions Tor quoting the Ian
guage cf the Bible. What is better,
however. the exemplary man always
made his quotations the standard OF
action. One hot day he was engaged
in moving, with his hin ed man, who
was leading off, the deaco following
in his swath, coming his apt quota
tions, when the man suddenly sprang
from the swath just in time to escape
a wasps' nest.
"What is the matter?' hurrled'y in
quired the deacon.
"Wasps!" was the laconic reply.
Pooh said the deacon, "the
wicked fee when no man pursueth,
but the righteous are as bold as lion" !"
And taking the workman's swath, he
moved but g step, when a swarm Of
the brisk insects settled about his ears,
and he was forced to retreat with ma
ny painful sting and in great discom-
future.
Aha 7" shouted the other, with a
chuckle, 'the prudent man foreseeth
the evil and hideth himself, but the
simple pass on and are punished!"
The good deacon had found his
equal in making application of the sa-
cred writings, and thereafter was not
known to quote scripture in the now

GREAT DEFALCATION IN NEW YORK,


A case of false pretenses or swind-|
ling, involving very large amount of
noheY, has, for few days past en-
gagged the attention of the police of
New York city, and on Sunday two
men Of heretofore irreproachable char
acter, named Willet ~ Hawkins, and
Isaac ~ Vim, were arrested by the
police, on an affidavit Of Mr.. Cyrus
Scofield. 1t seems that these indi-
viduals have for some time past been
extensively engaged in the gold dust
business, at the corner of Broadway
and John st., and that to enable them
to carry on their business successfully
and extensively they have borrowed
large sums OF money from various Wall
street dealers and others on short Gre
dit. which in many cases have been
refunded, together with handsome
bonus for the loan, but on the 9TH inst.
they suddenly stopped payment, de-
claring that they had been robbed by
one Pliny White, an agent of their
concern, who had the whole of their
gold dust and funds in his possession.
Kumor states that on that day they
had borrowed upwards of 100000.
This statement Of theirs 10 their cred.
itors, many Of whom had borrowed
large amounts for the purpose of loan
ing them to Messfs. IVinn g. law
kins, in order TO obtain the handsome
premium offered by them for the use
OF the loans, had, as may be supposed,
considerable effect upon them, and
the greatest exertions were made by
the police to trace the fugitive White,
but without avail, though it was ascer-
tanned that he had been seen in the
city during the last week. The non-
arrest OF the alleged offender led the
creditors to believe that he had acted
in concert with Messrs. Winn & Haw-
kins, and that they had induced him
to iun off, that they, together with him,
might share the profits Of the opera
tion.
Intense excitement prevailed among
the victims of the fraudulent opera
tions, and many of them have been
compelled to suspend business in con-
sequence Of their utter inability TO
meet their notes. Hence their rnin.
if the rognes are not captured and
made to disgorgc their ill-gotten gains.
