FATALITIES THROUGH INTEMPERANCE.—To-eley
the Liverpool coroner will have to Inquire into two caste
which strikingly exhibit the dreadful results of intemperance.
Mary Stevenson, the wife of a cotton rarer, went home the
other night Ma state of intoxication, her husband being also
in a similar condition. They quarrelled, and he first struck
be over the head with his fiat, and afterwards kicked bee
savagely about the body. She was put to bed, and died
soon afterwards. In the other care a ropemakcr fill down
on Sunday, and died in the street, u be was resuming in
drunken condition from • public-house where be was in the
habit of caroming.
DREADFUL THUNDERSTORM AT CONELEY, STAN-
Feeneitiar.—On Sudsy merging, shoat four o'cleek, e
violent thondenterre visPed Cowl,. The &Mee fluidi
struck the house scrupled by Mr. Wilt am Nickelson, X
Mason's Bank Lens, and shattered the attire building,
hurling the bricks yards away in every direction and
knocking down a portion of the gable end of the adjoining
buildings. The windows were broken, bat noteritheten&
lag that some bricks fell on the bed upon which two of the
Mantes were sleeping, they wire fortunately altogether
unhurt. The inhabitants hewing the awful noise none/
from their house', some only partly droned, and it wag
not long before hundreds were on the spot. The rain aloe
fell incessantly. Two pow ectlevre, fladieg that their
furniture was swimming abort eta bout*, implerad. in
Owes words, for assistance front the bedroom v,indow, se
they mil they should be drowned. A ladder wee reared,
and they were got out through the endow.
THE POTATO DISEASE.—We regret to state that
the pota'e Massa has already made its emanate in
in the southern division of this natty. At West HEM,
Plaistow, East MHO, Ilford, and some other placer, the crops
have been repreemited u more or less steeled ; in short,
eaveral weer of that esculent hove been ploughed up within
the last few dame—lmes Herald.
DIPHTHERIA.—The symptoms and treatment of
diphtheria are seceding the carefel notice of tome of the
moat emiteat of the medical peofemion, and without doubt
ere Icier any uncertainty which now mats on the matter will
be removed. Beadles the manner of treatment, It G most
necessary to determine to what extent diphtheria dependet
upon sanitary ceaditions ; and whether it cep, like typhus
fever, be attributed to bad drainage, meet of cleanu
overcrowding, sad other evil orrargements erejuncial to
heath. Dr. Ballard, the =Berl Miter of health for the
Islington district, hes Inquire! into bAween sixty and
royalty distinct wises, which have cccurred in that neigh-
bourhood; and it appears that about oneetralf of these took
place is the families of perdue en good positions, occupying
in which ne imperfection of endwise or other
heed,' could he discovered by the suPary inepector. It
must, however, be eoticed that, at the rate of 60 per cent.
the how.'o were in ill condition. It is notimd of title die-
order, that it has been moot Intone In the suburbac Gad
open asighbeurbooda ; it does not, however, in this respect
didsr from plague or cholera, which generally, like en
availing army, akirmiahea about the outskirts bef ire it
attacks the centre. In the City district, and In other popularise
pert.. the number of cases of diphtheria has been very few.
It ia necessary to mention this in order that we may judge
how ninth ibis complaint, in its present form, depends on
malerioas influenciee, and how much on ranitary derange-
ments. In considering the condition of Geese dwelling', in
which deaths from this cense have occurred, in hours
seemingly of a good order, we should Lot lose algit tithe
antroanding evils. Are there back alums and fever nests
close by, although hidden from the view P Are th re pesti-
lential aitches, or undrained lands near P Phew of the
French writers on this subject seributs this di• we to
manna, arising from fens, stargaze water, cc :Fred., end

diphtheria has destroyed so mach life, Is sufficient ti a .count
