The WASHINGTON PEsTrLEyCE.-Among the nu-
merous guests of the National Hotel, Washington dur
ing the late wholesale slaughter of rats by poisoning,
aid who were sufferers in common with Mr.. Buchanan
and hosts of others William w. Bacon snd wife
from New Haven, Conn.,. who left home in January, on
visit to New Orleans, Havana, &c. On their arrival
at Washington they stopped at the National, and on
the second day after their arrival, both were taken
suddenly and violently sick. MIR. B. soon partially
recovered, although occasionally afflicted ever since,
and although Mrs. b. was sick the entire route, they,
with much effort, succeeded in reaching Meole Ala,
where Mr.. Bacon has been confed to her bed for
more than month at the Battle House. She is visited
twice daily by two of the most skllfu physicians in
that city, who pronounce her recovery exceedingly
doubtful.
stu A6re-The attempt to attribute the several
deaths arr many sicknesses among the guests Of the
National Hotel at Washington, to masma, seems not to
be bone out by the symptoms CT those who have
suffered.
Among these are the Rev. Chas. H. Malcolm and
wife, OF Newport, X. /. Their symptoms indicate
aT'tne ,z intense thirst and burning IN the stomach
iDveterOte dianhea, vomiting after taking food, red
spots the surface of the abdomen, &c. Such, too
are said to have bten the symptoms Of those who
have died.

near the roof wac used except to supply the sleeping
apartments The water for cooking &C., seems TO
have come fiom a reservoir under ground
