J Scarlet Fever- How to Cnre it
It always begins with loss of appetite; then
fever and sore throat; then red patches; the re-
covery,' or otherw'si nutckor slow death, accord
inr to circuipstanccs. ri To arrest Its course, and
to prevenfits hivaes, jrucdicincs and manipula
tinn!f? fifji'finA hate been tried in vaiu; for more
children die of .scat let fever now than one hun
dred years norol lint whv? Uecaiise that ' noth
inp is as yet known as to what scarlet fever is;
audi what is stjll vforse, there was!, until recent
ly, no need feU of such knowledge. It is as un
necessary for a jchild to die of scarlet fever its it
is that itshonjil be blind with cataract. Jet lis
seel At any time; before the body has finished
its ineffectual strojirfrle we are able toTielp it, not
by wonderful uiiedieincs, brtt by the - knowledge
o anatomy and th4ipplicatjon of comntoti sense
Wcconsnlt th sympaThetio jnerveTand do what
it i cpuimands us to do.i We mnst jrive' . this
child salt, when! it wants it; we must p-ive it acid
when it has fever, and anxiously craves for it-
no vinejrar. but lemon juice, because the first
coagulates albiimcn. the latter does nott on ac
count of the surplus of oxye which it contains.
To mutate t lie jsoof.hmp: unicous in the intestines
which is now waiitiur, and toS jriye some respir
atory food at t lie siune time, we add some: gu in.
arahtc. To restore and relieve the f njured nerve
wc: apply moisE J warmth.' In pi act ice. we can
fulfiljl all this with he' I follw;iiir manipulations:
Undress the child, aud brinj; it to bed at the
first' jsirn.of sii-jLtuss. flive it . if it already has
fever, nolhinjr Jiit jpourish warm letiwmade. with
some ru m arable I it it. j Then! cover its abdomen
with dry flannel Take a well folded bed sheet,
and ut it in WuTinjr hot water; wrinr it. .out dry
by uieans of dry ttiwtds. and put this over the
flannel on the Child's abdomen. 1 hen cover the
whole, and wait. jThe hof cloth will, perhaps,
require repeated heat, i According to the sever
ity, of the c;iss -and its stages j of progress,
perspiration will commence in-the child in frtm
ten minutes to;. "two hours. The child is then
saved; it soon j falls to slecpl Suon after 'the
child awakes it, shows slight symptim'S of return-'
$ it will not catcii th disorder if puff to bed with
siekrchild. Thi is still more startling, but
(nothing is easier pf proof.'! ThPame is also true

Cotton Cultivation i the'Cfntrnl lroviactp
' I 'ttice E sties' f Plant. ' ' ; :.L,.
From th CalcuttaEnglisliman, March 8.
. So rapid ias been th e ex tension of cot ton cub
tivation in this country that the latest retarns
from the lioard of jTrade in England show that
more cotton lias been imported ' from India do
ring the past year than from her preat rival
America. -s From America 1,035,811 bales were
imported, and from j India L490.674. The
American bales are heavier than the Indian, but.
if equalized, the. result is -Still in faTor of India
by about 200,00(1 bales.! Another favorable
feature in the return for Indian cotton is, that
a much larger quantity of U is used on the Con
tinent ofKurope. and the demand for this mar
ket maylaioNt de iid to be io - its" infancy.
According to the Iatestl returns, however, frooc
the central provinces, ihe cptton crop of the pre
sent; season from thai part f, the country is
t:l.l.. .' ! i. u: .1. i. j ;i . i-.. ! . i j . -l I

The increasld Pof.h
irovinces-f-nirly double that of the
western !province8--ne.irly
previous year rmay Injlp to make up tbe bulk of
the crop to the 'same quantity as j last year, but
the best
central
I mdian coitotj is ihe produce of the
provinces.
aud a deteriora'i m in itis
quality is likely to jprejudice the other descrip
tions1 of Indian cottoii Thb cidtou prop in the
central irovioces: has suffered durinir the nast
yearfrom seveial causes damp rain, red fly and

color and knocked )lt the blossoms. - More rain

fullowed.at the begin lung of the year and again
on the ltth of J.-iiiusiryL which further increased
the damage already done. II Duringthe: damp
weather the .process of cotton ;: 'cleaning, is also
stopped, and by ths delay- the color is injured.
In many parts the cultivators estimate the loss
of the crop at fifty jpeij cent., but Mr. Kivett
Ca mac-is inclined fo tadce a iniore favorable view
of the out-turn. The cultivators, he says, spread
those r -ports

and as this is
genendlythe case towards the close; of the season
it arcounts for the quajitity already sent to' mar-

175 I in 1 809. Altl.ofigh there trtay be some
force' in flr. ("ariia'8 irguilient, iit appears just
as probalde that the deficiency iri th crop has
had as great tin effeel us. the desire for high
jirices, fir thojrefunis fromaIl the. districts are
unfavorable, and Mr'. Oiruac; will not venture to
give ah estimatie of th'i jrob:ble out-turn. What
the borer is to the cofftje planterand the shen.knj
poka to the rice growe. theibolt : wormiappear
to be to the cotton grower. It prefers corn, but
if corn isf not 'availably. It attarjks the cotton
and as the corn . cnp js generalliyr carried before
tlio'; j cof tinii crop, it' ilways hjjs jto fill back
on the laiter'. I Like tlce borer and :sheuka pokaj,
ir is , als extremely difficult to get rid of- in.
fact, the Oulf remedy sjugge-ted jappears to be to
let the land lie idle fo- year, jexposcd to the
sun and rain, which destroy fhe" eggs. ; Another
peculiarity Inf.. the woniis that in a wet season
it attacks the indigeiems plants, nud in a 'dry
season the exotic, varieties, as each dcsenption
