THE FIRES WEsr We learn from the
Cleveland Plain Deoier thn. the pine
swamp west Of Hudson has been burning
for several weeks and within few days
has done an immense amonnt of damage,
Whole meadows to the amount of several
hundred acres have burnt out four feet deep
and will of course, when the swamp fills
with water become lake. The ERE would
commence eating undcr till whole acres
we're undermined when vent would occur
through which the flames would rush out
for many feet in height. and the whole
ground, timber and all would be consumed.
Large trees would fall in mass and be
burned to ashes. President Pierce, of
Hudson College was in the vincinity when
he saw some trees apparently on solid
ground but short distance from him, COM
mence tumbling when he started to run.
They continued to fall behind him and so
near was be at one time TO the danger that
ths limbs of falling tree brushed him.
The inhabitants are in the utmost constsr-
nation not knowing where or when this ter
rible state of things will end. Like calam-
tiles never before visited this country and
unless we soon have rain the situation OF
many neighborhoods will be worse than il
they lived in the midst of earthquakes.
God grant rain may soon come.

DEATH OF AN EDITOR FROM FEAR OF
CuoLERA.-If the history of all the cholera
cases in this city were as well known to US
as that relating to the untmely death Of
this gentleman, our wonder would cease to
be, not that the deaths were so many, bat
that they were so few Mr.. Wilson was
one Of the editors Of the Reform Banner,
and was O native of Edinburgh. He was
one Of the new school Of chronological doc.
tore, but unlike all the rest who prove the
truth of the apothegm, that "a little learn
ing is dangerous thing" he did not at
tempt to show his wit or learning by ridcu-
ling verything that all other men held sa-
cred on the contrary, Mr. Wilson was pos
sessed Of deep religious feeling; he was al
so a strict son of temperance and an amia-
BILE man.
He had got It into his head that the
present Russian war and the pestilence
were the prelude to the millennium. He
thought that only the wicked would engage
in the war and kill one another, and when
there were none but the just left then the
reign of peace would commence. From
the FIRST that cholera appeared in this city,
poor Mr. Wilson seemed to be almost dis
tracted, and would never so abroad except
with bottle OF cholera mixture in his hand,
and parcel Of chloride OF lime in his pock
ct, and be regulated his diet and the econ
emy of bis family in strict conformity to the
rules laid down by the Board of Health,
but unfortunately his children, three beau
tiful boys could not be restrained when
they got out of sight, and they killed them
selves by ealing green fruit.
The writer of this, only few days ago,
took from them nearly half bushel Of green
plums which they had gathered in the waste
orchards in the vicinity Of where they lived
at the bottom of Bay street. The con-
sequence of all this was soon apparent; the
whole of them were taken i'll with severe
stomach complaint, and great doubts were
entertained of their surviving The poor
mother, one of the most amiable of women,
sat up with them day and night, until
Saturday night, when nature became quite
exhausted, and she too was taken i'll, and
died on Saturday about noon. She was a
woman Of q naturally weak constitution,
and WAS quite worn out.
Seeing the approaching dissolution of
his wife, poor Wilson became quite frantic
he rushed out of the house, leaving all
his sick children behind him, and went to a
lodging house up town. where he also died
next day from nothing else than downright
fear. The poor man was panic stricken,
and lift had not been for the attention Of a
friend from Toronto, the family might have
been left altogether to themselves; he, how
ever, has been unremitting in his attentions.
and there is prospect that two Of the chill
dren will survive, although one died on
Sunday evening. This is true history of
one Of the most distressing cases of cholera,
and if the facts Of all the others were as
we'll known, we have no doubt but the i'm.
mediate causes would Immediately be ap-
parent. Children poison themselves by
eating garbage, and the parents die for fear
or exhaustion by waiting on lhem.-Ham-
ilton Spectator.
