Cure for the Cholera.
A NrLrlrrpE or couNsRLLoRs.

The reports of the mildness Of the present
visitation of cholera, which were 50 carefully
disseminated some weeks since, have oil proved
incorrect, and Europe is now under visitation
OF the epidemic. The usual alarm Is experienced
one class Of persons accepting It's coming
as q dlspensatiOn to which we must submit and
another class devsing modes to mitigate the &C.
verify of the visitation and TO cure the disease.
One writer declares, very nationally, that
cleanliness, good food, regular habits, will al
most secure person or place and where
these are wanting there is no security.
Another ass ures us that cholera, in its first
stage, can always be successfully treated, unless
the system is weakened by other diseases, by dis
sipation, or by some special cause. A Rev. Dr..
flamlln suggests this cholera mixture Equal
parts, by weight, Of liquid audanum, spirits of
oamphor and tincture Of rhubarb which has
been used here, not only by him, but by many
others, with the greatest success in meeting the
first stages Of the disease. II diarrhna is care.
fully kept of by the use OF this mixture, the
danger Of cholera is very slight.
In the second stage of relaps and cramps clear
brandy taken internally, mustard plasters and
other means Of keeping up external heat, by
friction, etc, are very often used with success.
There is always hope in cholera until the patien
is actually dead, and in severe cases recovery
often depends upon the persistency and energy
with which the disease is met and Gttcked q
every stage.
Mr. Dane, an Eastern traveller and 0rieDlallst
recommends this treatment for cholera, which
be noticed while residing at Cairo, was yer.
etlectual, had been used in Spain, Constantine
pie and india, and was never followed by typhu
or typhoid fever, which proved fatal in man
cases when the cholera itself had been subdue
by other means.
:" If the patient have vomited the polsonou
matter which is characteristic Of the disease
and resembles rice-water, give Tablespoonful
Of powdered mustard in alumbler Of cold waite
as an emetic After the vomiting whether pro
duced by the disease or the above megn') IN
few minutes give a wine-g assiul OF brandy, wit
ten grains Of capslcum Cayenne pepper stirre
up in it. This generally produces almost imm'
date relief, ard within an hour, rest, perspiri

necessary to take half dose Of brandy and cal
: scum after half an hour or more. A secon
half dose was never required but, should 1t be

escence. 1t has been suggested that fifteen drol

RELIEF IN CAScrp.-Wc find the following in

RELIEF IN CANcER--We find the following il
a recent number OF Gadgnani's Messenger:
" DR.. Brandlni Of Florence, has recently dis
covered that cltric acid will assuage the violent
pain which ID the usual concomitant OF cancer
One Of his patients, aged II at the Hospital Of
Santa della Scala, was afflicted with cancer on
the tongue. There was no possibility Of per-
forming an operation the surface attacked be-
ing lar too extensive investigating the base, the
sub-lingual and tho sub-maxillary glands. The
poor man, in the midst of bis torrents, asked
for lemon, which was nothing very remarkable
as canoerOus patients generally have an extra
ordinary liking for acids. But The scat of the
disorder being in the mouth, a circumstance
was observed which might otherwise have es-
capped attention the juice Of the lemon dmin-
ished the pain. The patient, on finding this,
ked for another on the following day, and it
gave him still greater relief than the day before
This led DR.. Brandini to try cilric acid tself in
crystalized state. garge was composed of
gr. OF the acid in $50 or. OF common water,
and it entirely carried Oft the pain on its re-
appearing the same remedy was repeated with
the same success
In the course Of month this treatment not
only delivered Inc patient from all suffering, but
even reduced the swelling Of the tongue very
considerably. Encouraged by this success, DR..
Brandini tried the same remedy on female
patient 70 years OF age, who for years had
been suffering from an ulcerous cancer on the
breast. The affection had been pronounced in.
durable, and when she was given into our au-
thor's hands, the torrents were SUCH that she not
only could get no night $ rest herself, but pre-
vented The other patients in the same ward from
having any. DR.. Brandiu applied plcdet Of
Int previously soaked in the above solution, tC
the part, and the relief obtained WIS lnstanta.
neous The pam disappeared and when, aitel
the lapse of SIX or seven hours, it began again
fresh application was sufficient to keep 1t oil
Our author quotes several other cases in which
citrc acid produced relief 10 cancer , and h,
justly observes that If subsequent experiments
should prove equally successful, citric acid mus
be considered q great boon to humankind. 4
substance capable of stopping violent pain in al
incurable affection is not less valuable than one
that will effect a cure in more traotable mala
dies"

DO NOT FORGET TO SAVE YOUR FLOWER
SEEDs.-Says your flower seeds. We say now,
because ii is more especially at this period that
the seeds Of our principal anpuas mature. The
true system, however, is, to watch the ripenng Of
the seeds generally-take with you little paper
bags or seed boxes, carefully labelled with the
name Of the seeds which they are TO contain, and
then select from the choicest specimens, one kind
at time, rejecting those not sufficiently matured
as likely to mould and ipjure the rest.
In the matter Of preserving both flower and
vegetable seeds, there is much neglect, and the
absence Of flowers about many homestesds is in q
great measure to be attributed to this neglect.
The ladies ought in all cases TO take charge oil
the flowers--it is naturally their province and
should be their delight. Ii is good method tC
exchange seeds with neighbors aud friends; fol
though the distance may be short, yet Sigh
change Of soil frequently has much influence il
preserving the fine qualities OF the flowers.
We think we can see, within the last few years
great increase 10 flowers around our homestead
and we rejoice at ii, as we always think more
kindly Of the in-dwellers. A few days ago W.
spent short tins with valued friend 10 Mont
gomery County, aud were struck with the yaliet,
and beauty Of the flowers in the yard IN front o
the house. There were even a number Of differ
ent kinds Of greenhouse flowers, which never saw
greenhouse, but which were OF as fine color
and as hourlshing IN appearances as those whol
are tenderly narsed under glass. We soon dis
covered that the fair hand Of woman had lh'
management Of them, and were satisfied that sh,
never lost a seed that was worth preserving d
failed to propagate from the slip when the season
arrived Pity that this fascinating recreation
for fascinating il ough, to be TO every properl!

appreciated and INDUCED in.-Gsr. TEL
