Not YELLOW FEVER For sew
eral days past, says The New Orleans
Times. OF the ed inst, considerable
anxiet has been felt by persons cog
nizanty of the circumstances, in re-
gard to the following described af-
fair: Two sailors were taken i'll at
this port and sent to the Charity
Hospital for medical attendance. The
symptoms of their illness developed
into an alarming resemblance to vel
low fever. The physicians who ex-
amined the men, pronounced the dis
ease yellow fever, and this belief pre-
vailed until Tuesday last, when one
of the patients died, and the ailment
of the other took a favorable turn
and he is now recovering. The body
of the deceased sailor was carefully
diSSected, and after thorough exam
inatiOn into the whole matter a num-
Der of our most renowned disciples
of -EsculapiuS have decided that the
complaint with which the men were
stricken was and is not yellow fever
at all Over which fact we rejoice
in common with all who desire the
Crescent City to prosper.
We learn from Collector Kellogg
that the arrangements are all per
fected for an evacuation, by the
Freedmen's Bureau, of one wing of
the Marine Hospital, to be used by
the Charity Hospital Board of Ply
sicians in case their own building be-
comes too crowded to accommodate
the marine patients.

CORRESPONDENCE.
From Southern Illinois.


GRANVILLE, Ills, Nov. 18th, '66.
Editors Journal:
A little inquiry assures me that the
farmers hereabout may safely indulge
in good spirits as regards their pres
ent and prospective crops.
Corn is abundant. The amount de-
stroyed by the overflow Of the Wa
bash this Fall, though amounting in
the aggregate to considerable, is not
enough to interfere with supply or
prices; and the corn raised here is
number one.
The late potatoe crop has turned
out abundantly. better, by far, than
usual, and prices are correspondingly
reduced. Best quality are selling
here at 80 cents bushel.
A very large breadth of wheat has
been sown in this region, and l am
told that, very generally, it looks
beautiful. In a very few cases the
NY has appeared and slightly damaged
the young wheat, but, unless it safely
winters, and commences its ravages
next Spring, the crop of wheat will be
great. 500
Our farmers, generally, have taken
advantage of the fine weather We have
enjoyed this Fall, and are prepared
for the chilly blasts of the coming
winter.
Business is pretty fair, and we are
beginning to wonder if it will be very
long before we can jump on the cars
and visit your city, running over the
extension Of the GRANVILLE and Mat

BABY CASTLE.

Baby owns tiny castle
On the carpet-plains Of home,
Aud its walls are woven willow,
Fine within, from floor TO dome;
Snowy curtains at the window;
Downy couch where baby dream5'
Laecs, too that softly glimmer
In the sunlight..s golden beams
That's the heritage Of baby,
And its held in state 50 g.ahu'
Mother says-if no one eioe ~ :,
.. Hes the king Of Baby-land.
Here he bravely fights his battles,
when old puss would slyly creep
o,a- Guarded IgloaL and turret,
lust 70 curl herself In sleep.
All f. still in baby's castle,
Not the slightest noise we make;
Surely, noU the rogue is mapping;
Peep the blue eyes wide awake,
Ses the dimplsd arms are round MS;
Hear the cooling" mild and low;
May the angels keep you, darling,
Everywhere your feet may go!
Baby's man-at-arms is mother,
And she watches all day long:
When his babyship would slulnber,
Then she sings a loving song.
Soon comes "papa" home at evening,
Storms the castle all sOg gay,
Makes prisoner Of baby,
Bears him joyfully awayl

In 1867 the proverb which says that
"All roads lead to Rome 20 will be liter
ally applicable, as the railway lines all
arrive there. Thus, besides the line from
Ancona to Rome, which will be finished in
three or four months, Florence will also
be connected with the Eternal City by the
Aarezzo line, which runs to Perugia, and
by the Siena one, which crosses the Appe-
mines to Ficulla. From Leghorn, rail-

WHEAT TRADE OF MINNESOTA. - Our
previous statement exhibited the amount
shipped from all points in this State on
the Minnesota and Mississippi rivers ex
cept La Crescent, making a total of
8,012, sos bushels. Add Mr.. Huntoons
estimate of 100000 bushels for Washing
ton county, not previously included, and
we have total of 8,112,565 bushels
shipped from Minnesota during the season
of navigation in 1865. The large amount
of Minnesota wheat shipped from Iowa
ports would swell this amount to 100000
bushels.
This is pretty good showing for q

which in 1859 only began to produce a
surplus.-,St. Paul Press.

INCIDENT OF THE WAR.-During the severe
bombardment Of Atlanta, q lieutenant of one
of the Alabama regiments was surveying the
lines, accompanied by two privates. Sud-
denly the well-known cry of "mind the
shell " is heard, but rather too late, and, as
the shell struck the parapet, the lieutenant
and his two men jumped in one of the rife
pits On the other side of the parapet, but
had hardly reached that place Of fancied se-
curity when another cry is heard "Lieu-
tenant, mind the SHE'LL" as tire shell bounded
from the parapet into the very pit where our
three men were squatting. At that moment
one Of the privates, who was over his lieu
tenant, seeing the death dealing missile
reaching its exploding point, extended his
arms over his officer and murmured, /" Lieu
tenant, we are gone, but | can save you"
These were his last words. The shell burst.
one Of the privates had leg shattered, and
the lieutenant held in his arms the mutilated
body of the ether, whose death had saved
his life.

A STRANGE STORY is told of two sisters at
Berlin. About three years ago one of these
young ladies was engaged to be married but
on the bridal morning became so i'll that she
could not possibly go to church. The bride.
groom was a desirable one, and he was
fish who, it seems had not been easily hooked.
There was, therefore, great danger in delay,
so instead Of postponing the marriage the
second sister, covering herself in long veil,
personated the first, and duly went through
the ceremony, The moment it was over she
transferred the bridal dress and ornaments
to her sister, who was thus considered to
have all proper claim to this husband she
married by proxy. 1t is only recently that
discovery has been made of the real facts,
and proceedings are about TO be commenced
not only in the civil, but also in the criminal
courts of Berlin.
