What kills many people with cholera is, they
will not believe they have the disease until they
begin to die. They die from trifing with the diar
rhoea, believing it is only premonitory symptom,
and stop it try to do by astringent or opates
Life is suspended by hair under the " stOpping up
empirical method fearful risk has to be run
But if the skin and liver be made to act there is
little or no risk or danger to be apprehended. Many
die from stimulating too much after the sweat begins
to flow, and not taking sufficient fluid to restore the
watery part of the blood which has been lost. The
word " prernonitory'' has killed its thousands. The
disease has no premonitory symptoms that | have
discovered What is called by that name is the
disease itself.
The above mentioned powders, and vial Of the
morphine and camphor drops, should be kept in
every house when the cholera is about, and taken
whenever or wherever the first symptoms of the
disease shows itself. In cholera &C Take the med-
cine first and send for the Doctor afterwards

Remarkable Collection of Autographs,

Mr.. ]. Il. left, Of Savannah, a gentleman
CT remarkable and persevering ind ustry. and
originally a Boston boy, favored me with a
sight of his enormous collection Of autographs
Of distinguished characters. During the last
25 years, he has obtained thirty-fve thousand
autographs. The more distinguished indi-
viduals have each their portraits attached
He has one yolume-a large folio-coniain-
ing letters from all The signers Of the Declar-
alton of Independence, and another with let
tiers from all those who framed and signed
our Constitution, accompanied with an en-
craving of each person. The former book
would sell for 81 500 under the hammer in
London. was much pleased with the PEI
rusal Of n letter from John Adams 10 his in.
tended wife, under date of July 5, l776, in
which he alludes 10 the signature of a docu-
ment on the preceding day, which, with much
confidence, he declares will eventually raise
our nation 10 the rank Of one of the first pow
ers upon the earth. He closes his communi-
cation by an ~allusion to the continual chan
ges Of locality of the British Army and their
present station on Staten Island, and adds,
Like Noah's dove, but without its inno-
cence, they can find no rest"
Mr.. Tefft has documents signed by all the
English Kings from Henry VII, to date, with
many by that monarch's predecessors, the
English, councillors and statesmen for cenlu-
ry after century. One old paper | noticed
was signed by Charles II. and eighteen Eng

crowned heads, statesmen and l~iteraii of ev-

RayQgeS of death i'm Ireland,

Rev. James Anderson, Rector of Ballih-
robe, has addressed a fourth letter to Lord
John Russell, on the state Of the poor in his
district. lie says:
Two aged woman, sisters. of Enldgh,
more than seven miles from ClifJen, being
tamine-strickep, killed their own dog, boiled
it, and then paTtook Of the flesh and soup!-
On the following day one of them died All
this was distinctly deposed on oath before
John Dipping, Esq, resident magistrate, by
a most creditable person, Austin Malley, who
saw with his own eyes IA portion Of the dog
boiling in the pot, and also saw another por-
lion laid aside for the next meal This
happened during the last year, as did also
the following Al the Summer Assizes Of
Galway, a poor nan was convicted for hav-
ing stolen a calf. Twelve months impris-
onnent was the sentence about being passed
upon him by Baron Lefroy, when Mr.. Dop-
ping, knowing the dreadful circumstances
under which the act was committed, reques-
ted permission of his lordship to say a word
in behalf of the prisoner. He (Mr. Dop-
pingl then informed the Court that four OF
the poor mans children had died of starva.
ton, that the husband and wife had been
brought from kilkerrin 10 Clifden, upward
of twenty miles; that the wife, on being
conveyed from the car to the Bridewell, was
found 10 be dead through the exhaustion Of
famine, and that they had both "a short time
before her deaih) declared that such were
the extTemities 10 which they had been re-
duced, that they had absolutely eaten a p0r-
ton of the legs of one of their children; that
in order TO come at the truth if possible, the
bodies of the said children were exhnmed,
and that the appearance OF mutilation, as
stated, was visible. The recital of such a
tragedy moved the benevolent Judge him
self TO tears, and constrained him 10 a COM
mutation Of the sentence TO that Of some tri-
fling nominal punishment. Let it not be
said, my lord, that these are by-gone tales,
because, indeed, they occurred in the past
year; for ] can with truth assure your lord
ship that, independently of what ! daily wit.
ness myself, every one ] meet, in every grade
Of life, has something SO mournful TO relate
that no language can depict the miserable
condition Of the whole West of Ireland
The police themselves can well attest it, for
they are discovering dead bodies among The
walls Of ruined habitalions-or rather novels
and find the frightful prey of rats and
scarcecrows. Thus it is, my lord, that The
famine progresses; and oh how awful the
prospect for at least two or three months 10
