THE CINCINNATI SOUTHERN BOARD.

To satisfy public desire for information
concerning the long talked of Southern
Railroad from Cincinnati the following
card has been published
OFFICE CINCINNATI SOUTHERN r. r.,
30 w. THIRD STREET,
CINCINNATI, June 6, 1873. J
1t having been stated in some of the
newspapers of the city that the Board of
Trustees of the Cincinnati Southern Rail-
road were divided as to the course to he
pursued, and that there was crisis in the
affairs and as such allegations going abroad
uncontradicted are calculated to iniure the
trust committed to their care, the Board
have directed me to make known that no
such division or crisis has arisen. There
are matters to be ascertained before the
practical question of where and when to
begin work can come up for discussion.
The Board had hoped before this to have
located the road, at least in part, but are
yet unable to do so, in justice to all inter
ests involved. The public can rest assured
that there will be no unnecessary delay.
From inquiries made, the Board of Trus-
tees feel satisfied that when the time comes
for letting there will be sharp competition
for the work, and in case it should be
deemed policy to let the completion of the
entire road to one party with lease, there
will be bids not only from the great rail-
road interests centering here, but from
others. NJ. GREENWOOD,
President Board of Trustees, Cincinnati
Southern Railroad.

FROM NASHVILLE.
Full Details of the Cholera Ravages Up TO
Monday Night.

The Nashville Banner gives the most
intelligent information as to the situation
at that place, and we extract from il as fol-
lows:
The Banner says the sudden change in
the weather-wet and cool, was unfavora-
ble to the cholera.
There was quite an exodus of people
from the city Sunday, and every train
went out full of passengers. Extra cars
had to be attached to most of the trains to
admit of the transportation of all desiring
TO go.
There are many who will persist in eat
ing vegetables against all the protests Of
fered by physicians, and the much more
forcible protest of death, which so often
follows the eating of rank vegetables.
One of our prominent physicians seeing
a lady coming from the market Saturday,
with basket full of vegetables, laughingly
asked her when she would invite him to
her funeral. She laughingly replied, point
ing to the vegetables, "Oh, these won't
hurt me-" She never saw another sun
rise. These are practical illustrations of a
fatal hardihood. They pursue course of
= utter recklessness and step into the boun-
diaries of another world.
NO FISH ALLOWED IN MARKET.
Superintendent Thomas, with his char
acteristic love for the public veal, has pro-
hibited the shipment of fish over the
Nashville and Chattanooga and st. Louis
Railway. The eating of fish, has brought
about the same fatal results as the eating OF
vegetables. They are bad, very bad for the
stomach, because we obtain no fish that
have not begun to decompose by the time
they have been shipped long distances.
A letter from Lebanon dated on Sunday
was received here yesterday, announcing
the death from cholera of one person al
that place on Saturday night, and tha
there was one other case. 1t was reported
here yesterday by Wilson county men
that ten deaths had resulted at that place
between Saturday and Sunday night.
Rufus Waller, son of a penitentiary
guard, died of cholera yesterday morning
A convict was taken with the disease
daybreak, and died at IL o'clock.
The penitentiary officials have dom
everything possible by way of disinfectinl
the prison to preserve the health OF tn
convicts.
The lessees rendered fifty convicts to tn
Mayor, free of charge, to be employed as
scavanger force. This is certainly an offe
deserving of the highest commentator
Our citizens will warmly appreciate it.

Women as Laborers-'Tending MasOns fin
yienus.

&c. c. Fulton in Baltimore Americana
/ have before alluded to the fact that wo-
men perform the hardest kind of laboring
work in Germany, but was not prepared
for the sights / have witnessed to-day in
Vienna. In America mixing mortar and
carrying the hod is considered such hard
work that few white men can be found will
ing to undertake it at the present day. An
immense building near the hotel, occupy
ing whole block, is in course of erection,
on which not less than four hundred per-
sons are employed. fully two hundred of
whom are women. All the hard laboring
work is done by woman, such as making
and carrying mortar in buckets on their
heads to the workmen handling the brick.
They are not allowed moments leisure,
several overseers being on guard to keep
them constantly in motion. We found the
same proportion of women at work on all
the new buildings, and there must be many
thousands of them to-day doing this
species of laboring work in Vienna. They
are both young, middle-aged, and old, but
all seem to be strong and healthy. At din
ner time they swarm into the shops to
purchase a piece of brown bread and fat
bacon and mug Of beer, and eat their
dinner sitting on the curbstones. Their
wages is one form, or forty-eight cents
per day, and am assured by gentleman
resident here, that most of them sleep
about the buildings on shayings, or in
barns or sheds, having no homes.

NASHVILLE, June 10.-The excitement
about cholera is abating. The weather
has turned unusually cool, and, contrary
to the expectations of physicians, the pre-
vailing sickness shows fewer and lighter
cases. Very few, if any, of the cases have
proven fatal in the past few days where
medical aid was promptly summoned.

MEMPHIS, June 10.-The cholera is I'M
doubtedly increasing. There were eighteen
interments to-day against eleven yester-
day, while the undertakers had received
orders at o'clock tonight for fourteen
burials tomorrow. The weather continues
cloudy and sultry. Hon. Jacob Thomp-
son, Secretary of the Interior under Presi-

gerously i'll with cholera.
MEMPHIS, June 1.-THE most severe
rain and thunder storm ever known here

In an hour and half two hundred and
seventy inches of rain had fallen. 1t is
feared that great damage has been done to

try, but the sanitary condition is greatly
improved.

The postoffice and the office of The Wing
and Tribune and other buildings at Jackson,
Tenn, were burned Saturday Loss from
$4,000 to 100000, with but little insur-
ance.
The original capital stock Of the Brook
lyn trust company was $500,OO0, which
has all been absorbed. There are $780,
600 of worthless bonds. Mills defaulted
for between one and two hundred thousand
dollars Rodman, the secretary, borrowed
$34 900. The prospect of depositors real-
zing anything is slim. There is evidence
that Mills, the president, conscious of his
losses, had made an arrangement with a
capitalist to loan him funds to supply his
deficiency, but drowned himself on the day
the arrangement was to have been per-
fected. One Lowe, vice-president, hav-
drew attention to the company's affairs.
An investigation proposed at that time
was postponed through Mills efforts, as
sisted by Rodman. Finally neither Mills
nor Rodman replaced the money taken by
them Mills drowned himself, and Rod
man confessed everything. He pretends
to have demonstrated with Mills when the
irregularities first commenced, who inva.
riably directed him to dry up. The de-
ceased, Mills, loaned much money on
doubtful security. including that fingered
by himself.
One of II. H. Weldy & Co.'s powder
mills, near Tamaqua, Pennsylvania, was
blown up and destroyed Monday. Samuel
Miller, resident of Tamaqua, was in-
stantly killed. The shock was severe and
felt several miles from the mills.
Giovanni Glione, an Italian padrone, has
been arrested in New Haven for holding
four italian children in a den, supporting
himself on their earnings as musicians and
bootblacks. He has beaten some Of them
severely. Complaints have been filed
against him for holding free persons in
servitude in violation Of provisional liberty
act of 1854. The cases were continued
until the 23d instant, and the prisoner put
under bonds of 81 900 in each complaint.
The Italian residents of this city are taking
an interest in the details, and believe this
will lead to a thorough investigation Of the
right of these padrones to hold children in
a..state of virtual slavery.
Attorney-General Williams has received

Sensational.

The statement that General Escobedo
is marching on our Texan border, bears
every impress of truth, and is to be
accepted as semi-oflicial. The rumor of an
engagement undoubtedly had its origin in
the fact ofthis movement of Mexican forces.
The object is plainly to retaliate for the
Mackenzie raid and to square accounts for
the invasion of Mexican territory by our
forces. When it is remembered that the
Mexican Government has preserved a
suspicious silence on the subject of
Colonel MacKenzie's movement, the
suggestion naturally arises that a
similar raid may have been inaugu.
rated in the spirit of revenge. 1t is more
than probable, however, that Escobedo has
organized a band of ruffians and maraud-
ers, all of them actuated, like himself,
with intense hatred against the United
States, for the purpose of plumber. 1t is
well known by those acquainted with the
character of the vagabond Mexicans who
live along the shores of the Rio Grande
that such an organization is quite possible,
and that Escobedo is just the man to lead

subjected to the attacks of the gad. d.fy.
Tar their noses, and tar the troughs in which
salt is sprinkled. 1t keeps off this fly,
which lays its eggs in the nostrils of the

when hatched, destroy the animal before
any curative or corrective can be applied.
Remember, too, that at this time of the
year, dogs are rarely fed by their owners,
there is less for them to pick up, as less
meat is used in households, when fruits and
vegetables are abundant, and dogs get lean
and hungry. Then look well to your sheep,
and put out of the way forever any sus-
picious cur you find lurking about your
field or premises.

The Politician ana the Statesman.

The Politician and the statesman.
The difference between the statesman
and the politician is radical. The politi-
clan seeks to shape events with view to
personal success. He sees everything in
the light of his own aggrandizement. He
IS averse to new ideas and experiments,
lest combinations may be made too strong
or too subtle for him to control. His hori-
zon is bounded by his clique, and he re.
CARDS with favor only what is likely to
strengthen it, and thus serve himself.
The statesman chooses as his objective
the welfare of the whole people. Wide
and various interests ere to be considered,
harmonized, and made prosperous. He
may be as selfish as the politician, but
he has learned that the good of the indi-
vidual can only be certainly secured in
harmony with the welfare of the many.
And SO looking over vast areas of space
and through centuries of time he seeks to
organize the social forces in the sacred
interest of order, intelligence and liberty.
We have plenty of politicians, but
alas !! how few statesmen. Virginia, in
her palmy days, was prolific of genuine
statemen. She has her fair share now.
But they are not those who control her des-
times. Our hope of her future is that her
young men will study as models her WASH
ington, her Mason, and her Jefferson
model statesmen of Virginia-rather than
the clap-trap politicians who now infest
her borders and disgrace great ancestry by
their narrow-minded bigotry and lttleness
of soul. There are cheering signs Of
progress in the impatience Of the people
with their condition and their contemptu-
Gus rejection Of the small politicians who
assume to be their leaders.
