Ldtest from tHe FeUer District,
BALrInoRE, Sept 5-The Norfolk boat has ar
rived, bringing accounts Of che most hearlrenaine
nature. The fever appears to be on the increase
in that doomed city. AT the present rate Of NOR.
tality, but a few days more win decimate the pre-
sent remaining population, without some speedy
means be used to remove them at once.
The number Of deaths in Norfolk for the "a
hours ending Tuesday noon were sixty; and the
physicians report more new cases than during any
previous twenty -four hours. The deaths occur so
rapidly that collins cannot be procured sufficient
to bury all.
Private letters say that the people Of the two
cities are In great suffering for want Of food espe
cially bread and crackers That provisions are
not to he had even by those few who have the
money to pay for them.
The correspondent of the Associated Press il

still be left and in the midst Of your prosecutions

still wipe the death damp from the suffering brow,

ETGITYYES FROM LABOR.

The bill introduced into the Assembly, at AL.
bany, on the subject Of the proceedings to be
taken in the cne of persons held to service
or labor in other States of the Union, and
escaping into this, and which weprinted q. length
in Mondays paper, evidently proceeds upon the
assumption that the jurisdiction in those cases
belongs under the Constitution of the United
States, not to the General Government but to the
States, Individually. To that doctrine we fully
assent and that view of the true Interpretation
of the Constitution has the support of many Of
the most illustrious Of our juri,ts, among whom
may be reckoned Daniel Webster
The only, or the chief reason urged in favor of
the Jurisdiction of the United States is that il WA
assumed in 1898, BY the Fugitive Act Of that year,
At time when Congress contained many member,
