It should be understood that this is not epidemic cholers, but one of those cases arising from local canses, of which there are more or less every year, and which need occasion no other alarm than such as the general uncleanliness of the city ought always to excite. The action of Gov. Cartin of Pennsylvania, in tak. ing the lead in the matter of the Constitutional Amendment, is prudent and patriotic, We trust that the Governors of all loyal States will take np the work that Congress has thus far well done, and have the amendment to the Constitution ratified.

We print this morning an interesting selection of letters from the U. 8. Consul at Chihuahua to the Socretary of State, throwing not a little light on the | internal administration of Mexican affairs, on the sen- timents of the people of Mexico toward their Austrian ruler, and on their fidelity tothe Republic which their votes erceted and which their best wishes attend in the hours of its hard struggle against foreign usurpa- tion and violence, Mr. Harris of Maryland seems to be anxious for another crown of martyrdom, and invites the Honse to expel him by proclaiming the most offensive dis- loyalty. He would have gone with the Confederacy if Maryland had been allowed to go, says Mr. Harris. We think, however, it was wise to keep Maryland even at the cost of keeping Harris. The only won- : der in onr Aind is why Harris should have preferred | an election to the Congress at Washington when he might have gone to the Richmond concern. The Hon, James W. PATERSON was yesterday nominated on the fourth ballot in a caucus of the Re- publican members of the New-Hampshire Legislatare for United States Senator, to succeed the Hon. Daniel Clark. Mr. Paterson is now a member of the House from the IIId District of New-Hampshire, and well known as an active, honorable, and capable Repre- sentative. New-Hampshire may be relied on to send nobody to the Senate in this crisis who is not heartily in sympathy with the purposes of the Republican ma- | Jjority. Mr. McPherson kindly sends us a letter referring to the letter of our Richmond correspondent published on the 12th inst., but seems to mistuke the point thereinmade. Our correspondent called for the let- tor of President Lincoln to Jobu A. Camp- bell. Mr, McPierson communicates—for which he has our thanks—the dispatch of Mr. Lincoln to Gen. Weitzel, in which the Campbell paper is referred but the text of it not given, Mr. McPherson will see at once that the two documents are uot the same. Possibly, if he applies for the other he may obtain what hitherto bas been withheld from the publie, The Paris Exposition elicited a debate in the Senate yesterday on the merits of the Mexican expedition. Mr. Grimes proposed to withlold all appropriations for American contributions to the Great Exhibition, un- til the French troops had been withdrawn from this continent. Amendments to delay action till the dis- covery of perpetual motion, till the circle bad been squared, till the Polar circle had beea completely ex- plored, and till the proper latitude of Congressional | debate had been definitely fixed, might have been offered, but were not. Mr. Grimes finally withdrew Lis amendment, and the Senate adjourncd without voting on the main question. | Mr. Morgan, in presenting yesterday to the Senate the memorial of the New-York Chamber of Commerce in tavor of a Baukrupt Law, expressed his hope that the House bill would be reported from the Judiciary Committee at au early day. The country expects this, The bill, as it finally passed the House, had boen most carefully matured, and needs little consid eration from the Benate Committee in resppet to its details, It will not be fought in the Senate on any Its enemios coucede that if any bill is to be passed, this is a good one, but their opposition strikes at the principle of the bill, and is based on the belief that we ought not to have any Bankrupt Law at ‘ We take leave to say to the Judiciary Com- all. gle is to be made inthe Sonate itself, and not in Committee, aud theré can be no reason why the measare shoald be held back, If we are to be beaten, we desire to be beaten in a fair fight and on an open field, and we ask the Chairman of the Judiciary Committee to see that the friends of a Bankrupt law Lave a discussion and a vote in the Senate withont further delay. Mr. Hooper, from the Bauking Comnuttee, has re- ported a bill to the House to amend the National Cur- reucy act in important particulars, Power is given the Controller of the Carrency to proceed summarily against any bank guilty of misfeasance, and each bank is prohibited from lending money to any one person in an amount exceeding one-tenth its The circulation of all banks whose capital is less than %300,000 is reduced 10 per cent, and no bank circulation shall exceed §1,000,000, | The reduction thus made I3 estimated at £15,000,000, but in its place an additional authoerity is granted for | 30,000,000 of cireulation; half for the conversion of | State into National banks, and half for the Southern | and othier States which bave less than their fair pro- | portion of capital, The total amount of National | bank capital for the United States is not to exceed the present limit of $300,000,000, The bill proposes also to require all the National bauks to redeem their notes at New-York, Philadel- phia, and Boston; with other important changes of | which an abstract is given elsowhere. MILEAGE, Elsewhere our readers will find a sugeestive table illustrating the proportions which **mileage” has assumed. The people will see how much it costs to carry their Representatives to Washington and home again. A New-York Congressman, for instance, can | only be transported for 376, We send correspondents | many times a year to the Capital, and their mileage is not one-teuth the money, Why should the people pay ten times as much for work doue as private merchants and business men do? California sent five men to Washington, and their expenses amounted to §53,719, which wonld almost buy a steamer, and snggests that it would be economy to send home Cali- fornia Representatives in Government vessels, The | most fortanate man of the party seems to be an | Oregon Representative, whose * expenses™ foot up £12,531 200 A regiment might go to Oregon for almost as much money. —Let the people read this list, and speak of it, and finally consolidateZa public opinion that will suppress it. They must speak loudly—for when money ix con- cerned men are often deaf. The Pittshurgh Gazette, in an article meant to be | fairif not kind, says: | “ Ty TIBUNE does not believe in the utility of punish- | ent, either as a discipiine for ofenders or as a restraint upon | the apectators to it —The Gazette would bave hard work to justify this statement by fair citations from our columns; and we are sure it would intentionally make no other.

Bat the penalties which we would not | let our children see inflicted, we should hesitate to inflict. OUR CURRENCY-ITS PERILS, A private note from an eminent autbority in mat- ters of Currency and Finance thus responds to our inquiries: “You want to know what 7 would do to enable the Govera- ment and the hanks to return to specie payments. +1 supposed that, on this poiat, my position was not doabt- ful; but, as you seem to misapprehend it, I have to say— « First: That T would, if Thad the power, compel the Na- | tional Banks to redeem their notes at the sea-board cities. “Second: T would retire enough of the logal tender notes to check speculation and set the people at woik, “'What we want is a restoration of industry, a diminution of | imports, and aa increase of exports. These we are not likely | to have, 50 long as a vast volume of irredeemable currency is kept ia cireulation. Oa the coutrary, T greatly fear that we shall go *from bad to worse,” until the * bubble’ bursts and we plpnge into a slougb of general bankraptey. I care very little about specio or specie payments, in them- selyes considered. What 1 do desire is, that the business of the country shall be brought into a healthy condition; that the horrible immorality, which s the legitimate result of inflation, shall cease; that as a nation we shall be independent; that as | individuals wo shall become industrious, economical, Lonest. When this condition of things shall be brought about, we shall Every duy that inflation continues, we shall be, of necessity, moving in the opposite direotion.” —We venture the assertion that the doctrines thus suceinetly set forth command the hearty asseut of at least two-thirds of the, American People. They know that the vital question involved in the Currency stroggle is that of Industry against Speculation— more farms opened on the Western prairies rather than more brokers' shops in Wall-st. and State-st. They realize that a currency which shrinks and swells with the tide is constant stimulus to every form of gambling, and a perpetual dissuasive from the slow, pitiful gains of houest labor. And they would like to go right back to solvency if they could. Why, then, are they bafled? Why don't that clear majority of Congress who are sound in head and heart get together and put through a bill that will insure Resumption on or before the 1st of January next? It need not be long nor complicated. We will venture to suggest the outline of an act which would surely effect the purpose. It is as follows: Sec. 1. The Secretary is hereby instructed to redeem in specie on demand eve:y legal tender note that may be pre- sented for payment st the Sub-Treasary in New-York on and after Jan. 1, 1867, Sec. 2. He is farther lostructed to reissue and use those notes in making paymouts from the Treasury. $ec. 3. In order to emable him to maintain the redemption required in Sec. 1, he is hereby authorized to issue and sell bonds of the United States payable at snch times and drawing such rates of interest as way from time to time be necessary, —S8uch an aet, we Tecl perfect confidence, would bring us rapidly back to Specie Payments and keep us there. It would not call in our greenbacks, as is as- | quite so fast as redecmed. But it would compel Na- tional and all other Bauks to contract their issues, importers to limit their orders, and a good many thousands of br :, shavers and speculators, to go to work for a living. And that is just why it is not passed, and will not be till the People shall imper- | FULLERTO! The letter which we print in another column con- cerning Gen, Fullerton will probably be accepted as conclusive evidence of the nnfitness of that officer for & mission of investigation into the Freedmen's Bu- reau. We cau voucli for the writer as thoroughly in- f formed and trustworthy, His statements do not dif- fer materially from those published at the time in the | columns of this journal, and which neither Gen. Ful- lorton nor auybody in his behalf denied. On the contrary, Gen, Fullerton justified bis conduet by claimlng—whether traly or not we have no means of | knowing—that in all he did, he merely carried out the | orders of President Johuson; that he was in fact sent, | to put in force Louisiana an experiment of Presi. | dential policy. The journals which have favored us with elaborate | criticisms on our comments of Wednesday, assume that we desire the perpetuation of the Bureau, Oor | opinions on that point have been stated before, We | regard the Bureau as a temporary organization for the protection of the wnegroes. We think it will bo required so long as the Rebel States per- sist in refusing to their colored citizons the means of protecting themselves, and of securing their own rights to life, liberty, and property. Abol- ish to-day the Black Code, and all laws based on dis- tinction of race or color, and we will advocate to-morrow the abolition of the Burean. It is urged that the white people of the Southern States regard the Bureau with dislike and hostility, We fear it is oo true, unless we except the hungry ones who find their account in Bureau rations. It is equally true that they show a degree of dislike and hostility to their black fellow-citizens which makes the Bureau a necessity for the time being. While a black man is shut out from the courts, forbidden to carry arms, denied the ballot, loaded with penalties for breach of | his contract for the commission of a crime, debarred | from free choice of employment, punished as a vagrant ifhe refuse to work for his old inaster at nominal wages, aud may be sold into slavery for using disre- | spectful language, we do not see how the Freedmen’s The faith of Bureau can be dispensed with, the Government is pledged to maintain the | freedom of the men whem it emancipated, By help of the Bureau, it does thisin a very im- " perfect way, but withont the Burean we fear the | freedmen would be little better off than when Slavery bad an existence in law as well asin fact, There are mistakes in the management of the Bureau, perhaps, as government, and education, and even missionary ance of such an organization will come to an end | cither by & national guaranty of the ballot and all { other rights to the negro, or by a voluntary concession of them on the part of the States, The enemies of the Burean can hasten its disappearance by advocating cither of these methods of enfranchisement for the blacks. Let the South do justice to the negro, and enable him to protect himself, and we shall gladly surrender the Bareau, and take comfort in secing its | officers go to plowing. Mr. Charles 8. Spencer is a gentleman with whom we have quite generally agreed in politics, and on most questions; yet we were not aware that he had | topics of politico-social economy.

ENGLISH OPFRA—FRENCH THEATER. On Wednesday night Balfe’s opera, *The Rowo of Castile,” was produced by the English Opera Compsuy o 8 lasge and fashionable audience, The plot is fecble and improb- able, and is not very interesting because of its improbability, ‘Lhe music must be characterized as fimsy, pateby, aud not earnest. There is not one serious passage in it, although the action deals with foul plots and treasons. The music ia chisfty sustained by orchestral figures, into which the words ire em- broidered with but very little ceremony or regard as to olo- cation or accent. There are two or three ballads whieh are melodious and well made and are guite effective. being the popular numbers in the opera. The veal want of this music is spontaniety; the antbor bas, in a great degree, written ovt ki special vein; the ideas do not flow as frocly as nsual, and whea they are canght, he does not seem to be able to retain them, bat wanders off into inconsequent modulations, with the sle view, apparenty, of getting out of one key, to returu toit again, in the same inconsequent manver. There are soms piecos which are characteristie, clever and spirited. Tho first chorns bas a pational ring to it, and the duet which suceceds, exbibits some clever counterpoint, aud was well sung by Mis Richings and Miss Zelda Harrison. The sabject of the Mule. teer's song, for orchestra is good, to which the vocal accom. pasiment is by no means pleasantly arranged. The tevor ballad, ** Couldst Thou, dear Maid,” commences with & very charmiog, quaint old theme, a really beantifal thought, bet 1t is only balf carried out, and a modern ending gives it an an- expected and not fortunate close. The Guet for soprane tenor is flimsy in the beginning, and inteasifies in fimsiness with every measure. The trio for tenor and two bases is a cariously composed work, but its rythm is effective, It was well sung by Messrs, Wylie, Campbell and Seguin. Ths quartette, **In every Feature like the Queen,” is ove of tha cleverast compositions in the opera. It is weil constructed, dramatic, and is well adapted to the words. The movemeat at the words—If she thinks to outbrave me—is exceadingly charming, and only fails in its exaggerated close. The follow- ing aria for Soprano is brillisnt and characteristie. Tia finale to the first act is very weak indeed, the movemeat— Farewell bright dream—being & painful example of overe strained modulation, ‘The opening chorus to the second act is, to say the least, cus vious, while tLe following bass solo presenls a most insus picions wedding of music to words. Don Pedro’s ballad— Though fortane darkly —is pleasaut in form and sweet i wel- ody, and was very effectively sung by Mr. Cempbell, winuiog the lionor of an encore. E.vira's bailad—Tbe Convent Cell— is quietly and simply beautifal. and fs certaioly the melodious at the invitation of vour authorities, to protect and defend you.” “If you vote for the Union and are overruled, you must leave the State,” said § M. Mason. * Let us all stand together,” James said Alex. H. H. Stuart, ““and then we can make | terms between the belligerents.,” (We give the idea, not the words.)

Miss Caroiiue Ricbings sang ber musie geerally with spirit and effect, and threw great dramatic energy s We sbould, however, alviss Ler to omit the scherzo in the first sceme.

Her execution was irredeemably bad, her fintervals aud her intosation wers both falss, ber shakes bad mo defioite pitch, aad in fact, the whole movement was very badly sung indeed. For her reputation’s sake we advise her to omit this scherzo, Mise Zelda Harrison sang pleasiogly. She 1s improving in stagy ‘ense and wanner.
