Summer Travel.

From various causes, the amount OF summer ua'0'
this year has borne hardly any proportion 10 that 81
last year. when all the hotels at the North were over
crowded and civility regarded by their proPrie'
tors as totally superfuous commodity Inc close
ness of the money market, the absence OF the yeio"
fever as an epidemic at the South together with re-
nor,s Of cholera in the Northern cities, may nave
something to do with this but We believe the inol-
cradle humbug and imposition practlced last year up
on travellers has had more effect than all other caus-
es combined Such prices as were charged al notes
-such lOrdIy airs as assumed by their keepers
-spch gingerbread and ill-managed atfalrs as were
most of the pulled shows and amusements as ior
instance, the Crystal palace and the hlpPodrome-
that for one season. least people hardly care oI
repeating the dose
A great many people are patriotic this year ana &c
to some of our own watering places; but the ht VII
wear off BY next year and if money be obtalnablt
there will be as strong tide setting North as ever
the ladies' can see the fashions, learn the last he"
step and kick, and purchase such love OF q
shawl'--as for the its no great difference wha
thew do After months of staid business life, they
no doubt like to run wild where no body knows them
and kick up fuss generally without the remarks

Asiafic Cholera.

This scourge, which, after originating somewhere
in that great nursery of thurman life, and also OF hu
man death and disease-the Aslatc commandments
its first appearance in Europe in 1872 and 3, and
not long alter was carried TO this side of the Allan
tic seems ever since at intervals more or less Short
to revive and, in so me measure, go the rounds At
present it appears to be raging with considerable Vlo-
ence in most of the larger cities of Europe and aboard
the fleets and among the armies OF the opposing
powers 1t also appears this year to be more than
usually fatal in the popuous cities and other
wise unhealthy localities in the the United States,
perhaps owing to the extraordinary heat this having
been so far the hottest season in great many years
In New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Newark, N
J., Buffalo, Chicago, and at other points along the
Lakes, and on the Mississippi river, the number OF
deaths has been very considerable; and at Richmond
Va, the mortality is unusually and aarmingly great,
AS general rule, however, the Southern Atlantic
States seem TO have escaped its raVages and, as the
season advances, it is hoped that they will continue
to be so exempt.

Pursuing Cupid under Difficulties!

The Stanton Vindicaor gives the following gra-
phic picture of connubal conquest by Cupid -
"A pair of determined lovers, of Augusta County,
left home few days ago to have their lives their
fortunes and their sacred honor, united in the "holy
bonds Poor in everything but love- and their papas
and mamas opposing their union they started for a
free State, and walked arm in arm from Stanton to
Winchester, a distance of nnety-sx miles. Here
they took the railroad car TO Harper's Ferry, dis
lance of twenty Two miles to the end of their love-
y" journey. When they landed at'ther destination
the doating groom after showing his arms up 10 his
elbows in his breeches pockets found he hadn't the
dimes 10 pay the piper" In this dilemma, like a
cool spring in parching desert there appeared some
generous phianlhropic rescue the loving twain
from that brink of woe on which they verging-
ponypurse' was got up, sufficient to $40 the deed
and strike bow of promise athwart the souls where
then rested cloud of despair. The knot was
tied, the parson paid, and the happy pair, with JOY
and gadness radating their countenances, commenced
afoot their return journey. Truly, this was marriage
for love "
To all which we respond with hearty ''Amen.'
and wish long life and much happiness TO the per
| severng couple.

YOU'VE PoETs.-The editor of the Home Journal
draws the following graphic picture of editorial suf
fering, from but little understood by the pub
lie. He says
g It is mainly by poems in manuscript that we are
afflicted The number we receive requesting pprusal,
recommendation to publishers, short prefaces of
to introduce them to the public or publica-
ton in the Home Journal with the money for the
same, beyond belief. 1t would take one mans
time simply TO answer EDITORS letters from young
poets and poetesses. Not that we should dislike
good new poetry, however. On the CONTRARY, we
say, whenever the subject comes up, that long
for some mew poetry Nth common sense in 1t. We
thirst for beautiful words that prove something, aim
at something, are secondary to somethinA Our no
ton to the raging defect of the day, splendid
b'Gge wuhoM thought, is well expressed in the Lon
don Leaders review of the new poet, Mr.. Brgg."
The following extract from the article i'll the Lon
don Leader expresses the feelings of most editors up
on the sub ject TO which it relates
"For own part says the Leader, we never see
volume with pleasant feelings. If we read it
we are weared if we review it we make an enemy;
if we leave it unread we jec to misconstruc-
lions. Poets willing TO believe that the demands
on our time are exorbilant, but not willing 10 believe
we have no leisure for calm and careful study of
their volumes.

Heavy Failure. Sc.

PHILADELPHIA, July 27-John Tucker, president
of the Reading railroad, is reported to have failed
His liabilities put down at million and half to
two millions of dollars.
Mr.. Tucker, besides his connexion with the Read
ing railroad, also largely interested in the Noun
tain Iron Works of Pennsylvania, whose notes were
also dishonored yesterday.
The Absecomh railroad stock is also regarded in a
precarous condition.
These Developments caused much excitement, and
the Reading railroad stock in consequence largely
declined today, every one looking upon it with
suspicion.
The foreign news has depressed flour. No change
in wheat. All stocks which were dull previous tc
the developments of to day have sensbly declined
The alarm in regard to the prevalence of cholera
at Cape May is fast subsiding

Horrible Rnvages of the Cholera at the Niagnri


BUFFALO, July 28.-I learn from the most reliable
pension Bridge, on the Canada side is far worse
than represented. Our informant visited the scene
Yesterday and found that almost everybody capable
of moving had deserted the vicinity leaving the dead
without burial. He discovered in one shantv a
woman so far gone as to be unable to move and the
dead body of her child, years DID, lying by her
side, in an advanced state of decomposition In
another house he found two men, one dead, and The
other dying without succOr. In another shany he
found three unburried bodies so much decayed that
he could not venture to disturb them and sci fire to
the shanty, and consumed the bodies | learn as a
reliable fact that several bodies only partially con-
sumed, were today being rooted up and devoured by
hogs.
Mr.. Fillmore and his sou leave here tomorrow for
I Cayuga county, both in very feeble health.

pIoyed another Boat TO carry their passengers across
the River How is it that passenger on your Road
has pay 20 cents tor crossing the River, when the
ferriage at Market Dock is only six cents? How is
it that ii u passenger crosses at the Market Dock
