Onions Arc a ChoIera.fuge.

During the last epidemic Of cholera in
England it puzzled the sanitary inspect
ors of a northern town to understand
why the inhabitants of one cottage in a
certain row were not affected by the dis
ease which was raging among their neigh.
bors. Finally it became noticed that a
net of onions was suspended in the for
tunate house, and on examination these
were all found to be diseased. It is also
related that during a former outbreak Of
infectious fever in Somers Town and st.
Giles's, the French priests, who con-
stantly used garlic in ali their dishes,
visited the worst cases in the dirtiest
novels with ~impunity, while the English
clergy who were similarly engaged, but
who did not eat onions in like fashion,
caught the infection in many instances,
and fell victims to the disease. Raw
onions contain an acrid volatile oil, sui
phur, phosphorus, alkaline earthly salts,
starch and free, uncrystallized sugar.
The fresh juice is colorless, but by ex.
posture to the air becomes red.-London

No wind there is that either pipes or
means;
The fields are cold and still; the sky
Is covered with a blue-gray sheet
OF motionless cloud; and at my feet
The river. curing softly by,
Whispers and dimples round it's quiet gray
stones.
Along the chill green slope that dips and
heayes
The road runs rough and silent, lined
With plum trees. misty and b~lue-gray,
And poplars pallid as the day,
In masses spectral, underlined,
Pale greenish stems half hid in dry gray
leaves.
And on beside the rivers sober edge
A long fresh field lies back. Beyond,
Low thickets gray and reddish stand,
Stroked white with birch; and near at
hand,
Over a little s~teei-snooth pond,
Hang multitudes Of thin and whitening
sedge. !.
Across a waste and solitary rise
A pIowman urges his dull team,
A stopped gray figure with prone brow
That plunges bedding to the plow
With strong, uneven steps. The stream
Rings and re, echoes with his furious cries.
Sometimes Che lowing of a cow, long,
drawn,
Comes from far off; and crows in strings
Pass on the upper ~silences.
A flock of small gray goldfnches,
Flown down with silvery twitterings,
Rustic among the birch cones and are gone.

All motions that nave faintast birth,
