SMALL Pox.-We learn daily in CONVEX
sation with friends from the country that
the most exaggerated rumOrs are continually
filing the air, in regard to the prevalence Of
smallpox in this city. The following note
from DR.. Marshal, our very efficient Health
officer and City Physician will show how ut
terly without foundation these reports are.
CLEvELAND, February 18th, 1854.
EDS. LEADER There has been ninety six
cases of smallpox and vareOloid reported to
the Board of Health by all the physicians
since the 26th of November, in compliance
with city ordinance requiring such report
under penalty of fifty dollars.
There have been seven deaths in the Small
Pox Hospital since tho 10Th of last April,
two of whom were diseased before being at
tackled by the small pox, and could have
lived but short time. There are many less
cases occurring now than in the fore part of
the winter. Persons need have no fear of
contracting the disease by visiting the city.
Vaccination renewed with fresh, reliable
matter, is sure preventive against small
pOx, There have been but few deaths in the
city from this disease.
I. Il. MARSHALL,
See'y. Of Board of Health, & City Physician.
