Our esteemed anu valuable feiiOW CiuAe",
Colonel JOIN SWIFT. has had a severe attack oi
the prevailing maady; we are happy to learh
that he Is now convalescent.
His services (being always at the command OF
his fellow citizens) were on Sunday required at
the Arch street Prison; he promptly attended.
and was very actively engaged there during the
day.
The Cholera continues to increase. One hun
tired and serenity sac and Seveniyone deaths

port for the twenty -four hours ending a, noon on

On a reference TO the official account in ano-
Their column, it will be seen that there are but
comparatively few casses within the private prac-
tice If the physicians--ony % cases and 10
deaths--and those for the most part occurring
beyond the bounds of the city A majority of
the cases at the Hospitals have been taken there
from the Arch street prison. Most at the other
prisoners have, we understand, been discharged
none OF the survivors being detained but those
confined for extraordinary offences. Most Of
the debtors have also been dsrharged-the city
authorities and several philanthropic individuals
having assumed the pecuniary responsibilities for
which they were coniined 1t was rumored yes
terday that Mr.. Reakirt, the principal keeper,
had fallen victim to the disease. We trust
the rumor may prove untrue. One or two of the
underkeepers have been attacked by the cpl
demic.
We understand that the tenants Of the House
OF Refuge and OF the Walnut street Prison con-
tiuue to enjoy good health. Great care should
b. taken TO preserve the cleanliness of both es-
Adjustments, the latter particularly, in conse-
quence Of its central location in the city.
