THE CHOLEnA IN EUROPE.

While it is too soon to conclude that
there is no further danger Of cholera in
an epidemic form in this country during
the present Summer, the indications are
that the disease will be confined to Eu.
rope. In 1884 the first outbreak was at
Toulon, France, in the beginning OF
April. In July it appeared at Naples,
and soon spread to Spain. In that year
there were 5000 deaths in France and
10000 in Italy. In 1885 the cholera ap-
peared in Spain as early as January, was
carried to France a week later, and to
Italy in August. The deaths were
{, 1000 in Spain, 1890 in France, and
l,0l0 in Italy.
The cholera record for the current year
is not so appalling as that Of the two
years preceding. The disease has been
less virulent in character and has not
spread over so wide an extent of terri.
tory. France has been practically ex-
empt thus far, while in Italy the author
tiles have been able to confne the dis
ease to q few places and the mortality
has greatly lessened compared with the
number of cases reported. In Spain the
ravages thus far have been comparatively
light. In Italy the latest accounts show
q gradual diminution in the number OF
cases, SO that the chances of the disease
spreading to the United States through
France and England become less each
day.

United States that is insulted in the in.
science of the local Mexican authorities,
and that dignity must be upheld. Amer.
leans have far less protection in some
portions of Mexico than other foreigners,
and it is time that such discrimination
should cease. 1t has ever been asserted,
and we have seen no denial. that many
Americans pass themselves off as British
subjects to secure the protection which
England gives to every Englishman

q basis for laying down a few rules re-

her citizens from other nations.

THE EFFECTS OF DROwxING.

A correspondent residing at PENIS
Grove, N. j., asks an exchange for in.
formation as to the process through
which the body of a drowned man must
pass before it will rise and hoas or the
water surface, and how many days the
body will remain at the bottom in such
weather as this? The answer to these
questions may be important, especially
in this, the drowning, season. In hot
weather the process of the development
of gas in q body under water whether
salt or fresh) takes place very rapidly in
all the soft structures, but especially in
the intestines, causing a distention of
the abdomen, and, consequently, an ex.
pulsion Of water from the stomach and
of blood from the heart, while ultimately
the air passages are cleared of any OBJ
struction. The precise chemical process
by which this gas is formed depends, OF
course, somewhat on the contents of the
stomach. though probably carbonic acid
and nitrogen are among the chief pro.
ducts of the gaseous putrefaction going
on. The time required for a drowned
body to float varies greatly. 1t some
well attested cases the body has risen to
the surface within three days, but gen
orally this occurs between the fourth and
ninth days. The process of d%ecomposi'
tion is usually thought to be more rapid
in fresh than in salt water.

In replying to the charge brought by
Mr.. Gibbs that he had appointed his
law partners son a cadet to West Point,
Mr.. Wellborn said that should young
Leake make patriotic, good and
true soldier, Olin Wellborn
would have no cause TO blush
for his previous action. He said that
competitive examinations we're vexa-
tious and not TO be trusted, and that he
had appointed young Leake on account
Of his fitness and not on personal
grounds.
In commencing TO reply to the third
great charge Mr.. Wellborn grew mani
testify excited and asked the permission
OF the audience TO shuck his collar, as II
was warm.
Permission being granted to take Of
that article, and his coat, too, II he
wished II, he obeyed the hint given, and
Commenced his reply In his shirt sleeves,
He pronounced the charge that he was
serving corporations as unqualiaedly and
unreservedly false. Said that he was at
one time In the employ Of the Texas &
Pacific railway, but as soon as
he entered congress ne had re-
signed his railroad position. He
said that monopolies had several
forms, that one was the American tariff,
aud gave an exhaustive view of his
Views on the remcdying Of the evil. He
said that on every occasion he had fought
the giving of subsidies to steamship lines
as another form of monopoly. He then
paid his respects TO national banks as
another branch of the monopoly
family. He said that he mad ever
opposed them, and that I'm his
estimation the present iniquitous system
was the worst that could possibly be de-
yised. He said that he had voted 10 in
crease the capital stock OF the Fort Worth
National bank from the simple fact that
the system was unavoldably fastened
upon us, and that IL was best TO get along
peaceably with what we had until we
could obtain bettor system.
He then said that he mad ever commended
that state legislation was the correct way
to deal with the labor troubles, and called
upon MIR. Gibbs 10 say why he had not
bill to that end.
He then read from Mr.. Gibbs record
TO the effect that while that gentleman
was In the senate he had attempted
to restrict corporations to railroad and
telegraph companies.
He then closed by declaring that II he
was defeated he could look back with
pride and think that he had been sacri-
feed because he had attempted to follow
the teachings of jefferson and of Jackson,
and could say, al have kept the faith.n
He sat down amidst laundering APP
plause.
Judge Beckham followed in short
talk, after which Mr.. Gibbs talked anoth-
er halthour In answer to Mr.. Wellborn
he merely reiterated his charges, and
made no attempt to refute any Of Mr.
dpnials
