- FATAL DIsGAsL,--Mc learn from the papers
that considerable alarm is felt by tho people in some
parts Of Chester county, Pa, on accoant of the de-
rclopmcn Of malignant and fatal disease in their
midst. The family Of Mr Hill, who recently moved
into West Chester and occupied n dwelling which
las been shut up for nearly two years. The house
was probably very unit to be tcnanted. although il
was whitc-wsshed before it was occupicd-and the
cellar is represented to have been foul. On Mon
day night Of last week all went to bed apparently in
the usual health on Tuesday four young daughters
aged eight ten, twelve aud fourteen wears, were
taken sick one died On Wednesday, another on
Thursday; ON Thursday they were buried in the
grave BY this time tho mother and auotl,r
boy were sicl-,hc mother unconscious The sud-
denness and yrulencc Of the disease very naturally
created quite shock TO the neghbors On Saur-
day four members Of the family were regarded as in
critical condition. On Sunday moruin. another Of
the children died. We understand The otlcr mem.
bcrs of the family were moved Sunday to another
house The family consisted Of iho mother. father
and eight children. Tho prcyalcn, opinion Is tAa,
the cause purely local Tho disease Is consilcl-
ed by bh2 scians, malignant typhoid feyc. although
i: is reported BY some, spotted lcyer.
