Chrigtiansted, St, Ceeix,
Saturday, lst October 1892.

The favourable news which we have been
lately receiving as to the cholera in Europe
and America, will presumably abate the fright
which has rather extensively pervaded the
West Indian Islands. 1t is OF course a very
serious matter, but We cannot see that much is
gained BY alarm. Sanitary arrangements,
public and private, are doubtless improved
under the pressure, and that is certainly a
gain; but on the other hand there is an
immense expenditure of nerve power that
ought to be reserved for the actual emergency,
If it should arise. But it never may. "Never
cross a bridge before you come to it, says the
old proverb, and we ought all to keep that in
mind Just now. We should also be encouraged
when we see how the scientific men Of Europe,
the leading cholera experts, plunge into the
infected districts for the sake of knowledge.
They are not afraid of the disease. Keep
yourself and your surroundings clean and you
need not fear cholera" that is the gisU of their
teaching. That is what all intelligent people
have to do, and what they must impress on the
many who are less accessible through the or
binary means of conveying knowledge. But
as to frightful imaginings, Danish them. Let
us remember the great teaching, valuable at
all times, but especially SO in a time like
the present: Sufficient unto the day L. the
evil thereof"
