The Cholera In Europe.

The accounts Of the gradual approach OF
Cholera from South Eastern Europe were vague
and indefinite, and therefore appalling, until the
endemic reached the western limits of Russia,
since which tine, with each steamship arrival
from the old world, we have had more or less DIS
tipct records Of it's progress, and find 1t less de-
structve than was supposed.

From this short review Of the items furnished
by the English papers upon this subject for some
time back il would appear that this pest is neither
moro rapid in its progress or more fatal in its eff
fects than it has been at several periods, since the
days when it ragged to such an appalling ex-
tent some twenty years since. To one who ha.
seen the manner in which the peaslntry Of those
countries live, the wonder is, no. that such dis
eases almost annually break out in some quarter or
other, but that the close, crowded, filthy villages,
whose houses are often little better if as good as
good ankee piy-stye, are not depopulated.
