article on the yellow fever in Kings county, makes
the following remarks Y.sm .u-
We gave yesterday correct list Of all the deaths
by yellow fever in Kings county, reported up to the
3Oth of August numbering in all seventy -four persons
That account has opened the of the people to the
real facts Interference to the extent of the disease,
and it will tend rather to aay than increase the ex-
ctement, as it will be seen the disease is not nereas-
ing. Notwithstanding these undeniabe deaths by
this fearful disease studous efforts are still made
in quarters where the public have at least right to
expect full and reliable particuarsfor being fore
warned is torearmedto conceal the danger that not
only threatens Brooklyn, but New York and places
contagious or washed by tedwater It is particularly
necessary everything relative to the disease should be
made known, as it is upon us, and the stern reality
must be met, and ways and means provided to- if
possible, prevent its spreading beyond the limits
where confined. It is gradually creeping along
the waterfront of Brooklyn towards the East river
and has already been waited to Governors Island II
is but one step from there to New Yory city, and its
reaching this place is only question of time, unless
extraordinary efforts are made to stay its progress
Ask the Messrs. Church. They will invite you into
the Marine Hospital, and from among the sick and
dying there you will probably return with changed
views and cause accusing people OF being aarmists"
when they are only endeavOring to arouse the people
to sense of danger that threatens, unless there is
prompt vigorous action to bar it out.
If there yet remain any incredulous as to the ex-
istence of the "Black Jack" let them some fine
afternoon take ride to Fort Hamilton. Long before
that place is reached can be the effects of the
disease in deserted houses neglected flower gardens,
and ungathered crops. If this does not convince,
ride little further notice that this great thorougare
is almost entirely deserted, and you feel alone upon
it; but occasionally will be seen physciun passing
on an errand of mercy Ask him why almost every
human being seen on the route is dressed in mourning
If not yet satisfied, pass on to that usually crowded
place, Fort Hamilton; look at the untenanted houses
and deserted streets and avenues The people are all
gone, fled. Ride on until you in sight Of Fort

THE MOTHERS FIRST GRIEF.
She sits beside the cradle,
And her tears are streaming fast,
For she sees the present only,
While she thinks of all the past:
Of the days so full Of gladness,
When her first born's answering kiss
Thrilled her soul with such rapture
That it know no other bliss.
0 those happy, happy moments
They but deepen her despair,
For she bends above the cradle,
And her baby is not there
There arc words Of comfort spoken,
And the laden clouds of grief
Wear the smiling bow ofpromse,
And she feels a sad relief
But her wandering thoughts will wander,
Til they settle on the scene
Of the dark and silent chamber,
And of all that might have beenl
rOr llttle vacant Sarmenti
Or shining trcsS Of hair,
Tells her heart in tones of anguish,
That her baby is not there
She sits beside the cradle,
But her tears no longer flow,
For she sees blessed vision,
And forgets all earthly wo;
SANITY eyes look down upon her,
And the voice that hushed the sea
Stills her spirit with the whisper,
"S1ffer them to come to NO."
And while her soul is lifted
On the soaring wings of prayer,
Heavens crystal gates swing inward
And she sees her baby theroI
