Fear restrained KING BoMRA's wrath
From an act of savage scath,
Nothing stands in GILLMoRE's path;
He hurls Greek Fire on Charleston.
GENERAL GILMORE found it hard
20 come over BEAUREGARD.
So he played Yankee card,
And poured Greek Fire on Charleston.
Asked to let the townsfolk go,
GILLMoRE bravely answered "No!

To pitch Greek Fire on Charleston.
Gallant GILLMoRE, warrior stern,
Babes and women thus to burn
What a deathless name he'll earn,
That threw Greek Fire on Charleston!
MANA SAHIB, rest unsung,

Advance of the Cholera.
GREAT MORTALITY IN ITALY.

WAsHINsToN, Sept. 6.-The State depart
ment, to-day, is in receipt of the address of the
United States Consul stationed at Palermo,
dated at August 4. He speaks of the serious
spread of the cholera at Ancona, Italy, where
some 800 people have died, and isolated cases
have happened in other towns of Italy. France
and Spain. The local authorities have author.
lied days of quarantine for arrivals from
French and Spanish ports, including Gibraltar.
The United States Consul stationed at Port
Mahon, informs the State Department this
morning, under date of August IA, Of the ar
rival at that quarantine of Turkish steamer,
which left Alexandria with 1 800 pilgrims. The
steamer, he says. comes with 1,2O8, and re-
ports having left on the way 500, 20 deaths
having occurred from cholera on the passage.
On an examination of the steamer, dead bodies
were found on board in sad state of decompo-
sition. The captains statements are discredit.
ed, for many have died by the same disease.
The Consul states that accounts received at
that station concnr in the opinion that the
cholera is making its way westward. Thus far
the cholera has followed the pilgrims, who, he
states, are packed like Sardines on shipboard.
Their religion does not allo them, while pass
ing to and from Mecca. to sleep on bed, to
wash, or eat any warm food. They are cov-
cred with filth and vermiu and are spreading
disease all over the Mediterranean.

THE DUEL ON THE Dixie.
From the New York Citizen.

From the New York Citizen.
1t was a fair day on the river Ohio
The grand saloons of the steamer Kishico-
auilas were crowded with passengers. The
ladies in the after portion lounged upon
luxurious divans, slipping cooling beverages
or sleeping over recent literature, and in
and out among them played dark-eyed
child, who now and then cried petulantly
for his papa. The latter sat in the dim,
close forward cabin, at one of the many
card-tables. He was pale and agitated,
for he was losing heavily. Little by little
Fortune had beckoned him on, and now
that she was receding he gambled reck-
lessly: but the cool, clever gentleman,
with curling hair, sitting opposite, swept off
the eagles without smile. The loser was
wild at each misfortune he doubled his
stakes, the winner always closing with him,
though carelessly; and it was not hard to
read in the formers darkening face that he
counted his losses seriously. It was game
of poker, and there were many partici-
pants: but these two divided all attention.
Five cards were dealt to each, and the
players wagered upon the relative values OF
the suits of sequences. If the troubled
man held four tens, the other was certain
to hold four knaves: twice he held all the
kings; the other called four aces.
AZ do not own dime in the world !"
cried the pale gentleman at last. "Wil
Won place two hundred dollars against my
watch ?"

The People Must be Trusted witt

JACKSON, Miss, Sept. S.
Governor SAARKKY publishes the follow
ing dispatch from President JOHNSON:
It is believed there can be organized in each
county force of citizens of militia, to sup
press disturbance, preserve order, and enforce
the civil authority Of the State and of the Unit
eminent to reduce the army, and to withdraw,
to great extent the federal forces from the
State, thereby reducing the enormous expenses
of the government
If there was any danger from an orgaBiza-
ton of the citizens for the purpose indicated,
the military are there to detect and suppress,
on the FIRST appearance of any movement in.
surrectionary in its character. One great OBJ.
Ject is to induce the people to come forward IN
the defence of the State and Federal Govern.
ment. Gen. Washington declared that the
people, or the militia, was the right arm of the
Constitution. AS soon as it is practicable, the
original design of the Government will be re-
sumed under the principle of the great chart
of freedom handed down to the people by the
founder of the Republic The people mast be
srasted ,cih their government, and if trusted, my
opinion is they will act in good faith, and re-
store their former constitutional relations with
all the States composing the Union.
The main object of Maj. Gen. Carl Schurzs
mission to the South was to aid, as far % prac.
ticable, in carrying out the policy adopted by
the government for restoring the States to
their former relations with the Federal gov
ernment It is hoped that such aid has been
given. e"
The proclamation authorizing the restoration
of the State government requires the military
power to aid the Provisional Governor in the
performance of his duties as prescribed in the
proclamation, and In no manner to interfere or
throw impediments in the way Of the consun-
nation Of the object OF his appointment, at
least witout advising the government of the
intended interference.

field, agent of the Overland Dispatch Company
possesses not only geographical interest BY
making us better acquainted with the interior
Of this continent, but is great value in mer.
camille point of view. The discovery makes
known route across the plains which reduces
the distance to Denver one hundred or one
hundred and fifty miles, and which has the ad-
vantage of avoiding the terrible Alkali Springs
Of the Platte route. via Fort Kearney which is
so fatal to cattle, Oecasioning the death in some
instances of thousands of animals The new
channel has the further advantage of enioying
a fortpight's earlier verdure than that of the
Platte river.
This newly. discovered route to the Rocky
Mountains lies up the vallew of the Kaw or
Kansas in the fork of the Smoky Hin River
and thence up that valley to the centre of the
continent at Denver. 1t presents a direct route
from New York through st. Louis, to the great
mineral regions OF the West. An officer Of the
United States army was detailed to accompany
Mr.. Butter6elds expedition, to make topo.
graphical observations, whose report will soon
be published by the general government.
Meanwhile, arrangements are making for the
transportation of passengers and freight across
the plains by the route, which in six weeks
Will be completed, the company having aban-
doned the old channel of Communication be-
tween the East and the West. Lawrence, the
present terminus of the Union Pacific Rail-
road, will be the new point of departure.
1t Is believed that this win give an increased
impetus to the vast traffic which is now car.
rled on between few points on the Missouri
river and the territories of Colorado, Idaho,
Montana, Utah. New Mexico and Arizona,
while it will afford increased facilities to the
stream of emigration which is flowing into and
across the plains. Correct statistical informa-
ton regarding overland traffic Is not easily at
tainable, but data for calculation is furnished
by the business of the Overland Despach Com
pany, which transports about one-tenth of the
freight sent across the plains.
This company by the close OF the season will
have sent 25, 900 tons, employing nearly 2. 600
wagons and {, 900 oxen. A single merchant of
Salt Lake CITY pays this season $50 600 for
freight, These facts demonstrate the imnor-
tance of expediting the work of the Pacific
Railroad Company.

THE VOICE OF THE PEsTILENCE

THE VOICE OF THE PEsTILENCE
This splendid poem was written In 1881, on
the approach of the cholera from the East to-
ward the western parts of Europe, and it is ap.
propriate to its renewed apparition and west
ward progress, as mentioned in recent jour-
nails
Breathless the course of the Pale White Horse,
Bearing the ghastly Form
Rapid and dark as the spectre bark
When it sweeps before the storm!
Baiefully bright through the torrid night
Ensanguined meteOrs glare
Fiercely the spires of volcanic fires
Stream on the sulphurous air!
Shades of the slain through the Murderer's
brain
Fit terrible and drear-
Shadowy and swift the black storm drift
Doth trample the atmosphere!
But swifter than ALL with darker pail
Of Terror around my path,
have arisen from my lampless prison
Slave of the high Gods wrath!
A deep Voice went from the Firmament.
And it pierced the caves of Earth
Therefore came on my wings of flame
From the dark place of my birth !!
And it is said: ''Go from the South to the
North,
Over yon wandering ball
Sin is the King of that doomed Thing.
And the sin-beguiled must fall"
Forth from the Gate of thy Uncreate,
From the portals of the Abyss
From the caverns dim where vague Forms
swim,
And shapeless Chaos is!
