rect and precise information possible in relation tho
cholera have visited the Hospital Hotel Dieu this
ing, and passed some hours there.
From until nine o'clock, saw brought in more
than twenty cholera PATIENTS speak only the apartment
IN which was the greater number had been attacked
with the disease during the OF yesterday aud
In very advanced stage oft when they reached the Hos
Pita some died while their entering on
the Register.
The singular belief which has gained ground among the
classes of people, that cholera in reality only exists
In the proclamaons of the police and i'm the nte
views OF physicians, is attended among other deporablc
consequences, with that of preventing the unfortunate in
dividua attacked from applying for medical aid until
last moment and the physician arrives but in time TO see
them expire.
The progress of the disease becomes frghtfu at the
Hospital Hotel Dieu alone there died in the twenty
hours which expired between o'clock yesterday and
this day at the hour scyentyo persons OF which
thirty alive at o'clock the morning, the forty
Others died in the remaining FIVE hours amongst
them but MINOR it young girl fourteen fifteen
years old.
The most remarkable occurrence of the day. without
contradiction, is that Of three who left the Hospital
eleven o'clock TO return 10 their homes; all three
tended by M Magendic. You know that the mode of
treatment adopted by that physician principally
causing his patients drink large quantities punch and
hot wine.
