Press of the 5th inst. considers itself fully justified in saying that the cholera no longer exists in that country as an epidemic. No case had occurred in Charlestown or Harper's Ferry, for the last two weeks. Smiths- field had been entirely exempt, and in Shepherds town, where "many hearts had been made desolate," there had been no case of cholera since the 27th ult.

The iiore natural conclusion would be perhaps, that there was not force enough in the am- i i to do any serious injury: at any rate, we have escaped unhurt. The whole race of quadrupeds are rejoicing at their fortunate escape. But to confess the truth, I was a little alarmed; for I thought some able person might be procured to charge the big pa- perGUN, (to wit, the Intelligencer.) so as to cither make a successful shot, or ilse blow up my whole race.

But I now treat the sharp shooting archer with a candid and serious reply. I read the attack made upon me i care and attention but could only find many "scattered fragments of broken thoughts," and words of five syllables, thrown together without sense, iearninv, or skill. The attack speaks of a convention of quadrupeds. Tins is something that I know i about. If there ever was such a convention, the name of the Chairman, and Clerk, and the lac where it was holden, and the time when, ought to be published also, or else there will be no credit given to the publication.

The other candidates then had a friendly consultation, and by an amicable afre- ment, SMITH STARR, of Clark fi 0 was nominated as the standing candidate Messrs Tainter and Roorback cheerfully declined in his favor, and pledged themselves to use their influence to promoto his election. The business for which the meeting assembled being accomplished, Doctor McMillan, of Clarksfield, was duly appointed to report the proceedings, and request tho editors news papers printed in this county, to publish the same in their respective papers, and discontinue the names of Messrs Tainter, Roorback Spalding and Palmer, as candidates for county commissioner. Being universally admitted that the eastern part of the county is entitled to one commissioner, solicitations were frequently received from the west, for us to unite upon one candidate, and they would cheerfully give him their support. The proposed arrangement having been made, and Smith Starr being the candidate nominated, and a man of acknowledged abilities, there is no doubt but the approaching contest will result in is his election.
