THt yellow FEvER AT PoRTSMourH.-We re-
gret to see by the ficiatrepors the yellow fever
is slightly on the increase at Portsmouth, Va,
though it is said to be still confined to the section
of the town known as Gosport. For The "a hours
ending on Tuesday evening there were four new
cases aud four deaths; and for The "a hours end
lug on Friday evening, ten new cases and three
deaths. The Transcript says that subscriptions
are being taken up for the relief Of the sick.
The acting Mayor of New York on Saturday
issued his proclamation declaring both Norfolk and
Portsmouth 'infected places,' andrequiring every
vessel frou those ports subject to quarantine, un-
til the list of September next. Tbs Mayor says
he has reliable information that the yellow fever
prevails not only at Portsmouth but Norfolk also.
The Norfolk papers of Saturday, however, allege
that that city is not only exempt from the disease,
but enjoys unusually good health.
The President of the Bay Line of steamers from
this port to Norfolk and Portsmouth gives notice
that all communication has not been cut of, but
that no one residing in Gosport will be allowed to
come on board while the yellow fever prevails
there. Gosport is two miles distant from where
the boats land. One of the officers of the Board
of Health of that city accompanies each boat to
Norfolk and back.-Balt. Sun.

Our Put In.

The editor of tie Times, il his controversy with
the editors Of this paper has condescended to
make charge of violation of agreement as regards
Telegraph reports, against the prOpretors. We
have word or two to say in regard to this charge.
Some time early in June, we, with the otLer pub
lshersof the city, were notified that the then ex-
isting contracts r telegraph reports would termi-
nate on the LIST of July, the lines having fallen
under the control of the New York Associated
Press. Thelas week in June, the Agent of the
Association was this city, for the purpose of ar
ranging with the Press for reports. The price
fixed by him wssSls per week, at which rate the
proprietors oflhe Tunes and Gszette and Argus,
declined entering INTO an agreement. We agreed
with them that the price asked was exhorbitant,
but as we had always furnished our readers with
the very latest teIegraphIc news, and were still
de<irOus of doing 50. we were willing to consent
to this amount, aud desired our brethren of
the Press TO go in with us. They positively de-
clined to have any thing to do with it, at that
price, believing, as they said, it would make no
difference, whatever, on their circulation. As we
did not feel able to pay this sum ourselves, we
finally agreed to hold off for time, in expecta-
ton that the puce ofreports would thereby be re-
ducet. Now, that is the only agreement, we, (the
active proprietor of this paper,) ever made with
the propretors of the presses Of this city in regard
to telegraph. or any thing else In about a weeks
time, we received dispatch that the Associated
Press would supply the papers Of this city with
Telegraph fOr the sum ofsl4 per week. The pro-
prietors ofthe Times and Gazette and Argus de-
clined entering into an agreement at this reduce
ton, and we, believing that it was for the inte-
rest of readers in general, ond those the bu
siness walks of life in PARTICULAR, to have every
morning laid before them the latest telegraphic
news and markets, entered into the arrangement
by ourselves, and are now paying this heavy tax
for news; and we do it in violation of no agree
ment whatever. OF course the business men-the
commercial and manufacturing men-artizans-
railroad men-Steamboat men, hotels, and others,
will appreciate this anxiety n our part for their
interests, and will reward by their subscriptions
iOb-work. and advertising. We are determined,
while we aye engaged in the newspaper business,
10 print paper coming as near up to the stand
ard Of first rate sheet, as our means will permit
US to do, and as our friends increase in number,
and with our friends an increase o patronage, we
all that our prosperity will be layished up
on our paper, and if our enterprise drives our
neighbor Of the Times and Gazette to incur ex.
Spense to keep up with US, he need not get vexed
at US, but lay it to the requirements of the present
advanced age.

CARRIER PIoEoNs AND THE TELEGRAPH.-M Ma
NY Of the readers of newspapers who wake up in
the morning and find a column Of European news,
ready for their perusa, in the morning paper, the
steamer only having arrived the midnight before,
do not know the labor ands the enterprise which
are involved to procure this early transmission of
the steamer news. The associated press have
an agent for the arrival OF New York steamers at
the Sandy Hook light house. He has fifty carrier
pigeons, which are trained for the purpose ofcon-
veying news from the steamers TO the shore. A
man in open boat, in all kinds of weatherdro
along side of the steamer as she bears directly up
Sandy Hook. The news is thrown over in wa
ter tight can, and the news being taken out SIN
gle sheet is affixed to birds leg. The man then
gives the signal TO the bird, which raises his wings
and away he goes, with all his powers of locOmo-
ton, ina straight line for the office, going dis
lance of thres or four miles in as many minutes;
and, popping in at the window, is ,ecelved by the
agent, who transmits the intelligence over the wire
10 New York, Boston and Philadelphia, thence to
st. Louis, New Orleans, and all other parts of the
country, so that the news is frequently received
over large part of the United States, and pub
ished, before the steamer leaves quarantine.

described by an old sea captain: ~

REruRa OF THE JEws.-It is said that Sir Mo-
SEES Motefore, who lately passed through Vienna
on his way 10 Palestine, goes there 10 purchase
large district in the country, and to settle upon it
the Jewish paupers of jerusalem. Eventually his
purpose is to settle there also all those Jews who
feel inclined to return to the country of their an
cestOrs. This is, perhaps. the first practical effort
yet made at procuring return of that widely scat
tered race.

EsTNrESoF TIE LATE Hans WILSON AND WiPE.-
We made mention in yesterdays Herald, OF the
final settlement OF these estates involving the sum
originally. of ttDo hundred aud forty thousand dol
lars. The principal portion ofthis sum was claim
ed by virtue of certain provisions in the wills of
the deceased by Presbyterian Missionary Societies.
The validity Of one of the wills having been test
ed by of the heirs of the deceased, and decd-
ed in their favor, compromise las been brought
about between the dSputants, based upon the
following considerations. An agreement between
all parties, that the wills should be confirmed
that all legacies, except those donated to Mission
airy Societies, should be allowed-afler these are
satisfied, the remaining sum total, tro hundred and
ten thousand dOllaTS, is to be deyided into three
equal parts; to wi;:-Seventy thousa..d dollars to
the Missionary Socetes-seventy thousand dol
lars to the heirs of Hans Wilson, deceased-and
seventy thousand dollars 10 the heirs of Jane Will
