THE CHOLERA 1N EGYPT.
ALEXANDRIA, Jam Vt.,

The deaths from cholera yesterday were 208. I,
For some days past the variations in the
temperature have been followed by corresponding
fluctuations in the rate of mortality, which
confirms the prevailing opinion that the epidemic
arises from the state of the atmosphere in the city.
Yesterday the heat was much lees than ordinary,
and even during the hottest period of the day there
was a strong breeze from the sea.
Huber Pachii, the Minister of Public Works,
who recently directed that the numerous
labourers working upon the railway embank_
menta should be exempt from labour during
the hottest time of the day, h.s now ordered
rations of wine, soup, meat, and rice to be
served out to the men on the government works
morning and evening. Thanks to this timely
nourishment no case of cholera has occurred among
r the numerous working population depending upon
the ministry of public works.
