THE CHOLERA IN WARSAW.

The Hamburger Nachrichten publishes the fol-
lowing correspondence from Warsaw, dated 20th
instant :

" The average number of deaths in the city, in its nor-
mal state of health, is 13 or 14; since the appearance of
the cholera the number buried daily amounts to nearly
200. If the city were bombarded with grape-shot from
the citadel it could not be more fatally d:cimated. The
observations of our medical men prove that it is not only
those who live on improper diet that are swept away—
the most moderate and prudent also fall sacrifices to the
disease, and often in three or six hours. The physi-
cians are quite confounded, and know not what to do, as
the pest has this time defied the treatment founded on
former experience of it, Whoever can do so avoid the
use of fish, potatoes, and raw fruit. Tea, Madeira, and
Bordeaux are recommended as drinks, with the exclu-
sion of all other fermented liquors; the brewers have
nothing to do. Up to the present time the southern
and eastern Governments of the kingdom (of Poland)
have not been visited by the disease; from hence
it is taking the direction, over Posen and Silesia, to
the wc3f."

On the 18th there were 420 new cases, of which
186 were fatal ; 226 recovered ; 1,482 remained
under treatment. On the 19th there was a decrease
in the number attacked, but it hes been noticed that
the cases are always more numerous at the beginning
of the week than to wards its close, the increase being
ascribed to the greater excess in which a great mass
of the population indulge in drinking on Sundays.
On the last-mentioned date there were 296 new cases,
deaths 162, recovered 234; remaining under treat-
ment 1,382.

Apartments have been prepared in all the principal
streets to which persons attacked could be instantly
carried, as the loss of time in transporting them to a
dist^nt hospital or the own houses was frequently
fatal.

The latest returns are of the 20th and 21st, when
there were attacked, on the 20th, 279, died 146, and
recovered 198 ; on the 21st there were 216 new cases,
104 died, and 250 recovered. There remainel under
treatment 1,179.
