The Planters in Big Luck.

Fortunately for the Mississippi
river coast planters, money is so
scarce in New Orleans that the com
mission merchants have issued
notices to their numerous customers
not to draw upon them as they can
not honor their drafts. 1t is always
a fortunate thing for the cotton
planters not to be able to borrow
money--if they can get it, they need
it and must have it, and at the end
of the harvest season they wish they
hadn't borrowed it and use up their
crops in paying it back. II they cant
get it they grovl and fret consider
ably but manage to economist and
pull through without it, and at the
end of the season are always ahead
on the years planting venture
The only people in New Orleans
who can to-day receive accommoda>
tons from the banks are those great
houses that don't need them, and
they are taking advantage of the
general constipation in the financial
world by claiming the same exemp-
ton from planters exactions as are
enforced upon their weaker CONNER
cial associates.

On June 2Sth, four deaths by
cholera in Toulou, France, were re-
ported by Cable to Secretary of State
Frelinghuysen, and six deaths from
that disease, up to date,in Marsailles
The weather was very warm in those
cities, and general stampede of the
people took place. Many European
cities are quarantining against the
French ports, and Italy has warned
all countries who send mails to that
Kingdom through France, that they
must use tarred bags. This requisi-
ton includes the United States, as
we send our mails to Italy through
French ports.

NisSisrippi'S Mineral Springs
and ArtcSiai Wells

The possibilities of cholera vlsl-
tation this summer or next and the
certainty that impure water panders
to its rapaeity and is its chief promo
ter, should suggest the propriety to
those who drink from shallow wells
of digging deeper into the bowels Of
the earth in search of the pure, glori-
Gus currents that almost everywhere
in Mississippi ripple through dark,
substeranean channels. Near each
other in many towns you will find
we'll hardly twenty feet deep and
another fully sixty feet in depth;
both furnishing water apparently
pure yet of greatly differing tempera-
ture: The one not greatly cooler
than the air, the other delightfully."-
cold; the one taking in the sipage of
every rain, the other if fed at all, by
surface water receiving it after
altering process equal in its results
to distillation. How many of the
ailments that torment the imprudent
are due to tke shallow wells? How
many of the houses reputed to be I'M
healthy in location owe their bad
names to the shallow sipe holes that
supply their occupants with water?
No State in the Union, not even
Virginia, is more richly endowed with
health giving and preserving mineral
springs and pure artesian fountains
than Mississippi, and in many local.
ties there is little need in summer to
drink water from any other sources;
but we should not rely blindly and
ignorantly upon these founts-we
should have the waters Of all our
mineral springs aud artesian wells
analysed, so that in time of epidemic
we will know Just which to seek and
which to avoid; and we should where
we find waters possessing peculiar
excellence send specimens with ana
lysis to the New Orleans Exposition,
SO that the world may know where to
find bealthful resorts in the heated
season and particularly when cpl
demic threatens.
Aberdeen is dong this in the mat
ter of the numerous artesian wells
that pour their pelucjd streams from
fountains in her public streets and
elsewhere within her bounds, and DIR.
Jones the great New Orleans chemist
has pronounced these waters to be
the purest that have ever come under
his observation. We hope this plan
will be pursued by all other Missis-
sippi towns, and particularly by the
proprietors of the numerous mineral
springs and wells in the State that
appeal to the public for patronage as
health resorts.

Chicago is perhaps exhibiting more
alarm in consequence of the appear
ance of Asiatic cholera in Toulou,
France, than any other American
community, and perhaps this semi
prophetic fright may be good thing
to entertain, for it will result in a
sanitary boom for the great city of
the lakes which, in the opinion of its
health commissioner and its news
papers is in horribly filthy condi
ton. The Inter- Deem commenting
upon the condition Of affairs, and civ.
ing due consideration to the cloud
that is gathering in the eastern sky,
advises its readers that water-impure
water is referred to--is one of the
chief vehicles for the spread of this
deadly disease, and warns them to
''begin at once to accommodate them
selves to doing without any drinking
water whatever. "We suppose that
the advice is to be construed as sug-
costing the substitution of distilled
water, or tea, or coffee, and mere
abstinence from the fluids supplied
from the lakes and wells that answer
to the name of water fos lack of n
better name" in Chicago; bat there
is no doubt and never has been a
doubt but that foul water is one OF
the most fruitful sources and dissent
matters of epidemics. More than once
pestilenee has made its first appear
ance at Mecca and returned from this
resort of the faithful in the blood of
the pilgrims to ravage Asia and
Europe. 1t is notorious that Of all
the waters in the world those are
foulest near the tomb of the prophet
the "holy well'' must be reached
and drank from by every true be-
lever, and its waters never very pure
become perfectly horrible by constant
use, but are drank nevertheless with
avidity by those to whom death is
guarantee of paradise if occurring at
this hottest of Moslem resorts.
