Cholera I'm Cincinnati.

There have, been indefinite and exr
aggerated reports ii this region in
refdreneei to theiqaxistencelIof the
cholera in Cincinnhtigand the almost
complete silence of the papers of that
city has led to the impression that the
fact of its presence was being sup
pressed. 1t is always better to state
the facts as they really exist, which
will prevent, in great measure, the
exaggerated reports so general in
reference to this stbtifge. There is
no doubt that the cholera does exist
in Cincinnati, but not to the extent
reported. We find the following in
the faYp'ffqgb 4 If pthea 3l7t .ult,,
which is doubtless correct:

ANOTHER BARK FROM SUMMERS

The following is an item of Sunday reading
in the Chronicle of yesterday:
They may ransack the files of the Union
newspapers, beginning with the Chronicle
and the Press and they may hunt through
the speeches of Union statesmen, and they
will nowhere find, tCritten or hiRted at, sym
pathy with the bafflcd murderers Of the Re-
public, or a willingness to associate with men
who boast that they cannot and will not take
the oath prescribed under the laws"
The author of the above received to his
bosom and home, and feasted and "asso
ciated" with the notorious rebel ROGER A.
Pryor
The author Of the above, on the 23d day
of February, 1865, proposed in the Chronicle
when the rebellion was the weakest, to bride
the rebel officers and soldiers with greenback'
to LAY down their arms and return to theil
allegiance"
The author of the above reasonable propo
sition on the 9Th of April, 1868, said:

Of success, his Lees resistance t0dS epcuSa

wAsHSGrOS April 0.
GEN. nOwARss INTERVIEW.
At the recent interview between the President
and Gen. Howard-the only ono since the issue Of
ing conversation took place, the points of which
am able to give you.
The General was received by appointment, and
met a cordial welcome. He explained that he had
sought the interview fer the purpose of learning
without delay the effect which the proclamation
was designed to produce upon the methods and
machinery Of the Bureau. More specifically, he
wished to know whether martial law was now abol.
ished and with 1t the system of military courts
established for the election Of the otherwise IN
protected freed people.
The President replied without hesitation that the
proclamation was declaration Of policy, and
nothing more; that 1t did not abolish military
courts; did not remove martial law, and was not
designed to modify the opsrations.o of the Bureau
in any respect whatever. On the contrary, 1t was
the Presidents expectation and express desire that
the administration Of the Bureau should be con-
tnued as heretofore and that all judicial functions
should be exercised the interests Of impartial
justice might require. The President further OBJ
served that this proclamation would be executiyey
interpreted and administered precisely as was the
proclamation in regard to Tennessee. As the
States, or parts Of States, gave unques' iOnablC
evidence Of their entire readiness to do impartial
justice, they would be individually and locally re
eyed from military government not otherwise, mol
| sooner.
The General then asked specifically concerning
Kentucky, abiding to the extreme reluctance o.
the citizens Of that loyal State to allow any inter
meddling with its local affairs, and intimating his
personal readiness to receive any instructions which
the President might be pleased to convey Thu
| President replied that there could be no discrim
inatOn in favor Of the unreasonable prejudices oil
the people Of any State that the administration o
| General Fiske, so far as he could learn had no
been oppressive, but only defensive Of the rights o
| his wards; and that such an administration mus
be continued in kentucky, as elsewhere, just a
long as the temper Of the white people should rem
| der II necessary
The Generals impression at the close of the in
terview was clear that 1t was the declared purpos'
of the President to accomplish through the presen
organization Of the Bureau, substantially what
aimed at in the Civil Rights bill. He docs no
anticipate any disposition on the part Of the Pres
dent to the legitimate execution Of the Civil Right
bill when II shall become a law and he is, there
fore, preparing In accordance with the President
wish, for vigorous exercise of all the functions Q

TIE wonderful process of making cord
wood into paper, ut the new paper factory near
Philadelphia, was illustrated on Thursday in pre-
senco of large company, by "cutting a poplar
from the hillside and converting 1t into clear white
soft paper in tho short space of 1--WE hours" II
poplar wood can DO turned into leaves Of popular
periodical at such short notice. the sooner our paper
makers embark in the enterprise the better for the
people who read books, magazines and the daily
journals. When Daphne, one Of Diana's nymphs was
in danger Of rayishment, the goddess transformed
her into tree to foil the base designs Of her pur.
suor, and a modern Daphne flying to such refuge
might herself be converted into pulp and furnish
the sheets on which to record her sad fate.

To-day being the anniversary Of emancipation in

we unofhcially Informed, by the colored people
here, without distinction of party or sect. 1t is
most natural that these freedmen should celebrate
the anniversary of an event the most important
that could have happened to them, and which,
thank God, was subsequently, extended to their
race throughout the nation. If the weather should
be favorable. they will have grand celebration.
