stamp IL out. What has happened in Italy Is
probably the direct consequence OF the DarDar-
ous methods adopted to exclude the disease
IA we pointed out when the Italian quarantine
was first established precautions of that Kind,
as conducted on the Continent, too often prove
the means of disseminating instead of checking
disease. The presumption is that cholera has
dcvclopcd mt some Of the Italian quarantine
stations. If this is not the case, then the quar-
ortinc must have been imperfect. or transporta-
ton of infected clothing or bedding must have
been allowed or overlooked. It's indeed true
that. in every cholera epidemic. cases occur
which IL seems impossible To explain on the the
orv of infection. but then the doctors are agreed
that this il the only way the disease can be
communicated. and if The facts are not always
i'm harmony with this theory, 50 much the worse
for the facts Thirty or forty years ago an
other hypothesis found favor Then II was not
doubted that the disease germs were conveyed

even went SO far "a ~ associate the appearance
or cholorl with my4tcriuus blue mist which
was said to hnng over doumod town or dis

That theory. however. has been discarded,
and now. though Koch aud PaatrW do not
altogether agree. the world stands committed 10

The latest new. is that it has appeared IN Eng

promotion Of rCc0ycrcS is much larger than

due TO better dictctlc and sanitary conditions.
The MASSES live better everywhere than they
used TO do, and perhaps they pay somewhat
more attention to cleanliness. If all the world
were clean, cholera would soon perish Of mani

does not appear much likelihood that it will

what in England the British public is turning
its attention to foreign affairs. and among the
topics discussed is the relief e1pcuiton 10

against the success of the undertaking. Inc
soldiers cannot allleavcCairo before November
and Gorlon's supplies and ammunition are not
expected to last beyond September /. The route

on account of the changes in the depth OF the
water. The river is highest about Sep'eline'

LOGAN'S WELCOME.

General Logan, the Republican candidate for
the Wee PRESIDENCY, has been met in bis trip
through New orl with remarkable enthusiasm.
AZ almost every station great numbers Of peO-
pie have appeared to greet him. His brief,
but sensible remarks, have been received with
hearty satisfaction, and have produced
most favorable impression, and
the enthusiasm manifested for the
Republican cause and its candidates has been
such as has rarely, If ever, been seen in any
previous campaign. This trip of General
Logan through the State has been of personal
service to him, because it has removed in the
minds of many imprC >sions which previously
existed. The General does not put on any airs,
does not profess to be bOOk-wom or
a college professor but he talks intel
ligeEtiy, strongly, sincerely and with a sound
good SENSE which comnends itself to public
appreciation. 1t very rarely happens in these
days that Senator LOGAN addresses an audience
of any character without giving 10 most OF his
hearers new and higher estimation of lis
character and ability.
In marked contrast with the ovation given
Senator Logan, was the welcome, or 40 well
come, which ex-senator Hendricks received, il
passing through the same State. Though he i,

on the Democratic ticket, 10 wei
