No bad cuuseqiieiiCt's were developed until about tsuou u iouday ioiiowitig, when almost eve.r out who had been at Uo bail, thuuu scAttered to dilieretit pomls', over at It-at a tuodiidiid square miles td" territory, una emuraenig. suil and louulion ol every variety jjtcuijar to taiJ part ol the JslaSe, was attacked witn fyinptonss ut thu viioi era. 5o iar the nia.laJ , was CDiitiued lu oolortd persons, with the exception ol' a lew whiles, who had assisted in cooking for the ball, or had partaken of the viauus prepared lor it. Almost every .case ter initiated iataSly, generaUy wliithiri 24 houis elier the attack, and invariably characterized by every feature ol genuine Asiatic cholera. For several Uays the tin p r sston obtained that the extraordinary tatalily was the reuk or' poison, administered either through carelessness or design, .amongst the eatables at the ball. This delusion, however, was soun dissipated, and the dreadful reality o! Aiatic cholera, in its most rmtlitiai.t form, was hovering around tiie lo n o! J 8ckson, like an angel of death, forced itself upon everyone, and that doomed community was seized with panic, many of the first inhabitants scattering in every direction, without even taking the precaution to close their doors. ' Among the prominent citiznns who fell victims to the close of last week, and the beginning of the present, miy be mentioned Col. J. W . Russell, Dr. 1). W. Davis, Mr. Limbau h, editor of the Democrat, Mr. Cordell, and several other. Almost every family has lost more or less oi ic members and servants. During the present week,. Jackson has worn every appearance of a deserted village; ' stores, shops, hotels closed proprietors i?onc clerks sick ordead. The back, the post oifice,'- the register and receiver's office, and every office connected with the diilerei.t courts a!i hermetically sealed. In the vicinity of the town, or solar as tlfe infected district has. extended, everything wears the same gloomy aspect. - Crojr ; neglectad. harvest ripe, and wheat uticul and going to dl.-truelion mansions deserted, or what is still more lamentable, the deceased iatn&tes lying for days without sepulture. ro new cases have been reported in the last 24 hours, and it is o be hoped the pestilence has spent its fury, A majority of the ia habitants remaining at Jackson are indisposed, and many in a hopelea& and very pitiable condition some are still Hying from the infection m the diligent directions, and none of the fugitives, who are convalescent, evince a disposition to return. The epidemic id spreading in a north-west direction, toward Apple creek, and some neigtsborhoods have been severely scourged. , i i..

had sof often shared their dangers, led to victory and gained' their admiration by their genius and heroism. The temporary intoxication of delight, the hopes of fame and conquest have diaappeartd with the empty, senseless fetes of May, and the populace and soldiery begin to see the blank and darx despotism to which tSiey are doomed under the rule of the second Napoleon. How long they will bear w'lh it we cannot say; but that it is destined to be swept ' away . as former . despotisms in France have been, we entertain no doubt. The French mind cannot be kept in a state of inactive bondage. French soldiers cannot be always bribed into hostility to their country, to their parents ami brothers. The reaction has already commenced, and unless Louis Napoleon gets up some better attractions than reviews in the Camp de Mars and balls in in the Tuikyies, his power - ,,h1 be of brief duration. .
