THE CHOLERA.

(Prom the General Board of health.)
3IARYLEBONE.
A death, registered diarrhoea, 5 days, and English
cholera, 2 days, occurred on the Bth inst., at 19, Car-
burton-street, Fitzroy-square. Six families reside in
the house, which is dirty and dilapidated. The back
Yard is in a very offensive condition. There is a filthy
open privy in the front cellar ; the soil is on a level with
the floor.

In the front area is.the water butt, without any cover-
ing or lid. The water is so impure that the inmates of
the house have repeatedly complained to the landlord,
but nothing has been done. The week before last the
putrid carcase of a cat was found within the butt.
The deceased attributed his illness to the horrible
effluvia from this privy, which remains uncorrected. A
child has had a severe attack of choleraic diarrhcea, in
the house.
Many of the localities in this parish, Marylebone, are
deseribed to be in a most unwholesome and dangerous
condition.

NEWCASTLE.
A. table drawn up by the board exhibits in a striking
Manner the impression made upon the disease by the
house-to-house visitation. Taking three periods, the
first from the 21st to the 25th of Sept. (5 days), the
second from the 26th to the 30th (5 days), and the third
from Oct. Ist to the Bth (8 days), it appears that while
diarrhcea continued to prevail extensively, and the cases
approaching cholera remained numerous, the cases of
Cholera were reduced from 67 in the first period to 28 in
the second, and to 6in the third. In the first period
the daily averages of the different classes of cases were :
'Diarrhoea, 504.6 ; approaching cholera, 73.2; cholera,
67.8 ; deaths from cholera, 64 ; from diarrhcea, 2.4.
&trend period :—Cases of diarrhcea, 520 ; 'approaching
Cholera, 54.6 ; cholera, 28.4 ; deaths from cholera, 32.8 ;
from diarrhcea, 3. Third period :—Cases of diarrhcea,
297.5 ; approaching cholera, 19.9 ; cholera, 6.75 ; deaths
from cholera, 9 ; diarrhcea, 1.6.
Of the total number who have perished by the epi-
demic in this town, it appears that little more than one-
seventh were under 15 years of age. while one-four-
teenth were above 60 years of age. Up to this time it
'would appear from the returns that about 1,000 able-
bodied persons have been destroyed.
The average age of all whose ages have been returned
up to this time is 331 years.

LIVERPOOL.
From the Bth to the 10th of October, there have
°ceurred 26 new cases of cholera. Of these 18 were
ernlan emigrants (chiefly passengers by the Isaac

118e, and 4 residents of the town. Twelve deaths
e taken place, viz., 7 Getman, and 1 Irish erni-
ot ; 1 inmate of the workhouse, and 3 residents of
"tie town (all in the same street). Three of the German
Liatieats were from an emigrant ship, the Emma Field,
lying in the river with between 400 and 500 passen-
gers aboard. No other case of sickness has been dis-
covered among them, but they are carefully watched.
wlt la stated that the parish authorities have taken a
arehouse shed in 'William-street as an hospital for the
th, end of the town, and are endeavouring to secure
allnilar accommodation to the south end. They have

DARLINGTON.
On the 10th Dr. W. Lewis,
accompanied by the poor-
law inspector, visited Darlington and met the guardians,
who, on the suggestion of these officers, ordered forth-
with a house-to-house visitation, with a view of ascer-
taining the amount of diarrhoea prevailin in the town,
and whether any and what additional preventive mea-
sures may be required. On the same there. was a
full meeting of the magistrates to take into considerationdderation

neighbourhood of dwelling-houses. After much discouss!
sion the magistrates appeared to be divided in opinion,
and appealed to Dr. Lewis, who decided against the
pigs, whereupon it was ordered that the pigs should be
removed, the offender in this particular case being fined
405., and ss. a day from the day notice was given.

MIDDLESBOROUGH.
The result of one day's house-to-house visitation n
this place, made by the resident medical men, was the
discovery of 78 diarrhceal cases, to nip which in the bud,
and thus to prevent, if possible, any outbreak of cholera,
it has been determined to appoint two house-to-house
visitors to devote themselves entirely to the work of visi-
tation.

STOCKTON.
By the vigorous measures employed a decided impres-
sion has been made on the disease in this place. Several
entire families have been removed to comfortable apart-
ments belonging to the workhouse, and no illness has
in any one instance manifested itself among those that
have been removed. Another remarkable fact is stated.
Dr. Lewis is said personally to have exerted himself to
persuade a certain family to remove, as other families
had done. His exertions were seconded by those of
some of the town authorities. One of the children of
this family had died on Sunday. The father and mother
were told that if they remained there during Sunday
night more of the ohildren would surely suffer. Unfor-
tunately no representation was of any avail : they re-
fused to move. On Monday another child was seized
with cholera and died the same day.

THE SEAMAN'S HOSPITAL.—The committee of this
institution have just issued a notice to captains o ships
and seamen generally, enjoining them to send every
hospital ship lying near the Dreadnought, off Green-
, which is to be kept open at all hours for the pur-
Pose, and not to detain men on board until the pre-
Monitory symptoms have passed.

1851 there were four French schools for Jewish boys,
and one for girls. The criminal statistics for the year
1850 give 415 accused-249 Christians, 150 Mussu,.
laans, 26 Jews ; in 1851, among 271 accused, 143
Christians, 100 Mussulmans, 28 Jews. The ministerial
report makes no mention of the charitable institutions of
t'le Jews.—Jesvish. Chronicle.
NEW ZEALAND.—The New Zealand papers last re-
ceived supply us with official accounts of the revenue
and trade of the colony, from which it appears that the
revenue of Auckland for the last four years, ending
1852, has been pretty stationary, at
from 19,5001. to

now about 6,000 tons of shipping belonging to the port
9f Auckland, and a most profitable trade is carried on
.!11 grain, roots, timber, &c., with Sydney and Mel-
bourne. Australian gold has placed considerable means
in the hands of the colonists, and, although labour has
been scarce and dear, the spirit of the people and the
fertility of the soil may be determined from the fact that,
