IN u
.Nessrs. Editors-While watching by the sick
beds of three in my family, an idea has arisen
before me which, if acted upon promptly, would.
no doubt, alleviate the suferngs of thousands
in our midst, even at the eleventh hour. When
we find that burning tar has done little or no
good towards removing the sickness from us, if
we find one system of treatment better than
another, it is our duty to make it known to all,
and am astonished that no ADLER pen has taken
pains to do so.
1t will be admitted by all that God has sent
this scourge, but he has also sent us the means
whereby we may conquer it, if we would but
use the means for the end
l would respectfully suggest to the Howard
Association that they lay out of their fund.
from two to five thousand dollars, for the fitting
up of an infrmary for the exclusive use of the
homeopathic physicians, so that they may have
a fair trial of their skill in curing the fever
Give them one hundred patients, and publish
the result | will venture to say that ninety
five would come out cured in four to five days
Why is it that the physicians do not try homeo-
pathy in the Charity Hospital 1t must be on
account of their great prejudice against it. II
| they would but try it for ten days, then all OF
| our drug stores might shut up, and the money
now expended in grave digging could be laid out
in furnishing every poor family with box Of
homeopathic medicine and a book treating on
| all diseases, especially one by Putty, which
| treats on Yellow Fever, and can be bought at
the books store of Thomas L. White If this was
carried out general scale, men might then
expect to live at least half the age Of their fore
fathers. Then let all hands take the fever.
apply the means Of cure, and the scourge is
robbed of its terrors, and the opening grave
will not come to the view of the patient as il
does now. | leave this subject with you, hoping
and praying for great reformation in the prac-
tice of medicine in our city and throughout the
land. The cause of suffering humanity demands
a change, and that speedily. Subscribe myself

TO #&sa'sS* BY ALEXANDER SMrH.
The broken moon lay in the autumn sky,
And lay at thy feet
You bent above me in the silence |
Could hear my wild heart beat
Ispoke my soul was full Of trembling fears
At what my words would bring
You raised your face. your eyes full Of tears,
As the sweet eyes Of Spring
You kissed me then worshipped at thy feet
Upon thy shadowy sod.
O. fool loved thee loved thee. lovely cheat
Better than Fame or God
My soulleaped up beneath thy timd kiss
What then to groaus,
Or pain death EartA was a round Of bliss.
Is5emed TO walk on thrones
And you were with me moug the rushin; wheels,
Mid Trades tumultuous Jars
And where to awe-struck wills the Night reveals
Her hollow CULTS Of stars
Before your window as before q shrine
I've knet 'moug dew-soakcd flowers
While distant music bells. with voices fine.
Measured the midnight hours.
There came a fearful moment l was pale,
You wrpt, and never spoke
Bat chung around me as the woodbine frail
Clings, pleading, round an oak.
Upon my wrong steadied up my soul.
And flung thse from myself
l spurned thy love as 'twere rich mans dole
1t my only wealth.
spurucd thee |. who loved thee, could have died,
That hoped to call thee Wife
And bear thee, gently smiling at my side,
Through all the shocks Of life
Too late thy fatal beauty and thy tears
Thy vows thy passionate breath
II meet thee not in Life, nor ia the spheres
Made visible by Death

THE YELLOW FEVER IN NoBuE-The inter-
ments in the city of Mobile for the "a hours end
ing at 6 o'clock P. N. on Saturday, the 9th
inst, were %, of which Il were of yellow fever
On the 26th the deaths were IA, of which 9 were
of yellow fever. The Advertiser of the 2Sth has
the following
The question, " Have we an epidemic amongst
us Y seems now to be pretty we'll settled in the
affirmative At the same time we feel justified
by facts in saying that, considering all the cir
cumstances, it is one of the mildest and least
malignant epidemics of the kind that has ever
been known The number of deaths, we are as
sured on the best authority, is small, in COM
parison to the number of cases conyalesced or
convalescent
We have no doubt that the admirable santa
ry regulations which have been adopted and en-.
forced by the Mayor and other city authorities
nave had much agency in checking the yiru-
lence of the disease Tie city is admitted to be
model of cleanliness, and ii there is any yir
tue In burning tar, the blazing bontires and
curling smoke, that nightly illumine our streets
anu perfume our breezes, must evolve it.
The Evening News of the 9th says;
Our absent citizens will see by the reports of
the Board of Health for the past two days, that
the prospects of our city for the next two months
are any 'hlng but hattering We are panied 20
oe Obliged to admit, that the disease is on the
increase, ct we hope for the best As far a.
we nave oeen able to learn, it is principally
confined to comparatively destitute portion Of
our population, although some Who hnve ayrr,,
comfort around them have been attacked ~ +
With ordinary prudence, speedy medical atfen-
tion, and good nursing, there is but little dancs,
from the disease. The warm weather If fSc
past three days and nights, seems, notwith.
standing the efforts made by our authorities ami
citizens to purify the atmosphere, to have in
creased the mortality as well us the number o.
new cases. There is yet room for the hone
however, that our city may be spared that de
gree OF mortality which is feared and predictu
by some That this hope may be realized, il
our ardent prayer.

New Books.--J. B. Morgan, Exchange Place,
has laid on our table q variety OF new and en-
PERTAINING publications Among them we note
"Narratiye of Journey round the World
comprising winter passage across the Andes
to Chill, with visit to the gold regions of Aus
tralia and California, the South Sea Islands,
hunting scenes in the Island of Java, and OBJ
servations on the remote and unknown regions
of the Empire of Japan. To follow the writer
through all the novel scenes described in his
book, and to participate with him in his perils
and pleasures, would furnish delights but little
inferior to those experienced by an actual par
ticipation in the events which he describes The
book can but be source of delight and instruc-
tion to all.
Another notable book among the list is the
seventh volume Of the poetical and dramatic
works Of Samuel Taylor Coleridge, comprising
some of the fiuest gems of that philosophic bard.
We have also No. II of g Bleak House. by
