TEE CHOLERA.
From The Montreal Courant Of June 10.
CHOLERA AT MONTREAL.

The presence of the .4sidtic Cholera in
this city remains no longer doubtful; 1t has
burst forth upon us with rapidly which
has carried CONSERVATION ard dlsmay to the
hearts of the hravest and the most resolute
of our citizens. lis destructiveness we be-
lieve is greater than ii has been in any part
of Europe or perhaps of India. Every quar-
ter of the city has been smitten almost at
the same moment and death is de aling his
most fearful ravages in every direcuon.-
On Saturday last no appearance of the dis
ease could observed. All was confidence
and many entertained hopes that it would
not cross the Atlantic. Late on Saturday
night, however, the steam-b boat Voyageur
arrived from Quebec, having one person
dead on board, named John Kerr, an emf
grant from Derryaghy near Belfast, Ire
land, who had been suddenly attacked with
every symptom of Cholera. Before KeLr
expired another of the Voyageur's passen-
gers named M'Kee from Cork, had been
seized with similar symptoms and was tax
en- ashore without delay. He expired in
ieSe than "a hours after the arrival of the
boat, and tho errnrt~",s Of his ease loft No
doubt on the minds of some OF the medica
men who saw him of its identity with Asia
this case could he isolated and further dit,
fusion of the disease prevented, but upor
inquiry it was discovered to have sprear
almost simultaneously to the Quebec, st
Lawrence and Recollect suburbs, and ha:
since spread so generally that no part car
be said to be exempt from the presence
Of the disease. On Monday the Board o
Health met but issued no bulletin. o.
Tuesday we were favored with communi
cation from the Secretary, which tended Il
support the opinion that no Aslatic Choleri
existed in town, and we lost no time in diff
fusing this in the form of handful and il
our columns. On Wednesday the Board o
Health met and issued the following bull

DR.. Ives of New York, among other re-
marks on the subject of the Cholera has the
following:
1t is tho testimony of all those who have
witnessed the prevalence of Cholera, that CIV.
cry species Of excess, and every deviation from
a regular and uniform mode Of living is liable
10 excite the system to disease. Ea; we have

on the contrary, great security aVaiHSt ii. |
need only mention the official statements, roa-
tive 10 the epidemic Cholera in Russia, on
the authority Of Prince Lieven, Ambass to
England. He stated TO Sir Matthew Tieney,
that the cholera, during its rage at st. Pc
tersbIrg and Moscow, did not increase the
mortality beyond the average of former deaths
By the official returns the number of deaths
taken as a whole during the prevalence of the
epidemic at Moscow, was absolutely less than
in ordinary times. This is attributed tn M~
people retraining from drinking, and other
habits Of diSSip0tion. From the . Report of
DR.. KIRK 10 the Greenock Board of Health as
the result of a mission TO the infected districts
1t appears that after the most extensive inquiry
not single ease of Cholera is known to have
occurred in England that was not prGcedtd bY
Diarrh9a, and that where medical aid was call.
ed during this premonitory symptom, the dis,
ease was uniformly durable.

THE CHOLERA.

The appearance of the Cholera at Quebec may
perhaps give rise to unreasonable alarm. Any
one who recollects that vile spot called the Low
er Town, and the crowds Of emigrants. surround
ed with the squalor Of recent voyage, that ge.
nerally ill il. might expect it to be the seat OF
perpetual disease. Without wishing to see our
Board of Health relax their customary vigilance
we may also remark that many persons here have
their fears unnecessarily excited this subject.
1t is the English, aiming the Europeans, whose
modes of life resemble ours the nearest; in Lon
don, the Cholera has been the merest tri6e II
in Paris it has been more fatal, there is no city,
it must be remembered, whose food, lodgings,
&c. are more different from ours. 1t there Kill
led one in every 90 persons; so that even :there,
as the phrase goes, il was almost "a hundred to
one'' that you escaped. There is no use in the
journals catching and spreading such note of
alarm, at least until we have little more precise
information. Pat.

The amendment Of Mr.. D. was supported by
Mr.. Huntington, of Connecticut. Mr.. Branch
replied in opposition to 1t, and to the whole pro-
tecting system.
MIR. Drayton then followed, and remarked, in
opposition to the amendment, that it it was ex-
peeted there was to be any compromise, lead
ing princiPIe to accomplish such object must be
not to increase any existing duty. He had not
seen any amendment as yet proposed which met
his views, and he was ratherin favor OF the bull
from the Secretary of the Treasury, as more
than any other likely to attain that desirable o.
ject.
Mr.. Hoffman, Of New York, also opposed the
amendment of Mr.. d. and thought the bull OF the
Secretary Of the Treasury more adapted to allay
the existing ferment.
Mr.. Ingersoll replied, and complained that
while duties were kept 50 high on other articles
those on woollens alone should be put SO low

Mr.. II. Everett proposed to strike out the orr
ginal clause in the LIST section, and insert:

cents per ID. four cts. per h., and per ct. ad

was rejected: ayes SIS, noes IS. The question
was then put on the amendment OF Mr.. DAVIS,
which was also negatived: ayes 81, noes 70
MFR. Crawford, Penn. proposed his amend.
ment, formerly printed,) respecting duties on
Iron and manufactures Of Iron; which was also
rejected.
Mr.. McKennan proposed the following, viz:
In the second section. after tho word ''duty'
in the 9TH line, insert and If any wool as i'm.
ported shall be fine wool mixed with dirt or 9th.
er material, and thus reduced IN value to eight
cents per pound or under, the appraisers shall
appraise said wool at such price as in their OPT
Mon it would have Cos! had it not been so mixed,
and duty thereon shall be charged in conforml-
ty with such apprisal."
In the 9th line, strike out tlirty-fve" and
insert forty" per cent ad valorem.
Mr.. Stewart moved to amend the amendment
to increase in the 9th line from 40 to SO.
A division was called for, and the amendment
of Mr.. Stewart was negatved.
The question was then put ON the first part OF
Mr.. McKennan's amendment, and it was carried
Yeas So, Nays not counted. The second part
was also carried-Yeas 6l-Nays 81.
Mr.. Nuckols then proposed to strike out the
specific duty of cents per pound on wool, which
gave rise to an animated debate, and was finally
negatised.
The discussion was continuing when Uurpaper
went to press.

THE INDIAN WAR.
From, The WaSLtington Globe.

We understand tina, orders have been issued
from the War department, for the concentration
at Chicago, of about 1000 men Of the regular
army. from the garrisons upon the sea.board
and the lakes; and that Gen. Scott has been di-
rected to take the command of the operations
against the hostile Indians. We learn that mea-
sures have already been taken for raising the
mounted rangers, authorized by the recent act
of Congress, and that these will march without
DELAY, TO the scene Of warfare. Gen. Scott has
been empowered to call for such militia force
from the adjoining States, as circumstances may
render necessary.
The plan of operations will be by combined
movement Of the troops under Gen. Scott, aud
those under Gen. Atkinson, from Chicago and
the Mississippi. to attack the Indians On both
sides, and scour the country, until they are en-.
tirelv subdued. We are Informed that Gen.
Scott has ,ders to reduce them to uncondition-
al submission, and not to suspend his operations,
while any of the hostile Indians remain east OF
the Mississippi They will be required to cross
the river. and repair to such district as may be
assigned to them. And such arrangements are
contemplated concerning boundary lines as effec-
tually to prevent the recurrence OF similar ag-
pressIons. The surrender of the Black Hawk,
and some Of his principal Chiefs, as hostages for
these people, and to secure the frontier against
their future cruelues, is made indispensable.
There is reason however to hope, that the force
now under General Atkinson. IL the last call OF
the Governor Of Illinois has been fully obeyed,
will have checked if not subdued the Indians be-
fore the arrival Of Gen. Scott Still as the ope
ratiops are remote, and the result OF our Indian
campaigns aIw avs doubtful, and more particular.
" as the nature of the warfare of the most dis
tressing character. it is certainly prudent to
guard against any consequences, and TO take soch
measures as will efectually reduce the hostile Ia.
dams, and overawe the disaaected. 1t IS the
dictate. not only Of policy and humanity, but Of
true economy. IL our operations are not V,gor-
ously conducted, and If one or two more reVefses
should befal our arms, no one who knows the IN
dams can venture topredict how far the spirit OF
classification would extend, nor what tribes would
remain quiet.
From the known talents and experience OF
Gen. Scott, and from the ample means placed AZ
his disposal, as we'll as from the plan OF opera
lions, which has been directed, we anticipate
the most vigorous measures, and speedy termina'
ton of this murderous and most unprovoked con-
test. 49,.
We cannot but hope. that from The state OF things
in the north west, every dispassionate man. OF
whatever party, will see the necessity OF an I'M
mediate removal Of The Indians beyond the sphere
of our settlements. The scenes that are now act.
ing form lesson worthy to be remembered oy Oil
who are the real friends of the Indians.
