NEW YORK, Aug. 22.AThe reports Of
yesterday showed slight decrease in
the number of new cases of cholera in
this city, and a rather more severe NOR
talitY from the same cause. There
were - new cases and is deaths; reporf-

Will disappear at an early day.
For the last "a hours there were 70

ed in the city. Only three cases, with
one death, were reported in Brooklyn.
CINCINNATI, Aug. 22.-Fifty-three
deaths from cholera yesterday.
LoUIsvILLE, Aug, 2l.-In . this city
there have been 81 deaths by cholera
since the 18th, exclusive of the soldiers
in the Barracks, of whom eight deaths
are reported, including three deaths to-

including cholera, during the present
summer, than for several seasons past.
CHICAGO, Aug. 22.-There were eigh-
teen cases of Cholera and six deaths re-
ported TO the health officer yesterday.
ST.. LOUIS, Aug. 22.-The police re-
port of the cholera for the "a hours end

New -YoRK, Aug. 2O.-The journal
du Havre, of August 8, fsays: News
comes from all quarters that Russia is
making great concentrations OF troops
on the frontier Of Germany, and this
military manifestation appears de-
signed to eXercise pressure on Prussia.
The Russian Journals make use oflan-
guage tending to confirm the anthem
ticity of the intelligence. In consider
ing the situation which PrussiR has
just created for herself in Germany, the
MuscoYite Press declares that Russia
does not fear. the extension of the pow
er of the Holm Zollens, but that she
ought nevertheless to direct her atten-
ton to it. The Moscow Gazette, the
journal of NJ. Kalkaff, devotes to this
question a remarkable article. The
following are some of the principal
passages; Nobody in Russia, for the
moment at least, fears Prussia, even
gith her needle guns, but If that power
places itself atthe head of all Germany,
the Russian Government will find il
impossible not to come to a reckoning
with q State become so considerable.
The sound policy OF: statesmen In Rus
STA can never wait for combination
in which Prussia might become a dam
gerous neighbor. Therefore Russia
ought to take time byf the forelock.
Here is the great point of the article,
the writer of which enjoys moral au-
tnor1ty In Russia as great as that OF the
Governor. BE says: %; the policy of
conquest peculiar to Count Bismark
does not yet terrify us, but the aug
mentation of the power of neighbor-
ing state, and above all, the conditions
OF European equili brium, which are in
cessantly varying, imposes on us the
necessity of demanding compensation
proportioned to the situation Of Pms
STA in Europe. NJ. Kalkaff addresses
the Russians to profit by the occasion
TO seize on grand duchy of Posin.

surrendered and abandoned property.
Inc attention of the treasury authori-

to the prOpriety. of appointing custom

sengers arriving from foreign ports, as
sufficient evidence had been received to
show that large quantities of dutable

been made for the port of New York,
which exhibits the following as the
sums collected since 1862: In the year
