larm as thai Which the lOIieS would endeayor to excite by the words Chole- ra Morbus. Itis q discasc--a bad dis ease--a dangerous disease, and dis ease which requires prompt and strong measures to arrest and alleviate it; but it is not an incurable disease of which you must die, for at St. Petersburgh, where 1t has ragged most violently, out of 9,l46 cases, only 1,693 have fallen victims.
 Let us, then, have no unmanly and unnecessary alarm in England about the Cholera. Ii 1t has reached you, and l hope most ierscntly it has not-why let the labofing classes be well nursed, and we'll fed, and well clothed-and let hospitals be opened-and sick houses he estabiisiied-and tine proper means appied-and then depend on it, very few mortal cases will occur when com pared with the gross population-and, above all, let the laborng classes re member with gratitude and pleasure, how Great Britain has been preserved from wal, pestiienee, and famine, dur ing the last 30 yearsl Whilst in France we have been invaded by foreign ar mics, Great Britain has remained se- cure! Whilst in France our farms have been oyerrnn by a foreign soldiery, and our property pillaged by Prussial,s and Cossaeks, as we'll as women violated :; and onr temples and hearths defiled and dishonored by Russian and Austrian armies, in Great Britain no such scenes have been witnessed-no such hard ships endured; but each man has sat under his own vine and his own hop pole, and none has dared to harm him.
 And let the laboring classes also re- member that during the last thirty years, whilst the plague has ravaged
 bothin the north and south of Europe, Great Britain has never been visited by
 this terrible calamity: and that whilst
 in Germany floods have arisen which
 have swept all before them, in England neither the sea nor the rivers have in-
 vaded those boundaries which nature
 has assigned them. Let us, then, not Ihear Of any maWiSisfl sensibilitY and
 extravagant fears in England-a Chris tlan country-a country of bibles and
 missionaries, churches and chapels-at
 the approach of the cholera, or even at it's arrival in the British Metropolis. Let the English bear it like rnen-Iil<c civilized and rational beings, and, above all, like humble and sincere Christians! 1t will be strange. indeed, if the reli- zion of Great Britain shall not be equal to sustain it's population in such mo- ment as this and let the laboring class es remember, that it is 10 fault of the King, CT of the Government, OF of the Parliament, that this disease has reach ed Great Britain; let them remember, that 1t is an aiiliction sent by an over ruling and wise Providence, who best knows how to ssshape our ends-rough hew them as we will" Let the rich be bountiful and attentive to the poor.- Let the Government provide Asylums and hospitals-let the medical profes- sion be active and Jealous and humane -and let the poor profit with gratitude from all the attention ard kindness which may be shown them-and then inc cholera mofbus will soon be forgot ten--and its rayages will be but of very secondary character, when com pared to those which have been occa- stoned during the last half century, by q vile and hateful system of oppression in England. The tories wish 10 make you forget Reform and lose all your de- sire for a free and full representation in Parliament. because the Cholera is at Sunderland. But be not thus deceiv- ed! The progress of reform is the pro- gress of liberty-the progress oi liberty is the progress Of ciyilizalon-the pro- gress of civilization is the progress of reason and humanity-and, therefore, the progress of reform is even cure for the cholera! l have written thus much about this subject, because have conversed with some individuals just arrived from England at Paris, in a state of great agitation and alarm about the cholera at Sunderland, and because, instead of emigrating at such moments as these, it is on the contrary, the duty of the rich and humane to remain at home!!!
 The King of Holland has given his reply to the London Conference! It is pale, tame, jesuitieal, mean, unprinci- paled and Machiavelian. But it is the natural result of the policy which has l. ......--l l.
