Several cases had appeared, which are said to have all the symptoms of the Asiatic cholera, but in a mild shape. A medical gentleman says that he had two cases of what he calls cholera asphyxia, and that in both cases the patients are likely to recover. The Cholera had also appeared at Trieste, but had greatly diminished at St. Petersburg.
