Blue of the marino service Df this city received -
ceived two hatters this morning from hIs I
brother , Victor : , who Is an ensign on board
the Unltel States steamer Dennington , now
stationed at Honolulu. In one letter , bearing
date of August 23. Ensign Blue states that
cholera broke out In the islands two week-
previously an/I It was constantly on the In-
crease. On September 2 , two ( lays before
the sailing of the Mariposa , EnsIGn Bue
wrote a letter , In which he statell that six
men were down wih the disease on board
the Dennington , all the Ihlp's surgeon feared
that the disease had hardly b gun. He had
made a mlcrocoplc examinaton , of the excretions -
I cretons and pronounced It to be a virulet
typo of Asiatic cholera.
"We all feel very blue here at the pros-
peel , " writes Ensign Due , "anel the excUe-
ment Is intense , and It Is not to be wondered
at , for the disease Is spreading with alarm-
Ing rapIdity. The Iennlnglon has let anchorage -
age off Honolulu und gone southward 100
mnihes. We wi return once a week after

were reported lt Honolulu , and nearly every.
one resulted fatally. I hope to be able to
give you better news when I write again ,
but I fear I wi not be so fortunate. "
