The Yellow Fever Plot.


The plot to introduce yellow fever into
New York and other Northern cities by
means of infected clothing, proves to have
baen more nearly successful than the pub
lie were led to believe from the first re-
ports. DR.. Blackburn, the alleged prin-
cipal in this diabolical scheme, was ar
rested in Canada and examined upon these
charges on Wednesday last. One of the
witnesses, Godfrey J. Pyams, testified that
he made an engagement with Blackburn
to take eight trunks and a valise, filled
with clothing, from Halifax to Boston, for
the purpose of selling a part of them in
that city and distributing the rest in New
York, Washington and other Northern
cities. This clothing had been infected
with yellow fever by Blackburn, at some
point in the South and shipped to Halifax
for the purpose of sending it thence into
our leading cities to spread the contagion.
Hyams actually performed his part in this
nefarious plot. He took the clothing TO
Boston. and finally caused portions of it
to be sold in Washington, Norfolk and
Newborn, with the admitted design OF
spreading yellow fever among our soldiers
and citizens. From some cause yet unex-
planned. the plot proved successful only so
far as Newbern was concerned. The fever
broke out there, and its ravages are not
yet forgotten. The evidence of Hyams
strongly duplicates Thompson, Clay. Hol-
comb, and other leading rebel emissaries,
of completely in this conspiracy, some OF
whom furnished him with money to carry
out the plot. If this testimony is truthful,
and we see no cause for d~iscredlting it, it
reveals the most fendish scheme yet de-
veloped in the interest of the rebellion. 1t
is a fitting parallel to the assassination
plot, and brands the leading rebels who
were accessory to it, as shown by the
evidence, with lasting infamy. As the
viper emits its venom in the death struggle,
so the rebellion exhibits its virus in the
last act.
