~ We can hear of no person having even
symptoms of cholera, who daily practices
washing the entire surface of the body with
pure cold water. This is the cheapest and
best of all preventives, and while it adds tc
the general health, cleanliness and comfort
it saves the trouble, expense and disposition
of running away from the cholera.

For the Journal
Exaggerated Reports of Cholera in Perrys-
burg.


Mr.. Editor-I have been amusing myself
for some days past making inquiries of per-
sons from different parts of the county, with
reference to the rumors in their respective
of the extent of the cholera
in our place. | find that all kinds Of exag-
gerated reports have been in circulation.
Some have informed me that it was cur
rently reported and believed in their vicini-
ty, that we were having from II to p deaths
per day, and others, that we had not well
persons enough 10 take care of the sick and
bury the dead. That we have had some ca
ses of cholera will not be denied by any one
residing here. But it hos not, and does not
at this time, prevail as all epidemic. The
number of cases are comparatively few, and
no one, think, need have any hesitation
whatever in coming here to transact any
business from fear of taking the disease.
Out of the five adult citizens who have
been carried away by the disease, four had
not good sound constitution, consequently
were altogether more liable to an attack than
healthy persons, and less probability of re-
covery. Another fact worthy of notice is,
where it ragged most violently, the people
were least noted for cleanliness and the OBJ
servance OF habits conducive to good health
1t will not be doubted, presume, that a
few timid nervous citizens in their prema-
ture fight, by their very looks, words and
actions, have added much to the probable
correctness Of the many false reports
There are some also among us who have
been peculiarly knowing and officious, and
every case of tooth-ache, rheumatism, ague
&C., were promptly reported cholera, with.
out trying to ascertain facts. "But truth
will ultimately prevail" have taken the
trouble to call on the sexton and obtain the
following statement, which is reliable, and
which speaks for itself without any com.
ment. J. w. R.
certify the following to be a correct state
ment of the interments in the Perrysburs
cemetery, of persons whose death was re.
ported to me as occasioned by cholera, from

SATURDAY, JULY l5, 1854.
The state Convention.

We have, in the o. S. Journal of Thursday,
the organization and preliminary proceed
ings of the state convention, held at Celum-
bus on the 18th inst B. F. Leter was pre-
sident. There were 81 vice presidents, one
from each congressional district, ASHER Cook,
ESQ, from the 5th,) and secretaries A
committee of 81 on resolutions was appoint
ed. The Journal says:
To-day the people of Ohio are in conven-
ton in their strength. Nearly every county
IS represented, and the utmost enthusiasm
and good feeling prevail. Not half of those
in attendance can find place to stand, in
Neils New Hall. We have not time to COM
ment on the proceedings to-day, but they are
destined to tell on the future of Ohio.
The following nominations for state Off
GERS were made by the convention:
For Judge of the Supreme Court,
JOSEPH r. SWAN.
For Member of the Board of Public Works,
JACOB BLICKENSDERFER, JR.
Judge Swan lives in Columbus and is q
democrat; Mr.. Blickensderfer lives in Tus
carawas county, is a whig and was formerly
member of the board of public works.

PRINTING PAPER.-This has become one of
the scarcest and dearest articles in market.
Here, in the Maumee valley, where large
and rapidly increasing demand for paper of
all kinds exists, and where there ought to be
one or more paper mills in operation, it is a
very difficult thing for us to procure the lit
tle supply required in our business. We do
not know of any mill that pays greater
profit than paper mill, nor better locality
for the establishment of one than here at the
foot of the rapids of Maumee river.
Having failed in all our efforts for three
weeks past to buy paper of suitable size, and
having exhausted our neighbors with borrow.
ing, if we fail to issue the Perrysburg Jour.
nal next week, the reason will be that WE
cannot get paper. In that case we shall is
sue an extra for advertisers.
