SHIP FEvER.-The ST. Louis Republican Of
the 18th says " On the arrival of the Constitution
at this port as already stated, the Mayor directed
the removal of the sick to the City Hospital.
This was done, and we learn from DR.. MoMartin,
the Health Officer, that all but one of them will
recover. DR.. MeMartin is also clearly of opinion
that the disease under which they have been suffer-
ing is not cholera, but ship, or typhus fever We
are glad to hear this but in either case the Mayor
and Board Of Health should perform the duty
which the ordinance imposes on them, of taking
every precautOn preserve the health of the city.

rFLACIDE'S YARIETEs.--We went Yesterday to
see the progress they were making in the new
Theatre on Grayer street, and were pleased to see
that the building is in such state OF forwardness
as TO allow of the opening of the house in a few
days. Although the scaflolding necessary for the
decoration of the dome is not yet removed and the
gliding Of the open ron-worS in front of the boxes
is hardly commenced, it is easy to imagine how
pleasing will be the effect of the arrangements and
decorations OF the house when they are complete
The general construction Of the room is very eIe-
CANT and exeellently fitted for the representations
which are intended to be given in it, 1t is difficult
in a small theatre to avoid the heavy appearance
which is apt to result from too slavsh an imitation
of the arrangement Of larger houses but the archi-
tect of Mr.. Plaoide's building has succeeded admit
rably in giving it the gAtness and airiness so re-
quisie in room OF the proportions of the Varieties
So much taste has been shown in the construction
of Mr. Placde's theatre, that we look forward to
the opening night in expe, tatioh of seeing repre-
sentation equal to the decorations of the house :;
and we can only say that if the manager has shown
as much discrimination in the selection of his com
pany as he has in the material arrangements of his
theatre, his exhibitions will form an era in the his
tory of the New Orleans stage

10 John Fl. LumPkin on behalf of the Tenn
perance Associations OF Georgia, has revoked their
invitation to Father Mathew to visit that State.
The reason given for this course is, that Father
Mathew signed, with Daniel O'Gonnell that ia
nous anti-savery document which brought upon
the Liberator himself so many feproaches from
lrishmen in this country for abolition intolerance
and pragmatic interference with the domestic ques-
tons of the Southern States Mr.. Lumpkin had
aPreliminary correspondence with Father Mathew,
which failed in the first instance to obtain any mo
diieation or definite assertion OF opinion, and in
the second obtained no answer at ALL So it is not
probable that Georgia viii have the benefit of Fa-
Their Mathews appeals in behalf of good morals

u The Boston Daily Republican, the Freesoil
organ OF Boston, has been discontinued. The
paper is continued tri-weekly and weekly. Want
Of support is the very reasonable cause assigned.

never could comprehend why Freesoil-par was
need at all in Massachusetts, where there is no
considerable number who do not avog the strongest
FreesoiI opinions.
