AN OLD MODE OF SwNDLlNo REVIVED
Some Of the countless sharpers in the City have very
lately been resorting 10 the old trick OF calling on the
wives OF citizens usually physicians. when their hus'
bands arc absent pretending to owe them bills; offering
spurious bank checks greater IN amount than tho as
sumed Indebtedness receiving the balance In money
and then disappearing Men Of course cannot be very
easily deceived in this way. but the feminine members
Of households are very liable to be made dnpes by this
rather plausible mode Of swndling We hope the few
words have said the subject will put the unwary
on their guard.

Freeman, A queer set of creatures are
these Vermont Legislators, as described
in their official journal:
"Great rats, small rats, lean rats brawny rats,
Brown rats black rats, gray rats tawny rats,
Grave old podders gay young friskers"
A very sage and reverend body Of old
rats truly, and all their acts ought to be
ratified. A dog law is urged to prevent
hydrophobia, which prevails to an
alarming extent in Montpelier during
the winter season, and as the mania Pot''
was cured in Maine by the passage of
the liquor law, it is thought the hydro
phobia may finally be legislated out of
Vermont. Mr.. Brown, mot Brown of
ours, but Brown Of Vernon verdant
legislator, has introduced bill for the
protection of dogs and other domestic
animals. 1t isan important question for
reverend Lawmakers to occupy their
time with, and we are glad to know that
amid the mighty throes and political
that shake the country"
Vermont can calmly contemplate dog
law. Go it, old Montpelier! Are there
any more Fenians in your neighbor-
hood?

PR0cToR's FAREWELL BENEFIT.

Mr.. Joseph Proctor, the very able and
pleasing tragedian who has been cater
ing for our enjoyment at Glenn's during
the past two weeks, will take his fare
well benefit tonight, and we call upon
our young men to crowd the house and
give him a bumper. He is Almost worthy
gentleman, and deserves such mark of
our appreciation of his efforts the more
so, as good houses have been the excep-
ton. since his advent among us. To
night he appears in a new play, entitled
"Gio, the Armorer of Tyre" in which
he personates three characters, and will
be supported in the cast by Mr.. Marston,
Mr.. Ferris, Mrs. Meek, Mrs. Marston
and Mr.. Rosene. The afterpiece of "Old
DELPHI, or Family Jars" amusing enough
to make the Vermont Legislature laugh,
will be played with Marston, Rosenea and
Mrs. Marston in the leading characters.
We should like to see Mr.. Proctor have
house equal to that which compll-
mented Mr.. Glenn a few evenings since,
as we are DESTROYS that he should leave
us with good impression of Norfolkian
liherality, and give good report of our
city abroad. We must use the actors
well they are the "brief and abstract
chronicles of the times, and it were
better to have bad epitaph when dead
than their ill-report while living "-or
something to that effect.

THE PARTY MAN IN TEARS.

The following lamentation " is from
the New York Tribune of Wednesday !:
"The ed of July, 1861, was the dark
est day that ever gloomed on the cham
pions of Human Liberty and American
Nationality. In the morning the loyal
States were electrified by the news that
our grand army at Centreville had won,
the day before, a brilliant victory over
the rebels by noon, they We're over
whelmed by the far truer, but hideous,
tidings of most unlooked-for reverse and
overwhelming disaster. Our army was
not merely defeated, but routed, with q
loss of all its material and half its num-
bers, and its wretched remnants were
rushing, report said, like frightened
sheep, across the Potomac, wretched
mob--a demoralized, weaponless rabble,
which a regiment of cavalry might at
any moment scatter like chaf from the
threshing-fOor. Washington, with its
parks of cannon, its richly stored navy
yard, its wealth of small arms, NUM-
tions and prOvisions-to say nothing of
its public edifices and archives-was ut
terly at the mercy of the triumphant
rebels, whose scarcely resisted possession
of it would probably be announced by
proclamation from jeff. Davis within
the next twenty-four hours"
The above is historically correct, and
it Is told in touching and very pathetic
manner. Mr.. Greeley has no passage in
his work on the war half so fine. And
what is it all about--to what is it the pre-
lude? 1t is the prelude to the an
nouncement that Mr.. John Cochrane is
going to cote for General Slocuno!! It
is pretty good wall, considering-is it
not? The party man is good deal of a
crocodile. He must be, to be of any &C.
count. We do not suppose the Tribune
could say anything SO mournful were it
approaching the "sad duty" of an
nouncing the death of the EDITORS better

THE CHOLERA IN BROOKLYN.

It is stated that the Asiatic cholera
has made it's appearance in Brooklyn.
The New York Ne,Os, commenting upon
this fact, says, truly, it is wise not to be
over hasty in accepting this report as
positively indicating tbe presence of the
terrible pestilence among us; but it
is also wise to take warning, and, in
view of the possibility of SO immediate
a danger, to insist upon the introduction
of the most thorough sanitary measures.
If the cholera is in New York, Norfolk
cannot hope to escape its fearful vista
ton. After the devastation, the havoc,
the sorrow of the civil war that has
wasted our country, it would be dread
full to meet at the threshold of peace an
other scourge even more destructive and
pitiless, to afflict us with another period
OF horrors. Let no pains be spared to
provide against such calamity by the
most complete and rigid sanitary regu-
lations, that If the hideous visitor must
come, its stay may be brief and its VIC
Tins few. Over and over again we have
appealed to the city government of Nor
folk to do something toward averting
the danger at hand. The Mayor spends
his time in the adjudication of drunk
ards squabbles, and he has no leisure for |
trides; the city councils have made
contract with some one to clean the city, |
and they have nothing further, they
think, to do; and thus we are abandoned. |
VIII not the people-the merchants as
the matter in hand?

HENRY S. FOOTE.

New YORK, Oct. 26.-To-day, in the
United States Court, before Judge Mel
son, the Hon. Daniel S. Dickinson, Dis
trict Attorney, moved that the Hon.
Henry s. Foote, member of the late
Confederate Congress, be admitted as
counsellor in the Supreme Court. The
motion was granted, and Foote took the
oath to support the constitution of the
United States and the State of New
York; but after listening attentively to
the oath of allegiance, declared that his
connection with the late Confederacy
rendered it impossible to subscribe to
the oath, and consequently left the Court
unsWorn.

FREEMAN CLARKE AND GOV. PEIRPo1Nr.

Freeman Clarks, of the Treasury De.
partment, has replied to the card OF
Governor Peirpoint in yesterdays
Tribune, and substantially endorses the
Herald's first version of the affair. Mr..
Clarke says that while the precise Ian
guage reported may not have been used
on the occasion alluded to, he is conf
dent the general tone of the converse
ton was even more offensive and UNI
justifiable than that which the Governor
is charged with, and that he did not
order him to leave his office uncere-
moniously. Mr.. Clarke's statement is
verified by the affidavit of an eyewit-
ness, and both will soon appear in print.
~. Y. Herald, Oct. 26. ......
Governor Peirpoint, of Virginia, is
out in card, denying the published re-
port of the unpleasant interview which
it was alleged took place between him
and Mr.. Freeman Clarke of the Trsa-
sury. He says: ...
lid not order Peirpont of Virginia, to leave
his office I'd. Governor Perpoint did not say: "Wo
people tho South never will submit to being taxed to
pay the Union debt Wewili never stand 1t, sir"
Both statements grossly false, and Freeman Clarke
knew them to BIO false when he procured them to be pub
ishsd r. H. PfRPoINr
This is all negative. Why did not
Governor Peirpoint tell the public what
be did say on the occasions? In that
way he might have made point in his
favor, or, at least, relieved himself Of
the odium which Is certain to attach to
any man making the statement attri-
buted to him. AS it is, he must know
that, in the absence of further proof,
Mr.. Clarke's word is as good as his IN
this instance Wash. Chronicle, Oct. rs.

THE CHOLERA REPORTED IN BROOK
LYN.-The cholera is declared positive
ly to have appeared in this city already.
A skillful physician has, we are assured,
pronounced the sickness of police SER
geant John Stilwell, of the 47th pre-
cinct, to have been 'unnaistdkedble chol-
era." Alarm being, however, danger
GUS to the workings of that calmness Of
preparation which we seek to set going,
we are unwilling to accept this appa-
rently we'll founded declaration and pre-
fer, therefore, to call on the Board of
Health for action on the ground of the
positive adudnce of the cholera toWards
the point of its flight to this country
England. But, as coming events very
often cast their shadows before them,
We are free to confess that this state
ment that the case of Sergeant Stilwell
was cholera, falls upon us with an air
of the oninous. --BrOoklyn Eagle of

he will not place the names of the South
