Thehb wero 240 deaths from cholera nt INIecca in ono wcuk. Tun Martin Luther celebration at Cincinnati was attended by 4,000 people. iii-i' - " At Lexington to bo n city councilinun ig considered tho first stop Tho old fashioned plan of hanging on to tho coat-tail of some so-called great man, seems to have been abandoned there. Tun water works quarrel at Lexington is likely to bo ended by the Holly company getting tho contract at $20,000 a year guaranteed by thejeity. Tholwater will bo obtained from a sink or well on tho General Preston farm. The works will cost tho compinv about $150,000 Twenty thousand dollars a year would bo 13 per cent on tho capital invested in tho plant. Allowing $3,000'a year for running expenses, the company would make 10 per cent. At tho present day, when sympathy for tho prisoner is an emotion more generally felt than ever before, tho question whether tobacco shall be given to convicts is distracting tho Philadelphia mind. Tho Board of Inspectors of Prison, in that city, recently camo to tho determination to cut off tho tobacco supply. The ground taken was that tobacco is a luxury and that J are not entitled to luxuries. Dr. "Wistar, a leading physician fn that city, advanced the proposition that on tho whole, wero better with than without it. When they were deprived of it their health became impaired. But it is not worth while to inquire whether this impairment was not merely temporary, duo to the sudden withdrawal of stimulus. Tub Philadelphia North American says very good things relating to commerce, trade and tho business condition of tho country, nnd'its ability 1o judge of each and all such features pertaining to tho thrift, peace and prosperity ofthe nation is recognized late issue contains tho following cheerful words: Trade may not have tho volume it hntl at this time a year ago, hut more men stand with their feet on solid ground than could have been counted then. In fact the volume of trade is good, though .profits may not be as larre ns traders like. The seeming ineitiaof stocks may bo taken as a sign that we are at last nearing hard-pan, and if anybody tumbles, he will not have far to fall nor"ill he carry very many with him. We see no good reason why persons who have money to spend should not spend it. How Soldiers are Snludled by PeuMou Agents. A despatch from Washington to the Courier-Journal says: Judgo Ferris, Second Auditor of the Treasury, in his annual report, exposes tho methods by which, soldiers of tho late war and the Government are being swindled by unprincipled attorneys nnd agents. He eays not ono in ten applications for arrears of pay and bounty possess nny . merit, nnd not one in twenty of all these claims is filed upon the suggestion or by tho voluntary action of the claimant. Attorneys seek a client, nnd represent to the uninformed, more generally colored soldiers or their heirs, that they t have not been paid all justly due them ; that some new law, or new construction of tho existing law, entitles them to more bounty, or further pay. A small fee in advance is required, generally $2 or $3 sometimes more; in fact, all that can bo got, with the promise that no more will be dennnded unless tho claim bo allowed. The fee is allowed, tho filed, and in tho end rejected. Tho attorney inroly looks after tho claims. It does not pay. He has received Ids little ndvauce fee, and it pays better to hunt up moro victims. Tho soldiers nro swindled, and after their claims are rejected frequently denounce tho Government and its officers, who simply administer tho law as they find it. Another class of worthless claims is constantly increasing namely, claims for bounties already paid. In many of these cases denials of former payments uro made under oath, when tho records of this office, kept in the highest manner known to tho law and courts, show conclusively that the payments wero mado years ngo. To perjury is sometimes added forgery, and tho timo since tho war increases tho chances of success to perjurers and forgerers. Should these records bo destroyed, and such a calamity is not beyond tho palo of possibility, tho Government will certainly bodefrauded out'of millions of dollars. fONDENSED NEWS.
