I the disease readily took on the t-liaraolor of an

The ultra marine Brmmnians published a
i manifesto in which they declare.l that thu most
| dangerous character and circumstance of the
disease, “ was the total want of bilo and acrid j
matters in tlio stomach and intestines, and ill it
the principal end should be to reanimate tho
languishing vital po.veis, to re-establish the ('ir
eolation, to prevent the violent spasmodic con
; dilion, to re-establish the action oflho stomitch.”
Gonso iiieully lin y p. escribed uudor lite title ol
proservalimi. and arierwards, as curative means,
a tincturu composed of pimento, opium, cam
phor, and cardamoms, infused iu alcohol. All
tlio inhabitants were provided with this tincture, ,
.decorated with the title of uiUis/iusmoilii', or |
: cigorous supporter, and the n»e which they made ,
of it as a pioventive, should bo set down a-J
mongst tlio principal causes of tlio ravages of
, the epidemic. .When the symptoms of ibis tor- 1
, ribln intl immatiou wore m.iinfosloil, they no

becomes us, tloi’cl'o o, to baveoui- attention se

community look to and wilh j.islieu l" use sui-|i
meat's as may, it possible resist, the scourge
which hna fallen on our brethren iu Asia and a
poilion of Eit-ope.
As cliaii man iif Ibis board, I fee) it incumbent
upon me to givo you a guttural view of Ibo pm
gross of Cholura, tlio opinions enloi taiimd of its
eonlagious o atmospheric diameter, tlm im-a- .
sums u liii-.h tlio city authorities liavo adopt oil, oul
the duties wlddi it becomes us to perform to,
prevent its inlioJiiclion, or to lessen its violence
or fatality. ,
In a communication like the present, minute
details or elaborate argmnetils could not be ex
pected, nor would limy be suitable.
The C'liokira now prevailing, is a very distill.-t
disease from tin; ordinary Cbolora Morbus, ivliidi
oeeasionally atiacks tin; liiimati race ; it is so ills- 1
liuel. as to be regaidud by the best writers on
the subj -el, as mijiio e.iy named. It is a uis- ■
ease, w iiit,-li lias no doubt periodically prevailed
ai East mu nations, ns to the Yellow Fovor among ,
us; ami lias linreUdbre been regarded as an epi- :
| 'lemic i-ociili.il to iboso countries. It has indeed
been ii pound by some medical writers licit it
has before visited Emopc ; but there are no good
grounds for admitting such an opinion.
Tlio Gliolcru now prevailing, appeared at .In*- ;

' ili'-ncn it spreads in eve. y direction "ver iiulia,
and ultimately over a great propoilioa of Asia,,

luges, and armies. In IHTS it reaciiod to liio ,
I I-orders of Eukjj e ; ictnaining in Asia, and retro- j j

i again appealed on the coniines of Europe, ami
j afterwards passed ovci and entered into Utissi i
and Constantino; 10, and lias since been g* initially j
I pro"’ escing and extending. It has been ostiin
uialed, that f mu 1817 to HliO, 0.Mi10.000 of souls I'

Ju relation to the Cholera— by far tho greater

I an oppo timity of observing Ibis disease iu Asia
and Lmope, arc decidedly of opinion, that it is:

They maintain tb it it hafl ptr*sticd Ita ronrse |

For mysedf, after having, to the best of my a- |
biJilica, de!i!»eratidy invcs’igalod this reinject, I
cannot bcli 've that the Cholera has been pro-j
■ dueoil by contagion alone, although Ido not pro- j
tend to say it h is not, in some instance'*, proved j
contagious, ir has been too general and exten
