CHOLERA AT SUNDERLAND.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

-

Sin,—The cholera report from Sunderland is this day
more favourable, though the disease still appears slowly to
advance. There are only two deaths of malignant cho-
lera, but there are three new cases. Notwithstanding, it
is my conscientious belief that the nature of this complaint
is unhappily the same as that which has spread over the
Continent, modified by the climate, and the food and habits
of the people, yet I freely acknowledge there are circum-
stances in which it differs from the Asiatic cholera. The
most striking of these is the difference of time that a person
affected with the disease survives. In India, for instance,
the usual time a fatal case of cholera lasts is, I am in-
formed on good authority, from two to four hours : in
Sunderland the attack has occasionally continued with in-
dividuals for as many days. This, in the estimation of
some persons, is an argument against its being the foreign
cholera; in my opinion it is sufficiently accounted for by
the difference in climate and in the mode of living. But
in another important particular it is even worse, as far as
my observation extends, than the foreign cholera : I refer
to the number of persons who recover. At Hamburg I
think nearly one-half of those who are assailed by the
disease recover : in Sunderland, I believe not one-third of
those who are attacked by the malignant cholera recover.
This is a point for serious consideration.
A very scandalous false statement is put forth in the
Standard London Paper of Saturday the 19th inst.,
possibly from some insiduous Anti-Reform motive;
namely, an assertion that the cholera has appeared at New-
castle and Stockton. Both towns are happily exempt
hitherto from its assault. As respects Newcastle, I cannot
give you abetter voucher than is conveyed in the words of
a certificate which is issued every hour of the day by the
Collector of the Customs to ships on their clearing the
port. It is as follows These are to certify, that at
the time of the said clearance there is not the slightest
suspicion of the existence of cholera at this port.
44 --- , Collector."

Nothing can well be more ridiculous than the system
which appears to have been adopted by several of the
London Journals on the subject of this disease, of freely
giving publicity to any thing and every thing that comes
to hand, without their knowing any thing of the respecta-
bility of their correspondents.
Either Dr. Russell or Dr. Barry is expected hourly to
arrive in Sunderland, if not arrived already.
I am, Sir, your obedient servant,
A MEMBER OF THE NEWCASTLE
BOARD OF HEALTH.
Newcastle-on-Tyne, Monday Night, Nov. 21.

Those who profess to be in the secret an-
nounce that it is the intention of Ministers to convert the
Reform Bill into three, some say into five, distinct Bills_
that i., making the contents of each schedule a separate
enactment, and the new constituency another. This
certainly would place some of the Anti-Reformers in both
Houses in an awkward dilemma ; for, though the aboli-
lition of their darling rotten boroughs is what they really
deplore, it is the enfranchising part of the late Bill on
which they found it most convenient to expend the weigh
of their opposition,—Morning Herald.
THE CIloLERA.—There is one circumstance
relating to the disease prevalent at Sunderland, which me-
rits consideration. In the medical returns from the place,
three complaints are mentioned, namely—diarrhoea, com-
mon cholera, and malignant cholera. In referring to
the returns from Vienna, Berlin, and Hamburg, we find
that the spasmodic or Indian cholera is alone mentioned,
and is it not, therefore, probable that the three complants
prevailing at Sunderland have precisely the same type or
basis, but modified according to the mode of living or con-
stitution of the patients? It would be very satisfactory if
the physicians, in their communications, were, therefore,
to state the general mode of living of the persons before
they were attacked, their pursuits in life, the situation as
to the air and cleanliness where they reside, as being infor-
mation most useful and necessary to be made public as a
guide to health.

The scarlet fever has for some time past been
raging to a great extent in the town of Hawick, but it is
generally confined to children, and young persons, many
of whom have been very suddenly cut off by the malady.

Nothing could exceed the delight of the
Tories on its being announced, in one of their own jour-
nals, on Sunday, that the KING, ir.stead of holding a
Council at Brighton, as was expected, would be in town
for that purpose on Monday ; and this delight was con-
verted into almost savage transport when the arrival of
his MAJESTY confirmed the previous rumour. Between ills
few hours of the KING'S arrival and departure numerous
were the reports set on foot by the agents of the borough-
mongers. "The KING is come to town to dismiss the
Ministers"—" Parliament is to be dissolved"—" Lord
LymilinusT has been sent for." These and similar an-
nouncements, of which their wishes were the parents,
spread like wildfire amongst them. But, alas ! how short
and fleeting are Tory hopes ! Scarcely had there " lies
circumstantial " got currency than the whole vanished
" into thin air," at the sight of the Proclamation calling
Parliament together " for the dispatch of business," on
Tuesday se'nnight; and the poor defeated spreaders of
them shrunk again into themselves. The real history of
the KING'S coining to St. James's, instead of holding
the Council at Brighton, we believe, resolves it into no-
thing more than this—that it affords a fresh instance of the
KING'S spirit of self-devotion, and a wish to accommodate
others, at whatever personal inconvenience to himself.
His 'MAJESTY is said to have declared that' it was much
easier for one person to move than so many, and to have
been, in a great measure, influenced by the state of Earl
GEEY'S health, to whom much bodily exertion is forbidden
by his medical attendants.—Morning Herald.
GEORGE LUCY, Esq., High Sheriff of this
county, has received a communication from Viscount
AIELBOURNE, informing him that the county address, on
the subject of Reform, lately voted to his MAJESTY, had
been presented, and received in the most gracious manner.
Earl GREY, in acknowledging the gratification of himself
and colleagues at the very flattering expression of confi-
dence and approbation of the meeting, observes—" I
trust it is unnecessary for me to add, that there will be
no deviation on the part of the KING'S Government from
the great principles of Reform on which the Bill lately
rejected by the House of Lords was founded ; and that
they have received, with all the deference which is due to
them, the statement of the opinions prevailing at the
meeting at which you presided as High Sheriff.—Bir-
mingham Gazette.
BISHOP PIIILLPOTS.--.-EXETER, Nov. 21.
—Our sth of November fete was the dullest ever wit-
nessed, and so far from the Bishop being a subject of at-
tack, he passes through our streets with perfect freedom ;
the tone of indifference and . with which he is re-
garded being precisely of that description that would pre-
vent any personal annoyance being displayed towards him.
He is a perfect type of insignificance, without the
ability of doing iiii.ch good, and too well known to affect
much evil. He has taken our Tory Corporation under
his apostolic wing, doing them the great dis-service of pa-
tronising them. But his efforts to maintain the union
that has hitherto existed between the Church and that
illustrious body have been somewhat ineffectual. The
ultra Tories of the Corporation have no respect for him at
heart, and show their want of it in their actions. The
two or three Liberals who have somehow or other obtained
admission into that body, treat him as honest men must do,
and Bishop PHILLPOTTS finds the mitre an uneasy cover-
ing for an aching heal. He has presided at two or three
religious meetings since his vote against the Bill, but his
great name has failed even in drawing an audience. To-
day he takes the Chair at the Guildhall, for the benefit of
the Episcopal Sunday Schools, and will, in all probability,
have the gratifying task of addressing a very limited au-
dience ; the Clergy are his principal attendants.—Morn-
ing Herald.
SIR C. WETHERELL AND THE BIRMING-
HAM UNION.—A correspondent states that Mr..ATTWOOD
laid the rules of this society before Sir C. WETHERELL
Previous to its being constituted, and received his legal
opinion that they were not opposed to any known law.
This does not accord well with Sir CriaaLEs's bitter and
nwhich, it will be recollected, he addressed
tufa
oLoir remarks,rdALTll. and Lord J. RUSSELL, a few days pre-
vious to the prorogation of Parliament, in reference to the
Birmingham Union,

The forthcoming « Travels in the North of
Europe in 1830-31," by Mr. ELLIOTT, will, it is said,
furnish a more detailed description of the wild and pictu-
resque scenes y, of the natural productions, and of the man-
ners and customs of the inhabitants of Norway and Sweden
than has been given by any recent traveller. The naira-
tive of the author's personal adventures in spots far removed
from civilized society, (havipg on one occasion passed four
days and nights in a wilderness,) is, we are told, of the
most romantic kind. The account of his subsequent tra-
vels in Russia, and more particularly of his visit to that
city of palaces, St. Petershurgh—cud of his residence at
Moscow, during the prevalence of the cholera, will doabt-
less be read with great interest. The work is announced
for inaruecliAte publicatio.

THE ENGLISH GIRL.

This is a companion to the " Dutch Girl," and is
engraved by Doo, from a painting by Newton. As
a work of art it is highly creditable to the talents of
Mr. Doo, who has done ample justice to the grace,
and delicacy, and character, which the painter has
thrown into the countenance of the fair English-
woman. The soft, silky, appearance is most feli-
citously preserved, and the engraving, ea a whole,
executed with much care.
