TuR VIEWS OF SECRETARY MoCuLLocH ON THE
NEGRO QUESTION. McCulloch, of the
Treasury Department, has had late conversation
with an ex7Judge from New Orleans who, in years
past, was his old school master The later reports
the substance of his conversation with the Secretary
in the Mobile Times. The Times says;
ssers,ktYrseSll6ch knowing wen The influence
which our friend possessed in Louisiana, told him
in substance that so far as the pretended equality
of races was concerned, there could be but one
opinion among all good men North and South, and
this was, that wherever the1Anglo Saxon race had
come in contact with inferior one the history Of
fifteen cehtifies had proven that the Anglo Saxon
race must dominate or eXterminatc.
The the Indian, race, far superior 10 the black,
had been utterly ahnihihted before the advance Of
the whites, and this, although the Indian race was
morally, and intellectually vastly superior to the
That no sane man, no American could dream for
moment of making this country, where God had
showered so many blessings, to the race made after
his own image the inheritance Of any but those he
had endowed with an intelligence all but divine.
The question of labor sinks into nsignifcance
before that Of races, and the march of human pro-
gress is not to be suspended by the idle theory Of

THE NEW REMEDY FOR CHOLERA.

In letter to the London Times, DIR. John Chap
man gives an interesting account of the result Of
his treatment ef eholsrss patients at Southampton
by the application of ice bags to the spine, already
noticed in the London eorrespeadence He states
the points Of his theory as follows ga IAq5ah
That the naucea, vomiting, copious discharge Of
the we'll known "rice water stools. cold swea,
and peculiar odor from the body, are due to the
combined actonof the hyperemic spinal cord and
Sympathetic nervous cente. s. in the same manner
as they induce phenomena of the like kind though
less in degree In cases of summer diarrhee and of
sea sickness when 1t is accompanied with diarrhea
That cholera is neither contagious nor infectious
in any sense whatever, except thrOughthe depress-
ing influence of fear. -. , an ~
That cholera may be completely averted, and,
when developed cured by modifying the tempera-
ture Of the spinal region. - - 4. -,
After detailing the symptoms Of two cases of
cholera which fell under his observation Or. Chap
man offers the following suggestions for the use Of
!. The cold must be applied along only narrow
strip-not more than four inches broad in the adult
down the very centre Of the back: 3 ear s,,l;.5
2, The cold must be dry, not, wet cold. 3, 'ea.
3. The ice bag should be continued along the
whole spine only until The cramps and algide symp-
toms have been subdued. IA .5s .ts,- -.
4. The ice-bag should be continued to be applied
70 the lower bali Of the spine until vomiting and
purging cease. -, f,,,s M o.1 ..s,a :. .s. ,.a1
g. The patient should be assidpousy watched
to guard in the stage Of reaction, against cerebra
or pulmonary copgestions, the development o.
which will be facilitated by continuing the ice toe
long in the cerycal and dorsal regions. ~ atb,t.
g.. If such congestions should occur they will b.
denoted by heaviDess, incoherence, wandering. and
by laborious breathing, and may be subdued by mp
plying the double columned water bag at tempe

- The preamble and resolution are, Ia his opin-

that they leave out names equally or more guilty
Q. To say that James Buchanan is one who ade-
serves az ought to receive the extreme pcnaltyaof
the law, is, in bis opinion, absurd and even Grim
ina, Whatever his political opinions were there Is
not the slightest pretense that he ever committed
any over acts Of treason for which he could be
tried and convicted in any court on carth.a Such
resolves under such circumstances, become nothing
else than mere denunciations of passion and party
rancor, the tendency Of which can only be evil.

and beauty of the truths which constitute the body

Our Financial Future.

The New York Chamber of Commerce
has adopted resolutions in favor Of the
financial policy indicated by Secretary Me-
Culloch, in his Fort Wayne speech. His
recent action in funding fifty millions of
legal tender notes is also declared to be
wise and beneiicent measure. 4 return to
specie payments at the earliest possible no.
meEt is, according to the views of the
G! amber of Commerce, a necessity which
should be constantly held in view with hope
currency may be kept down and matters
gradually prepared for sound business opera
tons. Whilst too sudden cur.s ilmcnt of
the currency would naturally create embar-
ra srent and loss, it is to be hoped that the
reduction will be gradual and certain, and
that no enlargement of the circulation,
either of legal tender or National bank
notes, will be allowed. The Chamber of
Commerce resolves to protest emphatcally
against every appeal to be made to congress,
at the approaching session, for authority to
increase the issue of National Bank currencv
beyond the three hundred millions authorized.
or the issuing of single dollar more of
paper money in any form. These express
sions of opinion, which come from the
accredited organ of the views of the mer-
chants of New York, speak authoritatively
for them. The resolutions cannot be without
their effect, and it may be said that they not
only speak the wishes of the persons who
adopted them, but that they express the
opinions of all classes of citizens except
stock gamblers and spectators, who riot in
the fluctuations of the currency, and expect
to make what thousands lose.
