CHOLERA has almost disappeared from

capped So far, but we should not act as
though it cannot come here. Doubtless the
good people of Union city, West Ten
nessee, thought thus, until it at one
bound of hundred miles, came there
and spread terror and dismay all over
the town and county. Columbia seems to
he proof against epidemic cholera. 1t has
escaped them all, even when adjoining
towns were destroyed as by a curse.
There are many reasons why our town
Is healthy every portion lies so that it
Is easily drained, and no stagnating
pools of water can be nurtured; the
streets and alleys are wide and kept
clean by wise laws and efficient officials,
the principal streets and the residences
are kept cool and pleasant, by shade
trees, and we are supplied by pure, good
water Surely are we peculiarly bless
cd, Columbia presents to the people Of
the South, many inducements as sum-
Iner resort, and it is no wonder they pa
trOnize our peerless female schools.
