THE CHOLERA.

Would it not be deemed an act of prudence
on the part of the Board of Health and other
authorities of the City of Wilmington, TO
at once inaugurate some measures calculated
TO prevent the spread of the cholera in case
it should threaten this city, as it has already
done in nearly all the cities of Europe? Now
is the proper time to act. We should not sit
down and wait for the disease to walk into
our homes and families and wake us up to the
importance of driving it out, but we should
at this time go TO work and do all in our power
to prevent it from coming into our house
holds. Will our Board of Health and Council
profit by the wise precaution taken by the
authorities of Philadelphia, and act without
delay, or will they pass the matter by until it
shall be too late to prevent its approach, and
too fatal to hope to resist its dreadful ravages
with any degree of success? The following
Is the action of Philadelphia
REPORT OF THE SANITARY COMMITTEE OF
THE BOARD OF HEALTH ON THE SUBJECT OF
CHOLERA, Aa PRESENTED TO AND ADOPTED
By SAID BOARD, SEPTEMBER Is, 1S66.-The
Sanitary Committee, to whom was referred a
preamble and resolution passed by the Board
present sanitary condition of our city, in
view of the steady approach of cholera TO,
wards this western hemisphere, and the pro
per steps, if any, that may be required to
prevent its appearance and spread in ouI
midst, beg leave to report the following;
| In view of the present excitement regard
ing the prevalence of cholera in various
places on the continent of Europe, and the
well-grounded apprehension, based upon its
| Ia nY,A fI,at nt 1sa
tant period it may again visit this country,
the Board Of Health have not been unmindtu
that due provision should be made in season
having for its object either to avert the dis
ease altogether or mitigate its severity, should
it appear in our city.
To this end they claim the early and zeal
Gus attention of the Mayor and Councils Il
the rigid enforcement of all existing sanitary
ordinances, together with their hearty anc
cheerful cooperation with this Board in tht
adoption and carrying out of such hygienit
appliances as, in a sanitary point of view
may place our city in a condition most tavo
rable to resist the scourge, if II should appear
believing that at all times, prevention il
better than cure, " and that TO be forewarne(
is to be forearmed at the approach of al
enemy.
The present, therefore, is the time wher
wholesome sanitary regulations, properly di
rected, may change the future of our city
should cholera visit u.s.
1t becomes us, therefore, as the guardians
of the public health, not only to weigh wei
and reflect carefully upon our respOnslbilitl
} in this matter, but without delay, and by al
active and thorough interposition, institute
. such system of sanitary and medical polio
as shall be adequately adapted to meet an,
and every emergency with which we may b
threatened, or called upon in the Providenc
} of God to meet.
