THE CHOLERA.

Since our last publication the weather has.un.
dergone a very agreeable change; and the atmos.
phere, which had Tor several weeks been extreme

cool, and now wears more the appearance Of
March than June. The Cholera, Of which be.
fore we heard very little Of, must, we think, be
now nearly extinct. The majority of the deaths
at present are children, who, at this season of
the year, are affected with the WORMS, a disease
which has been very fatal. We would, howe
yer, recommend continuation Of precautionary
measures, in order that the dreaded disease may
not be allowed again to commit its ravases among

triumph Of professional skill perhaps without
parallel.-ChaTteSt0n Courier.
Tampico.-A late Tampico paper contains the
following paragraph:
1--WE have the most gratifying pleasure to an
nounce that, according to the official reports of
the physicians to day. but two new cases Of cho.
iera have occurred. May the Divine Providence
deliver US entirely from this terrible and fatal
scourge Our population has experienced in Sc.
renteen days the loss Of nine hundred souls!"
In kentucky, almost every county, TO great
er or less extent. is being ravaged BY the pesli-
lence. Many sections of country, and some the
must elevated and healthy situations, have lost
greater proportion of the population than have
the towns and villages. This is doubtless owing
in some measure, to the want of medical aid. as
we'll as other necessary attentions. In the Green
River Country, the disease is represented to be
rapidly spreading, and carrying desolaton in its
course. When and where its ravages will cease,
is known only to HIM who can control the pesti.
lence as He does the winds of heaven.

Ministers:
MEMORIAL
1--WE claim from the General Government Sc
curity from future interference with our slaves.
either bv Orders in Council, or any other mode
not recognized by our laws.
We claim that sectarian Missionaries shall
be left to the operation Of those laws, which so.
vern the other subjects of his Majesty; and IT
those laws are insufficient to protect US from re-
newed instructions, excited through their ma
chinations, we be permitted to amend them.
We ask for such alterations in the revenue
acts as shall revive our prosperity, by restoring
to the colones some part Of the income OF their
estates, which has now, and has long, been alto
gether swallowed up by the exactions OF the Mo-
Their Country
"If these reasonable demands are rejected,
we call upon Government TO give, without FUR
Their hesitation or delay, an equitable compensa
ton for these interests, which it has thought ex
pedient 10 sacrifice for the supposed good OF the
empire.
s. Should compensation also be refused, We H.
naly and humbly require that the Island OF ia
maica be separated from the Parent Country.
and that, being absolved from her allegiance to
the British Crown, she be free either to assume
independence, or to unite herself to some State
by whom she will be cherished and protected.
and not insulted and pIundereJ.
From, ST. Nncenk-A report having been cir
culated among the slaves OF this Island that they
would bs emancipated on the arrival Of the Vice.
Governor, and that event having taken place
without the expected result, alarming symptoms
of INSTRUMENTATION had discovered themselves on
two or three Of the estates in the windward part
Of the island. The Lieutenant Governor had
issued his proclamation, dispeIing the delusion,
and enjoining strict and cheerful obedience to
their masters.
