The Cholera GINNING.

The latest sdvices from Europe repre-
sent that notwithstanding the approach OF
autumn weather, the cholera is increasing
in its extent and desIuctiveness, and is
making rapid strides westward. It is not
impossible thst it may appear among us
during the present season. There is moth
ing in the history or phenomena of the
disease TO preclude the possibility of It's
appearance and prevalence in the fall and
winter months as well as in the summer.
In fact the present time, when, as far ss
We can learn, sickness is everywhere pre-
vailing to an unusual and alarming extent,
owing to the late exceedingly and unsea-
sonably hot weather, would be most favor
able TO its introduction and wide extension
among US. We warn our citizens, there
fore, that there is not even present inmu.
nifty from danger. The cholera may break
out In this country today CT tomorrow
And even if it should not come immediate.
ly, 1t is very probable that it will appear
among US next season. 1t becomes US
therefore, to have our house swept and
garnished. Let the most rigid sanitary
measures, public and private, be enforced,
and at once. There is imminent danger in
delay.

The Wtrz Trial.

WAsHINGToN, September %
A most remarkable scene transpired at
the trial of Capt. Wirz, TO day. A Young
man named Geo. w. Gray, a member Of
an IDdIana Cavalry regiment, n1d been
testifying to some Outrsges on the part of
Wirz, that had not been before put in
evidence. he testified that he knew VIM
to shoot man named William Stewart.
belonging TO the oh Minnesota infantry,
and detailed the circumstances under
which the 6sstardly deed was committed;
and s:sted that the first time he had known
Capt. Wirz personally, was one day when
be heard his name called at the gate, stat
ing that he would be able to recognize
him now.
Judge Adv. cate Ohipmsn then said
"Captain Wiz will you be good enough TO
stand up"
The prisoner who had been lying all
day on lounge, tquirmed round, partly
raising himself, till his eyes, lit up with a
wild hsggsrd expression, and yet glsring
like those of wild animal brought 10 bsy,
met the eyes of the witness.
Col. Chapman asked the witness: "Do
you reccgniz9 that man as the man who
shot your comradeR"
The witness said slowly and emphatical-
ly: "Tbst is the man"
The prisoner here made sn eff,rt to con.
trsdict the witness, mutteriug some inco-
herent expression. He wss with difficulty
silenced by the officer in charge.
Ibe Judge Advocate, apparently not
satisfied with the opportunity which the
witness had for Identification, asked the
prisoner to rise. Gathering up as well as
he could his loose, ill-jointed frame, which
appeared IS if it might fall to pieces, the
prisoner tottered to his feet, and wss sup
ported in thst attitude by the officer of the
guard. His eyes had a wild expression,
and it was hard to repress sympathy with
the unfortunate man
Again the Judge Advocate repeated his
question to the witness.
The witness reply this time was more
hestitsting, and was IL think that is the
man,
Another wild and fruitless attempt at
contradiction was made by Whz, when he
was partly drawn to the lounge, upon
which he sank, where by order of General
Wallace he was furnished with cold water |
and famed by the officers.
The court thereupon adjourned.
General Wallace ordered the rooms to |
be cleared instantly SO that the faintiRe |
The halls and lobbies were lined with |
persons waiting to see him as he might be |
carried past.
The prosecution will probably close to- |
morrow, but it is doubtful whether Wirz |
will live to see the case closed.

THB RAvEESA SUIcIDs.-We published, g
statement of the suicide of Phillip Akerlyl
of RsVsnna, the morning after it occurredV
on Monday last. The Democrat says:
Messrs. Lowe and Akerly came to Raven
nasbout year and half ago, from Chilli
cothe, where they had been in the same
business in which they were engaged here,
in fact their partnership has existed for
some three years and half About two
years ago Akerly wss married to lady liv-
ing at Jackson Station, near Erie, Pa.
About the middle Of June, Mrs. Aksrly be-
ing in i'll health went home, where she has
remained for treatment. The husband re-
mained here and has kept house by himself
until just 3 week ago,When he went to board
with his partner Lowe. Upon Sunday even
ing he told Mr.. Lowe that for q week or two
he had been much out of health, aud man
ifested much distress of mind, saying that
he would rather be dead than continue so
longer, and proposed to 90 to Cleveland on
Mondsy MOI ming for treatment. With this
understanding Akerly retired about half
past eight o'clock. At four O'Clock on Mon
day morning, he was heard to come down
stairs by Mr.. Lowe, who asked him if he
wanted light. Akerly replied no, and
won't cut OF the house. The next time he
was seen was when he was found dead. AT
the lime ne leIb loves mouse on CheSnut
street, it was raining heavily, and he went
out only partially dressed, leaving his coat
and vest behind him. Il is supposed he
went at once to his house and committed
the fatal act. He hung himself in the kitch-
en- Of the premises, with o clothes line,
which was attached to g j0ist six or seven
feet from the floor. A chair stood by his
side on which he stood when adjusting the
moose about his neck. He died apparently
without 9 struggle, and Of stran gulation-
The deceased was thirty-fve years of age.
Coroner G. B. Curtiss, of CharlestoWD,
held an inquest. The jury returned YER
dict, finding "that the deceased came TO
his death By committing suicide by hang
ing himself, while in q temporary Mt Of in
sanity"
Nothing was found among the effects Of
the deceased to throw any light upon his
fatal purpose, and the verdict Of the jury is

The way of the trAnsgressor is hard.
Democrats are discovering the truth of this

state they have been of late years in ter
rible minority, and were likely to continue
30 unless they made some bold stroke for
success. They therefore seized upon the
negro suffrage question in the hope of divid-
ing the Republican party, and called 3
soldiers Convention" of all opposed to
negro suffrage, to nominate soldiers
ticket" The convention met and the
ticket was nominsted, but the Democrats
discovered too late that they had evoked
spirit which they could not control The
nominee of this soldiers convention, Colonel
Benton, hiss contemptuouslY turned his
back upon the men who organized the
movement declaring that he Is not and
never intends to be, "Democrat" This
course on the part of Colonel Benton has
SO disgustsd his Democratic supporters
that the macs Of them'seceded and called

and nominated estates Rights" ticket
headed by the name of DR.. G. s. Bailey
for Governor. It is impossible to predict
which ticket will receive the most votes,
but We think that Bailey has the inside
track, Is he stands on 9 square "Demo-

platform. Meantime Colonel Stone, the

clares clearly for impartial suffrage, viii
