This fatal epidemic has made It's appearance
among the porcine species in this vicinity. We
hear of several persons, who have lost more or
ess of their fine tporkers. A great many have
anticipated the danger by slaughtering their hogs
early in the season. On account Of the preva-
lonce of. this maady, the hog crop in Ohio, is be-
coming almost as uncertain as the potato crop
The Cincinnati Commercial learns that in the
Miami Valley, where the cholera has been par
ticuarly fatal, great many persons are abandon
ing the hog business and turning their attention
TO raising horses, sheep and cattle, as being both
safer and more lucrative business.

One night as old sain, Peter slept
He left the door Of Heaven eiar,
when through little angel crept,
And came down with falling star.
One summer as the blessed beams
or morn approached, my blushing bride
Awakened from some pleasing dreams,
And found that angel by her side.
God grant but this-tas no more;
That when he leaves this world Of sin,
He'll wing his way to that blessed shore,
And find that door Of Heaven again.
ST. PETERS REPLY.
Full eighteen hundred years or more
I've kept my doors securely tied,
There is no "little angel" strayed,
Nor has been missing all the while.
did not sleep as you supposed,
Nor leave the door Of Heaven ojari
Nor has "litlo angel left,
And gone down with a falling star.
Go ask that "blushing bride" and SEQ
If she won't frankly own and say,
That when she found that angel babe,
She found il by the good old way.
God grant but his-I ask no more;
That should your number be enlarged,
That you will not do as before
and lay It to old Peters charge.

DECIDEDLY GooD-The New York Tribune, not
withsanding its Abolition rant and fanatic tcnden-
cies, often expresses very sensible ideas. From an
article in q recent number Of that paper extract
the following:
The latest specimen Of official fol-de-ro to which
we have been treated, is episte from Mr. Secre-
tary Cobb to some patriotic Ilceholder-pr0bably
Connecticut genteman-w had mOdcstly requested
permission to abandon the duties of his place, Tor the
purpose of stumping his State during the pending
canvass. Mr.. Cobb replies, with affecting proprety
and impressive soemnity that he really cannot permit
ANYTHING of the kind-that it will never do for public
servants go electioncering tours and that the
applicant must restrain his Democratic terVor and
attend to the business Of his post. This is all very
well but then, what pretty condition of affairs We
must he in, when it is safe for officer to make a
request intensely impuden, when it is thought
necessary to issue special bull from the Treasury
Department to the effect that those who receive the
nations money expected to do the nations work
Pray, why does not Mr.. Cobb publish another proca-
nation, to caution those under him against stealing
the Government gold

The TRIAL OF THE MuRDERERs OF THE MAssAcHu-
SETS STATE Prison OFFICERs-The trial of Magee,
the murderer Of Deputy Warden Walker has resulted
in the disagreement of the jury. Attorney General
Clifford read communication he had received, signed
by eleven of the jurors stating that the jury had stood
eleven for conviction to acquttal from the outset
and that Mr. John Fenno the foreman, who disagreed
did SO because he believed the prisoner committed the
homicide under insane delusion and further that
he believed no man could commit murder unless under
delusion. Another trial Of Magee will be held in the
Supreme Judicial Court at Boston,
At late hour the night of the 4th inst the jury

Scion H. Tenny. the Warden of the State prison rem

act on the ground of unwhoesome food and iltreat'
ment towards himself and felow-prsoners by the au-
thorities of the prison.

Liyingstons arrival from approaching the shore filled
him with amazcment. And when, at length, the
Frolic hove in sight, although the waves were still
running high they put off to her in boat. The Ma
koolo of course, accompanied his friend. But as the
boat rose and sank with each bow, he turned to Dr.
Livingston, and with look and tone indicative of no
ordinary excitement not unmiXed with alarm said

The RECENT INDIAN MURDERS IN IowA.-A letter
from responsible source, received in Pttsburg few
days ago, dated Fort Dodge, Iowa, March %, says
that settlement of twenty families ut the head waters
of the Des Mones river had been attacked by Indians,
and that it was supposed that all were murdered.
Only two houses visited by the persons bringing
the news in which fourteen dead bodies were found.
Some had been shot and others inhumanly dubbed to
death. 1t is presumed that the whole number Of per-
sons composing the settlement were killed, or that
they are now in captivity meeting of citizens was
called on the I'D ult., and company of fifty to one
hundred men had organized to march to take ven
geance on the Indians and rescne any persons that
might be found with them.

New ORLEANS ELECTIoS.-We are pleased to hear
that the elections which occurred in New Orleans on
Monday, passed off peacefully This is as it should

ton and admirable preparation Of the gallant Ameri,
cans Of the Crescent City to resist at all hazard all
foreign domestic, legislative and executive INVASION
of their constitutional rights. The mnons of the
Star Chamber-inq de cacha legisls
ton of the Democracy, dared not attempt to impose
upon free born American citizens yoke more odIous
and terrible than either Englishmen, Spaniards or
Frenchmen could endure. The American party Of
New Orleans, whilst fully prepared to repel agSres-
sion from whatever quartz. it came, and to Wind cate
their guaranteed rights, acted throughout strictly on
the defensive. Impartial men of all parties have
witnessed with pleasure the benign influence OF
American rule in that long oppressed city, and re-
ioice in the blessing it has conerred-in the promo
ton of law and order. in the protection Of life and
property aud the cNaltation of the and fame OF
the city. 1t is justly of sincere congratulation

in the choice of Winner, the Black Republican candi-

We had no idea there were so many white men al

The figures are not yet sufficiently complete to
