In a house where four grown ones in 24

Lure of health and like the majestic oak ,
first struck with it , and in a few hours
writhing in tune agonies of cramps , and
50011 a corpse , and children of all ages
swept away wits it. All who could well
flcu from our city loft it , and if my
mmnory serves 1110 right , we lost about
7,000 people out of a population rcdneed
by absentees to about 40,000 pee ) le.
From m observation l thick that tune
evacuations from the bowels tend to
spread the cliseutse , aitd that these should
ill all cases be burnt or buried 1)t oiled ,
burning the best , and 11uver thrown into
privies. If imtO our water closets , whet

our sewers should tinily be sluiced out

nations convince sic that the e'acun-
tions are infections , told I luuvo thought
thin' immediately after death there was
greater danger of the disease being coin-
tuttnicated to others ,
I would advise all who can , if it appears -
pears , to get away up north , about tie
lakes. Those who can's et away simould
avoid drinking as much as possibl' avoid
ntolonst green corn , cuctulibers + cabbage
amid acids generally. Live simply , plain.
1 ' on time best of plain , well cooked food
and there is little aner of cholera , but
if you lmvo any symptoms at all of hol-
era , at once stop work , lie down and rest
until a few clays after all symptoncs disappear -
appear , and take laudanum to check
cramp at once , or what is better , see your
physician mid follow rigidly all th ree-
tions ,
These are suggestions front one simply
from experience , who 11)15 no medical
knowledge , and ho suggests that now ,
right at this time , our board of health
and our medical colleges give publicity in
the press of general advice in case of its
nppearanco , and not wait until it comes
before saying a word. CAUTION.
Oregon's Census and Representation ,
I'orttsnd Orevonlan ,
Oregon will desire , doubtless , to have a
special census taken in 1885 , under the
law passed by Congress four years ago
which provides that the census of a State
may be taken at any time , provided half
time expemso shall be paid by flue State.
Now York , Pennsylvania , Illinois amid
Ohio , so the telegraph informs us , have
already asked for a recount under this
hnlf-pay rule. The people of Oregon shad
good cause to be dissatisfied with the census -
sus enumeration of 1850. Many districts
were gone over in a careless way , and it
is thought by many that the total for the
State would have bean greater by some
thousands if the aunt had been careful
and accurate. In Portland , pnrticularly ,
the work was shabbily done , and the
population of time city set down at 17,000
and some hundreds , when n directory
census taken about time same tints , siioved
a'bovo 20,000 , while there ivas better rca-
son to trust the unofficial count Haan the
one made under Government direction.
The chief reason , however , why a new enumeration -
numeration is desirable is that time State
hum fulled up rapidly during the past
three years. Portland alone has 10,000
nioro inhabitants that in 1880 , and it is
safe to assume that there are 40,000 more
people in the State now than thou. By
1885 we shall doubtless have a popula-
tiout sufficiently largo to increase our representation
resentation in Congress. This would be
greatly to our advantage. True area o f
the State is so great that it is impossible
for a single Congressman to nminglo tritlt
the pcoplo and study their wants as n
ropresentati + 'e ought to do , whuile our in
torests are so various that one non line
not the thou to devote to then which 1
their respective needs merit , Easter n n
Oregon has a class of industries with 51w
cial demands , while Western Oregon ha s
distinctively anotlaerclass with its specie
demands. Emit should be represented i n
Congress by a man indcntified with it s
interests. If by 1885 thorn is reason to
believe that the population of time State
him grown to the point allowing us anotll
' er Congressman , the Legislat pro shout d
appeal for a recount under the half-pay
rule ,
