President Georgia Medical Society: hi 9m:—As a precautionary measure it the occurrence of Asiatic cholera in our midst, I would respectfully invite the suggestions of the Georgia Medical Society as tOrfbe proper steps to be taken to prevent the spread of the disease, should it arise, giving me your views as to its incipient sym- toms, the proper cause to be pursued on the appearance of these symptoms until a physi cian can be called in, together with the gene ral precautions to be observed, as regards cleanliness, diet, etc., which, jin your jndg- mant, frill most effectually prevent the intro duction and spread of the scourge. I should be glad to receive from yon, in detail, such atidtl information as will tend to the pre servation of the public health in the contin gency above alluded to, in order that the suggestions given may be published for the benefit of the community. Very respectfully, Your obedient servant, Edward C. Anderson, Mayor. The above communication was received, and a committee appointed by. the Georgia Medial Society to respond to the judicious and well timfiti inquiries «f Bit Honor JSl)~ ward C. 'Anderson, Mayor of the city of Sa vannah. We, your committee, beg to submit for your consideration the following report: In making these inquiries, the Mayor was evi dently actuated by the deep interest he felt in the welfare of the community, and in the prosperity of our city. Tge profession of medicine is universally considered to be peculiarly humanitarian. From this point of view, and in dependent of other considerations, medical men are as. moraly hound to prevent, as to relieve dis ease and suffering, whenever either is in their power. We therefore cheerfully respond to the inquiries of the Mayor. The first question which naturally presents itsplf iB^Can cholera be prevented from visit ing a locality £ Before answering this intsr- j#ght'9fy, its 1^-hedessary, first,' to admit our nee the essential character of the ibolara; and, eeoouijly^tp ibfeAlleories bstdits m*- gin and spread.

Many of the latter are no w in bad order and of fensive Amore thorough policingis required.

Whitewash should be freely used on all premises, as it is a most valuable disin fectant. • , - 3 - Diet.—It is generally conceded that impru dence in diet is more provocative of cheiera than any other disease which .may become epieemic. We therefore urged that upon a threatened or existing epidemic bt choferir, that plain, easily digested food, should be used, and taken-At- legtllnr hours, and rar moderation. Excessive indulgence is injuri ous, even should the food be of the proper kind. No great change should be made in the habits of Individuals.. A sudden reform or change from accustomed inodes of living is detrimental. Injurious .habits should be regulated before! itim bhi&ra mfiktliui up- pearance. Are fniiti and vegetables injurious, or should they be excluded as artictei of diet, during the prevalence of cholera? We an swer no. There .are, however, some excep tions under each head. Fruits well matured iB ,Hasson, and eaten in moderation, fiifth proper regard to time of day, are beneficial rather than injurious, in a warm climate. If too ripe or not matured, may prove injurious. Melons should be avoided, as at this season ot the year, they have de teriorated. Figs, peaches, and pears may be used in moderation and with discretion, when fresh and well ripe. During the prevalence of cholera, West India fruits are injurious They are plucked before matured, aud are expected to ripen on the voyage, or after arriving at our ports. Vegetables, like fruit, may be eaten with out injury if they are fresh, in season, well cookdd, and temperance in their use ob served. Alcoholic drinks, like fruits anil vegeta bles, should not be used except with caution Tha danger is not in their use, but iheir abute. In short, in reference to fruits, veg etable^ aud alcoholic drinks, we insist upon .CautiM as to qnautily, quality, and the time df-eating and drinking. In addiLion to the above preventive measures, *we would sug 1 gest that exposure to viclsitudeS 6t Weather without corresponding change .of clothing, fe currents ol air when in perspiration, and night air, are detrimental, and should be avoided. The rule for retiring early should be observed, if practicable, during tbe prev alence of cholera. Excessive fatigue slreuld be avoided. Loatly, it is unnecessary as impossible, to .give any specific treatment for cholera. Tbe stages of-the disease are varied, and tbe treatment must necessarily be the j same. The individual case presents its own' sigD board. We can however say this much, that cholera can be controlled with compar ative ease, if treated in the early stage. Should cholera visit a locality epidemically, every member of tbe community should not only observe tbe precautions above obu- merated, but check at once aqy tendency to looseness of the bowels.

They adjourped to meet again, and a proclamation was issued by the President pro. tem. convenining die Convention to meet on the 90th of July last, and di- xecUng. his xExseBency tko Governor of the State to issue writs _ of } election to. flU vacancies. So far the whdte matter was looked upon as a harmless expen- msnt, though mischief was intended, the people being confident that Che GotatBSS moaid not condescend to .notice .this pqaclfnaHon,jiiid that in^caae the Gon- ventfon Should comifllt shy act of interference, he wo old at ouce have it dispersed. Unfortunately, how ever. after a lapse of nsiriy a month, the Governor issued writs of election to fill up fifty-one vacancies in that body. This document, to which tbe Secretory of State re fused to .give his tftteptftiun under the semi of the St it|e, fi faaaid under the attestation of the private secre- Jltfr pjr&e Governor. The people of die State beoame “alarmfea when, ne.-donbt couid ha entertained as to the fact that these Chin Magistrate- had given willing aid aud assistance to subvert the government, the preservation of which was especially entrusted to his keeping. i On Friday* the 27th of July, a large meeting was heldiu the hall of the House of Representatives, pro fessedly for the advocacy of universal suffrage, hut in reality to ro-organtze fbr the meeting of the Conven tion on the J4pi*toy following. The object of the meeting was to ^xcitc the passions and prejudices of tbe cotored population, so as to make them the vic tims of a riot, toy urging them headlong into a con flict with the Bt^te and municipal authorities. On the other hand, we are determined to prevent riot and bloodshed by pursuing such a course as would baffle tbuasfbriona. calculations of those agita tors from New Qctoftu#-. Our remedy t ,aufl the only remedy, must be by re course to tbe Usual process of law, and even then to proceed in such manner as to fasten upon them the responsibilities of all collision whatever. Tbe case was submitted.to the grand jury by the Attoruey-Gen- eral, and in the meanthfae the Lientenaut-Governor and the Mayov called upon General Baird and ascer tained whether, if a warrant, issued upon a regular in dictment, were placed in the hands of the sheriff for the arrest.of the members of the convention, the mill- . tory would interfere. The answer was that the sheriff ; sell woqld teiuy?t«|ud, and that the convention, meetiug peaceably, could not be interfered with by the office^ of the law. It is proper here to state that the Mayor had pre viously addressed a note to General Baird, inquiring whether lie would be interfered with by the military fxi case he would proceed to disperse the convention as au onlawlalaseemblage. The answer to this coin- municatidh was that the meeting of the convention being peaceable, could not be suppressed by the Mayor, and that the military authorities would pre vent the interference of the civil authorities. It was suggested by the Lieutenant-Governor that the city authorities under these circumstauces did not intend to interfere to prevent the meeting of the convention. But he proposed that in cose a warrant of arrest were placed in the bauds of the sheriff, the latter, before attempting to execute it, would call on the General, who thereupon would endorse his objections, and the matter would at once be submitted to the Prcsideut. This arrangement was satisfactory to both parties. On the pame day, the Attorney-General and the Lieu- t^ant-Governor telegraphed to the President, to as certain whether tbe process 04 the conn to arrest tho members of the convention could be thwarted by the military. The answer was expected to sustain the court. , ... On Sunday, the 29tb, the State and municipal au thorities called upon the President to advise the peo ple as to the proper conduct to be held the next day so as to avoid all collision aud riot; aud the Mayor issued his proclamation to the same effect. The press of the city, with the exception of the Radical organ, gave wise and salutary counsels to the people, in viting all good citizens to avoid congregating about the capitol and to demean themselves with prudence and discretion. On the morning of the 30th the Lieutenant Governor called upon Gen. Baird to communicate to him the President’s dispatch, aud also inquired of the General if he would not have sorile troops in the vicinity of the hall to preserve peace and good order. General Baird answered that application hod been made by tbe members of the Convention. The suggestion was then made that to have too large a p jlice force on the spot might be construed as meant to overawe the members, aud inasmuch as the civil authorities did not intend interfering with the Convention until instructions were received from the President, as above agreed upon, it was proper to have troops to co-operate with a small police force to preserve peace aud to prevent all possible attempts to bring about a coltttion. This suggestion met the ap proval of the General, who then stated that he would immediately give orders to have the troops m readi ness.' Before the end of tbe interview it was again agreed upon between General Baird and the Lieuten ant-Governor that whatever warrant of arrest might be placed in the hands of the sheriff would be sub- mitted to him before any attempt to have it executed should b>e made, and that upon the endorsement of tbe general’s objections the matter \yould he referred to the President. The Mayor being informed of this arrangement, sent bat a small police force to the rlemtty of the ball, and the troops that were Id act in conjunction with the police were eagerly expected. At noon, information having reached tbe Lieutenant Governor that in tbe third district there, waa a com mencement pf effervescence, and that a large number of negroes were coming towards Canal street from Above and below, 'be immediately sent a dispatch to the general oo**sying this intelligence, and urging that troopssbe senf, without delay. About oaie hour afterwards the riot broke out, end ing in the dispersion of the convention and tbe cap ture of the rioters, including several members of this body. It is not our purpose to argue the qtestion of facts as 4o the actual commencement of the collision, and fix precisely tbs mode and manner and where it start*}. We wiU, however, remark that the collision was brought about by the armed mob snsUining the convention, ffafltoa it today that tbe etvtl tuthoritisa took aU the precaatams possible to prevent tbe out break ; that they applied during three days previous to have the tfiHiftlfy to preserve order at the place where the convention was to meet; that the authori ties* State and municipal, came to an understanding to net in concert witti-thh tailitoff far that purpose*, that the cifazewi. m> more than the police contem plated preventing the convention from holding their meetiug in'peace mid adjourning and dispersing un molested; and that the warrant for their anest would have been aqfeinitMdto this military, aa agreed upon, although the President’s dispatch to the lieutenant Governor and the subsequent one to the Attorney General, was imperative, that the military must not thwFXt the convention. The military authorities had been for <m«s days previous to the Mot in constant unicatton with the Attorney General and the. A Pew Words to tike Wespe^fcofiie CbidtWffl People.

It was recently brought from Arenta WenA* Literally Roasted Alive la tight or Bar Family aad Fil»a<»: Tbe New Philadelphia (Ohio) Democrat says: One of tbe most painful aud heart rending casuilties that it baa ever been our lot to record, occurred on Friday afternoon, 27th uit., between tbe hours of three aud four q’clock, p. m. Mrs. Stambaugb, wife of David W. Stambaugh, Esq-, of this town, was endeavoring to kindle & fire to: her,cook ing stove, aud, it failing to ignite as speedily as she desired, took a can containing about a quart or more of coal oil, and poured some of it upon the coals. It took fire -and imme diately communicated itself to (be can, which, burst, and instantly enveloped Mrs. Stam baugh in a sheet ot flame. She immediately ran out of tbe house to that of a relative on an adjoining lot, several rods distant. Her friend, seeing fesr. sad plight, made immedi ate efforts to subdue tbe flames by injuring on water. Other neighbors, ~ hearing her piteous cries, soon made their appearance, and procuring water from the'Cistern tcloM by, pal out the fire, but not UQtu, S’s*.. S. was burned almost to a crisp. Medical aid was promptly at hand, but was of no avail except to alleviate the excruciating pain, in which she lingered for six or eight boors, when death kindly came and pat an end to her sufferings. The heart sickens to attempt ing a recital of the sad event. Those who saw her enveloped in that winding sheet of flame say that it made an impression npoa them which time can hardly serve to efface. Mr. S. is left with a family of two boys to mourn the loss of her who of all was most dear to the family circle. Her remains were interred on Sunday in the New Philadelphia cemetery, attended by tbe largest concourse of our citizens that we hare ever seen at a funeral. Mrs. S. was universally esteemed by her neighbors aud friends for her many good qualities, and we deeply sympathize, in common with the whole community, with the family in their afflictive bereavement. It now leaks out that very many persons are fn tbe habit of using coal oil to kindle fires with. We think this should serve as a warning to them to be cautious to the nse of that article. , DIABOLICAL. OtWttCE. ■ ! L White Woman la Forced to Yield to the hast of a Negro Monster—Four White Men hold Her while he Vlolntea Her Person. One of the most atrocious outrages that we ever heard of was perpetrated on the per son of a white woman at the loyal and holy city of Wabash, Indiana, last week. A party of loyal yoang men, of the “F. F.’s,” de coyed a woman into the river bottom, aad, while they had her there threw her down, stripped her, and holding her by her arms and legs, induced a negro to ravish hw. The tears, entreaties and protestations of the poor Woman had no effect upoh the ttitesa who held her. She protested against having emt- nal intercourse with the negro, and screamed itod straggled to free herself from the fiends, who held her until nature was exlntoXted. The morning following the outrage, rite sought legal advice; but as the crime waste hideous, and the amalgamationists who per petrated it of the “first families,” (tile ne gro is of the family of Colonel Cogswell?) she was told that she could not if* ties sufficiently to' make a*cai of four hundred and fifty dollars was rawed for her, and she sent otjl'Ot ittie mirooet anxiety exista'to Kedp tfle iffitif'qtitet, :tenaoWJovernor with a view to preveat the im- chiefs among ’em takto’ notes, and faith he’ll prent’em.” We have the names of She te the dau mer—a Repub ;hter of a Wabash county far- ican.—Huntington Democrat.
