The Asiatic Cholers,

There is, unfortunately, but too good rea-
son for believing that the epidemic Ofcholera
which has for so many months hung about
the Tigris and Euphrates valleys and the in
terror of Mesopotamia has made considerable
inroads into Persia. News of its having
crossed the western boundary of that empire
has been received from time to time. but it Is
now announced in the faculty of MEDICINE Of
Paris that there has been an alarming in.
crease ofth disease in centeral Persia and on
the Turco-Persian frontier. and that the in
habitants are fleeing northward. Those who
can afford the journey are endeavoring to
reach the Russian ports on the Caspian, and,
remembering that this is the route into Eu-
rope which cholera has 50 often taken be
fore, the announcement must be regarded as
one of no little gravity. This is the more so
because the Caspian port towns and fishing
villages have q bad reputation in regard to
those sanitary circumstances which are
known to favor the diffusion Of cholera

Especial New York Letter.1
The arrival home of Nellie BY (the q" world
trotter") within the period of IS days set for
the trip around the world. is big feather in
the hat Of Mr.. Joseph Pulitzer, of the New
York World. This lively paper, which is
never 50 affected by modesty that it neglects
to blow its own horn, will make the most Of
its victory, and will try to make the eyes of
the other editors turn green with envy over
its successfully planned and executed senss-
tod. 1t is usual to allude to the success ofthe
World as phenomenal. and in certain sense
it is, and Mr.. Pulitzer is entitled to all the
credit that can come from great bust

The Due d. Orleans, who reckleSsly
re-entered France to enlist in the army
in the face of the Punishment OF his
family, and all other pretenders to the
throne, was heard yesterday in Paris
and sentenced to two years imprison-
ment. After the sentence the mon
archists present made quite "a demon
stration and twenty-five arrests were
made by the police.
The Cronin jury-bribing case yester-
day was robbed of its interest by the
disappearance of Graham, and the
only sensation Of the trial is likely TO
he that had yesterday when four OF
the accomplices of Graham plead
guilty. They will be heard in miti-

THE JOLIET CONVENTION.

The Joliet Drainage, or anti-Chica-
60 Sewerage, Convention, of the pro-
ccedings of which we gave compre-
hensvc synopsis yesterday, was at
tended by delegates representing all
the Illinois Valley towns from Lock-
port to Peoria; and though the out
come Of its doings is embodied in a
single short resolution, the free and
somewhat extensive talk INDUCED in
was not without interest and deep
significance. The speaking took "A
pretty wide range, and there was oc-
casional conflict of views, but on the
main point, that the flooding of the
Illinois Valley with Chicago sewage
in general, and the erection Of the
proposed pumping works to empty the
south fork Of the Chicago river, with
all the offal from the stock yards,
slaughter houses, etc, into the canal,
in particular, is to be resisted to the
end; by legal means, if possible, but
oayhOu, even if batteries must be
erected on the canal banks.
The failure Of Chicago to comply
with the requirements OF the Mum
resolution of 1881 was, of course, freely
commented upon. That resolution re-
quircd Chicago to erect such pumping
works at Bridgeport as would deliver
80, 600 cubic feet Of Chicago water per
minute in the canal, whereas not half
that quantity has ever been regularly
delivered. 1t was not, as one speaker
said, because they cared about the
quantity of water, for the less Chicago
river water we got the better, that
complaint is made, but because it
showed the utter indifference of Chi
cdgo to her solemn engagements, and
was plain forecast of what might be
expected of her hereafter. In short,
there was no end of the cncroach-
mcntS Chicago was ready to make on
the rights of the Valley, and the only
way was to begin the fight at the first
step and maintain it to triumphant
end
