CHOLERA
This disease still continues cutting off its victims in Cincinnati, and though the number of cases is greater, yet the proportionate mortality is diminished. In Louisville, it is proving very destructive of life. The deaths are rated at about twenty a day, and increasing.
We learn (verbally) from a very respectable source, that there has been a number of cases of Cholera at the 8 locks, above Circleville, and that seven had terminated fatally.
