pensioners arrived in Woolwich garrison, preparatory to

enlbarking for hospital service in Turkey. They have beenorganized into four companies.

HOSPITALS IN CANDIA.—There is no truth in the reportwhich has appeared in some of the papers to the enect thatColonel Rose, so well known for the important part taken byhim at the commencement of the Eastern question, has leftConstantinople for Canclia, to organize the hospitals in thatisland.THE WEATHER AT GALLIPOLL—The weather is very severe

THE CHOLERA.

The cholera, which has exhibited a gradual diminution, hasnow, there is every reason to hope, disappeared from Leeds.THE members of the Darlington Board of Health have e

resolved, (in anticipation of the return of cholera,) to recom-mence the house-to-house visitation, which was found to beso beneficial during the presence of the epidemic last year.

EDINBURCH.—The Edinburgh journals announce that cholera,has returned to the above city, after an absence of a few months.Four undoubted cases have been reported to the parochialauthorities within a week; and, what is remarkable, it hasactually commenced its ravages this time, in the same tenementwhere it first made its appearance in the year 1832..

GLASGOW.—The cholera has made its reappearance in Glas-gow. Twenty-one new cases, and thirteen deaths have oc-curred within the last fortnight.JonNSTON, near Glasgow, has just been attached by cholera.

Three medical men have been appointed by the Board of Healthsince the first visitation, and every exertion has been made toabate infections nuisances. Out of fifty-one cases since the 11 tllof April, there have been eleven recoveries, twenty-eightdeaths, and twelve still remain under treatment. Threemedical students were also engaged in house-to-house visitation,and it is hoped that the most virulent character of the diseasehas passed over.DISAPPEARANCE OF CHOLERA IN LIMERICK.—The epidemic

has so far decreased in the city, as to enable the committee todispense with the services of Dr. Elmes, who was most constantand assiduous in his attendance on the patients, as also tureduce the number of nurses in the hospital to two. In fact,the disease has altogether disappeared from the city, but it wasdeemed more prudent for a short time at least to keep thehospital still open, and to retain the services of Dr. Brodie,who has contributed by his professional skill and experience,to arrest the progress of the disease.THE Swedish government have just declared that not only

Hull, but London, is infected with cholera, and the whole ofthe British ports "suspected."SURREY DISPENSARY.SURREY DISPENSARY.—Last week the anniversary of the

charity was celebrated at the London Bridge Tavern, W. J.Evelyn, Esq., 11. P. presiding. Dr. Aldis read the report.from which it appeared, that the Dispensary was established.in 1789, amidst a population of 300,000 ; and that it mainlydepended for support upon voluntary aid. During the year,5883 patients had been admitted; of whom 5172 were cured,970 were visited at their homes, 584 were midwifery cases,and 520 remained under treatment. At the close of theevening’s festivities, donations and suberiptions amounting to£523 were announced.
