CHOLERA IN DAMIETTA.-The
Continental press continues to dis
cuss, with great bitterness, the re-
sponsibility of England for the
presence of the disease in Egypt,
and for its progress there, and with
much reason. For some months
the stencil of Damietta has been
apparent at distance of ten miles.
The water supply has for the same
period been putrid with carcases of
diseased cattle, and when the chol-
era broke out, the remedy applied
by English experience and human
ity was to draw a Gordon around
the town and imprison its inhabi-
tants. There are three or four ma
tive doctors among them, and they
are absolutely without sanitary re-
sources or means of any kind to
cope with the plague. The coop
ed up inhabitants are dying at the
rate of one hundred and twenty o
day. The disease is confined to
Damietta and the excitement at
other points has abated.
THE LOTTERIES MUST COPY a
decision rendered last Saturday by
Postmaster General Gresham, the
death blow has been given to all
lottery schemes, including the no.
torious Louisiana swindle, advertis-
ed by our neighbors. Hereafter
they will not be allowed the use Of
the mails, and letters or money sent
will not be delivered by the post
masters.
The WAY IS CLEAR. - The mist
hanging over the question of con-
stitutional amendments in Ohio
has been cleared away. The decis-
ion of the Supreme Court of Ohio
declaring the Scott tax law to be
constitutional does away IN toto
with the necessity for the first
proposition to amend the constitu-
ton, about which many temper
ance people were befogged. The
way is clear. Let ceaseless and de-
termined efforts be made to secure
the adoption alone of the prohibit
ton amendment Telescope.

Temperance 4th in Belpre, Ohio.

Quite crowd of the friends of
Temperance and prohibition con-
vened in Howe's Grove near Belpre
to talk and work for the prohibi-
ton amendment to be voted on
next October.
In the forenoon the programme
began with a religious opening of
the exercises of the day by Rev. j.
w. Carter, d. d., of Parkersburg,
who led in prayer There was mu-
sic by the choir, the reading of the
Declaration of Independence by Mr..
A. G. Glazier, and then a good So
cial chat engaged in by all till after
dinner, (Which was served on the
ground in abundance.) Dinner en-
joyed, three prohibition addresses
were made. The first was by Rev.
G. w. Burns of Marietta. 1t had the
right ring. Brother Burns is sound
as dollar on prohibition.
The next was by Hon. w. P.
Cutler OF Marietta. His speech
was also good. He reviewed the
tenn perance agitation in Ohio from
its beginning down to the present
time. He ably handled the ques-
tions of Personal Rights and Sumpt-
uary Legislation and showed that
they could have no place rightful-
ly in the present struggle to over
throw the liquor traffic. Mr.. Cut
Ter is logical and states his argu-
ment with much force.
The last address was made by
DR.. Carter. He said, after listen
ing to the other speakers who had
viewed almost every phase of the
question, he had concluded to
make no speech, but after the old
Methodist fashion to exhort Il little.
This he did in his characteristic
style. During the exhortation he
aimed some telling blows at the
Democracy of Ohio. About the
close of his address a seat in the au-
dience gave way and number Of
persons were thrown upon the
ground, whereupon the Doctor con-
cuded he must be making a weigh
ty speech. Every thing passed off
quietly and satisfactorily. Judg.
ing from conversations overheard
as we passed around, the whole Bel
pre- neighborhood is for prohibition.
Assisted by Rev. J. H. Spence Of
Parkersburg, we put in some good
work for the FREEMAN and let them
know we have red hot prohibi
ton paper in West Virginia.

Whisky Troubles.

New York, July 6.-1he whis-
ky exporters have been thrown in
to state of excitement by the de-
cision of the Attorney General, as
submitted to the Secretary of the
Treasury, to the effect that the ex-
portation of bonded whisky to Ber-
muda, with a view to its reimp or-
tation. for the purpose of evading
the payment of the tax, is not an
expectation according to the mean
ing of the Jaw. Expectations made
in good faith will not be interfered
with, but when the whisky is sent
out of the country simply in order
to postpone the payment of the
taxes, the practice will not be al
lowed.

SUNDAY EASY CHAIR.
The Sabbath Bells

The old man sits in his easy chair,
And his ear has caught the ringing
OF many church bell far and near,
Their own sweet music singing.
And his head sinks low on his aged breast,
While his thoughts far back are reaching
To the Sabbath morn of his boyish days,
And mothers sacred teaching.
A few years later, and, 10, the bells
A merrier strain were pealing,
Aud heavenward nor5the marriage vow
Which his manhood's Joy was sealing.
But the old mans eyes were dimmiug now,
as memory holds before him
The sad, sad picture of later years,
When the tide of grief rolled DER him.
When the bells were tolling for loved ones gene
For the wife, for the sons and daughters,
Who, one by one, from his home went out,
Aud down into deaths dark waters.
Pu. the aged heart has still one joy
Which his old life daily blesses,
And his eyes grow bright and his pulses warm
Meath grandchild's sweet earesses.
But the old man wakes from his reverie,
And his dear old face is smiling,
While the child with the serious eyes reads on,
The Sabbath hours beguiling.
All, the bells once more will ring for him,
When the heavenly hand shall sever
The cord Of life, and his freed soul flies
To dwell with his own forever.

enue the mass of common people hold their
sway, although the spirit of caste is less
noticeable in Vienna than in most capitals
OF Europe, and high-placed persons do not
disdain to mingle with the common people.
Between the principal avenue and the So
called Fireworks square is the "Wuer-
stelprater," the favorite pleasure ground of
the middle class and ordinary people.
Here are numbers of taverns, concert and

LIFE IN VIENNA
Is very gay festivities in winter are OF
frequent occurrence. Strangers feel at
home and do not meet with any national
prejudice on the part of the inhabitants,
who are pleasure.seeking and liberal
minded people. There is something of the
chevalresque politeness of the Spaniards
in their manners. For instance, the ordin-
airy salutation in good society is /" [ kiss
your hand, sir" or madam. Their gaiety is
somewhat noisy and boisterous, but polite
and not unbecoming. Besides the German
element, which is in the large majority,
the different races of which the Austrian
Empire is composed, are also represented.
The Czechs, Slavonians, Hungarians, Kro-
ates, Poles, Dalmatians, Armenians and
AlbaniGns mingle their picturesque costumes
with those OF the Germans at Vienna.

RooFING LNEN.-A new covering mate
rial, called roofing hnen," has recently
been introduced in Germany, which is
about the thickness of common pasteboard.
and consists of a layer of coarse linen be-
tween two layers of thin roll. paper. The
cohesion of the three layers is effected by
an asphalt composition of special make,
called "roofng paint" 1t is stated that
this paint should be freely applied to roofs
Immediately after their completion, and
again about six weeks afterwards. This
operation should, it would seem, be re-
peated every few years. The linen costs
about lOd to lid per square yard, and the
paint los to lis per cwt. Although this
new method appears to have points which
deserve commendstion, real estimate Of
its value cannot be formed until the mate
rial has been exposed to the test of several
years USE Scientific Press.

imagine he was on six-dsy go as-you-
please walking match instead of setting
type. he cannot sit at the case as cur
printers do, but must constantly travel
from one case to another, as the characters
needed are so numerous and they cover so
much space that it is impossible to keep
them in anything like the room required
for the ordinary case. In setting up a
piece of copy the Chinese printer will
waltz up and down the room for few
moments, and then go down stairs for a
line Of lower case. Then he takes the
elevator and goes up in the third story
after some caps, and then out on the wood
shed after some astonishers. Intelligence
in his case is not SO much a requisite as
being good pedestrian. Il Pacific Printer.
