The Cholera in Paris.

(REUTER'S EXPRESS.)
PARIS, Nov. 7.
The following is the article published by the Union
Medicale upon the decrease of cholera in Paris, the
accuracy of which is guaranteed by the Moniteur :
" Certainly the cholera is leaving us, not sud-
denly, to return as before, as was observed in pre-
ceding epidemics, but gradually, still making some
victims, chiefly among the imprudent and careless ;
and, it must be said, since it redounded to the honour
of courage and charity, sometimes among those who,
either pursuing their profession or from devotion,
unceasingly and zealously succour the unfortunate
persons attacked by the scourge. Honour to these
noble victims !

" To-day, 6th November, the epidemic is in full
decline. Let alarm, therefore, cease, but without
forgetting salutary precautions. The enemy is
retreating, without doubt, but do not let us brave
its pickets, for the impatient may yet pay with life
for the imprudence of their conduct.

"To this end we earnestly urge our colleagues
not to cease their surveillance over their clients, ncr
be too much inclined generally to disregard medical
counsels as the scourge disappears.
„ On the Ist November the total number of deaths

'rom cholera in the city and the hospitals was no
more than 92 ; on the 2d, 80 ; on the 3d, 75 ; and
on the 4th, 70. This diminution, from the very
fact of its being hardly perceptible but continuous,
is of most favourable augury.
The civil and
military hospitals only appears for about a
fourth of the total fatal cases. Three
fourths of the deaths took place at the homes of the
persons attacked, and very probably among indivi-
duals who, despite the reiterated counsels of the
administration and the doctors, disregard all recom-
mendations, and fall victims to their incredulity and
carelessness. The number of admissions to the
hospitals has been parallel with the decrease above-
mentioned, and the number of interior cases has
similarly diminished. The epidemic appears, there-
fore, to be fairly working itself out, and in a few
days, without doubt, the mortality of the city of
Paris will have returned within its ordinary limits.
If the epidemic there arrests its ravages, it will have
been merciful in comparison with previous invasions,
and we shall be justified in attributing this sub-
dued character to the sanitary improvements
effected, and to the disappearance of
the numerous insalubrious quarters of old
Paris, in which the epidemics of 1832
and 1849 made so many victims. The sanitary
measures prescribed by the Administration, executed
quietly and without that parade which attracts pub-
lic attention, have not passed without observation
and gratitude from those who, by duty and profes-
fession, are bound to be attentive observers of the
good and thoughtful management of public relief
and hygienic measures. Finally, the good counte-
nance preserved before this French invasion of the
Asiatic scourge, and the courage of the immense
majority of the Paris population, following the
august example afforded them, have certainly not
faled to exercise an influence with respect to the
unimportant character and rapid disappearance of
the malady.

Colonel and Lady llarriet Lane have arrived at
Brown's Hotel.
