From Geographic dispatch to the North Coli
fornian. dated San Francisco January II, We learn
that the cholera has arrived on this coast. The
dispatch says that the steamer America arrived at
one o'clock last night and was brought to by gun
from the wyandotte. The Purser's memoranda
makes no mention of disease of any kind on board,
although several deaths occurred, and some cases
Of illness existed among her passengers at the time
OF her arrival. The marine reporter says there are
seven soldiers now on board, on the sick list; five
soldiers died the passage with cholera; three CT
villains OF intermittant fever. Some forty soldiers
died on the Isthmus and as many citzens-nearly
one hundred in all. When the America arrived,
she was brought to of Saucelito by the revenue
cutter wyandotte. No boats are allowed to ap.
proach her. DR.. Elliott, the quarantine ohcer and
an army surgeon. left Meiggs' wharf in small
boat and the marine news reporter. Mr.. Silva, left
In his boat, but they were hailed and stopped
by the cutter. DIR. Elliott was taken on board of
the America by one of the revenue cutters boats.
While there the Goliah steamed down toward the
America to transport the soldiers to Angel Island,
but was admonshed by gun from the cutter to
approach no nearer. After while the Goliah was
allowed to approach. Dr. Elliott reports that of
the thousand passengers on board, five soldiers and
four civilians died Of cholera the passage; that
the condition Of the vessel is surely very favorable,
but a matter Of preeaution, it is deemed neces
sary to place her in quarantine. The passengers
will be landed at Saucelito and sheltered by tents
for which DR.. Elliott has already drawn on the mil
itary authorities. The number Of days for the
quarantine is not yet determined, but will be ar
ranged to o-day. There were CSC soldiers among
the passengers.
The Board hf Health has just adjourned. The

killing by Ignorant Apotheca-

We published few days ago the report
of woman having been killed through the
ignorance or carelessness of Brooklyn
apothecary, or his assistant, in putting up an
overdose of feu1 uon1icd. 1t is not the first
time such thing has occurred in this Met
ropolitan district, and it is not an unfre-
quent occurrence elsewhere in the cOun-
try. Much as this is to be deplored and
condemned, we must say that we are not
surprised that more people are not killed
from the same cause. There are few out OF
the vast number of apothecaries in this
metropolis who are educated in their busi-
ness. The greater part have had no
preparation for it. Then they employ
young men and boys who know
nothing of pharmacy or drugs, and
frequently those who are deficient in ordi-
nary education, at the most miserable sala-
ries. 1t is dreadful to reflect upon the risk
people run through these ignorant and
careless dispensers of poisonous articles
In almost every country in the world, or at
| least in all civilized countries, except in
this, druggists have to undergo a searching
examination and to get diploma before
they are permitted to put up medicines
We are in urgent need of a law compelling
this to be done here. We call upon our
| Lawmakers to pass such a law. In the
meantime the people themselves should
| patroniZe only those apothecaries who
know and attend to their business well. and
should make point of never again dealing
with one who has made such a fatal mis-
take as in the case to which we allude.-N.

The Situation.

lFrom the New FORK Herald
1t was natural that Jefferson Davis should
desire liberty. That he is free is as little
his fault as that he has not been tried. Now,
however, that we are rid of him, we have to
deal with another class of offenders. Who,
we ask, is to blame? Some say the President:
some say Chief Justice Chase; some say Con
gress; some say Judge Underwood. The
partisans of each of these. we understand,
are very keen. Of one thing, at least, we
are certain-the blame does not rest with
the people. We do not feel disposed to go
in for any one of the above mentioned par
ties. Whether the blame rests more
with the President than with the Judi
ciary, or more with Congress than with
either, we are less certain than that it will
be divided among them. 1t was equally in
the power of the President, the Congress,
the Judiciary, to force on the trial. All
have failed. The people of the United
States have been betooled and disgraced in
the eyes of the world-and by whom? By
their acknowledged and elected heads.
Worse than that, they are being ground
down by a system of the most meddling
and oppressive taxation which any nation
has ever experienced. For what pur-
pose? To punish treason-treason which
has been declared impossible in the
republic. By whom has this decla-
ration been made? By their acknowl-
edged and elected heads. We have
tried to put the question clearly before
the minds of the American people, know
ing, as we do, that the instincts of the peo-
Pile are just and right, and that in the long
run they will respond to what is true, We
drop the subject for the present by leaving
to the consideration of the great public
two questions: FirsJ-Who is to blame for
tLis failure of justice? Second-Sincejus-
tice has failed, since treason is not treason,
and since we have been bearing the present
burden of debt in the belief that treason
was treason, is it worth while bearing it
anv longer E.-

A Novel Love Story i'm Marion

A young couple, the girl a daughter of
one of our wealthy citizens, the young
man "poor but honest" met and "fell in
love-" The parents doated upon their
pretty and accomplished daughter and dis
countenaneed the visits of the young man.
Meetings by stealth were planned, and
finally an elopement was agreed upon. All
this was kept profound secret, as was
supposed, from the parents. TluOt
The night and the hour came. Quietly,
noislessly the young Miss descended a lad
der improvised for the occasion, and the
twain were making their exit from the gate,
when they were suddenly surrounded by
two men, one the father of the lady, the
other stranger, and captured. They were
taken, half willingly, half reluctantly, into
the house and the parlol.- The stranger
threw off his mask and discovered to the
couple a minister, the father produced a
marriage license, simultaneously the moth
er and brothers and sisters made their ap-
pearance and the couple were Immediate
ly married, with the blessings of all pres
ent. .-Er - .-.' ....rs t- ,s.- .f.r~
The parents were apprised of their
whole proceedings, and seeing, the mutual
love of the two, resolved to let love take
its course, while their good sense made a
happy denoaaaent of what might other
wise have been serious and unfortunate
affair for life. God will bless these noble
hearted parents. The son-in-law was do
ing as well as could be expected at last ac-
counts under the circumstances, and peace
and happiness smiled on the whole family.

7Anotller IPenian Excitement.

The whole Fenian Brotherhood. from the
humblest individual of the /, r., RS to the
z, Or l. r., are again, in great state of ex-
citement, caused by the report, that the
lighting members are on the warfp path and
are congregating on the Canadian border
for the purpose of making inoursions into
the British North American, colonies and
raiding upon the Canadian farmers. What
foundation these rumors have, further than
the report that large quantity of green
uniforms have suddenly disappeared from
the headquarters in Broad way, we have
been unable, after diligent inquiry, to as
certain. The uniforms, about which SO
much has. been said, may, for all we know
to the contrary, have found their way into
some old clo' establishment in Chatham
street, to satisfy the purposes of some of
the, fussy leaders of the organization in
this city. no --a,.s..-,.l, -, =

the excitement is equally great, and John
Bulls North American subjects are in a
high state of alarm in consequence of the
reported prospect of q sudden invasion by
hordes of hated Fenians, which they al
ready begin to count by tens OF thousands.
Volunteers have been called for, regulars
are ordered to be ready earthworks are
being thrown up and guns planted to meet
the foe at every point, and all because a
few Fenian uniforms have been taken from
the rooms of the Head Centre, and the
apartments advertised to let. We have no
forshadowed evidence of another Fenian
movement at present. and we cannot be-

Radical ChiId whipping.

The Nep York World, in reference to
the recent trial and conviction of G. G.
Williams, of Norwich, Connecticut, for
assault with intent to kill his daugh hter
by Starvation and dwelling upon the par
allel between that and the Lindsey tragedy,
thinks: ...tE
at is no stretch of the fancy to trace, in
the treatment of the smitten South by the
Radicals, the workings of the same spirit
which would torture little children to graf
ify certain self-will. And when Senator
Wilson next informs the motley crowds in
the Southern States, which listen to his ha-
rangues, that he entertains only kindly
feelings towards those who were lately in
arms against the Government, the reports
of his oft-repeated invectives against
Southern men and women, and the attitude
he would be sure to assume in case of the
slightest show of opposition to the tyran-
nical will of the party which controls the
National Legislature of which he was an
acknowledged leader, clearly prove that
there courses in his veins, and in the veins
of his adherents, the same spirit which led
Lindsey and Williams to kill their chill
dren on the plea of INSTRUMENTATION and
from all such Good Lord deliver us -"

How1ing at Horace Greeley. 2

A few editors and others-we are happy
to say they are few-yelp at Horace Gree
ley for the part he has taken in demanding
of the Government that JEFF. Davis ought
to be tried or released and acting as if he
thought this true. The asking of so plain a
matter of right and justice has at last had
its weight with the Administration. But
the ire of the fanatics has been kindled anC
they do not hesitate to class so true pat
riot and enemy of rebellion and slavery as
Horace Greeley has proven himself, among
traitors. We say Greeley did nothing
wrong when he thundered in the ears Of
the Government and the people again and
again, ITO keep man in prison without
trial, is violation of law, not obedience tC
it," The howlers are not worthy to stooI
down and unloose the shoe-latchet of Hor-
ace Greeley.-LebanOn Star (RGd)
