Abeat the cholera.
The Secretary Of State has received
from Consul Mason a long report IN
the cholera epidemic now prevailing at
ioulon and Marseillea. Ii SAWS, in
part 4: Both Marseilles and Toulou
Suffered terribly IL the cholera epidemic
Of 1865. During the 10 wears which have
elapsed since then. Marseilles has been
10 several important respects almost re-
built. Her pavemen,s, her sewerage
system, her water supply, and her meth
cd of cleansing streets and inspecting
and regulating the markets, her quar-
anime regulations and her hospital IA
cilities are al! probably unsurpassed ia
excellence By those of any European or
American city. The old quarters of the
city, ancient Marseilles, which was
scourged 80 sharply by the plague in
former centuries, has been pierced with
broad avenues. Streams Of pure water
flow down the cutters of the narrow
streets and al eys, and the pavements of
the principal thorou2hfares are washed
and swept with q care and Frequency
which leaves moi hing To be desired. As
there il no tide to maintain, the circa
lation of Sea water through the enclosed
parts is inevitable. aud the result Is that
the latter grows foul and pestilent.
The same conditions, unmitieated by
equally vigorous sanitary measures.
prevail at Toulon, and II is thought that
II was the dredging of disused dock
there during the months of April and
May which developed the seeds OF
the present epidemic. In spite of
this. number of deaths occurred
in the cleanest and handsomest per-
tious of Marseilles. The attack of
cholera this year Is far more vigorous
and fatal than In the great epid mic of
10 years ago, and present indications
point to a summer of gloom and suffer

settles. All that energy and liberality
could perform. all that sanitary science
could suggest, has been done, but the
pestilsnce is here and deties restraint.
The present situation may be sum-
married. ~ follows: The epidemic which
now prevails at Marseilies and ioulon
II Asiatio, imported beyond all reason-
able doubt from Saigon, China, by the
French transport Sarthio to the port of
Toulon. At first the disease was of the
type medically classified as benign"
but its malignIty has since increased by
its further diffusion and development
under the influence of the hot weather.
In compliance with instructions from
the department, this consulate has
asoertained from officials that no emf
grants have recently left other IoulOn
or Marseilles by sea for the United
States. IL should be added. however,
that few emlgrants for American ports
ever embark here, az steamers leaving
Marseilles usually touch At one or more
Mediterranean So tlons before leaving
their final point of departure, and emf
Grants usually 90 to this ultimate port
Of departure g. embark for the United
States. IL Is therefore respectfully sug-
oested that all vessels bringing eml
grants or baggage To tue United States
from Bordeaux. Havre, La Rochelle. or
any other French port not yet declared
infected should be su iect Il on their
arrival TO most careful saaltATy reRula

refused at this consulate To all vessels
