RUMORED DISTURBANCE IN RICH.
MOND.

There is report that the Government, here,
has interiered with proposed celebration, by
the cOlored people of Richmond, of the an,
niversary of the fall of that city, on the Sd
inst. We have the best authority for saying
that neither the President or Gen GRANT has
interiered in the matter in any manner. The
subject is entirely within the control of Gen
TERRY, who is man of safe judgment, and
being on the ground, knows best what to dc
in the premises. He is authorized to act pru-
IDENTIFY in the event of any unnecessary OF
illegal disturbance of the peace on either
side.

fat friend has told us an accident that has
happened to him, but had rather we wouldn't men
tion his name. He was riding upon one of the
street cars which has but single track, and was
maintaining precarious footing upon the out
sde-not of the railroad but the car. AS every one
knows, where there is but one track one car has
to stand still while the other passes, at points
where, for this purpose, the rails are doubled. To
do this properly the car that is stationary should
stop at point that prevents them coming too
close together On the occasion in question the
car, perhaps did not stop in exactly the right
postion-at least, this was the impression of the
stout gentleman in question. He was on the out
side Of the car-another was coming past. To
add to The critical situation there was fat man,
as big as all out-ofd doors, upon the car that was
in motion, and upon the side next to him. The
consequence was obvious. There was not room
enough for two of the fattest men in town to pass
each other without collision. Two bodies can't
occupy the same space. Wehave not heard how
serious was the injury, or what doctor was called
n But this is a free country, or at least is SO
called, and man ought not to be imposed upon
on account of his size. The stout gentleman says
that he was never for little while made to feel
so small in his life, and talks of his damages.

of cholera, the lot of shanties known as Corduroy
alley been torn down, their inhabitants scattered
and the street and cutters well washed by water
from the river. Let us learn to profit by the
te4c lll's Of experience, and we with facility
wa oil e dangers Of the ature.
Anot 'er lnaiGr f. which it is my desire to call
publc atten on IS the frequency Of abortions
Gmo1g negro women. tits not he fact as would
be supoo ed that these aborti0bs sprinq from
Grim IA attempts with the view Of relieving them
selves from TIE burden Of a new social oLlition;
but rather believe them TO be produced by so sud
den tran it'on from tie condition Of bono re to
one of FIRE dom. Under their former condition of
life, at the first indications of the approach Of
abartion, the master who had an interest and not
only an interest butan affection in their welfare,
hastened to procure the advice Of competent ply
sicians and to supply all the wants incident to so
delicate situation. How different is it at the
present time? the whole system is changed; neces-
sity, memorable necessity, compefs them to labor
IN order to satisfy the wants Of daily life. With
out the providence to look in health to the re-
quirements Of the future, they consequently can
not take care of themselves in sickness.
In fine, the sudden appearance of cholera in our
midst, despite the b0asted barriers Of quarantine
reiteraes for hundredth time the proof of inefi-
cacy Of any quarantine measures for the purpose
Of preventing this fatal disease measures which
can possibly produce other effect but to re-
strict commerce uselessly unless indeed it is that
quarantine serves to increase the malignancy of
the disease, since it deprves us of many necessary
articles, which the rig0r Of quarantine prevents
from entering our ports.
