THE FEVER RETURNS to the Board of Health yes
terday showed Al deaths for the twenty-four hours
ending Tuesday noon. The fever is once more to all
appearances, on a decline.
THE FIRE OF TUESDAY NIGHT.-The two build
ings to which we yesterday alluded as having been
gutted by fire the night BEFORE New Levee street.
between Lafayette and Girod were both unoccupied.
The fire started in the formerly called the Jack
son House, boarding place for sailors, but which
was about to be fitted up for oil factory by Mr. j.
/ A. Porter The fremen had much difficulty in pre-
venting the spread Of the flames to the neghboring
buildings, some of which were filed with liquors and
other things that make confagration terrible, A
third house had its roof burnt off, and the rear of
produce store, fronting Commerce street, was
badly scorched. The crying evil of fires nowadays
scarcity of water-was the chief difficulty Of the
fremen. The loss is estimated at about $4,000, The
oil factory was insured for $500 in the Union Office.
VICE VERsA.-we made mistake yesterday, in
our report Of Recorder Longs Court in stating that
Philip Mcclure was charged by Thomas Pgott with
feoniousy selling a hog-chain, etc, of the steamer
Herald, which he had in charge, The reverse was
the case Mcclure charged Pgott with the said of
fence, and had him arrested.
THAT CoUNrERPEIT LISEN-Among the victims
of the rascal who went about last week selling extra
fine cotton for linen, we learn, was one of our most
. prominent physicians, who purchased two pieces of
the stuff at SlI the piece. Like all the rest of the
victims the Doctor does not begrudge the money
spent as what he failed to acquire in linen he gained
in wisdom. The sharper must have sold out and re-
: tired speedily we have not heard of him since last
E. week He was a regular comet of sharper, who
e managed to come-it various good people who
: fancied themselves sharp enough for dry-goods
trade
Tue RAILROAD ACc1DEHT.-We yesterday alluded

7 Railroad on Tuesday evening, His name was Philip
