cHoLERA--1Ts CAUSE AND CURE.

Numerous conjectures and experiments have
been made to ascertain the cause Of this disease.
But each experimenter differs SO materially
from all the Others, that little else has as vet
been established save the utter ignorance of all
speculators as to the agent producing cholera.
Inc last hypothesis is, that il Is owing 70 a
dsleterious agent in the atmosphere, called
Ozone. Its existence was discovered by Prof.
schc'sessa the Inventor Of gun cotton; and
Dr. !. ~ Bird, Of Chicago, attributes the exis-
terce Of cholera toit Ozone is generated bv
the passage Of electricity through the air do.
composing it, water, and is tho Cause Of the
peculiar odor perceived during the working of
an electric machine, or after stroke Of light.

MR. cALHouNs LETrER.

Wepublish in another part of our paper,
letter from Mr. Calhoun ON the subject Of the
Memphis Rail Road Convention, which must
prove interesting to all who. feel any ankle
ty on the subject of this great national enter
prise. Emenating, rs it does, from the mind Of
one so emineptly qualified to discuss project
of such vast magnitude, it cannot fail to elicit
the deepest interest in the considerations of our
fellow citizens, and the public generally. The
penetrating eye of DIR. @. scans rapidly the ad-
vantages resulting to us from the connection of
the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, and in the
closing paragraph his superior wisdom singles
out difficulties which to the more superficial
mind would have remained hidden for the dark
future Il were well to pause "until we see
what interest We are to have in the work"
The Union is journal long and favorably
known tothe Democratic party rs one of the
strongeatand most powerful of its advocates,
published at Washington City, and edited by
Thos Ritchie Of Virginia fame, and is now con.
Quoted under the joint supervision of Richie
d Burke. The latter in reply to certain charges
made against him, concerning abolitionism, by
the Philadelphia American, speaks out with q
holiness and independence which unequivocal-
ly defines the position of the junior Editor.
Inrepiy he says:
"When the editor of the Philadelphia
American asserts that the junior editor
of this paper sympathises with the abo-
litionist, or has any conncxion with them
whatever, he does it without particle of
fact upon which to justly such an asser-
tion. We do not accuse that paper of
wilful Misrepresentation, but we do of a
carelessness of statement which is but
little less culpable. Our whole political
career disprooyes the statements and the
insinuations of the American, as can
abundantly be shown if necessary. If
any more such false coinage comes from
that source, we shall stamp it as it de-
serves"

VOLUNTEERS.

Proffers of volunteer forces, it is said, have
boen made to the Government for the protec.
lection of the Rio Grandc from Indian dcpre
dations. The Secretary of War declined re-
ceiving them, MS he did not anticipate an out
break of such nature as would require more
than the regular force; but should occasion
arise for greater force than the regulars, it will
be taken from Texas
