THE CHOLERA

n.
New YoRK.-Some fifteen or twenty cases are yeDort-
ed to have occurred in the city of New York of Asiac
Cholera but it is still doubted by some whether single
case OF that description of the cholera has occurred Dis
of the complexion common at this season of
the the fruits of nemperance exposure and ire
gulary and, sometimes without any such cause the
most temperate and regular suffer from them. The fol-
lowing is the latest general information from the New
York Board of Health
The President of the Board of Health injured of the
President Of the Special Medical Council what was the
general state of the health of the city, who replied in
substance that he bad inquired of Physicians of extensive
practice, and that the general health of the city was m
vorable BY order of the Board of Health,
J. MORTON, Sec'ry.''
The following is the language held by the New York
1t will be by the report of the board of Health on
the evening OF the 3D., that they have named Medical
Committee, composed of well known practitioners upon
whom they have devolved the responsibility which has
been frankly and earlessy accepted ON their part of re-
porting on the health of the city The first report was
codngy made yesterday, and embraces
ease more oress malignant five OF which terminated fatally
ms IN iact however, report orty-eipht instead of
twenty -four hours; for the first cases referred TO in the
proceedings OF yesterday notified in the previous
TO me Board oil Health, and left by them for the examna
OF the Medical Committee. In this point of view then
there is still to doubt whether the presidential cbole
ra be among u.s. Tor here has this city been ten days
under the agitation and excitement Of rored cases con-
denty pronounced upon by this that doctor; and vet
contrary, believe TO all that has been heretofore
OF the disease, yet maniess itself only if at ALL in two
or three detached daily. When il touched Sunder-
land Oatcshead Paris or London, Quebec and Mon
away its hundreds Of victims Nothing of that sort has
appeared here and therefore still though less conf
IDENTIFY than heretofore venture to doubt.
ALBAN The following report of the Albany Board
OF Health is highly satisfactory

They deem proper add in relation TO the cases re-
ported yesterday, that they from habits and from pc
cuar exposure, which could scarcely have failed TO pro-
duce fatal results at any time.
They their fellow citizens that there s no exis.
ing cause OF aarm3 and they happy TO perceive from
TIE general indications, that little apprehension pre-.
