We are sorry 10 learn that number Of
physicians have left the city, and that
others are about leaving. Some Ofthem
are said to be influenced by Cholera
phobia, and others by other causes
Now we think il no more than right that
those physicians who desert as in our
time Of need, should be Themselves de-
serted at all other times: and we are not
sure but it would be both justiiable and
proper to publish their names to the
world. None can be more sensible than
we are of the ardous duties which de-
volve upon physicians at such time as
this; and none are more ready to award
to those who deserve it, (and many such
there are,) the need of admiration and
applause. But hard or easy, irksome or
pleasant, dangerous or safe, let them
stick to the ship as long as the crew do,
and if they get safe to shore, as we trust
they will, it will be much more pleas
ant scene to reflect upon, than if they
had run off with the boat, and left the
crew TO sink or swim as they might be
able.-[N. Y. Journal of Commerce.

I observe in the Report of Board Of
Health, for yesterday, n case of cholera
at % Renwick street. | am authorized
to say the inmates Of that house are per-
fectly healthy; and have been 50 since
the prevalence Of the cholera. The
case should have been reported as being
at 81 Renwick-street, where exists a nui-
sance Of the most disgusting kind-the
house consists of cellar and two rooms,
in which are crowded about twenty men,
women, and children, of the lowest class.
In the yard Of this place, the principal
occupant keeps from forty to fifty hogs,
four cows, and two horses. The place
is so filthy that the first ply sician called,
in this case Of cholera, refused to enter
the house. The attention Of the Ward
authorities has been repeatedly directed

NEWPORT,

CHoLERA--It affords us sincere plea
sure to state, that no case Of cholera has
occurred in this town since the two men
toned in our last-and that our inhabi-
tants are enjoying as great degree Of
health, as they were ever known to en-
JOY at this, or any season Of the year.
Our readers may rest assured, that the
Board of Health will report every case
that may occur here without delay.
Since our last publication, two other
passengers in the sloop Hero, have died
Of cholera---one Mrs. Chase, Of
Portsmouth, the other, Mr.. Pcarce
Bowen, Of Bristol. They all died within
43 hours after landing,--the above men
toned in the towns where they resided
and belonged.

NATIoNHn REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.
-Delegates from various parts Of the
State of New York chosen by the peo-
pie, met in Convention at Utica on the
,25th July, and organized by the appoint
ment Of Ambrose Spencer, President -
A committee of sixteen was appointed to
prepare resolutions and an address to the
public, and to select suitable candidates
for Governor, Lieutenant. Governor, and
electors of President and Vice-Presi-
dent. They then adjourned to the next
day.
On the 25th the Convention met
pursuant to adjournment, and nominated
Henry Clay for President, and John
Sergeant for Vice President. They
also recommended Francis Granger for
Governor, and; Samuel Stevens for
Lieutenant Governor, "to be supported
by all the independent electors in the
State" They nominated the same
candidates for Electors of President and
Vice Preiident, that had been heretofore
nominated by the Anti-nason. Conven-

RENUScIATIoNs. The Albany Daily
Advertiser states, that the following COM
munication was handed to that paper for
publication, by respectable citizen.
"We are informed that Gov. Pitcher,
Nj. G.. from Washington County, avows
himself decidedly opposed to the re-elec-
ton of Andrew Jackson; that he is de-
cided Clay man; and that unless another
electoral ticket should be nominated, he
shall vote for that already before the pub
tic. He says no honorable man could
hare stayed at Washington The last uinter,
and mol been conrinced Of the utter ineom-
petency Of Andre,o Jackson for The situation
he mow .GHs."
Gov. Pitcher is worthy and sensible
man; but we should not rc-publish his is
o!ated opinion, with the capitals in which
we find it emblazoned, if it were his on
ly. There is no honest man, of common
intelligence, in the Jackson ranks, who
is not ol the same way ofthinking. The
Oaves and fishes are all that stand in the
say Of total dcsertion of the present
Executive, by high and low; by those
who regarded his character at distance,
as high-minded, chivalric and pune; by
the politicians who used him for their
own purposes; and by Tag-Rag s. Co.,
who go with their employers, have done
so immemorially, and will do 50 in secula
Secuiorun.

The following paragraph is copied
from the Philadelphian,a religious news
paper, edited by the Rev. f. S. Ely,
who has been heretofore jealous advo-
cate and friend of Gen. Jackson.
The Veto--It is with deep regret we
announce that the President has put his
veto on the bill for extending the charter
ofthe Bank Of the United States. Should
he survive this Bank, and see it den'ol-
ished by his hands, we apprehend most
disastrous consequences will result to
the currency of these States; and that in
stead of being longer bailed as bles-
sing to his country, he will be regarded
as the author of wide spre nd ruin.

SINGULAR FAcT.-The following state
ment made in the Quebec Mercury of
the 18th, accords' with the experience
here and elsewhere, of the comparative
exemption from disease, enjoyed by the
more fortunate portion ofth community,
actively engaged in business pursuits,
who do not fly from the scene Of their en-
gagements in town, nor neglect the COM
mon rules for the preservation Of health.
The Mercury says:
We congratulate our readers upon the
favorable appearance Of the reports Of
cholera published by the board ofhealth; !;
they show diminution both in admissions
and deaths, which it may be hoped will
be further diminished by the change
which has now taken place in the wealth
er, since yesterday, become warm and
clear. Whilst speaking of cholera, it is
worthy Of remark, that Of 362 subsc ribeis
to the Quebec Exchange, class almost
exclusively occupied in commerce, and
connected with shipping, only one death
has taken place, that Of person residing
in the Upper town, and predisposed to in
fection both by timidity and constitution.

PRoPHEcY.-The Richmond Wing says,
obserre The prediction! Van Buren, will,
in short time, be Withdrawn as the can
ddate of the Republican party for the
Vice Presidency! lie will re-enter the
Department Of State, if Jackson be re-
elected, & Livingston will 60 to France!
The Administrati will throw its weight
into the scale of Wilkins, for the purpose
of re-attaching Pennsylvania to the for
tunes Of Jackson. The National Intel
ligencer copies the article entire from
the Wing, and sub joins, owe believe the
Editor OF the Wing to be well informed.
1t has been sometime reported, and we
begin to believe it, that Mr.. Van Buren
is to receive the appointment of Secrcta-
ry of State, whether Gen. Jackson be re-
elected or not; and that Mr.. Livingston
is to receive the appointment Of Minister
to France"
Some circumstances 60 far TO show
that what is now only prophetic may
soon be a reality. Congress adjourned
on the 10th. Van Buren, remained in
almost profornd seclusion in the Presi-
dents Mansion, contriving plans OF future
operations mfir tie 23d-Then the Pres
ident goes to the Hermitage, and Van
Buren, to Undertook. Why this long
conference, so close and so secluded?-I
Why are the servie presses so silent as
to, the movement oftheir pretended favo-
rite' Why is the Globe so lavish of its
praises upon the Pennsylvania Senators?
1t is sufficiently obvious.-This State
must be propitiated, or the Hero cannot
be reelected Hence Van Buren, must
make another sacrifice on the altar of
patriotism, and Pennsylvania's jarorite
son must be supported.

Gov. IIOUsTON IN ONO. We have
been allowed to copy from a private let
ter received in this city, dated Cincin-
natl, July 22d, the following account of
an occurrenceiwhich took place in that
city on the 18th Boston Courier Of
yesterday.
"On the morning of that night (l9fh)
the advertisements and hand bills of the
theatre came out with caption, stating
that the Hon. Gov. Houston had arrived
in the city the day previous, and that he
would attend the theatre that evening by
the invitation Of the manager. This
gave offence; which was expressed in
the afternoon by some individuals hav-
ing printed small bills stating that Joe
Darcus (who, you must know, is very
Infamous negro ofthis place. had arrived
and would attend the theatre by particu-
lar invitation this same evening. These
were alf postcdup next TO the play bills.
Mt all the corners OF the Streets, go that
they were quite conspicuous In the
evening large audience assembled at
the theatre, and when the Honorable
Governor made his appearance, such a
kissing and shouting was set up that the
performers were obliged to stop. Cald-
well, the manager, came out to addres
the people, but in vain, they would not
listen to him, but continued kissing and
shouting, "turn him, oat." Two gentle
men who accompanied the Governor,
then made an essay for the same purpose,
but with no better success, the people
would not hear them speak. Some 9TH
ers attempted, on the opposite side, and
others, as peace makers, but none could
gain hearing, for the clamor was only
increased in order to drown the voices oC
} those who would speak. The Governor
himself spoke for a short time, and was
listened to, but as he offered no justlfica a
ton or apology, the Kissing, and cries OF
"turn him out" were then increased.
"It was repeatedly called out by the
people that they did not wish to injure
Gov. Houston, but that he must leave
the house. How it would have termina-
ted l cannot say, had he not left the
house.
"The performance was broken up for
the evening and the mob followed him
. home to the hotel, Kissing and shouting
the whole way. Many respectable gen
tIemen of the place we're concerned in
this row. The advertisement which
give rise to twas exceedingly ill-judg-
ed on the part Of Mr.. Caldwell. All
agree in saying that without it Gov.
Houston might have accepted his invita-
ton and attended the theatre with i'm
punity. On the part Of Houston II was
indelicate and impertnent in the extreme
to submit to such public notice, as he
must have been aware Of the estimation
in which he is held in this State, which
he has so grossly insuted by his dis
graceful conduct at Washington. He
was treated as ne deserved"

From the Hospital Report.
NEw-YoRK, July 26, 1882.

Mehah, female aged 40 was brought
into the Crosby-st. Hospital, July 90, IN
a collapsed state. The pulse was not
perceptible, skin cold and moist, heat in
the epigastric region, soaked and livid
and shrivelled hands. Sunken state of
the eyes and face, with some lividness
over various parts of the body. IA OF.
of the following solution: "Mur-soda
g drachms, sub carbo soda drachm,
aqua hiej," were injected into vein at
the bend Of the arm. This was follow
ed by slight increase in the volume and
force Of the pulse, an improvement Of
the respiration, it being freer, and oflon-
ger duration at each inspiration; the heat
Of the surface of the body was augmen-
ted. An hour and half after the first
injection, 40 or. Of the same fluid were
injected into another vein, which was
followed by a decided improvement Of
all the bad symptoms.
She expressed herself as feeling muci,
better.
During the night there were given 3
injections of brandy and water.
Sunday morning 9 o'clock. She is ve-
ry much improved, reaction has been
fully established, and she asks for some
food. She continued to improve all day
and is on Monday morning nearly well.
Sire has been sent to the Convalescent
Ward, and will in few days be dis
charged, perfectly cured.
The notes of this case were taken by
DR.. Coke of Philadelphia, now on a vis-
it to this city, who has injected two ca
ses. This operation is very simple, and
can be performed with great ease. DIR.
