"Priort to his departure he had slight

who, waving etiquette, agreed to visit him,
and appointed a time for the interview, but
failed to keep his appointment; whcreupon
Mr.. King reminded him of the circumstance,
and General Canrdo immediately called,
but was refused admittance. Before Mr.
King left for Matanzas, however, cards were
intcrchanged, thus settling The difficulty.

There never was an epidemic of this
disease in any of our ports having no
communication either with intertropi-
cal ports, or with ports in which the dis
ease had been introduced. To render
this apparent, LET US note the instances
of the occurrence of yellow fever in
New York, Philadelphia and Charleston
respectively, during the last hundred
and fifty years, as we find them stated
at length In the authorities already re-
ferred to. 1t will be seen that when
ever the commerce of these cities with
the West Indies was uninterrupted, the
disease was constantly among them,
and that the effect of those restrictions
and suspensions of this commerce which
occasionally occurred during this period
was TO prevent the appearance of the
disease in their midst
During this lapse of time the cities
of New York. Philadelphia and Charles
ton have not been equally subject to
visitations of yellow fever. For long
periods they have been almost annually
subject to this disease and then again,
during long spaces of time they have
escaped such visitations. These alter
nations of exemption and of liability
were the results of the laws or treaties
which protected or discouraged, or the
wars which Frustrated, the commerce
of these cities.
As early as 1860, the domestic and
foreign commerce of the North Ameri-
can colonies became so extensive. and
competed SO successfully with that of
England, as TO excite the jealousy of
that nation, and to originate the od.ous
navigation act of that year, the object
OF which was 10 secEre the monopoly
of the trade Of the colouies 10 the mo-
ther country. In spite of this act, a
trade sprang mp about the beginning of
the eighteenth century. between the
colonies and the British West Indies.
the former sending lumber. slaves. fish.
flour, corn and rice, in exchange for the
sugar, molasses and rum of the latter
Scarcel y was this trade established
when the yellow fever began TO make
It's appearance in the commercial cities
of the British colonies. Previous TO 1924
there were two epidemics in Charleston
By the year l740 yellow fever was in
troduced there frequently, and finally
almost annually. The influence of this
trade on Philadelphia, in introducing
yellow fever there, began to appear in
1882. Subsequently epidenics of that
disease became almost as frequent at
that city as at Charleston. New York
began its trade with the West Indies a,
a later period than the former cities,
and was for some time less subject to
the visitations of yellow fever.
Each of these cities existed many
years before case Of yellow fever oc-
cnrred among them. 1t was only after
the commencement Of this commerce
with the West Indies that they became
subject to the disease
ITO be continued
