TREATMENT OF CHOLERA

AS SOME cases Of malignant or Asiatc Chole-

TO our fellow-citizens to make some remarks on
the subject. We sincerely hope they may be
productive OF good, and be received in the spirit
in which we know they are given Should anv
benefit result, even to one individual, we shall be
more than compensated.
It's not necessary to enter into the history Of
the epidemic, which, from the time Of its origin
In India, appeared as if the Destroying Angel
mad gone forth, shaking pestilence from his wings,
and IN his flight bearing bolt Of death over the
world. Our remarks are intended to be purely
practical, and as concise as possible.

A REPRIMAND.


A correspondent has favored us with the
following version Of Mr. Speaker Ste,enson's
address 10 Gen Houston, on reprimanding
him for his assault on MIR. Stanberry. II
3 strikes us as conveying the whole sense OF
the original; in familiar and Ineligible Ian
guage:
Sammy Houston! stand up! you've been
char'gd with a breach
OF the rights Of this House, and the freedom
OF speech.
You have beaten a member for stating a fact,
And the House can't afford to approve ofthe
act.
It's a delicate matter for one Jackson man
To censure another, bat well as | can
I'll do it. So Sammy, you know we have host
Nearly all of four weeks, and how much ii
has cost.
To consider your case; you've had counsel
allowed,
And been marched up, in state, every day
through the crowd;
We have heard all the law learning out of
the book,
We have also heard you discourse on tour
own hook;
And now, in a ''moral and dignified" way,
I'll proceed TO the utter4nce of what We to
say.
No matter what led you 10 make the assault,
The House thinks, decidedly, you were iii
fault;
And they eensure you, Sam:-to be censured
you stand,
And ] must administer their reprimand.
Fit were to a pauper that | had to preach,
Or a c~hangellng or scrub, who knew no parts
of speech,
] shc,ld lay down the law with portentous
effect,
And make them thereafter behave more cor
rect:
Butss you've been a member yourself, 1woull
be vain,
And if you see fit, you may do it again.
You may lick any body, you like, and may
ride .
About with the Sergeant at Arms by your
side;
And ti'eD may, perhaps, have the pleasure TO
stand
Again, before me, getting my reprimand.
GU certainly know that if all of our body
Should be licked every day, it would look
rlther oddly:
And the Fearons and Fauxes and Trollopes
might tell
Some truths which in print would not sound
very well
oh. sammy for shame, think of this my
am sure, had you thought of the risk that
or disPleasing the House in the manner a
foresaid,
You would not have done it, and there'd be
ne more said
Thus the House is a~veuged-aud my elo-
quence stranded,
And you -Sam-consider yourself Repri

Hang up thy little drum,

And to thy mother come.
New nut aside that pretty whip.
Nor so unwilling lie,
Blu eO4De aud let thy playthings rest,
And it awhile with me.
Sees't thou the church Oh yonder green
And1Icbple gathering there?
They do not Row diversion seek;
They meet for holy prayer
And God who dwells beyond the SKY,
Sends from His throne above,
Blessings upon those humble souls,
Who worship him in love.
He gives thee every thing thou bast,
Lite. health. and friends, n food
wis thou not love his holy day,
And love q God 50 goodP
Now look abroad on yonder scene,
The air is still and sweet,
There is the grten aud waving grass,
So soft beneath thy feet.
And here's the tree above thy head,
Aud here thou oft hast played,
And heard the pretty birds sing out
Their morning serenade.
And is not this a lovely world,
So sweet, SO fair, so bright
Tie sun, how glorious in The morn,
The moon, now mild at night.
And t,vinkkog stars that %glisten down
Upon yon streomlet clear.
Aud SHINE upon the awful deep,
That rolls its pillows near.
And Frederick, God did make it all,
And yonder little bird,
And glorious SUM-, and earth, and sea
Exist but by His word.
Then come and fold thy willing hands,
Let no wild thoughts intrude,
Bot thank thy God Ter all his good,
In cheerful gratitude.
And ne'cf again my darling boy,
Indulge in foolish play,
Nor break upon the sacred calm,
Of Gods own sabbath day.
