lonians suffering from the Cholera.
The present condition of the population of Cephalonia (one of the
lonian Island', forming the Septiroular United States, under the
protection of Great lirlta-n) Is mod appalling. In the beginning of
Lot tumid, the Cholera, in its mo,t virulent form, made its appear-
ance in the Wand, and from that time up to the Last advice., was car-
rying off the people at the rate of from 100 to 200 a week, the average
mortality being nearly SO in every 100 attacked. The nature of the
country, which is divided In the centre by the high ridges of the
Black Mountain ( Mount lane.), with valleys running down to the sea,
which 21.0 almost cute the island into two divisions bye deep bay,

neighlames at once imposed on Cephalonia, preventing thereby all
communication with the other Wands or the continent of Greece-ore

and olives, which form the staple product of the inland. The pi wants,
at the very time of harvest, tailing dead from the cholera in their
vineyards and by the rod-side, had the misery, in their lad momenta.

death, certainly to famine.
The 'boars of the field, the Tillage% ore now deserted, while the
widows and orphans, the crying and the Mary ing, throng in terror
round the two towns of Wart and Argootoli, imploring food and
help. All that the kcal government could do has hero done is thin

suited to the aanistarce of their afflicted brethren, with subscriptions,
combining the charity of all portico, from dollars to pence.
But the calair fly hos lellen on one of the largest islands of this
community, Cephalonia, alone containing a population of 70,600, out
of the 260,010 comprised in all the islar.ds; and their meane are too
small, not merely to remedy, but even to alleviate a distress so terri-
