The following remarks OF DIR. Bowl
ing, Of Nashville, Tenn, a practitioner
Of third of century, and one of the
meet enlightened medical men Of the
country, will command attention:
We have battled with every epidemic
cholera, from the first to the last day, in
our region Of operation, which has visi.
ted this country, and we affirm, without
the fear Of successful contradiction, the
following truths of this postilence which
walketh in darkness, and destruction
which wastcth at MONDAY.
al. That prudence in the use Of all
things pertaining to man as an animal,
is of the first Importance.
"2. That this prudence, in many
things, ia imperfect, and therefore use
less, short Of positive interdiction-total
abstinence.
"3. That among the interdicted is
every description Of fruit, non-cereal
vegetable, and animal products, as milk
and eggs. We say non-cereal, so as TO
admit brcad-stufs, which the goodness Of
God has stamped with innocence even
here, for lie has declared them the staff
Of life.
1--WE do not regard fruit and vegeta.
, bles an exciting cause Of cholera, and we
would not be understood as so teaching.
But if the ship be overtaken by the
storm Of cholera while laden with vege-
tables, il sinks. This is what we teach.
But if so overtaken without vegetables
ON board, she weathers the storm and
enters port unimpaired. Those during
the cholera who eat fruits and vegetables,
are no more liable to be assailed than
those who abstain; but If they are as
sailed, they diei Tis is the rule-the re-
coveries under such circumstances con-
stitute the exceptions. When a non
vegetable and non-fruit eater is assailcd
with cholera, his system responds instant
ly to medicine. while the system of the
fruit and vegetable eater will frequently
not respond at all, and his physician will
find the result the same, whether he put
the medicine in the patients boot or
stomach.
"Neither in 1850 nor 1854, have we
found single instance in which a non
vegetable and non-fruit eater died Of
cholera, save we count a few cases Of
children with summer complaint dying
with symptoms Of cholera superadded,
while all the deaths occur among those
who indulge in these very innocent luxu-
ries. In a conflict with cholera, the
bullets Of the enemy, from a masked
battery, are flying in every direction,
and any one is liable 10 be hit; but woe
TO the soldier who is cut down with fruits
or vegetables in his stomach, for his
wound is immedicable. He may recover,
but he cannot be cured, and the chances
are many against his recovery. We
have more than once seen fruit or vege-
tables elected or voided in the death
struggle, when reaction would immedi-
ately begin, and recovery result.

SELE GOXEKNMENT ,

When a revolution occurs in one of the
European states, and the people rise in
their might and throw off the chains which
have so long bound them down to the
wrongs, expressions and discomforts of a
despotism, we, at first, experience II relief
arches are becoming. year by year, more
and more effete, and we appreciate the
fact that they do not furnish the govern
ment needed by the people, and we are,
therefore, ready to welcome any change rs
promising something better With few
days or, perhaps. hours reflection. orr ar
dor is dampcncd, rs we remember every
people is not fitted, either by nature or ed
ucation, for self government With this
thought, we commence 10 croak, and all,
with one accord, predict HAT the republic,
its stcad-if it is a change from royalty to
rcpublicanism or democracy will be short
lived and that the old order Of things will
soon return. 1t will be noticed. however,
that we generally coniinc this class of
predictions Ia the countries of the old
world, taking il for granted. apparently.
that all the states or communities of Amer
lea understand, hy instinct, as il were the
theory of self government, and know how
to carry the theory into practical operation

ways upon the basis that the people will
govern. and that, even if they cannot re-
strain disorder, they can take care of
themselves. When Louis Napoleon, using
Macmillan as an unwilling tool, attempt

we had not had ''lttle unplcasantness
of our own on our hands, we should, prob
ably, have rendered little friendly assist

MeXicans governing Mexico, while, in fact,
we know that they are no more-if as
much so-qualified for self government
than the people of France or Spain We,
all of us, understand the theory, principle
and practice of self government too well

their meaning We express the whole idea

Soon after his graduation he was married
to Miss Lydia White of Craftsbury, and en-
tered on his chosen profession of teacher
ut Danyille, Canada, where he remained
until 1863, when he took charge of the
academy mt johnson, Vt. Here he contin-
ued to teach until 1867, when the academy
became one of the three Normal schools
of the state. Mr. Pearls marked success
as teacher, rs well as acknowledged
influence and interest in the cause of
education, induced the state board of
education to unanimously nominate him
for the position of principal of the
new Normal school at johnson, Il
nomination which met with the approval of
the trustees of the school This position
he continued to hold till 1871, when he was
induced to accept a similar position in the

possessing quiet, retiring disposition, with
the habits and diligence of true scholar.
Mr.. Pearl did not attract public attention
so much by the brilliancy of his acquire
ments as by the practical and solid charac-
ter of his qualifications as successful edu-
Gator. His genial nature and sterling in
tegrity won the confidence and esteem of
those with whom he had to do, and the
reputation he acquired in his profession,
during the comparatively few years in
which he was allowed to discharge its du-
ties, extended far beyond the fields of his
labor. His health, never very firm, grad
ually yielded to the confinement of his
work. and his death at the last was not UNI
expected by his friends. He leaves Il wife
and two children to mourn his loss. -Bur-

champion of the world. who carried off the
80 900 prize in the great international con-

young man was found ON the ground COW

it was found the scalp was badly cut and
the skull fractured. The spine was bent

lungs are badly injured His recovery is
deemed very doubtful. ltappears that the
young man has been a somnambulist for
some time. He often arose in his sleep
from his bed and wandered about the hall,
where he has been seen and sent safely
