THE CHOLERA.

Latest Exropean advices say that there
can no longer be any doubtthat the Asiat-
it cholera has made its appearance and is
spreadingin England. Another fatal case
has occurred at Southampton. From
there it has spread to Sholing Common and
Bitterne, situate about four and two miles
from Southampton. The two cases at
Sholing Common have proved fatal; of
seven cases at Bitterne two have proved
fatal, while the other patients were improy-
ing. There is also marked dirrhea all
over the district of Bitterne. -.
InFranee, the disease is likewise on the
increase. A letter from Toulon states that
it has broken out with startling sudden
ness at Sollies-Pont, little town of 8, 900
inhabitants. In the course of the first
night in which it made its appearance,
there was sixty cases, and thirty-six hours
later there had already been 55 deaths out
of population reduced to 1000 souls by
panic-stricken people. In Toulon it has
a peculiarly viruIent character. 1thas al
so made its appearance at Paris, where, ac-
cording to the testimony of DR.. Vacher,
the condition of the stagnant water of the
basin causes a serious apprehension of its
rapid spread. go, ~ p. ,ase, ~

SOUTH AMERICAS TROUBLES.

The war in South America has COM
menced in real earnest. Correspondent
and newspaper files giving dates of the re-
cent battles at Yatac show the sanguine
character the struggle is likely to assume.
On the 18th of August the allied forces
6, 500 strong, under Gen. Flores and Pan
non, encountered $500 Paraguayans un-
der Maj. Quarter, on the right bank of the
Uraguary river. The Paraguayans were
unprovided with artillery and were out
numbered two to one. A summons was
sent them to surrender but they replied
by shooting the messenger. For one hour
and half the Paraguayans met the fierce
assaults of the allies with a desperate re-
ristance, neither asking or receiving quar-
ter. At the end of that time they broke
and fled 10 the river, pursued by 1000 cav
airy. Here slaughter took place, which
one of the victorious generals characterizes
as a regular butchery. Scarcely one of
the defeated army escaped. They left
l,4O0 dead on the field, and only 800
wounded, conclusive proof Of the fearful
nature of the struggle. Their leader,
Quarter, aud l, 200 of his troops fell into
the hands of the Brazilians, and all their
stores were captured. The allies stated
their loss at only $50 killed and wounded.
Another detachment of Paraguayans,
1000 strong, on the other side of the riv
er, was prevented by the Brazilian gun
boats from reinforcing Duartre, and at last
dates they were securely hemmed in at
Uraguayana by superior force.
As set off against these successes, an
engagement is reported between the Par
aguayan batteries and the Brazilian feet,
in which the latter was severely handled.
Following the example SO successfully
set during our war, the Paraguayans had
constructed batteries along the river, to
prevent the return of the feet. In run
ming past these batteries, the feet suffered
much damage. Further battles of an
equally important character were daily
expected.

COMET ENDANGERING THE EARTH.

Southey, in his "Common Place Book"
relates that in 17l2, Winston predicted
that the comet would appear on We'd
nesday, 14th October, at five minutes after
five in the morning, and that the world
would be destroyed by fire on the Friday
following. His reputation was high, and
the comet appeared. A lnnnbr of per-
sons got into boats and barges on the
Thames, thinking the water the safest
place. South Sea and India stock felL-
A captain of Dutch ship threw all his
powder into the river, that the ship might
not be endangered. At noon, after the
comet had appeared, tits said that more
than one hundred clergymen were ferried
over to Lambeth, to request that proper
prayers might be prepared, there being
none in the church service. People be-
ieved that the day of judgment was at
hand, and some acted on this belief, more
as if some temporary evil was to be expect
ed. On Thursday, more than 1000 kept
nistresses were publicly married. There
was prodigious run on the bank; Sir
Gilbert Heathcote, at the time head direc-
tor, issued orders to all the fire offices IN
London, requiring them to keep a good
lookout and have a particular eye upon
the Bank of England. ,,s.se ~

Reflector, written from Harpers Ferry by
J. 7. Troworidge, contains these interest
ing passages:
The first time 1 visited this scene of the
first bloodshed in the great civil war,
which, although so few dreamed of it, was
even then beginning-for John Browns
flaming deed was as a torch flung into the
ready-heaped combustibles of the rebellion

he told me the whole story of John Brown

''and hung him; and all the time the men
that done itwere plotting treason and muir
der by the wholesale. They did If in
hurry, because if they delayed, they

was turning in the old mans favor. He

the deed, we had TO admit that his motives.

Such sacrifice of himself set many to

their hearts that slavery was wrong and
that old John Brown was right"

The most of them are coming round to
right views of negro suffrage, too. That
is the only Justice for the blacks, and it is
the only safety for us. The idea Of allow
ing the loyal colored population TO be rep
resented by the whites, the most of whom
were traitors-of letting rebel just out of

Wills GAYLARD CLARK thus discourses OF
the month of October:
Solemn. yet beautifulto view, sff
Month Of my heart, thou dawnest here,
With sere and faded leaves to strew
The Summers melancholy bier:
The moaning of thy winds hear,
As the red sunset dies afar,
And bars of purple cloud appear,
0bscuring every western star.
Thou, solemn month"; Ihear thy voice,
IL tells my soul Of other days,
When but to live was to rejoice,
When earth was lovely 20 my gaze.
o, visions bright o, blessed hours;
Where are those living raptures now?
L ask my spirits wearied powers,
ask my pale and fevered brow.
Alas for Time, and Death, and Care,
What gloom about our way they fling,
Like clouds in Autum gusty air,
The burial pageant of the Spring.
The dreams that each succeeding year,
Seemed bathed in hues of living pride,
At last, like withered leaves appear,
And sleep in darkness, side by side.
