 A letter from Dr. Bronson, of this city, to the Mayor, dated Laprairie, June 24th, says;

 z have come over from Montreal to this place, in consequence of the ces- satioa o( the cholera there. Laprairle has population of 2500. One physi- clan has had here 42 cases of cholera, and 20 deaths. There have probably been 60 eases in the village. The dis ease had been. on the increase here for two CT three days. l shall probably go to St.Johns this evening.

 A letter from Montreal, addressed to 4 gentleman at KeesevilIes states the number of cases of cholera, down 10 "Wednesday, 20tsl June, 3ll2, and the deaths at 996. It adds, that every pbysicianin the city had been attacked, but that only one died; and that the Montreal board of health offered Doet.

 Nc arc most happy 10 tell you, that the cholera seems almost entirely to have deserted Quebec and this city. 1 oIl1 ilO8 <tilu VI VI tlre however, are severe; but if seems to be branching off in all directions over the country, and into the upper proVin- ees, as welIwhere emigFants goas where they do not go; and in many places in the country where it has broken out, there seems the same severity and fa- tality as was experienced at Quebec and here at first. We cannot believe,

 from our own observation, and from the opinion of fmedical gentlemen here, that Ethis terrible disease is contagious; but it rather appears to us, that there is something in the atmosphere which pro

 duees the disorder. If this opinion is

 correct, all your cxertions and precau-

 tions to keep away emigrants or others

 from infected places, will be labor lost Istill, the praiseworthy exertions that

 appear to be making all over the coun- try, by cleansing and purifying, recon

 mending temperance and cheerfulncss.

 will no doubt do much good, provided it should please the Almighty to visit you with this terrible judgement, which

 we pray in ills mercy lae may not do.
