he listened to his friend,- At. last; striking his fist
_
on,the table, he exclaimed in a tone of thunder,—
Yee! and - I'll be d—d if I don't draw him up in

he struck - off the follavving note:

"That's the way to talk; you're a man of the
right stripe ; I like toplay with such, a fellow—
,
so lwre.goeS.'
. -
And drawing a large red morocco pocket book
out of his bosom; hebegan to count down one
thousand dollar bills: It was not longruitil he htui
La Ronde 's note covered and bettered. His funds
appeared to ineshausiible, Ls. Ronde turned
pale at the sight, and the company was closely
engeged observing the Mississippian. The kaki
der, to whom we have already referred, seen at- a
glance that these notes were counterfeited and
spurious; and taking advantage of the moment,
he slipped HenryLa Ronde's. papers from the Itr
ine, and' made his exit unnoticed.
When Tarlton cOnclnded his counting from the
first mentioned pocket book, he drew forth another.
Henry La Ronde saw at once that it was useless
to think of defe n ating him; 'sole cast his cards on
the . table, arose and muttered,—" It's dd queer ;
but perhaps it's 'all right—l yield the game.' ,
Tarlton insisted nu him redeetriing his pledge, and
betting the remainder of - his intended's inheritance
-bathe would not; and the game closed. Upon
examination, it was found that La Ronde's papers
were missing. Suspicion was at once fi xed upon .
•
Henry'by his antagonist; and drawing a pistol
from his pocket, he cocked it, and preieuting the
.
muzzle to .his " head, demanded the immediate re
storation of the'papers-7-threatening to blow out
his brains in case he refused.- Henry stoutly
maintained that he was ignorant in regard to them
—and Simpson taking hold of the pistol, removed
• the muzzle,- saying 'that he Would search for them.
After "it long and diligent, but fruitless- smirch;
they gave 'them np as lost. One of the:kir:4 ,
called to .his recollection the presence of the min
wearing the Spanish cloak ; and all agreed that
he must have removed them. The thundering of
the drays, as they rolled along the'streets,_and the
heavy footfalis'ok the honest mechanic, as he wend

that it-was time to separate.

Cheering Prospects or the Democracy.
We_yesterday had the pleasure of receiving visits
from a number ofDelegates to the Democratic State
Convention, from various portions of the State.
Without exception they all speak in most encour
aging language of the cheering prospects of the De
mocracy throughout Pennsylvania. The Tayloo.no

every where; and there is an enthaaiastic desire to
wipe out the stain which now rests upon the fair'

the State Convention, which assembles in this city
tomorrow nominatesa popular Democrat for Canal
Commissioner, his election by a majority of at least ,.
20,000, is aocertain:as any future event can" be .
Letnnion and harmony characteriae tbe deliberatiotis'
of that body, and good results will unquestionably'
follow. The Federal party know that their days are
numbered, and they fear and tremble. Friends!
cheer up—cheer up ! The clouds of defeat have
passed away—a glorious sunshine now gladdens
every Democratic -heart.

L.lismeen, Bea .—For sonte'days past I perceive
in your columns a discussion relative bathe alledged
interference of e.ffenteophatic Doctor, in the treat
ment of a Cholera patient its the Hospital. With the
merits.of this controversy it is not my purpose to
interfere or express any opinion. But trout this dia.
carrion, as well 'as frotn a communication . which
recently sate in the Piitsburgh Gazette, it is evi
dent-that thellomeophatists are anxious to press
upon, public notice their theory of the treatment of
Cholera ; and that too, {as far attic writer is aware)
while they keep the public in ignorance of wiat their
their theory is or wherein it differs from the treat- ,
meat of the old fashioned and old experienced
physicians. Now, as the old Docters make no seem
of their treatment of this disease, or any ether din
disease, I think it due to an intelligent public, before
they place confidence in these new comers and their
high pretensions, that they should make theittheory
and their practice in this disease known. Let your
Homeophatic correspondent--or any of his disci
ples—publish in your columns his prescriptions and
his treatment of Cholera in all its stages. r feel
confident it will not be uninteresting to your nu
merous readers; and, if l it is founded upon rational
and scientifi‘principles, he may rely upon its prov
ing a speedy and successful introductive to an intel
ligent public. But, if he insists that his theory
consists of some grand secret which no one else in
the world is capable of understanding or appreciti.
ting..—which moat be kept secret in order to preserve
its efficacy; while he ant! his colleagues fling such
arrogiiit epithets as " filthy drugs," at old Physi
cians, and their prescriptions. They may justly
retort upon him with the old schoolnaan , s proverb :
" Young folks think old folks to be fools—but old
folks know rung folks to be fools." And if they
refuse that deference to the public, which is accorded
by old experienced, well known and well tried
Physicians, the intelligent and discerning part of
that public, ought to place them and their high pro
tensions upon the same category to which Burns
consigned Dr. Hornbrooks :

of the
Post a prescription and directions—purporting Lobo
from aci,rold.P.bytician and planter from the Bondi--
as a preventive of Cholera—which, if literally fol
lowed, filled and taken, among the members of a
moderately large family would prove I have no
'doubt a very certain protection against an attack of
that disease. For they would most likely ail die
before Cholera could have an opportunity of making
their acquaintance. There is some mistake—in

The Intelligencer Clique Triumphant.
The RePtiblic was established here under the coun
tenance and patronage of Gen. Taylor himself, to
vindicate such principles as be has, and to support
his administration. Its proprietors, in consideration
Of the relation in which the paper stands to the Gen
eral, and the 'services which it would render, ex.
peeled, to receive a good share of. the patronage of
the administration for themselves and friends, in ad.
vertising, offices, and emoluments. They expected
that they should, of.course, have their share of the
offices to be bestowed in this District; and hence
they put forward their candidrite--Mr. Jacob Gideon,
as we understand—foitbiti office of city postmaster.
The Int elligencees candidate was Win. A Bradley,
Esq. The Intelligencer triumphed, and the Republic
was defeated. Again: we are informed that both
the district attorney
-and marshal!, Messrs. Fennell
and Wallach, are friends of the Intelligcn:er, and
devoted to its interests and against the Republic.—
And all these appointees are ultra Clay whip. Ver
ily, General Taylor has not power enough In the cab.
inet to save his beat friends. Perhaps ho will con
sole them as he has others of his friends who have
been' disappointed in their expectations of office,
that he voted for them in the cabinet, but was voted
down by the majority. We are sorry for our neigh
bors of the Republic. It is 'not the entertainment
to which they were invited. We will do all we can
to console them by venturing the prediction that the
Intelligencer clique will outwit them in everything.
If they turn their wistful eyes towards Congress, they
will find the old stagers of the Intelligencer will be,
there before them; and they will be forced to nc.
knowledge, what is apparent to everybody else, that
the National Intelligencer represents the bulk and ,
bottom ofgenuine old whiggery, and it will triumph
over the schemes of all neophytes and whig parve
nues.--Washington Union. .

The city of St. Louis is at the present time more

Nor is there any reason to believe that the fearful

from ten cemeteries of the city, are reported, from
cholera alone. The other two cemeteries would
swell the list, dauntless, to over' one hundred, if
they had reported. The billa of mortality for this

St. Louts Union, June 23d.
Sir The above certainly presents a frightful pic
ture of the ravages of "the Cholera in St. Louis.
Oyer seven hundred deaths in one week, in'a popula=
tion of about 63,000 souls. Should the malady con
tinue for a year, at the same rate, ono half the pop- 1
alation of that great city would-be swept away.
Awful thought!
The Mobile Register and Journal, in the course
of a rowing up of tteory Clay and Thomas H. Benton
for alleged treachery to tha South, observes:—
"It must be confessed, that the, doctrine of Free.
Sadism and Anti-Slavery have, during the past year,
spread most fealfully among thelaatties at the North,
and are beginning to preponderate over all other po
litical considerations. It is unfair to tonsure the
Democrats of that section, forithis--for they alone
have stood up at any time in defence of our rights,
or given any obstruction to the - Career of our ene•
mies. That they now desert us is owing to the fact,
that we have been unfaithful to ourselves—that one
half of the slave-holding States, in the last Presiden
tial elections, cast their suffrages , in opposition to
the only candidate—a Northern Democrat, too—who
was pledged to vete the Wilmot Proeiso, and use the
in f luence qf the Prisidetisclt against Free-Sof:ism:,
Tim Stratums AND ME CHOLERA.—The Lebanon
(O.) Star, in mentioning a fatal case of cholera,
makes the following statement:
L'lt is a fact' worthy of remark', that in ,the seven
teen villages- of Shakers, dispersed in different
States of the Union, there has never been(eswe are
credibly informed) a singie case of Cholera -origlna.

ROME.—The Evening Post had a letter from an
American at Rome, which says
"The people are unanimous in favor of the repub
lic, except the priests, Who of course are desirous
that the Pope should return, with- all his temporal

'The southern part of Sweden was tormerly called
Srandin, and hence the general term applied to all
there.countries. They hare attained a much high
er state of civilization than Russia, and instead of
being Asiatic in their manners, they are thorough
ly Europeanized. They .were formerlyall united

and Sweden and Norway.tanited. Denmark;con
tains about 12,000 equate miles, and - 2,000 4 000 of,
inhabitants, who are among the most:civiliied peo
ple in Europe. It consists of two parts; Jutland;
a peninsulti, 'which forms the most northern part,
and which is'a sandy, poor ceuntry, abounding : in
bays and lakes;'_ south of this is the Duchy of
Schleswig, and south of this is Holstein, with_ the
smell ,Duchy of Latienbnrg. • These lerm the first

• second part •is cothposedrofislande in the Baltic.

are- very fertile, and are cultivated like a garden.
Holstein' was conquered from, Germany * and - now
occupies the - anomalous position of a subject to
Denmark, and a member: of the Garrtiart:Confed
elation, to whose Diet.she 'sends :a repiesentative.
About' a year . ago she became involved in a war
With Denmark, and called Germany to her - aid,
who sent'an army against the Danes, with whom
there were neural battlia fought . ; The difficulty
has not yet been - settled and the war will probe:
bly., be resumed. Denmark is s a fine countrY for
cattle and horses, and the productions of the dairy
cheese, butter, etc., are excellent. The people
live in villages, and the housen are built with low
walls and high-pointed roofs, covered with. tiles.
The people are Protestants; with Lutheran doe-
Woes, and the Episcopal form of.wership. As a -
whole, they are agreeable and accomplished. -'Ed.

Norway and Sweden are entirely different coun
ties. They are separated hydra Dotrafield moun-.
sine, and Norway is very rugged:_and mountain
ous throughout It la a. miserably poor country,
and Sweden Svtedenisnot much better. _The west coast
of Norway, bounded by the AtlantieOcean, is in
-dented by nurnerousbeysorflords, and along which
I are scattered: number eternal! villages, inhabited
almost entirely by fishermen. Steamers now, run
round the coast from" Christiana; the capital, to the
North Cape. touching at the principal towns.—
Sweden has thimmillions'anda quarter of inhabi
tants. it is clear from observations which have
been made, that these countries are rising from
sea, at the rate of five or six feet in a century.--
There are numerous whirlpools , along the coast of
Norway, three, of which are famous. They are
known as Maelstroms, and though they are often
represented as dangerous; I suppose that our stea-
mers would ride over any of them with perfect
impunity. The roads are notgood,except in sum
mer time, and in many;: Cases not then. In the
southern part of Sweden,,a complete line of com
munication is established across the country by ,
means of canals. In the northern . part, when grain
is scarce, they make brerid out of a mixture of two
thirds flour and one-third pine bark: - As they bake
their bread but twice a year, this becomes some
what hard, as you may, judge. In the northern
part of the kingdomohere are abciut ten thousand
Laplanders who lead roving lives. Their wealth
is in their reindeer, of which animal soine of them
have thousands, and who determine their owners
entirely in their place of abode. A large body of
these animals sometimes start and proceed twenty
mike, and their owners ire under the necessity of
packing their tents and following. A school has
been established further south, on the Gulf of Bo
thnia, for the children of these people, but! think
more good might have been effected by missiona
ries among the parents. There are another kind .
'of Laplanders, who live along the coast in villa.
gee, and subsist on fishing. '
Sweden and Norway are Protestant countries,
and it is only lately that toleratioribas been allow
ed. The children are taken into the , church at the
r age et' fteen .or sixteen, 'and they are required to
be able to read at that time. This knowledge they
get from their parents, as, schools are very seldom
seen. ' They are now, however, about establishing
a school system in Sweden. There anis, and still
is a class of teachers who have a circuit, in which
they travel, teaching - a month in one part and a

until it has been - heard before in a court of recon

the parties and adjust the difficulty, and he frequent

The only city worthy 'of notice in Sweden, is
Stockholtb, which is situated chiefly on islands on
lake Maier, near its junction with the Baltic sea.
It is the capital of the Kingdom, contains the roy

very picturesque, and this city is the residence of
the celebrated writer, Fredrika Bremer.
Theta is a great variety of dress in Sweden; but
in the large cities it is similar to our own. The
Swedes have some peculiar customs, and many of
them are beautiful. At a dinner where there are
invited guests, as soon as it is over, they go into
the parlor, where the lady of the house stands, and
they kiss her hand. The marriages, are also curie'
ous; they take place in the church, and after the
ceremony is over, the newly monied couple are
required to stand in the Street Tor the people to
look at, and to receive the congratulations of their
friends. This is sometimes iverl fatiguing, and es
pecially annoying to the; bridagroorn. In the
large cities, where parties are wealthy, instead of
standing in the street, they throw open the house,
where every one is free to enter.—Dr. Bards Lee.

Butner..—One of the most inhuman acts of brawl_
lty we have heard for a long time, was related to us
-yesterday. A man, residing in Westmoreland coun
ty, who had been down the river, took passage on
the Philadelphia packet for Freeport on Thursday
night last. Before reaching Freeport ho had a slight
attack of Cholera, and the Captain of the packet be..
coming alarmed; landed him on the .
towing path. The poor fellow managed_ to crawl to
Freeport and gain admittance into a Tavern close
by the - Lock, but as soon as the landlord learned
what was the matter with him, he ahoved him, dy
ing, into - the streets, where he was permitted to lay
for some time, suffering all the agonies of the last
stage& of this most terrible disease. Mr. Scam
HANEY, the gentlemanly landlord of the Allegheny
House, having more of the g , Milk of human kind
ness" in his breast than any of the other inhabitants
of that village, bad the man bouveyed into his hease,
where every attention was paid to him,' but hedied
a short time after. The humane canal boat captain,
and the haspitabk landlord who drove the , dylagman
oat of his house to die in the' treets, should both be
remembered by the charitable. -
P. S. Since the above was in type,-We have made
moreparticularenquiry in regard to the - abOve state
ment, and find them to be in every particular cor
rect,—and more, before the dying roan was taken to
!beAllegheny House, he asked permission from an
other landlord if he could come in and have caro ta
ken of him, but be utterly refused him, and sent the
poor man out in the streets to die. We would say
to the traveling public, beware of these humane
landlords.
