SPOT ON THE SIN.

Messrs. GooDwINs-Some of your readers may be sintcrested in knowing lhat there is large Spot on the Suns DISC, nearly ten thousand miles in di- ametcr. On Saturday, Nov. 3d, it Was quite distinctly marked, and ap- ncaied nearly circular; inthe morning Ii vas to be seen directly above the suns centre, nearly half way towards his western limb, fsdgc,)
 Spots are almost constantly 10 bc seen by the aid of the Telescope, though or- dlharily Lot many times in the year so large as thisohe. It tiswell knownthat tbc time of the suns revolution on it's axls was determined by aneais of these spots; the opinions of philosophers in regard to their cause and nature are various. Dr. Hcrschcl supposed them to be ruptures or openings il tic umin- GUS medium surrounding the sun, ind that through these openings we discover either less luminous stratum of clouds, or the opaque body of the sun lying be- yond, and with respect 10 the sun, ln- derneath the luminous medium.
 It may be observed, that it is not ne- eessary 10 consider these spots as per ieesis black; they indeed become so ny comparison with the rest of the suns disc; but these same portions of tho disc Ii detached from the rest, .and viewed with the intervention ofthe dark glasses, through which we are obliged to view the sun, might appear very bright, and it is highly probable that they often would. Dr. H's opinion re- celves strong confirmation from the diff ferent shapes of the spots, as they are presented 10 US in different relative parts, ofthe suns disc by his revolution. Their appearance changes often and nearly always in a few days, when ex- amined with a telescope. YIDl.

 1reatmeut.- first indication of cure, is the restoration of tEe lost ae tiono the liver. This is 10 be done by giving doses of ealomel in such mai- ner as 10 act most readily on the liyer.. In most cases, however, the purging IS so considerable. that the calonel would pass oil before 1t would exert it's fnfia- enceson that gland, hence opium should be combined with 1t in such proportion as to cause it to be retarded for several hours in the stomach. Tine proportions and times of repetition, must be judged of by the physician, which the violence and nature of the attack will best point out. The object to be desired is, to Eeheck the discharges until the liver be. gins to secrcte bile, when the diseharg- es will assume dark color. and thick. eonsistence resembling tar.
 This kind of discharge is a favorable symptom, and argues speedy recovery. IL shows clearly, that the liver has be. gan its function, though yet in a diseas-H ed state.
 Ne can positively assert that no case of Cholera ever did, or ever will occur so suddenly, as not 10 give time for sue cessful medical treatment. Every case of looseness Of the bowels, where the discharges are nearly colorless, may be regarded as cases of Cholera, and if not treated properly, and in due time, will terminate in death.
 The dose Of eaiomel and opium which has been found most successful in our treatment of the disease, is bali grain-of opium with about 20 grains Of oalomel, repeated every two hours, til the discharge from the bowels is dr. rested; ii should tiileIl bbe discontinue u ioF q few hours, and the symptoms nar- rowly watched; and if when the dis charges shall again appear changed in eolor and conscience. it will be known that change has been produced in the secretions of the liver, and the disease Iehanged in it's nature.
 We view.eyery case of Cholera per tectiy under the control of medicine. and hence, every case which proves ia tai. is owing to the neglect of the pa tent, or want of skill in his physician This disease will no longer he such q terror 10 the world. when physicians treat t right in itsfirst stage.
 Ne submit the above as a few prac. teal remarks for the benefit of t!Ie pub 1 lie, and not as has been the case with hihe-tenths of those who have written on the disease, to show forth some new, and mysterious theory.
 When medical men become rational, and draw their mode of treatment from facts, as Il ey really exist, there viii be but one mode ofseure for tie Cholera, and that is inc mode pointed out inthis article.
