The Cholera.

Foreign adv es show that this terri
bile disease is still prevailing with great
mortality in many parts Of the East,
and that it is steadily travelling west
ward in Europe. 1t has appeared at
Marseillcs, in France, and cases have
occurred at other places in the western
part of the Mediterranean. We do
not wish to excite alarm, but we do
desire to see the authorities and the
people themselves taking effective
measures to make the visitation as
light rs possible in case it should come
to our shores Ii is altogether prob
able that we shall have such vista
ton, although we cherish the hope
that, MS the season has so far advanced
we may with suitable precaution be
spared. We do not regard the disease
as either contagious or infectious, in
the ordinary sense of these terms; but
there is no doubt that it may be taken
from one place to another especially
where there is any predisposing cause
existing. Quarantines, however rigid
may not be able to exclude it, and ye
proper quarantine regulations may in
some circumstances prevent its intro
duction.
There is one thing which should be
attended to everywhere, the abate
ment of every nuisance, and the i'm
mediate removal of everything thai
would be calculated to invite the pes
thence. All such nuisances should be
attended to before the cholera appears
AN ounce of prevention is worth ,
pound of cure" and orr authorize.
and our private citizens everywhere
will be doing good work by relnov
ing the ordinary causes of disease
promoting cleanliness, and thus pre-
pairing to make it as mild as possible
and restrict its ravages in case i
should come
The cholera, like most epidemics
but this perhaps most Of all, is great,
aggravated and its victims are multi
piled by that wild terror which is S,
apt to be caused by its first appearance
Multitudes have died Of terror alone
when they thought they had the chol
era; and many more have induced tn
disease by fear, which even in ordinar
times will produce some Of its symp
toms, and these symptoms soon IN.
into actual cholera. Let everything
be done to prevent the visitation, an

excited alarm, but with humble con
{ fidence in that Providence which
