SMALL and he has not big house rents to add on 10

that he had the pleasure, the other day, Of going
through one of those large grocery houses in the
lower end Of town. He says it is tremendous
big house--and from the size of the house it
must rent for big price, and of course that has
to be added on to the goods. Forbis pays no

Cholera.

This fearful scouree has again visited
Fayette. Since our last issue four deaths
have occurred in town, and several attacks
have been arrested. We feel much encour-
aged to-day. as no new cases have occurred
since Tuesday. Every sensible family in
town are acting prudently, and we trust we
shall have no inore new cases. We regret
TO say that there are few fool hardy persons
among us, induging in all the extravagan-
cies of depravity and ignorance.-- Banner,

We are gratifed to announce the Chole-
"a has entirely disappeared from Foyette.
With prudence, and a publication of infes-
ted districts, no farther fears need be enter

MAssACnusErrs-As SHE Was AND AS
SHE Is.--The Boston Dairy Courier, i'll IN
able article upon the political condition OF
Massachusetts, speaks thus sorrowruliy, yet
ruthfully, OF that once influential Wing
State:
Our State is disgracel and Inundated,
but we trust not irretrievably ruined
Massachusetts, the most cultivated, the best
educated, tie most public spirited, and, upon
many good reasons, the proudest State ill.,
the Union, has frittered away her strength
until she lies completely PROSTATE. There
has been 10 time before since the revolution
when she did not maintain leading part in
the national councils, and at least challenge
the respect Of her opponents, il she did not
sway the conduct Of public affairs. She
has now stripped herself of her titles to in
iluence, and must be content for time to
occupy the lowest place instead Of that where
! she haa been accus toned TO advise, to pei SUI
ade, and to direct. In the place of her
statesmen are only petty politicians In
stead Of her men Of learning and communal
ing eloquence and public experience, jeal-
Gus Of her honor and worthy of her conf
3ence, she is represented by charlatans,
and socialists, and ignoramuses-Ly self
seekers, instead of patriotic minds-by men
prone to mischief, rather than souls capable
Of conceiying, approaching, and unfolding
what makes 70. the general welfare. We
will not mention her great men--the liyina
and the dcad-her pride and the pride Of
the nation--who ocoW in al the door, and
were the legitimate guardians Of her flock;
for we should be ashamed to rccapiulate,
by way Of contrast, the names of their sue
cessors, who have jumped orer the to'd."

lieve he keeps the best and cheapest goods in

REEDER FOR PREsIDENT.-ln the present
aspect Of affairs we do not feel at liberty to
withhold the following letter. II contains a
suggestion worthy Of being pondered, at
least; but we beg leave to hint, there is one
difficulty which lies in the way of its adopt
ion: we do not know where Gov. Reeder
stands. Doubtless we will soon be enligh-
tened on that point:
Dean Sir:--"There is tide in the affairs
of men, which, taken at the flood leads on to
fortune" Now il this is true, is it not high
tide with Ex-Gov. Reeder of your State?
and as he is man of decided talent-an
able and accomplished lawyer-ofhigh per-
sonal character-of great purity of life-an
elder in the Presbyterian Church, and just
such man as our country needs in these
troubulous times at the helm of the ship of
State, why not bring him forward at once as
the next candidate for the Presidency and
nominate him at your Republican Convention
in pittsburg, on the 9Th of September? l
believe his nomination would take like fire
in dry prairie. II seems to me he is the
man TO lead the army OF Freedom to the
promised land Of Liberty and Right. Yours
truly From the Pittsburg Gazette.
KANsAs.-A Letter from Mr.. Marcus j.
Parrottis published intho Cleavland, (Ohio)
papers. After describing the Legislature
as "a riolous, drunken rabble," he gives
The following paragraphs.
This state Of things has fully aroused the
good men, and they are a large majority Of
the resident electors of the country-to a
view oftheir situation, and determination,
10 endure it no longer. Ontka 9Th of Sep
TENDER, NSConvention will assemle at Big
spring, when a platform and a candidate
(for Congress) will receive two-thirds Of
all the votes pollcd at next election. 1t is
TO be Il Convention of those in favor of a
Free State. Perhaps l shall be present il
not otherwise engaged, though up to this
time, have not participated in a public
meeting of any kind.
The country in which l have made my
home, grops upon my affections. Its rich
ness is unequalied in almost any aspect you
may choose, while at the same time, the sa-
lubrity OF its delicious climate will make n
more attractive as home, than any Terri
tory above or below.
