The Cholera.

Washington coTrespon dence New York World
Advices were received today at the
State Department, from the United States
consul at Malta, stating that the cholera
was prevailing there TO an alarming ex-
tent, and that communication with the
adjacent islands had been suspended. At
Odessa great apprehension was felt; and
the strictest regulations had been estab-
lished in consequence of the epidemic st
Conttsntinople. Quarantine is also Tigidly
enforced ct Odessa in consequence Of the
malignity of the epidemic st Constantine
pie. Malta is in constant communication
with England by lines of steamers, and it
is possible that the contsgion may spread
rapidly westward. Advices have also
been received from the United States con-
suls st Trieste and Messina in regard to the
steps thus far taken 10 prevent any further
progress of the cholera from Egypt or OH
or places on the Mediterranean In which
il has appeared. The4consuf ct Messina
had decreed that vessels coming from
Egypt should not be admitted TO that port.
Supplies, ifneoded, would be taken on the
roads several miles away. On the 29th of
June, however, the French mail steamer
Oopernic, from Alexandria, came into the
port before the suthorities had time TO
prevent her, and the people becoming in
furisted set fire to the health office. The
public health st Messina was good; but
many families had left the city in alarm.
At all the Mediterranean ports the great
est care is taken to avoid the introduction
of it, or to limit its rsvsges. At Trieste .
series of rigid regulations has been adopt
ed by the maritime government in the
hope of protecting the people Of that town
and of central Enrope.

Crops OAHADA.

NEW YORK, August IA.
The Commercial Advertiser says: A
Canadian gentleman furnishes US the fol-
lowing statement in regard TO the crops Of
Upper and Lower Canada:
The crops this year will prove TO be the
largest ever harvested in Canade, and the
weld will be of very fine quality. The
favorable spring and the fine harvest
westher have done wonders, and the gen.
ersl trade of the provinces have received
an impetus such as has not been expert
enced since 1866.
WHEAT-The crop of both spring and
winter wheat is unusually large in most Of
the districts.
PEAs-A large bresdth of land has
been sown, and the sample is very fine
with more than an average yield.
BARLEY.-OWing to the high prices
paid for barley the past three years, the
farmers hsve given their attention to
the cultivation of this grain, and have
sown q larger area than in any preVi-
Gus year, which has been harvested in fine
condition. In reference to the crop, it is
something wonderful, both as regards the
quantity and quality, as such yield per
scre has never been known, either in Up
per or Lower Canada; and it is estimated
by the best judges that it will exceed
1900 900 bushels.
RYE-The crop is good aud the sample
fine, with the average area sown.
OArs.-This is also 8 very fine crop
more than an sversge-while the grain If
of an excellent quality.
The Express says; The New Orleans
correspondent of the Tribune, who has
criticised General Canby's administration
rather sharply, reached this city under ar
rest to-day, and was put in charge of Gen
| eral Hooker.

The Richmond Wing of Saturday last,

Bed and reared TO perfect political liberty

In addition to these q vague yet deeper

To this list it says it will not add by say

TRIAL or SPEED.

PORTLAND, Me, August "A.
The Dictator arrived at 455. The race
from Portsmouth was q well contested 80
mile rdn.
The Agsmenticus made the distance in
five hours and ten minutes, at the rate of
nearly ten knots an hour. The Dictator
was a mile and q half behind her when
she arrived off Portland, and should have
an allowance of seventeen miles for stop
page of her machinery, on account of the
heating of her crank pin. At 2:45 the
Dictator bore down the bay for q sail 50
that the party might arrive at the expect
ed hour, o'clock. The Dictator is some.
what foul, and the Agamenticus is clean.
The vessels are evidently fairly matched
for speed. The officers of each claim
decided superiority in sailing for their re-
spective vessels.
Mayor Mcclellan, with the members of
the city government went down TO the
Dictator TO receive Admiral Farrsgut and
suite, some twenty. five in number. The
reception was quiet and informal. Re-
turning to the city, the party were con-
Veyed TO the Preble House in carriages.
After tea they will drive about to view the
city. Tomorrow morning the Admiral
proposes to return to Portsmouth 10 the
Agsmenticus at o'clock, in which event
no public reception Will be held.

Asmart Old Lady.

Mrs. Hayden, smart old lsdy of seven
ty-fve, in Braintree, Massachusetts, was
out berrying last Wednesday, when she
caught sight of a rattlesnake, with raised
head, about ready for spring. Seizing q
stick, she thrust it into his open mouth and
down his throat, thus holding him to the
ground; then drawing stone to her by
the aid of her foot she, with stick snc
stone, dispatched the Hvsrmint" by sever
ing the head from the body. Shouldering
the snake, she started for home, with pail
of berries in each hand, but confesses to
being q little startled when the hesdless
body was suddenly coiled around her
throat, and concluded to support her prizs
some other way. The snake measured
nearly five feet, and had ten rattles.

my whole soul has yesrned in sympathy
for q week, was daubed all over with paint,

crafty prurient taste TO be in she. ex-

the dinner table to-day saw no less than
six ladies disfgured by daub of blue
black paint on the lower eyelids. The
next fashion possibly may require ladies to
wear rings in their noses. Il is bad enough
to wear paste diamonds and pinchback
