3D. Do not alter your ordinary diet
Some people begin 10 eschaW all tTuit and
vegetsbles, when cholera comes, or starvt
themselves By . scanty diet Such viii
soon fall into the very net they woulc

avoid stale and unripe fruit or vegetables
The writer eat peaches, plums and grape
while he was going night and day o.
tending cholera patients, (ot eourse II
moderStion), and never had the dTstsymp

sleeping and eating apartments; and uSe
diintectants literally about your cellars

hundred sO.cAlled cholera specifics, but
lie down, keep as quiet as possible, and
send for some respectable physician.

various treatments, the physicians with

demiC OF cholera, which rSged in COlum'
bis, Pa, September, 1854, came to the
conclusion that the true treatment was not
that which amied primarily at SHgprcGitng
but at altering the secredoDA We gave
in many cases cathastics, with the best re.
suits. We found that we could more
easily check the excessive vomiting and
purging than We could prevent what

and heart. II the writer today was AZ
attacked with cholera, he would nse Gallo
mel combined with opium, in frequently
repeated and small doses, until It showed
its effect en- the secretions q the stomach

OF the river navigation, tho longer SEQ Journey,

NEW York, October 30.-The suit of Will.
liam F.. Britton against Benjamin F. Butler,
to recover S15, 900, the amount of two drafts
seized by General Butler in 1882, while he
was military Governor Of New Orleans,
came up for hearing before Judge Woodruff
in the United States Circuit Court to-day.
GeneralsButler was present and advised the
United States Attorney, who defends the
action Oh behalf of the Government.
The counsel for MIR. Britton stated that in
1862 a man bearing two drafts drawn by the
firm Of which Britton was partner, doing
business in Natchez, Mississippi, was ar
rested while attempting to cross from the
rebel lines into New Orleans. The drafts
were then vaIueless, but General Butler
compelled Mills, Jud>on & Co., who were
agents in New Orleans for Britton j. Co.,gto
endorse them, and then got them cashed.
He claims that Britton was not an enemy of
the United States, and that his property
could not therefore be con6scated by nm
agent Of that Government. The case is still
going on. -.-.. ,-...,sT.
L0ter.-General Butler testified that he
seized the drafts as rebel property, made the
proper return Of the facts Of the seizure to
the Government, through the provost mar
shall generals department. and devoted the
amount obtained on the drafts for public prlr-
poses, such as feeding the sick in New Or
leans, strengthening the Mississippi river
Notifications, and defraying the expenses of
his secret-service force. !
The case was heard by Judge Woodruff,
without jury, and he is TO decide on the
law points involved.

The report of the Second Auditor OF the
Treasury will show that the number Of &C
counts examined by that bureau during the
past fiscal year was 4S,9G9, of which 80, 420
were for bounty, arrears of pay, etc, aggre-
eating over $4,000 900. Three hundred and
nine, y-tWo charges, amounting to S57 ,251
were raised against officers Of the army and
volunteers on account of over payments and
double payments, and go Of this sum was
recovered and turned into the Treasury.
The accounts of fOrty-thgee- paymasters
have been balanced, an aggregate of nearly
$4,000 having been deposited by them to
cancel their Indebtedness 10 the United
States. The Office continues Oh the alert for
fraudulent claims, and the Auditor is deter.
mined that rigorous prosecution shall follow
every detected case involving fraud; forgery,
the unlawful withholding of money by
clailn-ayents, &c. Five hundred and twenty
seven Of such cases were disposed OF during
the year, and $4,000 recovered. These IN

Financial Matters:

NEW YoRK, October 3O.-The failure OIL
Hoyt, Sprague &c Co. has caused heavy de,
Cline In values on Stock Exchange and de-
preston outside. The:restoration Of conf
dence previously going on has received a
check by this event which can only he looked
upon rs a public calamity in the present con.
dItion Of affairs. -
The failure Of the Bank Of England direc,
tors to advance their rate of discount to-day
caused decline here in both gold and for.
eign exchange. There is no change in the
monetary situation, call loans still being done
at per cent. to 1-32.
The associated banks to-day gained 1928,
900 in legaltendcrs. There is fair activity
in railroad bonds at lower prices. The stsck
market opened steady. but soon became
weak. and continued to decline until the
o'clock board, when an upward reaction SET
in. The decline ranged from one to four
per cent. throughout the list, and the re-
voyery up to o'clock from one and a hall
to one and three-quarter per cent. Since
then the market has weakened again.
