ment of the brethren in everything that pertains to their complete likeness to the

i of cholera in 1882, the average number of ‘deaths per week being 335. and the highest 989, during the week ending July 28. In

the same year 389 died in Aibany and 6,000 in New Orleans. In Philadelphia, as in many other cities, the deaths were not re- corded, and the estimates being made from being of ‘‘like precious faith,” as partaker | the statements of undertakers, are neces- of the same ‘‘one hope of their calling in | sarily incomplete.

hath seen, how can he love God, whom he. hath not seen?” Also in the 5th chapter: | ‘And every one that loveth Him that | begot loveth also him that is begotten of | Him. By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep His commandments.” This brotherly love, like the love of God, is not a mere sentiment, a profession, a doctrine, an article in a creed, something to be elo- quently preached about, to be held and | advocated as an abstraction, or exercised with partiality, as we learn from the same Apostle St. John, ‘‘Hereby perceive we the love of God, because He laid down His life for us,” and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. But whoso hath this world’s goot, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of Godin him.” ‘My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue, but in deed and in trnth.” ‘‘Marvel not my brethren if the world hate you. We know that we have passed from death into life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death. Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer; and ye know that a murderer hath no eternal life abiding in him.” These are words of most solemn import. They appeal to each one of ur. They set forth the very essentials of Chris- tian character, the very roots of the tree of life, from which all beauty and power of life spring. St. Paul says that love is greater than all the gifts of the Holy Ghost combined, and more to be desired than they all. For while the mighty gifts of the Holy Ghost are comparatively temporary, yet charity, love, abideth forever, and though three things abide, faith, hope and love, yet love is preeminent and infinitely above alJ. ‘‘Holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling,” let us see that we ‘love one another with a pure heart, fer- vently,’ and while we earnestly ‘‘desire spiritual gifts,” we also ‘‘follow after char- ity.” : G. W. Connirr. Bell Creek, June 17th, 1884.

“But I would now like to draw your attention to a curious fact in regard to the regular recurrence of cholera. History tells us that it raged in Calicut in Hin- dostan in 1550, and that Jesuit Father Pepen says that it broke out on the Hooghly river, above and below Calcutta, in 1709, which is 18 times 12 or 204 years subsequent to its appearance in Calicut. In 1781, which is 6 times 72 years later, it was very fatal at Juggernaut; in 1817, which is 3 times 12, or 36 years later, it raged with great fierceness, and in 1865, which is 4 times 12, or 48 years later, it epread over Europe, Asia and Africa. Must we not infer that the 12th year festivals in Hin- doostan are the main cause of this pesti- lence!’

In reply to a question of the origin of cholera, Dr. Peters said; ‘‘Cholera originates at Juggernaut, in India, from the over- crowding of pilgrims, whose habits are filthy and whose food is bad. The predis- posing causes in that country are tre- mendous floods, followed by excessive heat and drouth, which kill cattle and crops, avd thus poison the entire region. In 1817 the pilgrims took the disease to Cal- cutta, and thence to Jessore, which from that time became the starting point. The predisposing factors, potent in all climes and seasons, are an atmosphere impregnat-

ed with the products «of fermenting human excrement, a close, hot, stag- nant atmosphere; such unusually high

readings of the barometer—over 30 and up to 30.46° and 30.48 —as favor the chemical decomposition ot er- ganic substances; lowness of site, swampy grounds, decomposition of vegetable mat ter, filthy streets and yards, impure water and bad food. Other recognized causes are undue exposure to the vicissitudes of climate, especially cold nights following hot days; physical fatigue, nervous depression and fear of the disease; undue abstinence from food or the presence of injurious pro- perty in the food ; excess in eating and drinking licentiousness,vitiated atmosphere and, especially, direct exposure to the con- tagion of the disease. That any or all of these causes will be the means of introduc- ing the germs of cholera into the human system has been fully proved by a careful study of the disease, both in Asia, Europe and America.
