treatment of the Cholera.

Mr. E. W. Lane. the we'll known cas-
tern traveller, gives this receipt of the treat
ment of cholera: IF the patient have not
vomited the poisonous matter which is a
characteristic of the disease, and which re-
sembles rice water, give table spoon full
of powerful mustard in tumber of cold
water as an emetic. After the vomiting
(whether produced by the disease or the
above means) within few minutes, give
wine glass of brandy, with Ten grains Of
powdered capsicum Cayenne pepper)
stirred up. This generally produces al
most Immediate relief; and in an hour rest,
perspiration and sleep. In few cases it
was found necessary to give a half dose
of the brandy and capsicum, after half an
hour or msre. A second half dose was
never required; but should it be required,
it may be given. TO accelerate conyal-
scence, it has been suggested that fifteen
drops Of mixture Of spirit of ammonia
and a sulpherie eitherin equal portions,
may be given three or four times the fol-

The Opening of Iceland.

Another barrier to the liberty of COM
merce has just been thrown down, by a
new Danish law, making trade with Ice
land free to all nations. This trade, not
long since, was a monopoly, held by a
small company of Copenhagen merchants,
who realized such large profits fromit, that
the designation of Iceland traders, by
which they were ordinarily known, was in
some degree synonymous with wealth.
Afterward, all Danes, without distinc-
ton, were admitted, to trade with the is
land, but the Danish Government has
for some time past desired to advance the
the colony from its subordinate position
to an equality with the kingdom in all re-
speets. Several propositions Of this nature
were presented to the Diet, but they have
all encountered more or less opposition,
until the present time. The Diet recently
in session. finally passed law, which has
received the Kings signature, and will go
into operation on the first of April, 1855.
By this law, foreigners are allowed to.
trade with Iceland on precisely the same
footing as Danes. Foreign vesseles, even
when moi freighted by Danish merchants,
may not carry on trade with the island,
but those of more than fifteen tons bur-
then, are also permitted to sail between
the different ports of the island, or between
the latter and any other Danish ports
Those which sail from foreign ports to
Iceland, are at first obliged to reportthem-
selves at one of the six authorized points
of the island, viz: Rekikvik, West Man
nee, stykkisholm, Isaford, Oelford and
Eskaford; but this restriction is unimport-
ant, as the Icelandic commerce is concent-
rated in these ports. Entire years some
times pass without a single Danish vessel
entering the other harbors.
The principal formality with which fore-
ign vessels must comply, and which IS
equally required of Danish vessels, is to
procure an Ieelandic passport, which will
be furnished to them either by the Danish
Government, or by the Danish Consuls
residing in foreign countries. They must
also carry with them certificate ofhealth,
emanating from the Danish Consul, or in
default thereof, of the authorities Of the
port of departure The manifesto of the
cargo must also be signed by consular
agent of Denmark; but the ful6lment of
this rule gives to foreigners the right of
selling theirsown merchandise, wholesale
or retail, on board their ships, in Iceland,

ACCORDING to the last news from Eu-
rope, received per steamer Canada there
had been slain in the recent battles at SiIis-

while it will be observed there is no infor-

we to believe that the Turkish armies ac-

The Hartford Times tells how Yankee
gets around the Vermont liquor law. He
went over the river from Bellows Falls, in
to New Hampshire, and erected a build
ing on the bank, from which he has run a
wire to his house on the other side. A per-
son enters his house on the Vermont side,
deposits his order and jug, which are placed
in basket and pulled across the stream;
the jugs filled, and takes its way back to
Vermont, to its original proprietor Whc
butaliye Yankee would ever have thought
of that?

70 Tie editors Of lie Eaqqirer,
/ Tie Senate has just agreed to the
House amendment to the Minnesota Rail
Road bill, SO that it enly waits the sigma
ture of the President to become a law.
The success Of this bill has greatly elat-
ed tha hopes Of the friends Of the Fort
Wayne and Council Bluff Railroad Tho
bill making land grants to that road will
certainly pass if it's only taken u this
session, and this, think, viii be doRe,s
The House has just passed the bilRap-
Ipropriating ten millions of dollars to car
Try into effect the Gadsden Treaty. 1t
WAS taken up en- Monday, and has un-
dergene elaborate discussion. AS soon
as the bhl was brought before the House
Colonel Benton opened his batteries upon
Iit, He assaulted it ia real Bentonial
style He bitterly denounced the treaty,
and everybody and everything connected
with it
Lis principal ground Of objection was
that the House had not been consulted,
before the treaty was made, relative to
the money necessary TO carry it into eff
feet. che failure of the President to do
SO he denounced as q oontenptuous in
vasion Of the privileges OF the House
Upon this assumption, he contended that
the treaty was unconstitutional, and that
the money stipulated fs in it should be
withheld, at least until the President
should furnish all the correspondence
connected with 1t,
There were many able speeches made
on both sides of the question: but those
which attracted the most interest were
Col Benton's and GeH. Houston's-the
latter gentlemen being Chairman cf the
Committee Of Ways and Means, who re-
ported the bill. BY the rules Of the
House, any chairman of q committee
having charge Of a bills entitled to an
hours speech after the regulage debate
is closed, General Houston availed HIM
self OF the right to-day, It is the first
set speech he has made this session. He
took issue with Col. Benton, not only on
the points of objection which he raised
against the treaty, but he went further,
and contented the historical facts which
Old Bullion relied upon the to justify his
assumptions; and, in view Of the exten-
sive and accurate learning Of the great
Missourian, it would appear that this was
somewhat bold undertaking,
But Gen II. ''vindicatcd the truth OF
history from the misrepresentation and
pcrversions Of this venerable Nestor. He
showed tnat the Colonel's eagerness to
convict the President Of usurpation ol
power in making this treaty was SO great
as to induce him to distort the plainest
facts in our diplomatic history. He
showed that there never had been an in
stance where President had advised
with the House previous to the conclusion
of a treaty.
Altogether this was very able and in
teresting debate. It is needless to say
Col Benton came out 'ssecond best. y
venture to say that he was never before
more completely whipped in debate. He
was entirely vanquished at his own game;
that is, graphing, in a contest involving
the truth of history Gin. Enquire.

Type-Setting EEachines

The type-setting machine in the Office Of
the Foedrelandet, at Copenhagen, is de-
scribed as follows. If its success is shure,
it will be the first invention of the kind
shat has ever been of any value; and this
is not a great labor-saying machine after
all, as it only does the work Of two men.
The economy Of the affair is not quite ap-
parent -Pihs5ury:I Union.
"Instead of the usualcas and compo-
sing sticks and the compositor standing at
his work, we see a person standing at a
machine with keys like a piano, which he
plays on incessantly, and every touch on
the tangent is followed by aclick ; the let
teris already in its place, in the long ma
hogany channel prepared for it. The
whole is excessively ingenious. In fact
it is fairy work The most wonderful
part is, that it distributes the already used
type at the same time that it sets the new
page, and with an exactness perfecll y
shure. No mistake can ever occur. The
compositor by this machine does four times
as much work as another workman, but as
he requires an assistant to line and page
the set type, this brings it in twice the
amount of type set. The whole ssoclean
and pleasant that it will probably soon be
a favorite employment for women. The
machine occupies very small space, not
more than large chair, and is beautifully
made of hard woods, brass, and steel. It's
success is now beyond all doubt. The
proprietors of the Fodrelandet are SO graf
fled by the one they have, that they have
ordered another. The price is 24o0 Dan
ish dollars. 1t will last, apparently, for
a century OF two without repair. Mr..
Sorenson, the inventor, himself a compos-
itor all his life, kindly shows the machine
to any visitor. OF course compositor
cannot set with this machine at once it
will take short time, few days, for him
to become familiar with the details"
