FELLOW FEVER AND POLITICS. Oreanl-

east the defunct Of ihem-to cast their votes at
the polls.
O~ We are but little astonished to see the
above sacreligious and disgraceful paragraph go
ing the rounds of the Wing press. At time
when the inhabitants of city are suffering un-
der the most disasterous and heart rendng
scourge that ever visited the habitabe Globe
when the good citizens OF that place are daily
offering up sacrifices and prayers to Almighty
God to stay the hand Of vengeance--lvhen
thousands of friends are daily brought to the bed
side of some victim of the epidemic, aud, the
truth brought home to them. that they too must
soon pay the price of created mortality, their
hearts bleeding over departed kindred and their
heads covered and bowed down in sackcIoth and
Eashes--when they cannot turn their eye hther OF
thiiher without its resting upon collins which
contain perhaps the remains of the fathers and
mothers Of poor destitute and frieudless orphans
thrown upon the wide and uncharitable world
without having where 10 lay their heads, ol
wheiewih TO supply the densands Of nature up
ON their empty and shrunken stomachs-when
the heart of the viIest sinner, in Gods name
should be softened towards the distressed and dy-
ing-and v hen there hangs the dark cloud oil
distresses and despair over that once proud city
and the nation, mourning for its inhabitants
have bowed down in humble prayer for the re-
lief of the disiressed-we say that al such time
the editor that could sit down amidst the thick
est of the distress and pen such an article as the
above. which we find copied from the " Orlean
ian.' is as destitute of moral feeling as a rock i
of blood, and in whose breast flows not on'
drop Of the milk of human kindness. The pol
Itician who can become 50 welded TO party
god toeither write ar copy, approvingly, sucl
language as the above paragraph contains, unde
such circumstances, should be taken from amonj
mankind aud transferred to his proper pIace-th
den Of Satan, where his influence would moi b
SO pernicious to society, or his conduct so humil
iating to mankind.
Talk about those who have fallen-many O
