.. THE CHOLERA. r
Wilmer & Smith has the following
account Of the health Of the English
metropolis and the progress Of the chol.
ella:
"The general state Of health both in
the metropolitan districts and through.
out the kingdom is in a satisfactory
state. The number Of deaths in Lon.
don during the past week is III less
than The average Of the corresponding
weeks during the last FIVE years. The
fatal cases reported Of cholera amount
to As. The disease seems to be hover.
ing over many isolated parts Of the
country. Instances Of individual cases
are cited from widely distant districts.
but at present they are SO inconsidera.
bic, compared with our immense popu.
Iation. that in national point Of view,
they do not create any especial appre.
In Edinburg, Leiih, and New.
haven, the malady seems still to exert
a malignant influence to considerable
extent. The deaths are far more nu.
merous IN that quarter, compared with
the population, than else where. They
amount to ll2 since the 4th Instant
Hull and Sunderland furnish also, from
day to day, occasional fatal cases. Up.
on the whole the pestilence has not in.
creased in virulence; the relaxation OF
the quarantine regulations has not led
TO any unfavorable results; and we ear.
nes,ly hope that the Angel Of Terror
will pass over our islands, without Ieav.
ing behind the caIamitous traces Of
death and desoIation which have mark
ed its path through the eastern coun.
tries of Europe" .sseU b.
The cholera is making rapid and ia.
tai progress in Konigsberg.
The mortality in Berlin is very great,
even when cholera cases are not taken
into account. One journal accounts
for this circumstance, on the ground
that care, anxiety, and apprehensions of
coming events, are making many vic.
tins.
