A Jersey paper tells very interesting
story of a little boy in that State He
was climbing an apple tree, and when
upon the topmost limb he slipped and
fell to the ground. He was picked up
and carried to the house in an insensible
condition. After watching by his bed
side through many weary hours, his moth
er perceived signs of returning conscious
ness. Leaning over him, she asked if
there was anything she could do for him,
now that he began to feel better. Should
she battle his forehead, or change his pill
low, or fan him Was there anything
he wanted I Opening his eyes languidly,
and looking at her, the little sufferer
said "Yes want pair of pants with
pocket behind" He got them.

THE MARCH OF THE CHOLERA.

The latest foreign advices show that
the cholera is making serious ravages in
various parts of Europe. In Hungary,
at Beuda, ninety four cases in day is
the average, and the deaths, being TWEEN
ty seven, show mortality Of over thirty
per cent. In Eastern Prussia the disease
has appeared at Gumbeniu, showing a
wide spread of the epidemic in that por
ton of the Continent. But it is also said
that the disease has appeared at Wexford,
in Ireland, far from its seat in Eastern
Europe, and separated by a vast extent
of country which seems to be exemp
from the malady From these facts it
may be supposed that the disease in Ire.
land is sporadic, and is not the true epi
demic cholera which seems to be march
ing westward. Nevertheless, indications
are that the condition of the atmosphere
favors the spread of the disease, and We
know not how soon it may reach our
own shores. 1t is the duty, therefore, of
our health authorities not only to be
watchful, but to take such measures of a
sanitary nature as will make the visit of
the destroyer "a light in its effects as pos
sihle. The Board of Health has done
nothing in relation the horse disease,
which seems to be spreading among US,
possibly. because it may be supposed that
human beings are exempt from that pes
thence. 1t may be so, but the sanitary
measures Of disinfectinn aud cleansing
which are believed to be good policy in
regard to horses, have been proved to be,
in former experience, the very best meas
ures to guard the health of human be
ings. The Board Of Health ought to take
all the measures necessary to prevent the
cholera from obtaining an easy footho!d
among us. This infection sometimes
travels fast Prudence requires that We
should be prepared for it before it comes.
