DSasIl.
New YoRx, July 9s.-A private let
ter by the last steamer from an Amer
lean resident at Para, Brazil, dated
July 4th, says the cholera has assumed
a very malignant form at Para. Nearly
every stranger in the city has died.
The English Consul died a few days
ago, and others today his wife is
also dying.
Quadeor and Labos, and all other
Brazilian physicians, are losing nearly
all their patients with fever. All
strangers are liable b take fever In
Para, and nearly every Portuguese who
emigrated to Para within the past six
or eight months died.
Several steamers which lately arrived
at New York from Para have been
auarantined in the lower bay, but the
last steamer from Rio vas permitted
to reach her dock, though she hao
touched at Para. $50 .Grian7Ty

Boy SMoKERs.--Here and there about
the street corners aud around the doors
of places of amusement, you will see
lot OF urchins, some of them decently
cladand presenting arespectable appear
ance, who are engaged in asserting their
manhood by putting away at execrabls
cigars. 1t is fair to presume that their
anxious mammas are not aware of the
foul habits their darling boys pick up
and practice outside of the paternal
roof; but for their benefit they should
know that it is stated that French ply
sician has investigated the effect of smok-
ing on thirty-eight boys, between the
ages of nine and fifteen, who we're ad-
dicted to the habit. Twenty-seven pre-
sented distinct symptoms of nictine poi
son. In twenty-five there were serious
disorders of the circulation, indigestion,
dizziness of intellect, and a marked ap-
petite for strong drink. In three there
was heart affection in eight decided de-
terioration of blood I; in twelve there was
frequent epistaxis; ten had disturbed
sleep, and four had liberation of the
mucus membrane of the mouth. 1t is
easy, then. to see how the ranks ofthe
drunkards and disolute men "about
town" are recruited, when there are 90
many boys in training for delirum tre-
mems and the horrors Of dissipation.-

eg THoS. b. DAvIs-Dear Sir:--
In reply to your question con.
tanned in your note of yesters
day l would say first, that we
have taken out Of the space
spoken OF 10000 tons of No. /
clear washed and picked lump
ore, and which Is the whole
amount taken out of this place
since l commenced operations
here, which was March II, 1868.
The space of ground dug over
to get that ore is as near as |
can Judge, one and a halt acres
Theu | would say that the prob.
ability is that we may take out
5000 to 10000 tons more from
the same space by going down
deeper for it. ysr f,. ..t.s.< :
l have now full 5000 tons
ready to ship. l believe | have
answered all your questions
and for which answer l have
the figures to show for all ex.
cepting the space Of ground
worked over which may be a
little more or a little less, but
will not vary much either way
Yours truly.
