for the purpose of establishing intercourse in

distinguished men of Europe and America. II is
proposed in this collection to give a prominent
place to the affairs of the American Union, to the

sition than any other organ in Europe to serve as
an intellectual link between the Old and the New

most eminent political, scientific, and literary men
of France. Many Of its contributors have visited
North and South America, and it still counts among
them many of the Diplomatic and Consular Corps.

ruE onoLEnA III rnr, ,yEsr.

Our advices tell US that the Cholera is
making rapid advances into the heart Of the
great West. 1t had ascended the Mississippi
pi river and seized upon the towns on its
banks. Steamboats, were forced TO stop,
because Of the ravages Of the disease among
their crew--in one case leaving not soul
on board to navigate the vessel. People
were flying from N. Orleans by thousands to
escape from the pursier, but in many cases
they found themselves overtaken before they
reached their journey'send. Boats had ceas-
ed descending the river, and on the Ohio,
the cities were in a state Of great alarm at
the approach Of the terror. No where, have
communities Of men prepared orthe disease,
by removing the exciting causes thereof, If
we except Boston. In 1881, that city es-
capped the SC purge, because its sanitary reg
ulatons were complete and thoroughly exc
cuted. Louisville, in Kentucky, also esca-
ped, in large degree, owing to its admira-
bic sanitary system. Though the warning
of the present coming Of the enemy has been
amply sufficient, yet the cities have not heed
I'd it. Happy will it be for Washington, i'll
is authorities will rouse up and carry into
effect the Boston sanitary system.
There IS no time, we repeat, to be lost.
