Conditions which favor the development of the poi-on are exclusion of fresh atr. darkness, moisture, and, mor.* than all else, filth conditions. if this p >ison is completely destroyed as soon as it leaves the alimentary canal, there is no danger of the patient’s being a source of infection to other persons. But, if the de jections are thrown, for instance, into the privy vault, the cholera germs find all the favoring conditions above named for their development and increase. Farther facts in relation to the extention of cholera are these Privy vaults, cess p ills, sink drains, hesps of manure, filth-sodden earth, and other unclean places, once con taminated with the cholera-germ, may remain sources of danger for some time, giving off their j>oi«on, which, by being breathed in, may be mixed with the saliva and be swal lowed. Articles of clothing from cholera regions, especially if soiled with the cholera excreta, may carry the disease long distances lit reassured by the fact that cholera comet not from a mysterious epidemic constitution of the atmosphere, but that it comes, as ex plained above, in accordance with certain laws which are now well understood. Re membering this, all unnecessary alarm may he avoided—only that salutary fear is desira ble which shall lead each individual to avoid and remove those conditions which favor not ouly cholera but typhoid fever and other dis ease*. In the absence of a much needed, syste matic supervision of this matter by the gen eral government, a grave responsibility rests upon Siat*' and local authorities. Especially at pops eng *ged in foreign commerce, vigi lance should be constant and actios prompt, w hen r* qnired.

An Inmate of the NnlHlcrs’ Home again JSreaks. Soldiers’ Home Tocos, June 11, 1885. Ed'ttor Kennebec Journal: Sir:—Mr. Thomas. J. Lynch, not content in writing himself down an ass, has in this week's issue of the New Age on the Togus postmaster, written himself down a falsifyer. It is useless to wade through this long effu sion to correct all the misstatements he makes. His allusions to Col. 8mith and Gen. Hvde show the smallness of his mind: a man who has no better understanding at the proprieties of life than to write such a letter as he wrote to the Postmaster-General, and then make it public before the Postmas ter-G-neral had received it, thereby arraign ing him before the country, cannot be expect ed to do any act becoming a gentleman and a man. Mr. Lynch, in his letter to the New Age.says “It is not denied by Mr. Kirk offtiis friends that he is a bitter republican partisan and that fact being so well known to all classes in this section, universal surprise and indig nation was manifested when the appointment was announced Now, Mr. Editor, will Mr. Lynch give to the public hia definition of of fensive partisan Mr. Kirk has never voted since he has been an inmate of the Home. He has never contributed a cent to any po litical organization. He has never made a puli'ical speech. He has never attended a political meeting. He has never written a political article, and he has never advised anv man how to vote. He was a faithful soldier, serving ail through the war, and lost his leg upon the field of battle in defence of his country. Since his nomination as post master he has filed his bond, which was signed by some of the leading and prominent (l-mocrats of Augusta. His nppnintmunt gives great satisfaction to the patrons of this office, his comrades in arms, his companions of the Soldier.’ Home. Inmate Soldiers’ Home. Ueneral Order* No. 7.
