CHOLERA.
The Wheeling Times of the 12th instant states
ttut the cholera had rapidly fallen oft’ in malig
nuv, ami that it had nearly ceased to prevail as
an epidemic. It adds that scarcely a single
dcitli occurred in families where stiict attention
w.i» paid to diet and the premonitory syyptoms.
Qu the 1 Ith there was one death bv cholera.
The little village of Bridgepmt on the Ohio,
immediately opposite the town *»f Wheeling, has
been literally decimated by ti e cholera The
disease wade its appearance there on the 8th in
stant, and out ol a popuiati *n of about two hun
dred persons, twenty two deaths, had occurred
to the »p«ve of two of three days. The appear
ance of the pesti'ence occasioned a general pan
ic and light, and of those who rein lined there
were not enough lei*, in good health, to take care
of the sick. The Wheeling Times say.; —
“ Karlv in the afternoon, ittlt r nation was re
ceived here that several deaths had already oc
culted in Bridgeport, and tha1 the sii k and dying
were without attendance or Medical aid. One
of our physicians and a clergvmaii immediately
crossed over to their assistance. On thrir re

as beyond any they had ever witnessed—seven

ALEXANDRIA, (D. C.)
TUESDAY MORNING, JUNE 18, 1833.
The motion of the District Attorney for the
• issuing of an attachment against J. H. Plea
sants, Esq-, Editor of the Richmond Whig, was
yesterday argued before the Circuit Court at greal
i length, by the District Attorney, F. S. Kf.t,
Esq., and Walter Jones, Esq , on behalf of
' Mr. Pleasants: Present, Judges Thruston and
Morskll. The opinion of the Couit was given
by Judge Thruston, ordering the attachment to
be issued; stating, at the same time, that it was
a subject of much delicacy and doubt—that
he entertained doubts, but that, being called up
on at this time to make up an opinion, he had
so decided. On motion of Mr. Jones, it was
then ordered, that the attachment be accompa
nied with a recital of the grounds on which il
was issued. Toe attachment is made returnabl e
to the Court the first Monday in October, being
the first day of the next term of the Court.
We request attention to the excellent advice
and recommendations of the Board of Health, as
published in to day’s paper. We shall have, by
strictly following the course laid down, compara
tively little or nothing to dread from the disease
against which it is designed to guard our town.
Every citizen ought to take up the matter with a
determination, if possible, to preserve the present
excellent state of public health.
We should have been pleased had the extract
of »* a letter from a gentleman in the neighbor
hood of the District,” published in the Richmond
Whig, ol last Saturday, and on which there are
some comments in the same paper, been publish
ed entire and unmutilated. As it is, the niyste
terioua dashes and asterisks are beyond our
powers of research. Used in the particular con
nexion in which they stand, it would, we think,
have been no mine than fair, to us, to have in
serted the sentence or sentences entire. We
cannot be supposed to know the aim of the writ
er. and hence will not undertake to reply to that
width perhaps was not intended. \V c are un
conscious of having given cause for imputation
on the particular subject referred to, or indeed
on anv other occasion or matter. If any impu
' tatinns are intended, we indignantly cast them
off But we will not suffer ourselves to deal
with shadows. . If this paragraph meets the eye
of the gentleman who vrote the extract publish
ed in the Whig, we should be pleased if he
would let us know the substance ol the suppress
ed sentence or sentences spoken of He certain
lv will not refuse so reasonable a request. Or
¥
cannot the Whig itself inform us what is meant?
We yesterday saw a letter from the venerable
Jvmks Maoisov, expressing, in the warmest
terms, his interest in the American Colonization
Society, and enclosing a donation of Fifty Dol
lars, to be applied to the funds of the Society.
We quoted, last week, from the Pennsylva
nian, the Jackson print in Philadelphia, to show
the wretched and disgusting sycophancy, subser
viency, and adulation, which was inflicted upon
the President during his stay in that city We
add. to day, extracts from the New York Jack
son papers, which even go beyond the Pennsyl
vanian, and exhibit absolutely a blasphemous ido
latiy, which is as hateful as the otlfer was dis
gusting. The first extract below compares tie
neral Jackson's entree into New York, in point
of sublimity, to the great d\y of judgment!
|The seconfi retold vLe.voU.oo. of the people,
in imitating those of old who pressed forward to
our Saviour to touch the hem of his garments—
Ami t*e third absolutely supposes that Heaven
itself interfer'd to greet the President’s arrival.
The New York'Standaid says—
“ Next in our ideas of the moral sublime, to
that great spectacle which “ the just made per
feet’~ will present to nn admiring universe, is the
spectacle presented by the congregation of a free
pie to render spontaneous and uncourted honor
to the great and good, and just, of the rulers
whom such a peopie have exalted. Such a spec
tacle is now being presented,” &c.
The New Yolk Evening Post makes this state
ment—
*• In their ungovernable desire to see the
Chief Magistrate, men did not seem to care for
1 anv hazard. A friend of ours, one of the imme
diate escort of General Jackson, informs us that,
though mounted on a spirited horse, many per
sons did not scruple to run between the legs of
the prancing animal, at the imminent risk ol be
ing trodden down, so that they might grasp the
hand of their beloved President, or even touch the
hem of his garments ”
The Standard also says—
o The day was unclouded—a.soft south-west
ern breeze cooled the air—there was no annoy
ance Irmn dust -and the bright sun shone over
all. as \{Providenceemiled on the occasion which
had made so many hearts happy. ”
And yet these are the men who are styled Re
publicans! “0! Liberty,” exclaimed Madame
Roland, as she was going to the guillotine,
what crimes are committed in thy name!”—
\Ve may well exclaim, in view of what we now
see and hear-O! Republicanism! what gross
subserviency and base man-worahip are not worn
under thy mask!

■ [communicated. J
Mr. Editor:
A singular circumstance of late
Occurred in old Virginia State,
And white I have a moment's leisure.
The truth to you I’ll give with pleasure.
A gentleman (supposed to be)
Did pass this way unknown to me.
But with my friend some days abode,
Also the borrow’d horse he rode.
This stranger-is full six feet tall.
And his true name’s unknown to all:
His eyes are dark, his frock is brown,
And drawn before when he sits down,
To hide his pantatoons from view,
For the? are old and homespun too:
His hat is rather rusty, and
Enveloped in an old crape band:
His neck is in a black stock dress’d:
His vest is black, with double breast:
Hi* shirt may not be worth a dollar,
For 1 saw nothing but the collar:
Wears Calhoun shoes—fine upper leathers:,
—A jack daw like, in peacock’s feathers.
He thinks by art to raise Ins fame—
And now assumes Hob Randolph’s name:
So introduced where’er lie goes;
Hut who he is, there’s no one knows;
Although his honor may be known,
He bears a name that’s not his own.
Which name to him, I must declare,
Can be no honor if he stands fair;—
For ’tia not right, in my belief,
For any man to strike the Chief
Nor to abuse him without cause,
For executing of the Laws.
Weil arm'd he goes, if all be true,
With pistols, guns, and pitchfoiks too.
I have been told, if not mistaken,
He’s much afraid of being taken:
AH public places he now shuns.
And sometimes to the bushes runs.
If this is nothing but a quiz,
And some suppose it really is,
Anil he acts this wav through pretence—
If so—he shows a lack of sense.
Hut if this imposition be
That he from justice here did flee,
To escape the punishment that’s due,
I hope he’ll harbor’d be by lew.
1 know not what the effect may be
In protecting such a man as he.
He now is in Piince William County,
And we wiil take him for a bounty,
And then in Limbo him retain
Until be change Ins name again.
When you, my friend, these lines peruse,
The poetry you will ejuu*e;
Forgive the homely style likewise,
A* lime I have not to revise. Q. Z.
P. S.—The stranger, I hope, will pat don the
crime
Of painting him thus, in something like
rhv me:
Unless he does shoitlj his purpose dis
close,
1*11 write you again and describe him in
prose.

I Painful Intelligence.—We learn with regret
that the brig Ajax, fifteen day* from New Or
leans, bound to Liberia, with nearly one hundred
and fifty emigrants on board, has been compel
led to pat into Key West in distress. She lost
her mate anil two blacks when she had been only
two days out; and the ship carpenter on board re
ported that thirty or forty of the emigrant* died
of cholera, whilst the brig was anchored oft' the i
town. They are said to have been as fine a set ,
of emigrants as ever left this country. One hun
dred of these were from Kentucky—of whom
ninety-six were slaves and had been manumitted
upon condition of their deportation to Monrovia. !
Forty were from Tennessee and the residue from i
Ohio. Among thosp from Kentucky, was a fe
male brought up by Mrs. Wicklifte, whu poses
srd a superior education and gifted mind, and
who was intended for a teacher in Liberia.
The Ajax left Key West on the 16th ult. Tor
her place of destination. Since that time there
had been from ten to fifteen cases in the town,
nine of which had proved fatal, out of a popula
tion of two hundred. No rase had occurred be
tween the 27th ult. and 1st inst. and it waft be
lieved at the latter date that the disease had left
the Key.—N. Y. Com.

Alexandria, June 12, 1833. $
The Board of Health, having entered upon the
discharge of the duties delegated to them, have
to rely much upon the countenance and assist

their labors. Fruitless must their exertions prove .
without tliev are seconded by those who, alike j
with them, have a common interest in the health
of the tow n. So far, it has pleased the Supreme
Uuler of Events to extend to us, this season, an
entire exemption from the dire disease which,
during the last year, swept nearly through the
entire lengih and breadth of the land, and which
is now operating its fatal influence to the West.
Tl..% Rimrd tinlieve. that under the blessing of
Providence, will) a general and strict attention
to the cleanliness of our dwellings and promises,
a watch upon our diet and general habits will en
able u» to ward oft' at least the fatality of, d not
an exemption Irom, the disease which we all
alike dread. They would, therefore, press
upon their fellow citizens—
1st. An immediate cleansing of their entire
premises, and u free use of the Chloride of Lime,
whenever the same m.iy he necessary; the cleans
ing to be repeated regularly every week.
2d. AH offensive matter tp be deposited in the .
centre of the street.
3d. An abstaining from the use of all uniipe
or unsound fruits.
4:li. To heads of families they would be ear
nest in their solicitations to keep upon their chil
dren and servants n strict watch, that they in
dulge not in any diet whtch woulJ be productive
of injurious effects
Thus acting, and every citizen feeling himself
personally bound to come up to the work, we
mav reasonably anticipate a continuance of the
same general good health as that which now ex
ists in the community.
