Health of Mrs. Judsox. Letters from Maul main dated April 21, state that the health of Mrs. Judson, so well known and respected as Fanny Forrester" is decidedly better, and that there is every prospect of her speedy recovery. The French minister proposes to furnish Mexico with arms.

Senor Aranjuez, brother of the Mexican minister to France, has been appointed Consul at New York and lias started for that city. Gov. Letcher, of Kentucky, is announced to succeed Hon. Nathan Clifford as minister to Mexico. A Nuisance.

The upper part of the eastern sido of the city has suffered, and is still suffering, from the effects of the scourge. A large portion of this part of the city is inhabited by the poorest class of people, many of whom obtain a livelihood by gathering rags, bones, old shoes, fcc. out of the streets. In some houses, piles of old shoes and decaying bones are found, which, with the exceeding filthy habits of the people, must tend to aggravate the disease and impregnate the air with the most foul and loathsome vapors. These things undoubtedly account in a great measure for the malignancy, if not for the extensive prevalence of the disease in that section of the city.

Arrangements however, have been made to remove one source of disease, namely, the accumulation of bones. Messrs. Fryatt fc Elsworth, who keep a bone factory at Williams burgh, have agreed to purchase daily all the bones that are gathered by these people. New York Courier. We understand that this bone establishment of Messrs.

Fryatt fc Ellsworth is a terrible nuisance, and that the authorities of Williarnsburgh, on seeing the above notice that they were about to aggregate to themselves a great portion of the filth of New York, took measures to abate the nuisance, and prohibit this accumulation of stinking bones. It appealed, however, on inquiry, that the bone factory was not in Williarnsburgh, but just over the line, in Brooklyn. They could, therefore, do nothing; and what they would have done, if the power CHOICE COALS KEJESH FEOM THE MTKES.

With rulers let the people kneel, Performing each their parts, And to tho King of kings reveal, The burden of their hearts While in their dire and pressing need For mercy thoy like Jacob plead. Our public sins like mountains rise For retribution call For these, let tears suffuse our eyes, While fears our heart appall. As patriots let us deeply mourn As christians to our God return. Nor private sins let us forget, While we the past run o'er Filling the soul with deep regret, Let us the Lord adore That with bis judgments, mercies blend, To prove him still our Father, Friend.

The two Generals. Gen. Oudinot and Gen. Bokee are, undoubtedly, the greatest men of the age. The fame of both is immortal.

Both are heroes both conquerors one has subdued the Romans the other has made a sue cessful dash" at the navy yard one enters the gates of San Paola the other the gate at the foot of York street one expedition cost much blood and treasure the other victory was bloodless but cost exactly $250 both exploits were performed in the first year of the reigns of Napoleon the second, and of Old Zack the first. Patriotism demanded both undertakings. Rome contained republicans the navy yard contained ulo cofocoa" both places required purifying, and' both have been purified the Roman republicans have been shot the locofocoes have been beheaded. Gen. Oudinot and his French soldiers possesses the "eternal city Gen.

Bokee and "some of his con stituents" rest gloriously in the navy yard. Long live Gen. Oudinot and Gen. Bokee Gen. Bokee's friends assert that he made "pledges and promises before his election, to some of his constituents.

Like "a man possessing a most generous self sacrificing disposition," he has how faithfully fulfilled every pledge and promise made by him." The purse of 250 generously contributed by "some of his constituents," "to reimburse liis travel ling expenses," cannot "possibly militate, against him." Medals, silver trumpets, gold goblets, pis tols and swords are frequently awarded to heroes patriots and meritorious individuals. VVhy not then reward a "generous, self sacrificing" man with his travelling expenses of $250 Should any one complain of this, he is a grumbling fellow, and no music in his soul. The generous constituents of the Hon. Representative of the navy yard deserve leather medals for their liberality, and the thanks of Old Zack who not a supporter of that infamous system of proscription" The Hon. representative to congress from the navy yard must be happy in the enjoyment of his new honors, and in the performance of his required duties.

For, as secretary Clayton asserts that the departments at Washington have been crowded by a host of expectants of office, never before exceeded." we must admit that that the whigs, individually and collectively, are the most disinterested patriots upon earth. Each and every one is extremely anxious to serve his country by holding some office having the odor of the loaves and fishes. This is delightful and how proud must an honorable representative be to have a legion of such men pulling at his coat tail for as constituents! The old doctrine of representing the whole of a constituency is exploded with the forms of practice and pleadings under the old constitution. A representative of congress is now required to look after the interests of some of his constituents" only; which simply means getting situations for them in the navy yard and custom house. This done, his fame becomes embalmed for life and, afterwards.

To be sure, the disappointed office seekers will rave and grumble a little, but a few occa sional pickings from the corporation and a sinecure now and then, will make them as quiet and contented as hired mourners at a rich man's funeral. G. Mortality di New Yoek. The deatlis in New York for the past week have diminished very little. The number for the preceding week was 1409.

For this last week 1353 decrease 57. Of the deaths 692 were of cholera, against 299 in the daily reports. It appears, therefore, that with all the stringent regulations on this subject not quite, half the deaths are reported. The mortality appears to be very great among children. Of the deaths 446, or about one third, were children under 5 years old.

Another curious fact is that 656, or about one half of those that have fallen, are foreigners. The Erjglish have recently made a settlement at Aden, near the Red sea.

We trust that they will not shun the responsibility. It is evident, by every day's report from the health officer, that the cholera clings to the places infected with filth and de composition. On Saturday nearly all the deaths in this city were in the Sixth ward, about Blake's Buildings, and in the region which we have so often pointed out as demanding the attention of the au thorities yet nothing has been done, or at any rate, effectually done, and death is permitted to march through with his scythe, and mow down the residents of these filthy districts, while the rest of our city is comparatively secure. But the effects of this bone mill are felt chiefly in Williarnsburgh and this fact, if no other, should, we think, stir up our government to action.

The people there have no remedy but in the justice and prompt action of our Sanitary committee. Treatment of Cholera. The friend who hands us the following article for publication is personally acquainted with Dr. Curtin and assures us that he is a man of the highest reputation in his pro fession and that his statement i3 fully worty of credit. The article is taken from an Irish paper; the Cork Examiner.

Sir I beg leave to request your indulgence in placing before your numerous readers the following statement of a case of Asiatic Cholera, which has been under my care. The patient wa3 attacked about twelve o'clock at night. In the course of a few hours the following symptoms presented namely, collapse, or total cessation of the heart's action, and of the general functions of the organism constant jactitation of the body from side to sine a black colour of the entire skin the most pitiful cries resulting from pain in the region of the heart and bowels and an anxious desire for air to relieve the sufferings of oppression. My first vist had not been until collapse had existed from four to six hours it continued up to thirty hours, and so exhausted was the patient that the friends were impressed with the belief that the vital spark had been extinguished, as for a short time there had been a total cessation of respiration. This last function was quickly restored by the free application of towels saturated with cold water to the chest and surface of the body.

The patient is now convalescent, and will be able to leave the bed this day or to morrow. There is no consecutive fever, and the appetite is steadily progressing. The treatment was simple, safe, and effectual It consisted in the plentiful use of water internally and externally half a pint to a pint of new milk every hour, and a solution of common salt in water to the strength of an ounce of salt to a pint of water. A wine glass of this mixtue was given every five minutes, until vomiting was fully established. When the vomiting takes place, the discharge from the bowels is almost instantaneously stopped.

It is the exhaustion arising from the bowel discharge which induces collapse, and if not arrested, will eventually terminate in death. Tins treatment will prove successful in ninety out of a hundred cases at any stage of the disease, and will never fail if used in the commencement. The cases that were under my care during the present visitation were all treated under this system: have not found it fail, and I am fully convinced that, under the aid of Providence, the adoption of this system would be tne means oj saving thousands from a painful and premature death. I am, Sir, respectfully yours, TIMOTHY CURTIN, M. D.

King July 11th, 1849. The Last of Earth." The Irish have been somewhat grievous sufferers by the prevailing div ease, as might be expected from the mode of life of vast numbers ot them, their poor accommodations, improper diet, and exposure. Three or four miles east of Williarnsburgh there is a Roman Catholic Cemetery, where great numbers of them are interred. The grounds occupy about three acres. They have been used for interments about two years.

Already the whole space is occupied with graves yet bodies are still interred there in great numbers. The grave diggers told him that for the last two months there had been an average of more than 100 interments a day. During an hour and a half that he remained there 25 bodies were brought in and interred. The graves are dug about eight feet deep, and several coffins are piled above each other, with a layer of earth between the upper coffin being within three feet of the surface. The fees are very high, viz.

ten dollars for a erave guaranteed not to be disturbed; seven for one with the possibility ot disturbance two for an infant, and in proportion for older children. The chances of continuance, even for those in whose behalf ten dollars have been paid, our informant thinks, are very slight, if what he Baw is to be taken as a specimen. A grave had to be made for somefperson recently dead and the ground being too full jto allow the sexton's man to conveniently select uncut earth, he thrust his spade into a grave which had received an occupant so recently as last December while, as a preliminary, he removed from the head the memorial that some lamenting relative had, no doubt, erected there, in the fond hope of its being allowed to remain. The three acres of ground must be exceedinelv productive to somebody, as the fees for 100 bodies at an average of S7 each would be $700 a day. Our informant supposes that bodies are interred there not not only from that city but from Brooklyn and slsewhere.

A gentleman residing in Dolancy st. one day last week went to his shop to attend to his business, leaving his family at home in good nuaiui anu wen provided lor. unrig the morning a woman residing on the opposite side the street sickened with the Cholera and died in three hours thereafter. During the afternoon the gentleman received a note from his wife, informing him that she had removed to Williarnsburgh.

Scarcely crediting the story, he proceeded to his house in Delancy and to his astonishment found every thing removed and the house emntv. Iis become so alarmed in conseauence of a nerson liv ing in thr neighborhood with the cholera, that she immediately proceeded to Williarnsburgh, and hired another liouso, and in a few short hours the whole of her furniture was transferred to her new residence. The effect of this fear upon the mind of the lady, has indeed been most unhappy, as we hear that she was taken sick immediately after 1 ward, and hj not yet recovered. May our fond prayers prevail, His tender sympathis to move, To creatures fallen, frail; That o'er our free and vast domain, The pestilence no more may reign.
