steamer burned, etc. etc.

ST. LOUIS, July l0.-The steamers EeI-
lowstone and @. W. Graham, just returned
from the upper Missouri and laid up at
the lower end of the levee, were burned
this evenidg. The Yellowstone was valued
at $4,000 and insured for $4,000; the
Graham was valued at $25, 900 and insured
for $4,000. A large lot Of lumber and
stores lying on the levee took FIRE, and a
considerable quantity was destroyed. The
origin of the fire is unknown.
The report circulated in Chicago to-day,
that the cholera had broken out, is totally
unfounded. The city never was in better
sanitary condition, and the mortality is
less than for several years past.
A convention of millers and -four mer-
chants was held here to-day. Delegates
from Kentucky, Missouri, Indiana, and
Illinois were present. The object of the
convention was to form an association for
procuring statistics of the stocks of -four
and wheat in the different ports of the
country, and all information valuable to
Grade, in order to protect themselves against
false reports. The country delegates are
being entertained at a splendid banquet al

"REMINISCENCES.

The Philadelphia Press of the Sd, says
''This morning is the anniversary of the
battle of Gettysburg battle which saved
the country and made our State illustrious
forever in history"
Whereupon the Cincinnati Commercial
observes The principal thing the Penn
sylvanians were remarkable for when Lee
invaded the State was that their "minds
were all tore up" They ran like sheep
from the Rebels, OF remained at home in
stolid indifference. They did not turn out
to fight the invaders. Water was sold in
Harrisburg to the New York regiments
Fastening to the rescue Quite as many
Southern sympathizers were found by Lees
army in Pennsylvania as any OF cur armies
found Of Union men irrespective of color,
in the Southern States. The conduct of
the people of Gettysburg before and after
the battle, was distinguished by meanness.
One old shoemaker, named Burns, em-
bodied all the chivalry in the town. If
any doubt these assertions we advise them
to read the correspondence of the New
York papers, the Times especially, regard
ing the Gettysburgers during the days
whose big events they now assume made
them forever illustrious in history.

We would call attention to sec.
don Sf3 Of the Code as an Impor-
tant matter for our friends to note.
Commissioners Of Registration in coun~
ties in which the Radicals are defeated
in securing reliable majority Of the
registered voters may neglect or refuse to
appoint officers Of election, and thus de-
feat an election entirely. That section
is as follows:
"lf the Sheriff, or other officer whose
duty it is to attend at a particular place Of
voting under the foregoing provisions, fail
to attend, any Justice of the Peace present,
or, If no Justice Of the Peace be present, any
three freeholders may perform the duties
prescribed by the preceding sections, the
appointment OF election OfieeT or in case
Of necessity, may act as officers or in
spectors"
In the contingency referred to, there
fore, it is the duty Of three freeholders Ia
assume the place of the prohibited Coun
ty Courts and Sherias, and the recusant
Commissioners and fulfill the election
law. Let our friends look to this. Il
win be observed that the second guber-
material pronuneiamentO on this subject
impugned in advance the official integrity
OF Sherifs, and devised a new scheme fol
the return Of election polls The object
Of the oligarchy is to take the whole mat
ter out of the hands Of the elected officers
of the people, and entrust to its own APP
pointed agents. 1t is the business of the

A NEW CAUSE OF CHoLERA.
has been much discussion and great diver
sity Of opinion as 20 the cause Of chOlera.
An interesting paper was recently read
before the New York Medical journal
Association, by DR. Herzog, in which he
laws down as enc OF the principal causes
of the origin and spread Of cholera Is an
epidemic, Che existence Of soil impreg-
mated with organic matter, and perneable
for air and water 20 a certain depth. The
soil, as the natural receptacle OF human
eKcremenis, he believes, under the above
conditions, the great chemical ferment basis
for spOre-breeding, while In contrast, The
impeEmeability Of the soil for water and
arr represents the chemical process 30 well
known as mummi6cafi0n, or Immunity
against cholera. W
Many facts in regard 10 the effects OF
these causes on cholera are adduced, going
10 suhstantiate the Doctor's theory.

The Press and Times, for the lastthree
days, in its deliberate misrepresentation
Of the facts connected with the late riot
at Franklin, and in its articles in relation
to the political condition of the State and
the purposes Of its party in the ensuing
election, has done more to excite bitter
ness and create strife and foment blood
shed in this city and throughout the State,
than has been done by all the "Rebels' of
Tennessee since the surrender in 1865.
Its tone is violent, vindictive, bloody and
inhammatory. 1t spurns the field of ar
gument and fact, and assumes the more
congenialrole of mobocracy, denunciation
and falsehood. We have no comments to
make. Our sincerest desires and all our
efforts have been for peace, for law aud
justice, and we cannot consent to shift our
position to minister to the wants and ne
cessities of Radicalism We cannot
therefore, unite with the Press and Times
in its efforts to drench this city and State
in blood but it may be well to remind

is directed by its teaching that those who

CHARACTER OF THE LOYAL "Mi

The citizens Of Franklin county need
not be told any thing in regard to the
character of the loyal militia" They
have had the seyerest schooling upon this
point, and have learned from hard expe-
Renee the estimate to be placed upon
these pretended conservators Of the peace.
But Radical presses and orators endeavor
10 break the force of the bad conduct of
Rickmans mea by declaring that these
complaints come from disloyal per.
sons But it seems it is not necessary
to rely upon those who are called " dis
loyal by the Radicals to show that in
the main these loyal militia are COM
posed of the worst and most dangerous
element in the State. Here is some,
thing upon this point, the loyalty !
of the source whence it comes will hard
ly be questioned:
