CHOLERA RAvAGEs IN CONSTANTINE.
Plea cable telegram from Constant.
nople, reports the sad fact that the cholera
has invaded the Turkish capital in its
gaunt strides through the Eastern coun.
tries. Its first effects have been of a very
fatal character. Seventy persons died
from the disease last Saturday. The
weather was extremely hot, and the sup
ply of water in the city scanty, as usual,
so that two causes most favorable to the
propagation and continued duration Of the
epidemic were present. This is to be re-
GREETED, more particularly as the poorer
classes Of the Turks ia Coustantinople
have suffered so severely of late from con.
fl4gratiors and other calamities. The
health authorities will doubtless make
due Tote of our news advices.

Orange County Fair.
BRADFORD, Sept. 90.

BRADFORD, sept. 49,
Editor Rutland Herald:-In years past
we have held our fairs in October, and
sometimes the GOODNESS of the weather has
made them almost failures. The time
was changed for the first time this fall,
and the result ia plainly manifest. The
fair is decided success. The show of
cattle was remarkably fine, good time was
made upon the course, the fastest being
about GAG. The people turned out en- mass
from the neighboring towns, and the fair
grounds presented quite lively appear.
ance. The Floral Hall was an object of
attraction and was density crowded the
greater part of the last two days. Home
made carpeting was abundant, and looked
finely. Some fine oil paintings were on
exhibition by Miss Pritchard, and Miss
johnson showed skill in her works, many
Of which adorned the hall. The display
of fruit was good for this year. Quite
number of places of amusement were
stationed upon the ground, and open to
all for small admittance fee, among
these was the tent containing the original
Cardiff Giant, which was we'll patronized.
We observed no drunkenness, whatever,
g. thing of unusual occurrence upon
such an occasion, and worthy of COM
mendation. The managers of the fair
performed their several duties with alacr-
ity, and the days passed away pleasantly
and highly satisfactorily to all. The
Trotter House, under the control OF
Stevens, formerly of Rutland, did -four
ishing business. Mr. Stevens is a true
gentleman, and never will be wanting
patronage. These county fairs, in my hum
BILE opinion, areconducvie of much good.
The old farmers, upon such occasions are
enabled better to see the progress which
is being MAIDEN raising stock, and it slim
ulates them to extra exertion. 1t gives
the boys from the hills, an opportunity to
engage in small trades, and behold the
confusion and tumult of active life, awak-
ening in their minds new thoughts and
aspirations. Let the men of Orange
county be encouraged by their success
this year, and determine upon making
these annual fairs active, living institu-
tions, productive of much good, as they
really are if rightly conducted. A.

BEECHER.-The New York Ee1uld in
speaking of the sermons, on Sunday. in
New York and elsewhere, says: "But
greater far than ALTO the hearts of
thousands at least-the Rev. Henry Ward
Bsecher was at home. He appeared in
Plymouth church. He stood on the
platform (uot pulpit or altar, smothered
almost 10 flowers, surrounded with velvets
and rich clotbs, smiled on by sunny eyes
and cheered by church nusic-joyous
robust, and giving joy. His sermon was
quite refreshing, strengthened as he has
been in body by the use of salt water and
pure air. The text was, "But my God
shall supply all your need. according to
His riches in glory, ly Jesus Christ"
Mr.. Beeeher did full justice to the sent
ence, drawing his hearers still closer to
himself and thence directing them heav-
onward by words of sympathy and en-
enlargement, instead of the language of
severe end dishesrtening reproof.

CIRCUMsTANTIAL EVIDENCE. - Elk
Governor Hamilton, of Texas, says be has
never seen any of the members of the
present State government steal anything,
but "when we see a poor miserable cuss,
who never had $3.50 in his life, come to
Austin, borrow money TO pay expenses,
and presently find him losing thousand
dollars a night at faro, driving around q
fancy team, making liquor bills, and all
sorts of bills, and buying buggy and
the horses to go home in. We, know be is
steal.'

SAD ACCIDENT AT "A
sad and fatal accident occurred at the new
Methodist Episcopal nrcb, Schenectady,
which lis being erected by Mr.. Van
Check, of Syracuse, who is also building
the new M. E. Church in Saratoga. Mr..
John G. MeChesney, prominet lawyer
of that place, and several other persons
were standing near the church, looking
at the workmen, who were hosting some
timber by a tackle, whentiS gave way, the
timber, in its descent sticking Mr.. Nc
Chesney on the head, crushing in his skull
and killing him instantly. The cause of
its falling was by the Strengthening out
of the hook which held the tim Der, and as
that is something that was unforeseen no
blame can be attached to Mr.. Van O., the
contractor. Had Mr.. McChesney remain
ed in the position that he WIS standing
when the hook began to give way he
would have been unipjured, as he was
cautioned to this effect, but thinking to
better his position he moved and received
the fatal blow. He was about sixty years
of age, and leaves widow and four chill
dren to mourn his loss.

STORM AND SHIPwRECKs ON THE
BRITISH CoAsT.-The cable news tele-
grams from London bring melancholy
confirmation of the extreme violence of
the storm by which the coast of Great
Britain has just been visited. Steamers
and sailing vessels were wrecked or dis.
ablsd, with all chance of aid to their
drowning crews cut eff by the force of the
gale. Sixteen persons persisted in the
Humber by the four dering of Sunder-
land steamer and an Italian brig Tele.
grams from Grinsby supply narrowing
details of wrecks which occurred 10 the
very sight of the people on shore. An
American sbipmaster, the commander Of
the Bertha Thayer, was swept from the
deck Of his vessel and lost, and the ship
forced to put back into Penarth Roads.

RUNAwAY.-A frightful runaway took
place Saturday afternoon. The delivery
team of McWilliams Bros, containing the
porter, who was driving, Miss McWilli.
ans and Mrs. O'Neil. of Rutland. took
fright when opposite DR.. Nichols resi-
dence on College street, and ran down the
street at breakaeck speed, throwing out
the driver and Miss McWilliams when
turning the corner of College and Water
streets. The horse then kept down Water
street at fearful pace, and did not bring
up until he reached the store of McWil-
liams Bros, where the wagon struck the
hitching post, precipitating Mrs. O'Nel
to the ground. Strange to say all escaped
with slight injuries. The accident was
caused by tho breaking of the girth.-

The DEMOCRACY. - The Louisville
Courier Journal is alarmed at reported
proposition OF the Executive Committee
of the State to suspend the existence and
functions of the democratic organization
until after the next Presidential election
1t thinks the proposition means the dis
banding OF the democratic party and the
formation of a new party. The whole
has Bourbonic odor.

THE NEW YORK DEMOCRATIC Con
vENTION. - The Rochester Democratic
Convention which meets to-day, will be q
much more lively and interesting affair
than the late republicate convention at
Syracuse. The ''hayloft and cheese press
democracy" have been reused from their
slunbers, and they have resolved upon a
gridiron, and that the big Indians of the
"Wigwapn" must be roasted thereon, as a
necessary burnt Offering to an offended
people; and the roasting will surely
come. so says the Herald.

a Timely lesson.

1t is id to be difficult thing for a
woman to get ready to go anywhere.
Aud vet there is nothing she disIkes
more than an animation that she may
possibly mi-z the train. Brayfogle gives
an instance Of this. Mr. BRAY. was to take
the 10 o'cl ,ck train on the Bee line to
visit me FIJI nds in an interior town
Having suffered on previous occasions for
injudicious suggestions, Bray. thought
that for once he would let things take
their natural course. 50 he slipped his
coffee and ate his eggs and toast, while
Madame curled and powdered, and
danced after d ,nce on the looking glass.
and tied bark on the back of her head.
Then Bray. s4t by the stove an hour aud
read the morning paper, while Madame
still continued TO get ready. At last,
just as he reached the final paragraph of
reading matter, and was beginning on
the advertisements, Madame tied her
bonnet stri"gs under her chin, took one
long, ling, ring, loving look at the image
reflected in the gl1ss, and sweetly an
nOUnced
"Well, my dear, Tn ready"
"Ready for what p asked Bray, in well
affected as'onishment
"To go to the depot, to be sure said
Mrs. Brayfogle, tartly.
ooh !! said Bray, I'D forgotten well
Madame" continued he, looking at his
watch, that train has been gone thirteen
minutes. Just keep on your things. and
you'll be ready FIR the train Tomorrow
morning"

THE Boston Wool MARKET.-There
are no new features in the wool market,
save little more Inquiry from manufac-
tnrers, whose supplies are running lower.
We may, however, still be permitted TO
report a quiet market. Holders feel that
the manufacturers will soon run short of
stock and be compelled to resort to them,
when they anticipate more liberal figures.
There is nothing now TO prevent an i'm
mediate resumption of liberal trade, but
for the difference Of views in buyers and
sellers. This difference anicably settled
and large trade may reasonably be ex-
pected. SO say those who would be
thought wise. There are no signs of con-
cession yet. Holders think fine domestic
is low enough now in comparison with
corresponding grades of foreign. Besides,
they paid high for it last summer, which
they think is a valid reason for asking
good prices now. Buyers are paying a
trife higher for what they must have for
immediate use. There is little doing in
the coaryer grades. Good lots of common
and medium command extreme prices.
Pulled is scarce and high. Sales of dc
mestio the past week have been larger
than for several weeks previous-~reaching
500 600 lbs.
