ThqHouthern delegates will meet at half-

Among the persons who have arrived here
are Governors Fairchild, of Wisconsin, and

Virginia, Senators Wade, Chandler, Harris
and Lane.
At the Union Methodist Church, this morn
ing, Parson Brownlow delivered a charac
teristic address. He is laboring under a re
cent attack of palsy, and be said that nothing
could have induced him to have attended the
Convention in his present physical condition
but the deep, abidin$4nteresi he felt in the
cause of his coMtry, and the fierce and ter

and seek some other abode. So far,’* said
the speaker, “as I am concerned, I fled from
the hist time, npd I will i Parmer expire on a

ot Tennessee."
A special meeting of the City.- Council has
been called for to-morrow, to tender the hos
pitalities of the city to the Southern dele- wl *ich reads thus:

A meeting for prayer and conference was
held to-night by a number of the delegates
to the Convention, in tlie rooms of the Union
State Central Committee, op Chestnut street,
tbo partyctfs of, which capable -of bolding
about u’ hundred persons, were crowded.
Some ladies were present. Senator Harris,
of New.York. presided,, and openpd the pro
ceeding*. He .said that t»a{ft feitf assembled
in Ibis city from various parts of tnc country,
to attend a convention the results of which
might affect essentially, if not vitally; the
wellare of this distracted country. It was
therefore appropriate that, on this evening of
the Christian Sabbatb, they should meet to
gether and commend that country to God,
who bad so signally favored tbe country in
the trials through which it bad passed, and
plead with God that, as tbe Country was
about entering upon unexpected trials, it
would not be deserted by him. He closed
by announcing that prayer would now be
offered by the Rev. Dr. Newman; of Louis
iana, who offered prayer, askihg, among
other tbingj, that men might be assigned to
rule over tbe country who would be rid of
pride end egotism aqd amoilion, an! par
ticularly of partisan prejudice.
Senator Harris gave a general invitation to
such as desired to address the . meeting.
Mr. Eaton, of Memphis, denounced the
clergy and church, of the South as the soul
of the rebellion.
Rev. Conway, of New York, lately re
moved from tbe Freedmen’s Bureau in Louis
iana ou charges, earnestly prayed that the
President should be prevented Jrom doing
mischief and taught to do right
Senator Lane, of Indiana, also spoke. He
said false prophets were crying “peace,”.
.‘‘peace,’’ when there was np- pcace. Their
brethren were being slangK&bdln tbe South,
day bv day, and hour by hour. Conventions
legally assembled were being dispersed, and
the streets of Memphis were made to rot
with the blood ot the only loyal men left
there. Even recently iu the neighboring
State of Maryland., men of God, whilst
kneeling at the altar, were slaughtered by
ruffian hands, led on by the same wild spirit
evoked by the institution of slavery. He
continued at some length in the same
strain, and was followed by e Mr. Strong, of
St. Louis, fiho believed ih bis heart ot hearts
that Ibis was a religious struggle. Mr.
Palmer, of Tennessee, denounced the Presi
dent as a public disgrace.
About six hundred delegaten-itoye so far
registered their names.

Requests for information concerning the latest and
best results of experience in the application of pre
ventive measures against cholera are now so numer
ous and important as to render it necessary for us to
prepare a concise summary of practical points rela
tive to this subject.
The epidemic has recently become so prevalent and
threatening in the commercial centres of the Missis
sippi Valley, and in various portions of Europe, that
sanitary vigilance will be the price of sanitary securi
ty for many mouths to come in all cities, towns and
families that cholera is liable to visit. Precisely what
are thesources of peril, or whereiu the iufection or
infective agent and conditions, and precisely what are
the best methods of protection therefrom should be
known everywhere.
Experience in New York and Brooklyn this Sum
mer has afforded abundant testimony to the value of
the definite sanftary measures which have proved
most available In' these two cities. This 'experience
and a precise kuowledge of our methods willicontinue
to be eagerly sought by towns that are exposed |o the
epidemic. These methods were based upon sanitary
researches of which the public had little knowledge
previous to the present epidemic. Responsible pub
lic duties and constant inquiries in hygiene led to the
practical conclusions upon which preventive measures
against cholera are based, and these conclusions now
have the full support of the chief authorities in • sani
tary science.
To Dr: Wm. Budd, of England, whose researches
commenced in 1849, and partially made known- m
1854 to Profs. Von Pettenkefer and Pieiflfer and
Thiersch,of Bavaria, and to Dr. E. A. Parkes and sev
eral army surgeons in India, we owe the confirmation
of the facts upon which the methods of onr procedures
iu cholera were based last Spring. As early as 1855
these facts were known to us, aud were incorporated
into the sanitary regulations of the quarantine hos
pitals under our direction. But iu the terr|Dle expe
riences of the Crimean campaign, in later more convin
cing expcrinces in Northern India in I860-*61—-a faithful
report of which has been officially suppressed, because
both the neglect and the utility of protective meas
ures were proven; then, since 1862, in the redemption
of the East Indian armies from the pestilence by tbe
operation of Sir Hugh Rose's military order, enforc-
the preventive measures which Drs. Budd, Paf-
and others had advised to be promulgated by
that distinguished commander-in-chief in India;
and finally, the success of these new and exact
methods wherever enforced in Europe last year, the
principles upon which we base our methods were
fully corroborated.
Humanity and every claim of society demanded
that when the Asiatic pestilence again visited this
chief center of the word’s immigration and the conti-
ueut’s trade, there should be no delay of uncertainty
in applying all the sanitary resources which the pro
gress of the knowledge has given. Yofif Board lias,
furnished %u example of prompt and unhesitating re-
Ueftoe upon the resources of sanitary science. The
experience of your sanitary officers the present sum
mer, and the results witnessed elsewhere warrant us
in sending forth the statements now presented.
PRACTICAL POINTS CONCERNING PREVENTABLE CAUSES
OF EPIDEMIC CHOLERA.
The preventable pauses of cholera are belived to de
pend upon two essfeAtial factors, viz : 1st—The fluids
discharged from the stomach and bowels of the sick
with cholera or any kiifd of choleraic diarrhoea; 2d—
Local conditions contaminating the atmosphere of the
drinking water.
All localizing causes should be removed beiore
cholera comes, and they must be controlled by cleans
ing and antisepti& whenever it is present.
The infective fluids that are discharged by the sick,
whatever the period of iliaeap, must be quickly aud
entirely destroyed, or be specially and permanently
disinfected*
The conclusions of medical knowledge relating to
the question of the specially infective agency oi the
“rice-water” and diarrliceal discharges, are well stated i
as follows:
[Dr. John Simon, in a recent note from Privy Coun
cil to sanitary authorities.]
It appears to be quite characteristic of cholera —not
only of the disease in its developed and alarming form,
but equally of the slightest* diarrhoBa which the epi
demic can produce—that ail matters which the patient
discharges from his stomach and bowels are infective,'
and that the patient's power of infecting other penons
is represented almost or quite exclusively by ti^pse
discharges, aud that, however, they are comparatively
non-iufectiveut the moment when they are discharged,
but alter ward, while undergoing decomposition, these
fluids acquire their maximum of Infective power; that
if they be cast away without previous disinfection,
they will impart their owu infective quality to the ex-
cremeutal matters with which they mingle iu filth—
sodden earth, or in depositories and conduits of filth,
and to the effluvia which those excrementai matters
evolve; that, if the infective material, by leakage or
soak age from drains or cesspools, or otherwise, has
access, even in the smallest quantity, directly oi
through porous soil, to wells or other sources of drink
ing water, it can effect in the most dangerous manner
very large volumes of water; that the infective influ-
euce of choleraic discharges attaches to whatever bed
ding. clothing, towels, and like things that have been
imbued witn them, aud renders these things, if not
disinfected, capable of spreading the disease in jdaces
whither they are sent for washing or Other purposes;
that, in the above-described ways, even a single cfcse
of disease, perhaps of the slightest degree, aud per
haps quite uusuapected in its neighborhood, may, if
load circumstances co-operate, exert a terribly infect
ive power on considerable masses of population.
There are such liabilities to the very rapid and Wide
dissemination of cholera whenever it gains foothold

exciting and the disseminating causes of the epidemic.
Every passenger vessel should guard against evils by
means of constant ventilation and the use of
tics in all foul and damp places. Perfect fUt
and ventilation of the ship or boat and a proper can
for the sick, and faithful reporting of the sick to-offi
cers of the ship aud sanitary authorities in porta, are
vitally important duties.
Railroad officers should enforce daily repeated
cleansing and the use of antiseptics inxhe accommo
dations at passenger stations and in the closets of pas
senger cars. Quarantine and sanitary Cordons are
rarely available between inland towns and neighbor
ing ports, except for the single purpose of cleansing
and for the discovery and care of the sick, aud this is
humanity not quarantine. Between distantfiarts the
sanitary restraints aud quarantine detentions will be
determined according to circumstances and to the
sanitary condition aud regulations of the port, dis
trict, ^nd intelligence of the sanitary authorities.
Sanitary inspection, cleansing of vessels, and the
prompt care of the cholera sick are duties that ahoflld

every privy, water-closet, house*and drain, the trim
ming out aud distribution, of the occupants, and
provision fit every requisite means pf care for J
sick are the best guards against an ihVasion of cholera.
“To be forewarned is to be forearmed." i
Preventive measures and prophy.Iaotlo csra.~lst,
secure thurough cleansing and the preservation of
purity; 2d, apply the appropriate antiseptics iu privies,
water-closets, garbage-tubs, and upon Whatever is
liable to putrefaction; guard against til impurities of
drinking water, particularly from filth:8oaking and
other organic matter. To test for the presence of such
organic impurities in drinking water, proceed as
lows: Make a solution of cbraticaUj pars permang
ate.of potassia, 8 gcaius and 2 ounce of distilled water.
Into one-half pint of the impure or suspected water,
in a goblet or tumbler, pat one drop of the red sola
Uon;if the red tint disappears from the glassful iu
half an hour, add more of. the solution. For every
drop that loses iis color in the half pint there will be
found tg Jm from 1>£ tf 2 grains of putrid organic
math*.*j3To purify each water, if it must be used,
drop in tlie permauaganate until the red tiut remains
in tne water. But it is better never to uso water that
needs Buch purification.
WHEN CHOLERA COMES,
the sick must have coustant and faithftil care. Upon
the early aud intelligent and sanitary and medical
care of cholera, especially the first cases, may depend
the preservation uf families and neighborhoods from
ravages of the epidemic.
The first symptom—djarrlicba—must receive medi
cal attention without a moment's delay. Choleraic
diarrhoea, and all diarrhoeal diseases in the family,
house aud neighborhood where there is cholera,
should receive the same sanitary care as cholera. Ail
persons with such diseases should be under medical
care, and the privies and vessels used by them should
be conffifffj *
Tim aidkwtfotufennd tbaOiatise where there is cholera
should be ventilated as constantly and as forcibly us
possible. Perfect cleanliness must be enforced. Every
particle of the fluids ejected by the patient, and nvtry-
thiugthat is soiled by them, must be disinfected witp>-
The chief centres or fields of the epidemic Should
daily inspected, aad kept under the full infotencs
Banliness and antiseptics. ■ - ;
House-to-house visitation, to discover aad arrest
the premonitory diarrhoea, should be resorted to
every cholera-field, whether a single row of born
a district, or a town. Wherever cholera beoofaes fo
calized* such searching for its earliest symptoms in
the iuliabitants is a measure of public safety, as well
i humanity.
Business and commercial intercourse ought not to
be seriously interrupted when cholera prevails. The
public safety must depend upon sanitary regulations,
and not upon universal quarantine. If the local
Boards of Health will publish daily the names and

MEMORANDUM ON DISINFECTION AND DMINVRCTAWtS, AS
ADVISED BY THE METROPOLITAN BOARD 09
Uses.—L—To destroy or neutralize the ofleaA
gases and pioducta of putrefaction.
II.—To prevent fermentation aud putreLection.
ILL—To destroy nil intention end infective pro-
.1 it". I eeuenintbfeireqitta sontofiionn and
infections.
Available Disinfectants.
I.—Chlorine, chlorinated soda, chlorinated lime,
chlorides of zinc, iron and manganese; sulphates oi
iron and zinc, permanganate of potash, carbolic acid,
autf the Coal tar preparatioae, are the moat available
deodorizing disinfectants.
IL—Fermentation and all putrefaction win be moet
1--If~itl —•* by carb*l««cid and coal tar pre-
paMtions, aqd may bs aidsd tW any of the metalic
of the metalic sulphates and chlorides
named above; the carbolic preparations, and the hypo
sulphites of lime and soda, are those reliable. For
practical purposes, saturated solutions of the sulphate,
or tbe proto-chloride of iron, and any appropriate
form of carbolic and coal-tar preparations are cheapest
and most etfectuaL
to any populous district that it ih an, treaty the duty.
Of ivory community to be prepared lor its fcpearance.
This liability is faithfully sat tarltk' U tM following
conclusions, which were unanimously adopted a few
weeks ago by the International Conference at Con
stantinople:
(a) By persons in the state of devel$>ed cholera.
(b) By persons suffering from choleraic diarrhoea,
who cau move about and, wilo are ^qpnently in
health for some days during tbe progress of the dis-
These last, from their passing unquestioned and
unsuspected, are the most dangerous to the commu
nities among whom they move. • ;>i
That the discharges of those in a state of developed
cholera, or iu a elate of choleraic diarrhoea, become
the chief means by which the cholera poison escapes
from tbu system, and by mingling with the air or
water diffuses the disease. I
That cholera may be transmitted by exposure of
persons to the atmosphere of butldingB, places or ves
sels which have been occupied by cholera patients,
and to the emanations front clothes, bedding, or other
articles which have been in contact with diseased in
dividuals, or which may have become soiled by their
discharges.
That when infected articles or places are shut up
and excluded from free air, they preserve their danger-
aus qualities for an indefinite length of time, and, on
the other hand, the freer the expuaure to ventilation,
the more rapidly they become innocuous.
That there is no reason to suppose tbe cholera is
communicable by actual contact between individnaik.
8UMMABT OF FACTS BKLATINO TO SANITARY JtEASUUKf
> AGAINST EFIDBMIC CHOLERA,
As nowwooepted by tbe beat Unformed sanitary au
thorities, and aa recognized in the practicafewpaaw
tiona of the Metropolitan Boafid of Health of New
York.
BEFORE CHOLERA COMBS:
eaaB ing—absolute, thorough and continual cleans-
ing—of dwellings, court-yards, cellars, vault
drama, garbage, privies, stables a
1. Quicklimes.—To absorb moisture and putrid
fluids, use fresh stone lime, finely broken; sprinkle
it abundantly on tlie place to be dried, and in damp
rooms place a large number of plates filled with the
lime powder. Whitewash with pure, fresh lime, and
not with kalsomme. ,
2. unurcoal Powder—To absorb putrid gases. The
coal must ho dry and fresh, and should be combined
-w*h luab. This axaeBswt compound is the “calx
•powder. ~ * -
3. Chloride of Lime—To give off chlorine, to absorb
putrid effluvia, aud to stop putrefaction. Use it as
lime is used, and if in cellars or close rooms, tbe chlo-
rum gad is wanted, pour diluted sulphuric or mu
riatic acid upon your plates of chloride of lime occa
sionally, and add more of the chloride.
• 4. Sulphate of Iron (Copperas)— 1 To disinfect the dis
charges from cholera patients, and to purify privies
aud drains. Dissolve 10 pounds of the copperas in a
large pailful of water, and pour a gallon or two of this
strong eolation into the privy, water closet or drain,
every hour—if cholera discharges have been thrown
iu those places, but for ordinary use, to keep privies
and water closets from becoming offensive, poor a
pint of this solution into every water-cloeet, pan or
privy-seat eveiy night aud morning. Bedpans and
chamber vessels are best disinfected in this way, by a
leacupful of the copperas solution. Add the asms
quantity of carbulic fluid on coal-tar powders to insure
perinaeeM disinfection. Chloride of zinc, chloride
of mangsnere or protoahloride c-f iron may ba substi
tuted for the sulphate of iron.
- V Permanganate of Potassa—to be need in disin
fecting clothing and towels from cholera and fever pa
tients, during the night, or when such articles cannot
be instantly boiled. Throw the soiled articles imme
diately into a email tub of water, in which there hea
been dissolved an ounue of the permanganate salt to
every two or three gallons of water, until the clothing
As boiled, and see to it that the permanganate salt or
a ^h*
J “ Tug A pint of “Labarraqne’a solution of chlorinated
node” may be used for the same purpose in the tub of
water, if tbe clothing is to be very soon boiled. Either
of these solutions may be need In cleauaing the coiled
parts uf the body of sick or dead persons; may also be
used in bed-pans, Ac. The permanganate solution
will instantly disinfect and deodorise whatever it
tonches: bnt its action continues only while it gives a
i hi rule or mdfllsh color.
O^IwboUcAcid aud the OoaMar disinfectants are
the most efficient and permanent antiseptics. T*“
crystalized acid (costly) will discolor in loo tames
own weight of water. A tablespooufol of such ao
thin will disinfect a chamber vessel. The fluid si
(cneap)—70 per cent strength of crystahzed—is most
available for common use : Dilute it In SS, 50, or more
parts of any ot the iron or chloride solutions—for
fluid use—or in fine quick-lime or mw-dnst. Use to
disinfect discharges pf cholera psthmlk we-
