SICKNESS IN M0BLE.-The total number of
deaths in Mobile for the month ending on the
Both ult. was 1859, Of which 1872 were from yell
low fever. The Advertiser Of the 1st inst, in
reference to this subject, says:
The only true test of the severity of the
epidemic is to be found in the total noumber of
deaths, as undoubtedly the most of those cases
reported as unknown" and included under
the head of other causes,'' have died Of vel
low fever.
1t will thus appear that in the course Of two
months there have been about eleven hundred
deaths, out Of an actual population which can
hardly be estimated at more than eleven thou
sand-a literal defamation Surprising only
one-ffth Of the sick to haye died, there must
have been in the city $500 cases, being about
half Of the resident population.
The Register Of the same date remarks:
Some medical men seem suddenly sanguine !;
we hope they may find their opinions carried
out. Others are more reserved We wish with
the former, but think with the latter An in
fiux of fresh material would be most likely to
rekindle the flame. Those now passing away
were among the most active in staying the pes
thence with others. Peace to their ashes. They
deserved we'll Of their fellow-men.

a NOBEL Treasury Quesfion.--A question
has come up in the Treasury Department as 10
the right Of Q soldier who has been dishonorably
discharged, to receive the travelling pay which
would have undoubtedly been his right had he
left the service honorably. The Second Comp
troller has decided that dishonorable discharge
is "by way Of punishment for an offence" and
that being such, the laws Of January 20, 1918,
and June 10, le46, expressly withhold such pay
from him.
The Chinese Mission was certainly rendered

The PRorEs1s OF ENGLAND AND FRANcE.--
The New York Express learns from a person
said to be in close communion with those who
know what Is going on at the Capital. that the
statement in regard to the circumstances of
France and England, touching Capt. Ingraham
and Costa, is true The Express says
Mr. Champion. the British Minister, was the
first to call on Mr.. Marcy. M. Sartires had
his instructions some time since to call on the
Secretary Of State. These instructions were
very specific and pointed, but their delivery in
person was delayed until Thursday, the 22d
inst owing to the absence of the French Minis
ter at Newport until Wednesday evening, when
be returned to the Capital. The Government
knew that these instructions were to come from
France, and had been 90 informed specifically
some time since. The remonstrance il in terms

Of the law Of nations.
Mr. Marcy has had his reply ready for some
time, but it has to undergo some notifications
Austria, he says, having appealed to the world
to justify its conduct, the United States will
also make an appeal to the world in behalf Of
Capt. ingraham's conduct in saving Costa,
n 1t would seem, therefore, that each Of the FIVE
European powers had concluded to take ground
against the United States in regard to Costa.
But we apprehend no real collision of arms from
