1t will be seen from the above that the
deaths reported from the disease were
| greater on Sunday than on any previous
day since its appearance in this city. Yes
| terday, however, shows very co.. sidera-
bic decr ease from that of the day previous
There was considerable alarm yesterday
morning over the reports of Sunday, and 1t
| was freely circulated about the city that as
many as forty deaths had occurred, and al
| increase might be expected on Monday.
| The facts and figures show that Madame
| Rumor was mistaken both as to Sunday and
! yesterday.
In our rounds about town yesterday, we
heard of good deal of sickness here and
there and particularly in the neighborhoOl
of Pearl street, and near the trestle, which,
according to the best information we have,
is good breeding locality for the disease,
That neighborbood, we understand, is thick
| ly populated, most of the houses are with
out the least ventilation, and are so situated
AZ TO receive the full benefit of all the filth
| a and IN
grounds above. However, the reports above
60 to show that the disease is confined to
no one locality, but dispersed and scatter
ed about in different parts of the
| CT V. From The report that we have been
making from day to day, we have noticed
that Ewing Avenue, South Spruce and
along Wilson Spring Branch nave been the
worst localities.
| We again lake occasion 20 recommend
| prudence ia diet among all classes, both ss
regards ed ing aud drinkiny. Use disinfec-
tants about your premises; keep yourselves
and houses clean; don't pour down the nu-
mercus chcl "a mixtures which are floating
around, but if at'acked trust your case 10 8
! physician in whom ycu have confidence
! According to medical science, five varieties
Of cholera have been observed, so different
| in the circumstances Of their occurrence, as
well as in their symptoms, progress and &c.
sulls, rs to merit distinct consideration
! These aye, first, cholera morbus; second
septic cholera; third, bilious cholera; fourth
cholera infsntum; and, fifth, Asiatie chol.
era. The latter variety is not supposed to
exist in this country; but if the prevailing
disease is septic or bilious cholera, a differ
ent treatment may be necessary, and your
doctor ought to be the best judge as to how
your case should be managed.
