Nothing OF particular note had uanspred in the
Teritry, ana the Ne1cs is consequently barren OF
Dythng like intelligence, beyond the fact that toe
smallpox was spreading 10 the Territory, aud great
tears entertained that panic would be pro-
duced among he people in Consequence. Tue Pre-
sidency had issued tue iollo ring proclamaton:-
nee our former article under the abJye head,

la Matthews camp haze had the small pox-psing
all IN that pany, with one exception, liable to
have that disease, aa1 that thirty persons oIt
SIDE the camp have suffered by the contagion,
though most OF the have fortunately beea Of
mild type. These facts prove that the necessity
tied for the stringent advice In former articles
and still many 90 be careless concerning the
further spread OF q disease which SO often proves
atai, and some even visit dxellings IN whica 1t is
known TO exist ana then recklesslY visit those who
