DEADLY CHOLERA. Important Facts Abont the Dread Disease.—Opinions as to Its Cause. Europe and the United States are again threatened with an invasion of Asiatic cholera. During the latter months of 1891 and the earl}' months of this year cholera prevailed to an unusual extent in India, more than 40,000 deaths being reported, the number doubtless being greatly increased by the drought and famine from which that country was then suffering, and from which it has not yet recovered. India seems to be the original home of the cholera, and every year it prevails to some extent. varying with the sesasons and local conditions. The attack of last year and last spring was more than usually severe, and after traversing a good portion of India and Persia it appeared some weeks ago in Asiatic Russia and along the Caspian Sea, following the route of the preceding epidemics, with the exception of the epidemic of 1885, which invaded Europe by way of the railway between the Caspian and the Black Sea. Whether, as in 1385, the cholera can be checked in one season and America escape a visitation it is yet too soon to predict, as the history of cholera invasions shows that it is a very capricious disease, and its course is not easily predicted. Cholera, or a least a disease of that name, was known in ancient times, but until about the middle of the seventeenth century neither its prevalence nor fatality invested it with the dread character it assumes in modern times. Cholera was first discovered by Bontius, a Dutch physician, Java, in 1529. Sydenham, the English Hippocrates, described its symptoms in the summer of 1669 and 1676 as sufficient to frieghten the bystanders and kill the patient in twenty-four hours.” The suddenness and fatality of this Asiatic scourge have invested it with a dread greater than that of any other disease of modern times. ITS EARLY RAVAGES. That this dread is only too wellbased on fact the history of cholera shows. In 1762 in Bengal it carried off 30,000 negroes and 800 Europeans in a few months. At Hurdwar in India, in 1780, it destroyed 20,000 people during a religious festival. But the greatest outbreak, and the beginning of the periodical invasions of Europe by cholera, occurred in 1817 at Jessore, 100 miles northeast of Calcutta, where in a few weeks 6,000 people perished. In November, 1817, it attacked the British army in India, and 764 officers and 8,500 men fell victims to the plague, which traversed the entire peninsula in less than a year, and in its ravages even cattle, goats, camels and dogs were said to have died of the disease. In 1819 it reached Canton and Pekin, and in thelatter city the mortality was so great the government was obliged to inter the dead at public expense. In its westward march the outbreak of 1817 followed two routes. By one it penetrated Arabia and at Bussorah, on the right bank of the Persian G ulf, 18,000 of the inhabitants and a third of the population of the surrounding country died of it. The second route was through the center of Persia, and at Baku, on the shores of the Caspian Sea, which has also been invaded the present season, 4,000 succumbed to it. In 1823 it entered A strakan and infected the Russian fleet, but was checked by the vigorous measures of the Russian Government. ITS RE-APPEARANCE. It appeared in Russia six years later, and in July, 1830, Astrakan was once more visited, the deaths this time numbering more than 4,000 victims in the city, and 21,268 in the province of which it is the capital. By September it reached Moscow, where between three and four | thousand died of it in the following j month. In Arabia one-third of the ! inhabitants of towns died, in Persia, 1 one-sixth, in Mesopotamia, from ouetourth to one-third, and in Syria one tenth. In Hungary, in the district of Brissod, nearly 6,000 were stricken, and it has been asserted that not one recovered. Since the first memorable outbreak of cholera in 1817 there have been five epidemics, as follows: 1831-32, 1848-49, 1853-54, 1865-66 and 1885. Caravans, festivals and gatherings have always been the most efficient means of spreading the cholera. Thus, in 1831 cholera was carried to Cairo bv a caravan from Mecca, in August' and thousands died with it in Egypt, while the number of deaths in Mecca reached 15,000. In October, of the same year, it appeared in Sunderland, England, near Newcastle, having been introduced there from Hamburg. In the following February it reached London and prevailed chiefly in the crowded quarters where ventilation and drainage were defective and the water supply impure. In all cities visited by cholera it has been found to prevail with greatest violence in these districts where typhus and typhoid fever most frequently occur, thus

showing its kindred origin and means of propagation. In June, 1832, the cholera crossed the Atlantic and appeared in Quebec on the 8th, Montreal on the 10, and reached New York on the 24 of the same month, from whence it extended to Albany, Philadelphia, Cincinnati, New Orleans, and parts of the southwest. By the 21st of July it had reached its maximum in New York but did not disappear from the United States for tour or five years. The number of deaths from this invasion of cholera was estimated at 40,000 in Great Britian and Ireland, and about 8,000 in the United States. THE PLAGUE OF 1848-49. The cholera plague of 1848-49 began in Persia and India in 1846, entering Europe through Russia and Turkey, and following nearly the same track as its predecessor. During 1847-48 it ravaged Turkey and Russia, and in 1848-49 prevailed throughout the greather part of Germany, Prance, and Great Britain, reaching New York from Havre in December, 1848, where during that year and the year following it prevailed chiefly in the lowest and filthiest regions of the city, though cases occurred in other parts as well. It cannot be said to have totally disappeared from the United States till in 1855, though it was a much less severe in the United States than in Europe, when there were 55,181 deaths from cholerain England alone besides 28,900 from diarrhea or perhaps ‘‘cholerine,” as the lighter form of attack is now called. London escaped the plague of 1848-49, according to the London Times, with half the loss sustained in Paris, and a tithe of the destruction which ravaged Moscow, St. Petersburg or Delhi. Yet even London the weekly mortality rose from the usual weekly average of 900 to 3,000. How this visitation of cholera was regarded in Europe may bo judged from the. following from an editorial in the London Times in 1849: “Doubtless the cholera, like any other phenomenon, either of the corporal or the mundane system, follows certain definite and ascertainable laws. So does typhus fever, so do hurricanes, so do water spouts, so do thunderstorms, so do earthquares. But the laws of which we speak are but a convenient phrase to express the will of the Law giver. The graves of our cities have been crowded with the victims of greedy speculation, careless legislative, and frigid selfishness. They who perished have for the most part perished in fetid alleys, noisome and pestiferous houses, vile and infectious cellars, the structures or properties which were owned by selfish indifference.” Dr. Koch, of the German Cholera Commission in 1884, was the first who promulgated a scientific theory of the origin of cholera. His theory about the comma bacillus has been the subject of learned and lengthy medical discourses, and Dr. Klein’s investigations, as well as the British Commission, at least did not confirm many of the conclusions of the great German specialist. The merits of the controversy, none but a specialist can judge, and to the general public it matters but little whether the origin of the disease be a bacillus or the mystery it has always been to natives of oriental countries, so long as science is not yet able to prevent the disease except, perhaps, by sanitary measures, valuable in all cases where health is concerned. Certain facts, however, have been observed in reference to cholera which are of inestimable value by way of precaution. Professor Pettekofa, of Munich, perhaps the greatest authority on cholera, has shown quite conclusively that the chief, if not the only, means of cholera propagation is by water. Professor Koch, in his observations in India, succeeded in finding cholera bacillus in the foul water in the cholera district in Bengal, and the observations of London physicians conclusively showed that the outbreaks of this disease are connected with the use of drinking water contaminated with the cholera virus. This was also mosj. clearly demonstrated in the cholera epidemic that prevailed in Spain in 1884-86, when it was found that the cholera never became epidemic or dangerous in any city where there was a pure and abundant supply of water, carefully guarded from pollution. Thus, for instance, Madrid had at the time of the plague a population of nearly 400,000, and had but 2,207 cases and 1,366 deaths from cholera from May 20, 1885, to October of that year. ADangerons Potato Pest. The entomologist section of the United States Agricultural Department reports a very dangerous insect enemy of the potato. It is known as the potato tuber moth, and has been exceedingly destructive in Australia. It first appeared in this country in California last November. Efforts will be made to stamp it out by de' straying potatoes infected with it, and if necessary suspending potato culture for a year or two where the moth has appeared.
