Petersburg. Olisial returns as to the number
of cases have altogether ceased of late ; but from
the large sums voted by the metropolitan authori-
"lies, or supplied by government, some idea may be
formed of the extent and virulence of the malady.
Besides 200,000 roubles contributed by the Trea-
sury, 400 additional beds have been placed at the
disposal of the town, and large subscriptions made
by the princes and aristocracy. The town, too,
has opened a new hospital at the cost of 60,000
roubles, considerably augmenting at the mime time
the funds of the various charities, and aiding the
convents in the care and reception of the sick.
The malady is stated to have broken out originally
on the other side of the Ural mountains, whence it
slowly threaded its way towards Bt. Petersburg, it-
creasing as it went, and culminating at length among
the destitute classes of an unhealthy and densely
populated capital. In its steady advance towards
the west it has now reached the Prussian frontier,
and, in a milder form, already shown itself in the
towns of Konigsberg, Dantsic, and Glumbinnen. In
the Waldai hills, to the south-west of Bt. Peters-
burg, whole villages are said to have been depopu-
lated.
