THE CHOLERA AND ITS TREATMENT.
BY A MISSIONARY niYSICIAN.
The probability that the cholera, which
proved so great a scourge in Western
Asia and in parts of Europe,- in 1SG5,
may visit thc United States during the
coniiug season, gives much interest and
importance to a paper on the subject, pre
pared by Dr Pratt, of Marash, (Ccutral
Turkey mission.) lie was at Constanti
nople during the prevalence of the epi
demic in that city, and states that, "after
consultation with Dr. Hamlin and others,
who had practical experience in former
epidemics of the kind, a circular was pre
pared, suggesting principles and methods
of management, a copy of which was fur
nished to each mission family." This
was afterwards modified, as the result of
experience, and he has now furnished it,
substantially, for publication in the Her
ald. Thc effioac- of thc treatment may
be seeu from thc following statement.
"An experiment was made in carrying
out these directions, by Messrs. Long and
Trowbridge, in several of thc Khans of
the city. In these great caravansaries.
hundreds of stangers live, laborers of
an sons irom all parts or tiic country,
hiring only rooms and taking care of
themselv.es. Iany of them live in the

"Thc remedies and methods are not

cation by people of common sense, and in
this experiment, cerfainly, proved emi
nently succc.-sful.

Symptoms of tlic Disease.
"Colera is a disease of the stomach and
J intestines, manifested by purging and
vomiting, and running, sooner or later,
jnto djsci,;,rres like water with rice boiled
in it. This te the essential nature of the
disease, no matter where it appears.
When it comes as an epidemic commonly
called 'Asiatic cholera there co-exists,
to a greater or less degree, what is called"
malignancy; manifested by coldness of the
surface of thebody, depressed pulse, pur-
pie shriveled appearance of extretnx tes , 0hiof -n th(J Survcyor.Genirars 0Cice.

hours, aud before the purging and vom
iting have had time, of themselves, to
produce any effect.
Treatment.
"To meet these conditions, the follow
ing directions must bo carefully followed.
"(1) Por thc stage of diarrhea. This
may come on insidiously, painless aud
hquce not alarming, but should be met
promptly. The remedy is, 'The cholera
mixture so called, consisting of equal
parts of
Laudanum, Tincture of Rhubarb, and
Spirits of Champher.
"Begin jvith 30 drops, taken clear and
unmixed, with a little sugar placed iu the
mouth afterwards. Repeat the dose af
ter every evacuation, increasing it if thc
case becomes urgent to 60 drops, (a ta
blespoonful,) or DO drops if necessary.
If the diarrhea is not controlled by this
means, an iujection of from 30 to 90 drops
of laudanum, in a table-spoonful of starch,
will prove a valuable help. This may be
often repeated. If the diarrhea ceases, do
not entirely iutcrmit the medicine, but
give in gradually diminished doses, every
one or two hours, for a period of twelve
or even twenty-four bourse.
"(2) For the vomiting stage, the best
remedy is
Laudanum, Tincture of Capsicum,

WORK A BLESSING.
Many young men have fathers that arc

no particular prospect. They scorn a

there is a principle that is more important
at the very threshold ot lile than another,
it is that man is born to icorh. At the

QCr A legal "double six." A jury in
New York last week, a'fter a three days'
trial, and being locked up nil night, stood
" iust hung," and on coming into court sub

And put it safely by,
I'll spend my days and nights in Court,
And all the causes try.

Three hundred and forty Indians, of
the Yellow Medcinc trible of Sioux, the
remnant of Little Crow's baud, who com
mitted thc massacre in 18G2,and taken were
prisoners by Governor Marshall, have
been sent up the Missouri river, to be set
tled in a portion of one of thc territories,
where they will be watched aud kept out
of mischief. One of them boasts that he
killed and seapled a dozen white women.
Thirty-nine of thc ringleaders of the
massacre were tried and hung, but Little
Crow made his escape with a portion of
his band. These Indians, of whom about
one hundred and fifty are squaws,, have
been held as hostages ever since.

much dissatisfaction with the awards,
