HIS done this systematically and under the
s,nction of treaty, while the other Power
has done 1t irregularly, but frequently and
without treaty.
The question betweenR Russia and Turkey is
thus manifestiy question between the Greek
and the Roman Churches, and the demand
made by Russia, simply demand that the
Greek Church be placed upon the same foot
ing with the Roman Communion. The EN-
p sror Nicholas asked only that the ancient
and acknowledged rights of the Greek
Church be secured by written guarantee
We confess we are unable to see the mon
s'rous injustice of this demand, or any assault
which 1t made upon Turkish sovereignty
And in regard to the war which has resulted,
it ought to be remembered that, in the Ian
guage of Bishop Soutbgate, upon the real
point in dispute, the enemies of Russia have
acknowledged the rectitude of her cause, in
the note which they recommended to the
Porte to adopt, and with which Russia de-
| elared herself satisfied. as answering suffi-
GENTLY her demands"

WATER AND Musk MELoNs.-The City
Council are loudly called upon to assemble at once,
and prohibit by ordinance, the sale of melons in
this city We conversed yesterday with an intelli
gent tobacco manufacturer, who seems perfectly
satisfied in his own mind, that to the use of these
fruits may be attributed large amount of the cho-
era cases among the negro population. IT such
things are prohibited FROM coming into the city he
is of the opinion that the general health will be vast
ly improved
We do not profess to know what effect the too
free use of these fruits may have upon people gene
rally, and cannot therefore, say that they do or do
not produce cholera but 1t strikes very forcbly
that if gentlemen employing negroes were to feed
and lodge them properly, and could prevent them
from using poisonous liquors, they could much
more readily stop the diseases, than by the con-
sumption OF melons, and permitting the use OF bad
liquors.
Even the physicians of the city do not agree upon
the subj ect Of diet at this time Some of them say,
continue the moderate of fruits and vegetables
as heretofore taking to that they freely
ripe and well cooked, while others say, trouble no
thing of the sort at the peril of your life. Where
such opinions are given, how can the masses de-
cider We trust that the Council will be convened
al an early period of time-that number of the
best physicians will meet with them-and that after
consultation and fair comparison of their opinions,
such steps will be taken as to the public mind
on the subject. If melons are dangerous, they
should not be used; if healthy, let them be sold by
all means.

IupoRrAsr MoyE.-It bias been suggested

70 n. that meeting of the Tobacco Manufacturers
of the ciy would be held in few days. for the pur
pose OF considering the propriety Of feeding the SER
wants in their employ, during the remainder of the
summer months, and also to suspend the payment
of their .over work wages until the disappear
ance of cholera. If the manufacturers take these
important steps and rieidly adhere TO them, they
will do more to remove the cause OF cholera among
the negro population than all the action that be
had by the City Council from now until Christmas
Improper diet and dissipation just such things
as this terrible disease feed upon. Those who are
temperate and prudent have nothing to fear from
cholera, or any other dsea e butthe incorporate,
who sleep in damp cellars. and feed upon ursound
and badly cooked food readily fall prey to its ra-
wages It's no uncommon thing now to see facto-
ry negro devouring half ripe watermelon for his
breakfast or dinner; and despite the cautions OF
their masters they will continue to do SO as long as
this tempting fruit is brought to market and they
have the means to purchase 1t. If you advise them
against its USE the only reply you will get IS wa.
termelops won't hurt me-Pve been eating them all
summer" Believing, as most of them do, that IT
born to be hung they can't die Of cholera, they laugh
at your admonitions and bid defiance to DEATH
How then can they be guarded against the prevail
ing disease, unless the means ofpurchasiDg lmpro-
per articles are withheld from themi And who has
the power to do this save their employers? We
ask the attention of manufacturers to the subject
and trust they win act promptly upon it.
