The cholera continues to show itself with
considerable violence and fatality In Ger
that the manner in which the disease spreads
this ycar is more mysterious than ever. In
many instances the pestilcncc has invaded
isolated localities at considerable distances
from each other without touching. the inter-
vening districts, and sometimes not even the
immediate ncighborhoods Of the places in
tested. In other cases whole tracts have
been its prey. At present 1t is most yiru1cnt
in tue Ncnmnrk, fh9 northeastern portion
Of Brnndenbtlrg, on tho right side Of
the Oder, where some small towns
hare been positively decinlated. In
ants, six hundred hare died; in Seudamn,
nearly as popLlous, there is scarcely ! house
which hns not case Of death; in Soldin and
koniC6berg, two. other towns in thai neigh
borhood, the fatality Is as great, while the
villages of the entire district, in striking
contrast with the towns, are all but free from
tie taint-
Northwest Of Berlin. Hamburg and Prem
ziau, which were dangerous centres Of the
disease, have ceased to supply their former
quota. At Prenziau, with a population Ut
1900 souls. W0 have persisted. At
Leipsic, With 5000 souls, the daily
Sdaas whote ii; ico ooo Inhabitants % h have lad
',e75 cases and 4. .152 deaths, the mortality
has dwindlcd to between five and ten 4 day.
GotLa, which. with the greater part Of Thu,
rinCia, was sirgularly exempt until the be-
ginning Of September, hasShad eighty-one
case., Of which fifty-two terminated fatally

some other plnccs. Berlin, Which, notwitG
