The tint ariiclc Nl.ish apIeaTd in the Register
stated that the students 81 the institute, and me-
ny ef i.s Gibson hal lril lIillhoTuurh IN cose-
.lucnce II this disease. II was true that some Of
tue siudenis had sil but not one u Tire citizens
had leil To our knowie,lse from this cause. 4
gentleman II this place passed through Ralrigh on
hi. way ii Wilmington on huslness; hut he would
have been the Ia, man in the place To leave le-
cause Vi the exisicnre Of small Iox. And 81, too.
the EDITOR Of ilr star published a report stating
that a rase bad occurred out Of Mr.. Turner'S IA.
lnily, which is entirely a mistake. The question
NAV b. asked, well. what harm has il done
These articles have hron extensively copied, and
they serve 10 keep up tie excitement aud alarm
and lhc ciiiarns ii Hill.borough are .utieTing in
convenience from IT. Our citizens are fed and
warmed by our country friends; and 81 long a'
their feaes are operated on, orr supplies are eu
en;-an evil VI which our Raleigh friends ma!
have had some experience about yea ago.
These remarks are made 10 all kindness; aus
wp trust that they are consistent wnh our who''
course as mn editor While we are careful ahOu
publishing reports that would proluce unncesSsa
" alarm, we think it duty To publish the fact
in the matter; and we have. therefore, kept on
readers regularly informed in this particular w
wish no conccaluicni; and should laathe our
selves il We could find it in our nature to practic
deception in such a matter
The last Grcenshoroush Patriot, we see, no'icc
false yumor Of the existence Of Small Pox
that place, No ease has occurred there, and III
Patriot saws that GrccnsbOrough never was healIl
Ter than il is now, and has been for some tim
past. We never heard the rumor noticed by II
Patriot; bu, we did hear ono to the effect that II
Small Pox was in Raleigh, and We soon lcarl
,ha, il was false, to our great qualification.
The thFcc cases Of Yarioloid mentioned in OF
last, we are glad TO state, have nearly rrcevere
Mrs. James Turner. who had been called In
nurse her siacr-in.law, has also had slight d
tack Of the varioloid, but Is now convalescer
No case has get occurred ou' Of .hr. Turner'S !
niiy, and none is apprehended.
