the ravages of the fever:
"The dry, BRIEF but fearful records of the daily nro
gress of the epidemic holds possession Of no
particular ward street. but has its sway over the
whole ctytels sufficiently their tale to our friends
abroad Of the trial undergoing The fever
knows no abatement Despite the large necessary dim
mutton in the number of persons open to its attacks the
fell destroyer counts up his victims without dmnuton
of numbers and is impossible to fix any turning point
for the calamity The many indications Of fall and cool
weather give us hope of speedy relief which cannot
come too soon.
Gone of the noticeable and melancholy features of the
mortality OF the has been the large number Of
deaths among infants and children. Parents poor and
RICH will long remember this summer with painful re-
miniscences.

MIR. Bull In Bad IIurnor.

The London Times is in bad humor about the Chi
nese treaty The fact is that the American Minister
has concluded treaty with China the terms of which
regarded highly favorable to this country, and
which stipuates that hereafter the United States SHALL
in all things stand the basis of the most favored ma
tions. This treaty is given to the world and Mr. Bull
and Mr.. Crapeau have not got theirs yet and don't
know what it is.
Another exhibition of John Bullism came off a
short time since in Dublin. They gave a municip-
al banquet in honor of the Atlantic Cable or of
body connected with the affair Among others the
Lord Mayor invited the Viceroy and other official
dignitaries He also invited Cardinal WSeman, who
happened to be On a visit to ireland. The Lord
Lieutenant wouldn't go because the Cardinal was
going, and the understrappers would not go be-
cause the Lord Lieutenant wouldn't go, and the
Mayor let them stay at home and they had
good time of it at the banquet Cardinal Wiseman
is eminent for his learning, abilities and piety
and the insult to him will, of course be felt by the
Catholic population of Ireland
Again, speaking of the Gable, the Times publishes
diatribe against the officers of the Niagara accusing
them OF dlscourtesy and inhosptaty An officer of the
GOgon, the which the Niagara
gives all this Hat contradicton-John Bull is quite
ugly now.
