yesterday rendered decision disoharging de

Reports in relation to the cholera IN this
city and the institutions continue very favor

demic has passed Its worst stage, and that
during the remainder Of the season the
death rate viii not be materially increased
BY the disease.
Gen. John H. Gleeson, Capt. Candon, and

citizens, but stated that the Lord Lieutenant
would deal with them the same as ordinary
subjects. Major Comerford came as an en-
voy TO Mr.. Stevens, and says the numerical
st rengsh and hope Of the Fenians in Ire
land are better now than when Stevens lefi
thai the people are determined to fight, ard
or no aid from America Their confidence
in Stevens is unsbated, and that they con
denim the conduct OF the factions in Amer

A Washington special says the Presiden,
and Mr. Seward will visit Auburn on their re-
turn from Chicago.
The report of the Freedmen's Bureau in
spectors recently made by Gems Steadman
and Fullerton is published. In the course OF
the report the officers state that there was
considerable dificulty in reporting upon a
settled mode Of administration among the
agents. There is an entire absence of sys stem
in the whole organization. The contract
system controls the labor of one State, while
the labor is not controlled at all in another
The general government furnishes the funds
in one district, and taxation of the planter
and the negroes furnish them in another.
They finally close their report by saving tha
the system OF contract enforced by the Bu'
reau IS simply slavery IN modified form.
