The Boston Daily Advertiser contains let
ter from DIR. Jackson, in which he expresses
the opinion that the Asiatic cholera will not
prevail in New England TO any considerable
extent. He POUNDS this opinion on the known
geological character OF that region. He says
that the cities situated on limestone or tertia-
ry soils have always suffered most severely
from this scourge;while the primary or granite
regions have never been visited to any con-
siderable extent.
From the fact that it has never visited the
granite countries OF Switzerland or Tyrol, in
Europe, while it followed the calcareous dis
tricts around; and since it did not occur in
the primary districts of Maine, New Hamp-
shire, Vermont and Massachusetts,, while it
did follow the calcareous formations through
Canada, New York, Ohio, and all along
the Mississippi, DR.. Jackson nfers that the
Calcareous soil or water has much to do. with
the production of the disease.
