YESTERDAY was another gloriously beautiful speei.
men of an Indian summer day. The delicate haze
which, under the rays OF undimmed sun, mellowed
the light and lent enchantment to the view" Of
distant Objects was nicely distributed or
oelter calculated to turn the heads of painters and
oshers who have eye for the beautiful in nature.
nut 70 many people 1t had no charm for the streets
were lhto'erabiy dusty, and complaints of empty els
'efns and scarcity of water were largely on the in
crease. The romantic beauty OF the Indian summer

OF one good dash Of rain.
ooAfD OF HEALTH.-By the report of this Board,
maze out yesterday the total interents in the city
cemeteries last week were 156. OF these, cases
were yellow fever and the nine were all from Charity
Hospital.
on inquiry at the Hospital, we find that these cases
were all men OF the reckless and drunken class from
the filthy precincts of Girod and St. Joseph streets
and ST. Mary's Market. There were three or four
other cases remaining in the Hospital and the
gradually lengthening intervals between the admis
sions seemed to show that the fever was running
| itself out; thing which must Of necessity take
place, under the present cool and bracing weather.
We have not heard of the first case Of yellow fever
in private practice This and the state Of the weather
is assurance enough that the fever has no intention
of spreading. The little touch Of it at the HOSPITAL
was forced into existence by the joint effects Of neg
ligence filth and intemperance, and those who NAV
feel inclined to get scared about it, or to run away on
account of it, will if they do co. become just subjects
Of public ridicule.
CoRREoTIos.-We stated, few days since, upon
what we deemed good authority, that Daniel Barry
now getting well of the wounds inflicted upon him
by Forbes and Lockwood, had expressed his desire
not to legally prosecute the men named preferring
to bde his time and take personal satisfaction in bis
own way. We are now informed that he denies
this; one of his friends calling upon US with the
denial He still states that he has no wish to prose.
cute; but denies that he ever had any desire to seek
personal satisfaction, or that he ever said anything
to that effect.
THE BASE BALL CLUBs.-The Melpomenia Club
had rousng game on Sunday. Woodin's side,
heretofore victorious, badly beaten. The follow.

BROWNSVILLE ArrAcKEp BY THE GUERRILLA

BROWNSVILLE ATTACKED BY THE GUERRILLAs.
SOUTHWEST PASS, Oct l0.-The New Orleans
steamship Arzona from Brazos St. 1ago, crossed the
Bar this morning at o'clock.
The Arizona brings news of Guerilla attack upon
the city Of Brownsville on the 2sth ultimo. The
Guerrlas broke open the Jail and released all the
prisoners. Five of the citizens were killed. The
Guerilas, about one hundred strong, were encamped
on the American side of the Rio Grande, threatening
to burn down the city. Two companies of Mexican
troops, from Matamoras, came over to protect the
city, and one quartered at Fort Brown from the flag
staff of which Mexican colors were flying
The citizens of Brownsville were in an intense state
of excitement, and most OF them were leaving for
Matamoras for protection. The mail from Laredo was
intercepted by the guerillas and cut open. An ex-
press has been sent to San Antonio for troops.

PRENTrc1ANA.-An Eastern newspaper has an en-
craving, representing Paul Morphy as beating the
devil at game of chess. We don't know whether
our old friend Mrs. Swisshelm has enough skill at
chess to checkmate the devil, but we are sure she
would mate him handsomely.
A complaint is made that the Administration 10
many cases employs unqualified naval officers. Some
of them, it is said, think that the magnetic needle
won't work without being threaded.
1t is said that Bill English was promised foreign
mission for his perfdy to the nti.Lecompton men.
Mr.. Buchanan, pay your Bill.
A Locofoco editor in Tennessee says that he will
labor to put down intemperance. 1t will be no labor
at all to him to put down liquor.
There is no way to prevent the Administration
from winkng at corruption except by cutting off its
eyelds.
A Boston mechanic has invented what he calls
Z" blowing machine" We wonder If it will beat that
which Of our neghbors has been using for the last
few years.
The editor Of the Eastern Argus gives notice that
he will keep watch on If the poor devil were to
presume to watch a pumpku.vine of our planting
it would probably run over him and twist itself
around his neck and choke him to death.
