Governor*Hamilton, of Texas, was ap pointed to reply to the address of welcome to be delivered by Charles Gibbons. ThqHouthern delegates will meet at half- past nine o’elpek to-morrow morning, at the club -momr of the National Union Club House, where they will be formally received. ■The members wdltheq proofed to National Hall, where the Southern Loyalists’ Conven tion will convene. Among the persons who have arrived here are Governors Fairchild, of Wisconsin, and Fletcher, of Missouri; John Minor Botts, ot 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 rible conflict now going on between the exe cutive and legislative departments of the Federal Government. l&S&SBBtSXSlSSSZ ists and colored loyalists will have to leave 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 lamp-post, under the shadow ot the capitol 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: gates to the Convention. * 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.

SS?" 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 classes, Watch the first tendencies \o provide immediate medical care Tor the sick disorder, particularly if occurring in iqpfrfecfntlyftWN the feeteap whfj 'Seaports and all waterside towns that hr tine or boating intercourse with infected should institute Btrict sanitary inquiry vessel arriving from such places withrefei symptom of cholera to be under medical ad 1 all filthy vessels to receive sanitary orders, for the neglect of sanitary cleaaina aud care m both sea and inland passenger vessel* 4hd the neglect of the eholsm sick On board of them, frequently have furniabed Mis 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 not be neglected m any seaport or commercial river town. »•! i houses, asylums, hgtels^apd all edfices — * . numbers If ftqhle arrtfoiljr r tMnmi sanitary condition without a day’s delay. Cleansing, constant ventilation, and the daiJb-flushing aud disinfection of 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 residences of all who die of cholera, aad truthfully state where end how the epidemic is prevailing* the public will profit by the information. Let it be Dome in'mind that filth, crowding, and the neglect of ape cific sanitary precautions, are tne preveutible of the dissemination of cholera.

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.
