JEFFERSONIAN REPUBLICAN
Thaxrsdaj', Jsibic 14, 1849.
FoierUi of JTiiSy.
The 73d anniversary of American Independence
is near at hand, and as yet nothing has been said
concerning a celebration of that event in Strouds
burg. In looking over our exchanges we observe
that grand preparations are being made throughout
our Country for the commemoralion of that the
most sublime epoch in the political history of the
world. When have the American People had a
more fitting occasion to rejoice at the harmonious
operation of their institutions and the universal
prevalence of prosperity and happiness throughout
our borders, than at the present time. . The insti
tution of a comparison between the old and new
world, is sufficient to induce us to cling with more
tenacity, to our magnificent, social and political
fabric, and to effectually kindle every latent spark
of patriotism within our bosoms. When we turn
our eyes to Europe, wefind the waves of one gen
eral commotion dashing and beating upon every
fchore from he Thames on the west, to the con
fines. of.Asia on the east, and from the snow-capped
mountains of the North to the tideless Mediterra
nean on the south. This being the state of things
across the Atlantic, what is the spectacle present
ed at home? Our country, in the interim, is re
posing in the harbor of universal peace bringing
all her energies to bear upon the development of
her exhaustless resources, and employing every
feasible agency for the augmentation of her al
ready colossal power.
If the citizens of this place wish to make any
public display in honor of the day, it is time to be
up and doing, and make the necessary arrange
ments A meeting should be forthwith called,
and a Committee appointed to carry its Resolu
tions into effect.

Sulphnr a Cholera Specific.
As any ihing relating to the treatment of chol
era is interesting at ihe present moment we
copy from the Chicago Journal the subjoined
lelier, written by a physician of high sianding-
at Chicago, who appeare to believe that a spe
cific for the cholera has been discovered in the
use of sulphur. A correspondent of the Albany
Atlas, in referring to the letter of Dr. Herrick,
observes, that " sulphur, it is said, has long been
employed in cholera by practitioners of the ho
moeopathic school, in accordance with direc
tions to that effect in their book," but he justly
adds, that this ought not to prejudice the pnb
lic against its use. Dr. Blancy, mentioned in
the letter, is a nian of science and research:
Dear Sir: In compliance with the request
of my friend, Dr. J. A. Bird, I have made the
following brief synopsis of a letter from him,
sent to me for publication in the North Wes
tern Medical and Surgical Journal which, to
gether with the few additional remaiks which
I have made, you will please publish, in order
that the members of (he medical profession and
our citizens generally may have the means of
testing, and the benefits to be derived, from
what is supposed to be a new discovered reme
dy for the cholera.
J he facts stated in the letter referred to a-
bove are briefly as follows :
About six months since, Dr. Bird and my
self were led into conversation upon the effects
of atmospheric influences in producing epidem
ics, from reading an article from a German
chemist, in our periodicals, in which it was
contended, that influenza depended upon the
presence of ozone, and that the severity and
number of attacks, as shown by chemical analy
sis, was always in proportion to the amount
of this substance in the atmosphere. Taking
this substance in connection with the fact, that
cholera is generally -preceded by influenzas, as
shown by its history, we were led to the con
clusion, that both diseases might be dependant
upon the same influence, modified in degree
according to the greater or less quantity of this
deleterious agent presented in the atmosphere
at the lime.
The next step in the investigation, was to
determine what agent would counteract the in
fluence and destroy the deleterious properties
of ozone. . The accurate chemical knowledge
of Mr. Bird, enable him to suggest at once the
well known substance sulphur as possessing
the properties of acting upon it in such a man
ner as to neutralize its influence. In search
ing for facts to support this conclusion, it was
found that the cholera never had prevailed in
the vicinity of sulphur springs, or in situations
where this substance abounds ; hence the con
clusion, that sulphur might be, and probably
was the antidote for cholera.
In one of our Medical Journals, an article
appeared describing the method of detecting
ozone in the atmosphere, ihus supplying the
v ough the results so far as obtained, in ashcT
Yuneand by a few individuals, seezn tojUsJl
lour conclusions, it is hoped that physicja
will continue to depend on what they connj"'
the most efficient practice in bad cases of cIm
era, until they shall have tested the ina,
themselves, and formed their own conctusjoa!
and also, that whatever may be the connCen5'
of individuals in this orari)yiher remedy, t!
will not depend upon their own judgment
any case, even of slight symptoms, wheneeii
it is possible to consult their physician.
It is suggested by Dr. Bird, that a combinj I
tion of powdered charcoal, one part lo four of
sulphur, has seemed to make the remedy ranr I

means 01 determining wnether or not it was
present at the very time when cholera was be
ginning to make its appearonce amongst us.
Dr. Bird's experiments, as well as those made
subsequently by himself, and by Drs. Bird, Bla
ney and myself from day to day, since that.trfne,
shows that ozone is prsent in our atmosphere,
and that the amount is in proportion to the se
verity of the disease from time to time.
About a week since Dr. Bird determined to
try the effects of sulphur upon himself and
others troubled as nearly all have been more
or less of late, with uneasy .sensations, slight
pains, &c, in the digestive organs. The re
sult was entirely satisfactory, so much so that
Dr. Bird came immediately to my office, and
requested me as a friend, to test its efficacy in
my practice, bin to say nothing to others with
regard to the ingredients used until facts should
justify its public announcement as a discovery.
The benificial effects resulting from its use in
my practice was such as to convince me at
once of its utility in the class of cases described
above. During the last few days Drs. Bird.
Blaney and myself have continued to use this
apparent simple remedy, to the exclusion of all
others in cases of choleric symptoms. The
result has been wonderful. All premonitory
symptoms, such as pain, a sense of fulness, un
natural movements, slight diarrhoea, &c, have
uniformly yielded at once to a dose of three to
four grains of sulphur.
In cases where either cramps, diarrhoea or
vomiting have been present, and in fact where
all these symptoms have existed in conjunction',
the use of sulphur, in the above named doses,
every three or four hours, has had the effect to
ameliorate the patient's condition at once, and
when used, in a few hours, to dissipate choleric
symptoms. So far as its effkacy has been tes
ted in the worst stages of colapse, most satis
factory results have been obtained. In two or
three cases of the kind the effect ofihe remedy
has been to biihg back pulse to the wrist, re
store warmth to the surface, and slop the pro-
iusq uiarrhcea arid vommng. In truth, the re
sults obtained so far, have been such as to con
vince all of us, who have administered it, and
witnessed its effects, that if any remedy de
serves the appellation, tfrjs is a specific for
cholera.
It having been determined to make this pub
lic statement, it is expected in ruturn that no
hasty conclusions will bo made, either for or
against whailpfiars to be a proposition to ac
ctmiplish muchnty very simple means. .. A1-
The Overflow at New Orleans,
TEE SCENES.
The New Orleans papers give aome louch
ing, and at the same time amusing sketches f
the condition of affairs in that city, caused b
the overflow. The distress has been great arij
wide-spread. In the suburb streets the housej
are surrounded by water from one to fue feel
in depth, and the difficulty of intercommunica.
tion is of course very serious. The inhabiiatiij
can get along tolerably well in boats, but unlejj
at aii expense insupportable to the poor, t
is impossible for servants to repair regularly
market. People in that quarter are compelled
10 live as it were from hand to mouth : mmri
eggs, sailed meats and fish, and &uch provision,
as may be kept without spoiling. The ladiej

encounter the risk of destroying or soiling j1P.Ir

minor evils, and. the editor proceeds io notu
those of a more serious character :
"The water for the last week has been
steadily though slowly rising, and 111 its )rn.
greus has invaded the yards of moM of inures
idents in the back pan of the city, lying i3
many of ihem to the depth of a foot or eiglreea
inches. There is little motion in the aluou
mass and it soon becomes stagnant, its .Mirii:e
mantled with slime and filth, emitting a noisos
and disgusting oder. The all-penetraiitio p.
er of the element has enabled it to force its ar
into the cloace, and these receptacles have, i'i
some instances, bursted and scattered their it
fectious contents in all directions : while u
others the water becomes thoroughly imprej.
nated with feculent matter and sends forth a
horrible stench.
In the meanwhile the yards being submeri
and the water gradually encroaching upon ihe
inteiior of the dwellings, and domestic employ
ment is either suspended or very imperfect,?
performed. Cooking can hardly be goithrouol,
with, as well m consequence of munda:ed kitch
ens, as on account of the extreme difficulty c!
procuring wood. It is absolutely dangeroai,
too, for servants to move about tne yards, unless
their limbs are protected by caoutchouc ow
alls, since noxious reptiles abound and vei.j
mous snakes are frequently seen glancing amnrj
tne waters. Happy tnoso residents win 1. j
