The following is in addition to the European we telegraphed from the steamer Java yes- terday: The cholesa has almost disappeared from Madrid. Tte number of inhabitants who had left the city on account of the cholera is said to have been £9,000. The English Government had given its ad- besion to the proj 1 of France that an Inter- national Sanitary Conference should assemble at Constant nopile, with the object of devising Measures for preventing the spread of cholera from Asia into Europe, and removing as far as possible the causes which lead to outbreaks of this epidemic. The proposal had been fayor- ably received by most of the European goy- ernments. The arrangements for the funeral of Lord Palmerston had been completed. The funeral will be conducted in the most private manner, by the express wish of the deceased. It would take place on the afternoon of the 25th of Oc- tober, at Romsey, in Hampshire. There would be no lying in state, but several of the Cabinet would attend the funeral.

BrotHErHoop oF THE Union.—The Sn- preme Circle of the Brotherhood of the Union, (H. F.) C. A., heid its fifteenth annual session in the Odd Fellows’ Hall, corner of 3d and Brown streets, Philadelphia, Pa., on Tuesday, October 3d, 1865. Quite a number of Circles were represented, and tne business was trans- acted to the satisfaction of all present. A union of the independent order with that or the orig- inal order was successfully effected, and sev- eral excellent speeches were made by the rep- resentatives from Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Maryland and the District of Columbia. The order is on the increase, and the future promises mucn for the Brotherhood. The offi- cers elected for the present term of two years are:—S. W., G. L. Foy, of New Jersey; 8. J., J.

The miscellaneous list continues quiet, but with a fair degree of strength in prices. When the railroad list has been stretched to the utmost possible tension, speculation may be expected to turn upon coal stocks, which. from the high price of coal, ap- pear to form a basis for an advance.

SouTHERN View THE ELecTiens.—An editorial article in the Charleston Courier, on the recent elections in the North, contains the following passage: “Politicians who take their cue from such men as Vallandigham, and applauded the merits of the Chic: latform, will be very sure to fail in any Forthern election. Possibl: these men may think they are doing the South a service DY SUll clinging’ Ww there ridiculous and false notions, whereas just the contrary is truth. The South will’ be satisfied if the North will support President Johnson. It does not ask ifthe yoters or victors are Democrats or Republicans, so long as they stand true to the Government. It is time this Chicago plat- form was kicked into oblivion. It would be far better for the South to seek protection of the most radical ofthe Republicans than to al- ted itself tobe humbugged by the Copperhead jon.’ &7 Albert Starkweather, the wretch who re- cently murdered his mother and sister near Hartford, and who 1s now awaiting trial in the jail in that city, attempted to effect his escape afew nightsago. His plan, as revealed to a fellow convict, was to feign sickness, and then to call in the jailor, whom he was to kill with a-stick taken from the bedstead. Robbing the dead man of his keys, he would then, under cover of the night, easily make his trom the jail. His confiaent, however, informed the jailor of the intended assassination, and Stark- weather was removed to more secure quar- ters. This desperate character, ever since his confinement, has been ea, planning an escape, and on one occasion of! the estate of his mother, yalued at $12,000, to the jailor it he would permit him to get out.

THE CHOLERA AT NEW YORK. _ scenes Pct ler PANIC THERE. helen Saal Movements of the Health Commissioner. nelle The New York papers of last evening come to us with details showing the excitement caused in New York by the arrival of the cholera per the steamer Atlanta, at that city, The Express eays: The Atlanta arrived last eyeni: Lower Quarantine, and Doctor paged immediately on board. While making the medical examination of the passengers, he found a large number sick, and he soon ascer. tained that their disease was Asiatic cholera. He found on the second eabin eleven lying on beds, who had been stricken by the scourge; and others presented tokens of having og mgd - ee Gomes form. Dr. Watson once made ingui in regard i the disease had finet peared ogwtamng and he ascertained that it had broken out two days after the vessel left Havre, where she took on board 448 passengers, and that a num. gl ee to it, and were buried se ay: roceeded through evet Ofd taeda, ub Fin oruerea ms uot oe anchored in the Lower Bay, preparatory to further action. The vessel then steamed for the roadstead, this side of Sandy Hook, where she remains, but all communication with her = been strictly forbidden by the Health Micer. Important Moctings f the Health Comm’ sion. Dr. Swinburne, the health officer, at once re- ported these facts to the Mayor and the other members of the Health Commission, and a meeting of that body was at once convened in their office. Nearly all the members of the organization were present, and the attendance included the Mayors of Jersey City and acsnaggs e together With some medical gentlemen. The session ‘was strictly private, but the proceedings were given to the press at the close. Dr. Swinburne having reported the detention of the Atlanta on account of Assiatic cholera on board, said there were eleven cases of the disease on board the vessel, and that his assist- aut, Dr. Nelson, who made the medical exam- ination of the ship, officially notified him of the fact. A discussion on the necessity of having a proper quarantine accommodation for those affilcted by the scourge then took place, Dr. Sayres, Dr. Murphy, Mayor Gunther, and Mayor Cleveland, of Jersey City, participating in it; after which, a memorial to the President, soliciting Sandy Hook, or a portion of it, to be traneterred to the Commission, for the purpose of erecting hospitals thereon, was prepared, at & meeting held yesterday, when such a sudden approach of the disease was not anticipated, was taken up and approved. The following is the memorial: To the President of the United States :—The com- mission respectfully represent that they re- penton, concur in the opinion expressed by the Government authorities, inreference to the necessity of establishing proper quarantine regulations in the several ports of the country, to guard, if possible, against the introduction among us from foreign countries of the terrible scourge cholera, We respectfully represent tothe Government that the City of New York, being the great com- mercial emporium of the country, is most lia- ble to receive the first and greatest visitation of this disease; and second, that the most prompt and rigid quarantine skould be enforced here, if by that means the adyent of this disease can be prevented. They further represent that the authorities ot the port of New York are without a proper place to establish a quarantine ground to meet this Anticipated emergency. Their quarantine accomm ions for the reception and care of other quarantinable diseases are only tolerably efficient. But for a disease of this character —_ 2 BiaTi PARRA SR Coe Raloted pould re- ceive US CVETY Offort <andmniwe to recovel This ‘disease above all others of a pestilential cnaracter, requires the most absolute rest for their recovery, and this cannot be obtained on board our floating bospitals. To land them on Long Island, Staten Island, or any other island in the vicinity of the Highlands, would be such as to practically ignore our quaranting restric- tions altogether. In this dilemma, we most earnestly and re- spectfally request the General Government to grant for a temporary quarantine, or so much, or such part thereof, as may be deemed neces- sary, or suitable, now owned and possessed by the Government, situated st Sandy Hook or Lower Bay,—the same to be selected and set apart by some officer of the General Govern- ment, in conjunction with the Commissioners, at the earliest possible moment. This locality, on account of its distance from the city, its remoteness from the great lines of trayel, its facilities for landing the sickly, and its isola- tion, makes it the only suitably place in the harbor of New York t can be effectually used in this anticipated emergency. Dr. Sayres, Mayor Cleveland, and Dr. Mur- phy were then appointed a committee to pro- ceed at once to Washington to present the memorial to the President, with a view to have prompt action taken upon it. The committee leave for Washington this evening. The Commercial eays: A resolution was presented by Dr. Sayre and adopted, inviting medical men and those ac- quainted with the treatment of cholera, to meet with the Commissioners of Health, and give them such advice and information, in regard to the proper sanitary measures, as they may ossessed be pos: of. ‘the floating hospita]-ship Florence Nightin- gale, which has been lying in the Upper Bay, will at once be sent down to the Lower Bay, rg receive the cholera patients from the Ata- Janta. Though the disease has been imported to our shores at this time, we do not think that any especial alarm need be felt at present. As Dr. Snow says, in an article which will be found the first page of this paper, “vessels may haye the cholera on board, and may land the sick on our shores; but the disease will never become epidemic, nor spread among the people until that mysterious atmospheric con- dition is present.” - That “mysterious atmospheric condition” is not present now; how soon it may make its resence known, no human being can tell. It hooves us, however, to prepare immediately for the reception ofthis scourge. Nota day is to be lost. Payne, the Conspirator.

It does not, indeed, give precise accounts of the num« bers attacked, thore that are cured, and those to whom it bas proved fatal; it merely copies An article from the Moniteur du Soir, referri to the measures proposed by the Imperial Gov. ernment with a view to prevent its recur rence hereafter. The Pretects have in their structions drawn up in by the Board Health, which leave nothing to be aoueny and which, in case of need, are the best guide to follow. The same may be said of those drawn up by the Academy of Medicine in 1849, which are a model of precision an@ clearness. Indeed, the counsels with regard to the cholera are reduc d to very simple pre- cepts, dictated as well by common sense as by science, These are scrupulons Personal cleantinees, warm clothing, cleantiness in habitations, re- moval of fith of every kind, ventilation. or- dinary regimen, the usual food, provided it be not prejudicial to health, and the absence of all excess. But what should above all be shunned is the abuse of strong liquors, bad cau de Utes and especially absinthe, tne abuse of which is = Pre Prasad going out into the open air, particularly when the day is cold, moist or foggy, ® warm and aromatic infusion, such ag camomile, light tea, or still better, a little cof. fee. The last, recommended by our military doctors, was of greatservicein Algeria and the Crimea, and is still so to the men employed in. the custom-house service on the coast. This cannot be too highly recommended.” It is a great mistake to suppose that the male ady shows itself all of a sudden. On the con- trary, its approach is indicated, one, twe, even eight days beforehand. There is generally a derangement of the bodily functions more or jess marked, such as diarrhea. The premon- itory symptoms should not be neglected. It should be treated promptly, and stopped, and this will cut short the malady. The most precise observations have been made on this point in France as well as abroad, and particularly in England, where it is made a general system of preservation, The Moniteur repeats the instruction for prop- er treatment in such cases (and which are most simple) already issued in 1654. It cone cludes: “The observance of these precautions, and @ certain tranquility of mind,are the best chances, in the present circumstances of salubrity, cieanliness and relative comfort of our popula- tions, of the public being preserved from the epidemic, and, in case of attack, of arresting its effects.” At the sitting of the Academy of Sciences on Tuesday, M. Costa, the secretary, mentioned that he had received @ mass of letiers announce ing what were called “infallible receipts” for the cholera, more or lees absurd—one, for in- stance, that “the patient should be enveloped in a blanket of new wool, and mace to swal- low the wing of a fowl very hot,” ete. Dr. Bonnafond read a paper on the same sub- ject. He stated that the condition of climate, geology, &c., of a country engendered distinct: maladies. Thus the cholera is peculiar to India, the yeilow fever to America, the miter. mittent fever to Afmeca, and so forth. He did not think that the carcases of the animals sac- Tificed by the pilgrims to Mecca could account for the epidemic. Africa should on these grounds be constantly ravaged; and the plang of La Plata, where thousands cattle were slaughtered, should be likewise infected. He was of opinion that the malady should be come batted in the place of its origin—namely, India, The caw e of itin India is oe i the mud of the rivers, “and it would suffice to modify their regime to avoid the morbid effluvia, The measures which the French Government recently suggested should not be limited to Cairo or Constantinople, but be extended to India.” M. Le Verrier, the well-known astronomer, complained that the time of the Academy was taken up in condemning remedies without in- dicating those which were more capable of ar- xeovime the evil The newspapers published receipts every any which contradicted each tem. What wae = least what should be first done in the absence of the doctor. Ina word, be wanted prositive indications, instead of negative questions. These remarks called up the celebrated sur- geon Dr. Velpeau, who said “M. Le Verner appears desirous that I should answer him. To indicate efficacious remedies is easy to say, but difficult to realize. The cholera is a malady as yet really little known, and which, like other maladies, is oftem cured without remedies. Many maladies, gen tlemen, are cured witbout remedies. The trutt. should be told. In 1639 we tried all the means which are at this day again so much spokem of. In some instances they were successfal; im others they failed. Was if because the patient cured himself slone, or was it the remedy that cured him! We do not know. How man: persons are sure of theirremedy! They spe: of it confidentially, and yet the patient is lost, Itis probable that in the first case he cared himself, and that the remedy did not do much, This does not prevent every one from believing that his own receipt is infallible. Every doce tor, like every other mortal, has his remedy. There is nothing 60 difficult as to indicate remedies where eyery one meddies in the mate ter.” Dr. Valpean then related an anecdote of Louis: XIV. and bis physician, Fagon, exemplifying what he bad just eaid, and continued : “1 am obliged to avow that it is not always in our power to point outan efficacious remedy, The cholera is no doubt caused by the intro= duction of & poison into the organism. If the poisonous element is in small quantity, and the organism is strong, it makes no ravages; if the cont be the case, the danger is real. Also when the patient absorbs what is administered to him, his cure is probable. But sometimes the stomach refuses lo absorb anything, and im this case the recourse should be had toexternak means, which are often insufficient. In a word, the malady almost always commences oy characteristic symptoms, such as premonitory diarrhoea. The preventive treatment is eas: and it is for each person to guard himeclf, Excess of every kind should be carefa avoided, and the rules of salubrity attentively observed. The means of arresting the malady at its outset are very simple. My advice is this—pour from three to four drops of lauda- num on a lump of sugar and swallow it. Re- peat in two hours afterwards, and so on, until the cholic and vomiting pass away. Take also hiv small injections of starch, poppy flowers with 6, 7, 5, or 10 drops of laudanum. This treatment will almost always suffice to's! the diarrhea, and guarantee against the ady.” Tue Breap anp EL Quvuestiox Ovr West.—The St. Paul (Minnesota) Pioneer says that “the fuel question ie not the only one that needs agitation” in that quarter, but that “the present inordinate price of four demandssome attention, and that there is no j ce OF reasom in flour being held at $8 and $8.75 per barre® when wheat is 9 and % cents a bushel, and will soon be lower.” eentat, R IE Svicrpe.—Suicide by hanging was commit« ted on Tuesday night last at Perryville, Ocecil county, Md., by the boss” :mason of eg which is being built by the adeIphia, ilmington and tamore \- road.
