time to time. The latest which have come to our
knowledge those of two Germans, on Newton
street, which both terminated fatally-one on we'd
nesday last and the other yesterday. These, we
are informed by the intelligent who attended
them were the genuine African fever and both vio-
lent cases. We mention them by way of caution to
those of our citizens who have recently returned,
that they may be careful not to expose themselves
more particularly to the night air. or in the suburbs.
