WHEELING has its full share of bad
boys. and in no place can they be more
properly appreciated than at place OF
amusement. The hoOting, yelling, whist
ling and stamping in which they indulge
are exceedingly trying OH ones nerves,
and i'll many cases spoil the effect OF the
eutire performances. In addition 10 this,
there is always one or more Of them
ready to put in some slang remark just
at the wrong place, if there ever is a
right place for such language, In the
most affecting part of tragedy you will
be apt to hear from these graceless
xamps some exclamation so ridiculous
and vulgar as to spoil the effect complete

Of $4,000. The grounds spoken of would

Should the project be consumated, re-

In q few years we will have street cars

The investment would, beyond doubt, oe
a profitable one, and we know of nothing
that would add more to the beauty OF

the citizens than public resort where
shady bowers, flowers, shrubbery, etc,
can be enjoyed Let the park be estab'

NEGRO SUFFRAGE IN TESNEssEE,-The Nashville
correspondent of the Louisville Journal writing on
the 4th inst, says;
Notwithstanding the Governors declaration, that
"loyal negro is more eminently entitled TO vote
than disloyal white man. there is every reason
to believe tina. no pressure influence could induce
either party in the Legislature to advocate for the
present at least the extension to freedmen of the
right Of suffrage. The conservatives would, of
course, oppose such a measure on principle while
the radicals, who come mainly from East Tennessee,
fear that two much power and patronage would
thus fall into the hands Of Middle and West Ten
nessee To prove, however, that the radicals re-
gard this matter in somewhat selfish light i(as is,
in fact, the with Chase, Greeley & Co. let me
inform you that at the last session of the Legisla-
ture bill twin brother TO the Franchise Act)
was prepared, granting the right of suffrage to
negroes This bill was endorsed and recommended
by Gov. Brownlow, and forwarded TO President
John'on for his approval Instantly the reply
flashed from Washington, "stop il stop itl" and
il was stopped, and very quickly laid aside not
withstandng the fact that sufficient votes in both
Houses :were already secured TO place its passage
beyond shadow of doubt.

OFFICIAL REPORT OF THE RAvAGES OF
s. THE CHOLERA.

The State Department is in receipt Of number
of dispatches relative to the ravages Of the cholera.
Dispatches received from the United States Consul
at Bundisi, Italy, dated August 30th says that the
Asiatic cholera had made its appearance on the
Adriatic coastof the Italian peninsula AMI at the
time the dispatch was written, it seemed to be
spreading in all directions. Anconia was the FIRST
place to feel the fatal effects of this terrible seourge
and the deaths for a long time averaged about ono
hundred per day, but 1t has now seemed TO have
speLt its force there only some twenty new cases
being reported daily. 1t next broke out in San
Sewers, a place of some $4,000 inhabitants. The
deaths average about sixty per day, and the disease
Is still raging earfully. few Of the eholera
has been at Foggia, and some also in every place
between Bundisi and Bari. The consul at Bundsi
slys the disease seems now to be spreading gradu-
ally in all directions over Europe, and that it 10
quite likely to find its way to the United States;
but the autumnal winds may delay or impede ia
march across the Atlantic. Ha- r-T
The United States Consul at Constantinoplc,
writing to the department under date Of August
Both, reports that the ravages of cholera In that
place have almost entirely ceased II the steadily
increasing decline continues, it is confidently be-
lieved that the city will be free from the scourgo
within ten days. The official reports show the
number OF deaths from this disease, from noon Of
the 25th to noon of the 26th, TO have been ffty-
two from noon of the 26th TO noon of the 37th,
twenty-six andSfom noon Of the 9th TO noon OF
the 2sth, forty three. 90
A dispatch fton the same source, dated SepteuI.
Der 4h, says that the last official returns show the
number of deaths the preceding day to have been
but fifteen. II Is estimated by physicians and
Others that the number Of victims Of this seourge
in Constantinope and vicinity will be found to be
not less than fifty thousand. aaas.t 5af
The Consul at Barcelona, under date Of Septem-
ber 9th, reports the total number Of deaths at that
place, from the 3lst Of August to September 9th in
elusive, TO be two hundred and seventeen. al;
