Monday Night.

The Bonner says the sudden chanie in
BILE 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 CO. -bse7'.sR siggess bss s5s.ggig ..s.sq s.
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
lady coming from the market Saturday,
with.a basket full of vegetables, laughingly
asked her when she would invite him to
her funeral. She laughingly replied, point
ing to the vegetables, ooh, these won't
hurt me-" She never saw another sun
rise. These are practical illustrations of a
fatal hardihood. They pursue course of
daries of another world. 81
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 at
that place on Saturday night, and that
there was one other case. 1t was reported
here yesterday by Wilson county men,
between Saturday and Sunday night.
Rufus Waller, son of a penitentiary
guard, died of cholera yesterday morning.
A convict was taken with the disease at
daybreak, and died at II o'clock.
The penitentiary officials have done
everything possible by way of disinfecting
the prison to preserve the health of the
convicts.
The lessees rendered fifty convicts to the
Mayor, free of charge, to be employed as a
scavanger force. This is certainly an offer
deserving of the highest commentator.
Our citizens will warmly appreciate it.
