THE YELLOW FEVER ON BOARD THE WILST INDIA
MAIL Sreanrits.—Dr. Magens. a Danish physician in the
island of St. Thomas, in the West Indies, in writing about
the yellow fever on board the Royal Mail steamers, attri-
butes the prevalence of that disease on board those ships
to the Mail Company discharging their crews at South•
ampton, and manning their ships every voya;e with new
hands. He says it has been noticed that lately the crews
of the British Atlantic Mail steamers are very different
from the hands this large company used to send out to the
nimenwiothf echyeceakiirsan' staanyderymg.antdyezerdnroenba:ce
West Indies. Now, the majority of the deck-men appear
red
lb
uncoi
Ttan°;b:gstemoseftre as if they had been caught at the last
moment in the fields or lanes near Southampton—in fact
they seem to have beer ill-fed and ill-chid raw bands,
therefore, they are ready food for fever when it is epi•
aerate throughout the It est Indies. The doctor recom-
mends that after the Atlantic ships have transferred their
passengers and cargo from Ragland to the intercolonial
ships they should steam outside the harbour, and remain at
anchor for a day or two, to rest the crew and purify the ship
with fresh air after having had so many passengers on board;
then to coal as quickly as possible at the wharf, without
any coal vessels alongside to stop the free breeze ; to steam
away from the wharf each afternoon at five o'clock ; to
anchor outside, and steam back to the coal wharf at seven
o'clock next morning.
HOTEL AND TAVERN KEEPERS' PROVIDENT IN-
irrtrtrwos.—The annual general meeting of the subscri-
bers to this institution was held yesterday afternoon, at
the Craven Hotel, Craven-street, Strand; Mr. R. Clarke,
one of the trustees, in the chair. The committee, in
theirreport, stated that during four months in the past
year the recipients had been placed upon half payments,
and unless annual subscriptions increased the same course
must be again adopted- The committee were powerless
in the matter; they had only to obey the law as laid
down in the rules and regulations, in which it was enacted
that, until the permanent fund amounted to 10,0001.,
all donations, legacies, fines, and any annual surplus,
should he added to the capital, which should in no OW
be reduced below that sum. The financial statement
showed an actual deficiency of 91. 3s. &I. to the end of the
year 1r66. The number of recipients on the list at the
present time was twenty•five, whose united contributions
to the funds amounted to 320/.135. 6d. Those bad received
relief to the amount of 2,312/. 17s. The report
wag formally adopted, and after a vote of thanks to the
honorary officers, and the election of new members on the
committee, the proceedings terminated.
