To the Editor 81 The Ev-s.ing star.
Now that the dreaded cholera has secured
fcothold in this country. despite every effort "a
check its introduction. IL becomes the dutv ~
all to do everything in their power 10 lessen the
ravages of the fell disease BY a faithful ob-ery-
ance Of the sanitary regulations which have
been or may be adopted and TO use such RENE
dies as will not only aterially check lite spread
but curtaii the fatality, not little, but almost
entirely.
What am about 20 tell Won NAV. in some
measure. tend TO that result IL il should han
pen-whlch God forbid-that this disease, so
pregnant with fear and horror shall invade our
beautiful city. am confident that the simple
remedy propose will, in almost every case,
prove efficacious.
In February, 1862. I was one OF a partv of
TWENTY-FIVE who sailed out Of Liverpool bound
for Calcutta on a business trip Before leaving
England an aunt asked me 10 carry with me
what she claimed an infallible specific in
case Of an attack from cholera. Ny medicine
chest was meager; ii consisted Of a small box
of loaf sugar and four-ounce vial OF tincturs
OF camphor. We unfortunately chose q time
for our trip when cholera was az its worst in
the east Many of YOUR readers no doubt re-
member reading of the awful ravages il made
throughout India that year. We were right IN
Its midst without 4 solitary warning Of the ter
rible risk We were about to run. In less than
six weeks from the time landed was the
only one Of our party remaining Cholera had
claimed the Others. and attribute NV being
alive today TO tell this story solely and entirely
to the fact that followed the directions given
me for the ice Of camphor in of an attack
When the fell symptoms first manifested them
selves remembered the remedy given me be-
fore leaving England, with but very
little faith in its powers I made up my
mind, however, to give it a trial The attack
came on about O'Clock in the morning. I
went to bed at once. taking the sugar aud cam
phor along. NV plan TO pour two or three
drops on small piece Of sugar. allowing il to
dissolve slowly in my mouth This I repeated
every ten minutes up tillnoon. l then fell into
q profound Precipitation and was fast
asleep. When awoke ! felt decidedly relieved,
and from that time forward steaoily improved.
At the end OF two days I wss well, but very
weak. and my almost miraculous cure I claim
was solely due to the proper and persistent use
Of camphor. Since then. YOU may well sup
pose. in all the great family OF drugs camphor
has been my dearest friend. / would most
earnestly urge on every one to whose notice this
may come TO take the precaution Of having
bottle Of it on their shelf for use in case of o
visitation from this dread disease The cam
phor alone will nine cases in ten effect a cure.
Yours, respectfully,

An interesting ceremony tosk place Thursday
morning on University Hill, opposite Howard

the bishop OF Maryland OF King Hall. a train

Church for young colored men who desire TO
the Hon. John A. King, for many years a we'll
known winter resident Of this city, who has
been one of its most active promoters. The
governing board consists Of Bishop Paret, Rev.
Drs. Douglass and Mckim. Mr.. John A. King
and Mr.. Henry Z. Pellew.
The hall occupies a fine position overlooking
the city and 10 surrounded by spacious grounds,
affording ample room fur future buildags-
Everything looked very bright and cheerful in
the sunshine, and one went through the
house, from the pleasant well-furnished bed
rooms 10 the library. the students common
room and the pretty chapel, fragrant with sow-
ers and with seats for fifty worshipers. one felt
that the Episcopal Church was prepared 90
make a vigorous and serious effort 70 send we'll
equipped ministers and teachers Of their Own
race 10 the colored people.
The service was enlivened by music and Bishop
Paret's excellent address to the hand of stu
dents, gathered from all parts Of the country,
was listened to by them with marked interest
and attention. They looked bright and caps-

rather to reach the vicinity OF the east Green
land coast to the north of Cape Bismarck.
There is no doubt the further north you go the
better chances you would have of travelling over
good snow"
Mr.. Peary answered: II am not after the
north pole, but do hope TO attain the northern
eXtremity'of Greenland. or in case your views
a. TO the northerlv extension OF the Greenland
inland ice are correct to trace the northern Dor
der of the ice to the east coast above Cape Bis
marck."
JUST WHAT PEARY DID Do
The latter is just what Lieut. Peary did do.
and the remarks in his dispatch. ''Greenland
ice caps end south of Victoria inlet" confirm
in a remarkable manner Greely's theories in
regard to the interior ice fields.

west coast Greely's PARTY reached a point
one degree further north than Peary. but from
a geographical point of view the results of the
latter are more important, inssmuch they
show n much sharper sou.heasterly trend to the
coast than was generally thought to be the case.
Pear has aisO thoroughly demonstrated the
safety and practicabiiity of his plan OF crossing
the high Interior plains of Greenland, instead
OF skir-iEg the coast line.
rE OUTLINED HIS PROPOSED ROUTE.
Before leaving for his trip Lieut. Peary gave
n most interesting lecture in this city. under
the auspices Of The Geographic Society. of
which he j. n member and the proposed route
which he laid down at shat time has been fol-
bowed with rather remarkable accuracy. From
Victoria inlet he brsnched OF to the eastward.
with the result that after piercing the coast
range % noun aims he reached the eastern
coast at 80 degrees north latitude and 81 de
gree- west lougituds. This happy even: took
place on July 4. and in honor of the day the
bay at This point was called Independence bay
To show the accuracy with which the general
plans were carried out by Peary and also how
close Gen Greely forecasted the result of the
expedition can be gathered from the following
correspondence which took place between the
two before the party left Gen. Greedy wrote:
Il have no Goubt that you viii be able to make
n remarkable journey on the inland ice. l have
no faith. however. in your being able TO go be-
yond either Sterard Osborn ford. or possibly
Victoria o. NOrdcnskioId inlet. There is the
strongest possible circums!an;ial evidence to
prove tina: of these tOrds separates the
northern part Of Greenland, and you viii look
in vain In any OF the reports OF arctic travellers
for Indications OF the inland ice to the north
ward OF .Ec cighty-first degree. Doubtless the
ice does extend further north in the interior Of
Greenland. and in such case you viii reach the
northern extremity of i, and doubtless be able
