The angels Of Sleep and Death, locked
arm IN ann, wandered over the earth. Tt
was evening" They fid themselves down
upoI Ioity hill that overlooked The haLita-
tions Of mani a mourharl Stiffness rcigued
around, broken only by the evening bells,
whose sound came family from tic distant
hamlet. Silent and SPECIFICS as IS theif
won't, these benefcent guardian angels of
mankind, lay in close Embrace TIL nights
dark mantle fell around them. Theh the an-
gel of Sleep rose from his mostly eotcl, and
scattered with noiseless hand tie invisible
seeds of slumber. The evening wind carried
them To the silent dwellings Of the weary
husbandman. Soon sweet sleep enfolded In
its gentle embrace the inmates Of the rural
cot;ages-irom the gray haired sire, whose
tottering steps a STAFF supports, to lhe infant
in lis cradle. The sick forgot bis plius. tile
mourner bis sorrow, The poor his cares. All
ewes were closed. lis atsk being finished,
ihis benevolent Angel again lay down BY his
sterner LrOthc IS side. 'When morning

The Auge Of slumber. Tie Angel Of Death
gazed upon linn ia silentsadness, while fears,
such as immorlals weep, stood i'll his large
dark eyes. "Ah p said he, "would that i

Public Meeting.

According to notice, our citizens met at
The Court House this evening at o'clock, te
take some action upon the report of Yellow
Fever being at Vicksburg. Whereupon G.
w. Dougharty was called to the chair, who
in few very appropriate remorks explained
The objects Of the meeting, when the foilow-
ing preamble and resolutions were adopted :
WHEREAS, we are advised of the pieva-
lenee of Yellow Fever in the City of Vicks
burg; and whereas, the communication be-
tween This place aud that is so immediate and
direct, that although our TOW is now blessed
with unusual good health, yet we believe
precaution is the parent of safety. BE it
therefore
Resolced, That the Town Council be re-
quested to establish quarantine at some
point not less than two miles below this
place and that no Boat be permitted to enter
the port until ai.er remaining in quarantine
ten days aud that the crew and passengers Of
such boat be prevented from entering our
City for that space of time.
Resolced, That if in the opinion OF The
Board of Town Council the establishment of
quarantine be unnecessary, that said Board
be respectfully requested to consider whe ''er
it would not he prudent to require the health
officers of Yazoo City to go on board Of all
steamboats, coming up 70 Yazoo City, TO ex-
anime health on board The same, aud if there
be yellow fever on board to notify the cap
tain of said boat not TO proceed fu. her under
penalty to be fixed by said Board.
RcsolVed, That The Town Council be re
quested 70 appoint Boald Of Health, com
posed Of the Physicians OF the place TO ex-
anime all cases OF sickness now in the city,
aud all that may occur from day 10 day and
report, i there should be any Yellow Fever
cases, 10 The Mayor, who is hereby requested
10 publish the same.
Eosolrcd, That Committee OF six be az
poiuted to wait on The members 70 Che Board
and il~nish them VIII copy of these Eeso-
lutions.
The following c ommi,see were appointed
by the chair, namely,
S. NJ. Phillips, ]. G. Young,
nj. ID. Haynes, James Iharp,
C. Ho!lingsworih, and Peter E. Cook.
Rcsolocd, That the proceedings Of ibis
meeting be published in the Yazoo Demo
crat, Yazoo City Wing and the Spectator.
