WASHINGTON, Jan 21.-Colonel " hir
tlessy, Assistant Commissioner OF the
Bureau of refugees, freedmen and aband-
oned lands, in North Carolina, reports
that the demand for laborers cannot cas-
lily be supplied. He says the expecta
tion that land would be granted by the
government a hope first kindled by rebel
politicians in their efforts to fire the
Southern heart and afterSard increased
by the confscation act, has now passed
away. All officers of the bureau discoun-
tenanced such hopes by public addresses
and circulars, widely scattered, but so
liked had they become before the war
closed; it was not easy to eradicate them.
When, however Christmas actually pas
sed without any gifts Of the kind, it was
admitted We had told them the truth
aud they had been deceived by the talk
of their former masters So, also. on the
other hand have all fears of insurrection
passed away All admit that more
quiet and orderly Christmas has never
been enjoyed in this region. The his
tory ofthe world may be challenged FOL
another instance OF such good conduct
in similar circumstances as the freedmen
have thus far maintained

NEw YORK, Jan 22-The World :
Berlin correspondent reports the preva-
lence of panic in the Prussian capital
second oaly to that caused bJ the appear
ance of the cholera. The trichine dis
ease. a new and terrible malady. is
spreading through Prussia, and of those
attacked by it at least twenty-five per
cent die a horrible death. Surgeons
trace the origin Of the malady to a spe-
cies of worm that attacks pigs, and as
the Germans are essentially pork eat
ing people, and prefer their food only
partially cooked, the new scourge has ut
terly dissarranged their habits and caus-
a feeling of intense alarm to pervade ali
classes.
Two men named David Shift and Geo.
BOYER have been arrested and identified
as the robbers OF the messenger of the
Farmers and Citizens National Bank of
Williamsburg, Long Island, on Friday.
No clue to the money has yet been dis
covered.
