TO TIIE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sin,—lt is, I believe, generally allowed that cholera
broke out first during the Mabratta War. From this
fact it would appear that man then inhaled some noxious
vapour, or that the decomposing substances of a camp,
coming in contact with the impure air of those vast
jungles which cover a large portion of India, generated
some gas which caused cholera, and which, having once
been produced, has constantly spread.
That such noxious airs pervade the thick jungles of
India, especially along the banks of the large rivers, is,
I think, proved by the fact of the 78th Highlanders
losing almost the whole regiment along the banks of the
Indue in its march to Burrachee at an unhealthy season
of the year. The disease was a virulent fever. To find
out what the state of the air is which produces cholera,
I would recommend a systematic analysis of the air in
our hospitals in all parts of the world, and particularly
in those localities in which cholera may break out.
Where two or three people have died in a house from
cholera, I would analyse the air, having previously ex-
hausted the air from a large glass jar. I would also
ascertain the state of the air at a height of 60 feet above
an infected town. This may be done by exhausting the
air from a large glass jar placed on the ground, and con-
ducting air into it from any height. When it is °nyc_e,

TVIANT OF CANDOUR AND HONESTY IN

MINISTERS.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
Sir,—ln Gibbon's "Decline and Fall of the Roman
Empire" (vol. ii., chap. xiii.), the Emperor Diocletian's
opinion of " Ministers " is thus recorded :
" How often is it the interest of four or five Ministers
to combine together to deceive their sovereign ! Secluded
from mankind by his exalted dignity, the truth is con-
cealed from his knowledge ; he can see only with their
eyes, he hears nothing but their misrepresentations. He
confers the most important offices upon vice and weak-
ness, and disgraces the most virtuous and deserving
among his subjects. By such infamous arts (adds Dio-
cletian) the best and wisest princes are sold to the venal
corruption of their courtiers."
How applicable is this statement to Ministers of the
present day ! For in how many recent instances have
not important offices, honours and rewards, been con-
ferred on incompetency, on weakness, and even on
treachery and vice—whilst disgrace has bee❑ the award
of others who have honestly and gallantly served their
country and their Qaeen.—l am, &c. ARGUS.

display will be made, as well as from the R.Y.S. yachts

TURKEY.

A letter from Constantinople of the 2d, in the
Courrier de Marseilles, states that additional rein-

as part of them were to remain near that city, the
French authorities were causing the camp of Mas-

it. Prince Vogoridhes, father-in-law of M. Musu-
rus, Ambassador of the Sublime Porte at London,
had received from the Sultan the order of Medjidie
of the first class, which gives him the privileges

LONDON, TUESDAY, AUGUST 14, 1855.

The crimes of the House of Hapsburg are of a
complexion never to be forgiven. They are un-
redeemed by any admixture of good, or by a single
spark of magnanimity. Great States have_ fer-
tilised the countries they conquered, and, in pallia-
tion of the cruelties which marked their victorious

career, have left, in a higher civilisation, lasting

traces of their physical and intellectual superiority.
But Austria has conquered only to debase and
destroy. Her career has been that of an ATTILA,
but more inglorious, as she has made her way by
every species of fraud, combined with every species
of secret persecution. The readers of her annals
quality has been most
arc puzzled to say which
prominent in the character of her government—
cowardice or cruelty. She has been by turns
fawning and treacherous to rival States, but to
the unhappy people subject to her yoke she has
been uniformly tyrannical and merciless. With
a refinement of cruelty which it belongs only to the
guiltiest of all Gpvernrnents to exercise, she has
made the suffering cries of the people she oppressd
a pretence for loading them with heavier penalties.
She has drawn the cords of her political rack
tighter with every groan the torture has wrung
from the victim's lips. The sword, the scaffold,
and the torch have been her invariable answers to
every prayer for relief or petition for justice. Her
scheme of government is a perpetual system of
martial law, aided by the services of the spy and

inquisitor.
Since the events of 1848 revealed the deep-
seated hatred which her iniquitous rule excited,
not only among the races she has enslaved, but
in her own Duchy of Austria, she has grown con-
tinually more suspicious and more sanguinary.
She knows well that her crimes of that period will
be remembered with horror and spoken of
with detestation as long as principles of
humanity and justice remain implanted in the
hearts of mankind. There was a cool, wary
circumspection in her sacrifice of victims, which
showed that the destroyed life, not from anY
feeling of political necessity, but from mere blood-

KER TCH JACKET
and EMPEROR'S C APE.—Both these novel inventions
are now before the Public, and are marked ny that distinction always
apparent in the skilful manufactures of E Moses and Sox. The de-
sign, cut, and finish of the KERTCH JACKET is an illustration •f
Business which embraces vast experience in the appropriation of
materials, in the direction of talent, and the manufacture of Gar-
ments, the most gentlemanly in appearance, the most comfortable
and serviceable in wear, and moderate in price.
The EMPEROR'S CAPE is a desideratum for the present and ap-
proaching season. It is the lightest and most graceful Garment
which has been produced; it is thoroughly waterproof, and very
extensively patronised.
The above articles of attire are made only by E. MOSES and SON,
and can only be procured at their Establishment and its Branches,
as follows :

London Establishment —Minories and Aldgate.
West-end Branch—New Oxford-street and Hart-street.
Country Branches—SheMeld and Bradford, Yorkshire.
Colonial Branch (wholesale)—Melbourne, Victoria.
SPORTSMEN AND OTHERS.

Dress for Sportsmen, Tradesmen, Tourists, and others, is offered
by E. MOSES and SON, at their usual moderate prices. The patrons
of their Establishment and its Branches may select from the largest
stock of novelties which has been produced. The Departments for
Ready-made Clothing, Hosiery for Ladies, Gentlemen, and Children.
Hats and Caps, the most fashionable and highly finished, including
the Tourists' and Qportsmens' Hat, a great novelty. Shirts and
Underclothing, Boots and Shoes, tke. Every article the newest and
most approve in excellence, and cheapness unrivalled.
Outfits for Ladies and Gentlemen complete, suitable, superior, and
charged the most reasonable prices. The Wholesale Department
•ffers advantages to Merchants, Captains, and Emigrants. The ex-
tent of the stock, the adaptation of the goods for the Home trade or
the Colonies, and the economical charges, render them the best in-
vestments which can be made.

VIE CHOLERA EPIDEMIC.

Yesterday was issued the report of the Committee for
Scientific Inquiries in relation to the cholera epidemic ,
which reached its height in 1854. This, like the pre-
vious epidemic, extended over portions of two years, and
the deaths in London, which were not very numerous in
1853, slightly exceeded the deaths in 1848. The deaths
by cholera and dia,rrho2a, in 1854 were, however, 5,000
less than the number that would have been told had the
epidemic been as fatal as the epidemic of 1849, allowing
ten per cent. for the increase in the population. In 1849
the deaths from cholera were 14,137 ; from diarrhoea,
3,599 ; making together 18,036. In 1854 the deaths
from cholera were 10,806 ; from diarrhoea, 4,000 ; toge-
ther 14,806 ; showing that the reduction of mortality in
1854, as compared with 1849, was 4,781 deaths from
cholera, and 299 from diarrhoea. The seoond outbreak
began later in the season in the last epidemic than it
did in the epidemic of 1849, and the diminished
figure of the mortality arises from the smaller number
of deaths in the months of July and August. The
disease had lost none of its virulence, and the deaths by
cholera in September, 1854, being 6,084, exceeded the
deaths in September, 1849, by 1,053. The danger of an
attack of cholera varies with age ; thus, at the age of
15-25, out of 100 persons attacked, 34.9 die ; at the age
of 25-35, the deaths to 100 cases are 35.4 ; at 65-75, the
deaths to 100 cases are 58.2. The mortality of cases of
diarrhoea also varies at different ages. The mortality
among the male population was at the rate of 47, among
the female population at the rate of 45 in 10,000. The
council are of opinion that the public apprehension for
the sanitary state of the metropolis should suffer no abate-
ment, but that the most active and complete measures
should be adopted to prevent the approach or to miti-
gate the violence of impending visitations. The council,
in closing their report, snggest that these inquiries, to
be useful, ought to be continued in the absence of the
disease, which they aim at elucidating. It seems cer-
tain, they add, that in the chemistry of organic decom-
position there is concealed a large share of theh mysterym
to be solved, and it is impossible yet to
ach
of the remainder may belong to undeveloped say
how
wranches
of meteorological science. Oppertunit! betters, therefore,
nominal
ought not to be lost for establishing a
chemical
standard than is yet discovered to measure the
and meteorological anomalies of an
epidemic period.

THE WHITE SEA.

The Moniteur publishes the following report,
addressed by Captain Guilbert, commanding the
French frigate Cleopatre, in the White Sea, and
dated June 28 :

"I have the honour to inform you that on the 15th I
arrived before the Bar of Archangel, where I effected
my junction with the English division. The White
Sea became this year free from ice before the end of
May, and several neutral vessels, t‘king advantaue of
the open navigation, repaired to Archangel, and some
even took in cargo and left the port oefore the arrival of
the English. We thought it our duty to address the
consuls, authorising the others to withdraw, either in
ballast or with those portions of their cargo which they
already had taken on board before the first notification
of the blockade. I have reason to believe that all
have now left • they are, for the most part, Norwegians,
Americans, and from Bremen, the latter of considerable
tonnage. All were loaded with corn and flour. The
Danish ship Chase, in favour of which I last year granted
permist•ion to return to Archangel, during the blockade,
on account of serious damage, has now left under safe
conduct.
" The steamers Petrel and Cocyte did not rejoin me
until the 23d, having been delayed by bad weather on
the voyage from Hammerfest."

Doctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of Edin-
burgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society,

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con-
s2quenees resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses,
which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man-
lood, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, any
other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is
lartieularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of
their physical condition, and who are conscious of haying hazarded
the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is
entitled:

It is absolutely necessary that all men should know, that there are
principles of personal management which cannot be violated without
incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed
the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgcnce, how these penalties
,ay bo mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed,
and how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and above all,
that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
ieranoment to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.
rho Author ha: for a series of years been engaged in an extensive
practice in the treatment of these delicate complaints, which have
unfortunately been too generally confided to the care of ignorant
emoirics, who inflict great injury on those who are induced to place
faith in their pretensions.

RUSSIA.

The Military Gazette of Vienna, which, however,
receives its information from Russian sources, pub-
lishes the following letter from Odessa :
"According to letters from Sebastopol of the 22d, it
is not true that the communications between the northern
and southern sides of the town have been interupted, as
stated in the some of the newspapers. The town is
well supplied with provisions ; the storehouses on the
northern side, for example, contain supplies for 300,000
men for a year, and those of the State are actually able
to sell flour to the 8,000 inhabitants of Sebastopol at a
moderate rate. The sick of the hospitals have for the
most part been removed to the interior of the Crimea ;
there are only in the northern fort about 12,000 men,
whose wounds are too serious to permit them to be re-
moved. The cholera does not cause the ravages stated
in several newspapers, and it has nowhere taken an
epidemic character."

Another letter from Odessa, in the Cologne Ga-
zette says on the other hand :—" Both here and
at Nicolaieff the Russians appear to have lost all
hope of preserving Sebastopol."
A letter from St. Petersburg of the 2d, in the
Borsenhalle, says :—" An ordonnance has just been
published fixing the penalties for delay in the pay-
ment of customs duties. Another decree confides
the Ministry of Finance ad interim to M. Norows,
during the absence of M. de Brock. Thirteen go-
vernments of the western part of the empire hare
furnished all their contingents without its being
found necessary to have a supplemental drawing,
and the Emperor ha:s expressed his satisfaction to
the governors on the subject.

WANT OF CANDOUR AND HONESTY IN

MINISTERS.

IPHE EDITOR Or THE SUN.
Sir,—ln. Gibbon's "Decline and Fall of the Roman
Empire" (vol. ii., chap. xiii.), the Emperor Diocletian's
opinie,n of " Ministers " is thus recorded :
" How often is it the interest of four or five Ministers
to combine together to deceive their sovereign ! Secluded
from mankind by his exalted dignity, the truth is con-
cealed from his knowledge ; he can see only with their
eyes, he hears nothing but their misrepresentations. He
confers the most important offices upon vice and weak-
ness, and disgraces the most virtuous and deserving
among his subjects. By such infamous arts (adds Dio-
cletian) the best and wisest princes are sold to the venal
corruption of their courtiers."

How applicable is this statement to Ministers of the
present day 1 For in how many recent instances have
not important offices, honours and rewards, been con-
ferred on incompetency, on weakness, and even on
treachery and vice—whilst disgrace has been the award
of others who have honestly and gallantly served .their
country and their Queen.—l am, &c. ARGUS.

COWES, ISLE OF WIGHT.-Aug. 13.

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)

ROYAL YACHT SQUADRON REGATTA.—THIRD DAY.
The following cutter yachts have been entered for the
Royal Yacht Squadron Cup, which is to be sailed for on
Wednesday next :—Bacchante, B. H. Jones, Esq., 80
tons ; Laverock, Captain C. H. Williams, R.N., 72
tons ; Gondola, Thos. Hughan, Esq., 87 tons ; Aurora,
Le Marchant Thomas, Esq., 60 tons.
Her Majesty drove through West Cowes in an open
phmton, with the Princess Royal, Lady Desart, and Miss
Seymour, attended by General Bowles on horseback,
this afternoon. They passed across the Parade and
along the new esplanade to Egypt, thence by Dottens,
and returned by the Newport road.
The town is filling with company, the roadstead with
yachts.

The Town Regatta to-morrow commences at one
o'clock, and much sport is expected.
The fireworks on Friday will exceed anything of the
kind ever displayed here, as her Majesty will be in the
roads in the Royal yacht, from which, and the steam
squadron that is to accompany her to France, a great
display will be made, as well as from the R.Y.S. yachts
and from the fixed pieces on the Parade.
