E0 REsloNATIoNs-we learn that some
eight or nine of the oaicets of the 18th
Virginia Regiment, who were paroled by
jenkins at the village of Spencer, on the
occasion of the surrender of Col. Rathboue,
and were afterwards ordered to report at
Champ Chase, have resigned.-Among the
number is Capt, Simpson, who y was in the
city yesterday. We understand that their
designations were rendered in consequence
of the disgrace which is conceived to at
tach to the regiment in Consequence of
Col. Rathboues surrender. Col. R. is now
at Camp Chase in command of regiment
of paroIed prisoners.

A LIBERAL MANUFACTURES

Mr.. fArEs-I understand that Mr. Jno. Mcdonald
of Concord n. c. has been very liberal since the COM
management of this He has made several liberal
subscriptions the Ladies' Aid Society aud 10 now
distributing SO bales of yarn poor soldiers wives
their husbands being in the army lighting for our
liberties and independence. He has given to the
people thirty thousand dollars in the way of prices
For instance, he selling yarn last week 81 per
bunch and A domestcs at 40 cents per yard-prices
here and other places being 81 per bunch for yarn
cent, just what Congress allows them charge profit
He has refused TO sell in large quantities specua-
tors, although he could sell all the yarn he makes
until the LIST of January at 81 and domestics 70
cents, but refuses to do He is rich man. but
a liberal and patriotic one.
If the Secretary Of War would instruct the Captains
and Qmartermasters to impress all the yarn cloth
leather and shoes in the hands of spectators and
manufacturers would very have army
clothed and shoes plenty for them. REX.

YELLOW FEvER-We learn from Extra from the
Wilmington Journal that there decrease in the
number of new cases and deaths last week.
The Journal remarks:
"If as sincerely trust the main Roadway of the
pestilence has been checked, begin to survey
the ground and arrive at some conclusion to the
dimensions Of the calamity. We heard it estimated
this morning that the number of would not vary
far from sixteen hundred, the number of deaths
far from four hundred, which would exhibit rate of
mortality equal to Is per cent of all those taken But
il be borne in mind that the disease existed here
causing unusual mortality, sometime before it was
pronounced yellow fever, and that it was moi until it
declared epidemic that any regular reports of the
number of cases was made by our Physicians. These
facts will exceed any detail of them that be made
from positive knowledge official reports
The Journal of the 3d. sayt:
Last night the coolest of the season, and to-
day the weather continues clear and bracng, with
temperature fully degrees lower than that of
terday, although still far from freezing.
Sixteen new cases are reported having occurred
yesterday This is the best report we have had for
many days, and accords with views expressed
yesterday. The number of interments yesterday at
the Cemetery was seven, which shows falling off in
the mortality. We hardly know how many coored
may have died yesterday, but feel certain that
there very few Not two at the falthest, if
that many We are getting to be more hopeful, but
yet have assurance of safety until have frost,
for which we look anxiously.'
