    THE CHOLERA.
This fearful pestilence is certainly
marching on with a steady pace. Its
pathway is strewn with victims ! Thou
sands and tens of thousands have fallen,
and there are yet countless multitudes
among the doomed. Letters from Pe
tersburg to the sth of November state
on the authority of the official reports
received by the Government, that the
Cholera continued to advance toward
the north and east. Cases of it had
occurred at Orel, at Toula, and even in
the village of Pensa, situated at only
fifteen leagues from Moscow. In the
province of Astrandan, in which there
were 31,000 inhabitants, 5915 cases had
occurred, and 3131 deaths. The disease
raged with great severity at Tschsrno
jarsk, and in the environs. At Saratof,
the capital of the province of that name,
2500 persons had been attacked, 1991
of whom had died. In the country of
the Cossacks of the Don there had been
12,651 cases ; of which 7017 terminated
fatally.
At Charkey 53 persons had been car
ried off and on September 15 there were
688 sick at Kursk. At Worenesh, a
town with a population of 44,000, the
Cholera broke out on the 4th of Septem
ber, and 420 new cases and 150 deaths
had occurred daily. On the 16th there
were 1,019 persons ill of the cholera in
the hospital, 4.18 of whom were attacked
the same day. The deaths on that day
were 152.
Account Current with Mexico.
It seems that our government intends
to deal in the true mercantile spirit with
Mexico, and to open with her a regular
account current, in which each battle
which we gain is charged against her,
and she is to be credited witl► every
piece of territory which we seize. The
charge up to the battle of Monterey (in
elusive) amounted to precisely enough
to pay for Upper California. Buena Vista
aided another slice of land, and Gen.
Scott's battles before his arrival at the
city of Mexico swept nearly one-half of
her whole territory, including former
charges; and his capture of the city
has so swelled our accounts as to de
mand the surrender of the whole of
Mexico in liquidation. How we are to
be compensated should more battles be
fought we know not, unless, indeed, in
accordance with the assertion of the
Washington correspondent of the Phil
adelphia Ledger, we proceed to "anni
hilate" the inhabitants.
In thus reducing the war to a dollars
and cents business, we descend from the
elevated position, first assumed, of com
bating for justice and honor, and exhib
it a huckstering disposition disgraceful
to a great and powerful nation. If we
use our power to chastise the enemy, let
us not descend to the meanness of char
ging him so much for every blow which
we give him. The guerillas are stig
matized as robbers for plundering our
trains, and yet we would seize upon their
whole country, and dignify the act by
calling it an act of indemnity.
The conquest and annexation of Mex
ico, whatever coloring we may attempt
to give to the act, will be considered by
the civilized world ns equal in atrocity
to the seizure and partition of Poland,
and will affix a stigma to our country
which ages will not be able to efface.—

AMERICAN TEA,
We learn by a communication in the
"Washington Union," that the Hon. Jas.
Buchanan, Secretary of State, has re
cently received a package of tea, grown
in Brazil, from our consul at St. Catha
rine's. The leaf is something larger
and darker than the Chinese tea ; its fla
vor is strong and aromatic, and resem
bles the best specimens from China.—
When prepared, it strongly assimilates
the mixture of black and green tea, so
much—indeed, almost exclusively—
drunk in England; after Chinn, the
greatest tea drinking country in the
world. The tea plant was first introdu
ced into Brazil by King John, of Portu
gal. The writer of the communication
states that the successful cultivation of
this plant in the United States, may be
looked upon as a matter of certainty ; as
climate exists in the States of North
and South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee,
Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louis
iana and Texas, extending one degree
south of the Rio Grande, precisely sim
ilar to the tea growing districts of China.

WORKINGMEN SHOULD STUDY POLITICS.
- I respectfully counsel those whom I
address, (the workingmen of America,)
I counsel you to labor for a clear under
standing of the subjects which agitate
the community—to make them your
study, instead of wasting your leisure
in vague passionate talk about them.—
The time thrown away by the mass of
the people on the rumors of the day,
might, if better spent, give them a good
acquaintance with the constitution, laws,
history, and interests of their country,
and thus establish them on those great
principles by which particular measures
are to bealetermined. In proportion as
the people thus improve themselves,
they will cease to be the tools of design
ing politicians. Their intelligence, not
their passions and jealousies, will be
addressed by those who seek their votes.
They will exercise not a nominal, but a
real influence in the government and
destinies of the country, and at the same
time will forward their own growth in
truth and virtue.
Military Contributions in Mexico.
The Secretary of the Treasury under
the sanction of the President has issued
an order that the export duty exacted
before the war by the Government of
Mexico be now collected at the port of
exportation, by the same officers of the
army or navy of the United States in the
Mexican ports in our possession who
are authorized to collect the import du
ties ; abolishing however, the prohibition
of export established in certain csses
by the Mexican Government, as also all
interior transit duties ; dispensing also
with the necessity of any certificate of
having paid any duty to the Mexican
Government.
The export duty is then as follows: on
Gold, coined or wrought, 3 per cent.
Silver, coined or wrought, 6 per cent.
Silver wrought, with or without cer
tificate of having paid any duty to the
Mexican Government, 7 per cent. ,
Silver refined or pure, wrought or in
ingots, with or without certificate of
having paid the Mexican Government
duty, 7 per cent.
Gold unwrought, or in a state of ore,
or dust, 7 per cent.
Where gold or silver, in any form is
taken from any interior Mexican city in
our military possession, the export duty
must be paid there, to the officer of the
United States commanding; and his
certificate of such payment must be
produced at the Mexican port of expor
tation, otherwise a double duty will be
collected upon the arrival of such gold
or silver at the Mexican port of expor
tation. Whenever it is practicable, all
internal taxes, of every description,
whether upon persons or property, ex
acted by the Government of Mexico, or
by any department, town, or city there
of, shall be collected by our military
officers in possession, and appropriated
as a military contribution towards de
fraying the expenses of the war ; exclu
ding however all duties on the transit
of goods from one department to anoth
er, which duties, being prejudicial to
revenue and restrictive of the exchange
of imports for imports, were abolished
by Paredes' order of the 31st of March
last.
GREAT FIRE IN lOWA.—The Western

his immediate neighborhood, cannot be
less than $50,000
