l am, dear Sir,
Your obdt. servt
JOHN NICOLAS MOSSEEN.
Frederiksted, the 14th of November 1865.
To the Editor of the St. CrOix Avis.
DEAR SIR,

LEAN 0lh,
I see from the st. Thom9 Tidende OF
the 18th instant that attention is beng
called to the probability otauewoutbreak OF
Cholera in that island, and that the Au-
thorities are requested to take p%recaution-
airy measures against such a possible Gala
nifty.
The chances of such an outbreak seem
to me very great. Is our Island likely
to be exempted from such a visitation Z? [
do not see why it should be. Should
Cholera break out in this Island what
then ?-I shall only call attention to one
fact which on reasons independent OF the
outbreak Of an epidemic, may perhaps be
considered worthy Of notice. In case OF
such an outbreak it would become of para
mount Importance. There are about
$4,000 persons in this Island,and, to attend
them, I physicians that is, each physi-
clan is called upon to attend upwards Of
5000 individuals. Of the 7 physicians on
ly one is a young man, the others are all
gentlemen far advanced in life they are
no doubt all very skillful, but are they
sufficient for the work to be done. Do we
not require more physicians II we can
not get a sufficient number from Denmark,
why not admit graduates from foreign uni
v%ersities Among the physicians in st.
Thomas two nave graduated at the Paris
University, one of them however, having,
after receiving a diploma in Paris, to go to
Kiel and take out one their. The idea!
If such liberality works well in St. Tho
mas, why should it not here3

are in English two widely different things,
But though inapplicable on Introductory spell
ing, and undoubtedly retarding the progress Of
beginners in reading, it may perhaps be very
applicable on teaching correct spelling in writ
ing English, where the analytic task of spelling
in reading becomes synthetic.
Now, Mr.. Editor! ! shalt conclude, with
many thanks to you and to the Public for pa
tienco manifested in going with me on my long,
though, as [ hope, not tedious discussion. |
am sure, that you agree with me in thinking
it desirable, that all, who feel themselves COM
petent to give calculations about important
public matters by discussing them publicly,
should do so. We may be said to have only a
"Landshing'' here, as only moneyed interests
are represented in our Colonial Council it
might do much good, if a selfconstituted
"FoHeHiag," with yourself as their President,
would publicly discuss our spiritual interests,
and thus form a clear and strong public opinion.
That there are gross defects in our public in
struction, no sensible and unbiased man will
deny. The usual way of excusing such things,
if they are admitted at all, is to say "T0 err as
human.' We all know and admit that, and so
did Cicero, when he wrote 'CujU&ris hompini&
est elYare - but he added: "AauJH- nlSl NJ
sipientis est IL er20re Po9~ccerarc." 1t will now
be seen, whether those, who are able to carry
out chat immediate and thorough reformation
of our educational affairs" which is so impera-
lively demanded" are "iasipientes' or even
something worse,
