adiisers at present pronounce his disorder tci be the effect of an
'Unusual relaxation of the nervous system, occasioned by severe and
intense anxiety during the pressure of business."

By a Brussels Paper received last week, it appears
that a journeyman baker had obtained, in the Vienna Lottery, the
Gland Prize of ieo,ooo francs. This may sound high in the Ger-
man States, but our friend Csnani.t., the present Lottery Con-
tractor, has managed much better for English adventurers having
in hit '
Scheme no less than Four ,125,000, equal to six Muldred
lhonsandfrancs each, with many other Capitals and Prizes, forming
a grand total exceeding,* millions offrencs, and which will all be
distributed in sterling English money, on Wednesday, 31st of this
month, August.
Among other effects of the late extremely hot wea-
ther and sudden changes in the temperature, may be mentioned the
prsyralence of cholera morbus in some of the most healthy quarter,
of London. Persons who have been long resident in tropical clip
mates are considered to be more exposed to danger from this disease
than others. Mr. Bocintausat, of the Regent's Park, who re:
sided so long in India, and travelled so much in various countries
of the East., is now slowly recovering from one of the severest at-
tacks of cholera ever experienced in this country, and equal in the
violence of the spasmodic contractions to anything met with in
India. The particular predisposing causes are supposed to be
bodily fatigue, mental anxiety, and a disregard of sudden checks of
perspiration. In hot countries the bad effects of these checks are
counteracted by the strong insensible perspiration always kept up,
or by the general relaxation of the system. Persons recently from
that country, therefore, since found to be so peculiarly exposed to
danger from the influence of our sudden atmospheric changes,
should, in adjusting their dress to the climate, consult health rather
than their own feelings—a caution which may be useful to many
who have returned, after a long absence, eager to enjoy the refresh-
ins breezes of their native land.

Friday a quarrel of a violent desctiption took place
between the new Collector of the Customs of this Port,-
Ecigecombe, Nag. and the Inspector General, John Pitts, Esq.
The affair has excited considerable conversation, and the following
paper having been publicly exposed in the Exchange News Room,
We think ourselves justified in submitting it to general perusal :
' " I beg leave to state, for the inforhiation of the Gentlemen of
'Newcastle, that I received a 'violent insult from Mr. Edgecombe,
of this town, on the afternoon of Friday, the 12th inst. for which I
immediately demanded the satisfaction of a Gentleman, through the
medium of a friend, and that Mt. Edgecombe has expressed his
readiness to meet me In the field, but at the same time declares
that he will not fire, and will not provide himself with any weapon
of defence. "JOHN MITTS.
" Pilgrims-street, Newcastle, 15th Aug. 1825."
Both parties were yesterday summoned before H. Cramlington,
LT Mayor, and bound over to keep the peace.— Tyrte.tfereiny.
