This dread scourge has at length siridcd
the ocean aud made its unwelco'ne appear
ance in New York. In another column
will be found paragraph giving an nc.
count Of some Of its devasta,ions in Eng,
land and elsewhere.
A telegraph despatch from New York &c
tho Chicago Journal OF last Wednesday eve
ming says:-"Therc had been 80 cases OF
Cholera received into the hospital up to
latest dates, and l6 cases bad proved fatal =
As no new cases were reported il was con.
fidently hoped the disease had reached its
crisis.
We sec many proiesscd preventives oil
the disease going the rounds Of the press,
all Of which may be resolved into the in.
functions; guard agains. s,imulants of all
kinds, more especially alcoholic, keep clean"
and check the first symptoms Of diar-
rhGa, as it is in this manner the disease
earliest makes It's appearance. This Is the
premonitory symptom, rs il is said no one
ever died with the Cholera without previ-
Gus diarrhna. Cholera is not contagious
but depends upon peculiar morbilic poison
in tho atmosphere. We have been for
hours together in the hospital with patients
in every stage of The disease, nor once have
experienced its slightes, symptom. We
may expect this epidemic the ensuing year.
As il now appears il differs in no particular
from the Cholera which visited our country,
throughout lis length and breadth, in 1882
That our readers may the better guard
against its attack, we shall occasionally
publish extracts from the Boards OF Health
