An Expert on Cholera.

Dir. A. J. A. Arbeely, n noted Syrian
physician and an expert on cholera,
gives the following;
MY directions for warding off the
disease were: Have everything around
you clean; fumigate your clothing in
sulphur and camphor; change yonr
clothing at least twice day; 90 to
bed early-by o'clock; eat chiefly of
well done roast beef and no vegetables;
when you get up in the morning sponge
the body all over with mixture of sui
phurous acid, alcohol and uarboliG acid
diluted in water | never knew anyone
who followed these directions implicitly
that took the disease.
"My observation was that the bulk OF
people were attacked in the early morn
ing hours about 3 or o'clock. The first
promotion was n growing in the bowels,
followed in quick succession by warn
ing diarrh@a, sgriping, sudden muscular
weakness, u rouring sound, as of waves,
in the ears, n desire but inability to vom.
it, the breath turning cold, and the sur
face of the body frequently assuming n
purplish tint. Following these symp.
tions were Intense purging and vomiting,
and insulferable burning in the stomach,
II thirst for water that won't stay on the
stomach; the pulse rapidly falls, the
breath grows hard, the urine stop, the
face is pale and deathly and the voice is
husky aud inarticulate. The mean tenn
pernture of the body goes down t1 10
When the case is well developed the
patients body has a peculiarly horrible
l. - al
GAS to treatment | tried varioue meth
ods, but this prescription found most
eiiicacious: Tncture of opium, spirits
camphor, tincturei cardiamOni, tincture
of rhubarb and oil of pepermint; mix
ture, one-half drachm of opium to two
thirds OF other Ingredients, and admin
lister in doses every hour, from 3 to 10
drops, according to age of patient and
stage of disease. In cases where the
cramps were particularly violent have
found cholera and external rubbing quite
successful. DIR. Koch's theory as to
oxygen is also good. The theory must
be good for the reason that in cases of
cholera the blood fails to oxidize, and
therefore the introduction of oxygen into
the system must be beneficial
''The disease lasts all the way from 20
minutes to three weeks. One day in
Beyrout n Young man came in great
hurry for me to go aud see friend that
had taken cholera. While talking to
me, the young man was suddenly seized
with gripings and was dead in % min
utes. lie had been eating cucumbers
and eggplant. In nearly all the cases in
Beyrout the patients had eaten vegeta-
bles, chiefly egg.plants, which are quite

Anecdote of Washington Irving.

Many years ago--in fact, back in the
thirties---Dr. Grant OF Enfield, whose
reputation as ply ician in Connecticut
is still in memory of the first rank after
years OF reti ement from practice, was
travelling in South Carolina, his native
State, going by stage from Savannah to
Augusta. AT certain stopping place
it was found that there were more pas
sengers than the stage would carry, and
an extra was ordered for the accommo-
dation of live passengers. These | as
sengers were John Forsyth of Georgia;
John Branch, Postmaster General;
George McDuflie of South Carolina; DIR.
Grant; and an unknown gentleman.
The party soon became talkative, and
by degrees all knew who each one was,
with the exception of the silent stranger.
As the stnge creaked along, the atten
ton of DIR. Grant, who was lad at
that date, was attracted by little dog
following the stage which reminded him
of one described by Washington Irving
in Astoria, which he had just been
reading. He was laughing quietly to
himself, when one OF the gentlemen
insisted that he should tell ths cause of
his amusement, that they might join in
the fun. DIR. Grant said, that little
dog reminds me OF Washington lrving's
dog, whose skin was so tight that it
drew up his hind legs.
This led to q talk about Irving, in
which all Joined except the unknown
man. One of the gentlemen then ap-
pealed to him, and asked him il lie did
not think that Irving was one of our
wittiest and most delightful writer's.
The person appealed to replied that he
could not say that he did. The gentle.
men all expressed their aslonishment,
and one of them persisted in demand
ing why he.did not agree with the others
in their admiration of the favorite
author.
"Have you ever read any OF his
works." they asked.
Eyes" was the reply.
swell, don't you think the sketch
Book one of the most beautiful spec.
mems of English which our country has
produced!"
"Well, no, he replied; 81 cannot say
that see anything remarkable in it.
"Well," said the other, "then you
must be Washington Irving himself,
for no one else could resist the humor
and pathos of bis pen"
The unknown man colored to the
very roots of his hair, but made no
reply, and his tormentor continued:
"Come. tell us the truth; are you not
Washington Irving himself?'
The poor man at last blushingly con-
fessed that he was, and then followed a
general introducing and handshaking,
and a delightful and never-to eforgot-
ten stage-ride.

Ben Butler on a summers day,


Ben Butler on summers day,
Stood in convention making hay;
The hay was sweet and the hay was dry,
But it wasn't as cooked as old Ben's eye,
For old Ben saw on a gelding gay
Judge Nomination ride that way.
When the Judge saw Ben in the hay at
work,
He stopped his horse with a sudden
jerk,
And he rolled his eyes on the winsome
face,
And the bHxom form and the airy grace
Aud the wealth of cheek and the mesh
of hair,
OF sweet Ben Butler lurking there.
"0h, sighed the Judge, "that the fate
were mine,
To wed with creature 50 divine
With Ben for mate my life would
seem
Like a poets song or an artists dream;
But when they heard of my material
pick
How like a steer my folks would kickp'
SO fearful of what his folks might say,
Judge Nomination rode away,
Aud left Ben Butler standing there
With her wealth Of cheek and her mesh
of hair;
And of all the sad words of tongue OF
pen
The saddest are these-"He wouldn' t
