Cholera at between 500 and GOO. Esti mating the population 4,400, and 550 deaths, it would be one out of every eiht of the whole population. In Montreal, the total number of deaths from the 13th June to the 18th Sept. was f,151, or one out of every nine of the po pulation of the city. Quebec is said to have suffered still more than Montreal. Yellow Fever at New Orleans. Ex tract of a Idler, dated New Orleans, Sept. 12, to a gentleman in Cincinnati: "I hasten to inform you, and those of your citizens who intend visiting our city soon, thatwc are at last visited with the Vellow Fever pronounced by our phy sicians to be genuine.

The Presidential Flection. We have been surprised to hear it stated by those who certainly ought to know better, that in the event of there being three tickets ia this State, one for Jackson and Van Bu ren, one for Jackson and Barbour, and one for Clay and Sergeant, if the vote of probably greater now that at any former 38,0U0 negroes, in ten years. In 171 was a treaty between England and Spain for the importation of 144,000 negroes in thirty years. Some have estimated the whole number of slaves, exported from Africa, since the origin of this trade, at nearly 20,000,000. Ihe cruelties attending this trade are the two first united should be greater than that ot the third, Jackson would re ceive the electoral vote. This is cer tainly a mistake. If the three tickets are formed, the people will vote for the fif teen persons proposed as Electors, anil the ticket having the highest number will prevail. This we had supposed too plain to be stated, yet it has been doubled by men of standing. The people do not vote either for Jackson or Clay, but fur fifteen electors pledged to vote for parti cular candidates as President, and who shnll receive the vot of the State, must depend on which of the fifteen persons in nomination as Electors have the greatest number of votes. Raleigh Con. (E?A letter published in the Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle, dated Macon, Oct. 3d, states that .Mr. Thomas Ellis, proprietor of the Bank of Macon, was shot in the street on the 2d inst. by a person of the name of Byrom, and died in 5 hours af icr. A quarrel ensued n consequence of Mr. Ellis's obstinacy in refusing to show the books of the Bank. Both had pis tols, and fired about the same lime El lis without effect." A Scoundrel detected. The old adage of "murder will out," lias njjain for the thousandth time been verified, and a de velopment of facts taken place, which not only confirms the imbibed impres sion, that the recent destructive fire in this city, was the work of an incendiary, but that the man who committed the deed is in the hands of justice. Ben. F. Sea burn, the man alluded to, was arrested on Saturday evening last, on a warrant issued by Weston Gales, Esq. for his ap prehension, upon suspicion of his being the incendiary, from circumstances com municated to the police; and a portion of the money lost by Mr. Smith recovered, some of the notes having been identified by that gentleman. Seaburn, it appears, has been in the employ of Mr. Smith, as an overseer, at a brick yard, about two miles from town had come into town on the evening of the fire, and slept in the store; the clerk being absent. This cir cumstance in connection with that of his having expended since the fire, a great deal of money foolishly, while it was known that he had none before that event, led to his arrest. The prisoner after un dergoing an examination on Monday morning, before Jos. Gales, Intendant, and Messrs. Cobb & Poole, Magistrates, was fully committed, on a charge of Ar son and Robbery, for his trial at the next period. The slave ships are now crowd ed to excess, and the mortality is dread ful. In 13 16, the African Institution as certained that one vessel of 130 tons took 530 slaves, of which 120 died on the pas sage to Turtola. Another vessel, of 270 tons, received G42 slaves, and lost 140. Another vessel lost 200 out of GOO. An other 9G out of 500. Another of 120 tons, took on board GOO slaves, and tho' when captured, she had sailed but 30 leagues, she had lost 80, and many were in a dying state. Dr. Philip, a distinguished Missionary at the Cape of Good Hope, estimates the number annually exported at 100,000. In 1823, Mr. Ashmun wrote from the co lony, that at least 2000 slaves were annu ally exported from Capes Mount and Montserado. In 1824, the African Insti tution reports 120,000 as the number ex ported from the coast, and presents a de tailed list of the names of 213 vessels believed to be engaged in the trade du ring that year. In 1827, 122 vessels sailed from Cuba to Africa for slaves. Within the last 11 years, 322,525 slavds have been imported into the single port of Rio Janeiro; that is an average of 29,320 annually. ri ippim 1 1 im 1 1 ii 1 1 i n i ) i ii -itt in 1 1 m mi i i iwm wi n n nam i w nun 9 T ESPECTFULLY informs the citizens of this and adjacent counties, that he has commenced business on his own account in ihe Store House recently occupied by Watson 4 Co. and is now receiving a very extensive and well selected Stock of Foreign and Domestic Groceries, Hardware, China, Crochcryfllcits, S'ioe, &c &c.
