One iniant. was hr.thtlat in with its mother, and
died there, but is not brought. into the account. One
otber death was that of Bridget Carty, a stranger,
brought trom a field near Benriet's.bridge, where she
hod lain three days, being refused admission into any
Imulie on account of -sickness. In her case, from in-
attention and exposure, the disease had assumed a
verp.snalignant character. She was received on Sun-
day last, and died the next morning. Another was
that of John *Daiwa, who had been lying io the
same neglected stale some days near Three Castle-.
He died last Sunday, having been. eight days in the
house. The case of Mary Kelly. now in the bathe,
is singularly distressing. She, her husband, and seven
children, lived in a wretched hovel on the Waterford
road. One of their daughters had been a patient in
the house, but discharged convalescent. The mother,
however, took the disease, and whilst tHe messengers
were on the way to carry her to the hospital, the
hovel was-burnt down accidentally, by which all their
clothes and other things were consumed, and the poor
woman had scarcely a rag of linen upon her when
brought into the House of Recovery. The fever has
net yet found its way into the City. The cases are
all from the country or suburbs, and are generally of
a mild character.
After we had finished our preparations for the pens
last night, we were called upon to witness a scene as
distressing as novel—three poor strange men, lying
on Patrick-street, in high fever. One of them, a fine
young fellow, was particularly ill. The pulse of
another was 112. The third was not quite so far
gone; and, atter some time. he got up and wandered
away. The two former ware sent to the Fever House,
although the Hospital is already more than crowded.
They were poor men from a distance, seeking for
harvest work, and abandoned by their fellow-crea-
tures, on account of poverty and sickness, to the
mercy of Hum'. How thankful ought we to be
that the weather 1101/1 presents a powerful check to
this banetul disease I.—lrdiatas Moderator.

fact is an instance: —His Grace observed for some
days a middle aged man, in a *silicify dress, the lace
tat which was much tarnished; and the cloth worn
thre.dbare, appear it a certain hour in the Mall of

that he had desired the favour of his company to,
