Grover Cleveland took possession
he issued an order to admit any
body at once who wished to see
him. And up to the present time
he has been quite able himself to
prevent this return to republican
simplicity from being abused. His
habits are indicative of his dislike
OF ostentation and official parade,
and OF his methodical and indus
trial training. He walks from the
Executive mansion every morning
at nine O'Clock to tho Capitol, aud
goes straight to work. At 100 he
walks back to his lunch, which

until SIX, when he goes to dinner
He is back at s and generally stays
until IL or II; He keeps no horses
or extra servants. and has not been
known to ride since he has been in
Albany, except for an occasional
pleasure iaunt. The amount of
work thus accomplished, as his pri-

enormous.

CHOLERA CURES.

As the Asiatic cholera has mad,
its appearance in portions o
France, with very fatal results, an,
is spreading to an alarming extent
with possibility of its ultimatel,
reaching this country. we publish
the following remedies, both o
which have been fully tried and ar,
recommended by high medica
authorities:
THE Sun CHOLERA MIXTURE,
New Orleans Picayune.]
More than forty years ago, when
1t was found that prevention fol
the Asiatic cholera was easier than
cure, the learned doctors Of both
hemispheres drew up a prescrip-
tion, which was published flor
working people, in the New York
Sun, and took the name of "the
sun cholera mixture" Our con-
temporary never lent its name to a
better article. We have seen it in
constant use for nearly two score
years, and found it to be the best
remedy for looseness of the bowels
ever yet devised. 1t is to be COM
mended for several reasons. It is
not to be mixed with liquor, and
therefore will not be used as an al
beverage; its ingredients
are we'll known among all the com
mon people, and it will have no
to combat; each of the
materials is in equal proportion to
the others, and may therefore be
compounded without professional
skill; and, as the dose is so very
small, it may be carried in Il tiny
llai IN the walstcoat pocket, and
% always at hand. 1t is:
Take equal parts ti,cture of
opium, red pepper, rhubarb, pep
,ermint and camphor. and mix
hem for use.
In case of diarrlIea, take a dose
u ten to twenty drops in three or
our teaspooniuls of water. Ne one
gho has this by him, and takes it
q time, Will ever have the cholera
Ne commend it TO our We.,tern
fiends, and hope that the recipe
I'LL be widely published. Even
'hen no cholera is anticipated, it
an excellent remedy for ordinary |
nmner complaint. This remedy /.
