Our columns present rather mesgre appearance this
morning far reading matter is concerned. We could
not help IT, however Twothirds OF our cOmpostors are
eher down with the fever or their families afflicted
with The same terrible disease and for obtaining assist
ahce that is entirely out OF the question There's not
printer be hal 10 town either for love money. In
dererCh circumstances, only do our best ana pa
fieptiy and hopefully await the arrival of better times
Surely the terrible mortality and the dresdfay unfavora

TBE ErinTMc We are glad 20 see the Board of Health
proceed with energy to prescribe regulations for cleani
ness In the markets and for hnderng purified ma rs from
being exposed for sale ruSt those regulations viii be
enforce with rgor Discsiming all knowledge of the sci
ence Of chemistry the arts of medicine snd the means OF
dsin citing the atmospher where epd-mic has been
prevailing. may be permitted 10 rePsat what we have
heard about such subjects Men of great truth have as
sured us that they have known the firing OF cannon aud
the burning Of tar applied with strkipgy good elects in
in oirefu epdemcs in large cities Of Russia and India
We remember that in the hight OF the cholera OF 1852 sim
liar resOred 70 IN this city and mem
Der also that Immediately aiterward the masdy began
sensby TO subside We cannot say that this Was strictly
y case OF cause and effect Bat think It WAS such
case sud believe in the eff scy of these appliances
with Is much confidence as do in coch)un admins
tered for the govt Qunne for fever We respectfully
sabuit TO the Board Of Health that these exps nsntj
would be expensivethe cost would be nothing
than the price of the powder and the trpeaaps OF
afew psnes of glass in addition and the hazard OF some
old shaniees catching fire. il due precsuton be not used
from tbs burning tar barrels.
Since the foregoing lines in type, considerable
humber discharges Of have been made with what

have been fired in the center of the citynot in the out
