A. H. SANDERS, EDITOR AND PROPRIETOR. CITY OP EVAHSYILLE: tlESBAY MOK.I3iG, JITLY 9. Death by Cholera Mr. Nicholas Fix, a baker of this place, died yesterday of the Choleia the only death by Cholera of a citizen of Evansville, We have had to reCord this season. His death may prove the means of saving many a life, by the warning it affords others to guard their health, and especially to teach them the danger of permitting ä diarrhu:a to continue a long time without endeavoring to stop it. Mr. Fix was troubled with a diarrhcea for a week previous to hi3 death. On Saturday afternoon it was worse, yet in this condition he drank freely, during the aiternöon, bf ice water and spruce beer, labor ed in his bakery, and to crown all, was soak ed in a shower. During the evening he was taken with symptoms of the Cholera. Med icinc was sent him, but he did not have a phy eitian present till Sunday morning. Mr. Fix was a member of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, and was followed to the grave by his brothers yesterday after noon. He had many friends here to regret Iiis loss. Kunaway Accident. Yesterday morning Dr. Weevcr's horse attached to a buggy in which the Dr. was seated, ranaway on Main street. One rein broke while the horse was going at a furious rate, and the Doctor attempted to climb out of the back part of the buggy. Just as he was getting over the back of the scat, the buggy struck a curb at the corner of Main and First streets, throwing him probably forty feet distant. He struck the ground with his head, and was picked up insensible. There was no great contusion, and we earnestly hope he may not be mortally wounded. lEDuring the last ten days or two weeks, the weather has been warmer in this place than the oldest inhabitants recollect ever having experienced before for so long a time. The thermometor was frequently up to 100, and generally ranged during the day from 92 to 95. The nights have been oppressively warm. On Saturday afternoon we were favored by a heavy shower, follow ed by a deliciously cool evening. But Sun day exhibited the eame oppressively warm tveather, only a little more so. Blessed be the fat folks, for their flesh shall be melted down unto respectability. fjC3A friend of ours, of whom we had thought better, brought up the river with him on Friday last, a large box of fine ripe peach es, which was not very bad in itself, but immediately on his arrival here, he shipped them again down the river, and all for a gal, without even giving a friend here the benefit of a bite. It will take a very nice pressen! of fruit to secure our forgiveness. May he succeed. tCfMr. Teliga publishes his farewell card in to-day's paper. We shall be sorry to see him leave, especially as he has not been received according to his deserts, or to the promises of many of those who induced him to return after his first visit ; and quite as much shall we regret his departure, because vvc have recognized in Mr T. a gentleman of edweation, of fine social qualities, and a mail, who bears upon Jus person scars received in defence -ef his own loved land, Poland. Wherever he may go, Mr. T. will not only wear witn liirn our warm wishes, but a friend's admiration for those generous qualifies of heart and soul, rarely to be met with and therefore the more highly to be appreciated w!en found. If our recommendation may avail, we commend Mr. Teliga as an honest, upright, and intelligent man, and a good artist. JCfAt St. Lou's there is a general complaint relative to the luLhiees of river business. Last week there ivas not a single arrival from Tuesday at 3 o'clock P. M. to Wednesday 10 o'clock A. M., which is almost unprecedented of late years. JCi'Fans are in great demand. There is nota palm leaf to be purchased in Evansville we understand. They are tke best in use. and always popular in summer. ICfThc storm on Saturday afternoon blew down a number of trees about town. But-as it blew up a fine rain, nobody regretted it much. T3Mr. Calvin B. Smith, a merchant of Bowling' Green, Ky., was drowned a start, time since white bathing in Barren River. sty" The Fanny Smith was here on Sunday morning from New Orleans. We thank he clerk for papers of the 1st. " !f"It has been proposed that our cotemporaries' paper be ca'lcd the t;Nocturnal Republic," owing its late appearance every day.

Esq., the "originator'" of Metropolis City, .has arranged with the Mobile and Ohio Co. for tlie "Railroad to terminate at Metropolis, where iCTri1 be connected by a Ferry with the Lake Road, from Chicago. W. M. B. went South on the Oregon, to effect the final arrangement. CfThc steamer Gen. Lafayette on her last trip down, went through the Kentucky Chute of B'i!? Hurricane Island, drawing about seven feet water. This is not custor ary at this stage of water, but from all indications, the best water is new to the left of tlie Island, instead of the right, as it usua'ly has been. A day's work from one of Uncle Sam's snag boats would make this, which 'is now one of the worst places on the river one of the best for boats in low water. tjr Whew ! The weather is utterly too hot to think of writing, and we just intend, until it subsides to something reasonable, to keep quiet, and iT possible, keep cool. It is a piece of arrant humbuggery to attempt to please or instruct, when the only pleasure one can feel himself.is to dream of ice houses aim Greenland, and the only instruction he let Is worth a copper, is some ncav fangled way of keeping cool, when the thermometer ranges about 100. Salt Boats Sunk. liiere was quite a severe storm in the neighborhood of Smithland, on Saturday afternoon. Two flat boats loaded with salt were sunk in sight of Smithland. 1 he officers ol the banny bmitf re port the river full of salt barrels from Hurri cane Island to Cumberland., As a fleet of salt boats passed down a few days since we may reasonabiy expect that several more have been lost.

Twenty-one deaths from Cholera, and seven from other diseases, occurred in Nashville, Tenn., on Friday last up to 4 o'clock, P. M., as we learn by dispatch sent to Paduah. flSanders, ofthe Evansville Journal, is certainly a badly abused man. Among the many charges against him. he is accused of "opposing the ladies." We would suggest to him that the best way to disprove tlie allegation is to lake one of the "jsweet creatures" under his special care and protection What signifies soft words and pretty speeches, when Iiis action contradicts Iiis avowaU ? Should he attempt to avail himself ol thisJ sort of proof, the only danger is he might find the ladies opposing hhn. Boiciing Green Intelligencer. We have taken about a half dozen of the dear creatures under our special protection, but have not yet enticed one into promising to Jove and obey. Indeed we are such a fascinating, and aire, sweet youni man, that we are afraid to coax very hard for fear of that very solt answer, yns, which would most probably come from a very soft source.

LET'IEK FBOM THE JIMOU.

Ci.eve3, Ohio, July 1, 1S50. Deau Senior: This country, on account of the richness of its soil, the beauty and sub farms and villages, the number and worth of its public works, has no equal in the West. Nature has evidently here strewn her useful gifts and ravishing beauties with a most oounteous nanu. in no country vvincn i nave yet seen are the valleys so rich and lovely, the hills so verdant and inviting, the cliffs and cavities so fearful and stupendous, the streams so clear and gentle as here. In short. I believe there is no section of country where a more pleasing exhibition of the loveliness of nature can be seen. Man, having been cast in this Eden, has profited by the munificence scattered around him, and with an active hand is rapidly developing the true wealth bf country, while he is gathering to himself riches the reward of his proper industry. But stick a pin here This morning I stepped on board one of the beautiful packets running theCincinnali and White water Canal, and pa?Tfig the great Tunnel through the North Bend hill, I visited, among other things of note, the tomb and residence of the lamented Harrison. As one among the many great works of art, rendering this part of Ohio profitably no torious, I may enumerate the Tunnel of the Cincinnati and White-water Canal, at North Bend. Its length is 1700 feet, or one third of a mile ; its width, about twenty-five feet. The greatest height of the hill through which it passes is about three hundred and fifty feet above the level of the Ohio. Of the cost o!" this work I can form no correct conclusion hut am of opinion that nearly as great an amount was expended in digging it as was required to construct all the balance of the canal. The arch is a semi-circle in shape. tnd made of lime-stone, brick and mortar. It id rather a frail affair, and in many places lready dangerously broken. The passage is a dark, dismal and damp one, and filled with bats and other car mints of hideous ap pearances and strange songs. In passing through it to-day, 1 realized almost every feeling but that of delight or pleasure. There was nothing at all pleading hi the thought that I was navigating the bowels ol the Earth, possibly to be crushed by a slide of the immense hill above me; and many passengers fcclinr the full terrors of the thought, mechanically, found their way from the deck to the cabin, evidently believing llu ir safety thus all'ccted. The boat made the passage through the Tunnel in the brief space of eight minutes from the time ol enter ing it. Having terminated my subterranean trav els, I was soon thereafter seated on the tomb ofthe 9th President of the United States the tomb of Geo. Wm. II. Harrison ! It is rough affair a vault, nine by twelve feet built of brick and white-washed. The wall are built up some two or three feet above the surface of the ground. A brick arch is the covering, over which droops mournfully the long tall fresh rass. And in this rude charnel house are the bones of the late Gen. Harrison! Shame upon the country! The mound upon which this tomb is situated is one of the most lovely and picturesque I ever saw. Near its base on the South side murmur the passing waters ol the Ohio; gradually rising from its feet on the West and North are the imposing hills called " Congress Green ;" a few hundred yards Eastward is the deceased's last place of residence, and now the residence of his grieved widow. ' A visiter at the grave ofHarruon can lei his eye follow the course of the beautiful Ohio for miles cither East or 'West, and at. one glance he can behold that variety of scenery for which this country alone is distinguished. But I cannot thus dwell. On " Congress Green " is the tomb of that sterling old pioneer. John Clccs Symmes. Resting on bricks around his grave is a rough storm-beaten tdab of free-etonc. on which is chiselled the following short and simple epitaph: Here rest the remains of John Cleves Symmes, who, at the foot of the e hills, made the first set dement between the Miami rivers. Bora on Long Island. State of New York. July 21st, A. D. 1742; died at Cincinnati. February 26th, A.D. 1S11. " Such is the tomb ofthe immortal Symmes. At the foot of the hills, and about one quarter of a mile distant lrom the tomb, are the remains the mouldering walls ofaetonu cellar of the first building of note erected on that immense tract of country lying between the two Miamies, and known as "Symmes' purchase." I am not advised of the exact period of this building's foundation, but presume it was a considerable length of time prior to the landing of the detachment seat by General Hartuar to erect a fort at North Bead, whieli took plaee in the early part of the year 17-39. in the year 1S11, tin's building was destroyed by fire ; and. like the nujmcrous fires of the present day, itvaa "supIn the settlement of the West there were but few men who took a more aciive part inanjonn sieves isyiiuues. Buttew names tn tlie '"Annals ot the Heet" figure more conspicuously than his hence I have been so particular. I hear of extensive preparations being made all around me, for the proper celebra tion ofthe 4th FortHill, near ihe mouth .of; the Great Miami on account of the ruins of the forts which were erected upon it some j time during 177, by Col.

Until then, good-bye. JUNIOR The Inte Fair. Mr. Editor: 1 have been especially requested by the ladies of the Old Presbyterian Church, through your paper to tender their j thanks to all the friends who so liberally aided them at their late Fair, either by personal exertion, tlie contribution of articles, or by their presence during the sale and entertainment. IMiegcncrous " aid and comfort" tendered through the whole occasion, has been gratefully appreciated, and the prayer been uttered that the bounteous giver of all good, will reward them with his richest blessings. The amount cleared, over and above all expenses, will be at least $200. which will be devoted, as far as it will go, to the liquidation of the debt on the church. Gf the many names whose kindness has awakened thankfulness, I have been particularly requested to mention those of Messrs. Ilollingsworth & Hughs. Woolsey & Nelson. Crawford Bell. Jno Shankl n. Dr. Halleck, and by no means to be omitted, yoursell. With great respect. Yours, &c., WM. II. M'CARER. Spcdal Correspondence of the Picayune J Letter from IIavn.ua. Havana. June 27. 1S50. De a it Pic. There is now every reason to suppose that the ships anil prisoners neui here will he riven up to the Government of the United State, in case it reiterates its de mand, backed by an armed lorce. 1 am told the matter has been sharply discussed in council, and Miraol. the Captain General and the Intendant lake the position that they have done their duty and reported to tlie Hume Government, and- that now if a superior force demands the prizes Ihey are not competent to resist. It is said, .the General of Marine opposes these views. He probably considers them his own particular glory, and that to give them up would deprive him of hi just renown. The press here art, doing their best to losler and increase the bail feeling, already too strong to come to any good, toward Amen cans. It takes the bold ground that it is i "war ol races." The JJiario de Uir Marina is copying, wi h appioving remarks, violent articles published in Mexican papers agaii st the Ani!o-Saxon race. and. boldly argues that it is the duty of every Spaniard to oppose by every means in his power the advai.e ; of the United Slates. These intemperate views are well calculated to excite the present illfeeling against Americans, and many of our countrymen here entertain apparently wellgrounded lears '.or their salety in case ot any energetic action on the part ol the Govern ment at Yv ushington. Durinir the past week the excitement against our worthy Consul has been very ijreat indeed, and there have been the most open threats of assassination. From many quarters he has received and still continues to receive Iriendiy warnings, and so nuiner oils were these that he judged it prudent sev eral davs t-ince to request Cant. Lowndes, of the Germantown, to bring his ship into port. The cause of all this was the publication by Mr. Clayton cf a Ltler from the Consul, containing some remarks upon the ollicers of the volunteers, which have been interpreted as reflecting upon them. G-'n. Campbell is not a man to dese.-t his post, but it is not yet certain tir.'.the will not be obliged to take refuge on board one of our ships of war. Mr. Giraud, of whose arrest at Cienfuegos I advised you in my last, has been released, lie was placed in close confinement, aid no communication allowed with him until Mr. McLean, the CjiisuI at Trinidad, went to Cienfugosand obtained his release alter he had been ten days in prison. All his papers and apparel wer-; s-jized uud subjected to the iuosI rigid scrutiny . ".. Another American citizen, Mr. Edmund Doyle, a merchant in Cardenas, has heen arrested on a most frivolous charge. One of his clerks, preparing .over night his fowhngplece for an excursion the i.exi morning, put on the nipple a cap and burst it. This occurring near an open window, frightened the watchman, who immediately gave the alarm, and the house was sun ouuded by some thirty or forty men, the clerk arrested and his arms tied behind liiin, and with Mr. Doyle conducted to prison. This is the more unjust to Mr. Doyle from the fact that he, while Ceruit, the Governor, was a pris )aur in tlie hands ofthe Lopez party, was the only resident in Cardenas that went to speak with him and oner him clothes, money and service. Another vessel of war, the brig l'eiayo, has been added to our fleet. She arrived three days since from Spain. I am told she is one of the new vessels built on the Symonds plan. Her long passage from Ferral, forty-five days, does not seem to attest the success of the Spani.ih builders in adopting the English principle The state of siege s" ill con'naies, and it is not known when it will cease. The cholera, which returned here after tlie subsiding of the excitement caused by the invasion, has very nearly tr amte disappeared. Yours, Pe 'eregkine.

Of licial Itcports ol the EXPEDITION TO CUBA. ""continued. Itcport of Lieut. Col. Kell, of the Louisiana lCegiiuent.

New Orleans, June 26th, 1850. Sir.' I took command ofthe Louisiana battalion when Col. Wheat was wounded, which happened a few moments after he had brought his command under the fire of the enemy on the Plaza, and while gallantly leading it into action. 1 received an order to make an attack on the Governor's Palace . I immedi ately charged upon the palace; officers and privates obeyed my command with alacrity and bravery. We succeeded in breaking open the barricaded doors of the lower part el the building fronting on the main street, but instantly discovered that no entrance above could be effected from that direction. This beinsr communicated to Gen. Lopez, we received orders to retire. After the lapse of some time an order was received to return to the plaza, with instructions not to fire on the buildinr while marching to the pluza. A second time we were met by a discharge ol musketry. I took the responsibility oi reluming the fire, and charged the building; it was then fired at the entrance previously effected by the force under my command. I then surrounded the square containing the Governor's palace, returning the fire tnat constantly proceeded from it, until a Hag of truce was exhibited and the Governor and his troops surrendered. I cannot omit to state that Capt. Robinson's company ol the Kentucky Regiment, reported to me and behaved with great gallantry ; also, Capt. Alizzeli s company from Mississippi, independent. The surrender occurred about S o'clock in the moruinr. The prisoners taken were confined in the barracks under charge of Capt. Steed, ofthe La. Regiment. 1 he town remained quiet during the day. Much apparent kindness was manifested on the part of the citizens towards the troops, who with tho ex ception of those detailed on duty, were passing lrom place to place through the town, in pursuit of rest and refreshment. About 1 o'clock in the evening Gen. Lopez h f rmed Mai. Hawkins, of the Kentucky Regiment, and m)-self that he had determined to change Ins onmnal piau ihat as he had tailed in surprising ihe town of Garden is as he had anticipated, and the lutormation ot our laiui inr beinir carried to Matanzas. there would b3 sent by the Railway train.

I imme diately ordered a portion of my Regiment to proceed to the boat, m charge of the prisoners, the remaining portion of the Regiment be.inT at the boat, engaged in taking on pro visions, coal and water. While neaii ig ihe boat, a severe fire was hcarJ in the neighborhoo 1 of the Plaza. I immediately ordered Capt. Steed on board tlie boat with the pns oners, and proceeded up the street. Gen Lopt-z ordered me to form my command at tlie loot of ihe street, as he anticipated an at tack from a cross-street. I succeeded in ar ranging my men iust in lime to dispatch some d zen lancers, who were making a d(6:ent from a side street. In the morning encounter, some twenty of my command were killed and wounded i o le in the evening. At no time did the force un der my command exceed one hundred and fil tv me l I cannot omit to mention, as among those ol my command, who partuulirfy distiu guished themselves by their gallantry in com bat, the names of Adj'.t Bird, Capts.

A Mr. Hopkins, of Lowndes county, Miss., aged 56, recently married a Miss Mathews, aged 35. What renders this alliance s,i extraordinary is. that both parties are so afflicted with rheumatism, that neither has walked a step in twenty-five year, and the bride is unable to dress or undress herself. : The reaon assigned by Mr. H., for marrying Miss M., is that "some two years ago he married a woman that coufd walk, and she ran off with a -tage driver, and he wanted a wife that he was certain couldn't get off."
