FEVER IN HULL.
(From the Hull Advertiser.)
'hying noticed the ravages of the famine fever,
which has in other places spread from the distressed
Irish among all classes, we have, since its first ap-
pearance in this town, devoted to it that attention
which a most grievous calamity in embryo deserves.
During the past week we have been peculiarly careful
in ascertaining its precise character and extent, and
the character and extent of the remedies and preven-
tives which have been suggested and adopted against it.
It is known, in technical phrase, as the epidemic
gastic fever, and its symptoms are tenderness at the
pit of the stomach, accompanied with severe pain in
the head, a sympathetic and secondary result of the
affection of the stomach. Its origin is starvation. It
is anything but malignant, and would rarely prove fatal
were the proper medical treatment promptly applied,
and a supply of nourishing food afforded. In one in-
stance which has come under our notice during the
past week, it has been accompanied with delirium, and
in some three or four others with death. An instance
of death from fever of a typhoid character occurred in
the person of an Irish inmate of the gaol, on Satur-
day last, but it is altogether an exception to those of
which we are speaking. We were informed yester-
day by the Rev. Joseph Render, whose zeal in the
service of these poor creatures is beyond all praise,
that in one of the houses in Smith's-court, between
Middle-street and West-street, a poor woman, whilst
in this fever, had been prematurely confined, and that
when he visited her she was laid in one corner of the
room in a dying state, her child dead on the floor at a
little distance, and her husband extremely ill in ano-
ther corner of the room. Both these parties are since
dead. Three of their children were subsequently at-
tacked by the fever, but, under the care of Mr. Day
parochial surgeon, are now recovering. Another fe•
male has died in it at No. 9, Middle-street.

The resident surgeon in the Infirmary informs us
that there have been five cases of this fever in that
institution during the week, and that they are all
going on favourably. The resident surgeon of the
Dispensary says, that between twenty and thirty new
cases have come under treatment in that institution
during the past week, and that all which have been
brought under the notice of the medical officers at an
early stage are out of danger. There are four cases
in the vagrant-office, but none of them are remarkable.
We proceed to state the measures which have been
adopted in order to limit the spread of the fever, and,
if possible, to save the town altogether from its ra-
vages. And, in the outset, it is requisite to observe
that the town is greatly indebted to the worshipful
the mayor, and T. W. Palmer, Esq., justice of the
peace, for the strenuous efforts they have made in
bringing the subject before the proper authorities,
and also to those authorities, for the prompt regard
they have manifested in their measures for the preser-
vation of the public health. Messrs. Jalland and
Palmer presented to the governor of the poor the
earliest information they received concerning the
fever, with the request that be would meet it in the
most effectual manner practicable:
Mr. Drant communicated with the guardians for
Sculcoates on the expediency of the joint establish-
ment of a fever hospital. The latter parties hay ing
extended their sick wards and increased the number
of their baths, in anticipation of a larger number of
sick paupers, thought it prudent to decline co-
operating with the guardians of the Hull Workhouse
in the manner proposed. Mr. Drant then converted
the vagrant-office into a temporary fever hospital,
and subsequently the commodious building on the
Humber bank, formerly occupied by the pauper
children.
The mayor 'stated in the Police Court, on Saturday
and Tuesday last, that he had been informed of these
judicious proceedings by the chairmen of the respective
boards of guardians. Mr. Palmer wrote to the go-
vernor and guardians of the poor of Hull, on Monday,
stating a case which had that day come under his
notice as a magistrate, of a man going from house to
house begging, who was the father of a family of five
children, all in the fever. In that letter he wisely
suggests that " all Irish vagrants, on entering the
town should ibe stopped by the police, examined by
a medical man, and, if necessary, sent to a fever
hospital ;" and that " the walls of each room in Mill-
street, and all others similarly tenanted, should be
washed with lime, the windows made to open at the
top, and this done at the parish expense forthwith."
The success which has hitherto attended the means
exercised on behalf of the afflicted objects of the
fever is highly encouraging, and leave us room to
regret nothing except that the means could not unfor-
tunately have been put into operation earlier, and so
have saved the lives of those who have become ita
victims. In the majority of instances, when the
fever has attacked one member of a family, the rest
have not escaped, as they doubtless might have done,
had the invalid been removed, at the outset of his
attack, to such receptacles as are now provided. All
needful precautions are now being taken ; those who
have taken those precautions, I repeat, are worthy
of all praise, and there is now nothing to fear, unless
the hot weather, which, along with the season of ripe
fruit, may be shortly expected, should alter the na-
ture of the fever.

Nightingale, and contradicting the statement made by
some of the Scandinavian journals, that she is to re-

the silvery notes she warbles forth during the present
season. The real amount is given in the letter as 2,0001.

cotoFwuALyt OINTMENT RIING's EVIL,
AND Pius.— Persons afflicted with this
dreadful disease cannot make use of any remedy so efficacious,
soothing, and healing, as these incomparable medicines. The cures
that are constantly performed by them throughout the world in cases
of scrofula, scurvy, lepra, ringworm, scald head, and every variety
1
of skin diseases, are truly astounding. Cancers, bad breasts,
tumours, and obstinate wounds, speedily yield to the united powers
of Holloway's Ointment and Pills. Therefore, let no case, however
desperate, be despaired of, for these sovereign remedies have been
pre-eminent in curing many, after the most skilful medical science
bad failed. Sold by all druggists, and at Professor lin:lrgraty's
