STATE Prison. On Monday morning, the Gov
ernor suddenly left this town for Boston, in conse-
quence of information received by express, from
that city. As no intimation of the cause of his
departure was given, either by him or the messen-
ger, considerable anxiety felt BY Our citizens in
relation to it.. BY the Boston papers of yesterday
morning, the matter is explained. 1t appears by
them, that sudden and mysterious disease broke
out in the course of the night of Sunday in the
State Prison at Charlestown, and before morning
attacked between so and 40 of the prisoners. A
rumor went abroad at once that tie cholera had
made its appearance in this most singular and I'M
paralleled manner and the vomiting, purgng, &C.,
which accompanied the symptoms seemed TO favor
the suggestions. But an examination by Drs Big
Glow and Ware, lent no coloring to such an i'm
preston; and subsequent examinations, proved be-
yond doubt, that the disease must be of local ORR
gin, and altogether of different character from
that of the cholera
The number of cases continued to increase, and
before Monday evening, one hundred aud eighteen
were similarly affected. No deaths had occurred
at that time, Of those first selzed and some of those
most violently attacked were recoyering-and the
general belief was, that some deetervus matter
had been taken with their food. DR.. Webster
with several consulting physicians, made careful
analysis of the food and drink, similar to that dealt
among the convicts on Sunday, but we do not learn
that any discovery was made which would accoun,
for the disease.

POLITICAL.

From every quarter, :he accounts of the political
changes which are going on are most animating,
and afford strong reason to hope that the country
will soon be redeemed from its present misrule
and arrested in its progress toward that vortex of
despotism, to which, during the last three wears.
1T has tended with such fearful rapdty. Thou
sands and tens Of thousands discovering the char
acter of the idol which has been set up for their
worship, are falling away from the faith and no
longer consider it an honor, to be crushed beneath
the car of our political Juggernaut Evidences of
this change Of opinion accumulate daily In adj
dition to those which we have published elsewhere
we may state, that, within few days, three de-
cided Jackson papers in Pennsylvania and two in
New York have come about in favor of Henry
Clay. In Philadelphia, call has been made. for
public meeting of the Irishmen who have be-
come naturalized citizens, and who are opposed
to the reelection of Gen. Jackson The call ia
signed by TWO THOUSAND naturalized ci,i .
zens icho supported Gen Jackson at the last cleo
ton but who are now opposed to him. VIM B.
Hinton, one of the Jackson candidates for electors
IN North Carolina has withdrawn his name from
the list, declaring that he can longer support
his election. The two Jackson candidates for the
Legislature in Mason County, KY, have done the
same. In another County, in that State, one of
the Jackson County Committee has abiured his
Jacksonism, and retired from his post, John
Marshall, one of the abest and most active Jack
son men of that State, has abandoned the party in
consequence of the Veto Message. We could go
on If necessary, adding fact to fact to prove the
extent of the change which is going on.
In connection with these facts, it is gratifying
also to add, that increased disposition appears
to be manifested, among those who are opposed to
the present administration, and who agree on the
great principles of our government to lay aside all
minor differences and to unite cordially in the only
means by which the present system of CORFU ption
and misrule can be brought to an end. In New
York, the overthrow of the Albany Regency may
be looked upon certain. The example which
has been set there, must have its influence in 9TH
er States and we cannot but feel assurance in the
hope, that, as The delusion which led to the ele
walton Of Gen. Jackson to power, spread with an
unexampled rapidity, overwhelming all the die
tates of prudence and reason, SO, now that the
charm is broken which bound the minds of men to
his car, the return of the dominion Of reason may
be equally rapid, till Jacksonsm shall find DO rest
for the sole of its foot, and till the government oil
the country shall be restored TO the primitive sim
plicty and purity of its better days, from which il
has been SO widely estranged.

CoNvALEscENTs IN CHOLERA. We have
lately seen numerous instances of the effects of
improper treatment in cases of convaescent
cholera, and in hopes that few suggestions
may be of service, we offer the following
list. As thirst often continues after the
spasms and other violent symptoms have abat-
ed, the patient should be closely watched and
prevented from drinking. We have known
several who, from a stale of Commissioners
were brought to the grave in few hours, by
lnduging in the use of fluids.

as in cases of recovery from Typhus Fever
with the exception Of the free use of fluids !
