REV. MR. IRVING AND THE CHOLERA.

SIK,—As public attention is much excited with respect
to the cholera, the following prophecy, put forth by the
Rev. Mr. Irving, in an extemporary discourse on the 19th
October, may prove interesting to your numerous readers :
Civil war and pestilence are abroad; but have faith, my
brethren. The cholera shall rage throughout the country, and it
will approach to the very gates of our city, but it will not enter."
It will be observed, that the Rev. Gentleman has taken
care of himself as a resident in the city. and so far we hope
his prophecy will be fulfilled, but in other respects, that he
may be as much in error as most of his infatuated followers.
Yours, J. I'.

WARWICK, Nov. 10.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE S UN.

Stu,—After the surprise and indignation expressed at
our county meeting, on Tuesday last, at the disposition of
troops in the vicinity of the county town, it is but fair
you should be acquainted with the names of the Borough
Magistrates, under whose direction, we presume, the mili-
tary and constabulary precautions took place. They are
as follows:

" EDWARD DODD, Esq., Mayor of Warwick ; tenant of the
Earl of Warwick, and voted at the last election for Sir

Charles Greville, Lord Warwick's brother, the Anti-Reform

candidate.
" KELYNGE GREENWAY, Esq., Alderman, Treasurer to the
Corporation, and his brother, George Cattell Greenway, Esq.,

Foreman of the Leet Jury, polled at the last election for Sir

Charles Greville.
" 'THOMAS JONES, &q., Mayor at the last election, and conse.
quently did not vote : appointed N. G. Clarke, Fq., a de.

cided Tory, Assessor.
" Jolts WILMSIIURST, Esq., Alderman, surgeon to the War.
wick Militia, commanded by Lord Warwick, and voted at

the last election for Sir Charles Greville.
" TimmAs COLLINS, Esq., Alderman, a firm friend of Reform,
and voted at the last election for the Reform candidates, John
Tomes and Edward Bolton King, Esqrs."
You see, Mr, Editor, four to one against Reform. I
make no comnients.—Your's, most obediently,

AN OLD CORRESPONDENT.

The following is an extract from a letter of Mr.
O'Connell, which appeared in the Dublin Register
of Monday :
" It is quite true, that after the audacious rejection of
the Reform Bill by the Oligarchs and Bishop's in the
House of Lords, and particularly after the manly and most
emphatic condemnation of the Irish Government by Lord
Ebrington, it was expected that the Whig Administration
would at length take in England a course of manly hosti-
lity towards their enemies and of manful support of their
friends.

" It was also believed that the policy of the Irish Go-
vernnment would be totally changedthat it would be-
come the reverse of what it had hitherto been—that the
faction would be tranquilly but firmly put down, and that
the people should be conciliated, not only by the exclusion
from every office of their avowed enemies, but by giving
power to their friends, and not allowing such power to
slumber for one moment, but by putting it into immediate
operation for the redress of our multifarious and frightful
grievances, and the abolition of corporate, ecclesiastical,
military, judicial, and other abuses. It was further be-
lieved that Mr. Stanley would not return to Ireland (and
a worse foe to Ireland, in my solemn conviction, never
came to this country),—and, lastly, it was taken for
granted that Lord Angleaea would either call fur a suc-
cessor, or, if he remained--and as he must be governed by
somebody—that he would at length permit himself to be
led by honest Irishmen, in the place of the creatures who
now regulate his political movements.

Sed Diis aliter visum ! !!

" The day-dream is gone by—tltehoPe is faded before it
assumed tangible shape or form—the old system is in its
vigour the paltry corporators are unpunished—the Tory
Attorney-General, whose dependents, friends, and rela-
tives all, all voted in Meath as in Dublin against the Re-
form, as well as Ministerial candidates, remains in office,
nut promoted off or dismissed. The yeomanry are all un-
disartnal—the police unmitigated—the most violent and
bitterest enemies of the conscientious privileges of the
people may be found amongst the county Lord Lieutenants
—Stanley is coming over again—the magistracy --
" Under these approaching circumstances, some friends
of mine thought, and indeed I was almost—though never
quite—of the opinion that I might accept office to aid in
the change. I was the more near being of this opinion,
because I could, if my principles were not at once put into
an active train, be able to fling that office in the faces or
at the feet of those who gave it to me. Such were the
ideas floating on my mind, whilst one could reasonably
hope for a just and Irish Government in Ireland.
" But why should I follow the heart.rendering cata-
logue ?—Stanley, with all his prejudices and passions, is
coining over again. More need not be said—l take this
one fact as a declaration by the Ministry of a renewed war
upon all that the people of Ireland have clung to of hope
or rational expectation."

The " Originalities of Brighton," we under-
stand, are to form the subject of a II eries of papers in the
ensuing ❑umbers of the Court Journal, that " Winter
world for the great," is to be forthwith exhibited in all its
glory. The field is a wide one for the stor Mist as well
as the satirist ; for it is certain that Bath in its best days
never displayed such a choice of fashionable society as
Brighton at the present Wale.

of tiYi stud to improve the physical condition
(.1041 e Poorer classes, there is a likelihood of
g far more good than can be effected by
th:
.3uarantine regulations. Experience upon
Banontinent has shown the utter inefficacy of
preStory cordons, and the rest of the vexatious
au
which were adopted in Germany, to
of hindrance of all business, and the molestation
the
t evs.ery
uenjoyment of life. We trust, that if
..I.lhsease should unhappily spread, the Privy
lithen,eil will reconsider those clauses of the pub•
ptevil t re
b b ations, whereby it is designed to
en arylltii intercourse with places where the

malady has shown itself. The very consternation
of having several towns placed under the ban of
quarantine, would fill people's minds with the
idea of Cholera so exclusively, as to induce
infection, in all probability, to their bodies.
Besides, such a remedy would be a thousand

times worse than the disease itself, since it would
paralyze industry and commerce, and impede
the ordinary interchange of that communication,
without which life is a mere journey through a
wilderness. It is perfectly impossible, in a
country like this, to place an effectual restraint
on the intercourse of one part of the population
with the other ; and, therefore, we earnestly
entreat the Government not to persist, without
the strongest grounds, in the intention of any
thing like a system of internal quarantine. Let
us meet the disease boldly, by fortifying the
people against the causes which predispose them
to its attacks, and, having done our best to that
end, let us await the event with cheerful minds,
and with a modest confidence in the providence
of GOD.

The proceedings of the first general meeting
of the National Political Union, which took
place last night at the Crown and Anchor, will
be read with much interest. Sir F. BURDETT,
who presided, addressed the assembly in a speech
admirably suited to the occasion, in which he
strenuously insisted on the necessity of union
among all classes for the furtherance of the great
question of Reform, and as strenuously com-
bated the idea that there was such an institution
as a middle class, opposed from prejudices, in-
terests, or inclination to the wants and wishes of
the other grades of the community. " Let the
declaration," said the Hon. Baronet, " of this
Union be such that all may join it." We heartily
coincide with the justice and spirit of this proposi-
tion. The National Political Union should be so
framed as to include all who are desirous of fur-
thering the cause of Reform, in one influential
confederacy ; otherwise no great public advan-
tage can be gained, for to institute one Union
for the middling, and another for the work-
ing-classes, is to sow the seeds of discord
among the Reformers, and thereby increase
the strength of the common enemy. All Re-
formers, no matter of what grade or standing
in society, should row in the same boat, have
their attention steadily and constantly fixed on
one cardinal point. If the middling classes ad-
here to one thing, and the lower—as the Ultra
Aristocrats in their lordly affectation of supe-
riority have been pleased to style them—to
another, and neither choose to come to

terms of agreement, what is in reason
to be expected but a decided triumph
for the boroughinongers, and their holy allies
the Bishops The people should ever bear in
mind, consider it as an amulet of faith, that
Reform is to be gained only by union—by a
prompt and energetic union of all classes.—
The country goes forth to battle against one
common enemy—the enemy alike of the mer-
chant, the tradesman, the mechanic, and the
labourer—but if the spirit of dissension is
to make its appearance in the patriotic
host, is it to be wondered at, nay, is it
not to be expected, that the country's foe
should triumph ? Away then with the absurd
distinctions—distinctions, at best, without a
difference—between the middling and lower
classes ; both have but one common end
to gain, both should be equally unani-
mous and resolute to attain that common
end. Mr. SHEIL'S remarks on this point
are well worthy of attention. The Honourable
Member was himself, for years, one of the most
active and spirited of the Catholic agitators, and
consequently speaks from long personal expe-
rience when he insists on the necessity of Union.

The following are extracts from the Allge-
meine Zeitung and Frankfort Papers of the 4th
instant, which give detailg of an extraordinary
hail shower that has lately taken place at Con.
stantinople:—

CONSTANTINOPLE, OCT. 10.—On the .sth instant a
natural phenomenon, such as few persons remember, and
the effects of which have been most destructive, filled with
terror the inhabitants of this country, who are at the same
time suffering under all kinds of evils. After an uncom-
monly sultry night threatening clouds rose, about six in the
morning, in the horizon to the south and west, and a
noise`between thunder and tempest, and yet not to be
compared with either, increased every moment, and the
inhabitants of the capital, roused from their strife, awaited
with anxious expectation the issue of this threatening
phenomenon. Their uncertainty was not of long dura-
tion ; lumps of ice as large as a roan's foot filling first
singly, and then like a thick shower of stones, which de-
stroyed every thing that ttey came in contact with. The
oldest persons do not remember ever to have seen such hail-
stones. Some were picked up half an hour a,terwards
which weighed above a pound. This dreadful storm
passed over Constantinople and along the Bosphorus,
over Therapia, Bujukdere, and Belgrade, and the
fairest, nay the only hope of this beautiful and fe:tile
tract, the vintage just commenced, was destroyed
in a day. Animals of all kinds, and even some per-
sons, are said to have been killed, an innumerable quan-
tity are wounded, and the damage done to the houses is in-
calculable. Besides, that scarcely a window has escaped
in all the country, the force of the falling masses of ice was
so great, that they broke to atoms all the tiles on the roof.,
and shattered like musket balls planks half an inch thick.
Since that day the rain has not ceased to pour down in
torrents, and from the slight way in which the houses are
built, almost wholly consisting of windows, and with very
flat roofs that have nothing to keep off the wet besides
tiles, innumerable families are not much more comfortable
than in a bivouac. If, in addition to this, we consider
that in consequence of the burning of Pera, and the great
fires in Constantinople itself, many have no shelter what- I
ever, and recollect besides the plague, which continues
to spread, tad the cases of cholera which still occur, both
together indeed make the whole a most gloomy picture.
The delay which has taken place in rebuilding the houses
bernt down is not yet remedied, because the directions
have not yet been published which are to obviate the de-
fects of the mode of building hitherto practised, and to
afford greater security against fire; and, however injurious
this delay may be to many an unsheltered family, it may
be easily accounted without imputing blame to the Go-
vernment, which has to contend with innumerable ob-
stacles in the introduction of any, even the most useful
innovation. The houses taken front the Catholic Arme-
nians at the time of the persecution, most of which are in
ruins, have been restored to them.
A journal in the Turkish and French languages will
shortly be published here, by order of the Sultan, and tin-
der the especial direction of a Commission appointed for
that purpose. The prospectus of this journal, which is to
be published once a week, has been printed in the Turkish
language, and distributed among the public.
ST. PETERSBURGII, OCr. V.—The journals contain a
very long report from Prince Paskewitsch on the storming
and taking of Warsaw. The report, which details all the
operations of the two days, concludes with an account of
the cannon, &c., which fell into the hands of the Russians.
Among them ara 132 pieces of cannon, two millions of
cartridge:, a vast quantity of military stores of every de-

geription, immense magazines of provisions, including ten
thousand chetwerts of oats. In the city, under the ar-
senal, a cannon-foundry, a powder-mill, and saltpetre-ma-
nufactory ; several manufactories of arms, in which twelve
thousand muskets were nearly finished : there was an hos-
pital, with eleven thousand patients, most of them wounded
Poles. During the action three thousand prisoners were
taken, among whom were sixty staff and superior officers;
many more must have perished during the attack by the
burning of the buildings, and the destructive fire of our
numerous artillery, which, during the two days, expended
twenty-nine thousand cartridges. Besides the above•men-
tioned prisoners, above four thousand soldiers of the Po-
lish army have come to us, and one thousand two hundred
Generals and officers have quitted the ranks and the service
of the insurgents. Our loss during the two days' desperate
conflict could not be small. Among the killed are Major-
Generals Van Briegen and Jesimawitsch, ansi nine
Colonels, eight Generals (among whom is Count Witt),
and twelve Colonels received wounds or contusions.
The Artillery had forty stiff and superior officers killed
and wounded, among whom are eight Commanders of
brigades or companies; 100 artillerymen are killed, and
300 wounded ; 800 artillery horses were killed, and eight
powder-waggons blown up. The whole loss of the army
is 3 000 killed, including 63 officers, and 7,500 wounded,
including 445 officers. Half of the latter have already
joined their regiments again, and it is to be hoped that a
great number of the wounded soldiers will soon be able to
return to the ranks.

VIENNA, OCT. 28.—Letters from Lemberg say that
General Rudiger has repeatedly demanded that the remains
of the Polish army, which have sought refuge in our ter-
ritory, should be given up, but this demand has been re-
fused by the Emperor's commands.
Several Generals of the Polish army, Romarino, Lang-
ermann, &c. are now at Brunn ; all receive daily from our
Government twelve francs, the slime as prisoners of war ;
most of them have, however, declined this assistance.
The French receive passports to go to France, by way of
Iglan and Ratisbon. The Poles are at liberty to choose
a place of residence in the Austrian States.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

It is reported from Deal that our fleet i❑ the Downs
have received orders to sail again to the Dutch coast. The
Dutch steamer has arrived, and brings letters from Holland
of the Bth, by which it appears that the Dutch Govern-
ment have sent orders to fortify all the forts along the
Scheldt, to prevent our fleet from committing hostilities ;
they also repeat that the orange flag has been hoisted in
the province of Luxemburg ; but with all these demon-
strations of war on the part of the Dutch, their Funds have
improved l 4 per cent., which brings them up to 441.
The French mail arrived late, consequently the letters
have not yet been delivered.
A Leeward Island mail has arrived, which sailed on the
6th October; it brings an account of another gale in the
West Indies, but it was not of so very disastrous a nature
as the preceding one. According to accounts from St.
Thomas's, it appears that a serious revolt of the Negroes had
taken place in the island of Tortola, who demanded their
liberty, and refused to work on the estates. Had their
plan not been frustrated every white man in the island
would have been massacred, and the place set on fire; the
inhabitants were obliged to send to St. Thomas's for assist-
ance, and a Danish brig was immediately dispatched, and
many have been taken prisoners.
To the present time we have no further accounts in the
city in regard to the cholera at Sunderland, and it is use-
less to give vague reports on the subject. In the course of
the day no doubt we shall have official information from
the Board of Health.

Our-
Funds are rather heavy this morning, owing to
the report that the King of Holland still continues obsti-
nate, and refuses to sign the twenty-four articles ; but the
well-informed are still of opinion that when our answer
reaches him, in regard to the explanation he required in
some of the articles, which is said to have been despatched
yesterday to the Hague, he will not delay long to comply
with the request of the Five Powers.
Consols, which left otf yesterday at 82,1 sellers, Opened
at the same price, soon after went down to 82; at present
they are 84 and little doing. At present the Foreign
Market is rot worth noticing.
We just learn that there are accounts this morning from
Sunderland, from a medical gentleman, stating that the
cases are very alarming, particularly amongst the lower
classes there. One man was taken ill at four o'clock, and
died at ten.

HALF-PAST ONE.
'We copy the following from a French Paper, received
by the mail :
" In a Council held at Brussels, M. Van de Weyer
gave perfect assurances that the King of Holland would
accept the 21 articles ; in proof of which he read the fol-
lowing extract of a letter which he had just received from
Prince Talleyrand

" Just as lam closing my letter, I have received com-
munications from my agents at the Hague, from which I
learn, that if no unforeseen circumstances occur to those
obstacles in the way of the determination of King William,
the twenty-four articles will be presented to the States-
General on the 6th or Bth at latest, and the discussions
will terminate on the adoption of the treaty, although it
will be carried by a very small majority.'"
Our Funds are declining in consequence of the unfli•
vourable accounts from Sunderland. We have it stated
that there Las been in the whole, by the last accounts,
forty-seven cases. This is only report at present. Consols,
which were in the early part of the morning at 821, have
receded to 8 82, at which .price they are at present.
The above information has rather cast a damp in the city.
The public are anxiously waiting for the official if:forma-
tion from the Board of Health.

By letters from Berlin this morning it is stated that two
thousand persons have died there of the cholera since its
commencement, and that there has not been one Jew
amongst them, owing to their abstemious way of living.

CHOLERA AT SUNDERLAND.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SI R,-I have just seen a letter from a highly
respectable individual of Sunderland, on the
subject of the cholera: He mentions the deaths
of six persons of this complaint, namely, Elli-
more, a pilot, aged 60, on the Gth Nov.;
Stafford, aged 47, on the 7th Nov. ; Bolam,
aged 45, on the 7th ; Mrs. Wilson, aged 24, on
the Bth ; Mrs. Wardle (the person seen by the
deputation of medical men from Newcastle,
mentioned in my letter of yesterday) on the Bth ;
and Mrs. Nicholson on the Bth. These are
not all new cases, and I cannot with certainty
state which have occurred since the deputation
left Sunderland on Monday night, but assuming
their account that there were up to that time,
from first to last, fifteen deaths, the number will
now be eighteen beyond all doubt. lam happy
to observe that the gentleman who sends this list
of six persons, who have sunk under the cholera,
does not mention a word of any new, or indeed
any more cases pending. He says not a word
either of Dr. Daun, or of the cholera being
certainly Asiatic. These are perhaps favourable
circumstances, but it must not be forgotten that
there has been great reluctance manifested by
the people of Sunderland to let any thing be
known respecting the disease prevailing there.
Many of the inhabitants either are not in fact,
or affect not to be, at all alarmed, and do not
scruple to attribute the fears that have been en-
tertained by persons in Newcastle and else-
where to idle imagination, or interested misre-
presentation. I should be sincerely rejoiced if
it should be found that the matter has been too
highly coloured ; but it is obvious that the
great anxiety for concealment which has been
shown is calculated to excite suspicion. The
opinions of Dr. Dann, the Medical Commis-
sioner from London, and Dr. Brown, an able
resident physician, have been expressed very de-
cidedly as to the cases they have witnessed, having
the character of Asiatic cholera. In this Mr.
Kelly, the surgeon of the regiment at Sunder.
land, who has seen the cholera in India, has
also concurred. I may add, that domiciliary
visits were made yesterday among the poor in-
habitants of Sunderland, and that they were
strongly urged to pay the greatest regard to clean-
liness and ventilation in their houses. As yet,
though we have a great deal of typhus fever in
Newcastle, we are happily free from the cholera,
and if the most scrupulous attention to cleanli-
ness in the narrow streets and lanes can protect
us from infection or contagion we shall escape.
These places have not only been thoroughly
swept, but they have been freely and completely
washed, by means of the Fire-office engines.
