Nine cases of cholera were report
ed on Wednesday in the New Orleans
work house. DIR. Stone in address
ing the Board of Health, stated that
the city was villainously filthy, but
that little could be done to make it
clean until some general plan of
draining could be adopted. All that
could be done was to recommend
measures to the council. A great
many families are leaving the city; the
boats across the lake and the Poncha-
train Railroad are crowded to their ut
most capacity. The mortality among
the freedmen is very great While the
coroner was holding an inquest over a
negro who died of cholera, three cases

Louisville Merchant Beaten out Of
$4,000 BY His Cineihsiti Bride.

$1,000 BY His Ctnetnattt Bride.
FIom The Louisville Democrat Augusta
At late hour last night we were in
formed OF rather romantic affair, il It
may properly be called such, in which
a we'll know clothing merchant on Mar
ket street was diddled out of some
80, 800 BY the one whom he had selec-
ted as his partner for life. The facts
is related to us are about these The
aforesaid merchant for some time had,
through correspondence and rather fire.
quent visits, become enomored of a
young lady residing in Ohio, which
feeling was reciprocated, and.a match
was finally agreed upon. The day
fixed for the performance of the nup-
tials rites was last Friday, and the
Louisville merchant, the hero of this
narrative, repaired to Cincinatti, and
he and his favorite one, blushing
damsel from the Buckeye State, were
united in the holy bonds of wedlock.
The two returned to this city at once,
and were ushered into finely furnished
rooms which had been prepared for
the occasion
Tuesday the wife Of our merchant
asked her husband the key to his trunk
giving as an excuse that she wanted to
look at some of his clothing, saving
that it would be better to hang it up
in wardrobe than to keep it in the
trunk. Trusting the one in whom he
had placed confidence, and who had at
the altar sworn to live with him until
death, he gave his keys to her When
he went home Tuesday night his bride
was missing, nor did she return. A
investigation as to the cause
of her absence developed the fact that
she had left for parts unknown, carry
ing with her 50, 600 in greenbacks
which were in the trunk of her liege
lord The name of the man thus beat
is Moses.

The Cincinnati Commercial has
quoted,the National InteIlIgencer sew
cral times as declaring that Conven-
tions ofloyal Southern men would not
be tolerated in Southern States. The
Irtelligencer denies making such a
statement That the charge is false
every one who knows anything about
the South must admit. Radical meet
ings have been held in Memphis, New
Orleans, and many Southern cities, at
which the most inhammatory and abu-
siye harangues were delivered, but no

he said: at was the will of God that
we should not succeed. We seemed
to be within reach of success two or
three times, but just missed it 1t

results of the suffering and sacrifice Of
the struggle may yet he attained in

in the habit of eating arsenic, for the
purpose of identifying her complexion,
yesterday morning took an over dose
of the poison, Which came near kill
