The PANIC IN ENeLAND.-It seems as il
the recent panic in England were a judg-
meut upon the ruling classes Of that coun-
try who have such unfrendly feelings to-
ward the United States. For the past five
years the London journals, with but few
exceptions, have been predicting q fnan-
cial collapse in this country. and laying
the scene at New York. Day after day
they have thought they detected the first
symptoms. and so told their readers, and
at length the panic came-but not at New
York. where their hopes would have
placed it, but at their own doors in Lon
don. sweeping like wildare through the
great metropolis, and dethroning the
money kings on all sides. 1t seems that
this and the fact that in the face of the
grea, disaster American securities exhib-
tied such wonderful steadiness, were in
tended as 4 lesson to those who have SO
long wished evil to the United States.

from that time onward be q place OF pub
lie recreation, and our best point for cele-

bration. Tho Superintendenss Of mines

The King of the PestiIence.

The arrival of the steamer Peruvian in
the harbor of New York, carrying on
board that terrible freight, cholera, is the
third warning which we have had during
the present season, of the approach of the
Asiatic pestilence. 1t is not often that
death takes such pains to herald his COM
ing. And, sudden and swift and terrible
as is the plague whose omens fill the air,
we have this at least for which to be
grateful to it-that it has sent its messen-
gers before it to prepare way for its
coming. We owe it the more thanks be-
cause this is of all diseases the one against
which care and cleanliness can most easi-
" provide. Forewarned; forearmed. By
giving US fair notice of its approach it
has enabled US to take arms against it.
And We believe that the country has made
provision against it to q greater extent
than ever before When the cholera
comes it will find Us ready, and the
scourge will be light one-much lighter
than in former years. In order that our
readers may understand what the cholera
has done in Cleveland during the periods
of its visitation here, We print to-day in
our local columns a very interesting arti-
Gle in reference to the history ofthe plague
in this city on its three visits here,
1t will be seen that the cholera has never
ragged here SO virulently as in many cities
of the country, owing in part to the ex.
cellent location Of the city, on hill slop
