The Indians, how ever cured themselves by a decoction of barks. This story would prove that the introduction of the disease here ia not attributable to the shipping, or the arrival of emigrants, since it has reached a place totally unconnected with either, previous to its appearing in Quebec. Publia attention being every where awakened as to the best means of averting or subduing the > dreadful epidemic now scourging some of the Northern cities, we haw thought it advlmble to copy the subjoined report of a Medical Cesnmis sion sent from Philadelphia to make iaeesUga tious ia relation to the character and progress of . the Cholera in tlan—h 8AXTTARY COMMITTEE. « The following report of the Medical Commis sion appointed to visit Montreal and Quebec, was read, sad ordered to be published.

That they have not been able to aseer ; tain any positive unequivocal fact to justify w I belief that it b a disease eommunk uled by those affected with it, or b ooe of import* j 3d. That during the prevalence of the epi demic constitution or influence, a general predisposition exists in the whole community, from which very Tew bid it id unis are exempt productive of a liability to the disease. 4th. That thb pred» posit km is manifested bv embarrassed and difirult digestion, sense of heat, fullness, uneasiness nr pain in the alnlomen, irregularity of bowels, a furrrd ,ar.d pasty tongue, with frequency of cramps or constrictions In the muscles of the extre mities, especially at night. Sth. That thb stAe of predisposition will not give rise to an attack of the dbeasr, with out Mi*> application iff an exciting cause. Gth. That the exciting causes of the dis ease are moral excitants, especially fear and anger; intemperance in the use of fermented s»nd spirituous liquors, or in eating, overload i "**stomach; acid drinks, or large draughts of cold water » the om of crude indigestible fnod, whether animal or vegetable, partiru Urty the latter ; excessive exertion or fatigue in the bent of the day; exposure to the night air, sitting in rdrrrntx of aw: and particular - If sleeping with too light covering. and with . »hc w be lows raised, except the room* are ve gy small and eonflned. bloat of the attacks occur in the night, from 11 or 13 o'clock to • .1 or 4 m the morning. | "»*> That prudence in living (Wring the j epidemic period, which continues from six | weeks to three months, wearing of flannel.

The delay of ai hour may usher in the coid stage, or perks of caaniiuatcd prostration and collapse, fron wlikh it is almost impossible to resuscitab I expiring energies of the economy. I 11th. That every preparation should Is mad>.- by the public authorities, in antkipa tion of the uppearsnee of the disease, pm vidtng the means of trratnfent for those wb rannut command them, so that aid may b promptly administered to all the moment o attack. These means are a number of smal hospitals, or houses of reception, in vsriou 1 parts of the city ; stations where nurses, phy kirians, and students, with suitable medicine and apparatus, can be procured m tba nigh without delay ; the evacuation of certain kv cal it lev, where the occurrence of nuiueroui eases indicates a pestiferous influence, am the furnishing to the poor, as far as practice* hie, wholesome and nourishing food. By the adoption and observance of tbi foregoing means of precaution and praven tion, in addition to the sanative measures ai ready adopted, the commission are convince* that the prevalence of the disease will t* greatly circumscribed, its mortality diminish ed. and the public guarded against panic an* alarm, the great sources of danger—and uo der the blessings of Divine Providence, th« pestilence will be shorn of its terror* an* mitigated in its destructive fury. 8AMUKI.

Cocar., which have been brought home in pursuance of instruct ions issued by the Navy Depart ment, at the iustanee of the friends of the deceased. The manner in which this gallant officer met bis fate, is thus briefly related in the Norfolk Beacon: Lt. Cocke commanded fhe U.

A short time after the departure of the Fox, four guns were observe d to be fired from the More Castle. No one suspected they were aimed at the friendly schooner, but alas! the result proved that such was the treacherous He«d—the last of which, a At lb. shot, took off the arm of Lieut. Locke and rut his bodv «»two—he expired in eight minutes.” We are gratified to learn that the Locomo tive Steam Engine, constructed by Davis k Gartner, of York, (Penn.) commenced her operations on the Baltimore and Ohio Rail Hoad, under the most favorable auspices, at nine o'clock. It started from the Pratt-street IXpot, for Ellieott's Mills, with the entire tfwin destined for thst place——consisting of /owrtcrw leaded cers, canying, together with the Engine Tender, a gross weight of Jt/m Isfi*. 1 he whole went off in hoc style, aiw was soon out of sight. We have not had any news from the cavalcade since its departure, bet understand that no fears are entertained’ of the abilities of ths Engine to perform the duty which has been laid upon it. A gentle man present says it was out of sight of the Depot in about six minutes, and the rapid gliding of the immense train was one of the most imposing and beautiful spectacles be ever witnessed.—[Hmlt.
