Acupuncture for Cholera I'm China.

Very extraordinary cures are attri-
buted to acupuncture by the Chinese.
It is first performed in the hollow of
the elbow of each arm. If the pune
ture draws blood there is no danger.
but if no blood appears the case 10 re-
garded as very grave. But before
abandoning the sufferer, p%uncture Of
the abdomen is tried. Selling a hand
full Of flesh, the operator drives the
needle right through it and then
draws it backward and forward a few
times. If the patient manifests any
sense Of pain, or if any blood is drawn,
a poultice of eggs and b~uckwheat
-four is applied over the puncture, and
recovery is regarded as almost GER
tain; but if no pain is felt and no
blood flows the case is declared hope
less, and the sufferer is left to die.
The case is quoted of a young
Chinese educated abroad, who was
attacked with cholera his extremi-
ties became cold, and cramp set in, in
a somewhat alarming manner. The
barber Surgeon who was called in
commenced by running a needle into
the pit of the patients stomach, a jet
of very dark blood following he
then punctured the calf, the two
breasts, and the forehead of the suffer-
err, freeing a certain quantity Of blood
at each prick. The relief is said to
have been instantaneous, and in two
days recovery was complete. The
Chinese explanation of this treatment
is that when the blood is in the poi
soned condition which induces the
chOleraic symptoms, it becomes thick
and accumulates in certain portions of
the body. A clever knows
exactly how to put his finger on the
particular spots, and by skilfully
Opening the mouth of the heart, as
the operation is called, sets free the
poisoned fluid which causes all the
mischief It is noteworthy that faith
in the efficacy of this mode of treat
ment is not confined to the masses,
but is shared by Chinese who have
been abroad and have had ample ex-
perience of Western medical prac-
tice.-New York Times.

bic to moral force, and will probably
wait to see their enemies faces; but
the rumour OF the advance will en-
courage General Gordon, and per-
haps induce him to write to his supe-
riors. At present he writes to the
Mudir of Dongola only, and always
in Arabic. The Nile has not been
so low for twenty years, and grave
fears are entertained lest the eGpedi-
ton should be rendered impossible.
AS we understand the matter, how
ever, a low Nile will delay, but not
battle, General Wolseley's plan, by
compelling the troops to take u lit
tie earlier to their boats. The local
authorities, including some special
correspondents, gravely resent the
selection of the Nile route in prefer
ence to that by Suakim and Berber,
as also, we perceive, does Sir Samuel
Baker. They send the most low
spirited predictions, asserting that
everything is 'too late" and leave
an impression hat they derive infor-
nation from some one who strongly
recommended the Suakim route. 1t
was supposed that this was General
Stephenson but it may bh Baker
Pasha, who, "under the highest or
ders," has been left out of the ar
engagements. Apnrt from other 9 a
sons, he is an unlucky commander.
The boats which are to form the
hotilla for the ascent of the Nile,
under Lord WoIseley's daring plan,
are being rapidly completed, and on
Thursday one of them was tried at
WooIwich. The boat was launched
in the outer basin of the Dockynrd,
and loaded with the full amount of
the stores to be carried. The cases
were packed in a single layer on the
floor, and along the sides, the boxes
of meat and biscuit rising above the
%gunwaIe, SO as to make a partial pro-
lection against m~usketry. Thirteen
Al6Ii WcGC SCdtCO w VIC OOdlS anu
were quite comfortable, while sic Of
them, three OF whom were noyices in
the use of oars, rowed the boat round
the basin. The boat it WINS ascer-
tanned, with everything on board,
could sail well in fifteen inches Of
water, less than is always to be found
on the Rapids, even with a low Nile.
The hospital boats are to be separate,
"a wise %precaution, as, among men
expected to toll at unusual labour
for SO many days, there will be much
sickness. Pulling round a dock
basin is a different thing from pulling
at intervals for fifty or sirty days in
a cramped boat, and with unaccus-
toned food. Still, 1t has been done,
and tie soldiers in Egypt enter the
boats with a sense of being engaged
in a wonderful picnic, which IS Of
itself celebrating.

partments in Paris diStrust Nj. Ferry's
policy, and th%t his Cabinet is not
united, the Ministers of War and

lar campaign. He retains his ascen-

authorization.
The cholera has struck Naples
heavily. The great city, filled with
700 0 dirty people, living huddled
together in "wynds," and drained by
open sewers into a tideless sea, is the
natural home of an epidemic, and the
attack has been terrible. The seizures
have risen from day to day, until in the
twenty tour hours ending at midnight
on Tuesday the seizures had been
1914 and the deaths 493, and in the
nert twenty four the seizures were
966 and the deaths Ala. The per
Centnge of deaths reveals the disease
i'll its most viruleEt form, and it is
quite possible that the mortality may
increase to 1000 a day. Nothing can
be done to improve sanitary condi-
tons until the epidemic has spent its
strength, as any disturbances of the
drains would increase the pestilence,
and the deaths SO overtax the resour-
ces of the people that bodies are left
unburied ia the streets. The city,
fortunately for itself, is too large for
the usual Italian devices of the Gordon
and TIE quarantine the doctors,
such as they are, do their duty brave
Iy; all large buildings are occupied
as hospitals, and the King, obedient
TO that sense of duty which so con
stantly redeems the faults of his
House, has thrown himself into the
infected quarters. He has visited
the worst districts, carefully inspect
ed the upper floors of hospitals
supposed IN Naples to be the most
dangerous,-and preached courage
and patience at every bedside. The
Neapolltans are wild with admira-
ton and loyalty and the sense of
protection and help on the spot dis
tinctly diminishes the despair which
SO increases liability to seizure. 1t
is in the breach that the House of
Savoy shows its highest qualities.
AS we understand the most recent ad.
vices from the Cape, zululand, beyond the
frontier of the Reserve, is now a Boer Re-
public, with President Joubert at it's head,
claiming independence, but in subordinate
alliance with the Transvaal. The Tories
are furious, but with little reason. The
Beers are a harsh and unprogressive race;
but if we are not to annex-and we have
too much of South Africa already-it is
far better that the Beers should reach the
sea, and stretch themselves across the
path of any further native emigration
from the North. They declare themselves
entirely opposed to any invasion of the
Reserve; and weak and scattered as they
are, cannot afford to Cypress the Zul1e be-

According to the best accounts, NJ.
Ferry still refuses to summon the
French Chambers and ask for heavy
votes of men and money for n Chi.
nese war. He believes that 'the
policy of reprisals" will yet bring Chi
ma to her knees. 1t is stated, on
semi official authority, that Admiral
Courbot is only waiting at the mouth
of the Min for ammunition. and that
when he has received 1t he will strike
some daring blow long since prepar-
ed. It is assumed that this blow will
not be directed at either Hainan or
Formosa, as the Government of Pc
kin is careless about it's islands but
will be levelled either at Canton or
Shanghai. The Chinese are, there
fore, blocking the entrances to all
great ports, to the dismay of traders,
and entering Tonquin, where the
