CHOLERA AT DUBUoUE-The DUBUQUE d rv,,
Herald Of the 9Th nst speaking of the late raw
ages of cholera in that town, remarks:
This terrible disease made its appearance in
this city on the morning of Saturday last and
in the space of forty eight hours had numbered
some eighteen or twenty victims. This is
greater mortality than we have ever witnessed
in so short period of time, and of course has
produced an impression of sadness upon the
whole town. The disease has been confined
almost entirely to that portion of the town
bordering upon the river, and which has been
partially oveffiowed during the high water
We have not been able to get the names of all
who have died, but give such as we have learned
Mr.. Field, Ellen Fay, and three others. at Mrs.
Firms tavern, lower part of Main street one
or two at Wrights boarding house, names un-
known; r. II. Emerson, of the City Auction
Room Chas. Cheesman, and child at Kings;
Mrs. Hickson, Mr.. Kirby, and one, name not
known, at Ohio House Catherine Conneaut, at
ButterwQrth's; Francis Beal, at Steamboat Cof-
fee House; M'Ginnis and one or two others, at
Eagle Coffee House; Margaret Willis and John
son, colored persons.
We are pleased to announce that, up to the
present writing, - o'clock Monday, no new
cases have occurred for the last twenty.four
hours. We can but express the hope that The
terrible scourge which has so suddenly ap-
peared among us has as suddenly left US.
The city council have commenced the free
use of such preventive means as suggest them
selves, such MS the free use of lime in the lower
part of the town.

SOUTHERN PRESS
WASHINGTON CITY.
FRIDAY, JUNE is, 1851
rna WING convention.

This body made but little progress yesterday
and adjourned last evening in dseord. Inc
dispute is. whether the platform shall be adopted
in committee, by majority of States, or by
majority of electoral districts. We think tnlS
dispute is very trivial. For in the Convention
itself each State has its electoral vote, and hence
any platform reported by committee could be
amended. The truth is, however, that it is ex-
pedent to avoid discussion on such points as
divide the party. For a platform that would re
ceive the sanction of a majority of the States
would not suit majority of the electoral dis
trcts--would not suit either Ohio, Pennsylva'
MIA or New York, which are opposed to the
Compromise.
The indications are that the ScoTT men will
accept almost any sort OF PLATFORM 10 aVoia
rupture, and then nominate SCOTT.

Riot at Dunkirk.
BuFFALn. In

BUFFALO, June 5.
Last evening, about 1000 of the inhabitants
OF Dunkirk rose en- masse, and attacked the
house of Henry Tiles, foreman in the New York
and Erie railrocd machine shop, and having
captured him, burnt his house to the ground
Tiles having accused another man named Isaac
Smith, in the same establishment, of having
improper intercourse with his wife, with view
OF extortng money from him, ard on the false
oath of Tiles Wife, Smith was arrested tried
and acquitted.
Smith took il so much to heart that he COM
mitted suicide yesterday. Tiles wife then con-
fessed her perjury.
On the facts getting wind the inhabitants rose
as above. Tiles is in their custody, and serious
are spprehended,

THE Hon. CHARLES ]. JENKrNs.-The Au-
gusta Chronicle says: " The appointment of
Mr. jenkins az delegate TO the National Wing
convention, by the convention that met in Nil
edgevillt on Monday last, is calculated to place
him in an erroneous position before the country
In Justice to him, therefore, we deem it proper
to state that, while deeply solictous TO see Mr.
Fillmore presented as Il candidate for the Presi
dency upon the Compromise platform, he adj
heres to the decision of the Constitutional
Union party as expressed in convention, and has
consequently declined going to Baltimore as
delegate to the National Wing convention"

The FAITHFUL WIFE. What can be truer or
more beautiful than this tribute to women! II
is from the pen of Daniel Webster:
May it please your honors, there is nothing
upon this earth that can compare with the faith
full attachment of a wife no creature who for
the object of her love is so indomitabe, so per
severng, so ready to suffer end to die Under
the most depressing circumstances women's
bee, mes fearless courage, all her shrinking and
sinking passes away, and her spirit acquires the
firmuess of marble-adamantine firmness-. when
circumstances drive her to put forth ali her en-
ergies under the inspiration of her affections.

spirits. They say they will cheerfuly adopt
the platform of the Southern States including
the compromise, the fugitive slave law, and all
This being the case the platform will undoubt-
eddy be adopted SCOTS friends say they will
want but fifteen to secure his nomination on

adopted Scott will have a decided advantage

Sheep and Horses.

Mr. EDITOR
Your correspondent, in last weeks
paper, seems to have taken it for grant
ed that the two branches Of Stock in
which Addison County has taken lead
ing reputation for few years back, will
be sure, without word in season, to be
at the County Fair-I mean sheep and
horses. Let not the owners also take
this for granted. The fact that we have
a reputation to support must bring us
out The County Fair may be the best
test Of the fairness of what we claim.
At least it will be looked to as such,
and though nothing is said, an opinion
will nevertheless be formed especially
by strangers Let nothing be taken for
granted. If a man has fine sheep or
lambs to sell, for which he does not care
much for the premium, they may be
none the worse for showing. This
Fair ought to be annually an occasion
for sales, at least kind of stock ex-
change, where bargains could be made
for samples. and it would be well for the
Committee at Middlebury to provide
outside pens, perhaps an additional field,
for the purpose. At present, the thing
may be done under one design, till anoth-
er year, perhaps, may combine the two.
But what stranger should fail to see the
qualities and varieties of Addison Ooun-
ty sheep, and the just pride of their own
ers, at an Addison County Fair? The
horses exhibited may make a show to
many of greater interest. The number
variety and beauty, especially of colts,
will constitute feature of the Fair of
unfailing attraction. The more the at
tention is directed to one branch of cul-
ture, the more acute the judgment Of
the community becomes, the more lively
and general is its qualification in success.
Strangers cannot in any way be so highly
gratifed, as in witnessing degree of ex-
cellence of which they have seen no ex-
ample, and if, in this or any other branch
of stock, this qualification is afforded
them, they carry away the impression,
and our reputation has in each such OBJ
server new advocate.
If one does not want the premiums,
let him say so, if he pleases, but let us
see the animals, grown or growing, on
the symmetry and qualities of which the
character of our Fairs must depend, and
the character, to not little extent, of
the different varieties of stock Of the
County. AN OLD MEMBER.

30 The Hon. Henry Bradley, an
old and influential politician of the
Liberty Party school, and few years
since the candidate of that party for
the office of Governor of New York.
has come out in favor Of the election
of Gen. Scott as President. He does
not consider the wings to be RESPONSE
bic for their platform adopted at Bal
timore. lie thinks Gen. Scott would
give the country an able and republi.
can administration Of the government.
In the course of his letter he SAYS
" Do the whig party and its nominee
stand before the country as an anti
slavery party ? | answer it does not
stand as pro-slavery party. If Gen.
Pierce should be elected, both the
South and the North will regard it as
a slavery triumph, and the govern
ment will be administered, and its pat
ronagc dispensed accordingly. If
Gen. Scott should succeed, it will not
be an anti-slavery triumph, but it will
be, for the time being, defeat Of po-
litical slavery, and the government
will be administered and its patronage
nationally"

ANT-RsNr OUTRAGE New
York Herald says: From Albany we
have an account of another attempted
outrage by party of anti-rentcrs, which
resulted in the death of one of the gang.
and the wounding of one or two others.
1t appears that on Saturday night they
went, disguised as Indians, to the house
of Mr.. Shaw, whom they tarred and
fcathered few weeks ago, in addition to
burning his outbuildings, and upon his
refusing to come out they threatened to
set fire to his house. As means of self
defence, Mr.. Shaw discharged the con-
tents of a revolver among the party.
which had the effect of killing one Of
them, named Whitbeck, and making his
companions fly with all speed. 1t is sin
gular that, in one Of the oldest, most en-
llghtened, and by far the wealthiest
States in the Union, these anti.rent des-
peradoes should have been so long per-
mitted to commit deeds of violence with
with impunity, and that, while the law
slumbcrs, worthy citizens are compelled
to take the lives of these rioters in or
der to protect their persons and proper
ty from devastation.
