In Gallatin, or nent there, are no mfimm ponds of water, no !“:fi. gish stroams, and not more than ordinary filth. But tho cholersa traveled thore from Nashville on tho winge of $he morning. Half tho poopla fled, loaving loss than 1,600 in town. Yot of this 1,600, 102 have died in Jegs than a month!

At Nashville, the disoaso ia slowly subsiding, the daily desth"rate varying from five to twelvo. The sesttored citizens ate roturning, and evory train goes in full. The danger is that thosewho remained throughont it all, living on hard ham and dry broad, will, with the decline ef the dis- easo, go into vegetables with such vim as to raiso tho doath-rate, Thia ia not the Naskville viow, I know ;ithoy are all ina high state of hope thore ; but stranger thinge have happened, The doaths in Nashville in Juns were about 5 por cont of the p:gfi’ll&uou in tho city, This is & vory unhealthy o 3 At Memphis, the digease and consoquent alarm haye both abated.

Botwoen oach of tho chamboers a body of clay eighteon feot thick is loft standing as a support for tho overhanging rock, As soon as s chamher has boen worked out, the miners be- in at the ondand cut through the next cham- or, making a passago-way six yards wide.

The persons engaged in that imme- diato vicinity were five in number; Edward Kondall, the hoad of tho shift, Joshua N. Judy, Thomas Platt, Parley Morris, and David Gowan. They were working in the chambar when they heard tho rook crack, and Kendall called out to thom to run.

'I'he amonnt of protection racolvod by Italinna at this port, and tho circumstances that bring them Lore, may ba beat sot forth by an incldont that occurred npon ono of our Eopuloua thoroughfares yosterdny. Lato in tho_aftornoon, as tired mon, woron, and children wore flocking toward the various ferrion and horso-onrs, to reach their homoo nf- ter tho dny’s business, o thin, emacisted ‘woman, accompaniod by two small childron, was found reclining upon’ the steps of o wareliouse which Lind boou cloged for the day, upon Fulton stroot, above Church. Bho looked 'vory miserablo, but the hurrying crowds passed bior by, porhaps without uotico, but finally a largo-honrted Gor- man passad, and seeing hor confilt(on ho pitied her. " Ho did moro ;' Lio 4poke to lier, and finding sho was exhaustod from oxposure 'and want of {ood, ho looked about for a remedy. ‘Tho woman and her two childran woro trane- ported to a reataurant closo by, and after proper attention thero was amarked’ improvement in thoir condition. Tha womnn spoke a foroign (ouflm, lowaver, whioh tho good Bamaritan could not undezstand, but most providentially, ot thnt woment o siranger enterod. Ho wne an Iteltan, and quickly ruuolfixizud tho wrotched womanasa nativoof his own bright land, Roviving undor tho good treatment sho had received, tho woman spoke of the circumstancos that brolight her hero, and of tho treatment ahio Lind receivod sinco her arrival, making togethor a story of nb- Joct misery soldom oqualed. Sho rolatod that sho camo from Houthorn Italy, the Provinco of Basilicato, where sho had married and lived happy with hor husband for many yoars. Sho had six’children, the oldest of which was now, if living, 12 years of age. Five of thom wore boys, and tho youngest & girl of only ¢ months, Ono morning, she wont on to toll, sho awokoe to find that hor four oldest boya liad beon stolan from thoir bods whilo asleop, kidnapped from thoir homos, and taken, whithor sho know not. Upon thisaffecting circumstanco she did not earo to dwoll, but went on to tell of the inquirios sho mado to ascortnin tho whoren~ boutsof her childron, Tho authorities of hor na- tive placo woro applied to, but as usual with authorities, thoy know nothing, This onl oc- currod about seven months ago, and, after o fruitless soarcl, sho honrd that hor doar boys hnd boon taken to the Woestern Ro) ublio, the Unitod States, the Loma of Washingtor, seq Lincoln, to b gold into slavory, Hor mind, sho rolatos, was quickly made up, and sho rosglyed to cross thio ocean to find them. Shoe says sho had no foar of coming hore, for sho had ofton been told that any forcigner landing here would immediatoly recelve 100'acros of latd and em- })onmunt at oncournging wagoes. Bho, there- ore, raised what money she could, and leavin, hor husband to manage the farm alono, sha tool hor tywo remaining childron, fearful of loaving thom behind her, and crossod the acean to tho unknown land boyond, to search for her boys, Blhe arrived here only two_ weeks ago, and, aftor the usual dolays, passed through Castld Gardon—much, to hor surpriso, sho recoivod noithor land nor monoy, and found horsolf help- loas, friondless, and alono 1 a Atrango country, and among o pooplo whose languago shio could not speak, even to make hor most necessary wants known, Bho waudered sbout from day to day, and sho folls that halp was doniod hor e¥en whore she had a right to expeot it. Hor little stook of monoy was soon gone, and by day sho ‘was compelled to beg, and by ufght to sleop in tho streats, Ior two cluldren—ono n boy 6 yoars old, and tho other a suckling infant—ro- mained with her and endured all their mother’s ardobipa in looking for thair hrathera, A moth- or's love, howaver, could not shield thom from the offects of want and oxposuro, and finally, tired out in body aud soul, she sauk upon adoor- stop, end would probably have died had sho not roceived assistance. When found, she and her childron had boon Lo days without tastiug food, and thary wero all mo weak thoy could scarcely walk. The boy was a moro skeloton, so far gong with sufforing that he could scarcoly eat, and had to bo given milk, The mothor's condition was about the same, and the baby at her breast was too wenk even to cry, for it must have missod its usual nutrimont for several days, and had fallon into o sound sleop, from whiok it was difficult to arouso it. After eating all they could, which was very little, and given more food for another meul, an offort was mado to have the woman toll her namo and go to a charitable institution until sho and her childron bad recoverad sufilciently to rosumo tho search.. Bhe refused to tell hor name, however, saying she was afraid, and would not go to any placo until she had asked » prieat about it. Eeiug rossed to accopt material nid, or ot least to al- ow hor childron to be taken caro of, the insisted upon_loaving, saying that sho bolieved hor would-be-friends wore only tying to stoal her romaining children, Aftor accepting somo mon- oy, sho loft tho rostaurant, probably stronger than whon sho entored, butstill too weak to wandor sbout until darl, stroots.
