THE CHOLERA.—A letter from Aleppo, of the 19th
ult., states that the cholera broke out there at the com-
mencement of July. At first it was only a cholerine,
which was easily cured upon proper remedies when employed
in time, but on 7th July it changed into Asiatic cholera and
spread rapidly. At the date of the letter all the quitters
of the city were iniected. The deaths increased daily
from the 7th to the 19th, and amounted altogether to
between 900 and 1,000, three fourths of whom were
hiussulmans. From the 15th the daily average of deaths
was from 120 to 140. There were only three Euro-
pe= doctors to a population of from 75,000 to 80,000.
Some wealthy persons had been stricken, but in general it
was the poor, AI-lodged, and ill-fed, who were unable to
take the necessary precautions, or whets attacked to obtain
the necessary assistance. Persons attacked died within seven
or eight hours, and frequently in three or tour. Only two
Europeans hall died of the disease. Such was the terror
caused that the town was almnt deserted. No shops were
open except those of bakers, butchers, and provision deafen.
All who could remain confined to their homes, and seven or
eig'tt thousand inhabitants, among whom are many of the
foreign consuls, had fled. The English, French, and
Sardinian consuls, however, remained at their posts, sad
thereby gave a certain confidence to the population and their
countrymen.

wood o. Paul Pryer' and " John Attwood o. Robert Wills-
man," and were for the recovery of the rent of small tine.
menta. The plaintiff's agent at Lyme swore that the rent
owing in the first named use amounted to 351. las. Mr.
Tucker, 'elicitor, who appeared for the defendant, addressed
the judge, and observed that although Mr. Attwood's attor-
ney had repudiated all association of political mitten
with the present CAM, yet that, in reality, it arose out of
electioneering disappointments on the part of Mr. Attwood.
Re was instructed that the tenancy of the defendant com-
menced in 1845, but teat no rent was asked for till 1847,
when Mr. Attwood began to discover that his attempts
to monopolise the borough of Lyme Regis were f nitrated
even by those whom he had allowed to occupy his houses
