II The New York Times states that al
though efforts are made to conceal the facts, il
is unquestionable that yellow fever has found
Judgement on Long Island, and that at least
Fifty persons have died of it in New Utrecht
and vicinity alone. Many inhabitants have
fed panic stricken, and there are not well per
sons enough left to take care Of the sick The
mayor of Brooklyn has for some days kept an
extra police to prevent intercourse with the
infected district. Several cases have occurred
in Brooklyn. At the quarantine hospital the
number of cases is much diminished.
