great plague that is to be has fallen
across the land. From ST. Peters
burg comes the news that ten per-
sons have died of cholera with the
cessation of the frosts. The Mar

cover up the dead and quiet the
fears of the living, but the worst of
all, as directly affecting America, is
the news from Hamburg In the
suburbs of Altoona a prisoner in Jail
has just died, and five other cases
are being closely watched. The port
Of Hamburg itself has not been al

steamers Egso and Australia four
sailors have been stricken with the
disease. The weather is moderating
all over the continent, and the warm
sunshine is bringing back to life the
cholera germs. Meanwhile, Vienna
is sending invitations to all nations
to attend an international health
congress to formulate some plan of
fighting the common foe, and in

been chartered at northern port
and was expected to arrive at Key
West on the 18th inst. Her hold is
we'll ballasted with cannon, Gatling
guns and field artillery, sufficiently
formidable when in desperate hands
to make way against the Government
of Honduras.

on the 18th, much to the surprise of
every one in the town, and it
is believed that she has been ordered
there to prevent the pirates from
setting sail.
