CHICAGO. December 22.-There was un-
usual activity i'm the wheat pit for the
greater part Of the session to-day. There
was very little news from the outside re-
ceived. and the business was for the
most part in the way OF liquidation sales
by longs" and coverings by shorts. The
price for May at one time was forced TO
G6iRc.. and IL would appear that there was
y purpose in making market at that
price. At all events, a number OF stop
loss orders were caught on the decline,
and for a while there was great eagerness
10 sell The opening was about ha &c.
lower than yesterday. the prices then be-
coming weak. declining SC, improving
Anne, and closing ssg5lc. under yesterday
for May.
Corn was lower early In the day. but n
trmer feeling developed on covering by
shorts. The opening was easy at i4c. de-
cline. owing 10 the weakness in wheat.
Prices held steady for n time. and then
advanced isWAc., receding some when the
estimates for tomorrow were made pub
lic but ruling steady later. and closing
ut a net loss OF but &c. for the day.
Oats-The only feature in this market
was the covering by shorts. There was a
very good business transacted within a
narrow range S prices. May at the
close was isc. under yesterday.
Provisions ruled strong at the opening,
and they were advanced all around. The
appreciation in values was fairly we'll
maintained throughout the entire session.

cholera patients on board has again
raised the question OF the possibility OF
that dread disease obtaining foothold
amongat us. Fortunately there is very
vigilant inspector service, headed by
DR.. Jenkins, at that point. 1t was the
fashion of the Republican newspapers
during the last presidential cam paign
to berate that gentleman because he is
scn-in-law of Richard Croker, of Tam
many. 1t is now universally admitted.
however, that DR.. Jenkins is highly
capable and efficient official. The people
OF the United States care nothing for DR..
Jenkins or Mr.. Croker, or the relations
between them, but they are greatly in
terested in knowing that al the point
where cholera is most likely to effect a
Judgement, if at all, it shall be met and
vanquished. Two undou 5ted cases OF
the disease have been sent from the
KAramania to Swinburne island, where
they are safely isolated. In vessel

have been subject to the ccntagion, 1t 10
impossible to predict what may happen.
Enough that we know that 1t would be
an inexcusable folly to allow the United
States to be desolated with this fell
scourge simply to accommodate the Of
fete monarchies OF Europe. n has been
sufficiently disclosed that cholera infests
the Mediterranean countries OF Europe
to an extent to justify us in establishing
q rigid quarantine for the balance OF the
summer. The consuls Of the United
States in Italy and the other injected
countries should be simply authorized to
inform the steamship companies OF the
immigrant clsss that the hordes OF
persons from infected countries which
they are bringing over will be
sent back. AS these steamship COM
panies are run for profit they will take
the hint very quickly. As for all other
passengers, a system of rigid inspec.
tion and quarantine will suffice.
The reviews have OF late been full OF
articles on cholera, its causes, pa
thology, etc. We notice that in every
article that has come under our obser-
walton the great prevsntives have been
good water and cleanliness. Or, rather,
we should have said that good water
and cleanliness are about absolute
guarantees of immunity. This good
water is obtained by boiling or dis
tilling--the latter, of course, too expen-
sive progress for an ordinary family.
The water of the Los Angeles river has
been very good for some years past, but
those who are of an extra cautious tenn
perament cen easily put it in kettle
over hot fire and wait till they see the
steam squirt out. Cooled, and treated to
little lemon juice, it is cholera defy
ing and exceedingly wholesome on all
grounds.
The HERALD does not wish to be un-
derstood as being an alarmist as to
cholera. For our part, we consider the
climate and other surroundings of the
City of the Angels such as to almost
guarantee us an immunity from this
scourge. But it does no harm to cast
an oblique eye on the matter, and it
don't involve much labor to boil the
water used for domestic purposes. Even
drinking hot water has become tash-
ionable fad which is said to possess
some mysterious virtues.
