Ride'--Hoyv IL was
written

That noble minstrel Of the war, Thomas
Buchanan Read, is in town, supervising the
departure of his family for Europe. 1t can
not increase his fame to state how "Sheri-
dams Ride" came to be written; but as
curiosity of literature, we give the following
version thereof, believing it will be found
correot:
Mr.. Murdoch, the tragedon; had devoted
himself during the early years of the strue-
gle, with noble and self:sacrifciax patriot
ism, to the task of raising money for the
SANITARY Commission, and all other beneve-
lent projects intended for the benefit of cur
soldiers. He had delivered lectures and
recitatlons all over the country, the proceed.
going to the objects we have named and at
length, as the war was drawing to close. bis
numerous friends in Chicago proposed =
magnificent ovation for MIR. Murdoch's own
6enett-hls finances having somewhat suf-
tered from his unself-h and unspairing ef-
forts in the cause of the soldiers and the
country. At breakfast on the morning of
the benefit night Mr. Murdoch, who wa.
staying at Mr.. Reads house, land. by the
way,who had been chiefly or at least largely
recitlng Mr.. Reads noble lyrics and battle
sketches durHg the two years preceding, J
remarked to kis poet friend. II m sorry, Mr.
Read, that you did not give me some orig
inal poem for to night. Something new aud
fresh, that would rouse the audience and
set the blood lesping through my braius as
speak. The fact is feel rather dread
of this occasion; and without some stimu-
lous of the kind cannot speak as well for nay
self as did for Others. Mr. Road suggest
ed that 1t was not yet tso late If Mr.
Murdoch really wished it he would try his
hand at something new. Murdoch. how
ever, persisted that it was too l.ts-frstly,
because poets can not always write TO order;
secondly because he, Murdoch, would re-
quire some hours TO study whatever Mr..
Read--even in the brief space allowed him
might find his muse willing to offer.
Nevertheless" said Read, 'I'll try. That
ride of Shcrdan's from Winchester to Ce-
dar Greek, We have just been reading abou,
gives me subject; and if you stay here
some few hours, III run up to my library,
and see what can be done"
la less than three hours he returned to
the breskiast-parlor and placed in the hands
of the tragedian, equally delighted and as
tonished. the perfect manuscript of that no.
blest and most fiery of all our war songs.

How to Meet Cholera.

First, have q clear conscience. Naxt, at
tend to the following directions
Cholera has two stages; a premonitory,
or mild stage, and stage Of collapse, which
is fatal The premonitory stage is ushered
in by mild, painless diarrhea, which gem
orally continues for hours, sometimes for
days, before the stage ofcollapse sets in. In
this premouitory stag of the disease is read
lily and promptly durable by simple remedies,
combined with rest in the recumbent posi-
ton. All that is necessary, therefore, TO
prevent fatal attack OF cholera, is that the
patient shall lie down, keep warm and quiet,
snd take such remedies as viii relieve the
disrrhosa.
A knowledge of these facts led many Eng
lish towns, in former visitstions of cholera,
to organize a body of visitors, under the di-
rsctioI OF central medical board, whose
duty it was to visit from house to house,
two, three or four times daily, and inquire
in every family for these cases of disrrhes.
Each visitor carried the proper remedy. and
personally attended to its administration.

bed. The result of those Organizations
was NEST happy; in numerous instances
