Cholera D1sinfectfon.


 We have given briefly in these columns the means to be employed to prevent the intro duction of cholera into the United States. and we now invite the attention of our readers to the best means of combating the disease should it once obtain foothold here. It is understood, from what has already been said. that municipal cleanliness is absolutely neces- sary to prevent the germs of the disease from multiplying outside the human body, and the only question with which we have now to deal is, what is the best plan that can be adopted to destroy the germs as they pass from the cholera infected persona
 Cholera is not transmitted by contact. but by an organic infeeting matter, passed with the evacuations of those affected, which must gain entrance into the intestinal canal to pro- duce cholera in another. In this lies the whole secret of an effectual preventive treat ment If we can destroy the organic infect ing matter the instant it has passed from the patient, cholera cannot spread: or. what amounts to the same thing, if we can prevent the infecting matter of the cholera fIeiacta from reaching the intestines of other nersons we prevent them from getting cholera. Our efforts in this direction, therefore. constitute the true preventive treatment of this disease. II we can only preserve the drinking water from contamination, it is impossible for chole- ra to become epidemic. The leading princi-
Morning journal and courier., 1884-08-08

pies upon which we must rely for effecting l this object are, first, to destroy the organic l infecting matter as it passes from the patient by means of solution ofcorrosive sublimate, or of sulphate of iron, or by some acid req gent. taking care that the eyacuations thus treated are buried in the earth away from l wells or sources of water supply; and second
 ly to disinfect or destroy all articles of cloth ing, furniture, or, in fact, anything to which the choleraic discharges could adhere.
 The popular idea of disinfectant is a something that will destroy tsbad smell, D while the fact is, such destruction may not affect the fornites of cholera, which are al most odorless A cholera disinfectant must be germicide or it is worthless.
 The simplest and cheapest disinfectant for this purpose is a solution of bichloride of mercury or saturated solution of sulphate of iron (copperas).- A solution of bichloride of mercury is readily made by adding an equal quantity of common salt as a solvent, and dissolving in water in the proportion of gramme of the mixture to 1 ,000 cubic cen timetres of water, or 1 ounce to 9 gallons of water; and saturated solution of copperas by dissolving all the powder copperas given quantity of water will take up. Both of these disinfectants are odorless.
 A small quantity of either of these solutions should be placed in the vessel receiving the discharges of a cholera patient, and another portion poured over them immediately after the vessel is used. Then the contents of the vessel should be emptied into the water-closet buried, or, better still thrown into furnace. All clothes or other domestic articles that can be washed which have been contaminated should be soaked in solution of one or the other of these disinfectants, and if the furni- ture or floor has received any of the fomites, it, too, should be thoroughly washed with the bichloride solution. These solutions can be used about the premises, if necessary, with a spfnklipg pot, and all suspicious places wet down and thoroughly disinfected.
 There are many other cheap disinfectants, but they are open to the objection of disa- greeable vapors, such chloride of lime, car bolic acid, sulphurous acid, etc. The bi chloride solution, besides being odoriess, its no more dangerous than any other disinfectant that can be named while it is more cleanly and quite as readily prepared, ,as well as being cheaper than the now favored carbohc acid.
 Isolated hospitals for cholera patients who are unable to provide for themselves, and their immediate removal to these hospitals upon the appearance of the first symptoms the malaise which usually precedes cholera would simplify the management of the dis ease and with absolute cleanliness, proper disinfection, a well-regulated diet, and unpol- luted water, all fear of an epidemic cholera in the United States may be dismissed, even should it escape our quarantine guards and appear in our midst.

A Dam that Causes Alarm.

The dam at North Bridgeport has recently been raised some four or five feet and mate rial is ready for 8 further addition. Bridge port people aFe getting disturbed over the matter and it Is said in both the Standard and the Farmer of Wednesday that there is danger in the increase already made. The Farmer quotes the statement of 8 man E'thor- oughly conversant with the condition of the dam" that if the dam should give way ''it is certain that every bridge between the dam and the Sound would be swept away and an immense amount of damage to property along the river and harbor would result. Indeed, It would be miracle if many lives were not lost and perhaps a whole train of loaded cars might be caught and engulfed." Another man reports the water already oozing through near the waterway. It is added that in case of breakage of the dam the Hydraulic compa- ny's chief source of supply would be crippled or destroyed and the city be menaced by a probable water famine, also that the recent raising of the dam has flooded land owned by the city.

The Bears Run the Market - Their
 Heavy Raids Make Low Prices at
 the Close.

NEW YORK, Aug. z.
 The bears controlled the stock market to all ap' pearances to-day and raided values down frequent ly Prices received but little support and with the exception of few rallies was kept the downward turn during the entire day. The transactions, how ever, were only moderate scale and excited but little interest. A number of the leading operators were absent at the regatta for the American Yacht club, which also gave the bears better opportunity to get in their work. They raided the leading stocks in vigorous manner, invariably forcing them down sharply. The unexpected outcome of to-day's meeting in Chicago of the representative roads which are to adjust their differences also a depressing factor in the market. The latest des- patches-received from the meeting were anything but of favorable nature and in the last hour there was an active selling of the whole list but more es pecally the stock of the road interest and the ket closed weak at about the bottom figures of the day. The decline ranged from Ii to per cent. as compared with yesterdays closing. The special ties were dull and without change of importance

A union temperance meeting was held in the Congregational church last Sunday even ing Addresses were made by Judges By denburgh and Deming of New Haven. Both gentlemen were very interesting in their re- marks and deserved1y received the thanks of the community for making the evenings meeting so entertaining and instructive.

 The hot weather still continues and the farmers are discouraged Those who have grain out see it growing as though sown and soon it will be good for naught unless we can have some sunshine, winch seems not altogether impossible but very improbable at present.
 A church sociable was held in the new chapel on Wednesday evening. The older members of the church were there to meet the younger ones in the afternoon, while the evenings gathering was mostly young people. It was purely of social nature and all re- port nice time. Such gatherings are help, both to old and young, in promoting ac quaintanceship in the church and commun- ity, and all, it seems, would prefer to have them more often as there seems to be no other way to get the people together to pro mote social intercourse among them.
