CURE FOR SMALL-POX. AS the seas

would call attention to the following
cure for that dreaded malady, which is
communicated to German paper in
New York by correspondence China
1t is said to have been discovered by a
surgeon of the British army on duty in
China. The mode of treatment is as
f0!lows$
"Whcn the preceding fever is at its
height, and just before the eruption APP
pears, the chest is rubbed with croton
oil and tartgric ointment. This causes
the whole of tie eruption to appear on
that part Of the body, to the relief Of
the rest. II also secures full and COM
plctc eruption, and thus prevents the dis
case from attaching the fhtctnaF organs.
This rs said to be now the established
mode of treatment in the English army
in China, by general orders, and rs re-
gardcd as a perfect cure"

WAR AND PEsTILENCE IN CUBA
The Cuban patriots, we are told, have
been doubly blessed this summer
They prayed for the appearance of ycl-
low fever TO thin the Spanish ranks,
and have not only received that, but the
cholera in addition. A correspondent
of the New York Times says: "The
cholera has broken out with. incredible
force among the troops at Nueyitas and
other points on the coast, and is already
marching with fearful strides toward the
interior The Havana journals keep
this fact secret. At meeting of the
Board of Health yesterday Juno ID it
was resolved to allow the steamers
Triumfo and Pajaro to land their pas
scngers and freight, without subjccting
them to quarantine or even TO iumiga-
ton but it was resolved to fumigate all
vessels arriving after that date. To give
you an idea of the strength of tho
cholera, | merely cite two instances:
Seven .Cubans captured Spanish Lieu
tenant and three men, who had gone on
hunting expedition near Nucvitas, and
ware leading them towards an insurgcnt
encampmcnt. They rested during the
night near Altamisal. In the morning
only one Spanish soldier was alive, the
other ten having died during the night.
The second case is that of the family of
a Spanish officer in Nucvitas, his wife,
two children and a servant died within
three hours. The Cubans were not
wrong when they relied on the yellow
fever to thin the ranks of the Spaniards
but they did not calculate that cholera
would also make its appearance. The
Spaniards lose fealfully, but it is equal
ly certain that the mortality among the
Cubans is very great, although it is inn
possible to obtain reliable figures"
