We wish to state that such an idea is positively erroneous and that there is not a sin gle case of cholera in the city, and there is no reason to apprehend there will be.

Managkk. I WRECK OHM BAY. I REPORTS OF 9 DEAD BODIES Found- Wreckage Strowed From Todd's Fishery to Magnolia Beach' On Wednesday morning news comes ofawrtckoff Long Hay. Small pieces of wreckage have been coining ashore since last Friday night. At Todd's Fishery a pair of oars were found; they are now being used on the fishory. A yawl boat was washed up on the beach opposite Mr. John Vereen's and found by a young man named Smith. One report says that four sailors were cast on shore at Magnolia beach; another, that five others drifted in twenty-five or thirty *mi!es above, near Cherry drove fishery. Nothing was found on the bodies by which they could be identified, so far as we can learn. The name of the wrecked vessel cannot bo learned; it was foreign, svc are told, and hard to remember. Most of the wreckage found were small pioces, the largest being a cabin door. Some pieces of fancy work were picked up by beaeh parties from Mnrrell's Creek. There has been a continuous east wind blowing off Long Hay for a week or ten days. The place whore the vessel was wrecked is not known here. There arc no reports of anyone's having seen the hull of the ship. It is possible that Frying Pan Shoals is responsible again. J. O. N. run It H POllT IS KS TRIALS, ! Ouco More at Peace with his Profession and the ICtlitor I lis mind is burdened with a secret; his conscience with a crime. Whisper it softly?a newspaper reporter lias feelings and a soul; did noono ever guess it? lie has .. r..i? / . i i ? uuuibicii sorniw lor inose lie nas wronged; will not any one believe it? He was tempted ami fell?tempted of his inmost and overwhelming detires to inllict his presence upon dear friends, lie knew it was a capital social crime to aid and abelt a reporter in the pcrsuitof pleasure, lie knew his patron saint, Madam Grundy would forsake hiin for l?aving his devotions to her. He knew it was a sin against his pencil to seek a righteous instead of a writeons recreation?to lay aside his Faber and talk instead of listen, to forget his noto book for two and a half whole days. But ho did it; he heeded not his roportorial conscience and fell?110, scrambled above his position and went a fishing. The boat quietly rose and fell on the swells; old ocean's waves were dashing on the beach; his reportorial conscience was rocked to sleep. lie listened to tho voice of the waters; he watched the dark green of the stunted oaks to the eastward, so clearly outlined against the white sand hills beyond; he missed throo consecutive bites, but never once offered to handle his note book and pencil. lie turned on his seat and casting his load line up the creek silently gazed on the beauties around him. During the intervals of feeding a certain species of saltwater ''bug" to the fish, he lost himself and his roportorial nature in comtcmplation of tho snug houses hidden away among the grand live oaks on the western bat)k of the creek; the light green marsh grass that stretched far away to the north and south, and wonders! the scene never even fell into paragraphs in his mind. All conspired to make him forget his business?the newspaper business. The stern and taciturn ennn. tenanceof the captain of the craft showing as it did, the tcriblo responsibility of human lives and female that rested upon him, brought to the reporters recollection a time long ago, before ho cast aside the things of society for a pencil, before he went metaphoricaly far awpy from common affairs into the newspaper business-a time when he could have sympathized with the captain in the xoaights (weight and wait) that, pressed him. While the young lady passengers were catching all the fish, ho drew out a solitary shovelnosed shark, ua lone, 'lorn critter,' and the thoughts flashed suddenly upon him that once npon a time in the hazy past before politics and J IY HEHALD, T interviewing smartness had corrupted and blunted his mind, lie could ehat with the ladies. But now, no more; sympathy and chat were of the past?gone. In the forum of Dame Nature, in the terrible preicuce#of mighty Father neptune, who has been detailed exeeutioner of poetic justice so many times upon dime novel heroes, tho reporter had fought out a stubborn battle in his brain. Ho won on the loft. The infliction of his presence the ^desertion of his pencil were sins, ? . ,.i .1 i , , no repemeu mom in ui? sacKoiom and ashes of guilty consciousness, lie eschewed society once more?the nineteenth] time anil returned to his sanctum. IIo lost in the right, lie holds dearest of all his memories of the past the two and a half days he spent with peace, pleasure anu profit,?having deserted his patron saint?on tho Creek among friends of hotter unreportorial days. J. O. N. Republican County Convention. The negroes met hero on Saturday the 24th under tho call from State Chairman Yi ehster to elect two delegates to State Convention and three to the Congressional; a County Chairman to servo the next two years and "where such course is deemed advisable to nominate a r.onntv tir>.k-iu " o..ll .tM - -J V.W..VX A IIV Villi UIU IIUl specifically to stato the work of the State Convention, but the "such other business" clause seemed to be taken to mean nomination of State officers by the Convention here. The delegates were iron bound to tote for State nominations and "not to sell out for a few dollars/' It took from 12 M toll 1'. M. for the Convention to do it's little business. A big part of the time was spent in hearing speeches from all comers. No one but negroes responded during tho mass meeting. The feeling of the Convention as moulded by letters from headquarters was a hard fight against'the evils of Democracy. There was considerable fooling in the Convention against Chairman Singleton. He and Cause, delegates to tho State Convention two years ago were publicly accused of selling out to the opposite Republican faction. This was denied but the denial had but little effect upon the members. Considerable enthusiasm against the Democracy was worked up by the passionate harrangues of speakers. G. 0. Singleton made a big speech by invitation. We haven't space to review it. No County ticket was nominated. For delegate to State Convention, N. W. Cause and Klder Crossland will vote for nomination of a State ticket. T. 13. Gordon was elected County Chairman. A congressman they say will be put out in this, "do 0 destrick.''
