This precautionary action agaiuat cholera (as against many other diseases) is an object for which the Nuisances Removal Acts enable local pro vision to be made. The authorities who haveko ad minister these Acts are in inat^y places the earoe, bat- in uxany other places (chiefly wherever there ave towrf councils, improvement commissioners, or local boards of health) are not the same, as the authorities who have to act uuder the Medical Relief Regulations. The Lords of the Council have no authority to .laaue regulations or orders tor any purposes of this Nui sances Removal Acts. But a vear ago, in anticipation., of the danger which now threatens the country, thfeir* Lordships drew the attention of nuisance authorities,' and of the public generally, to the renewed proMece of Asiatic cholera in Europe, and Bi|ggeatet| the pre cautionary proceedings which, under the circiim- for. It was their Lordships’ hope, that, after this warning, the interval which might elapse before a reappearance of cholera in live districts for the contingency which has now come.

And on the present occasion parts of It pdist spcCiuHy. insisted on. - « * si jf sneCiaHy V*4j Aireh rehnioh to Asiafic elialeipa.'as nowthtektenki^ us, there are two principal daugers against which ex treme and exceptional vigilance ought to be used. First, there is tho danger of drinking water which is in any (efen the slightest) degree tainted by house re fuse or oftier like kinds oTfilth; is where there is out flow, leakage, or filtration, from sewers, house drains, privies, cesspools, foul ditches, or the like, into streams, apriuge, ofr Wells, from which the supply of water is drawn, or into the sub-soil in which the wells are situate; a danger which may exist on a small scale, as at the pump or dip-well of a private house, or on a large scale, as in the sources of supply of public water works. And, secondly, there is the danger of breath-) ing air which is made foul with effluvia from the same sorts of inttiprity* Information as to the high degree in which those two dingers affect the pqhfcQ health in ordinary tlnid.&nd as to the extreme degree of import ance which attaches to them at times when any diar- rhueal disease is epidemic, has now for so inafiy years been set before the public by this department and otherwise that the larger works of drainage and water supply by which the daugers are permanently obvi ated lor large populations, and also the minor structu ral improvements by which separate households are secured agaiust the dangers, ought long ago to have come into universal use. It is to bo feared that, ou a very large scale, this wiser course has not been adopted, and that even yet, in very many instances, temporary security has to be found in measures of a palliative kind. So far as such is the case, attention is most earnestly called to those parts of the general memorandum which relate to the matters in hand. All chjet sources of the one danger may be held in check, as follow's: By immediate thorough removal of every 6ort of hoqse-refqse ant} other filth which is now accu- Hulated.'by preventing future accumulations of tfcA same sqrt,- by attention to all defacts in -haiwa-wains and dints b/ which offensive smells kite ‘let tintd houses, by thorough washing and lime-whiting of un cleanly premises, especially of such as are densely oc cupied, and by disinfection, very frequently employed, in and round about houses, wherever there is lfith- sodden porous earth, wherever anything 'elfce in or under or about tue house tends to make the atmos phere foul. As provision against the other danger, it is essential that immediate and searching examination of sources of water supply should be made in all cases where the source is in any degree open to the sus picion of impurity: examination hotfi of private qnd of public* mi|>fjies;' and where 4>qllatian ; i$ discovered everything pracncible should be done to prevent tin* pollution from continuing, or, if this object cannot be attained, to prevent the water from being drunk.*" Tlie examination of sources of water supply should it course extend to all receptacles of water storage, such as the tanks and reservoirs of public supply, and the butts and cisterns of private houses. ive (never important wjiefe hun*au hual|U is to-be .prqjterved) are supremely important when the spread of cholera is to be prevented is & truth which will beat be under stood when the manner in which cholera spreads is considered. Uappily for mankind, cholera is so little contagious, in the sense in which small-pox and ty phus ore commonly called contagious, that if proper precautions are taken where it is present there is scarcely any *is£ that the disease will spread;;,to pet- aohk'WliO narse^and otherwise closely attdhff np4n> tfie sick. But cholera hag a certain peculiar contagious ness of Us own, now to be explained, which, wfiere sanitary circumstances are bad, can operate with-’ter rible force, and at considerable distance from the sick. It appears to be characteristic of cholera—not only the disease in its developed and alarming form, but equally of the slightest diarrhoea which the epi demic influence can produce, that- all matters which the pationt discharges from, his stomach and bowels are infective ; that the patient’s power of infecting olhef persohS is represented almost or quite exclu sively by those discharges ; that they, however, are comparatively Tjon lnfective at the moment Sfheu they are fiiseharged, fiqt, afterwards- wdfile undergo ing decomposition, acqufro their snuxiwium of infec tive power; that, if they bo cast away without previ- disuifectiou, they imparl theix own.infective excreinefifed matters ‘‘With Ml AJU* U quality to the ex _ inl*gie,4a alth-aedden ikcth - or hi dfcpoi conduits of filth, and to the effluvia which cremefihd fflatteps evolve ; that, if til® infective pia- (erial, by leakage or soakage from drains qr cesspools, or otherwise, gets access, even in the smallest quan tity, directly or through porous soil, to we|ls or Other sources of drinking water, it can infect, in the most {epoqs manner, very large yolqmea of the water; the infective influence of choleraic discharges attaches to whatever bedding, clothing, towels, and like things have been imbued, with them, and repders these things, if not disinfected, capable (as tbe cholera patient himself would be capable, under tho same con ditions) of spreading the disease in plaoes whither they are sent for washing or other purposes; that, in the above described ways, even a single case of dis ease, perhaps of the slightest degree, and perhaps quite unsuspected in its neighborhood, mar, if . jopal pircqmstanccs co-operate, exen - terribly infective power on considerable jees or population. ‘If local circumstances cooperate,* however, is the stated coudition for that, possibility; and it will be obseryed that the essence of the sanitary precautions, wURih fiaye Upen rpp- mended to imp>ance authorities and others is to an- late those ’local circumstances.’ The choleraic infection does not seem able largely to injuroapypop- 'ulation unless a filthy state of things bepre-suppoeed. It u pre-aupposed that the atmosphere or the drink- lug-water of the population is impure with the most loiiiHoiue of impurities; that the infective material has had opportunities of action which decent cleanli ness would not have afforded it; that, in inefficient or ® r other like depositories, it has J”?me to develop its own infective power, and to Sf7 e : r V 1 t ^f r stagnant filth equally infective With It- ?mr w a [ rom ®Dcli loci ofiarecti.in the ![r ’ J ni clioler „ as .

Personal precautions against cholera consist es sentially in avoiding th* nnwtiofe*t»»r«iru!upW*ucyq which have.been described; and where that avoid ance can be secured there need not b* farther thougirt on the subject. Even when cholera seems imminent, thu danger is quite conspicuously one which Ought not to give occasion to panic. Intelligence and cool decision are wanted against it The case is no longer- that of a mysterious pestOSitte ohMing (like the and but half- neasaratdo atfeick, against-which dedmte -yracautiqns _ an be takeu with rth- in two Orders of Council, dated respectively the 2(ith and the 21st of July) direct the appointed local author ities to do. in Omir-respective districts, bo far os ne cessary, certain things, which are chiefly of the na ture ot medical relief. The authorities who have to give effect to those medical relief regulations are as loilows:—First, wiftffn Ae toelropolia, with the excep- tion of the city oftdudok, tlm Bespective Vestries or District Boards of the several parishes or districts; secondly, outside the metropolis, and also in the three Unions of the city of London, the Boards oft P^ues of P*®* centuries) on ignorant an Guardians or Overseers of the Pour of tbe several*) aorfiUisft^po^Ihltois^W^ftial caddofk unions, parishes, and places respectively. The main ^ ** objects foi: which the regulations purport to provide are onefly, »u»i m the words oi tne statute, as follows: ‘Forihe speedy interment of the dead; for house-to- house visitation, for the dispensing of medicines, guarding against tbe spread of disease, and affording to persons afflicted by or threatened with such epi demic, endemic or contagious diseases such medical aid and such accommodation as may he required.’ In order that these objects should be promptly a§)d adequately fulfilled in auy district where cholera-may show itself, it is necessary that all authorities who will be resyonsibledor fulfilling them skoukLbktll in their yaapektite districts, reccmai#e^ jpijd range the ihcasnres which, in case Of need, are to be taken. Therefore the regulations require that in all cases (not only in cases where cholera is actually present within the jurisdiction) an immediate mV? ing of the authority shall be held, and certain prapar< atory directions be given. But, except to this extent, no action under the Diseases Prevention Act Is re- w . ...... ....... quijmii of m district, unless cholera be actually wrap* emanating influences of privation, fatigue, exposure, eiitfckerq. e \ 4 A ^ " Kf. and the like; and, as regards diet, especially to avoid Cottaa Bewmreea af tMm toatk. - This is the title of an able article in De Bow’s Review for August. The- writer, Ed ward Atkinson, of Massachusetts, states that he has been engaged in the manuScture of cotton -goods - for fifteen years, and that he has paid rihrtjcular attention to the culture And comSfiree of the Staple. Bfie'ifiattrjcs afford evidence of his knowledge_pf the sub, jeefc in many of its relations. His essay may be divided into three parts—1, As. relates to the cnltnre; 2, As regards, generally, the Sources of supply; and 3, In rdation to the pro^nble amount of the crop of 1866. On the first of these heads his infonnation is very-ample-and comprehensive.

As to personal precairtibns, In a harrOtVer^sfensi of the words, only oue general rule can be laid down- a rule, fiowever. which is most important for persons who unfortunately finu themselves in toe midst of local outbreaks of cholera, and which each individual must apply according to his experience of his own bodily habits—the rule of living as strictly as possi ble on that system whiah commonly agrees best with the health; to ’ guard, aa far as practicable, against all all acts at intemperance, and all such eating and drinking os are likely to disturb the stomach, of very grave responsibility which ia thrown by the Diseases Prevention ActLs^||iM03 . _ thereunder issued, and will be anxious to acquit them selves of the responsibility in a manner commensur ate with its importance. But if unhappily auy par ticular district should suffer a sudden and extensiff epidemic, it may be that the authority, though with every disposition to discharge its duty, Will have diffi culty. in providing for all requirements of tne case, and will be in danger of finding (tsolf overtasked. It is to be hoped thqt in any such crisis, it anywhere it should arise, voluntary local assistance will not be wanting to tbe authority.. Amoug the duties which would have to be discharged some do not require skilled officers, but may with equal propriety he de volved on discreet and intelligent persons ; and it might be of great local service that such persons, in committees or otherwise, should be ready to co-operate with the authority. Especially the authority would then be enabled to extend, beyond limits which would else b«i|o$sd>le, that system-ot^lionsq>|fr4yjMaeEvfeita- i. That such precautions as the above (never un- wlfibff in v4fftklaw^ys#Ki^^butk45te^siii^por- iuainubu^u«m “ 0 . - - - tant oi local agencies fbr stopping the progress of an epidemic, not only as prayifiiug for the prompt medi cal treatiqeut of ‘ Jiance on them—that British India will f^il «>arfr from the socurity of districts; aiuUbr I -to afford, even under the stimulus of high «PPly- -Old comp«4e tor fnfi 'tfitiiaary supplies received bon the UmtqdjjStateg.. His final conclnrion on ^ branch of his subject is, that the Unitecf States possess a virtual monopoly, from nat ural causes, -df the articlh-^-fal ■ a vtord. that Cotton.is still King. There is not much originality ii this view. .Mr, King, of Georgia, has exhausted the tub, ject iu ite.physical aspect—that of soil aoa climate. He proved that there was a belt of lahd with each climatic conditions running across Abe continent of America, which was noronty psculiarly, but almost exclusively adapted to the cultivation of cotton. Mr. Atkinson has entered into some farther de tails and illustrations of this partot the sub ject, which confirm the conclusions of Mr. King. The moral and political aspect of the subject has received fuller attention from him than from almost any other writer. The author of this article being then in Georgia, prepar<;itamljpui>liilMd ife;.1863.a Mrks of essays in the Savannah Republicio7 entitled the “Question of Cotton Supply,” in which its inoral and political phase was fully con sidered, particularly the question of supply from British India, which was discussed prin cipally from two poiuta of view. The ob stacles presented from the existing ten ore of land In British India to any large increase of cultivation? Thelmpediments that existed to tbe' commerce between that country and Kurftpe, being circuitous, and not an ex change of equivalents, bnt of silver mainly for-cotton, and tbe consequent commercial derangement by such exchange. Mr. Atkin son makes casual allaaioa to the former of these knpediments, but makes no mention.of the latter. But it is very obvious t ial if Eu ropean nations, and especially England, are to pay a frequent balance for the excess of cotton imported from the East by an expor tation of silver bulliou, for which tbe is fre quently compelled to exchange hergold, that this forms a serious impediment to the exten sion of the qotton culture io that region, of the *«rthj! Ou the prababU amcufiiHolUhe cotton crop of 1866, although the author of the article makes no specific estimate^ he rejoices “that the large estimates of the okl cotton remaining at the end of tbe rebellion were erroneous, and that with the small crap of this year there may not be enough to cable any great redaction of price. ” From this we inlet it-to be his opinion that cotton wiU not fall much below its present price. Now-although we are inclined to give ihe highest arsmmemlation to Uu. paper as to it a view of the general sources of supply, and the intelligent examination in detail of each country which has been mentioned as afford ing a portion of such supply, we must dissent fivin some of his other conclusions. Ho entertains the notion that the culture of cotton may be greatly extended by cutting up the land into, holdings of twenty, thirty, and fifty acres, and cultivating by a system of free white labor. He says; “I hope soon to see scarcity ol labor tending to proper treatment bf the freedmeu aud to competi tion for their labor.’’ cho*£cd. For instance, tber© is wo reason to suppose that fruits and vegetables, of sjich kin ls and iff such states as would be wholesome in ordinary seasons, are unwholesome when cholera is t>ra«ent; nor (subject to what will directly be said about premonitory diar rhea) is there any reason to believe that persons in good health ought in cholera times, with a notion of fortifying themselves against tfie disease, to take drugs3U4 inns which,$iry^vqjil<| riot ; in {Ordi nary times.

That ailment in diarrhoea. For the most partita this country cholera begius somewhat gradual ly ; so that for some hours of even days .before tfie symptoms become alarming a so-called ‘premonitory diarrhoea’ may be observed. •' Where cholera Is tend ing to be epidemic there always exists, side by aide with it. in the district a large amount.?/ epidemic diarrhoea, representing in part the earlier stages, in other part the slighter degrees, of the same insidious and infectious malady. a^This diarrhoea (painless aud apparently trivial thofagu it KeJ nii'ay iu auy case sud denly convert itself into cholera; and, apart from the very serious sigbifikodeb if Ore -flpaf{k4ui as regards the patient himself, it musi be remembered tbat every andh'diarrhoed patient hfayW&fetfl-spHhg of inlhK* tion to others, it also seems probable that accidental diarrhoea, originally xnddpendOilt of the epidemic in fluence, is, of aH known personal conditions, the one on which the cholera-infection can most easily fix it self. And thus ou all accounts it is of the most essen tial importance that no looseness of bowels should be negffected iu places where cholera, exists. A very im portant part of their Lordships’ Medical Relief Regu lations enjoins the inakiug of local arrangements bv which this obfaft slfclf to OciiMd SJt alP tkfe poorer inhabitants of infected districts; and other classes of the population are watnefl tobe also Vigilant for them selves. In anvq infected district every looseness ol bowels or sickness of stomach ought, as quickly as possible, to be brought uuder skilled medical treat ment; jmAiftfce Wjmptatas' befett a* ati sharply, or if they (however mild) do not very promptly yield to treatment, the patient ought invariably to remain in bed. “10. Too much impirtaflee capnot bei attache#$6 the duty of thoroughly aisinfernne, without delay, with chloride of ^Ume or otherwise, all discharges from the stomach and bowels of persons under the epidemic influence, as well as all bedding, clothing, towels, and the like, which etch discharges may have imbued; and ilTprtviefe 4k<| l|tyi mates to which such discharges may have access should be kept flood ed with solution of sulphate of iron, or solution of car bolic acid., » i.t ; it. j . “ 11.
