As there are rumors uil"at as to the cau-r Of 81,
many cases OF sickness occurring at W;n,n>tnn
on the morning after the Costume Ball, il may
DC well TO state the fncs in relation thereto as
Tar as we have been able to obtain them from
the prophet, ors:
1T seems that cigh; whites and tho same mum
ber Of blacks were taken sick ON the morn,ur
of the 18th. They all seem to have been affected
very much alike though some suffered more than
others. Most of them entirely recovered in few
days, not being more affected than they would
ordinarily have been under an attack of Cholera

tel and worthy citizen OF our District, had been
fnr some time in bad health, before his vis. to
"illhnislon. We believe hc had been there but
tw" days. We saw him on Tuesday evening !;
he was then complaining Of gripping in his sto,n-
acii-sad that he had eaten II very hearty din
hcr and had finished his meal by eating some
muskmcl'on, aud thought it was that that had
affected his stom ,ch. On Tuesday night :lr,u,
lo "'clo"k, he was taken very i'll, came to this
place on "Wednesday morning, AMI died nn Sun
day morning following. We learn that it is the
opinion Of the two attending physician. that ii
was not Il poison which caused his death.
This. and the h.ath of L"r;s II i'roc hoy, are

but 10y ii's obstinate refusal to put himself under
