A Village for Sale.
The Sheriff advertises for sale tbo en
tire village of Malaga, in Cumberland Co.,
N.J. It consists of more than 5,000 a
ercs of land, with glass works, mills, and
forty dwelling houses. The village ex
hibit a sceue of desolation and abandon
ment so complete and thorough as to be
rarely exceeded. All this fine -property
will pass away from the Industrious owu
er for a comparative song. Yet, strange,
as it would seem if we did not know tbat
sanie folly was enacted in a thousand oth
er localities, the very men who tave been
thrown out of employment and forced to
abandon their comfortable homes by the
curse of Free Trade, are the very parties
who have been persistently voting for the
Democracy which caused all this social
havoc. The owner of this valuable prop
erty has been beggared outright by the
Vliht of democratic freo trade.

SeriousT'Epidetoi'c at the tTniversity of
Virginia.
A leifiip received in this city from the
Uuiverity of Virginia, dated Maich 18,
states that a very serious ana iaiai epi
demic, somewhat similar to typhoid fe
ver, has been prevbiling ieartully at Wat
institution for some weeks past Quite a
number of the student have already died,
and many are still sick. Great alarm
prevails among those remaining. A spe
on meeting of tbo Board of Visitors was
called some days ago to consider tbc sub
ject, and, if possible, adopt some meas-
ures to counteract tne epiaemio. it

agreed to vacate the rooms m whicn tne
disease oriiiinated, but it soon appeared
in other apartments, there being three
new cases shortly afterward. The stu
dents, becomimr fctiil more cscited, pre
sented a petition to the 13oard, requesting
a suspension of tbc lectures, which was
not complied with.
For a week pat they have bcrn Icav
ing rapidly, some for their homes, others
taking up their abodes elsewhere, and
out of 024, who were in the University
at the commencement, there are only 300
left. Meetings are held bigLtly to con
sidcr the matter, and additional measures
arc being taken by remaiuing students to
procure a suspension of lecturos, which i
not granted soon, it is believed the insti
tution may be finally deserted until health-
fulness is again rotorcd. At last" ac
counts the executive committee had call
cd another meeting of the Board, and i
was believed some definite action would
betaken in order to render satisfaction
and safety to tho.-e in the university.

Public Vendues.
As this is the season for Public Ven
dues and the Farmers' can do but little
out door work, the sales of farm stock
and "household and kitchen furniture"
are very largely nttended and good pri
ces arc generally obtained. It is said that
over 100U people were at the sale at the
late rcMdeuce of Henry Lerch. in Forks
township, last Thursday. Tbo family
were eaten out of "house and home'' by
persons who abused their kind hospitali
ty, although thej bad generously prepar
ed for at least 100 people. They were e
ven obliged to keep their eellar locked to
prevent stealing. People who go to Ten-
dues irhould know how to behave them
selves properly or stay home. We did
not hear how the farm stock sold at this
sale; the total amount of the two day's
sale amounted to nearly S'-000. At

The Republican publishes extracts from
a private letter from Col. J'jhnston to a
friend in that city, dated February 5th,
in which he says he has received no com
munication from the Government since
the 22nd of Oetober. He complains that
the contractors take more than three
months to carry the mails to Utah, wheu
their contract states tbat the service shall
be done monthly. Col. Johnston de
scribes the march to Camp Scott, and
compliments the troops.
He says the mormons have fully, as far
as words and actions can manifest their
intentions, declared their determination
to no longer submit to any government
but their own, and that the people Kf the
Uuion must submit to the usurpation oi
their territory, and have a government
created in their midst acknowledging no
dependence upon or allegiance to the
JbeUeral authority, -or act with vigor aud
force to compel them to succomb.- He
expresses an earnest hope that every ex
ertion will be made to forward supplies
early in the Spring, under a sufficient
guard of raountod men.
A Whiskey Insurrection in 0hior

The lottery Mania.
A lottery enterprise has been gotten
up by C. E. Todd & Co., in New York,
which has proven to do a pexieet awiuuiu,
and baa duped -a great many persons
throughout tbo country. Upon complaint
made, the post, oince was waicueu uu
Thursday, by police officers, and a young
man who received that morning some two
hundred letters, by the name of Hall,
was arrested. The Herald gives a very
interesting account of- the matter, as fol
lows :
The officers visited No. 372 Grand
steet, whore they found two young ladies

sweriuf a large number of letters, which
lay upon tbo table in the room. lhey
were also brought before the Mayor, to
gether with the letters found on the prom
ises. The gills stated that they were in
no way connected with the concern, nor
was there such a firm as C. E. Todd &
Co., but that Hall was the only person
carrviuir on the business, and they were
emr.loyed by him to answer letters. The
Mayor accordingly oisciiargea me gins,
but held Hall to bail in the sum of 81,000
On nnrnin.r thu letters. S210 was found

were about forty from various editors o
country nowspapers wanting chances m

ti-cnieut of Todd &C6., cut from couu
try papers in the Southern and Western
States, were found, some a column in
length, statlug that the advertisers were
extensive manufacturers of gold pencils
and that, in consequence of the money
pressure, they were induced to get up a

disposing of their stock. $j would enti

be allowed to send their names ana ad
