Malignant Disease.

This disease, of which we hear SO much in
the papers, during the past week, is undoubt-
eddy Diphtheria. 1t is the same disease that
prevailed as an epidemic in Albany, last fall.
and during the past year it has appeared in
several places in New England. We notice,
every week, deaths reported from sore
throat in Boston. These are probably from
diphtheria. There were eight cases of it i'll
this city. last fall; there were also two cases
during the last month; and there are " cases
in the city at the present time.
1t is not a new disease. \ book in rcla-
ton to it was published in New York more
than seventy years since. 1t is the same
disease that caused the death Of George Wash
ington. For several years past, it has pre-
vailed extensively, as an epidemic. in Eng
land and France, and the probability that it
NAV prevail here has attracted considerable
attention tp It.
The disease has already been described in
this paper, and the physicians in this city
are acquainted with its symptoms and treat
ment.
In q report Of III" Registrar General of
England, it is stated that the specific caus"
Of Diphtheria is the offensive odor from privy
vaults; probable that there are other causes;
but it is also probable that this may have
considerable influence in producing the dis
ease.-HariieRcs .IoWndt.

A Roanoke Middle.

Take half n pound of fat midiling bacon,
cut it in slices, then cut the slices INTO small
bits: put these bits into Il round bottomed pot
and set the pot over Il fire built near the
bank Of a river. Then take n one-sIiad rock
fish: scale him while futtering; cut him in
tolerably small pieces. Pour two quarts of
water into the pot. after the meat has fried
sufficiently to get the grease out. Put in the
fish. and set the pot on a brisk boil. Put in
salt and pepper to your taste. and by all
means. one pod red pepper. Stir while cook
ing; and Just before it is done, drop III Il few
sprigs of parsley. When thoroughly done,
take the pct from the fire, and place it con-
